My Billionaire Ex-Husband's Regret 7
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

My chest tightened as I read the headlines. "Billionaire Alexander Burke Spotted Cozying Up with Ex-Flame Tricia: Rekindling Old Flames?"My eyes scanned through the article, they even mentioned the fact that I wasn’t present at the dance during his party. The photo accompanying the piece showed Alexander laughing with Tricia. My eyeballs shot out when I noticed Tricia was also wearing the necklace from the auction. I felt like I’d been punched in the gut and I couldn’t breathe. My mind was racing with different thoughts I couldn’t process. My father and siblings were staring at me, their faces mixed with shock and curiosity. “What’s the problem?” David asked, breaking the uncomfortable silence. Before I could say anything, my mother answered. “Her husband is having coffee with another woman.” Her voice was laced with a mixture of disdain and disappointment. She sounded like it was my fault. Like I was the one who drove him to his ex and asked them to meet up. “You can’t even keep

Olivia ~•~I felt a surge of frustration and anger run through my veins. “You’re not going anywhere with me and there’s nothing to fix,” I said, my voice steady. “I’m done trying to please you, I’m done letting you control me. I’m getting a divorce and there is nothing you can do about it.”The words rolled off my tongue like a train with no brakes. From their puzzled expressions, I could tell they were stunned by my response. Without giving them a chance to say anything else, I turned around and walked out of the room, banging the door behind me. Amanda and David rushed out of the dining room to meet me when they heard me walking out. They both had worried looks on their faces. “What happened there?” David asked, his voice laced with concern. “What did you say to them? What did they say to you?” I didn’t want to stay in the house any longer. “I’m going back home, you’ll hear it from your parents.” I dismissed them and picked up my bag from the table before making my way out of t

Alexander ~•~I thought keeping the divorce papers away from Olivia and still staying together would change everything for the better. I hoped she would realize our marriage was at stake and act right. But I was totally wrong. Even if we had known each other for years, the past few weeks felt like we were strangers living under the same roof. No matter how hard I tried to tell her I had no idea Tricia was in town, she didn’t believe me and I had no way to convince her. It was as if we were in a cold war. We couldn’t have a normal conversation anymore because she ended up bringing up the fact that I gave her divorce papers because of my ex-girlfriend. It was getting out of hand and I wanted to be sure if she truly didn’t love me. At first, I thought she would protest against signing the divorce papers and try to be a better wife but it just made everything worse. I asked my assistant to set up a meeting with Tricia. I knew the implications of what I was about to do but I needed t

Olivia ~•~“Diana invited me to hang out at the bar earlier, do you want to go there to unwind?” Sandra asked as I lay there on her lap. Diana was our friend but I wasn’t as close to her as Sandra was. Going to the bar was going to be a good distraction from everything. “Yes, I’ll go,” I replied without hesitation. “That’s my girl.” Sandra’s lip curled into a soft smile. “Let’s get ready.” She said and I stood up from her and sat up straight. Sandra and I were practically the same size so most of her clothes fit me. We went into her bedroom and I began to scan through her closet, searching for the perfect outfit. Suddenly, Sandra threw me a sleek black dress. It was the perfect dress for a night out with friends at a bar. We spent the next hour getting ready, laughing and chatting as we did our makeup and hair. For a moment, I had forgotten that my husband was spotted with his ex-girlfriend. Soon enough, we were ready to leave. I ordered an Uber because Sandra and I were going

Olivia ~•~The next morning, I woke up with a bad migraine. As I tried getting up, my head started pounding. I looked over to the side to see Alex sleeping peacefully. I was a little bit confused because we had been sleeping in separate rooms for the past nights. The events of the previous night were a blur. The last thing I remember was seeing Alex’s car pull up in front of the bar. “You’re finally awake,” Alex said and I turned back to look at him. I thought he was deep in his sleep. “Yeah,” I let out a loud yawn. “What happened yesterday?” I asked. “Nothing, you just slept until now.” He answered, making his way out of the bed. “I’ll make you something to help with the hangover.” I nodded my head. “Okay, thank you.” I desperately needed something because I couldn’t live with a pounding headache. I remained in the room while Alexander went downstairs. I looked around to search for my phone and luckily enough, it was in the side drawer. I reached out to take it and dialed Sand

