LORRAINE'S POV

Guess my friend is going to learn my deepest secret the most shocking way possible.

I pour myself a glass of the expensive wine as the excited host leans forward in her seat, seeming as enamoured by my ex-husband as she was the first time she hosted him two years ago. On the night he confessed his love for Aubrey Sinclair.

Rosalie Collins : Lucas, you're known for your monumental wealth and great sense of fashion. But today, you're here to share a different side of you. Tell us about your ex-wife, the woman you say was formerly unknown to the public eye.

Lucas: Yes, two years ago I was secretly married to my beautiful ex-wife, Lorraine Mayers. She was a gentle soul with a heart of gold. That however wasn't enough for me at the time. My parents didn't approve of us. I was forced to push her away and pursue the successful woman they approved of.

    LORRAINE'S POVI walk into the guest room to find Jessica missing from both the bed and the bathroom. She stayed over too long last night and asked if she could use the guest room rather than take a taxi back to her own place. Now she is missing from the bed I let her sleep in. Why would she leave without my knowledge? Because I declined to demand all the prestigious things she desires from my ex-husband despite him offering it all on tv? I doubt she would have left quietly in the night because of that.It would be wrong to go to work without looking for her and ensuring that she is okay. I would carry the blame if she were to go missing. I get my phone and dial her number. She doesn't pick the call so I decide that it's justified to track her cellphone using my tracking app. My eyebrows rise as I notice that it's at Luxe Oasis, a luxurious hotel located downtown. It is owned by none other than my ex-husband. What on earth could she be doing there? It's not like she earns enough t

    I notice that my phone has got over ten missed calls as I make my way back to my car. They are all from my boss and actor Ryder Sterling. I am certain Stephen Vale seeks to know about the things that my ex-husband said in the interview. I do not need to call him as I am heading to work. Actor Ryder Sterling may be calling about the same thing. I cannot predict how far that stupid interview will affect my career, positively or negatively. I receive a load of curious stares upon walking into the designing studio. I imagine how much everyone must be shocked to learn that I, an ordinary designer who had nothing to her name at the start, was married to one of the richest men in the world. I ignore their stares as I stride past the spacious studio and head for my office where find Stephan Vale surprisingly seated in the guest chair. "I was getting worried that I lost you to your rich ex-husband. I am relieved to see you're still with me," he sighs as I step inside. "Why didn't you tell m

    LORRAINE'S POVI make my way to the sewing studio where I find a group of our best tailors already waiting for me with the perfect fabrics to make all the outfits. Stephan Vale must have sent them images of the designs as soon as he saw them. "If I were billionaire Lucas Ravenwood I would want you back too. You got one hell of a valuable talent," one of the tailors says. "It's possible to compliment my work without mentioning that man," I reply in a gentle voice so she doed not think that I do not appreciate her praise. "Understood. But if I were you I would take the precious gifts that he is offering. It's not everyday that the world's richest man regrets breaking up with you," she answers like she knows everything that happened. "I agree. It's not everyday that a cheater seeks his ex-wife with the goal to manipulate her again," I respond. "I am choosing to work for my own precious gifts." I declare."I do not mean to burst your bubble but we both know that not even your impeccab

    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

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 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

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.

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!

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

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.

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

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

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

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.
