The Billionaire Ex-Wife’s Return 124
124Alora's POV You know those moments when you know what you're about to do is a bad idea and could potentially come back to bite you, but you still go ahead to do it anyway? That was the situation I was in right now . Was I going to regret it? Maybe. Did that reduce my zeal in any way? Not a chance. I found a parking lot as quickly as I could, before getting down from the said vehicle. For a moment there, I'd almost forgotten to lock my doors. On the one hand, I wasn't sure anything bad was going to happen. What if I didn't lock my doors, what were they going to do? Hot-wire my car? Probably. I let out a small sigh. I was fidgeting and rambling on about all the thoughts in my head, and if that wasn't a tell take sign that I was nervous, then I had no idea what would suffice. My heart slammed in my chest, and I really thought it would break through at any moment from now. If that was going to happen though, I really would have preferred if it happened when I had gotten to m

125Fredrick’s POV A groan slid past my lips as I finally stirred awake. My limbs hurt, and I could already feel a burning coming up at both sides, and I wanted nothing more than to curse mother nature. My head was on fire, and if I didn't know myself better, I would have said a group of monkeys had snuck into my brain, and started a band in there. It was banging so hard my ears were ringing. In fact, when I'd first opened my eyes, my vision was hazy, and I was left with just one minute to figure out if I was blind or not. Even after sleeping for hours, it did nothing to make me feel better and I hated it. But did you really sleep though? A voice whispered in my mind. I wouldn't say he was wrong. I hadn't been able to sleep a wink since the doctor did whatever he did to bring me around again. I didn't mean to sound ungrateful, but a small part of me really wished he didn't do all that he had done. He could have delayed a little longer, or given me an extremely high dosage. A

126Alora's POV Growing up, I'd heard what they referred to as the walk of shame, but I couldn't exactly say I had experienced it before. The ones who said they had in fact experienced it, I told myself they were simply exaggerating and there was no way it could be as bad as they made it out to be. I was wrong. Freakishly wrong. I gulped, but it did nothing to push down the shame and guilt I'd been harboring since I left Deutchmond enterprises. It was a lot if I was being honest, and I really didn't see it going away any time soon. It was here to stay, unless I did something about and Eliaz and his wife would stop rubbing it in my faces. Right now, none of them seemed the least bit possible. A small sigh slid past my lips as I ran a hand through my hair. The drive home was eerily quiet, save for the occasional car honks once in every ten minutes. The roads were deserted, and I couldn't help but laugh at the large contrast of held, opposed to the state of my mind right now.

127Alora's POV Fredrick going in and coming out again wasn't the plot twist I saw coming, at all. When he'd turned his back to me, I really thought it was over, and I'd decided that if he didn't come back, I would let him be, before finding a way to salvage the situation. I had no idea how I would have done it, but best believe I was more than grateful that he'd decided to come around. We sat in silence for what seemed like the longest time. If I was in any way correct, it had been approximately thirty minutes since he sat down, since he last spoke. Now, thirty minutes later, he still hadn't said a thing. I was anxious. It was eating me up and it made me wonder how he would be feeling inside. I wasn't the one about to explain something that was probably traumatic, and here I was panicking like I'd shot someone. I sucked in a deep breath, before letting it out again. From the corner of my eyes, I watched Fredrick sitting to the side, and my heart broke into a million pieces.

128Fredrick’s POV Talk it out, they said. It'll make you feel light and a hundred times better, they also said, but I never believed. I really just thought it was another load of bullshit people had come up with. Until I got to experience it myself, that is. When Alora strolled back into the house last night, best believe that had to be the biggest shock of my life. Honestly, I thought I was going to have a heart attack just by staring at her. Yes, she'd been gone for a while, but I didn't expect her to be back so early. Perhaps if Henry hadn't shown up, I would have gone back to bed the moment I realized she was nowhere to be found. But no, he just had to rear his ugly head and ruin things for me. Literally. If I hadn't said it before, or if it wasn't so obvious, I hated him. With every fiber of my being too. I always knew Alora was an angel, but last night, she'd proven it to me. Heaven knows I half expected her to lash out at me yesterday. She had every right to though,

129Fredrick's POV I needed a drink, and it wasn't even noon yet. My head was a mess, and it didn't help that my phone had been blaring up since I peeled my eyes open this morning. I honestly thought it was good news. All thanks to the stunt Cynthia and I had pulled the other day, it was only normal that we anticipated a little bit of good newsNo, scratch that, a whole lot of good news. They'd started rolling in around six am, with a lot of potential investors rooting for us s d trying to get on our side once the contract was handed over to us. It was a certainty at this point because only Alora and I were the strongest contesters, but now that she was out of the picture, it automatically meant I was getting it. All I needed to do was be patient, while the council decided. Like that wasn't going to help me in any way. It paid to have one of the council members on your side, and to make his decision making a bit easier, I'd launched a new team to go online and create awarenes

