Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Celine, I...
Calvin's birthday party was still in full swing. However, in the midst of the hubbub, Nicolas felt a heavy weight pressing on his chest. He couldn't take his eyes off Celine, the woman who had once been a part of his life. When the atmosphere was a little quiet, Nicolas decided to approach Celine."Celine," Nicolas called hesitantly. Celine, who was talking to one of the guests, turned to Nicolas who was standing next to her, "Nico? What's wrong?""I just want to talk for a minute," Nicolas replied, his face looking serious. "Just tell me," Celine agreed."About Devano... is he really your husband now?"Celine smiled slightly, then sighed. "Not yet, but he and I are getting married soon," Celine replied casually, "Why is that?" Celine asked sarcastically. Nicolas felt his heart stabbed again at that answer. "Celine, I want... I want to explain something to you. I know it probably won't change anything, but I have to say it.""What are you going to explain, Nico?" asked Celine but r
Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 20: Too late, Nico
A few days later, a sunny morning in the city park was filled with children's voices and joyful laughter. Among the people who passed by, Nicolas' eyes were glued to the figures of Celine and Calvin who were playing in the meadow. Celine looked so beautiful in a simple dress, her face radiant, as if all the wounds of the past had disappeared. However, behind that warm smile, Nicolas knew that he himself had planted the deepest wound in the woman's heart."What have I done..." Nicolas whispered, his gaze fixed on Celine who was unaware of his presence. In his chest, there was a strong desire to go over, to apologize, to explain everything. However, he knew that no amount of explanation would erase the wounds he had left behind.While Nicolas was still trapped in his guilt, Calvin suddenly turned to him. Calvin's small eyes widened, a big smile graced his face, and without hesitation, the boy ran over to him."Uncle Nico!" he exclaimed cheerfully.Nicolas gasped, trying not to show too
Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 21: Never mind, Nico!
Nicolas sat alone in his study, drowning in the shadows of a past that never allowed him to be truly free. The room was dim, with only the desk lamp shining on his regretful and exhausted face. Every second was heavy, as if the shadows of the past were gripping her tighter and tighter.The door to his room opened softly, and Maria, his mother, entered with her usual cold and controlling gaze. She stepped closer to Nicolas' desk, her gaze sharp, radiating the disapproval that had been weighing on Nicolas."You're thinking about Celine again, aren't you?" Maria said in a sharp, judgmental tone. "Stop thinking about that woman. She only brings trouble into your life. Now that she's a CEO, you want to beg her?"Nicolas sighed, bowing his head. "Enough, ma'am, all this, all this mess happened because of my old enemy, not Celine. She's never wrong."Maria squinted, her gaze full of annoyance. "Your enemy or not, Celine is still your source of weakness. I will never allow her back in your li
Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 22: Ruby's Attempt to Seduce Nicolas
Nicolas walked into the house at exactly seven in the evening. His shirt was rumpled, his face was tired, and his mind was still reeling from all the problems at the office. As he closed the door, the sound of soft steps approached, accompanied by the scent of a perfume that was too sweet for his taste."Nico," Ruby greeted softly, standing nearby with a seductive smile. Her body was clad in a deliberately sheer dress, revealing her curves in all their glory. "You just got home? It's been a long time. I've been waiting for you, you know."Nicolas just sighed softly, looking away. "I'm tired, Ruby. Don't start, please."Ruby leaned further in, placing her hand on Nico's chest, her fingers stroking gently. "Tired? Always tired," Ruby said in an annoyed tone disguised with a smile. "Don't you want to have a little fun with me?"Nicolas shifted his body, avoiding Ruby's touch without a care in the world. "I don't need that right now. I just want to rest."Ruby snorted softly, annoyance st
Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 23: Proposing to Celine
Elsewhere, Celine sat looking at the window overlooking the garden. It was quiet, with only the wind whispering outside. Footsteps were heard approaching, then Devano's figure appeared, carrying a bouquet of white roses and a small blue velvet-lined box in his hand."Miss Celine," Devano called softly, walking over to her.Celine turned her head, smiling slightly at the sight of the bouquet of white roses in his hand. "You always knew my favorite flowers, Dev."Devano looked at her, taking a deep breath before kneeling before her. "And I also know the woman who always occupies my thoughts," he said as he opened the velvet box, revealing a diamond ring that glittered under the lights.Celine was startled, her eyes widening for a moment. "Devano what are you doing?""Miss Celine, I've been wanting to say this for a long time. I love you," Devano said firmly, his voice soft yet full of sincerity. "And I want you to be my life companion."Celine sighed softly, feeling the warmth and at th
Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 24: Celine's Plan
Celine sat in her study, behind a neatly organized desk with files and an open laptop. Devano stood in front of her, looking at her seriously. There was something in Celine's gaze that he had never seen before-a strong, determined will."So, you really want to do it?" asked Devano, leaning forward slightly, trying to get a deeper understanding of her intentions.Celine nodded firmly. "I'm not messing around, Dev. Wiliam's company must fall into my hands. No matter what." Devano was silent for a moment, hesitating. "Celine... this means we have to play with a pretty risky strategy. Wiliam's company is one of the strongest in the market. And... well, you know who's behind that company."Celine smiled a small, cynical smile. "Who else if not Nicolas? And maybe this is the best way to get back at him for everything he's ever done to me.""Is it really about revenge?" asked Devano, trying to gauge what was really in Celine's heart.Celine sighed, her gaze directed towards the window. "It'
Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 25: Calvin Insists on Seeing Nicolas
Celine had just walked into the house after a full day outside. As soon as the door opened, Calvin ran up to her, his face flushed with excitement. However, Celine's facial expression immediately changed, feeling like she didn't want to discuss the thing that had just popped into her mind."Mommy, Mommy, when can I see Uncle Nico again?" asked Calvin with sparkling eyes, jumping up and down a little with excitement. Celine stopped her steps for a moment, looking at her son with a serious face. "Calvin, Uncle Nico is very busy. You know that right? He works a lot, so we have to be patient."Calvin didn't seem satisfied with that answer. He came closer again, holding Celine's hand tightly. "But I miss Uncle Nico, Mommy. Uncle Nico is good. Why won't Mommy let me see Uncle Nico again?"Celine took a deep breath, trying to hold back the anger that was starting to emerge. "We've met Uncle Nico many times, Calvin. But right now, he's really busy.""I just want to play with Uncle Nico," Cal
Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 26: Restraining Desire
Nicolas began to feel something strange inside him. His body was heating up, and his heart was beating faster than usual. He felt restless, as if there was an urge he couldn't control. Realizing something was wrong, Nicolas tried to control himself. However, Ruby's presence nearby only made the situation worse. The woman, without hesitation, kept getting closer."Nico... you look so hot," Ruby said in a spoiled voice, wrapping her arms around his neck. She touched Nicolas' shoulder, caressed it gently and slowly lowered her hand to his back. "Maybe you need someone to make you feel better?"Nicolas took a deep breath, trying to hold himself together, but the effects of the drug were starting to take over his mind. "Ruby, I... I think you should go now," he replied in a heavy voice, trying not to show the effects of the drugs he had taken without meaning to.Ruby, however, did not give up so easily. She smiled meaningfully, then whispered near Nicolas' ear, "Don't kick me out, Nico. I

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!"
Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 52: Keep going
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
Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 46: Please, Nico!
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
