Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 53 : not the end all
That morning at the hospitalNico stood at the door of the hospital room with a face full of doubt. His suitcase was already in the car, the plane ticket was in his hand. It was only a matter of time before he left to leave everything behind, including Celine and Calvin. But there was something he had to do first. He knocked lightly on the door, then opened it. Inside, Calvin was drawing at a small table, while Celine sat leaning back on the bed, her face looking more refreshed although her gaze was still cold. "Can I come in?" Nico asked softly, his voice almost a whisper. Celine didn't answer, just gave him a glance before looking away again. Calvin, on the other hand, immediately smiled widely. "Daddy!" he exclaimed happily as he jumped up from his chair and ran towards Nico. Nico lifted the boy into his arms, kissing his forehead gently. "Hi, Calvin. Did you eat breakfast?" "I did, Daddy," Calvin replied excitedly. "But why has Daddy been absent for so long? I miss you!"

"Celine, this is Ruby. She is my lover, my future wife."It was like being struck by lightning in broad daylight when Celine heard from the mouth of Nicolas - her husband - that the beautiful woman was his girlfriend. Celine was shocked beyond belief. In front of her stood Nicolas holding hands with a beautiful woman he had never met before. The woman smiled sweetly at her, as if she didn't feel the slightest bit guilty."Your lover? Your future wife?" repeated Celine in a trembling voice. "Yes, Celine. She is my future wife!" said Nicolas firmly. Celine shook her head in disbelief at the surprise given by her husband on the day of their fifth wedding anniversary. Since earlier, Celine had been busy in the kitchen preparing a special dinner with her husband. Celine had even prepared a small surprise for her husband. But everything got messy.Earlier, Nicolas had told her that he would be leaving early because he had something to say. And then...?! Nicolas comes home with another

Celine was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at her wedding photo album with Nicolas. She still couldn't believe that it was the fifth anniversary of their marriage, and last night her husband had brought another woman into the house."I will try to survive for the sake of the child that has grown in my womb," Celine whispered, her eyes looking sad. Since last night, she had never stopped crying.Then Celine heard the sound of footsteps. When she turned her head towards the door, she saw Ruby standing in the doorway. Ruby's smile looked mocking. "Celine, I want to talk," Ruby said sarcastically, the woman stepped closer to Celine. Celine closed her wedding photo album and stood up. Celine ventured to look at Ruby with her swollen eyes. "What's wrong, Ruby?" asked Celine trying to smile in front of the woman who became her husband's lover. Ruby scrunched up her waist, her smile looking sardonic. "I want you to move out of the main room. I will sleep in this room. This room is

"I will not go. And I will make my husband retract his words. In the end, Nico will definitely keep me as his wife. Because I -""Enough, Celine!" snapped Mrs. Maria cutting Celine off."Why, Mom?" asked Celine with a faint smile. "Are you afraid?" "Already... already!" said Nicolas, "We'll see, ma'am, if Celine will be able to prove what she said!" Nicolas challenged Celine. "We'll see," Celine said, pulling up a chair and getting up to go upstairs.Nicolas held one hand of Ruby who was sitting next to him. "You don't have to think about what he said, darling. I will still make you my wife," Nicolas said reassuringly. "Yes, Nico, I believe you," Ruby said. Madame Maria and Mr. Morgan could only hope that Celine would give up and walk away from their son's life. "Nico, you should just ask Celine to prepare your wedding party with Ruby," Mrs. Maria suggested, hoping that this way, Celine would give in. "Well, mom's right, dear. Celine should take care of our wedding. Then we can

At seven in the evening, Nico had just gotten home from work. Celine, who was waiting for him, immediately greeted him with a warm smile, even though she was not in a good mood. "You must be tired, honey," Celine said gently. Nicolas only replied with a brief nod, his face looking irritated. Celine tried to keep smiling, even though her heart was hurting even more. Not long after, Ruby appeared from the direction of the living room with a big smile. "Honey..." Nico immediately embraced and kissed Ruby passionately on the lips in front of Celine.Celine looked down, trying to hide the pain that was increasingly squeezing her heart. "Oh my God... make me strong," Celine whispered. After removing the kiss, Nico looked at Celine coldly. "Celine, I have a task for you."Celine raised her face, trying to remain calm. "What is it, Nico?""I want you to organize my wedding party with Ruby," Nico said dispassionately.Celine was dumbfounded. "Nico, that's impossible. I don't want to." Ce

