The Billionaire's Runaway Ex-Wife Do I know him?
The next morning, when Roseanne woke up, Nicholas was gone, much to her surprise. She had fallen asleep the previous night with the expectation of seeing him in the morning. However, upon waking, she found herself alone. She asked Ellora, “Where is Nicholas?”Upon searching his study, she found it empty. Having overslept, she skipped breakfast and sought Ellora's help in locating him.Ellora informed her, “He went to work.”“Oh?” The possibility had crossed her mind, but she hadn't dwelled on it. What would she do now? “When?” she inquired. She felt a little sad about it. “Almost an hour ago,” Ellora replied.Roseanne regretted her tardiness, as she had slept late and missed the chance to meet him. Now, she would have to wait for him all day, a prospect that made time feel painfully slow.Ellora informed her, “He mentioned that he might not be back tonight. He has something important to address.”“Okay,” Roseanne replied, her heart sinking with the realization that she wouldn't see

"God, Nathaniel. With what monster were you possessed?" Roseanne's voice trembled as she scanned the room, her unease palpable. Deciding to focus on her task, she sifted through the books she planned to take for Coco and Leon, convinced that books were their best gift.One book caught her eye, resting on the study table as though untouched for years. Retrieving it, a yellowed note fluttered to the ground.‘You must come with me, loving me, to death; or else hate me, and still come with me.’The words sent a chill down Roseanne's spine, prompting her to return the book to its place with a mix of curiosity and apprehension. "What on earth were you possessed with, Nathan?"She knew that she should not judge him too soon. However, she could not control the urge to. She turned to Wuthering Heights, a book placed on the book shelve over his desk. She flipped through its pages while spotting several highlighted quotes. Each quote held a clue to Nathaniel's inner mind. It was a world she sou

"Madam, have you seen Mr. Hart?" Johnson approached Roseanne and asked the question. It was ironic that his secretary was asking her, as she hadn't even seen him properly for many days. Anyways, things around here haven't been normal these days. Roseanne replied, suppressing her own feelings, "I have no idea."What did she say when she had been terribly wanting to get a glimpse of him? Alas, it wasn't possible for her. Johnson informed her, "There is an important matter to discuss with him.""I will call him," Roseanne said. She didn't know if he would answer her call or not, but she felt she should give it a try since Johnson had come seeking her help."I already tried. His phone is switched off. We can't reach him," Johnson informed her. It was unusual; he could always reach his boss. But these days, Nicholas was acting very strangely, and now everyone knew something was going on.Roseanne pondered silently. It has become increasingly difficult to reach Nicholas lately. Initially,

When Roseanne arrived at the hospital, she was immediately ushered to meet with the attending doctors. Her purpose there was clear: to sign crucial paperwork on behalf of Nicholas for her father. It was ironic that she was there on behalf of someone to care for her father. She laughed at the irony of life. “What's wrong with him?” she asked the head doctor, her heart pounding with worry. Despite his status as a convict, Jacob received top-notch medical care, thanks to Nicholas' arrangements. Roseanne was aware of Nicholas's involvement in securing these privileges. It left a bitter taste in her mouth for some reasons. The doctor's words hit her like a ton of bricks. “He's been diagnosed with liver cancer,” he said gravely. Hearing those, Roseanne's world momentarily stopped. It was a betrayal she couldn't fathom. How was it possible? Before questions would come rushing to her head, she realized that she was not ready to accept this bitter fact. The doctor continued while explaini

"What are you talking about?" Roseanne asked, feigning ignorance about anything concerning Mrs. Taylor that she wasn't supposed to know. She had learned the ins and outs of the game over these three years, realizing that a good person couldn't survive in this world; one had to be petty to survive, or the world would consume them entirely.Mrs. Taylor was in danger, something she had to evade at all costs, or else she would disrupt the house of cards she had built instantly. Mrs. Taylor knew her secret, one she didn't want anyone else to discover, especially Sabrina or Mr. Nikolai Hart.Hadn't it been Mrs. Taylor who preached to her about playing games or else she'd always be miserable? Roseanne smiled inwardly. Had this woman ever considered that these games might one day be used against her? She chuckled internally at life's irony."Roseanne De Luca, or shall I say Anne Rose Swift?" Mrs. Taylor smirked. "You cannot soar high while I keep a noose around your neck. Before attempting to

Roseanne's eyes burned with tears as anger threatened to consume her. Why was he speaking as though he was obligated to protect her? It was his choice to safeguard her, driven by his desire to repent for what his father had done to Leon!She confronted him, “I don't see how I did anything wrong. I don't understand why you're so upset. So what if I went to meet him? What's the harm? I only did it because Johnson asked me to. Otherwise, how would I have known?”Nicholas huffed in frustration, “Fine. Fair enough.”He presented her with a document, the green ink of her signature stark against the paper. “What about these papers you signed agreeing to donate your liver to Jacob?”“He's my father—” Roseanne began to defend herself.Nicholas erupted, “Damn it! You're not Anne Rose anymore. You're Roseanne DeLuca. Have you forgotten that?”She attempted to explain, but he cut her off, saying, “If these papers had gone through, do you realize the implications? Everyone would be suspicious of y

