October 18, 2024. One Chapter Only. The next update is tomorrow.
“Hey, Honey. Good news. Prince agreed to take on King Pay,” Adrian announced while working on his laptop in bed. A month had passed since Adrian offered Prince the job, and he had finally accepted. In the past few weeks, Adrian knew Prince had been traveling between Tiverwall and Halliport to finalize the sale of the cottage he no longer wanted. As a result, Adrian did not pressure him.“That’s great!” Riley replied. Adrian wasn’t looking at his wife. He only knew that she came from the bathroom. Hun?” Riley asked. “Do you know what I like about being pregnant? This is the only time of my life when I can do nothing and still be productive.”Riley raised both her brows in amusement while Adrian laughed. He set his laptop aside and replied, “Well, you are right about that, but why are you wearing a robe?”“I’m going to test if you still think I am sexy despite how I have gained weight,” Riley said before she took out her phone and played sensual music. “Honey, of course I still think
“Hey,” Adrian beamed, noticing Freya suckling in her sleep. He took her from the hospital crib and cradled his baby girl. “Are you hungry, Baby?”Freya had thick brown hair. They weren’t as dark as Adrian’s hair but close enough. She had a pointed nose and plump cheeks. Even as a baby, she had long lashes. Adrian imagined Freya would be Riley’s copy, but as it turned out, she looked more like him! He wondered if that meant Riley was more in love with him now. Adrian relished at the thought, and his smile never faded as he fed his daughter with a bottle.“Adrian?” Riley called, and his attention shifted to his wife. “What time is it? Freya?” Riley asked as she forced herself up. Riley was exhausted after delivering Freya. Her medication added to her sleepiness, so Riley rested for sixteen hours straight.“Look, Hun. Freya looks a bit like me!” Adrian moved closer to Riley, showing their daughter. Riley immediately wept as soon as she saw Freya. She touched Freya’s head, saying, “Oh,
“Look at you!” Riley exclaimed while on a video call with Gaby Wright. “No, look at you!” Gaby said. “You look so happy.”Gaby was carrying three babies simultaneously just for the video call, but Kyle quickly retrieved the other two babies. Riley could not help but react, “What a handful!”An audible laugh escaped Gaby’s lips. She said with tears brimming in her eyes, “Very much! To be honest, Kyle and I have not slept well over the past two months. From the daily visit to the hospital and now, their care. It’s tiring, but we love them so much. They all give me strength despite the exhaustion.”“We will visit you when Freya is a little older,” Riley offered. “Hang in there.”In the background, a baby was crying loudly. Gaby said, “That’s my cue to end the call. Haha. Take care, Riley, and enjoy your time with Freya! Give my regards to Adrian and everyone else.”After the call, Charles approached and said, “Riley, we are heading back to your villa. Your mother is tired.”“Of course, D
“You know, for a small woman, you have such a firm hand,” Brian complained while soothing his face with an ice pack. Megan sat across from him, but unlike her earlier attire, she now wore jogging pants and a loose jacket. She sneered and said, “I still can’t believe you lied to me.” “Excuse me?” Brian asked. “When did I ever tell you I was gay?” She frowned and said, “Fine, I assumed, but why didn’t you correct me?” “Didn’t I? I’m pretty sure I said I was a man. Besides, I did not care what you think of me. It wasn’t important until you started flashing your body before me,” Brian answered. “Arrgh! You just saw me naked!” Megan grumbled. “Correction. You were in your underwear, and it wasn’t my fault,” Brian pointed out. Megan grabbed her hair in frustration. “Then why were you evasive of women?” “I have reasons,” Brian said. “I did something horribly wrong, and now, I’m afraid of ever getting involved with a woman.” “Horrible?” Megan echoed. Brian paused, contemplating.