As the party progressed, the atmosphere became more and more festive. The guests laughed and joked, enjoying the party.In the middle of the crowd, a handsome and businesslike-looking man, named Billy Andara, one of Nico's important clients, noticed Celine from a distance. His eyes narrowed, trying to recognize the woman who looked different among the waiters.Billy approached Celine who was carrying a tray of drinks. "Hey, aren't you CELINE EVALYNE VIONETTA? The Celine who was once a famous model?" he asked in a mocking tone.Celine was startled and looked down, trying to avoid Billy's gaze. "Sorry, sir. You may have the wrong person," she replied softly, trying to remain calm.Billy laughed loudly, drawing the attention of several guests around him. "No, I'm not mistaken. You are Celine Evalyne Vionetta, who was once very famous! What's going on? Why are you a waitress here now?" he continued in a sarcastic tone. "Haha... haven't heard of you in a while, apparently you've gone down

After the incident with Billy, the party was back on. Soft music played, and decorative lights glittered throughout the room. In the center of it all, Nico and Ruby stood on a small stage decorated with white flowers and candles. Guests gathered around them, waiting for the moment they had been waiting for: the pinning of the engagement rings.Celine stood in the corner of the room, watching from a distance with a heavy heart. Her eyes could not escape the couple who were celebrating love over the misery of the Basin."You're really bad, Nico! You're not the Nico I used to know," Celine whispered, her heart feeling like it had been pierced by thorns multiple times as she watched Nico and Ruby about to exchange rings. Nico held Ruby's hand gently, then took the ring from the small box given by a waiter. "I, Nicolas William Khiel, hereby pin this ring as a token of my love and loyalty to Ruby," Nico said in a firm yet gentle voice. He slipped the ring onto Ruby's ring finger, and inst

Celine woke up with puffy eyes from crying all night. She knew today would be difficult, but she tried to stay strong. After taking a shower and getting dressed, Celine decided to stay in the guest room that was now her bed. Nico and Ruby were still sleeping in the same room, in the master suite. Even though they were not officially married yet. Just then, the door to the room opened, and Nico entered with a serious face. He closed the door carefully, as if he didn't want anyone to hear their conversation. Celine stood up from her seat and looked at Nico, trying to calm her heart that was still beating fast."Nico, what's wrong?" asked Celine in a low voice.Nico looked at Celine coldly. "I came to tell you something. From now on, I don't want to see you appear in front of the guests or my coworkers who come to this mansion," he said matter-of-factly.Celine frowned, trying to digest Nico's words. "But why, Nico?""I don't want them to know that you're still here," Nico replied firm

