Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 27. WHITE WINE
VINCENT"We actually got an invitation for this one. Her white wine tasting. She is really, really keen on being your ultimate rival. Doing everything to copy, and then eventually outdo you." James noted, sliding the invitation to me across the table.I just sat back against my chair, not bothering to check the letter. "The Maggie girl was not able to get the recipe yet?" I asked.He sighed, "It's hard. According to her, not everyone is allowed into the wine farm just like that. Of course, that Katerina girl would have tough safety measures put in place to protect any recipe from going out to just anyone.""Saw a couple of pictures from the conference which was held some days ago. Of Simon and Katerina. They looked like they were attached by the hip throughout the conference. I think I could put Simon to good use there. What do you think?" I asked, deciding to come up with another plan.James sighed, "Yeah, they looked pretty close. But no matter how close they are, that woman is sma

KATERINAThe more people filed out of the hall, the more my chest squeezed in pain.What went wrong?"I had tasted it. I tasted the damn samples before they were brought out. They tasted fine. Now they have a whole different taste. This was not what I approved to be brought out here." Kelvin ranted, practically barking orders at every employee he saw hanging around.He kept talking about firing every single person in the room, while I just stood there, trying to call back a few people before they walked out of the door, and watching others leave because they looked like they could snap my neck if I so much as said a word to them.In all these, I stood with my head still raised high, as pictures and videos were being taken from every angle. A few reporters even walked up to me and shoved their microphones against my lips, "Would you like to talk about what is happening here, ma'am? Some people have concluded that you tried to poison everyone who came here tonight. What do you have to
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 29. DANGEROUS RIDES
KATERINAWe got to the park by 5pm and I already had a smile on my face as soon as I alighted the car we had come with. I had changed into something more casual. A simple sundress and a pair of sunglasses with a pair of cute, pink sandals.I was makeup free now, seeing as we would just simply go home from here and I was putting on sunglasses too.I stood on the grass, wrapping my arms around my chest as I looked around. The park was not as noisy as it would have truly been if there were more children.Understandably, it was already late and they had school tomorrow.. most of them, at least. A boy and girl exchanging flowers a few inches from me caught my attention. They both looked like they could be three or four at most.The thoughts of the child I had lost flooded my mind again. I bit down on my bottom lip, watching them longingly. I had wanted that child so bad; he or she would have been the only blood-related family I would have left. But Vincent had his mistress take away the dr
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 30. CATCHING A COLD
VINCENTI had seen her exit the park after yelling at her lapdog, Sawyer, dressed in a short sundress and sandals with some sunglasses to complete the look. Simple, yet managing to catch my full attention. I went to the park occasionally for some charity business. It was why I had been there this evening. Imagine my surprise when I saw her there, having a good time with Sawyer, almost like she had gotten over her loss so quickly. I did not know what I was expecting when I saw her again, but it was definitely not a woman who laughed and played like there was only today left to live.I found myself staying there for longer than I had intended because of her. James , who had come with me was just glad that we got to stay a while longer, going off to find innocent women to chat with.I had just sent James a text that I was done here when I saw them in another corner, with some other people. James eventually came to me and with a huge on my face, I turned around and started to make my way
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 31. STORM
KATERINAIt was a miracle that I had not died of cold by the time we got to his house. My sundress clung to my body like second skin at this point.. not that I cared about that too much. The main thing on my mind was how to freshen up and change into a new set of clothes.I had rejected Vincent's clothes back then, yes, but it was mostly because I loathed the man. Accepting a ride from him was already a step too far, and I would not have done it if I was not convinced that I would actually die if they left me alone there.Some boys had come up to me right after Vincent and his assistant left, and they dragged my purse off my hands before I could even fully grasp what was happening. It took a while before I could get over my shock and run to Vincent's car before they came back for me when they realized they had stolen an empty purse, and to top it all off—an inexpensive one.I was simply thankful the attack had not gone beyond that and I was at a shelter for the night, even if it was a
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 32. MISTAKES
KATERINAI woke up as early as I had wanted, and I slipped the contacts back on, ready to leave his house already. I slipped my semi-wet sundress into a small bag, folding it properly. Then, I pulled the curtain open a little to see that the storm had stopped and I started to walk briskly to the door.I planned to leave a message with his butler, so I closed the door to the room I had come out of as gently as I could, not wanting to alert anyone."You would have to be more discreet than that." Vincent's house almost had me jumping out of my skin at the sound of it. I spun around to face him, a frown marring my facial features.He looked slightly refreshed, like he had a bit of sleep but not too much to say it was a good night's rest. Typical Vincent; the most workaholic man I had ever come across, if I was being honest. In a white singlet and multicolored pyjama pants, he looked like he had just escaped being trapped in some magazine. The man's body was ripped to perfection, coupled
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 33. ENTER, WHITNEY
VINCENTSo fucking sensitive and goddamn pliant when touched…Who would have thought?I could not stop thinking of the taste of her lips and the sound of her moans as we ground against each other. She was perfect and yet so fucking wrong. We were both wrong, and what had happened was a mistake like she had noted. Did not mean I would not do it again if I got another chance.I sat behind my desk, letting thoughts of a short-haired woman distract me from work, when there came the sound of knocking on the door. I sat straighter on the second knock, after which the door opened and Whitney appeared at the entrance.She had a huge smile on her face, one which I was not the least bothered to return."Hey pookie! I've missed you so much, you know… I—""Unless you want to be thrown out right now, I suggest that you keep your voice down, Whitney. This UD s work space." I warned, and her lips puckered in a pout."Oh come on, I'm not even that loud." She plopped on the seat across mine and propp
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 34. BEACH BONDING
KATERINAI saw her again at a beach.After looking all over New York and beyond for Whitney, she simply appeared in front of me at a beach where I had gone to relax, offering me one of the drinks in her hand.She was still as sexy, tall and fit as ever, and above all, she looked like she had not aged a day. Her skin was a bit tanner now, and she also looked like she added a few pounds, but the weight went to all the right places in their right proportions.I dragged my eyes away from her body as it now seemed like I was gaping at her, and I looked down at the drink in her hand.It was one of those drinks that was sipped with a straw, inside a coconut pod. I accepted the drink with a half-smile and played along,"Thank you, babe. How did you know I was actually thirsty?" I asked with a small laugh. She shrugged, smiling,"Instincts, I guess. And I just needed an opportunity to talk to you, to be fully honest." She plopped beside me, on the beach chair by my side. "Oh. Hopefully there
