Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 18. PARTNERS IN WINE
KATERINAVincent looked the calmest I had ever seen him, but that was a very dangerous kind of calm. I mean, I had experienced it first hand. "Have you both been here long?" Mollie asked, immediately picking up the menu. I had only talked to Mollie on the phone… video calls, normal calls and texts… I had never seen her in person.In person, she was every inch of the princess she was made to be. Her skin was the first thing that anyone would notice, and when she took off her sunshades on getting here, I could not stop staring at her lash extension set. Clean, and perfect for her glowing face.I felt like dropping the whole business talk for a minute to ask, 'Girl, who is your lash technician? And what mapping is that?'Her body looked like it had been touched up in some areas and her doctor did an amazing job. A lot of people, mostly men would not be able to tell.. at all. She was extremely gorgeous, blond, and obviously in her early twenties.. having so much money to invest in busine
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 19. “VENT WINES”
KATERINAAfter the incident, I began to make plans on how to start producing white wine just so we could be ahead of Vincent and his team on that… gain some upper hand.I passed by the Winery on a cool evening, watching as the grapes were harvested, pressed and fermented to make our first batch of white wine. The idea had come to me at first, but for some reason, I had chosen to simply make red wine and leave the white wine out. I had decided to just add beverages instead.. what was I thinking?I was too engrossed in the need to make him pay that I felt like I needed to copy exactly what he was doing and try to top it off in my own way.I walked up to one of the workers, returning the smoke she sent my way as I approached her. She looked like a mother. She had wrinkles prominent on her forehead, and she had a worn out dress on.A couple of other people who worked in my wineries dressed like this. They consisted of people from poor provinces who just wanted to make a living and were m
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 20. CARTELS
VINCENTI had just closed the deal with Mollie. I found her a white wine company—Vent Wines. The company was my possession as well, but not all of our investors needed to know that.James was in a good mood, reading the contract over and over with a grin on his face, "You are such a genius. She must have thought she would be getting away with a 50-50 contract. Glad you put her in her place." He gushed."I'll always put her in her place. I offered her a deal to leave this place before I ruined her, but she decided not to take it. It was a stupid choice to make on her part. She would soon realize just how stupid it is." I said, having a small smile on my face.Two knocks resounded on the door, and then a male figure walked in, his head bent. I could even hear his sniffing from where I sat. His hair was cleanly and completely shaven, bald… like he had gotten into a bad barber situation and had agreed to just shave it all off because of a silly mistake.James turned around and on seeing h
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 21. HANDLING KEV
KATERINA"Shaving off his hair was a dick move, Kev. He was simply a messenger. All I asked was for you to deny him the job and send him off, telling him that you knew he was a spy and maybe threatening him a bit. Not this.." I kept eyeing the picture on the screen of my iPad, concerned about the whole thing.I heard Kelvin blow a breath, and I looked up to see him frowning deeply at me. "You are right. He was sent by your ex husband, which is why I sent him back to the messenger with a harmless warning. I did not even torture him or anything. I did not lay a hand on him other than while I was cutting his hair. It is just hair, Kat. It would grow back.""I am sensitive when it comes to hair, Kelvin. You of all people should know that. Everyday I wish I did not have to cut my hair or even dye it to a color that looks extremely foreign to me every time I look in the mirror. Do you know how depressed it gets sometimes? For this video in my phone, the man looks… dejected. It is not just h
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 22. HERE FOR KELVIN
KATERINA There was no way to press charges against Vincent as the whole thing was already too complicated. If there was, I would have pressed charges in a heartbeat, not that a man like Vincent could stay behind bars with how much influence he had. I sighed, turning off the engine of my car as I parked in front of his head company. Boldly written on the top of the magnificent skyscraper was a line, 'POWERS WINES'. I stared pointedly at the inscription for minutes until it turned to what I intended to see sometime from now. 'KAT WINES', inscribed on every single building that he currently owned. I allowed myself to dwell on that for some time before finally opening my car door and getting out. I reached the receptionist section and walked over to the young woman behind the desk. She looked really decent, nothing above 25. I bet she had an amazing love life too, one that I still could not boast of at my ripe age of 27. She smiled on seeing me approach her and it did not loo
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 23. OWEN STRIKES
VINCENT "What the hell do you mean you cannot let him go just yet? You have had your fun, brother. I got what I wanted. You tortured him for threatening me, and the girl could not pick him over her business here. That is all I need, now let the young man leave, Owen." I snapped, standing alone in the conference meeting where we had just finished a meeting. "Unfortunately, I am not done with him. I have unfinished business with the Montegos, and that includes that pretty heiress that you are up against. I have been stalking her for a hot minute. Only a matter of time before I get my hands on her, she looks like she would be a feisty one too, and I love me a good fighter." He laughed into the phone, and I could just hear James screaming into my ear repeatedly, an unhealthy amount of 'I told you so's,'. Maybe I should have been more upset about Owen hinting at keeping Katerina for himself, but somehow I could tell he was bluffing. He hated to show it, but my brother was a lover b
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 24. CLUBBING
VINCENTWe met at one of his many apartments, where the exchange would be done. I held Mae, Owen's soon-to-be baby mama's hand and we both walked to the building. I refused to go upstairs, rather deciding to just wait here to meet him.Owen was downstairs the next minute, stopping at some point to study us both.When he was finally downstairs, in front of us, he focused on Mae, saying, "I asked you to always leave the door locked. I have a spare key if I need to visit. Go through the back door if you hear anyone knock. What happened to all that, hmm? You really want to be killed?""You stopped coming to see me! Stopped taking my calls too, about a week ago. Forgive me if I did not expect you to call still, after ghosting me like that." She crossed her arms over her chest, her face set in a frown.Hmm, interesting.This was the first time I had seen a woman talk to Owen in such manner. It was the first time I had seen anyone talk to him like this. He had a soft spot for her, good for m
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 25. ‘DRUNK ENOUGH YET?’
KATERINA".. come to me when you are drunk enough." I repeated to myself in a mocking tone. "As if."I went back to resume sitting on the table I used to sit alone. I proceeded to get myself drink after drink afterwards, doing everything possible to ignore his presence and that of his bloody assistant; Mr Reeves.I was only here because I had been pressured by a new female business partner to come along to this club just to have some harmless drinks together, only to be dumped off at the entrance as soon as she saw a sneaky link like she had called him. From the way they had both interacted, though, I could tell that he was more than a sneaky link, but whatever rocked her boat, I thought to myself.She really just sighted him at the door and followed him out instantly, simply forgetting everything that had to do with girl code in that moment. We were not close and I so I had no business calling her back from that.I had been tempted to just turn around and go home.. call it a night fr