Adrian smiled from ear to ear as his daughter rested on his chest. He caressed Freya’s back as his little one yawned. He touched Freya’s finger, and the baby grabbed it tightly. Adrian said, “I don’t want to work.”“Then don’t,” Riley responded. “Let Engineer Philip and Clint take care of everything for now.”The couple was in bed, simply enjoying their time with their baby. They had not slept well in days, even with a nanny on board since Riley was breastfeeding Freya. Adrian naturally got up whenever his wife was awake. Even then, the happiness of welcoming their first child far outweighed their fatigue.“I’m just thankful Kyle is in the same boat as us. He isn’t pressuring us with the start of construction,” Adrian remarked, and they both chuckled. Adrian stretched his arm to his wife and urged her to come closer. Riley did so carefully, making sure she did not disturb Freya. Adrian pecked Riley’s forehead and said, “Go ahead and get some sleep, Hon. I’ll take care of Freya.”Riley
Megan and Brian were in a very awkward position. Brian was seated first in that plastic stool chair while Megan sat on top of him. Brian was supporting her weight, holding her by the ass while Megan hugged him. It created a balance that allowed both of them not to fall off the stool until Prince would arrive to save them from the electricity-charged floor. “Don’t you dare get an erection on me,” Megan warned. Brian gulped. He responded, “Can I stop it? I’m the one facing the TV.”“Shut your eyes!” Megan scolded. Brian did as Megan instructed, but no, that did not help. How could it? Not only was the erotic film so loud, Megan was sitting on his groin. Her soft breasts were pressed against his chest. Worse, he was firmly holding her ass, making sure she did not fall off the stool. “Ahh! Yeah!”“I love your cock!”“You are so wet!”The sensual lines from the film added to the fire, and Brian ultimately became aroused. “Is that what I think it is?” Megan asked. Brian was still clo
"Megan? Everything okay?" Riley asked. Megan and Prince were at Adrian's villa. Adrian requested an update from Prince about his new role at The King's Enterprises. Because Megan had been feeling blue, Prince convinced her to come along. While the men were having a closed-door meeting in the study, Megan had tea with Riley on the veranda. Riley was carrying Freya and resting her on her chest while staring at Megan. Riley asked, "You look… sad, and you look like you have not slept well.""Um." Megan did not know where to begin, but she figured she could just go directly to the point. "Will you hate me if I fall in love with your ex-husband?"Riley's mouth fell on the floor. She was slouching in her seat earlier, but she wound up sitting up and calling Freya's nanny. After she handed her baby to the caregiver, she returned her attention to Megan and said, "Okay, well. I had noticed your closeness. Honestly, I was thankful that Brian had helped you and Prince settle in." Riley paused
It was just months ago that Brian developed a severe ulcer, which resulted in his stomach bleeding. When everything came crashing down on him, he turned to alcohol for comfort, a way to forget his mistakes, but even that only gave him temporary relief. He was drowning in sorrow day by day. His company was losing clients. Many of his employees have quit their jobs. He was losing money, and he was losing himself. His most significant reality check came when he was arrested for DUI and accused of causing Adrian’s accident. During those days behind bars, he vowed to turn his life around. No matter how long it took, he knew he had to make a change.Brian began with the biggest change of all: cutting down on his alcohol. Next, he reminded himself of the people who relied on him, his remaining employees still expecting a job. Last, he vowed to stay away from relationships altogether. He was unsure how long he could keep it up, but he had reached a point where the thought of falling int
Dear Readers, Thank you for your unwavering support and for being part of this incredible journey. I won't say it's the end because we will still hear from Riley and Adrain. However, Chapter 262 concludes Book 1 of Divorced My Cheating Husband, Married A Billionaire. Book 2 will cover Riley and Adrian's lives years later and focus on their children. Yes, this includes their daughter, Freya. In the coming days, I will write a preview and some bonus chapters using the author's notes. Please watch out for it. Now, the question is when will Book 2 start?I have things I need to take care of—for my kids, my baby, and myself. I have been putting off my follow-up check-up and need to get it done. (Somebody will get scolded by the doctor, and that's me. :))We will also be moving back to our old house, which will take a lot of time.I don't want to underdeliver, so I will wait to give an estimated time. I just want to get the abovementioned tasks out of the way first before coming back with
“Happy Birthday, Grandpa. I love you and miss you,” Freya said while putting a flower on Abner’s grave. Charlie followed, putting her teddy bear down. She said, “Grandpa, you can have Mr. Bear. So you won’t miss us too much.”Jasper followed, leaving a card that he had drawn for Abner. He asked, “Hey, Grandpa. Is it always a buffet in heaven?”The adults behind the kids laughed. Jasper turned to his parents, objecting, “Grandpa told me there’s a buffet in heaven!”“Dad did say that a lot,” Anthony remarked, chuckling. More than a year had gone by since Abner’s passing, and they all visited him in his mausoleum, the same one that housed his departed wife, Marilyn King. Charles and Realyn were also present, bringing along their son. Carson had made a Lego mansion for Abner. He placed it above his tomb and said, “Grandpa, I made a house for you. Hope you like it.”Kian moved forward next. He pouted as he said, “Great-grandpa Abner, since you left, the house has been a bit boring. Daddy
“Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday, Dear Freya. Happy birthday to you!” On Freya’s 6th birthday, everyone gathered again. The celebration was held at the very first Diamond Hotel in Halliport. Freya stood on the stage with her parents and siblings. She wore a crown over her head and a ballroom gown fit for a princess. She had a bright smile before she blew the candles on her cake. The audience erupted into applause, after which the party host asked, “What was your wish, Princess Freya?”“That I will grow strong and healthy so I can be a businesswoman someday!” Freya declared, adding to everyone’s amusement. Praises echoed in the ballroom. Carrying both his sons, Adrian struggled to clap his hands, but Jasper and Kian did it for him. “Yay! My turn to blow!” Charlie said. She was beaming while being held by Riley. “No, me!” Jasper screamed. “No, me!” Kian said. The guests laughed out loud at how Riley and Adrian’s children wanted to blow out the candles
