Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 53 Why is everyone is on her side?
Sage's pov :The man named Gregoty's sudden appearance caught me off guard, but I quickly realised he could be useful in my plan.That was until he turned his attention to Aubrey, his tone filled with concern. "Aubrey, what's the matter? Is everything alright?"How did he know her?Before she could respond, Ryder cut in, his voice laced with suspicion. "Do you two know each other?" His eyes narrowed as he glanced between them, trying to piece something together.Aubrey met his gaze with that infuriatingly cold expression she always wore around him. "He's a friend of mine," she said simply, as if that should explain everything.The way she said it made me grit my teeth—what kind of "friend" exactly?She turned back to Gregory, brushing off Ryder's question like it was nothing. "It's nothing to worry about, Gregory. Everything's fine."But it wasn't fine. I could feel the tension building as both men stared each other down, as if they were ready to go at it right there in the middle of

Aubrey's pov ;When I got home, the first thing I noticed was that Ryder wasn't anywhere in sight. Figures. He was probably off with Sage, comforting her and tending to her every whim.Humph! The thought alone was enough to sour my mood further. I was exhausted, and all I wanted was some peace and quiet.After grabbing myself a glass of water, I headed upstairs with the shopping bags in hand. The dresses were beautiful, sure, but the day had taken a lot out of me, and I just wanted to put everything away and get some rest.But as I turned the corner to my room, I was suddenly yanked into a guest room. I let out a surprised yelp, my heart racing as I tried to catch my balance. Before I knew it, I was pinned against the wall, and the familiar scent of cologne hit my nose.Ryder. Of course.He leaned in close, his voice low and almost teasing. "How was the shopping, Aubrey?"I glared up at him, trying to ignore the flutter in my stomach at his proximity. "Would've been better without all

Aubrey's pov ;I walked toward the car, my heels clicking sharply against the pavement. I could hear Ryder's footsteps trailing behind me, his presence as unavoidable as ever. Just as I reached for the car door, he spoke up again."So, about that dress..." he began, his tone annoyingly casual.I whipped around to glare at him, my patience wearing thin. "Why do you care about my dress, Ryder? It's my choice what I wear."He shrugged, but there was a faint smirk tugging at the corners of his mouth. "I'm just saying, it's a bit…distracting.""Distracting?" I scoffed, crossing my arms. "Well, that's your problem, not mine. I'm wearing this because I like it, not to impress you."He raised an eyebrow, as if challenging me. "If you say so."After a moment, I rolled my eyes and turned back to the car, sliding into the passenger seat. Ryder climbed in beside me, settling behind the wheel. As we pulled out of the driveway, he glanced over at me."Do you remember what you have to do once we get

Aubrey's pov ;Soft music played as a group of children walked onto the stage, their eyes wandered around the guests.They were orphans, but they smiled brightly as they looked out at the room full of people who, they believed, were there to help them. My heart squeezed painfully in my chest as I watched them.Davidson approached Ryder and me, beaming. "You two have such kind hearts," he said, smiling widely. "I'm glad to say, I'll be sealing the deal with you, Ryder. I know this partnership will be a great opportunity for these kids."Kind. The word echoed in my mind, and I could barely force a smile. Davidson's words felt like knives. Am I really going to betray these innocent children? The guilt was suffocating me.One by one, the kids made their way around the room, shaking hands with the guests. When they reached us, their small hands reached out, and I took them, feeling their tiny fingers wrap around mine.Their faces lit up with big, innocent smiles, and one of them, a little

Aubrey's pov ;Ryder just stood there, silent as a tomb, his eyes locked onto mine. The whole room seemed to hold its breath, waiting for the inevitable explosion.Davidson's gaze bore into Ryder, demanding an explanation, but all I could focus on was the tension hanging between Ryder and me.This was it. This was the moment I had been working toward, the culmination of my revenge.Ryder was exposed, his dirty little scheme revealed to the very man he was trying to deceive. The deal was as good as dead. Davidson would break off all ties, and Ryder's reputation would take a hit that would be hard to recover from.So why wasn't I feeling the satisfaction I should be?I could feel my heart pounding in my chest, my palms slick with sweat. I should be reveling in this victory, basking in the sweet taste of revenge. But instead, all I felt was a gnawing unease deep in my gut, twisting and turning until it made me almost sick.Why wasn't I happy? Why wasn't I savouring the look of betrayal o

Aubrey's pov ;The ride back to the house was suffocatingly silent. Not a single word passed between us.I kept glancing at Ryder, waiting for him to say something—anything—but he just stared straight ahead, his face unreadable. I couldn't stand the quiet, but I also didn't have the nerve to break it. My heart was pounding in my chest, a mix of frustration and something I refused to name.When we finally pulled up to the house, Ryder parked the car with a sharp jerk, then got out, slamming the door so hard it made me flinch.The sound echoed in the night, and for a moment, I just sat there, stunned. What the hell is his problem? He's supposed to be angry, shouting, and questioning me. Instead, he is…silent. The calmness that should have been a relief only made me more uneasy.I got out of the car and hurried after him, frowning as I watched his retreating back. There was something off about all of this.He's never this quiet, especially after what had happened at the event. Normally,

