VINCENT "What do you mean? This is a chance for her to start paying for all she has done to us! Most importantly, for letting you bear the guilt of not one but two deaths all because of some stupid rivalry you barely know anything about." James cried out, pacing the room with annoyance written all over his face.I was still busy trying to get to her. Until she had cut the call too many times on me and I just slammed the phone on the table, slowly looking up at James who had jerked on hearing the sound and stopped pacing.I stopped glaring at him after a while, sighing as I relaxed further into the seat. This was not his fault, I decided. She was the one who had refused to pick up all my calls.I had to see and talk to her soon enough.Whitney was on some vacation, and she did not tell me who she was out with, but I already knew it was one of her numerous sugar daddies. In fact, I was a little too sure of who exactly it was.Pope Lawson.Yes, a Pope. She thought she could be sleek wh
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 83. SHALL WE SPEAK?
KATERINA".. can I know the dress details? It looks stunning, really. I feel like I need to have it on me at least once in a lifetime." One of the trophy wives I had sat with gushed and I just forced a smile, trying to keep mg attention on them.I kept wondering if Vincent was going to show up for this party or he would send a representative. From what I knew about him, he would most likely send a representative; the man never liked to be stressed.But at the same time, he was full of surprises.I did not want him here. I did not feel like being confronted by him over the truth yet. I did not feel like explaining why I was not dead as he had thought.. why his plan did not work and how far I actually intended to go with my payback. But I had missed out on two major events in the past few days already because I was hiding from him, and I could not miss this one again.I answered the woman who was sitting across me, "Actually, my dress is custom made, but I can give you my stylist's cont
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 84. TELL THE TRUTH
VINCENTHer eyes were wide with surprise at first, and then then they became angry. She was not wearing the contacts tonight. Almost like after I had seen her real eyes, she could not care less about anyone else.Just went further to prove what I already knew. This woman was an imposter; she was Grace. My wife was not dead as I had thought."Or should I call you Grace?" I asked quietly, slipping my hands into my pocket as I studied her face. She had changed a lot, but now I could see through all the changes clearly. Her face had lost fat, her body too. Her skin was tanner, and she had probably gotten a nose job done so her nose would look different. She had done a lot just to hide her identity from me.I needed to know why."What the hell are you on to?" She shot back, of course, not backing down without a fight.. or in this case, an argument.I walked closer to her and she just watched me move, her back pressed against the iron railing behind her."I know you are Grace. I want to kn
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 85. HIS WAY
KATERINAI could not stop thinking about it. Even now, my stomach did a flip as I recalled his exact words;'… I would make you mine, just like I am yours."Did he really mean it or was he just playing with my feelings, since he suspected already that I was Grace.. he probably felt like the easily manipulated girl he used to know was still somewhere inside me.I shook my head while I stood in front of the mirror, as a means to get the reoccurring thoughts of the man off my head.I stared directly into my eyes as I said to myself in a hushed tone, "Stop thinking about him, girl.. what the hell are you doing?"Then with a loud groan, I rolled my eyes and started to storm off, towards my bed though.Today was the day Whitney would finally return from her forbidden affair with a whole Pope. It surprised me really, the kind of audacity that woman possessed. And why was Vincent confessing love to me when he had her?I could not wait to tell her all about it and watch him deny, deny, deny un
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 86. HI, I’M GRACE
VINCENTShe sat across me in the bar; we were both seated at the bartender table and we had been silent for long minutes since I arrived after her.For the first few minutes, I was okay with just watching her face, amused that she had respected my choice and come without makeup like I had asked. Her skin was glowing under the dim lighting and her blue, sleeveless mini dress was glued to her body in such a manner that I momentarily wanted to take its place.Hell, fuck the 'momentarily' bullshit.I tore my eyes away from the thin straps of the dress that looked like they were barely hanging on for dear life due to the fullness of her tits, and I glanced back at her face."Are we going to talk or are we going to avoid each other's eyes all night?" I questioned, breaking the annoying silence. Of course, she was the only one doing the avoiding. I was not doing any of that shit.She shrugged, flashing me a fake, irritated smile, "Well, which one would you like to have?"I smiled back, then
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 87. REVEALING THE TRUTH
KATERINAHis expression did not falter, but what did I expect? Kelvin said he knew already.I took a deep breath and asked after a few moments of silence, "You are not going to say anything?""The baby.. how did you lose the baby?" He asked and I froze with anger. Did this man really want me to start recounting the traumatic events of my past for his own pleasure, like he did not orchestrate it?"You know exactly how I lost the baby. You gave that order, so do not go there." I warned, slipping the glass towards the bartender again who glanced at Vincent as if trying to get a confirmation from him."Get me another fucking glass! I'm paying for my shit, not him! If I say I want another glass, give me another fucking glass, he does not own me!" I yelled at bartender who raised both hands up in surrender before going to mix me another drink."You will not be paying for a damn thing while I am seated with you tonight." Vincent's voice caused me to turn to him and I scoffed at that."Well,
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 88. BOTH OUR TEARS…
