Divorced my ex, proposed by billionaire Chapter 20 Unveiling Misconceptions
Rita's heart skipped a beat when she saw Percy enter the mansion. She hadn't expected her to be among the guests at the party, and her presence only added to her anxiety. Jaden's cousin, whom she had never met before, seemed to share the same surprise as she glanced at Rita and then back at Percy.As the cousin approached them, a wave of unease washed over Rita. She knew she needed to handle the situation delicately and dispel any misconceptions about her intentions. Taking a deep breath, she plastered a smile on her face and greeted Jaden's cousin warmly."Hello there," Rita said, extending her hand. "I don't believe we've had the pleasure of meeting. I'm Rita, Jaden's... well, Jaden's wife."The cousin's eyes narrowed, suspicion evident in her gaze. She shook Rita's hand reluctantly, still sizing her up. "Wife, huh? That's interesting," she replied with a touch of skepticism.Rita felt a pang of discomfort, realizing that her true identity as Jaden's ex-wife was still hidden from Ja
Divorced my ex, proposed by billionaire Chapter 21 A Day Nightmare
As Jaden's grandmother witnessed his protective stance towards Percy, her face turned red with a mixture of anger and disappointment. She shook her head in disbelief at her grandson's actions and couldn't hold back her frustration any longer."Jaden!" she shouted, her voice echoing through the hall. "How dare you prioritize that girl over your own wife? Have you lost all sense of decency?"The guests' attention shifted from the commotion caused by Rita's fall to Jaden and his grandmother, their murmurs hushing as they absorbed the gravity of the situation. It became clear to everyone present that Rita was indeed Jaden's wife, and the realization weighed heavily on their conscience.Jaden's eyes widened, realization dawning upon him as he registered the disapproving stares from the guests. A pang of guilt shot through his heart, and he looked at Rita, who stood there, drenched and vulnerable, waiting for his support."I... I'm sorry, Grandma," Jaden stammered, his voice filled with rem
Divorced my ex, proposed by billionaire Chapter 22 Broken Trust
As Rita stood there, clad only in a towel, a wave of embarra*sment washed over her as Jaden entered the bathroom, bearing a set of pajamas. Her cheeks flushed with a deep shade of red, and she instinctively tightened the grip on her towel, suddenly aware of her vulnerable state.Jaden, his eyes locked onto Rita's blushing face, paused for a moment, taking in the sight before him. The tension in the room was palpable, but instead of averting his gaze, he felt a surge of affection and longing.Without uttering a word, Jaden gently placed the pajamas he had brought aside and closed the distance between them. His touch was soft and tender as he cupped Rita's face, his eyes filled with a mixture of desire and adoration. And in that moment, he kissed her with a gentleness that spoke volumes.The warmth of Jaden's lips against hers ignited a spark within Rita. It was a kiss that carried the weight of unspoken apologies, hopes for reconciliation, and a shared desire to heal their fractured bo
Divorced my ex, proposed by billionaire Chapter 23 The Deed has been Done
Rita's heart raced as Jaden unexpectedly appeared before her, his presence catching her off guard. She had been consumed by worry for her grandmother, that was the main reason she followed them to the hospital without them knowing. But now, faced with Jaden's presence, a mix of guilt and apprehension filled her."Jaden, I... I didn't expect to see you here," Rita stammered, her voice tinged with uncertainty. "Is Grandma alright?"Jaden's gaze softened as he looked at her, his earlier bitterness momentarily giving way to concern. "Grandma wants to see you," he said quietly, his voice filled with a mix of emotions. "She asked for you specifically."Rita's eyes widened with surprise and a glimmer of hope emerged within her. Without hesitation, she followed Jaden to the ward where Grandma lay, her frail form a stark contrast to the strength she had exhibited throughout her life."Grandma, I'm so sorry for everything," Rita whispered, her voice choked with emotion. "I didn't mean to hide f
Divorced my ex, proposed by billionaire Chapter 24 A new phase of life
Rita stood outside the apartment, a mix of excitement and nervousness coursing through her veins. She had finally found a place that felt right, a place where she could start anew and rebuild her life. As she reviewed the details with the real estate agent, a familiar voice caught her attention."Noah?" she called out, her eyes widening in surprise.Noah turned around, a wide grin spreading across his face as he recognized Rita. "Rita! What a coincidence!"Rita couldn't help but smile in return. There was something serendipitous about crossing paths with Noah once again. She felt a glimmer of hope, as if it was a sign that things were falling into place."It's so good to see you, Noah," she said, her voice filled with genuine warmth. "What are you doing here?"Noah chuckled, his eyes sparkling with enthusiasm. "I'm actually moving into this apartment building. I got a job offer at a nearby art gallery, and this place was just too perfect to pa*s up. What about you?"Rita took a deep b