—----------Aubrey's pov—----------I stormed into Gregory's office, not even bothering to knock. The door slammed behind me with a force that echoed through the room, but I didn't care.My heart was still pounding from the night before, from the guilt, the confusion, and the overwhelming anger that had been festering inside me.Gregory looked up from his desk, a calm, almost amused expression on his face. It only fueled my anger more. How dare he look so smug after what he'd done?"What the hell was that last night, Gregory?" I snapped, my voice sharper than I intended. I didn't even wait for him to respond. "I told you to stop your men! I told you to call it off, but you went ahead with it anyway!"He leaned back in his chair, unbothered by my outburst. "Aubrey, calm down. I didn't do anything after your call. My phone died before I could hear what you were saying. Whatever happened wasn't my doing."His words hit me like a brick, but instead of calming me down, they only stoked the

Aubrey's pov ;I walked into Lily's wedding with Sophia by my side, the designs for Catherine tucked securely under my arm.The venue was breathtaking—white roses everywhere, drapes cascading from the ceiling, and a soft, golden glow from the chandeliers that made everything look ethereal.I should've felt proud bringing in these designs, but instead, there was a knot in my stomach. I could already sense that something was going to go wrong.Catherine greeted me warmly, her smile genuine as always. "Aubrey, dear, it's so good to see you. Thank you so much for coming," she said, her eyes twinkling with excitement. "I can't wait to see what you've brought for us."I forced a smile, trying to match her enthusiasm. "Thank you for having me, Catherine. It's an honor to be here."As she led us to a quieter corner to discuss the designs, I felt the weight of the boxes in my hands grow heavier. Catherine flipped through the designs and I could see the slight furrow of her brow as she studied

Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 95 EPILOGUE - Found our forever
Aubrey's pov ;One year later, life felt different—full of possibility and hope. The dark days were behind us, and in their place was a steady rhythm of love and success. I'd found my footing not just as a wife, but as a businesswoman.Balancing work and life had been a challenge at first, but now, as I stood in front of the crowd, delivering another speech at this business event, I felt confident and proud.I glanced at the audience, scanning the room as I spoke about leadership and resilience, and then my eyes found him—Ryder. He stood near the back, looking as handsome and supportive as ever, his smile wide, his eyes full of pride.Even from across the room, I could feel the warmth of his presence, the way he always made me feel like I was the centre of his world.It had been a year since we got back together, and everything was perfect. I couldn't believe how far we'd come, how much love had grown between us. I was so glad I'd given our marriage another chance, and Ryder—he had pr
Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 94 You're mine forever (M)
-----------------Aubrey's pov-----------------I kissed him once more, softer this time, letting the taste of his lips erase any lingering doubts. And for the first time in what felt like forever, I let myself believe that maybe, just maybe, there was a way back from all of this. That we could find our way back to each other, no matter how broken we were.That love really was stronger than any pain.Without breaking the kiss, he lifted me up into his arms, carrying me to the bedroom, our lips never parting.I ran my fingers over his chest, his shoulders, his arms, trying to re-memorize every little detail.My back hit the mattress, and a rush of nerves and adrenaline made my skin feel hot and prickly, as if it was too small for me. As if the tiniest thing could make me burst into a thousand pieces.And then he was there. Above me.The only one who could hold me together.His hands trailed over my hips and thighs, slowly, so slowly. Like he was trying to memorize every little part of m
Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 93 A promise of forever
--------------------------Aubrey's pov----------------------I stared at my packed bags sitting on the floor. The sight of them made my stomach twist with dread, but I couldn't shake the feeling that I needed to leave. My heart was heavy, weighed down by too many emotions—grief, guilt, love—and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't make sense of any of it. I thought leaving would make it easier, but standing here now, it felt like I was suffocating.Two days ago, Ryder and I had come back home, bruised and messed up. The cops had called today and they told me Sage's body had been found. My sister was—dead.I should have felt something more. Shock. Pain. Something. But all I felt was a strange numbness creeping through me.Sage had been meandering for so long, I always feared something like this would happen, but hearing it was real now…it was like I was caught between relief and guilt. And somewhere deep inside me, I knew it was better this way. The kind of things Sage did, the path
Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 92 It's over
Sage's pov ;The van's interior reeked of sweat and metal, and I could feel every bump and turn as we sped through the streets. My heart pounded in my chest, my mind racing with a thousand thoughts, but all of them boiled down to one thing—how the hell had everything gone so wrong?My wrists were tied behind my back, the ropes cutting into my skin, but I didn't dare show weakness. Not in front of these thugs. They were pissed off, and I could feel their eyes burning into me from the front seat. I could hear them muttering under their breaths, cursing me, blaming me for the whole mess.The biggest one, the one with the scar running down his cheek, twisted in his seat to glare at me. "You said the cops wouldn't be involved," he growled, his voice low and threatening. "Now look at us! We're on the fucking *wanted list*.""I—" I started, but another thug cut me off, his voice filled with barely controlled fury."Those guys who got caught? If they open their mouths, we're done for. And it'
Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 91 The rest could wait
Ryder's pov ;The moment I saw Aubrey, my heart nearly stopped. She was on the cold floor, her body trembling, clothes torn away, weak and exposed. Her eyes were wide with fear, and they locked onto mine and for a brief second, I saw relief in them the moment she saw me.But she was still in shock, and appeared too paralyzed to even move, too broken to understand that I was here for her now.Without thinking, I tore off my jacket and rushed to her side, wrapping it around her trembling body. "Aubrey…" My voice snapped, seeing her like this ravaged something inside me. I pulled her close to me to shield her from the nightmare that surrounded her right now.She clutched the jacket tight, but her hands were shaking. "R-Ryder…" Her voice was a mere whisper, barely audible over the pounding in my ears.I cupped her face, forcing her to look at me. "Are you alright?" I already know the answer. She was anything but fine but still I want her to stay something.She just nodded but I knew how h
Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 90 Beloved wife in danger
Sage's pov ;"Do whatever you guys want with her before we kill her!"The scarred man held her wrists firmly, forcing her to stay still. The others in the room chuckled, their dark amusement matching my own. This was my moment, a long time coming."Stop! Don't touch me!" She cried out and looked extremely scared.I rolled my eyes, walking toward her, my heels clicking ominously on the floor. "Oh, stop pretending. Where's that filthy slut you used to be?" I sneered, grabbing her chin roughly and forcing her to look at me. "Now you're playing innocent?"I slapped her again, the sharp crack of my hand against her cheek making the others in the room snicker. "Dirty bitch, don't act like you're worth more than this."She whimpered as one of the men ripped her shirt, exposing her to all of us. I loved seeing her like this, powerless and afraid. I had waited too long for this moment, and I was going to savor every second of it. She had always thought she was better than me. She thought Ryder
Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 89 Kidnapping her
Ryder's pov ;I sat in my office, the dim light casting long shadows across the room. The bottle of whiskey on my desk was nearly empty, the amber liquid swirling in the glass as I took another slow sip. The burn did little to dull the pain, to drown out the constant noise in my head.Aubrey's face kept flashing before my eyes—her pain, her anger. The way she looked at me when I tried to explain…like I was nothing. Like I wasn't worth her time anymore.I deserved it. All of it.The truth had come out, but it was too late. I should've listened to her three years ago. I should've believed her when she told me something was wrong. Instead, I let my arrogance, my doubt, destroy everything we had. Everything we could have been. And now, I've lost her.I exhaled sharply, the sound bitter in the silence of the office. The door creaked open behind me, and I didn't bother to turn around. I already knew who it was. Her perfume filled the air&mda

---------Ryder's pov--------"...fake," he said with calm certainty. "They've been heavily manipulated and photoshopped. Whoever did this knew what they were doing, but it's clear they're not real."Aubrey blinked, her face frozen in shock, as if the words hadn't fully registered."They're…fake?"she repeated.I turned to her, my chest tightening as I took in her reaction. "Aubrey," I said softly, stepping closer, "I told you. I never cheated. Sage did this to drive us apart, to make you believe something that wasn't true."She stood there, silent, her mind clearly reeling from the revelation. Her disbelief was evident, but so was the confusion that clouded her eyes. Slowly, she turned to face me, her expression unreadable.I took a deep breath, trying to reach her. "I'm sorry it took so long, Aubrey. I'm sorry I didn't listen to you before. But now you know the truth. Please…let me fix this. Let me make it right."
Comeback Of the Divorced Heiress Chapter 87 Truth of those photos
Ryder's pov ;I stormed into Aubrey's company, my heart pounding in my chest, barely able to keep my thoughts straight. The receptionist called after me, but I didn't care.I barged into the meeting room without knocking, ignoring the surprised looks of her colleagues as I interrupted whatever discussion they were having. Aubrey, seated at the head of the table, looked shocked, her eyes wide as they landed on me."Ryder?" Her voice was tight, confused. "What the hell are you doing here?"I was breathing heavily, my heart racing, but I didn't have time for formalities. "I need to talk to you. It's important, Aubrey. Those photos…they're fake."The room was dead silent, all eyes on us, and Aubrey's expression shifted to something between annoyance and exhaustion. She sighed, glancing around the table at the others. "Ryder, I'm in a meeting. We'll talk later.""No." My voice came out sharper than I intended, but I couldn't stop myself. I was desperate. "I can't wait. Come with me right n