The sunlight coming through the window curtains slowly woke Celine's consciousness. Her eyelids moved slowly before finally opening. Her vision blurred for a moment, but then caught the shadow of Nico sitting beside her bed. "Celine?" Nico called out softly, noticing the change on her face. "You're awake?" Celine blinked a few times, adjusting her gaze. The first look she gave Nico was neither grateful nor relieved, but cold and full of tension. "What are you doing here?" her voice was hoarse, almost a whisper. Nico was silent for a moment, trying to swallow the pain that came with the question. "I... I just wanted to make sure you were okay." Before Nico could continue, Calvin's small voice broke the silence. "Mommy! Mommy's awake!" Calvin ran over to the bed, hugging his mother's arm tightly. His face was beaming with happiness. "Mommy, I really miss you! Daddy and I wait for Mommy to wake up every day." Celine looked at Calvin and smiled slightly. However, the smile f
Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 51: Celine passes the critical period
Two days later, in the ICU roomNicolas sat on a plastic chair. His eyes were fixed on Celine's drooping hands by her bedside. Next to her, Calvin drew something in his little book, occasionally looking up at his mother with a hopeful face. "Daddy," Calvin broke the silence, pointing at the drawing he had just finished. "This is me, Mommy, and you. We're playing in the park." Nicolas smiled a little, though his heart was heavy. "Nice drawing, Calvin. Mommy will like it when she sees it." "But when will Mommy wake up?" Calvin asked, his voice hoarse as if he was holding back tears. Nicolas didn't answer right away. He grasped Calvin's small hand, trying to provide a sense of security. "We have to be patient, son. Mommy is struggling to wake up. You know, Mommy is a strong woman." Suddenly, the fingers of Celine's hand that Nicolas was holding moved. At first glance, he thought it was just his imagination, but the movement happened again, this time more clearly. "Calvin! Loo
Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 50: Gabriel escapes
Nicolas stood in front of a large board full of photos, notes, and maps. Next to him, Devano was busy talking to a detective. "Gabriel can't get away again," Nicolas said in a firm tone. "We have all the evidence we need. We just need to catch him." The detective nodded, indicating their plan. "We've deployed teams to the three locations we suspect. In the afternoon, Nicolas stood in front of the desk, his face tense. In his hand was the latest report on Gabriel's escape to the Philippines. Across from him, Devano looked equally agitated, pacing the room with his cell phone in hand. "So that's it? We let him escape?" Nicolas' voice was full of pressure. "We did our best," Devano replied, trying to calm him down, though he was also disappointed inside. "The police here are limited. Gabriel must have planned everything. He has connections, Nicolas." "But I can't accept this! Celine is still in a coma, Calvin cries every night for his mother, and that bastard is enjoying his
Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 49: Capturing Gabriel
Devano sat in front of his laptop in the corner of the waiting room. His face was serious, his fingers dancing over the keyboard. He had collected some evidence, but not enough to ensure Gabriel could be arrested. On the other side, Nicolas stood up while watching Calvin who was drawing in his little book. "Devano, do we have enough evidence?" asked Nicolas, his tone anxious yet hopeful. Devano sighed, staring at the laptop screen with a tired look. "Not yet. Gabriel is cunning. Even though I have recordings of his conversations with his henchmen, it's still not strong enough in court." Nicolas clenched his fists, frustrated. "So, what else do we need? That man almost killed Celine. He can't get away with it." "I'm trying to trace the flow of money he used to rent that car. If we can prove that the transaction came from his account, then we have a stronger case," Devano explained. Nicolas nodded, though his mind was not at ease. "Hurry up. I don't want him to have a chance t
Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 48 : Celine.....
The afternoon sky was dark when Celine came out of her office. Her heart was still heavy after canceling her wedding to Gabriel. She walked towards her car parked on the side of the road, unaware that a black car was slowly approaching from behind. Nicolas, who happened to be passing by, saw the figure. He felt there was something strange about the black car. Its speed increased slowly, and it was heading straight towards Celine. "Celine! Be careful!" shouted Nicolas, running with all his might. Celine turned her head with a confused look, but it was too late. The car was speeding away, just a few meters away from her body. In an instant, Nicolas pushed Celine to the side of the sidewalk, his own body bouncing onto the road. Celine screamed, her body falling to the edge of the sidewalk. Her head hit hard, and her vision began to blur. The black car sped off without stopping. At the hospitalThe hospital room was silent except for the sound of the monitor that kept beeping,
Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 47: Turns out....
In a Luxury RestaurantGabriel, the man who would become Celine's husband tomorrow, sat at a corner table with a young woman in a red dress. They were chuckling, talking in low voices, as if they were hiding something. Nicolas, who was delivering documents for an odd job in the same building, accidentally saw Gabriel from a distance. At first, Nicolas only intended to ignore, but when he saw Gabriel touching the woman's hand intimately, he felt something was wrong. Nicolas decided to come closer, hiding behind a large curtain. "Honey, are you sure she's not suspicious?" the woman asked, her voice soft but full of sarcasm. Gabriel chuckled. "Celine is too busy taking care of the kids and the family business. Besides, she trusts me. The important thing is that I marry her tomorrow, and everything will be fine after that." The woman squinted. "Smooth how do you mean?" Gabriel leaned in, speaking more softly. However, Nicolas could still hear clearly. "Once I have full access to

At Celine's MansionCalvin's cries echoed throughout the mansion. The boy rolled on the living room floor, beating the carpet with his hands while crying loudly. His face reddened, the tears continued to flow non-stop. "I want Daddy! Take me to Daddy!" cried Calvin, his voice hoarse from crying so much. Celine stood by the stairs, clutching her throbbing temples. Her eyes looked tired, her hair a little messy. She looked at her son with a mixture of anger, frustration, and... helplessness. "Calvin, Mommy told you. Daddy is not someone you can trust. He can't give you a good life!" Celine tried to calm herself down, though her tone remained firm. However, Calvin's crying grew louder. The boy looked at his mother with eyes full of anger and hurt. "Daddy loves me! Daddy never yells at me like Mommy!" The words were like a hard slap to Celine. Her breath caught. She tried to approach Calvin, kneeling before him carefully. "Honey... listen to Mommy. Daddy's not a bad person, but
Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 45: Feeling useless
At Celine's Mansion, moments after Devano left without CalvinCeline stood in the center of the large living room, her eyes burning with anger. Devano had just entered the house with a worried expression, and Celine immediately approached, her arms folded across her chest. "Why didn't you bring Calvin?" asked Celine, her voice flat yet full of pressure. Devano looked uncomfortable, he looked down for a moment before answering. "Sorry, Celine. Calvin refused to go home. I tried to persuade him, but... he didn't want to come." "Doesn't want to come? Do you think I'm going to let that happen? You should have been more assertive!" snapped Celine, her tone getting higher. "Don't make excuses, Devano. I told you, no matter what, Calvin has to come home today!" Devano humbled himself, distressed by Celine's anger. "I... will go back to Mr. Nicolas' apartment." However, Celine was no longer patient. Wordlessly, she picked up the phone and called someone. After a few seconds, her voi
