Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 42 Missing designs
Aubrey's pov ;I stormed through the office doors, my heart thundering in my chest. The sun had barely risen, but I couldn't wait another second. My designs, the ones I had poured my heart and soul into, were gone.And the wedding—the wedding of the year—was just days away."Sophia!" I called out the moment I entered. She was waiting for me by the reception desk, her face pale and anxious."Aubrey, I'm so sorry—""How could this happen?" I cut her off, my voice sharp and frantic. "How could the designs just go missing?""I don't know," she said, wringing her hands together, "but I've checked everywhere—""Clearly not everywhere!" My tone was harsher than I intended, but I couldn't help it. The panic had wrapped itself around me like a vice, tightening with every second that ticked by.She flinched but held her ground. "I did check. We've searched all the offices, the archives, the backup files—everything's been wiped clean. I even tried restoring old files from last week, but they're

Dr. Li gave me a warm smile and confirmed the news: I was pregnant.I was stunned. My husband Ryder and I had been using contraception. He had emphasized multiple times that he didn't want a child.My mind was in a whirl, but happiness took the dominant position. I had always dreamed of becoming a mother. I believed this was fate's arrangement.I had to protect my child, whether my husband Ryder allowed it or not."Is something wrong? You don't seem very excited..." the doctor asked in puzzlement. I shook my head and told her I was just too shocked. I looked forward to being a mother more than anyone."That's wonderful, Mrs. At your next checkup, I suggest allowing your husband to accompany you. You know, with the father's involvement, the fetus will behave very obediently," the doctor suggested with a smile.I nodded and smiled as I said goodbye to the doctor.In the car, I wasn't sure about Ryder's attitude. In fact, our marriage was not like that of a traditionally happy couple.My

Aubrey's pov :"Should I let you know about the settlement amount?"The lawyer explained the settlement amount, droning on about assets and finances."I don't want anything from him," I refused emotionlessly.The lawyer raised an eyebrow. "Are you sure? You're entitled to half of his assets, including the house and investments."I shook my head. I have my own company, one that I run with my best friend, Sophia. As the heir, I received it as my share. I have enough money to take care of myself and my child.The lawyer nodded. "Very well, then. Let's finalise the papers."The next day, Sophia arrived at my doorstep, looking every bit the classy lady she was. Her long, curly brown hair cascaded down her back, and her bright green eyes shined. She wore a tailored white pantsuit, her heels clicking on the floor as she rushed to my side."Aubrey, darling!" she exclaimed, enveloping me in a tight hug.I burst into tears, allowing myself to release the emotions I'd been holding back. She comf

Aubrey's pov ;I was having fun, laughing and joking with Alex and Sophia, but I was cautious. My pregnancy was still a secret, and I didn't want to risk anything. They dragged me to dance, and I obliged, but only for a little while. I didn't want to overexert myself.When they offered me a drink, I declined, citing a headache. They teased me for it but I just smiled and changed the subject. I wanted to share my happy news with them, but not yet. The last seven days had been deeply stressful for me and I wasn't ready to open up yet.Sophia playfully nudged me while whispering, "Hey, Rey, I think that guy is checking you out."I snapped back to reality and followed her gaze. The man staring at me was handsome, with a charming smile, but he wasn't Ryder. I hated myself for even thinking of him.The man caught my eye and smiled, but I quickly looked away, signalling him that I wasn't interested. I didn't want to encourage him or lead him on. I just wanted to enjoy my night with my friend

Aubrey's pov ;I didn't expect much for the next few days. I didn't go back to that scumbag, and I didn't feel afraid of his warnings either. Every time I thought about him, I felt angry and confused. Why was he so desperate to make me go back to him when he was the one who cheated on me? It didn't make any sense.His betrayal still hurts very much, like a fresh wound that refused to heal. I had given him everything—my trust, my love, my time. And he threw it all away for some cheap fling. Now he had the audacity to act like I was the one who needed to come crawling back? It was infuriating.I replayed our last conversation over and over in my mind, trying to find some hidden meaning or clue that might explain his behaviour. But there was nothing.The more I thought about it, the more I realised that he was just trying to threaten me. He didn't want me back because he loved me. He wanted me back because he couldn't stand the idea of me moving on and being happy without him. It was all

