My Billionaire Ex-Husband's Regret 245
Chapter 245Riley Burke ~•~“What?” I wasn’t completely shocked. In fact, when I was thinking about it earlier, I knew he would say something like that. But after having a conversation with him, I thought he wouldn’t care about it anymore. I couldn’t stay away from Mason. No, it wasn’t possible. I needed to think of something to convince my father. And I needed to think about it fast. “I can’t let you see him.” My father responded, his tone firm and serious. I froze in my spot, unsure of how to respond. The last few hours were already hell for me because I thought my father didn’t want to speak with me anymore. We were finally on good terms and I didn’t want to ruin it again. “We are already in a relationship.” I lied. My father’s eyes grew wide in shock. “Riley! But you told me you were just friends.” He reminded me of what I said when he first confronted me about it. I nodded my head. “Yes but not until yesterday,” I replied, twirling the hem of my shirt for some sort of

Chapter 245Riley Burke ~•~I was skeptical about going to the room at first, so I stood by the side and pulled out my phone from my bag. I wanted to call my friends, maybe they had an explanation for what was happening. Harper answered the call on the first ring. “Hey, I’ve been trying to reach you.” She said with a hint of urgency in her voice.My heart skipped a bit. “Why? What happened?” After Harper’s explanation, I realized what was happening. As soon as I left the house, my father sent some men to my dorm room. He wanted them to prevent me from getting into my room. He didn’t want me to have anywhere else to stay after I disrespected him. He wanted me to go back to the house. I couldn’t help but scoff. “Are the school authorities aware of this?” I asked Harper. “I have no idea. We decided to wait for you to arrive when we realized what was happening.” Harper replied. “Are you coming inside?” She asked with a hint of concern in her voice. “Yes.” I hung up the call and ke

Chapter 247Olivia ~•~For the longest time, I always thought Riley was the person who Alexander loved the most. He always listened to her and did whatever she wanted. Alexander treated Riley like she was a princess. He would pluck the moon for her if he could. Most times, I was jealous of their relationship. He was close to the boys, but not as close as he was to Riley. Maybe it was because she was his only daughter. I was surprised to see how he reacted to her this morning. I mean, no relationship was perfect. I had witnessed them disagreeing a few times, but I had never seen him so upset when it came to Riley. While I was upstairs, I could hear them arguing. But before I could get downstairs, Riley had already stormed out of the house. Alexander’s jaw was clenched and his eyes were blazing with anger. “Riley has grown wings and she’s really disrespectful.” He said through gritted teeth as I walked towards him. “It’s all my fault. I made her feel too comfortable and now sh

Olivia~•~I was used to checking the news because of the kind of man I married, but for the past week, I’d been avoiding every news outlet. My name was trending and so was my husband’s. To outsiders, it was a good thing but they didn’t know exactly what was going on inside.Ever the perfect wife, I stayed downstairs, waiting for my husband to return as I tried my best to ignore the voices in my head, telling me that my marriage was crumbling.I wanted to save it but I didn’t know how. We both forgot about our anniversary which was a few days ago. Alex was trending because of an expensive necklace he bought at an auction. They all thought it was for me and were waiting to see it on my neck, but our anniversary had passed and he still hadn’t given it to me.It had to be for her.I hated that this was what we had turned into and most especially, I hated that I couldn’t do anything about it. I’d gone shopping earlier today and gotten some random gifts, hoping to salvage it, but I knew w

Olivia ~•~I blinked in confusion. “Why do you want to get divorced?” I asked but he didn’t respond. My eyes scanned through the papers and my pupils dilated in shock as I read the content. Alex had already signed his part and all that was left to finalize the divorce was my signature. I was confused because I wasn’t expecting to get a divorce anytime soon. Sure, our marriage wasn't every couple’s dream, but we got along pretty well. We tolerated each other. We were able to sleep next to each other at night.“What is the meaning of this, Alex?” I asked angrily but Alex still remained quiet.“Why are we getting a divorce? When did you get these papers?” “Today.” Came his short flaccid response. I narrowed my eyes in confusion. “It is because of her, right?” I sniffed, holding back the tears that were threatening to fall down but Alex scoffed. “You want a divorce because of her, right?” I added, my voice cracking slightly. He finally confirmed my suspicions. The necklace he got at

