The Perks Of Divorcing My Billionaire Husband When Did She Say That?
Some people were so hypocritical to the point of playing two characters so flawlessly at once. In Vaughn's case, one was the kind and loving husband who would do anything for his wife, while the other was the heartless psychopath who cared about no one else except himself.While having breakfast that morning, Bella found it hard to suppress her emotions. The fear and anger from yesterday would always resurface whenever her husband looked at her with false, gentle eyes or even kissed her. She would always recall the multiple times he had hit her, hurt her badly to the point of being hospitalized.Did this man not have a conscience? Was there no self-guilt? How could he live with himself knowing that he was putting on an act? He clearly didn't love her, so why insist on leading her into thinking he did? Why couldn't he let her go?"Eat some more, you've lost a bit of weight these past few days," Vaughn said softly. He put some more pancakes on her plate and even offered to make her some

Seeing the horrified look on her face, Damien chuckled. "I was just joking."Bella sighed in relief. Knowing how love-struck she had been in the past, she wouldn’t have doubted if she’d actually said something like that. She and Damien used to be good friends before she met Vaughn. He would always tease her like this. At one point, everyone thought they were dating, but then his demon cousin showed up, and the rest was history."Don’t say things like that; I actually believed you just now. Who would commit suicide by choking on a bar of soap?" The idea was ludicrous.Damien looked at her deeply. Seeing her like this, he was almost tempted to bring up the time she’d nearly dyed her hair blonde and gotten tattoos around her belly button just because she’d heard a rumor that Vaughn was into that aesthetic.This woman had done a lot of foolish things in her life for the love of a man. Damien had gone from seeing her as a genuine friend to thinking she was crazy; he had even been disgusted

"Can I make love to you? It’s been a while since we last did it, don’t you agree, baby?"Bella finally couldn't hold back a reaction. Her entire body tensed, and she looked at Vaughn with wide, stunned eyes. "What?"Vaughn smiled and brushed a strand of hair behind her ear. His movements were graceful and very delicate, and his voice was filled with patience as he explained, "We don’t have to, of course, but I just feel it’s been a while. I... I miss how beautiful you look under me. I want to hear those sweet moans of yours again."Let it be said that Vaughn might be a man with a high libido, but the only time they’d had sex was during the first few days of their marriage, back when they had gone on a honeymoon in the Maldives. Even then, he had insisted on using protection. The sex had been great for her, but it felt like her husband wasn’t that into it.Since then, they’d only exchanged kisses, and even that had grown very rare over the passing years. Bella would have probably found

Bella wasn't aware that Vaughn had already started suspecting her. At the moment, she was just glad that she wouldn't have to deal with that hypocrite anymore.Feeling worn out from the day's events, she stripped off her clothes and got under her sheets. It didn’t take long before she fell asleep.When she woke up the next morning, she got dressed and made herself some breakfast. She took a taxi to school; Vaughn had offered to get her a private car, but she had turned him down, afraid he would just use the opportunity to plant a spy by her side.While sitting in the car, she browsed through her phone. She had some text messages from Vaughn and her parents, all asking her to take care of herself. What caught her attention, however, was a text message from an unknown number.“Your husband isn’t as loyal as you think.”Those words put her in a trance—they sounded very familiar. She realized it was the same text message she had received that day at the hotel, the one that had made her co

Bella didn't go home immediately after seeing Eliza off; her mind was filled with thoughts about whether to take what the woman had said seriously. She didn't think Eliza was lying to her about this matter; the other woman had seemed sincere.So why would Jessica say they weren’t biological sisters? Had she only said it to convince Eliza to help her out? Did her words hold any truth?Bella wasn’t naive. She had long noticed the lack of resemblance between herself and Jessica. While most might consider her attractive, when compared to her blonde bombshell of a sister, she dulled in comparison. But she never thought much about it, as her dad had dark hair, so she figured she had inherited her brunette looks from him.Her childhood had been good; her parents had been loving and supportive, and she'd never had a reason to complain. She and Jessica had been treated equally and raised with so much love. So how could they not be biological sisters? It didn’t make sense!The thought of being

The day goes by in a blur. Bella can't seem to focus on any of her classes, not when her mind is a jumbled mess. She flops badly in her dance classes, even more than usual, and the displeased look the teacher gives her is enough to make her want to crawl into a hole and die. But persist she did, urgently wanting to get this awful day done and over with. After leaving the dance studio, she finds a spot under a shady tree to sit. She scrolls through her phone but only sees text messages from Vaughn and her parents, who are still convinced they can get her to return to Vaughn's mansion in New York to keep him company. Bella thinks she'd rather crawl into the deepest part of hell than return to that place, which brings back so many torturous memories. She replies to Vaughn's messages to avoid appearing suspicious. She ignores her parents, not wanting to indulge them further. The only highlight of her day is when she goes to see Damien. Maybe the pop star knew she would be in a bad mood

