THE RETURN OF THE DIVORCED BILLIONAIRE HEIRESS CHAPTER TWELVE
I woke up with a pounding headache as I held my head with my two hand, groaning. I felt my my head was splitting into two and I could feel my eyes were still puffy from crying too much last night. Lying on the bed while staring at the ceiling, I tried to clear my head maybe it would reduce the pain. Mia entered the room with a tray in her hand, a smile was on her face as she walked closer to me. "Good morning. How are you feeling now?" I gently rose from the bed, stretching my body lazily. Rubbing my temples as I sit up, wrapping the duvet around me. "Well, I think I'm fine now." Mia walked over and handed me a glass of lukewarm water and I gulped it down immediately. It's just as if she was already aware of my pain. Returning the cup to her, I wrapped the duvet around me again, yawning loudly. "I really wanted to thank you for standing up for me and Bella yesterday. It meant a lot to us." I sighed as I remembered what happened yesterday again, but I wondered why she would tha

The car finally pulled up in the front of the company building. I took a deep breath, straightened my dress, and squared my shoulders. I felt the wind catching my hair as I walked toward the entrance while the camera flashes all around me. I could already guessed today's headline; “ Ariel Roderigo first meeting with the Board of Directors” My entire dressing would definitely be sold out. I could assure that but today's meeting outcome, I don't think I know that. I took a deep breath as I stepped into the boardroom. The room was grand, with a long, polished mahogany table dominating the center. Portraits of past CEOs lined the walls, a silent reminders of the legacy I was now a part of. But my eyes stopped at the last portrait, which was of my father's and my grip tightened when I saw that my picture was nowhere to be seen, but I quickly masked my anger with a smile. As I walked toward my seat at the head of the table, the directors glanced my way with their cold and disapproving

After a long day at work, I set off to return home but just as I stepped outside, the rain began to fall heavily. Bryan quickly opened an umbrella, escorting me to the car. I sank into the seat, feeling exhausted after a grueling first day as CEO. I was totally exhausted as I did alot of work today; board meetings, reports, meeting some staff and smiling all throughout and also the strain of reading and signing so many documents. This is definitely not going to be easy like I thought. As the car approached my house, I saw two of them shivering in the pouring rain. They looked pitiful, drenched to the skin and their clothes clinged onto their bodies. They are really desperate, aren't they? Well, we are talking about her golden son and their family breadwinner, so of course they must endure everything but it would have been a nice view if their daughter-in-law had also joined them. We drove past them, splashing through the water to their body, and I felt a pang of something; guilt?

But Laura’s expression stayed calm and steady as she looked at me. It was quite clear that she wasn’t as clueless as her daughter, who actually believed what I said.Laura knew I was lying about not being Maya. I was sure she had learned the truth from Lance as there”s no way anyone could recognize me so easily; I had changed a lot.Even when Lance recognized me at the party, I was shocked as I didn't expect him to recognize me so easily.Laura dropped her head for a moment and let out a heavy sigh, cutting off Morgan, who seemed frustrated that her mother didn’t react to her words.“Thank you for granting us this audience,” Laura began, her voice steady but strained. “I… really appreciate it. As you must have already know why we’re here, I’ll get straight to the point.” She lifted her eyes to mine. “Please, let Lance go. I’m begging you.”I could hear the desperation in her voice as she said those words to me. I was sure that she had for once dreamed that there would come a day she w

Slowly walking into my room, I shut the door behind me, the sound echoing in the silence. My feet felt heavy as I dragged myself closer to the mirror and I sank into the chair, right in front of the mirror, staring at my reflection. Tears streamed down my face, blurring my vision as I remembered everything those two had told me.How could this be? No, they must definitely be lying! Everything they said can’t be true!The door creaked open, and I turned on my seat, backing the mirror, to see who was there. It was Mia. She slowly entered.Seeing her make me broke down completely, I sob uncontrollably.Mia rushed closer to me, lowering herself to my level, and pulled me into a tight embrace. I cried on her shoulder, the pain I was feeling was as fresh as the first time I wept over Lance. I thought I was done crying over him, but here I was, drowning in tears again.“I heard everything,” Mia whispered, holding me close as I continued to cry. “I told you something was wrong when the man w

~~ASHLEY~~I adjusted the collar of my blouse, trying to keep my composure as I sat across from Nora Bane who was on the phone, talking with someone. With the bright smile on her face, I could guess she's a close friend of hers. “ Oh you mean that? Of course it is.” As they were talking, Nora suddenly glanced at me, clicking her tongue and then smiled, to which I quickly returned.I was actually called this morning to take on the modeling job for their new project called mEgan3 which they wanted to launch soon. They had moved up the date due to the reason which I didn't know about. On getting the call from her secretary, I didn't even think of having breakfast before rushing here.I waited for her to finish the call so that she could hand over the contract she was holding to me.We had both signed it, and she was just about to give it to me when her phone rang. Getting this contract was a huge opportunity— the best I’d ever had in my years in this industry. It was a modeling gig fo

The elevator doors slid open, bringing me out of my thoughts and I walked out with my head hanging low. Turning to the left side, I suddenly collided headfirst into a broad, solid chest, and I lost my balance, already falling to the ground.I shut my eyes close as my mind raced with the embarrassing image of me sprawling on the floor. But then, a strong arm quickly caught me, pulling me back from the brink of shame.I breathe out in relief, knowing that I had been saved. I slowly opened my eyes to see my savior, only to see deep blue eyes staring back at me. I found myself momentarily lost in his eyes and my breath caught in my throat as I took in his face.Of course, I knew who he was. He's Kingsley Bane and this was the first time I would ever see him this close. My heart, which had never beat faster than for Lance, suddenly began to thump so loudly that I could even hear its sound.I smiled at him, “Tha…” before I could complete my sentences, he let go of me.I stumbled backward an

“And have you saved my company yet? Have I even received a single penny from you?” he challenged, his tone sharp, making my heart sink.I stepped back, lowering my gaze as his words sting a lot. But I got him his investors back! Although I was the one behind them pulling out in the first place, but I still got them back.When I looked up again, I saw him staring at me, not with love, but with something far colder—like anger, or maybe even disgust.Wait, did he know about that? Nah, there's definitely no way he would know.Rubbing his temples, Lance sighed heavily. “You know what? Let’s not talk about this because I might really vent out my anger on you now.”He continued unbuttoning his shirt, while I stood at the same spot, looking at him as I was stunned by the way he had raised his voice at me. In the five years we’d been married, Lance had never for once spoken to me like this.I wondered what exactly changed. Did Ariel Roland really do look like his ex-wife? Because I had nev