Divorced my ex, proposed by billionaire Chapter 25 It's happening
Rita couldn't stand Jaden's drunken state so she slapped him as he tried to kiss her and have s*x with her.Rita's hand stung from the force of the slap she had delivered to Jaden's face. His eyes widened in shock, the drunken haze momentarily clearing as he registered her words. Anger and confusion flickered in his gaze as he struggled to comprehend the situation."You're not Percy?" Jaden slurred, his words slurred and his voice filled with disbelief. "What are you talking about?"Rita's voice trembled with a mix of anger and frustration. "I am not Percy, Jaden! We are divorced, and your actions are completely unacceptable. You have no right to touch me or hara*s me in any way. I will not tolerate it."Jaden's face twisted with a mix of anger and embarra*sment. His voice grew louder, fueled by the alcohol coursing through his veins. "You think you can just move on with someone else? With Noah? After everything we had?"Rita's eyes flashed with determination, her voice firm as she st
Divorced my ex, proposed by billionaire Chapter 26 Finding strength and support
It was raining heavily on a Friday morning as Percy rudely opened Rita's door accusing her of luring her future husband Jaden to bed."How dare you Rita? What gave you the audacity to sleep with Jaden? I don't know why you can't let I and Jaden have peace in our relationship." Percy kept voicing out her pain as she told Rita to her face."Listen Percy I don't know what your insecurities are buy I can boastfully say that I had nothing to do with you Jaden and I won't watch you say those nasty things about me in my house. It's true that he came to my apartment but we didn't sleep together at all, I guess maybe if you've treated him right he wouldn't have showed up in my place yesterday." She replied Percy looking straight into her eyeballs."You know what Rita." as she pointed her hands into Rita face."What?" Rita slightly pulled Percy hands down and spoke directly to her face without a doubt in her voice."You're nothing but an a*sh*le and a Marriage breaker, you daughter of a bit*h."

Divorced my ex, proposed by billionaire Chapter 107 Kidnapping Accusation Interrogation
Rita handed over the recorded phone conversation to the police, accusing Noah and Percy of kidnapping. They were taken into custody for questioning.Inside the small, sterile interrogation room, Detective Rodriguez eyed Noah and Percy sternly. "Gentlemen, you're both aware of the serious allegations against you. Rita claims she has evidence of your involvement in the kidnapping. Care to explain yourselves?"Noah exchanged a tense glance with Percy before sighing heavily. "Detective, this is all a misunderstanding. We were never involved in any kidnapping. Rita is just trying to pin something on us."Percy nodded in agreement. "Absolutely, Detective. We may have had some disagreements with Rita, but kidnapping? That's a bit extreme."Detective Rodriguez leaned forward, his gaze unwavering. "Rita seems pretty convinced that you two are responsible. And this recorded conversation she handed over, where you discuss the 'plan' and even mention the victim's name, doesn't help your case."No
Divorced my ex, proposed by billionaire Chapter 106 Saving Jaden's Heroism
The powerful will to survive continuously fueled Rita, and she had to make sure Jaden knew that she was the little girl who saved him back then. Just then, Rita heard Jaden's voice, calling out to her repeatedly. She desperately wanted to respond, but she realized she didn't have the strength to speak.As the haze of exhaustion blurred Rita's vision, she managed to raise her hand weakly in an attempt to signal Jaden. He rushed to her side, his expression a mix of relief and concern. "Rita, you're awake!" he exclaimed, gently grasping her hand.A faint smile tugged at the corners of Rita's lips as she mustered the energy to whisper, "Saved... you." Her voice was barely a whisper, but the words were enough to convey her message.Jaden's eyes widened with understanding, memories of that fateful day flooding back. "You're the one who pulled me out of the river when we were just kids, aren't you?" he asked, his voice filled with amazement. "I've always wondered who that mysterious girl was

Rita's eyes fluttered open, and she found herself in a dimly lit room. Percy was sitting beside her, concern etched on his face. "Rita, are you alright?" he asked, his voice filled with worry.She took a deep breath, her memories still swirling in her mind. "I... I remember," Rita whispered, her voice quivering. "I remember everything now, Percy."Percy's eyes widened, a mix of surprise and relief washing over him. "You do? That's incredible, Rita. What do you remember?"Tears welled up in Rita's eyes as she recounted the memories that had flooded back to her. "Jaden... the mountain... the kidnappers. I remember saving him, guiding him down the slope," she said, her voice trembling. "And the necklace, Percy. It was Jaden who caught hold of it, not you."Percy's expression darkened, his grip on the necklace tightening. "Rita, you don't understand. I... I did what I had to do to protect you. Jaden was too weak, and I couldn't let him have it. It was for your own safety."Rita looked at