Olivia ~•~I paused for a moment and looked at him. Why was he asking me not to sign the papers anymore? Did he change his mind about moving on with the divorce? There was an awkward silence for a few moments and I looked at him in anticipation, waiting for an explanation. “Let’s wait until after the party tomorrow.” He said, breaking the uncomfortable silence. “We have to appear as a couple at the event.” I swallowed hard. I expected to hear something else. I expected him to say he had changed his mind about the divorce. “Okay,” I said without asking further questions. After that, I dropped the papers and the table and walked out of the room. Alex tried calling me back but I ignored him and walked into the kitchen. I couldn’t believe he wanted me to act like everything was okay. He wanted us to pretend in public. I poured myself a glass of water and took deep breaths to calm myself down. My mind kept on racing with different thoughts. So I was still a married woman but not for

Olivia~•~As I finished getting ready for the party, I stared at my reflection in the mirror and a stunning woman stared back at me. My blonde hair was styled into a messy updo with some loose strands falling down my face. The long red gown Alex and I had carefully selected a few days ago hugged my curves in all the right places. My bright blue eyes sparkled like gold against the bold of the red gown. I looked confident and undeniably sexy. Even if everything was falling apart, the least I could do was to look stunning in public. Satisfied with my look, I wore my pair of gold stilettos and matched it with my gold bag. Alex had already told me we had thirty minutes to leave, so I went downstairs immediately after I was done with my makeup. We were going to the party together. “You look so beautiful.” He complimented me as I got into the back of the car. I didn’t respond and just managed a half-smile. I was getting divorced so there was no need for me to get flattered by his compli

Olivia ~•~“What the fuck?” I seethed angrily through gritted teeth. Amanda looked at me with a puzzled expression while Sandra had a sympathetic expression on her face. “Why are you so upset?” Amanda asked but I ignored her question. She had no clue what was going on. “When was this taken?” I asked curiously, my voice filled with urgency. “Yesterday,” Amanda responded in a confused voice. I looked at the picture again and my face twisted in disgust. Alexander’s ex-girlfriend, Tricia, was in town. Everything started making sense. It became clear why he asked for a divorce. “I ran into her at the mall and I took photos just so you would believe me when I tell you,” Amanda added when I didn’t say anything else. When I first met Alexander, I looked into his life and discovered he had just left a serious relationship months before he met me. Their photos were everywhere on the internet. They looked like the power couple everyone would dream to be. I could recognize Tricia anywhere

Chapter 244Riley Burke ~•~I listened to Rowan’s advice and sent my father an email. It felt so weird as I drafted an apology email for my father. I mean, I could talk to him freely, but now, our relationship was strained. After I sent it, I went over to my mother’s room. “Riley, I haven’t seen you all day.” My mother said as I walked into her room. “How are you doing?” She asked with a hint of genuine concern in her voice. I was a bit confused. Wasn’t she also angry at me? I sat down on her bed while she sat in front of that vanity. “You didn’t want to see,” I replied, my voice tight. “I’m doing fine, how are you doing?”My mother turned around with a puzzled expression registered on her face. “What do you mean by that?” She asked, staring intently at me. “Nobody even cared if I was dead or alive in my room.” My mother laughed. “I just thought you needed space after everything that happened.” She replied, rubbing her hands together. “Or maybe you didn’t.” “Daddy doesn’t want