When Roseanne and Nicholas reached Emery and Luke's place, the dinner had already started. She was surprised to see Sabrina there, chatting with Luke's family. Nobody else from the Taylor family was there. As they entered Emery's eyes fell on the couple, she said, “I thought you guys will bail out.”Roseanne smiled. “Not me.”Emery hugged both of them and they all took seats around the dining table. Roseanne noted that Coco and Leon were sitting between Nikolai and Ellora and refrained herself from expressing any emotion. “Grandpa!” Coco said suddenly as Nikolai was digging in his plate. Roseanne and Nicholas immediately looked at that side to see what happened. Coco blinked her beautiful eyes and said, “I want french fries.”Nikolai was bewildered. What was he supposed to do here? He looked at his wife, startled. Ellota sighed and said, “Pass the girl fries, Nikolai.”Then, he understood what she was talking about. He never expected to be startled by such a little human being.

Nicholas was surprised when Roseanne suddenly appeared beside him silently. He looked at her and she offered him a smile. Seeing the smile on her lips, he asked himself if he even deserved it. For three days, he had been running from her because he didn't have the courage to talk to her. How could he talk to her when he was lying to her face? Even if he wasn't lying, he was hiding a big truth. He needed a heart of stone to tell her that. Everyday he would make himself ready to confess to her, he would fail. Due to this, he would not be able to talk to her at all. “What are you doing?” She asked him as he was standing in the garden alone. They had come home from Emery's a while ago. This time, she came with his mother while the latter made her drop Sabrina home. Currently, he was standing in the garden, looking at nothing in particular as he was feeling restless and caged inside the house. Everyday he would not come home on time and would not meet anyone. But today he couldn't do th