Aubrey's POV :I didn't bother knocking. The door slammed behind me as I barged into Ryder's house—our house, though it felt anything but mine now. My heart pounded, fueled by fury, exhaustion, and a deep, bone-crushing frustration that had built up over weeks. I stormed through the hallway until I found him in the bedroom, casually pulling a shirt over his head.He glanced at me, a smirk instantly curling his lips. That arrogant, infuriating smirk that always made me want to slap it right off his face."Something on your mind, Aubrey?" His tone was mocking, like he knew exactly what I was about to say.I clenched my fists, the words tumbling out before I could stop them. "Why did you do it, Ryder?"His smirk widened. "You'll have to be more specific, darling."I took a step closer, my anger pushing me forward. "Don't play dumb with me, Ryder. You know exactly what I'm talking about."He didn't even blink. Instead, he stepped closer, closing the gap between us. His hand shot out, fing

Aubrey's pov ;Next day, I hastily packed a few essential things and rushed to Sophia's house with my heart racing with apprehension.Once we were inside, I collapsed onto her couch, feeling utterly exhausted from replaying everything over and over again in my head. Sophia disappeared into the kitchen and returned with a glass of water."Here, drink this and relax," she said softly, taking a seat next to me and rubbing my back. "You need to stay hydrated, especially now."I took a small sip, feeling the cool water soothe my dry throat. Sophia placed a comforting hand on my shoulder. "I can't believe this," she fumed angrily. "That bastard Ryder has no right to do this to you. How could he stoop so low?"Tears welled up in my eyes again as the pain and betrayal washed over me anew. "I don't know," I whispered brokenly. "He's trying to ruin my life, Sophia. I just don't understand why he's doing this. Why can't he just leave me alone?"She cursed under her breath before speaking again i

Aubrey's pov ;I collapsed onto the couch, drenched in sweat and panting heavily. The pressure of his threats and the upheaval of the evening felt almost suffocating. Closing my eyes, I focused on slowing my breathing and calming my racing heart.With a shaky breath, I leaned back when Sophia's voice cut through the haze of my thoughts. "Aubrey, are you okay? What happened?"She rushed into the living room and pulled me into a tight hug, her eyes scanning my face for any signs of injury."I just saw Ryder existing through the hallways. Why was he here? Did he do something to you?" She asked worriedly.I could barely manage a shake of my head, my throat closing up. I was too overwhelmed to speak, my whole body was trembling.Sophia's concern deepened as she felt my forehead. "You're sweating so much. We need to get you to the doctor.""I'm fine," I tried to protest weakly, but Sophia wasn't having any of it."No, you're not fine," she said firmly, already pulling me toward the door. "W

