My Billionaire Ex-Husband's Regret 1
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

Alexander ~•~ I left Olivia alone at the table to welcome my friends and some of the other guests. I was gone for a while but I knew she was good when I looked over and saw she had company. Her best friend and sister were seated with her. I spent a few more minutes and when I finally decided to go back to meet her, I saw her walking out of the hall with Sandra. Olivia looked so upset and I couldn’t help but wonder what the reason was. I tried holding her back but she ignored me. I let her go outside because I didn’t want to cause a scene. Confused, I walked over to the table, and luckily enough her sister, Amanda, was still there. “What’s going on with Olivia?” I asked Amanda but she remained silent. “Is she okay?” I added. “I don’t think so,” Amanda responded and I narrowed my eyes. “What’s the problem?” I asked curiously. Olivia had agreed to act like everything was okay at the party and she seemed fine when we first came in. “She found out your ex-girlfriend

Olivia ~•~My best friend woke me up the next morning. I was even surprised at how I slept peacefully the whole night. “Are you ready to go back home?” She asked and I sighed when I realized what I was going to face when I returned. “Just a minute,” I said and she nodded before making her way out of the room. I switched on my phone and the first thing I did was to call Amanda because she left me a text and asked me to call her immediately after I saw it. “Hey.” She said in a slightly groggy voice as she picked up the call. “Did I wake you up?” I asked when I heard how sleepy her voice sounded. “You asked me to call you and it looked urgent.” “Yeah yeah, I wanted to talk to you about Alex.” I sat upright on the bed. “What about Alex?” I braced myself for what she was about to say. It was probably about the mess I caused after leaving the party. “I think he was telling the truth about Tricia.” She said and my face scrunched up in disgust. She was my sister and she was meant to

Olivia ~•~“What do you even want? You gave me the divorce papers and now you’re talking about how I’m about to throw five years of our marriage down the drain?” Alex stopped and ran his hands through his hair. “It’s just funny how you jumped at the opportunity the first chance you got.”My lips parted and I blinked. I couldn’t believe he was trying to play the victim card. “I know what you’re trying to do, Alex.” I pointed at him in disbelief. “You got caught, right? I realized you did it because of Tricia, and now you’re trying to put the blame on me. Like everything is my fault.” “For the umpteenth time, I had no idea Tricia was in town and this has nothing to do with her!” “I don’t believe you, Alex,” I screamed at him. “You’ve always wanted Tricia, haven't you? She’s back in your life, you can have her now!” “I’ve told you numerous times, I didn’t want Tricia. It was always you.” He said, his voice filled with frustration. “You can’t let go of just one mistake? It’s all in t

Chapter 255Riley Burke ~•~I summoned every last ounce of strength in my body and dragged myself to the door.Even if he wanted to trap me, the least he could do was provide me with food and water, so I wouldn’t die of hunger and thirst. As I got close to the door, I banged on the door multiple times, yelling at the top of my voice for someone to open up. I spent about five minutes hitting the door but nobody answered the door. I didn’t give up though. I kept on hitting the door until I finally heard footsteps coming in the direction of the room. I moved back a bit as I waited in anticipation to see who would open the door. They twisted the door knob and slowly pushed the door open. It was the same man who had given me a glass of water the first time. “Please can I have something to eat and drink?” I pleaded, not caring about the fact that I had been kidnapped. My stomach rumbled whenever I realized that I had been there for two days without food. I needed to eat something a

Chapter 254Olivia ~•~After finding out that Riley’s car had been at the gas station for over two days, the detectives told us to hold on as they requested access to the CCTV from the first day. Alexander tried his best to comfort me but I couldn’t stop crying. Riley wouldn’t just dump her car at a random gas station. The situation was even worse than I had imagined. I couldn’t help but wonder how my baby was feeling. I couldn’t help but wonder where she was. I prayed silently that she was okay and we would find her soon. Amanda, Maya, Rowan, and Jason were blowing up my phone but I couldn’t bring myself to respond to any of them. I didn’t want to believe that my daughter was missing, so I didn’t want to have to tell them that she was actually missing. After what felt like an eternity, the detective came outside again. “Come in.” He gestured for us to come into his office with him. When we got inside, he showed us footage playing on his computer. My hands flew to my mouth as I

Chapter 253Riley Burke ~•~I started moving back slowly as he walked into the room. I never liked him. I never imagined I would even see him again. What did he want from me? Why did he take me? What did he plan on doing with me? I screamed as he came closer, a bloodcurdling scream. “Get away from me, you monster!” I yelled at the top of my voice as tears flowed down my face, as though it was a waterfall. “It’s nice to see you again. After so many years.” He said as his lips curled into a mischievous smile. “You’ve grown into a fine young woman. I mean, it was hard for me to recognize you at first.” “What do you want from me, Maxim?” I asked, trying to steady my voice. “Please, let me go!” I pleaded, my tone desperate. Yes, Maxim was the person who kidnapped me. I had forgotten about his existence and was shocked to see him come inside the room. Maxim was one of my mother’s boyfriends who turned out to be a fraud. Rowan and I never liked him. We also made it clear that