Divorced my ex, proposed by billionaire Chapter 104 Unraveling Rita's Deceit
Percy intervened, shooing Noah away to buy some food for Rita. Percy had long desired to get rid of Rita but had always failed. She played the victim, revealing Jaden's information to Noah, aiming to gain his trust and work together to abduct Rita.Percy's patience had worn thin, and she saw an opportunity to finally unravel the tangled web Rita had woven. As Noah reluctantly left to fetch the food, Percy leaned in closer to Rita, her voice a low and dangerous whisper."Your little games won't work anymore, Rita," Percy hissed, her eyes piercing into hers. "I know your true intentions, and I won't let you manipulate Noah any longer."Rita's façade crumbled, her eyes darting around as if searching for an escape. She was cornered, and Percy knew it."You can't prove anything," Rita stammered, her voice shaky.Percy's lips curled into a sardonic smile. "Oh, but I can. You underestimated me, Rita. I've been gathering evidence of your deceit for quite some time now."Rita's defiance wavere
Divorced my ex, proposed by billionaire Chapter 103 Alliance to Control Power
Rita's head spun as she tried to make sense of the situation. She blinked, trying to process the unexpected alliance between Noah and Percy. The room felt heavy with tension, and Rita's heart raced as she looked from Noah's eyes to Percy's determined expression."Rita, you have to understand," Noah began, his voice strained. "I never wanted any of this to happen. But you insisted on being with Jaden, and that tied your fate to his."Rita's eyes narrowed as she absorbed his words. "Tied my fate? What do you mean?"Percy chimed in, his tone calmer than Noah's, but equally serious. "Jaden possesses a power that could reshape the world, but it comes at a great cost. And you, Rita, unwittingly became part of that cost when you chose to stand by his side."Frustration bubbled within her, and she clenched her fists. "So, what? You two decided that locking me up was the solution? That destroying Jaden would somehow fix everything?"Noah's gaze softened, but his grip on his emotions remained t

Percy visited the hospital to see Jaden. He told her that he had completely lost patience with her and warned her that if she dared to harm Rita, he would not spare her.Percy pa*sionately questioned how Jaden could treat her like this, forgetting that she had saved his life.Percy's words hung in the air, tension thickening with every pa*sing second. The sterile hospital room seemed to close in on them, its cold white walls reflecting the emotional turmoil that swirled within. Jaden's gaze remained fixed on the floor, unwilling to meet Percy's accusatory stare."Percy," Jaden finally spoke, her voice barely above a whisper, "I know you're angry, and I understand why. But you don't understand the complexity of the situation."Percy clenched her fists, struggling to contain her frustration. "Complexity? Jaden, Rita is innocent in all of this. She's been through enough, and she doesn't deserve your wrath."Jaden's eyes flickered briefly, a hint of regret fleeting across her features. "Y
Divorced my ex, proposed by billionaire Chapter 101 Powdered Sabotage Unraveled
Rita and Jaden sat across from each other in Jaden's spacious office, a map of the exhibition area spread out before them. "This powder might hold the key to unraveling the mystery," Rita mused, her brows furrowed in concentration.Jaden nodded, his eyes fixed on the map. "It's clear that someone intentionally tampered with the dresses. But why? And how does it connect to the models' asthma?"Rita leaned forward, her fingers tracing the outline of the exhibition booths. "The powder could be a trigger, something that aggravated their asthma and caused the accidents. But who would want to harm them? And why would they target the wedding dresses?"Jaden leaned back in his chair, his expression thoughtful. "We need to find out who had access to the exhibition area that night. Let's start by reviewing the surveillance footage."Rita nodded and pulled out her tablet. "I've already instructed the team to retrieve the footage. We should have it soon."As they waited, Jaden's gaze drifted to a

Percy leaned in, her voice a mere whisper, "Rita, think about it. With your parents' connections, we could make a difference. Save Jaden's company, his reputation."Rita's eyes flickered with a mix of uncertainty and determination. "But Percy, it's not that simple. I can't just walk away from Jaden when he needs me the most."Percy's brow furrowed. "Rita, I understand your loyalty, but we're talking about saving everything he's worked for. And your children's future too. This might be the only way."Rita shook her head, her voice growing firm. "No, Percy. I can't turn my back on him. He's innocent, and I won't let him go through this alone. We've faced challenges before, and we'll overcome this too."Percy's gaze softened as he reached out to hold Rita's hands.