Aubrey's pov ;I was stirring the sauce, the aroma of garlic and herbs filling my kitchen when the doorbell rang. I frowned, glancing at the clock. It was late, and I wasn't expecting anyone.My first thought was Ryder, but he knew the passcode to my house. Why would he be playing games by ringing the bell?The doorbell rang again, this time more urgently.I groaned, wiping my hands on a dish towel. "What the hell, Ryder?" I muttered under my breath. He really knew how to get on my nerves. I cursed him as I made my way to the door, ready to give him a piece of my mind for being annoying.But when I pulled the door open, it wasn't Ryder.I blinked, surprised. Standing on my doorstep, looking as regal and furious as ever, was my mother.Her eyes immediately narrowed at the sight of me. "Why did you do it?" she demanded, stepping inside without waiting for an invitation.I closed the door behind her and turned to face her with a raised brow. "Do what, exactly?" I asked, leaning casually
Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 40 Recordings and plans
Aubrey's pov ;Ryder's voice rang out just as I turned to leave. "Now that you've got what you wanted, don't forget—when the time comes, you'll need to help me too."I paused and glanced back at him, a smile curling on my lips. "Of course. I always keep my promises."He grinned and gestured toward the chair in front of him. "Why don't we discuss the plan again? Since you're so happy today, I want to make sure you do exactly what I need at that dinner party."I raised an eyebrow but walked back to the chair, sitting down and crossing my legs. He leaned forward, his eyes locking with mine, a confident smirk playing on his lips. It was clear he'd already thought this through."We need to make it believable," he began, leaning his elbows on the desk as he continued to study my expression. "At the dinner, you'll stay close to me. No wandering off, no aloof behavior. Davidson needs to believe we're a perfect couple, head over heels for each other. Hand in hand the entire time, like we can't
Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 39 Miss Ruthless
Aubrey's pov ;The week had flown by like a gust of wind. I barely had time to blink, let alone breathe, with the workload that had been thrown at me.Between handling my own company, overseeing the progress of my father's soon-to-be-former company, and preparing for the clients' wedding pieces, I was moving at full speed—nonstop.The wedding necklaces were one of the most significant projects I had ever undertaken.Every single design was intricately unique, each piece handcrafted with rare gems and delicate metals, with the kind of precision that demanded hours of concentration. The stakes were sky-high, both financially and reputation-wise.I was paying an enormous amount upfront to secure the finest materials—diamonds that glittered like stars, emeralds with deep, mesmerising green hues, and sapphires so blue they could rival the ocean. And not just the gems, but the skilled artisans I had hired were the best in the world, working in secret to protect the designs from being leaked
Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 38 Genuinely apologising
Aubrey's pov ;I leaned back in my chair, taking a sip of water while watching Alana work. The steady hum of productivity in the office was almost calming—until Sophia knocked softly on the door and poked her head inside."How's the work on the designs going?" I asked, my eyes scanning the reports on my desk.Sophia stepped in, closing the door behind her. "It's coming along well," she said. "The clients will be here in a few days to finalise everything, and once we get their approval, we'll start working on the production. We're on track."I nodded, feeling a sense of satisfaction settle in my chest. "Good. Everything must be perfect."Sophia smiled. "Of course. We've got it covered."Just then, the door creaked open again, and my mood soured instantly as Hampton strolled in, a grin plastered across his face. The air in the room shifted, and I could already feel the weight of his greed before he even said a word."I heard you guys scored a really big order," Hampton said, his voice o
Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 37 Perverted bastard!
—------Ryder's pov—-----I'm lying here, trying to get comfortable on this damn couch, but it's impossible. She can afford a huge house with countless rooms, yet she can't seem to buy a decent-sized couch.I shifted for the hundredth time, my legs hanging off the edge, and groaned. How the hell is she able to sleep so peacefully upstairs while I'm down here struggling?I couldn't take it anymore. I stood up, the stiffness in my back making me wince. Stomping up the stairs, I knocked on her bedroom door.No response.Maybe she's asleep. Of course, she is—probably sprawled out on that giant, comfortable bed, while I'm down here practically folded in half. The thought made me groan in frustration.I knocked again, harder this time. Still no response. Screw it.I unlocked the door, stepping inside and feeling the warmth of her room hit me immediately. The faint smell of her perfume lingered in the air—soft and floral, like her. I barely had a second to take in the room when the bathroom d
Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 36 Fine, I'll be your doting wife
—-------Aubrey's pov—-----When I walked through the front door after a long day, I was greeted by the unsettling sight of Ryder lounging on the couch like he had been waiting for me all day. Great. Just what I needed.Ignoring him, I made a beeline for the kitchen and grabbed a glass of water, hoping that maybe he'd take the hint and leave me alone. But, of course, that was too much to ask.He followed me into the kitchen like a lost puppy, grabbing his own glass of water, mimicking my every move. I could feel his presence behind me, and the sound of him drinking water somehow irritated me even more. It was like I was being shadowed by an obnoxious echo.I walked back to the living room and flopped down on the couch, turning on the TV to drown out his existence. But before I could even get comfortable, he came and plopped down right next to me, his gaze focused on me instead of the screen.I frowned, biting the inside of my cheek to keep from snapping. Seriously?I sighed, deciding t
Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 35 They will all pay.
—------Aubrey's pov—------As I sat across from Sophia, cutting the nth call from Ryder, I let out an exasperated sigh. "Doesn't he have work to do? Why does he keep calling me?"Sophia chuckled, shaking her head. "Maybe he just misses you."I rolled my eyes, biting into my lunch. "Miss me? Yeah, right."His sudden clinginess is starting to get on my nerves. We were supposed to be estranged, yet here he was acting like a dog. I didn't have time for this.We finished lunch and started making our way out of the restaurant when I accidentally bumped into someone. Instinctively, I began to apologise, but the moment I heard the familiar, nasal voice complaining, my words froze in my throat."Oh, great! Look at this, you ruined my expensive dress!" the woman hissed, her voice dripping with irritation.I looked up, and there they were—my mother and sister, Sage, both standing in front of me with matching expressions of shock. The same faces that had haunted me for years, faces that were as c
Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 34 She's like a wild animal
*******Ryder's pov*******The moment I woke up, I knew something was wrong. The house was empty—Aubrey was already gone.The thought pissed me off, but I pushed it aside and got myself ready for the day, trying to shove down the annoyance that had been building up since last night.By the time I made it to the office, my head was still full of questions. Where the hell did she go this early? Who was this mysterious friend she kept mentioning? Not that I was jealous or anything—don't be ridiculous.She's my wife, and she belongs to me, that's all. She has no right to be running around doing whatever the hell she wants. If anyone gets to screw up this marriage, it's going to be me, not her.I was greeted by Victoria as soon as I walked in. "Mr. Stone, the client for the billion-dollar deal is here. He's in your office waiting for you."Great. The last thing I needed was to pretend to care about some billionaire's obsession with family values and charity work. But a deal's a deal, and th