Alexander ~•~“I don’t fucking care about all those years and I can never believe you.” Olivia’s words were like a slap in the face. It was like she never even cared about me from the beginning. I never should have given her the divorce papers. I didn’t know it would turn her into an entirely different person. I made a mistake and I wished I could go back in time to fix it. I understood her concern about the necklace. It was meant to be for her but I got disappointed when she gave me those mediocre presents, so I held on to her gift instead of giving it to her. “Olivia, I know you’re hurting and I’m sorry for everything I did to cause it.” I could see her eyes blazing with hurt and anger. “I’m sorry about the divorce papers and I’m sorry about meeting up with Tricia.” The room fell silent for a few seconds. “I just need some space,” Olivia said as she made her way out of the bed. “Just stay away from me, I don’t want to see you right now.” With that, she left the room, leaving

Chapter 266Riley Burke ~•~It was fun having my friends over for the weekend. And it was a total flop trying to pretend like I was surprised when they first arrived. They saw right through my pretense. Even if we hadn’t been friends for so long, they knew me well enough. I barely even thought about what I had gone through while they were around. Having them around was a good distraction. I was sad that they had to leave. But I couldn’t do anything about it as I walked them to the car. During their stay, I realized that it was actually my mother’s idea to invite them over. Now it made sense why she was so welcoming. My mother didn’t usually like it when I had my friends over. I mean, my friends from high school. Our family was always under scrutiny, so she didn’t trust anybody. It was nice to see her giving my new friends a chance. The weekend was over and it was a new school week. I hadn’t completely healed but even when I assured my parents that I would be okay, they claime

Chapter 265Riley Burke ~•~As soon as my dad handed me a new phone, I found my friend's phone number and called them immediately. It was already noon and on the weekend, so I was confused about why none of them answered their phones. I mean, those girls were literally always with their phones. I really wanted to speak to them, but I guess I had to wait until later to try calling them again. Maybe they were busy with something. I spent most of my time inside my room and I was getting bored. Normally, my mother didn’t like it when l took my food upstairs but this time, she brought the food to my room by herself. I hadn’t gotten any reason to go downstairs. I needed a change of environment, so I decided to freshen up and head downstairs. I was pretty sure Rowan and Jason were playing video games in the living room. After spending about thirty minutes in the bathroom, I dressed up in my comfortable sweatshirt and shorts before making my way downstairs. “Hey,” Jason said as soon a

Chapter 264Olivia ~•~I wanted to accompany Alexander when he was going to see Maxim, but he refused. I knew that he didn’t want me to see him, but still, he said I was going to see him later. After helping Riley with dinner and giving her medication, I went back to the room to meet Alexander. I hadn’t talked to him since he came back from the station. “Hey, what happened at the station?” I asked him as I walked into the room. He was standing in front of the closet and searching through it. “I have something to tell you,” Alexander muttered under his breath. My interest became piqued. “I’m listening,” I responded as different thoughts ran through my head. Alexander sounded so serious and I couldn’t help but wonder what he wanted to say to me. He took a deep breath and turned around. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you earlier.” He cleared his throat and continued. “You remember when you found out that Maxim was a fraud?” He asked and I nodded, anticipating what he had to say next. “Y

Chapter 263Riley Burke~•~When we finished at the restaurant, my father asked my mother to drive me back home. He wanted to go to the station to see Maxim and the other men who kept me hostage. My mother wanted to accompany him but he refused, saying she would see him later. As soon as my father left, I followed my mother to the car. I couldn’t wait to go back home and see my brothers. I was so excited to see everyone. Being free felt so good. “Riley, I’m inviting the doctor over, so she can do a checkup and give you the necessary treatments you need.” My mother said as I settled down on the passenger’s seat. I hated anything related to hospitals or medical care, but I couldn’t protest against it. I actually needed medication because I was still in pain. My legs and my head were still hurting and I needed the pain to stop. “Sure,” I responded with a smile and my mother nodded. A few minutes later, we arrived at the house. My heart leaped for joy as the security guards open