Over a year passed. “Five minutes more, and we are done,” Adrian said as he continued to run on the treadmill. “Honey, I can’t believe I’m back to running for two straight hours again,” Riley said while catching her breath. Her body was sweating profusely, her athletic wear soaked altogether.” It was the same for her husband. Adrian’s skin was glowing in his sweat, and with him running half-naked, he looked mighty fine. “Rrr. Somebody looks hot,” Riley remarked while checking out her husband. “We should have sex after shower.”“We should,” Adrian said while chuckling. “The last time we tried to make love, Freya walked in on us.”“We should learn to lock the door,” Riley said, but locking the doors was easier said than done when Freya always demanded their time and attention whenever they were home. Since delivering the Triplets, Riley had always asked Adrian to be her exercise buddy. Although her postpartum belly has still not fully recovered, she is getting there. The best part i
“What? Why can’t we see Riley before the delivery?” Renee asked, furious. “Why is she delivering early?”“It’s a delicate pregnancy, Aunt, and she is going into operation right now. Don’t worry. I will take care of Riley,” Zia said. Zia knew that Riley had hidden the truth about her pregnancy. During her second trimester, Riley had attempted to wear baggy clothes to conceal her growing belly. Zia also knew Riley purposely evaded seeing her parents and aunt personally in the recent months.Only Zia, Clint, Abner, Adrian, and Riley knew the truth. Zia even colluded with Riley, giving her a fake ultrasound report.Now, Riley was already 34 weeks pregnant. It was too early for her to give birth, but it had to be done. Going further into the pregnancy was too dangerous. “What’s her condition? Is it polyhydramnios?” Renee asked. This was one of Renee’s suspicions, but Zia always found a way to avoid the topic. “It’s one of those rare pregnancies, Aunt - Oh! I hear Riley crying. I better g
Time passed again, and it was finally time for Zia to give birth to her twins. Zia had no complications during her pregnancy. Thus, she decided to give birth vaginally. She was prepared for the worst. Zia had delivered countless babies and witnessed different kinds of mothers, including those who screamed, cried, prayed, counted numbers, and more. So, Zia was quiet despite the labor pains. However, it was not the same for her husband, Clint.Zia wanted to avoid an epidural if possible, saving it as a last resort. During labor, she hummed and took deep breaths. They were in their birthing suite, with Clint holding Zia’s hand. Between the two of them, it looked like Clint was about to give birth. He was sweating and already jittery. He said, “Zia, you are so strong. I love you so much.”Soon, it was time for Zia to push. She gave it her all. Clint and her doctor helped her through it. However, after several attempts, the first baby was still not coming out! Zia’s doctor decided to perf
“Honey? What are you doing here?” Adrian asked, surprised to see Riley stepping onto the private jet. He was scheduled for a trip to check on the project’s progress in Hawaii, so her unexpected arrival caught him off guard.“I’m coming with you!” Riley declared. “It’s been a while since I accompanied you on business trips. Why not mix business with pleasure? And don’t worry, Freya is staying with Aunt, and so is Grandpa. I figured it was about time we had more alone time together.”She beamed and settled on the seat next to Adrian. She pressed her lips into his ear and pointed out, “You do realize that I am about to ovulate. This is the perfect time to have lots of sex!”“Honey,” Adrian said. “I know about that. I was coming back tomorrow morning.”“Yes, but why not have lots of sex in paradise?” Riley pointed out. “Maybe we need a little adventure.”She scanned the private jet, and after finding Adrian’s new male assistant, she whispered, “We can have, you know, sex on the beach, on t
“Riley, Aunt Renee needs us,” Adrian revealed in the middle of the night. Riley was fast asleep when Adrian awoke her. She got up immediately, and a worried expression appeared on her face. She asked, “What happened to Aunt?”“Her blood pressure went up, so the doctor decided to deliver the baby prematurely,” Adrian said while getting off the bed. “Dad just called. He is in a panic.”Riley frowned. Because Zia was very pregnant and her stomach was growing bigger, she had to hold off from delivering babies, but she was still on top of her aunt’s condition. She had also appointed the second-best doctor to attend to Renee. “I’ll call Zia,” Riley said while leaving the bed. Time had passed again. Her aunt’s pregnancy was already thirty-four weeks, not yet full term. Naturally, Riley was worried. She had heard Gaby’s story about their struggle with Kenneth and the triplet’s birth, so she was afraid her aunt would go through the same situation. “Zia? Thank you for picking up,” Riley said
~ “Tonight I just want to take you higher Throw your hands up in the sky Let’s set this party off right” ~ Previously hidden amongst his groomsmen, Clint emerged from his flock of male friends and cousins to sing and dance to the tune of 24k Magic by Bruno Mars. This was Clint and Zia’s wedding celebration. They did not wait long and wed while Zia was still ten weeks pregnant. Clint and Zia wanted to make things formal before Zia’s belly grew too big. Clint glided down the center aisle of the ballroom with casual, effortless confidence. His steps were smooth and rhythmic, exuding a cool, controlled vibe as he moved to the beat. He and his crew of groomsmen dancers execute sharp, synchronized moves that give the choreography a sense of unity and camaraderie.With every slick move, their smiles were evident. They occasionally winked at the crowd, giving off that suave look. The wedding was held at the Marriot Hotel, and over five hundred guests were invited. Most guests were Clint