Chapter 252Olivia ~•~It had been over two days and we still hadn’t heard from Riley. The last time I spoke to her, she agreed to come back to the house. I canceled everything I had planned for that day just to wait for her, but she never showed up. I tried calling her numerous times but her number was unavailable. I made sure to call everyone I knew to ask if she was at their house, but they claimed that they hadn’t seen her. I didn’t even know how to feel. Did she ghost us again just to teach us a lesson or was she actually hurt? I was feeling restless the first day and decided to stay calm, hoping she would reach out later, but she didn’t. I was able to get some sleep the first time but on the second night, I couldn’t even close my eyes for up to five minutes. I was up thinking about my daughter. Her friends from school claimed they hadn’t heard from her either. Even Harper, her closest friend, had no idea where she was. She said Riley told her that she was on her way back
My Billionaire Ex-Husband's Regret 251
Chapter 251Riley Burke ~•~Everywhere was stark dark! The last thing I remember was when I stopped to get gas at the gas station. I honestly couldn’t remember anything else. My head was spinning and I couldn’t think properly. I had no idea where I was or how I even got there. My eyes were open but the room was dark and I couldn’t see anything. I tried to move my hands around but I couldn’t touch anything. It was as though I was in an empty room. The cold ground sent shivers through my spine. I had never felt that way before. I tried to stand up and make my way to an exit, but I couldn’t even get up. My legs were hurting. In fact, my entire body was hurting. What was actually going on? I searched my pockets to see if I could find my phone. I had kept it there after I called my brother to send me some gas money. My heart started racing as I couldn’t find my phone. I still had no idea where I was. I was extremely confused by what was happening. Maybe it was a dream. I deci

Chapter 250Riley Burke ~•~What was I thinking about lying to Amanda? Of course, my mother would call her to tell her about what was happening. I didn’t think anything through, I just did the first thing that came to my mind. I felt bad as I saw her disappointed look. I shouldn’t have lied to her. I didn’t even want to watch the movie anymore. I couldn’t look her in the face. I just wanted to sleep until the next day. Everyone thought I was missing but my father didn’t even bother calling me. I felt so terrible. Didn’t he love me anymore? I just wanted to cry myself to sleep. When I was done bathing, I dried my body with a clean towel and changed into the nightwear that Amanda had handed over to me earlier. I decided to sit for a while before heading to the living room. My mind raced with different thoughts as I sat down on the bed. Was there any possibility that my father would have an open mind about Mason? Was our argument ever going to end? Was Mason even worth all the
My Billionaire Ex-Husband's Regret 249
Chapter 249Olivia ~•~I was worried! I was so worried. It was getting dark and Riley wasn’t responding to my calls. I even asked her brothers to call her, but she didn’t pick up either. My stomach churned as different scenarios played in my head. What if something bad had happened to her? I even tried reaching out to roommates but none of them had seen her. I was starting to panic and I couldn’t even do anything else. “Alex, you see what you’ve caused, right? You pushed her away and now nobody has any idea where she has gone.” I said through gritted teeth as I met Alexander in his office. There was a hint of guilt in his eyes. “I’m sure she’s safe. She just doesn’t want to answer because she is still upset.” He sounded like he was so sure. “If anything happens to my daughter, I’ll hold you responsible,” I replied before storming out of his office. If they didn’t have that stupid fight, I wouldn’t be in such a situation. I couldn’t even go to bed until I was sure she was oka

Riley Burke ~•~Mason stayed with me throughout the whole period while I tried to figure out what I was going to do. I called my father and asked him to give me access to my bank accounts and dorm room, but he refused. He wanted me to go back home, but I wasn’t going to do that. I was upset. After everything, Mason offered to take me to his house, but I couldn’t accept his offer. Instead, I decided to go over to my Auntie Amanda’s house. “Are you sure you don’t want to come with me?” Mason asked for the umpteenth time as he walked me to my car. “You shouldn’t be worried about my parents, they don’t really care if I go out with you anymore.” I rolled my eyes. I wished my father felt the same way. “It’s fine,” I assured him. “My parents would be more upset if they found out I followed you home. I just have to find a way to fix this situation.” Mason let out a defeated sigh. “Fine, but if you need money for anything, don’t hesitate to call me.” He continued. I nodded. “Sure.” I
My Billionaire Ex-Husband's Regret 247
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
