Revenge of the discarded ex-wife The Design
LORRAINE'S POVAnother one of Jessica's messages pops up on the screen of my phone after I refused to pick her calls. I can see the words, "I am so sorry", even without opening the message. She chose to betray our friendship for selfish reasons. And I refused to bring her with me on this epic tour. "Are you really uninterested in taking your ex-husband's money?" Actor Ryder Sterling's female co-star curiously asks after the make up team gets done with making her and her fellows as pretty as possible.It's my first time being in London to promote my own designs and in the company of Rogue Justice movie directors and their cast. They wanted me to accompany the actors and actresses on the red carpet simply because the public will want to see me there, thanks to my ex-husband's and Aubrey Sinclair's interviews that made the entire world curious about who I really am. Now I have to stay on guard for the paparazzi who stalk me everywhere. So far I am hating the company I am in now. Proud

LUCAS RAVENWOOD'S POV"I will kill myself if my husband divorces me," former actress Aubrey Sinclair declares.My jaws clench in rage as I read the lengthy newspaper headline. I should kill her myself, shut her foolish mouth forever. It's funny that even after I kicked her out she still claims to be my wife. What would Lorraine think of me if I killed her? That I am a heartless monster? I only want to protect her. Door opens and Lorraine's friend, Jessica, walks into my office with a laptop in hand. I almost mistake her for Lorraine as she is dressed in a dress similar to the one Lorraine wore the last time we met. She also dyed her hair from blonde to pitch black and put it on a ponytail just like Lorraine. But her face would need a million surgeries to actually look like Lorraine's.I am getting bored by her lack of helpful information since I hired her to get me every new information about Lorraine. I also doubt that she can have imagined a single good design to deserve a contra

LORRAINE'S POVThe movie's premier after party is filled with more popular and rich people than there were on the red carpet. Ryder Sterling stayed by my side throughout to make sure that no one annoys me with questions about my rich ex-husband. But once the streaming of the movie started, his relentless chaser, actress Tamara, came to sit by our side, looking a bit drunk. The actor keeps asking for my opinion on his acting skills in every scene he is in and it seems to be pissing her off. She leans closer to him and gently brushes his arm with the tips of her fingers."That's the best kiss I have ever had in my entire acting career. You're one hell of a skilled kisser, Ryder," she says when their kiss plays on the screen. "I must have done the best for the movie considering how bad your breathe smells," he cruelly replies."What?!" the actress gasps. "Nothing. Just shut up and allow us to enjoy the movie," he responds in an even more menacing tone and she finally falls quiet. We

LORRAINE'S POVActor Ryder Sterling's stately home looks like a striking blend of a medieval palace and a modern villa. It has a central gatehouse, towers and turrets reminiscent of medieval castles.However, modern touches such as sleek floor-to-ceiling windows and metallic accents bring a contemporary touch to what would have otherwise been a traditional architecture."What do you think?" the actor asks as we step out of the car and I get a even more clearer view of his childhood home. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth no doubt."This looks like King Uther Pendragon's palace," I say teasingly. "Are you sure your parents will approve of your dressing?" "They will love the design just like everyone else," he assures with a smile. "Let's go. A good dinner awaits." I nod and follow him towards the house.He made a call on our way here to let his parents know that he was bringing a guest home. A six feet tall statue of a middle aged man stands a few steps away from the gran

Lorraine's Pov"Does she have to date Ryder in order to work with him?" Helen questions in a bitter tone. "You still haven't gained control of your envy, huh?" Ryder angrily responds. "I was just pointing out that -" "Shut up, Helen! Your lack of manners and reason has always been a disgrace to this family!" her father snaps. The girl grudgingly falls quiet and carries on to gulp down a chalice of wine. "Earlier on I checked your Instagram and noticed that you love cheesecake. I asked my servants to prepare one for your dessert," Mrs Sterling informs with the sweetest of smiles before motion one of the servants to bring the cake. The servant bows before rushing off. He returns carrying a plate with covering and places it in front of me. "Enjoy, my lady," he bows and steps back in the line. I pick up the cover and a charred smell fill the air. The servants appear to panic as the members of the family frown with rage."You truly have lost all respect! How dare you ruin the one t

