Divorced By My Husband; Married To His Boss 09.
Riley’s POVI paced back and forth in the room, my thoughts running wild. How did I end up in this situation? I was getting married to a man I barely knew, and his family was treating me like I was part of the family. It didn't make any sense.I stopped pacing and looked around the room, feeling like a prisoner. I didn't want to be here, I didn't want to get married to Mr. King, and I didn't want to be a part of this stinking rich family.I can get into another marriage when I just got divorced three days ago and to a rich person like Mr King.All these elites are good at nothing but cheating; they could have anything at the tip of their fingers; they act like the world revolves around them, and it doesn’t.I’ve made the mistake of letting Asher deceive me for all these years, and I won’t be doing that again.My thoughts are caught short when I hear a knock on the door. I took a deep breath and walked over to open it.Mr. King stood in the doorway, his eyes fixed on me. "Riley, we ne

Riley’s POVI walked down the aisle, my hand clutching Anderson's arm, Mr. King's maternal uncle. The soft music and gentle rustling of the guests' clothes seemed to fade into the background as I made my way to the altar.My mind was elsewhere, transported back to my wedding day with Asher.The memories came flooding back, and my heart ached with a deep sadness. My lips quivered, and I felt like I was going to break down in tears.I wanted to turn around and run away, to escape the pain and the heartache that threatened to overwhelm me.But I couldn't. Right now, Mr. King was all I had. He was my only hope, my only chance at revenge against Asher and those who had wronged me. I took a deep breath and continued walking, my eyes fixed on the man waiting for me at the altar.Mr. King looked handsome, his eyes locked onto mine as I approached. He smiled, and I felt a flutter in my chest. I pushed the feeling aside, reminding myself that this was just a business arrangement.Nothing more,

Riley’s POVI couldn't hold back the tears anymore. Agnes's words cut deep, and I felt like I'd been punched in the gut. I broke into sobs, my body shaking uncontrollably.He had to have a motive; that’s what all rich people do.They’re best at using people to get what they want regardless of their feelings.I can’t believe I agreed to this. I should have never believed him in the first place. He made it seem like he cared about the child and was willing to help, but I should have known better. Just then, Mr. King walked out, a look of concern on his face. "Riley, what are you doing outside?" he asked, walking towards me.I turned to face him, my eyes blazing with anger. "You!" I spat, my voice shaking with rage. "You cheat! You used me! You lied to me!"Mr. King's expression changed, his eyes narrowing. "Riley, calm down. What are you talking about?" he snapped.“I am a ticket to taking over your late grandfather’s company.” I spat.His eyes darkened.“What is it? Cat got your tongu

Riley’s POV My heart froze at his words before picking up at a fast rate, my throat suddenly feeling dry, my skin missing the contact of his lips on it. The tension between us was palpable; the air thickened. He tugged a hair behind my ears; without hesitation, he leaned in, his lips capturing mine in a searing kiss. I felt like I'd been punched in the gut, my breath knocked out of me. Waves of shock washed over me, leaving me tongue-tied and helpless. Before I could even process what was happening, Mr. King's arms wrapped around me, lifting me off the ground. I felt like I was floating, my feet dangling in midair as he headed towards the room. His kiss was soft yet demanding. He bit on my lower lip, seeking entrance, and I let him take my hands, driving into his soft silk hair, trying to match his pace. I couldn't believe this was happening. Just moments before, I was furious with him, demanding answers and feeling betrayed. But now...now I felt like I was melting into his ar

Riley’s POVI slowly opened my eyes, groggily taking in my surroundings. It looked oddly familiar before it registered to me that I was in Mr. King's bed.I lifted slightly, rubbing on my eyes, trying to rub off the remaining sleep in my eyes. As I moved, I felt a soreness in my body, a gentle ache that reminded me of the events of the previous night.I stared at my body, feeling a flush rise to my cheeks as memories of Mr. King's touch, his kisses, and his caresses, and how he felt inside of me flooded my mind.I felt my cheeks heat up as I ran a hand through my hair, letting out a growl, shame, guilt, and yet, satisfaction.I couldn't believe what had happened between us. It was like I had lost all control, all sense of reason. I had given in to my desires, and now, I felt...conflicted.Everything that has been happening feels like a movie; giving in to Mr. King made me feel so vulnerable, yet the hint of protectiveness that came with him still lingered. I don’t want to get my hea

NicolasI stood at the head of the conference table, my eyes facing the room filled with the company's top executives. I had called this emergency meeting to address the future of the company; now that my grandfather was gone and with his condition filled, I was taking control.“As you are all aware, my grandfather's passing has left me in charge of the company now.” I begin pausing to take in their facial expression.However, just as I was about to continue my speech, one of the senior executives spoke up."Excuse me, Mr. King," he said, his voice hesitant. "But didn't your grandfather say that you had to be married before you could take over the company?"I felt a flicker of annoyance, but I kept my cool. I glanced over at Giovanni, whose face had held a frown.I didn’t miss the shock on his face when he saw the resume work this morning.What was he expecting? He wanted me dead by now, and he should be the one in my position now, ready to take over.I wasn’t going to rip him off hi