KATERINA My back of my eyelids pricked with tears as I was completely stunned by every word that had left his mouth. I moved away from his hold, placing my palm on my forehead while shaking my head in disbelief."You are a liar. You are such a liar.. how dare you lie to me?" I asked, turning back to him, shaking all over. He had tears rolling down his cheeks at the same time I did and instead of melting my heart, it just angered me even more.I walked up to him and pounded my fists against his chest until I was sure I had caused a heartache. He stood there and took it, only now wiping his tears with a finger each under both eyes."You can call me whatever you want. You can hate me however you like.. for now, but I need you to believe me when I say I had nothing to do with what happened to you. I would never think of causing you such amount of pain. It was all Whitney and maybe Da'ana. I am willing to take down everyone who was involved in this if you would let me." He pleaded, but I

VINCENT"Don't you think you are going too far with this? I mean, we released Kelvin… and now you are saying we must help her fight you? Just because you realized she is Grace?" James asked, arms akimbo.I slammed my fist against my desk then started to walk towards James with intimidating steps. He stood his ground, staring me dead in the eye, even if I saw his throat bob once. I had corrupted the fucker too much."She is not just Grace. She is my wife—was my wife. I never stopped loving her. I need to make things right. From now on, you do as I say when it comes to her. When it comes to her, we are not friends. I am your boss and you are my personal assistant. No questions. Do you understand?" I asked, and he looked like he had a lot to say… even opened his mouth to speak but eventually scoffed and kept his mouth shut."Noted, Sir. What do you want me to do?" I wanted to comment on his attitude but I was already speaking too much today, so I just decided to let him know just how mu

KATERINAWhitney refused to tell us anything more after that. We stood there, threatening her with all manner of things, but she never budged. She just sat there, smiling crookedly and laughing occasionally.I finally convinced Vincent to leave there and we both went home, hoping to figure out what exactly Whitney meant with everything she said about Ava ourselves.This morning, I woke up in his arms and peered up to see that he was awake already, focused on his phone. He had wrinkled lines in his forehead and dark circles around his eyes, and I could not help but feel a twinge of worry for him.The man had been working so hard these days and somehow, I knew that it had something to do with what Whitney had said about his child.Ava was acting… well, she was still detached from her father but she was every bit the bubbly child around me. Her nanny lived with us now, and continued to take care of her, in better living conditions… it was what she wanted, and she had been very grateful.
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 158. QUESTIONING
VINCENT I slammed my car door shut before I went over to the other side to open up for Katerina. "Thank you," she muttered, looking as eager to see Whitney as I was. She looked even more eager, but then again that was probably because the woman literally wore her emotions like a sleeve. We walked briskly inside the prison walls without really saying anything else to each other; we had talked enough on our way here. It was only when we were getting to her cell, that Katerina turned to face me, telling me, "I am going to let you talk to her. You are the one who is mostly affected by this, I would let you question her and whatnot without any interruptions but I also want to say stuff to her too, just so you know." She informed me, and I nodded, not wanting to say anything in response at first, except that nod, but after a quick glance at her face, I could see the desperation in her eyes for me to be okay and just like that, I just couldn’t keep to myself any longer. I threw m
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 157. CHILDHOOD TRAUMA
KATERINA"Oh God, Ava!" I cried out as the little girl bolted away from the living room as we all had reacted too slowly because of course, no one had expected that from her.Vincent was the first to run after her, and also the first to recover from the shock. He was behind her in no time, and I was next, followed by the nanny.Luckily, the butler was quick enough to stop her. Ava was crying and kicking in his arms, demanding to be set free, but he was not having it."You aren't going out of here without adult supervision, woman!" He yelled, but she was not having it."Let me go! My mommy will hurt me, she says he's the bad guy, I cannot be around him, please…" She continued to cry. My heart broke in pieces for her. What kind of a mother was Whitney for crying out loud? "Your mother hurt you, and you still think your daddy is the bad man?" Vincent blurted out and I pinned him with a look, but he did not spare me a glance, his eyes were still transfixed in his daughter who refused to
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 156. MY CHILD
VINCENT Katerina pulled the door open for me, mumbling to the butler, "Never mind. I got this." And then she smile widely at me after opening the door, wrapping her arms around my body in a tight hug. Her smile was nervous as fuck, as if she had something to tell me, and I knew that she did. A child was in here, at the living room. I had peeked through the surveillance, because my girl sounded nervous as fuck and I had to know what was making her like that. It was either that or me storming out of the meeting I was in. There was a nanny with the little girl too. She was claiming that the child was mine, and Whitney was her mother. But how the fuck did that even happen? Katerina pulled away from me, her face twisting in an offended frown, "You don't want to hug me back?" She started to step aside, but then my hand gripped her waist and I pulled her to me with force so her body collided with mine. Katerina gasped, then burst into a fit of giggles as I planted kisses al
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 155. AVA ‘JACKSON’
KATERINA There was some commotion outside the front door. I had just heard it as I got out of the bathroom, trying to prepare to go shopping at the mall for a few essentials since I did not have work today. I ended up just throwing on Vincent’s T-shirt and a pair of shorts before heading downstairs to see what the noise was about. The noises grew louder as I approached the door and I pulled it open at once on reaching it. When my eyes met with a little girl's with her dark curls falling softly around her face, clutching a worn stuffed bunny, I almost thought she’d stopped at the wrong house. But then I noticed her eyes—a striking, familiar gray. The same piercing color that belonged to Vincent, with a touch of softness that reminded me of Whitney. Next to her stood a woman, exhausted, holding the little girl’s hand firmly, as if afraid she might lose her any moment. Our butler was asking questions, his gaze shifting between the woman and the little girl with polite suspicion.