The Billionaire's Runaway Ex-Wife Broken But Beautiful
Charlotte walked into the room and noticed only a grand piano, nothing else. She looked around, confused. Did not he say that he wanted to show her the birthday gift for his father? Or was he saying it just to spend time with her? Then again. Why would he even want to spend time with her? "Where's the gift you wanted to show me?" she asked Sebastian after a while when she could not control her thoughts.He pointed at the piano with a soft smile. "There."Charlotte raised an eyebrow. "You want to give your dad a piano?"She could not think of another explanation of why would he want to bring her to a room that only had a piano in it. Sebastian chuckled and shook his head. "No," he said, walking toward the piano. He sat down on the stool and placed his fingers on the keys.The music started, and Charlotte stood frozen. The sound was so beautiful and emotional like the piano was telling a story all on its own. She couldn’t describe how it made her feel, but it was like a deep sadness m
The Billionaire's Runaway Ex-Wife Lead the Way
"Sebastian King. Pleased to meet you," Sebastian introduced himself, his voice smooth as he extended his hand to the Hart brothers."Likewise.”Sebastian smiled an enigmatic expression with no hint of malice or curiosity but still carrying an unmistakable poise that made it hard to look away.The introductions concluded just as more guests began to trickle in. Alessia, Leon, and Callum made their way to their designated table, while Charlotte excused herself to take a call. “So?” Leon asked, glancing at his brother. “What do you think?”Callum leaned back slightly, his sharp eyes flickering with thought. Unlike Rhys and Leon, Callum had an uncanny ability to read people. He was the observer, blending into the background while Rhys commanded attention and Leon’s charisma drew people in. It gave him the advantage of seeing what others often missed.“He’s... something,” Callum admitted, his tone measured. “Even I’m a little starstruck, to be honest. The guy isn’t just handsome, he is be
The Billionaire's Runaway Ex-Wife Testing him
Today was the day of Carter King’s birthday party. Along with Charlotte, Sia was invited too, and since she decided to attend, Leon was her plus one. It was not a big event but a very intimate birthday party. Still the guests surpased a few hundred. Charlotte was nervous the whole way. Thankfully, she was attending with her brother and best friend. She dragged Callum as her plus one since she didn’t want to appear alone.Sia and Leon entered first.All the while, Sebastian’s gaze was on the door as if he was waiting for someone to enter. When that person arrived, his eyes lit up, but it soon diminished as he saw her holding a man’s arm. The man looked younger, but he couldn’t tell much.When Charlotte appeared to greet Carter, she intentionally didn’t look at Sebastian, but she could feel his gaze bore a hole into her head. As Carter saw Charlotte, he forgot all the guests.He didn’t bother with formalities and hugged Charlotte. “My girl. How are you? It has been months since I last
The Billionaire's Runaway Ex-Wife Whirlwind of EMotions
From across the room, someone was watching the entire scene unfold with an amused glint in his stormy grey eyes.Sebastian leaned back as his lips curled into a half-smile, clearly enjoying the drama, but there was something else in his gaze. Something deeper and darker.“Mr. King, what are you watching?” one of his business partners asked, noting Sebastian’s lingering attention.Sebastian’s eyes never wavered from the group. “Mr. Jones, I hope you don’t mind, but I just spotted an old friend. Would you mind if I went over and said hello?”“Not at all, we are done here,” Mr. Jones replied, excusing himself as he walked away.Meanwhile, Charlotte, having just made her point to Ronan, turned to rejoin her girls. But as she did, she froze. Her gaze met a pair of stormy grey eyes. Eyes that seemed to burn with a quiet intensity.For a moment, Charlotte thought it was just another mirage, a trick her mind was playing on her. She moved as her steps were hesitant, but those eyes followed her.
The Billionaire's Runaway Ex-Wife Disappointment
Tonight, the Hart girls had planned a much-needed night out. Charlotte and Abella took the lead, guiding Sia, Kate, and Estelle to one of their favourite clubs. Over the past few days, Estelle had been spending time with Abella, and despite their age difference, the two had become fast friends. So, when Abella invited her to join the group, Estelle didn’t hesitate.Estelle had a naturally chill personality. Even though she was a bit more reserved, she knew how to let loose when the moment called for it.“Boss, I missed you!” Kate exclaimed as she threw her arms around Sia, hugging her tightly and refusing to let go.“Come on, Kate, I’m not your boss here,” Sia said, laughing as she tried to pry Kate off, but Kate clung to her like glue.“I know that! But calling you by your name still gives me the shivers,” Kate grinned mischievously. “You are scary.”Charlotte raised a brow and teased, “How can Sia baby possibly be scary?”The girls burst into laughter as Sia shot them a glare. Normal
The Billionaire's Runaway Ex-Wife A New Beginning
“Where are you taking me, Leon?” Sia asked, her voice tinged with curiosity and amusement. He had covered her eyes with his hands and was carefully guiding her along the path. From the moment they met that morning, she could see the anticipation in his eyes. There was excitement, almost boyish, but beneath it there was a hint of nervousness, as if he wasn’t entirely sure how his secret plan would unfold.“Just a minute,” Leon replied his voice brimming with eagerness. “Once we are there, you will see.”They walked along the winding and uneven path, Sia grumbling at every step. Finally, after what felt like an eternity to her and just a blink to him, he stopped.“We are here,” he announced softly. Then, his voice took on a deeper and more heartfelt tone. “Before you open your eyes, I want to tell you—I love you so much, and I can’t wait to start this new chapter of our life together.”Sia felt her heart skip a beat at his words. Slowly, Leon removed his hands, and she opened her eyes.
The Billionaire's Runaway Ex-Wife WHo is she?
“What do you want to know about her?” Carter asked, his tone measured as he observed his son’s restless demeanour. He wondered if his son recalled anything about her? As much as he knew that stubborn yet kind woman, she would not come to him again. “Who is Charlotte?” Sebastian asked directly, his voice tinged with both curiosity and apprehension.Carter leaned back in his chair, folding his hands together. “She is your wife. Or rather, she was your wife.”Sebastian frowned. “Our divorce isn’t finalized yet,” he corrected.“Great,” Carter said with a small satisfied smile.Sebastian raised an eyebrow, surprised by his father’s reaction. “Are you happy that we are still married?”“You bet I am,” Carter replied with a nonchalant shrug.Sebastian leaned forward, his confusion evident. “As much as I know you, you are an overprotective man. How on earth did you approve of a woman who married me after what was, by all accounts, a drunken mistake?”Carter chuckled, his expression softening.
The Billionaire's Runaway Ex-Wife Questions and Answers
“What’s up?” Sia asked, leaning casually against the doorframe. Charlotte was sitting quietly in her room, staring at nothing in particular.“I met Sebastian,” Charlotte said flatly, her voice devoid of any emotion.“Oh?” Sia raised an eyebrow, feigning ignorance. “How did that go?”It was as if she was not sitting with Anne and scheming about Charlotte. Charlotte gave her a look. “Knock it off. I know you already know everything. Whatever you are thinking, it’s not going to happen. He asked me to sign the divorce papers, not to be his wife.”Sia stepped into the room, sitting across from her. “The real question is, do you want to be his wife?”Charlotte’s gaze faltered. “He doesn’t even remember me, Sia. And don’t forget—he loves Emily. Always has, always will.”“Did you ask him if Emily is still in his life?” Sia pressed, tilting her head.Charlotte shrugged. “How does it even matter?”“Coco,” Sia said, “How does it not matter? Why are you being such a coward? We both know you still
The Billionaire's Runaway Ex-Wife Scheming
“So, Saturday night at Apollo’s? It’s a date,” Andrew said, taking a chance with the woman of his dreams. They were standing on the porch of the café. With Charlotte’s high-heeled boots, she stood an inch taller than him.Before she could respond, a smiling hunk with his arms crossed over his chest approached and said, “No, it’s not.”Charlotte froze at the sound of the deep, husky voice that had haunted her dreams. She didn’t dare turn around. What if it was him? What would she do? And if it wasn’t him, how would she handle the crushing disappointment?Andrew frowned at the interruption and asked, “Who are you, man?”“Why don’t you ask the lady?” the stranger replied, cocking an eyebrow.Andrew turned to Charlotte. “Do you know him?”Without even glancing at the man, Charlotte said firmly, “No.”Andrew wasn’t convinced. There was an undeniable tension between them with her avoidance and his unwavering stare. It was as if an unspoken history filled the space between them.“Well,” And
