“ And for the MEgan3 contract, it was offered to me based on the merits of my proposal, not because of anything."Ashley laughed nastily. "Oh, come on, Ariel. Even if what you say about Mr. Wayne is true, we all know why you really got that contract. It's amazing how doors open when you're marrying into the Bane family, isn't it?"“Believe me or not but I earned that contract through my own efforts. Who I'm marrying had nothing to do with it."“Of course, of course," Ashley said, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "I'm sure it was just a coincidence that the contract originally slated for me suddenly went to the fiancée of Kingsley Bane. How... fortunate for you.""I'm sorry you feel that way," I said, trying to sound understanding. "But everything was done fairly. Maybe if you focused on improving your own work instead of tearing others down, you'd be more successful."Ashley's eyes narrowed, and I saw real anger beneath her polished look. "How dare you-""Is there a problem here, lad

~~~LANCE'S POV~~~“Lance, are you crazy?” Henry’s voice blasted through the phone, so loud that it felt like my ears would burst out. “Borrowing money from Billy, that shark? Do you even have any fucking idea what you’ve gotten yourself into?”I sighed heavily, running a hand through my hair, trying to stay calm. “Henry, relax. I know what I’m doing. I’ll pay him back, no problem.”“No problem?” Henry scoffed, disbelief dripping from his words. “Lance, this is Billy we’re talking about. He’s not just any guy—he goes crazy with anything call money. What if you miss a payment? He’ll take everything you’ve worked so hard for! How could you make such a decision without even consulting me when I’m your lawyer?”I could feel him burning with fury and seething in anger from whereever he was. I glanced back at the crowd behind me, my stomach twisting into tight knots as I tried not to raise up my voice at where I was.I knew Henry was right, but what other choices did I have at that time? “I

~~~MAYA'S POV~~~Why was he looking at me like that? Did he perhaps know that I intentionally fell?My heart raced as I wondered if he knew I fell on purpose or not, but I quickly dismissed the thought because if he did, he'd be yelling his head off - that's the Lance I used to know. Yet here he was, staring at me with those eyes, like he was hurting as if he'd almost lost something precious.That's not like the Lance I knew.Lance leaned against the doorframe, his shoulders sagging as he let out a deep sigh. "Why'd you do it?" He asked.I played dumb, tilting my head, "Do what?""Don’t play dumb with me, Maya. I saw your eyes before you fell. You knew….you knew I would catch you. You planned the whole thing." He ran his fingers through his hair, frustration evident in his tone as he continued, "So why? Why did you make me choose again?”So he knew?We locked eyes for a fleeting moment as he waited for my to response to him but I couldn't keep up with it anymore so I averted my gaze f

~~~ASHLEY'S POV~~~I threw everything I could reach against the wall, venting my anger. I let out a loud piercing scream as images of Lance saving that bitch and abandoning me kept flashing through my mind. I kept asking myself over and over again how it had all come to this and why the man who seemed not to have gotten over his ex-wife and even resisted my charm in all the years we'd been married suddenly got smitten by that bitch.Yes, I agreed that she was beautiful. I agree that she had a bigger and curvy features that could make any man go insane than me, but I had no idea that my own husband who claimed that he wasn't over his first wife, would also join the band of men smitten by her and end up humiliating me in public.I knew that he secretly admire her to even be moaning out her name when we were having sex two days ago. We fought over it but I thought it was just men's daily dream of fantasizing over things they desire and he would get over it but what happened today was a

I didn't even remember how I walked out of the building or left the party; I was just there, walking down the cold streets with my arms wrapped tightly around myself as if they could protect me from the storm raging inside. The night air chilled my skin, but it was nothing compared to the coldness sinking deep into my heart and as the images flashed back again and again in my mind, my knees gave way in the middle of the street. I crumbled to the ground, sobbing uncontrollably.I could see people's eyes on me but I didn't really care, they were free to do whatever they wanted to do or even share my crying videos on social media; I didn't care because they had no Idea of what I was goi through.Now thinking about it, I realized I was wrong to think something was wrong with me that made Lance unable to get over his ex-wife. Now I understood that none of this or about Maya was my fault. All I did was fight for my love with the power I had and Maya was just too weak to defend her love, w
THE RETURN OF THE DIVORCED BILLIONAIRE HEIRESS CHAPTER THIRTY NINE
~~~KINGLSEY'S POV~~~I stepped out of the private jet with my secretary and my dad, the cool night air hitting my face. My Rolex glinted under the airport lights as I checked the time and I would say in the next few hours, I would be having my engagement party with Maya which was one of the reasons why we returned quickly after closing the deal.We'd just closed a $2.3 billion deal in Hong Kong, acquiring three of Zhao's subsidiaries. It was quite a difficult one and Ihad to go to some pretty extreme lengths to make them give in.Well…in this kind of the world, being soft or patient doesn't get you what you want. Sometimes, you need to take drastic steps to get it. Which was why I sometimes have to take some necessary steps as I hate dragging thing out.Dad had no clue about it, of course. To him, this was a easy deal but he had no idea of what I and Mr Zhao had done on private to made him give in to all our conditions.I would say I picked up this trick from Maya's father as he also

Ashley continued noticing that I wasn't impressed. "I know there's a lot to gain from this marriage, but you deserve better…..better than someone who's sneaking around with another person's husband when it's just a few days until her marriage to you. I think that disrespectful a slap to your face. What happens when it taints your image and your reputation?" She asked in a concerned tone that didn't quite reach her eyes.And I would say all her attempts at sympathy were almost laughable, as she thought she could badmouth Maya and get me to call off the engagement, but this was far more than that , not some petty relationship drama.I crossed my arms, watching her carefully. “You seem very concerned about my reputation more than myself. What's your angle here, Ashley? I think I should know that before we discuss something else." She didn't falter, "I might have a better offer for you. Much more suitable than what she and her family are offering to you. We all know that people like us
THE RETURN OF THE DIVORCED BILLIONAIRE HEIRESS CHAPTER FORTY ONE
~~~MAYA’S POV~~~“How exactly are you feeling about this engagement?" I looked up, a smile spreading across my face. "It's... indescribable," I began. "Kingsley and I, we've grown up together. We've seen each other at our best and our worst and now, to stand here, knowing we've chosen each other for life… It's beyond amazing. I'm just... I'm so happy I can barely put it into words."Another reporter leaned in, "What do you love most about Mr Kingsley Bane?"My eyes softened as I thought of him. "Oh, where do I even start?" I laughed out. "His smile, for one. It lights up his whole face and when he smiles at me, it's like the whole world disappears. Moreover, his eyes... when he looks at me, it's like he sees straight into my soul. They're this deep, rich blue eyes like ocean that I could get lost in for hours."I paused, a mischievous glint in my eye. "And then there's his long hair that cascade over his shoulder. Well...what's left of it now." I felt sad, “He used to have this gorge