Chapter 262 Rowan Burke ~•~I loved my sister but I had no idea that her absence would affect me so badly. Ever since I realized she was missing, I couldn’t even focus on anything else. My mind was always racing with different thoughts. What if something bad had happened to her and my parents took so long to search for her? Everyone thought Riley had willingly disappeared but that wasn’t the case. My sister was missing. I couldn’t even talk to anyone or go anywhere. I shut everyone out, including my girlfriend, Belle. Until Riley was found, I was certain that I would be restless. While my parents were at the station, I kept on blowing their phones with constant calls. Most of the time, they didn’t respond. A part of me felt bad because I wanted to be kept in the loop, I wanted to know what was going on, or even if they had gotten a lead. But I knew that they were busy and my calls were distracting them from doing their work. When my mother finally answered her phone, she a

Chapter 261Olivia ~•~Different waves of emotions rushed through me as I saw Riley running in our direction. Relief, joy, and gratitude swirled together, overwhelming me.I was so happy to see her. For a moment, I thought we were at a dead end. I thought she had left the house or the men they caught were probably lying about her whereabouts. She looked so scared but also excited to see us. Before I could even move, Alexander rushed and pulled her in a tight hug. I was still in shock as I watched them reunite. After a few moments, I joined them, turning the hug into a group hug. “Oh my baby, um happy to see you.” I smiled at Riley as we broke the hug. Riley looked like she was struggling to hold back her tears. I could only imagine what she had gone through at the hands of those people. Alexander stepped aside to call the detectives. He wanted them to know that we had seen Riley. While he made the call, I led Riley to the car. As soon as we got into the car, I began asking her

Riley Burke ~•~I had no idea what was happening but as I saw everyone fleeing away from the house, I decided to find a hiding spot too. For a moment, I thought help might have come but I could be wrong. What if it was a rival gang or something who had come to attack them? Last I remember, Maxim was part of the mafia. I couldn’t take any chances. I ran to the garage and stayed inside. I could hear footsteps, I could hear noises but I couldn’t dare look outside. I just slid down and hugged my knees tightly as I waited for the noise to be over. The sound of cars coming in and going out frightened me the most. At first, when the other man abandoned me and ran away, I wanted to run out of the house too. But I wasn’t sure I would be able to escape on my own from such a deserted area. When everything was over, I planned on going back inside the house to find a telephone or something. Maybe I could even find the keys to one of the cars and drive out of the house. I had been inside t

Chapter 259Olivia ~•~Alexander didn’t hesitate, he started the car engine and reversed as fast as he could. But before he could even start driving, we saw that the black SUVs had already been blocked by a new set of policemen who were already on their way. “That’s strange,” Alexander muttered under his breath as he put the car to a stop. “I have no idea who those people are unless the other officers called for backup.” It was a good thing they came because they were able to stop the men. We watched from a distance as they brought them out of their cars and handcuffed them. Some of the other policemen we had followed earlier finally drove out of the gate and stopped where the black SUVs were blocked. I didn’t see any sign of Riley as they brought out the men from the SUV’s. “Alexander, turn around and drive to the house. What if they left her there?” Alexander responded with a nod and turned the car around. He increased the speed of the car as he drove into the compound. As he

Chapter 258Olivia ~•~“They’ve been able to track those men to an address, we’ll be on our way right now,” Alexander announced to me as he came outside to meet me. I wiped off my tears with the back of my hand because I couldn’t stop myself from crying earlier after he left me alone. “I’m coming with you,” I told him before he could even say I should go back home. I was patient enough to sit outside and wait while they were looking for her. But I couldn’t go back home. I needed to go with them to the location. Alexander’s face fell. “Olivia, we don’t know what we are up against. What if the place is really dangerous?” He asked. “It took me a lot to even convince the detectives to let me go with them.” Everything Alexander said to me fell on deaf ears. I was determined to go and nothing any of them could say would make me change my mind. If Riley was in danger, I didn’t mind being in danger too. Alexander let out a defeated sigh when he realized that I wasn’t taking no for an