LORRAINE'S POVI wake up to a loud knock on the wooden door. It's a little earlier than the time Ryder said he would wake me today. I roll out of the big bed and get to to door. "Leon?" I exclaim after opening the door and finding the young man waiting on the other side. "Shh! Ryder will kill me if he learns I came to you," he says in a low tone. "Okay. You want to come inside?" I ask."Not now," he answers. He pulls out a card from his pockets and hold it out for me to take. "You must be concerned and curious about the things you saw last night. I do not agree with the traditions of this family either. That's wht I came to warn you that there are many more stranger things you're yet to know about," he says. "What are they?" I curiously ask. "I don't have time to tell you everything, dear. But you can take my card and call me later," he answers. I take his card. He smiles before turning and walking away. I go back in the room and quickly shower and dress before walking out to

Lorraine's PovI pick up the few belongings I had left and make my way out again. This time walking strait towards the gate. I must disappear before anyone notices me."Lord Gregory Sterling asked me to get him a bottle of Corton-Charlemagne wine," I lie to the single guard at the gate who nods and opens it for me to leave. It's time to return home and hope that my mind will forget the horror I just witnessed. I really wonder if actor Ryder Sterling is truly helpless against his family's cruelty against servants or their outdated thinking. Has he ever really tried to change them?* * * * * *LUCAS RAVENWOOD'S POVI had assumed that I would be interested in any information that contains my Lorraine's name, but I frown as I read the message that Lorraine's friend, Jessica, sent me just seconds ago."What if you found a Lorraine that doesn't resent you, but instead loves you with her whole heart? Would you give her the chance to heal your broken heart?"I thought she was simply trying t

LUCAS RAVENWOOD'S POV"We found him with the Italian mob. They gave him to us as soon as they heard he was disloyal to you," Greg informs after opening my car door for me and shutting it. He leads the way into the old warehouse that we used as a temporary home for the trafficked humans I bought before they were later freed to either work for me or return to their families.Doors open and the sounds of desperate screams meet out ears. I had no doubt that my gang will have tortured him. They were mad that he betrayed us for little cash, knowing well that the video he filmed would be used to damage my reputation and would as well put the lives of those I care about at risk. The man's face is bloodied when we reach the scene. He stumbles forward and falls to his knees in front of me."Sir! Mr Ravenwood . . . I am extremely sorry. I will never betray you again! Please . . . let me live!" he begs.I scoff. "You betrayed me for a few bucks and you think I would take you back? I should cut o

LORRAINE'S POVMy laptop is on as I draw more designs for our brand's opening party. Luca Romanov stands by my side, staring at the sketches with interest. Actor Ryder Sterling is getting his man of the year award tonight, but I couldn't attend the event as there is so much that needs my attention. The big building now has our brand's name and trademark. In a few days we will be holding the launch party. Ryder Sterling said we would have invitation cards sent out by then to every one of the country's elite. Some will attend, some will not. Because right now everyone's attention is on the world's newest hero, billionaire Lucas Ravenwood. The sales of his brand have skyrocketed, with the coat he personally modeled leading in the number of purchases. I am sure he is dying to release the designs that Jessica stole from me. He promised I would have a hundred percent royalties. But I would rather have my new brand sell the outfits, regardless of how little the sales will be.We would have

LUCAS RAVENWOOD'S POVMy office phone hasn't stopped ringing for ten minutes since the actual truth about my underworld dealings aired. Every television channel is fighting to be the first to have an interview with me.I already got what I wanted, but people will find it strange if I do not address the things they are curious about. Especially considering the fact that I shot a man in that video. "Your plan worked perfectly. Ryder Sterling helped strengthen your repute and boost the sales of your businesses. But you will have more enemies now more than ever before," Greg says. "Did you find that traitor?" I ask, referring to the stupid man that betrayed us by filming a video for actor Ryder Sterling. "He had fled out of the country even before the news aired. Your best men are on him though. A week won't pass before we find him," Greg answers. "What should be done when he is found?" he asks. "Kill the idiot," I order and my assistant nods in approval.I paid the man well. He was i