Riley’s POVI stirred on the bed, groaning in pain as memories of previous events came rushing back to me. Monica, the kick she threw in my bump... it all came flooding back.I panicked, bolting upright and clutching my stomach. "My baby!" I cried out, tears accumulating at the brim of my eyes.No, please.It can’t be gone.I couldn’t lose my baby; I’d never be able to forgive Mr. King if anything were to happen to my baby.Fear of miscarriage clouded my thoughts, knowing the pain Mr. King’s psychotic girlfriend caused me. Just then, Mr. King walked into the room, a look of concern etched on his face. "Riley, thank goodness you’re awake," he said, rushing to my side.Frustration brewed within me as the tears slipped. "Your psychotic girlfriend killed my baby!" I burst out, more tears streaming down my face.Mr. King's expression changed, his eyes widening in alarm. "Riley, the baby is fine," he said, trying to reassure me.But I wasn't listening. I was too caught up in my anger and

Riley’s POV It had been a week since the accident, and I had barely seen Mr. King. He would leave for work before I woke up, and by the time I fell asleep, he was still not back. It was like we were ships passing in the night, never intersecting.And for some reason, it bothers me, even though it shouldn’t, but it does.Although Mr. King still managed to make his presence felt. He would leave me sweet notes on the bedside table every morning, telling me to take care of myself and the baby. He would also send me random messages on my phone, asking me how I was doing or if I needed anything.These little gestures made me feel...seen. They made me feel like I mattered, even when he was busy with work. Mr. King was slowly making me loosen up to him. I could be a tough one, but he’s making modeling me easy.It’s like he knows what to do without being told what to do; he just knows the right thing to do.My phone ringing snaps me out of my train of thought. It was Mr. King. I bit my bot

Riley’s POVMr. King excused himself to talk to a business acquaintance. After today’s confession, I’ve been unreasonably clingy, almost like he wasn’t real and would disappear if I let him go.I let him go, allowing him to enjoy his night and celebrate his achievement, he deserved as much, and I used that as an opportunity to slip away unnoticed.The room was crowded and noisy, and I felt a sudden need for some fresh air, feeling a little bit too much suffocated.I made sure Mr. King didn’t have his attention on me, or he wouldn’t let me leave; that I was so sure of.I finally reached the French doors leading out to the poolside and slipped outside, closing the doors behind me.I let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding as the cold night air brushed on my skin.I walked to the garden, relishing the sensation.I hear hush tunes as I approach the garden.I noticed two figures standing in the shadows, near the pool house. They were arguing in hushed tones, but I could tell it was a

Riley’s POVIt's hard to believe it's been two months since I got divorced and remarried to Mr. King. It feels like just yesterday I was at the hospital ready for an abortion and then Mr King walked to me soaked with blood.Time has flown by, and our relationship has only continued to blossom. Mr. Kikg has been nothing but a sweetheart, and now I can say I have fallen in love completely with Mr. King.And although I still haven’t said the words to him as he does with me, my gestures were too obvious to hide the truth.As I stand in front of the mirror, I look at my reflection, admiring the elegantly beautiful dress and king had gotten for me. I rubbed slightly on my bump, a smile spreading on my lips.I couldn’t wait to birth the bundle of joy; I can imagine how much happiness it would bring to our lives.The woman staring back at me is nothing compared to the woman I was after getting my heart broken by Asher. I’ve struggled to put my past with Asher behind me, and I’m glad I did.I

Riley’s POVAfter I registered what was happening, I pulled back, trying so hard to compose myself and not give in to his comfort.I needed to leave, or else I wouldn’t be able to control myself or my emotions. I didn’t want him to know how much effect it had on me seeing him kissing Monica.I tried to walk past Mr. King, who was still standing in front of my office door, his arms crossed over his chest. But he didn't budge."Excuse me," I said, trying to sound calm, but my voice trembled.My eyes were stinging with tears; I bit on my bottom lip, trying so hard not to break down, but he was making it impossible.He didn’t want to move out of my way, and that annoyed me.His gaze was blocked, more intense, and filled with so much guilt. "We should talk, Riley. What you saw wasn’t as it is, c’mon Riley, you—“I shook my head. "There's nothing to talk about. You should go back to Monica. After all, you two were enjoying each other’s company, and don’t worry about me. I think who you shou

