June 21, 2024. Chapter 1-2.
"Would you be open to a third round?"Heat crawled up to Riley's face. Then, images of her being pressed against the tinted glass window and fucked from behind played in her head. Riley's throat became paper dry as she answered, "Adrian?"She laughed and restarted, "I was just joking. Haha. Don't worry about it.""You mean you don't want to?" Adrian asked as he rested his incredibly handsome face against his fist. "Um." Riley bit her lip. She made a silly face and admitted, "Of course, I want to. It would be an exciting way to keep our fire burning, but regardless, I am happy and contented with whatever we can do?""The bed is so comfortable," she pointed out. "But what if? What if I could stand and walk, would you?" Adrian repeated. Riley's brows furrowed. She was unsure where Adrian was going with this, but she answered his hypothetical question accordingly, "Third round? Why not?"Then, she laughed. However, her amused expressions were cut short when Adrian suddenly admitted, "I
"Why don't you sit for a while? I have a few instructions for Clint," Adrian suggested because Riley's legs were shaking. Guilt washed over him, seeing his wife walk funny in the hotel lobby. He knew it was his fault, but she did explicitly say he could 'ruin her.'They had very rough sex in the shower. Perhaps he may have overdone it, but Riley was screaming in pleasure, and he couldn't help himself. "What's wrong with Mrs. King?" Clint curiously asked. Riley's face reddened. She reacted, "I'm fine. I - I slipped on the bathroom floor earlier."Adrian coughed. He covered his mouth at his wife's excuse. He wanted to chuckle but understood why she was ashamed to admit it before Clint. "Ah." Clint's eyes wandered around after Riley's reply. Afterward, he glanced at Adrian. When the man glared at him, Clint said, "Ah.""Ah..." Clint repeated. "I see.""What do you see, Clint? Do you doubt my reply? I did slip on the floor!" Riley exclaimed before turning on her heel. She briskly walked
### FLASHBACK ###High school was a time of heightened emotions for Riley. The absence of a father figure in her life became a gaping void only magnified by the sight of her friends with their dads. Yet, Renee, her mother, steadfastly refused to broach the subject of Riley's father for reasons unknown. As the school day came to an end, Riley's footsteps echoed through the empty hallways. She hurried home, her heart heavy with unspoken questions. The familiar scent of her mother's cooking greeted her as she entered the kitchen. "Good afternoon, Riley. How was your new school?" Renee asked. Yes, a new school. This was a result of their nomadic lifestyle in the past years, constantly moving from one city to another. But now, her mother had secured a stable job in Halliport, and Renee believed it was time to settle down. "School was great, Mom," Riley said. "I met new friends.""Wonderful. Let's have dinner now because, as you know, work starts early for your mom," Renee said while set
Adrian heaved a sigh, following Riley's request. He pulled her closer to him and pecked her forehead. He acknowledged, "Okay. If that is what you wish. I will let it go."Riley's demand for him to back off left Adrian with a lingering sense of unease. It wasn't long ago that Renee had asked him to investigate her accident, a request that had led Adrian to suspect a connection to Riley's father. 'What should I do now?' Adrian pondered. 'Could I really leave it alone?'Adrian figured he would let it rest, but that didn't mean he would stop. Besides, he still had many things to do. As for now, Adrian will focus on their honeymoon. "Thank you, Adrian. Thank you for telling me, and thank you for understanding me," Riley said. "Of course," Adrian nodded, his voice filled with empathy. "I am the same, with father issues. So, I understand how you feel. Forget I ever mentioned your father. Let's go to the resort."Not long after, their private transfer arrived at the airport runway, and they
While Adrian argued with this affluent man, Riley blankly stared at the woman behind him. She looked so pretty and familiar. It wasn't until the man introduced himself as the CEO of a big corporation that Riley finally recognized the woman. It was Gabrielle Taylor, the actress in the movie The Fallen Princess' Return! It was said that Gabrielle married a Billionaire from Braeton City, and Mr. Kyle Wright was it! Gabrielle approached Kyle Wright and said, "Handsome, it's okay. I want to take Kenneth to the beach now -""Exactly!" Kyle said. "That's why we need to have the right villa.""Gaby, just stand back and let me do what I do best," Kyle implied. Adrian was clearly about to refute when the Wrights' young toddler ran toward him. The boy smiled brightly while looking at the wheelchair and exclaimed, "Wow!"Riley was taken aback, and Adrian was the same. The boy suddenly climbed up on Adrian's lap and sang, "The wheels on the bus go round and round. Round and round. Round and roun
"Adrian? This villa is huge? It has -" Riley hastily walked around the villa and opened each room. They both turned up in the living room when she announced, "There are three bedrooms!""And look here," Riley pointed to the view from the living room. There was a lanai outside, but after that, expansive artificial ponds bordered their villa from outsiders. The small ponds were mere decorations in Riley's view. What followed next was the distant beach. "We are completely secluded!" With her hands up, Riley took a complete turn, saying, "It's perfect for us."Since Max had his room, Adrian could walk around freely. He loosened his necktie and revealed, "I supposed. I just thought that we would have fun with a bigger pool."Riley kicked off her shoes. Her legs were feeling better, so she danced to Adrian's side. She wrapped her arms around his neck and said, "What are we going to do with three bedrooms?"Adrian smirked. He said in a lustrous voice, "Isn't it obvious? I'm going to do you i
"I don't know if this is a good idea," Riley said while sitting on Adrian's lap. "Exercising your legs will make you feel better, Hun," Adrian suggested while driving his electronic wheelchair to the beach. A groan left Riley's lips. She whined, "Why did you have to push so hard!""You weren't complaining last night," Adrian pointed out, and he laughed. "Did you forget the words that came out of your mouth? Harder! More -""Stop it!" Riley chortled as she covered her face. "Let's just go."The couple was in their swimwear, eager to enjoy the beach. Adrian did not like the crowd. So, they had to go early in the morning to achieve this. To their surprise, they were not the only ones at the beach. The Wright couple were taking their young boy for a swim."Hi!" Riley waved upon seeing them."Oh, hello!" Gabrielle said back. She was in the water, carrying her son. Not too far, Kyle was walking toward the coast. Riley was the first to greet him, "Good Morning, Mr. Wright."Kyle nodded in
Brian entered the villa, shocked to see Mara and Claire's sister around. They were laughing loudly at the TV show they were watching. Claire's sister, Carrie, was wearing pajamas. Mara was also in her sleeping wear, but her face was still covered in makeup, and surprisingly, she had new pieces of jewelry on. "Oh, Brian, son. How is your day?" Mara got up with a big smile. Carrie also greeted him and stood up. A frown formed on Brian's face as he asked, "What's going on? Why are you all here?"Claire walked out of the kitchen, bringing a bowl of popcorn. She smiled at him and first placed the food on the table. Then, she approached and kissed his cheek, revealing, "Babe, Ma, and Sis will be living here for a while to help me with the wedding plans. I hope it's okay."Brian and Claire found another chapel for their small wedding, which will take place next Saturday. It was very last minute, so many things had to be coordinated with the wedding planner. He did not necessarily like livi
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