LORRAINE'S POVI hand Ryder Sterling a glass of wine as soon as we walk into my apartment. My apartment is not as luxurious as the hotels he prefers to sleep in. But it's his choice to be here."I ordered food for us," he informs after taking the drink. "We can relax and talk about our future," he suggests with a seductive smile. "I do not mind talking about business," I state. "What do you think of the name Gracewear as our brand's name?" I ask, taking my seat on the couch."Fantastic," he happily approves while taking a seat beside me. "Your creativity never fails to amaze me." He leans in and pecks the side of my neck. "I would give up anything to be more than friends with you.""We are business partners," I remind. "Would you consider letting us be romantic partners some day? If . . . I turn out worthy of your love, of course," he asks.He is rich and almost as good-looking as my ex-husband. There is a chance he could make a perfect boyfriend. But love is something I swore neve
Revenge of the discarded ex-wife The Rich Saviour
LORRAINE'S POVI watch Ryder Sterling's eyes fill with fury as he glares at my ringing phone."Do not answer that devil, Sarah. He may be seeking to threaten you," he urges. "I have to answer the call. He has got my designs," I tell him."You gave him?" "No. Jessica stole from me and tried selling to him. There is also the jacket that his brand released at the time I started designing for you. I forgot it in his house the day he asked me to leave," I answer. The actor watches me with astounded eyes. "And you didn't think of telling me this all this time we have been friends?" he asks in disappointment. "I am an independent woman, Ryder. It was my burden to carry," I answer before picking my ex-husband's call.I do not move away to avoid raising the actor's suspicion that I am hiding something from him. "Hello dear. How are you doing?" his voice sounds so calm and quite enchanting. Is he not worried about the disgraceful news of his illegal business as well as the calls for his ar
Revenge of the discarded ex-wife The Actor's Home
LORRAINE'S POVWho on earth throws a party to celebrate the fall of another person? Ryder Sterling must have been obsessed with destroying my ex-husband to have seen it fit to invite me and his rich, famous friends to this little celebration. It's the first time I have set foot in his stunning house. It's not exactly a huge mansion, but the interior has quite the exquisite decor. For some reason he has got a sculpture of Julius Caesar as the centerpiece of his spacious ballroom. There is pretty of expensive wine and good music. Some guests even brought gifts to congratulate the actor for successfully defaming mighty billionaire Lucas Ravenwood. I have spotted several of my ex-husband's old enemies looking quite exhilarated. I am sure some of them sponsored the protests that are now calling for Lucas Ravenwood's arrest and prosecution.The actor smiles proudly as the guests shower him with praise. I personally think that it's too soon to be celebrating. It's highly doubtful that Luca
Revenge of the discarded ex-wife Evil Intent
LORRAINE'S POVMy eyes go wide as soon as I open the gift box. The same heels that I sold this morning are inside. What on earth?!A message from Lucas Ravenwood pops up on my phone as if he was waiting for the exact moment that I would have the box open. "Hello dear. You should have asked me for finances instead of selling my gifts. You can keep both the money and the shoes." The message reads. So the lady that bought the heels wasn't really an interested customer? Was she one of his insanely loyal employees? How did he even know that I was selling the heels?Does he have his criminal spies following me? I do not exactly feel safe. Hopefully he will have more worrying issues to focus on when the news of his human trafficking business airs on every popular tv channel. He will no longer have so much finances to waste. I walk to the safe drawer where I kept the heels before and put them back. For the first time I notice the murder mystery book that Ryder Sterling gifted me after I de
Revenge of the discarded ex-wife Her True Angel
LORRAINE'S POV"I would beg you to keep the shoes if they weren't from that demon. Did he really think he can buy back your love?" Ryder Sterling asks as the team of auctioneers lead us to a secluded room where our rich buyer is supposed to make the payment for the shoes. I had no idea that there were such elite auction events until the actor told me about this one. The heels sold for a staggering amount of fourteen million dollars, which is nearly double the price that they are actually worth. I do not need to sell anything else to increase my contribution. "Is there something else that he gave you that I am not aware of?" Ryder Sterling asks. "No of course," I reply even though it shouldn't be his business. "Will you sell the mansion as well?" he asks. "No. I will figure out what to do with it," I answer. "Let me know when you are ready to get rid of it and need my assistance," he offers.I nod. The auctioneers direct the rich woman who made the last bidding to deposit the fin

LORRAINE'S POV"You didn't knock," I say. "I could have been naked.""Sorry. But I would not mind your nakedness. You would make a pretty model, you know that, right?" he answers, striding farther into the room.Of course I don't want him here when Luca is cooking in my kitchen. Why do they all have a habit of showing up unannounced? He places a bottle of wine on the table in front of me. "We should celebrate. The great fall of billionaire Lucas Ravenwood and his brand," he says with the happiest of smiles. "So the media is willing to air your evidence?" I ask."They are extremely excited. Once the video is verified to be authentic the story will air tomorrow. The entire world will know who their true enemy is," he answers.So my ex-husband is really going to lose his precious crown of great fame and probably get sued by families of victims of his human trafficking business. I doubt he would still keep sketches of my designs after his reputation gets terribly damaged."We must take