Chapter 243Riley Burke ~•~“Who is there?” My father’s husky voice echoed from the other side of the door as I knocked multiple times on his office door. “It’s Riley!” I yelled loud enough for him to hear. There was a brief silence before he spoke again. “I’m busy.” My father always had time for me, even if he had so much work to do. He barely dismissed me just because he was busy. He was just giving me subtle hints that he didn’t want to speak to me. But I didn’t care. Even if my feelings were hurt, I was determined to speak to him. I wanted to apologize. I wasn’t happy with the way everyone was avoiding me. “I just need five minutes,” I replied, my voice desperate. “Come back later, Riley.” His tone was firm and serious. Maybe he was actually busy. Letting out a wistful sigh, I turned around and made my way upstairs. I was about to go to my room, but I decided to stop at Rowan’s room. Who knows if he was willing to listen to my apology? I knocked gently on his door. “I

Chapter 242Riley Burke ~•~“I’m sorry I didn’t reach out to you throughout the day, I was occupied with some stuff.” Mason apologized as I answered the phone. It was already dark and we didn’t speak throughout the day. A part of me felt that he wasn’t being honest with me. He wasn’t busy with anything, he just wasn’t interested in speaking to me. Maybe he needed space. Or some time to think. “It’s okay.” I brushed off his concerns with a dismissal wave even if it wasn’t okay. I felt bad because he didn’t speak to me throughout the day when we clearly had a lot to talk about. “How are you doing? What did your parents say?” Mason asked with a hint of concern and curiosity in his voice. “I shouldn’t be going out with the enemy.” I held back a scoff as I told him. “Forget about me. I wanted to apologize for leaving you at the restaurant. I’m really sorry.” “I felt bad about it but I realized it wasn’t entirely your fault.” Mason’s words calmed my frazzled nerves. “At the end of th

Chapter 241Riley Burke ~•~The next day, I spent most of my day inside my room. I had classes but I didn’t want to go to school. I also didn’t want to leave my room because I figured my family was still angry at me. After saying those hurtful words to my father, I haven’t seen him since then. Guilt was eating me up and I wasn’t even ready to face him. I also wasn’t ready to face Rowan. It wasn’t right of me to put his business out there like that. I felt like a terrible person and I didn’t know if they even wanted to speak to me. Normally, if I hadn’t left my room throughout the day, everyone would come and check on me to see if I was okay. But this time, it was different. I didn’t even hear footsteps coming in the direction of my room. I hadn’t even eaten proper food because I didn’t want to go downstairs. I had to manage the snacks I had in my drawer. I didn’t even have any appetite to eat. The news of me and Mason’s date was everywhere on the Internet. Even the college blo

Chapter 240Riley Burke ~•~“Rowan, you did what?” My mother asked in shock. I knew she would be so upset because she always taught Rowan to treat girls with respect. My mother always sang it like a song to him. Rowan’s eyes were flashing with anger as he looked at me. “So you’ve started blabbing your mouth, right? Why do you want to make this about me? You’re the one who went out with someone who tried to destroy our family.” He tried to shift the focus back to me but it didn’t work.“Is Belle aware of this?” My mother asked, her eyes darting between me and Rowan. “Rowan Burke! You actually cheated on her.” She added, her voice laced with disbelief. Rowan nodded. “Yes, and she’s okay with it.” I couldn’t hold back a scoff. “Why won’t she be okay with it when you’ve bribed her with a new car?” I replied before turning to my father. “Why did you even allow him to spend so much money on that girl?” My father, who had been silent, finally spoke. “Enough! This isn’t about Rowan. Th

Chapter 239Mason Craig ~•~I knew asking Riley to be my girlfriend was a long shot, but I didn’t mind. I knew there was a high probability of being rejected, but I wanted to take my chances. I was tired of living in torture every day. I wanted her to be MY girl. I didn’t care about what my parents had to say anymore. I was ready to stand up for myself and prevent them from controlling my life. I could only hope that Riley wanted the same thing too. But I was wrong. Riley stood up and left the exact minute her father called her outside. How did he even know she was at that restaurant? I was stunned. I couldn’t even say anything because I was at a loss for words. I didn’t even try convincing her to stay back for some minutes. I literally just asked her to be my girlfriend. She didn’t give a response. Rather, she stood up and left in the middle of our conversation. In the middle of our date. It was embarrassing. I could only imagine what the staff at the restaurant would be sa