Riley’s POVI ran out of Mr. King's office, my heart racing with hurt and anger. I couldn't believe what I had just seen. Mr King and Monica, kissing in his office. I felt like I had been punched in the gut.After having a long day like usual, I’d slip out from my office to his office to clear my head, but I should have seen his betrayal coming.I could hear him yelling my name, but I ignored it, rushing to my office, shutting the door behind me, and making sure to lock it with a kiss.I leaned against the door, trying to catch my breath, and the tears started flowing. I broke into sobs, feeling like my heart was shattering into a million pieces.Why had I trusted him? Why had I thought he was different? They were all the same, men who only cared about themselves and their desires.I felt so stupid, so naive.He used me for his own game. I should have listened to Giovanni; I shouldn’t have let Mr. King Ma’s deceptive ways get to me.After all, I wasn’t in his league; it was always Mo

Nicolas’s POVNoah and I were in the office discussing work-related important stuff when Ryder walked in.My brows furrowed knowing I didn’t call for him, which must mean an emergency; he may have found something.“What is it, Ryder?” I asked.“It’s Giovanni,” he responds instantly.“What did the motherfucker do now?” Noah growls.He cleared his throat. "We've received intel that he's been working closely with your father, Mr. King."I raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "Go on."He proceeds, his expression getting darker. "It seems that your father has been secretly building a case against you, Mr. King. They're working together to take away your property and business interests. With your grandfather gone, your father believes he is the sole heir to the King’s Enterprises."My jawline hardened at the audacity of my father. For all these years he turned his back on us, and now he's suddenly back, trying to take away the company?I’d be damned to let him do that."I see," I said, my voice ev

Riley’s POVThe ride to the mansion was a quiet one filled with tension. I should have known he’d find me; what was I expecting?As we drove into the house, he didn’t waste time in sliding out of the car, walking away when usually he opens the other side of the door for me, and we walked hand in hand into the house.My heart squeezed knowing I’d piss him off.“You shouldn’t have run out like that. Mr. King is very strict when it comes to security, especially you… The same thing that had happened to him when he got shot could have happened to you; your life revolves around him now, and you’re the only bait to get to him,” Ryder informs, snapping me out of my train of thoughts.“I—“ I stuttered, unable to form any coherent words.“I’ll see you tomorrow, Mrs. King.” He shortens the conversation, to which I nod, forcing a tight-lipped smile.I got out of the car and walked into the house just in time; Mr. King walked out of the kitchen holding a bottle of water.He barely gave me a five-s

Riley’s POVWe reached Sophia's apartment building, guilt still eating me up; I made sure to leave my phone behind to avoid getting tracked.I didn’t know if I was being fair to Mr. Ming, but I just wanted some time away.I had to be careful not to be seen by any of Mr. King's men, Ryder specifically, or Mr. King himself. Especially not with Sophia; I didn’t want to get her in trouble if we happened to get caught.Plus, if anyone saw us together last if investigations of my whereabouts are taking place, she’ll surely be involved.Sophia held on to my hand, seeing as I was lost in thoughts, “Hey! It’s going to be fine.”I forced a smile, nodding, “Thank you.”"Thankfully we could get out of the office without being seen," she said, glancing around nervously. "I don't think Mr. King would find it funny if he finds out you’re gone. Are you sure you did the right thing?” She tried to reason.“I don’t know; I just need a day or two to think. A lot has been going on, and it gets overwhelmin

Riley’s POVHe didn't notice my presence till I clicked the door; he turned his attention back to me with a smile, and there was something in his eyes that made me feel uneasy."Ah, Riley, settle down," he said, gesturing for me to take a seat. "We need to discuss something very important."For some reason, I sensed something wasn’t right, and I couldn’t trust this man; he didn’t seem like good news. What could he possibly want to discuss with me? I didn't know what Giovanni wanted to talk about, but I had a feeling it wasn't going to be good."Yes, how can I help?" I asked, trying to sound calm.Giovanni leaned forward, his eyes locked on mine. "Riley, I'm going to be transparent with you," he said. "You're like a daughter to me, and I wouldn't want you getting tied up in Mr. King's games."My brows furrowed in confusion as I couldn’t help but ask, “Games?" feeling defensive. And what did he know about my relationship with Mr. King?"With all due respect, sir, I don’t understand w

Riley’s POVI let out a sigh as I flipped through the documents. This was my life now, working back-to-back.Fatigue crept within me as I let out a growl. A knock came through my door, and I ushered the person in, composing myself.Amber walked in with a sinister look on her face.I felt the urge to hiss, knowing that she was here for trouble.“How can I help you, Amber?” I ask, leaning back on the chair.She sent me a glare. “You’re a horrible person, Riley. How can you even live like this knowing that you’ve stolen my Asher’s spot?”I rolled my eyes. “Please, I’m not in for a long talk; walk out of my office if you have nothing important to say. I cannot entertain nonsense.”Her nose flared, “How did you even do it? I mean, get to know Mr. King up to the extent of marrying him? Huh? I’ve always known you were with Asher for your motive. “It was the same thing over and over again; she sounded like a broken record.“Amber, I’m warning you now, walk out of my office or else—“She cuts
