The Billionaire's Revenge Wife CHAPTER SEVENTEEN
LUCA'S POV.With a glass of whiskey in my hand and a mind full of vengeful thoughts, I got up from the couch and left my room to the balcony, wanting to look over the city to clear my head.The view from this spot was what made me love this mansion even more. It made me feel like I was in control, looking over everyone in the city. People loved to say I was a control freak and an asshole, but little did they know that hiding deep inside me was an insecure man. A man that craved the fear and attention that he got from being wealthy, because he felt like he had nothing else to offer than his looks.Yes, I finally said it. I was insecure as fuck and I played it very cool by putting up this hard exterior to the rest of the world, but could you really blame me? I'd had to experience for myself just how cruel the world was at the mere age of fifteen, and that had shaped me into the asshole I was. I would say I was way better before Ramson Damien came into my life and fucked my sister up. Y
The Billionaire's Revenge Wife CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
SCARLETT'S POV.I groaned as I opened my eyes, my body feeling heavy with exhaustion. Monday mornings were always a struggle for me, especially after a hectic weekend spent cramming in assignments and studying. Dragging myself out of bed, I rubbed at my eyes in an attempt to shake off the remnants of sleep.Law school awaited me as usual, and as much as I knew the importance of attending every class, sometimes life seemed to have other plans. Today was no exception, but I had to push through. I stumbled into the shower, letting the hot water wake me up and revive my tired mind. The routine of getting ready was a blur— brushing my teeth, applying minimal makeup because today for some reason I felt like looking pretty, and hastily dressing in a casual but still professional attire.With my backpack overloaded with textbooks and notes, I made out of the house and the big guy drove me to school. The morning commute was chaotic as always, with people rushing past me and cars honking relent
The Billionaire's Revenge Wife CHAPTER NINETEEN
LUCA'S POV.As I pulled into the parking lot of the company, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement. Today held the promise of new opportunities and achievements for the entire Nicholas empire and it made me feel a rush of emotions. Today, I was going to seal a deal with Mr Rajesh, a renowned investor that could catapult my company to an even greater height than it already was. And I was very confident and excited, but little did I know that the events about to unfold would put my nerves and cunning to the ultimate test.As the driver started to drive slowly towards our usual spot, my anticipation was abruptly interrupted as our car came to a sudden halt. And then a sleek, intimidating looking vehicle had crossed our path, blocking our way. I hesitated, unsure of what was happening at first, but then I realised who I was and decided to face whoever had stopped us head on. Stepping out of the car, my eyes widened in disbelief as I recognized the driver. Sleek golden blonde hai
The Billionaire's Revenge Wife CHAPTER TWENTY
SCARLETT'S POV.Abby and I navigated through the sea of students in the hallway, making our way to the our spot at the parking lot. I hadn't been able to talk to her for two days now because I'd truthfully been avoiding her, so we had a lot of catching up to do. When we both took a seat, she wasted no time in going straight to questioning me. "So, what has been happening? I couldn't catch you anywhere for two days. Were you avoiding me or something?""No way, I wasn't," the lie tasted bitter in my mouth but I ignored it. "I just was busy with catching up on all the stuff I missed and I couldn't find you guys too."Abby looked like she didn't buy that for anything but she didn't press on it. "So, with Luca. What's going on? Are you okay?"I gave an awkward laugh. "Why would you ask if I'm okay? Do I look horrible or something?" I brought out my phone and clicked on the camera, checking my appearance. This morning I hadn't really put in much into getting ready because I had a lot on
The Billionaire's Revenge Wife CHAPTER TWENTY ONE
SCARLETT'S POV.The day went by like a blur, with me getting only a wink of a nap before Grace came knocking on my door. When I got out of bed groggily, I looked out through the window and saw that the sky had gone really dark, making me know that it was time. Time to get ready for the damn party. I walked with a slump in my shoulders to the door and let a smiling Grace in. In her hands, she held a small jewelry box that had me wondering why she brought it."Good evening, dear," Grace greeted. "I can see you're still groggy, we need to fix that up."Of course I am! I'm about to attend a party filled with snobby rich people, and also going to let the whole world know that I'm married to Luca Nicholas. I refrained from saying that and instead decided to focus on just getting ready. There was no going back, so I might as well just put in effort to make sure I don't look like a dweeb infront of all those wealthy people. With some help from Grace, I finally got into the dress and once
The Billionaire's Revenge Wife CHAPTER TWENTY TWO
SCARLETT'S POV.The sound of soft music hitting my ears had me opening my eyes slowly to find that my cheek was planted on the window. And then with embarrassment, I pulled away from the window and winced with regret when I saw a smudge of my makeup on the widow. I knew Luca was watching me all the while and I managed to ignore his heavy gaze until I whipped out my phone and checked to see that my makeup was still okay. I let out a sigh of relief at that and then decided to face him with an awkward smile on my face. His lips were pulled into a tight frown and i could tell that he was highly disappointed. "We're here you know?" He said, gesturing towards the fancy looking building ahead of us that I now realised was where the soft music was coming from."I'm sorry, I haven't really been sleeping well," I grimaced at him, feeling the embarassment all the way down to my spine. He shot me a nasty and disgusted look before looking away towards the window where some nicely dressed people
The Billionaire's Revenge Wife CHAPTER TWENTY THREE
SCARLETT'S POV.I was completely right. The party was boring as hell, and from the looks of things we weren't even near done here. And then even worse, the annoying as fuck MC who thoughts his jokes were so funny but they were obviously not, had been wasting so much time on the third segment of the programme which was jokes and riddles, that I almost threw my shoe at him.If I heard one more uncle joke coming from his mouth, I could just do it right there, damning all the consequences. In my opinion, I saw no reason for anyone to add jokes and riddles to their birthday party programme, but anyways who was I judge? I didn't have as much money as John and I certainly had never thrown a birthday party for rich people alone before so...Anyways I was bored beyond comprehension and my darling husband was doing nothing to help, in fact he was more interested in focusing really hard on what the lame ass MC was saying than me. I wouldn't have minded the silence between us on any other day, b
The Billionaire's Revenge Wife CHAPTER TWENTY FOUR
LUCA'S POV.I was enjoying the conversation about stocks and business with the men around me when all of a sudden I got a leading to look over to Scarlett at our seat at the far end of the room. And when I did, I swear I almost took a wine glass from the waiter and smashed it against the wall.The only thing that stopped me from doing that was the fact that I respected John too much as a business partner to cause a crazy scene at his party. What the fuck was Scarlett doing with Penelope Cruz? That woman had screwed me over and messed with me in ways that I hadn't even thought were possible. It all started when I was still an upcoming CEO and we'd met at a fundraiser her father had invited me too. I'd been so honoured and glad that he'd invited me to such an important event, that I'd been ready to do anything to please him and that meant sucking up to his daughter.Penelope however had turned out to be really good company that night and in no time we'd made a connection that was so s