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 154. WHAT KEVIN WANTS
VINCENT"I feel like I cannot leave this bed even if I tried to." Katerina groaned and I smirked, turning back to face her."Same. I think you would not be able to walk throughout today. After what that pussy had to go through last night." I muttered, and she was quick to chuck a pillow in my direction, and I chuckled, letting it hit me as I turned my face to the side."You're such an animal in bed…" She whined, trying to sit up, her cheeks pink with a blush. I stopped to stare, my cock hardening again as I watched her. So fucking gorgeous, I always wondered how I was lucky enough to bag her again…Those brown eyes peered up at me through her thick lashes, and I could jog help walking over to her to plant a kiss on her lips. She let me, placing a hand on my naked chest while the other hand held the duvet tightly over her tits.I laughed, pulling away from her lips as I looked down, "Why are you hiding my girls from me?""Because you get hard faster than I snap my fingers and this tim
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 153. DOUBLE CELEBRATIONS
KATERINAA MONTH LATERThe energy in the room was electric. Owen’s business launch had pulled in a crowd and the air buzzed with excitement and the hum of conversation filled the grand hall. New York City sprawled in glittering lights beyond the tall windows, adding to the glamour of the night. All these did not still sit well with me. The mafia men starting up businesses just to cover up their tracks which consisted of money laundering, drug trafficking, murder and so much more. However, Vincent had recently explained his reason for joining the mafia after swearing off it all his life. There was really no way out, so I had to learn to deal with all these… at least, for him, and the sacrifice he made to keep me safe.Standing near the bar, I sipped my champagne, scanning the crowd until my gaze landed on Owen’s girlfriend, Mae.At first, I did not fully recognize her because I had only seen her in pictures, but then I looked more closer, I realized it was truly her. She was all curls

KATERINAShe missed.Whitney missed the shot by one tiny inch and just as she aimed to shoot the second time, a stick slammed into her head from the back.The gun dropped from her hand and fell with a clatter to the ground. I saw the moment that the blood started to drip down from the side of her head and her eyes drooped almost shut. Whitney fell to the ground in a heap and I looked in front of me to see Vincent finally making it to where I was crouched in a sitting position. I placed my both hands either sides of his face, crying hard. Everything that was happening just did not make sense to me. It was true that I wanted to hurt him in the beginning, but now I just could not stand seeing him like this. My heart broke in pieces just looking at him while he seemed so helpless, so pale, like he could just pass out anytime soon.The room still spun with smoke, thick and suffocating, the scent of burnt wood and fabric searing my lungs. My mind barely registered what had just happened—on
Ruining My Billionaire Ex-Husband 151. TRYING TO ESCAPE
KATERINASmoke filled the room, thick and suffocating, the heat growing unbearable. My throat burned with every breath, and my chest felt like it was about to collapse from the pressure. I could hear Vincent struggling, his body tense beside me as he worked to cut through the ropes around his wrists. The flames crept closer, inching toward us, consuming everything in their path."I'll get it. I'll get it, firecracker. We will get out of here." He swore while he kept struggling to loosen himself.I felt the tears sliding down my cheeks, but it wasn’t the smoke that made me choke this time. I thought about how close we’d been to ending all of this madness, to finally being free. But now, trapped and helpless, every second felt like an eternity ticking down to an end I wasn’t ready to face. Panic clawed at me, making my heart race wildly as I pulled against the ropes that bound my wrists, desperation filling every fiber of my being.Finally, with one last, fierce yank, Vincent broke free