130Alora's POV When I'd explained our proposed plan to Fredrick, even I had no idea what I was doing. It was just something I had come up with, and luckily for me, he went ahead with it. Whether or not it was going to work out, we were just going to have to find out whenever he got back today. As for me, since I couldn't exactly do anything else, I decided to do some snooping. What I would be snooping for or even where the hell I was going to start, I had no idea. All I knew was that I needed to find something as leverage over Eliaz and my stepsister, or else, I was going to have to kiss that contract goodbye. While it sounded relatively simple, there was still one question that hung loosely in the air. Where the hell was I going to start from? There was no way I could go back to the council, I doubt they would even give me another chance. I'd messed up all of the chances I'd been given in just a couple of days, and I wasn't sure they had any left. I also didn't want to go

131Alora's POV I didn't leave that spot till I was sure Eliaz and his little side piece, had completely checked out of their room . Everything the guard had said was true and I didn't just confirm from him alone. In order not to look suspicious,I roamed the hotel group ds for a bit, making sure to not bump into Eliaz or his woman.The main reason I'd done that, was to gather more information and evidence. It was amazing how much information you could get just by tipping people. yes, my pocket had run slightly dry today, but I like to think it was worth it. I wanted for a full fledged ten minutes before driving out of the hotel. It was way past office hours, and if the many texts and calls that had been ringing up my phone meant anything, it was the fact that Fredrick was worriedDon't worry, Fredrick. I muttered to myself. I'm coming. Well sort this out. I promise. Thankfully, I got home in record time, but I did meet Fredrick standing at the entrance of our house. “Alora.”

135Alora's POV Personally, I hated airports, and it made no sense because I wasn't sure my hatred was being spun by something specific. Yes, I loved the fact that it gave an avenue of some kind of escape, you could literally hop on a plane and find yourself on the other side of the world, and while it was beautiful to think about, I also couldn't ignore how noisy it was. All around me, people chattered as they moved about, pulling millions and millions of baggage with them. A lot of people were with their families, and I didn't miss how the younger children wailed, or couldn't help from wandering around the darn place. Like that wasn't enough, the annoying voice on the Public announcement system just wouldn't shut up. Where was she when I missed my flight? Thanks to her, I was going to have to reschedule my meeting, something that took me an entire month to book. Thanks to the hullabaloo with Elias and his wife, Fredrick and I had decided to move our focus onto something el

134Cynthia's POV I took a sip of the orange juice in my grip, before setting it down on the little stool by my side. Once that was done, I picked up the book I'd discarded earlier. It was a mystery thriller book that revolved round the murder of a wealthy business man and the many people involved in his death. I wasn't even done with it yet, but I could already tell who the antagonist was; his wife. While I was an avid reader of romance, I'd decided to switch it up today, why? I was simply feeling like it, and I couldn't shake off the feeling that maybe somehow, I was going to find myself in her shoes. If I didn't want to get caught, I was just going to have to be careful, and what other way to be careful than to gather hands on knowledge? A low smile grazed my lips, but it was far from warm. My eyes fluttered shut and apparently, that was the sign my mind needed to replay yesterday's events. I should have known something was wrong the moment I stepped into the conference

133Alora's POV I could feel the eyes of everyone in the office on me, and for the first time in forever, I actually liked it. Their eyes bored in my skin, and I could see so many emotions dancing in their eyes. What their mouths couldn't say, I made a quick guess of the many questions they had in their minds. What was she doing here? Wasn't she supposed to be back home with her bad husband? Was he really mad? Did she know about his condition as well, or was she shocked like everyone else? I could go on and on, but I decided not to. You didn't need to be a mind reader to be able to get a glimpse of people's mind. From their body reactions, you could already tell how they were feeling For example, Laura. She was sitting faraway from me, but with the way her fingers clasped around the papers on the desk, you could tell she was furious. A lot of the others whispered in hushed tones, while pointing fingers at me, but if there was one person who was strangely smug, it happened to

132Fredrick's POV I didn't want to believe it. Hell, I almost didn't believe it, but unfortunately for me I had a shit ton of photos in front of me for not to. Shit. Shit. Shit. When I'd headed out this evening, this was not how I'd expected my night to end. I'd gone to my usual hotel with Valerie, or whatever her name was, and I would be lying if i said it wasn't the best time of my life. Over the years, the key to having the best night with her had always been to switch it up once in a while. Whenever we were in the room, she was Alora, but with a little perks. On some days, she would dress up as a maid, or a stripper, anything I wanted. I would have her beg for my cock over and over again, while saying demeaning things to her. In that room she was my slut and mine alone and I got to fulfill all of the many fantasies I wanted with her. She never for once complained though. I tipped her a lot and she couldn't deny the thrill of sneaking around with the Eliaz Deutchmond. I