"You know him?" Damien was surprised, seeing the two of them bickering with familiarity.Bella huffed, "It’s just a coincidence. I met him at the park... that day..."She didn’t need to emphasize which day she meant; Damien understood. He still felt guilty for not being there to accompany her, but he knew that some things she needed to face alone. It was the only way she could identify who was truly with or against her.The stranger glanced between the crybaby and Damien, sensing a hint of intimacy between them. The way they seemed to communicate through mere eye contact was irritating. He couldn’t deny he had a peculiar interest in the woman; she was fierce and seemed to share his interests. Forced here by his brother on behalf of the company, he figured he might as well enjoy himself."The name’s Silas, Silas Walker. I’m sure you’ve heard of me. Even if you haven’t, I’m not offended. We can still go somewhere private and get to know each other," he flirted shamelessly, unfazed by th

For someone like Silas, who had grown up with an overindulgent brother and a workaholic father who used money to solve problems, he’d never once been verbally disciplined. Now, he’d suddenly received a shoe to the face. He was so stunned that he couldn’t react for a long time.When he did, it seemed he didn’t feel anger in the end. He chuckled and wiped his face. Wow, fierce women were really the best. "Okay, don’t be angry. I didn’t mean it maliciously."Bella didn’t even want to acknowledge the man anymore. His thinking aligned with Vaughn’s. As expected, most men raised in wealthy families seemed to grow up with the mindset that they could get whatever they wanted with money."I still have things to do, so I’ll go first." She said her goodbyes to Damien and left.Silas watched her retreating figure, his eyes falling on her slim waist and voluptuous backside, hugged by the short dress she wore. He said to Damien, "How about you give me her number?""She is a married woman.""Huh?" T

There was no one else in the house when Bella arrived. She had checked the living room, the library, the private lounge, and even the study, where her father and older brother usually spent most of their time at home. They must have been off working somewhere. Well, too bad. She had actually brought them something—just a few snacks she’d picked up from Japan.It was mostly guilt that compelled her to do something nice for them. After all, she was only able to travel and live comfortably because of their support. And she’d been giving them the cold shoulder ever since she moved back in after the divorce. Sure, she’d been going through a lot, but she could have at least tried to show some gratitude. She only realized how rude she had been now that she was clear-headed (and had almost gotten killed, thanks to Eric).Bella placed the bag of chips, sweets, and chocolates in the kitchen and grabbed a drink for herself. She went upstairs to her room, humming a tune under her breath. She froz
The Perks Of Divorcing My Billionaire Husband The Heart Wants What The Heart Wants
The drive back to the villa is silent. While Kyouka is probably thinking of more ways to convince his sister to come back home, Bella is preoccupied with how she would face Vaughn. If she’d known that calling him at that time wouldn’t have helped her, she would have just relied on Eric—despite how useless the billionaire had been as well.She wonders how the scene would play out: Eric and Vaughn in the same room, breathing the same air. How entertaining that would be. When the car finally pulls up in front of Kyouka’s residence, Bella hesitates for a moment before stepping out and following the Yakuza leader inside.Eric and Vaughn are settled in the living room. Vaughn sits with his legs crossed, taking slow drags from a cigarette, while Eric signs a few papers under Ayato’s watchful eye. Bella is more surprised to see the two coexisting peacefully than by her ex-husband’s smoking. Vaughn didn’t smoke; he couldn’t stand the smell and was always quick to lecture about how harmful it w
The Perks Of Divorcing My Billionaire Husband Here Comes Your Man
Even though no one had made a move to hurt her or force her into anything, Bella was still uneasy. The further Kyouka led her through the house, the more she became aware of just how many people lived there. All were strong men clad in Japanese-style outfits; some even carried katanas. It was the kind of scene one only saw in movies—too unreal. Bella might have been fascinated by the entire setup if her life weren’t hanging by a thread. One wrong move, and she might just cease to exist.Kyouka was clearly the youngest, yet he commanded the most respect. The men bowed to him, offering a chorused greeting. The young man, already accustomed to this, hardly reacted. He led Bella through a set of double doors into a bare room. A futon was laid on the ground, and a table and stool sat in one corner.“This is my sister's room,” Kyouka said. How that had anything to do with Bella, she didn’t know.“It’s... pretty.”“There used to be more here—a dresser, photos on the wall. My sister loved art

Bella was thrown roughly into the backseat of a Jeep. A piece of cloth had been stuffed into her mouth while in the elevator. Strangely enough, nobody made a move to rescue her as she was taken out of the hotel.They drove for two hours straight, and Bella counted down every agonizing minute. The Jeep pulled up in front of a Japanese-style villa. She was brought to her feet and led forward. The house had few furnishings, mostly carved from expensive wood. Instead of chairs, they had stools and low tables. Bella hardly had time to admire the decor before she was shoved in front of a door.Akira whispered to her in a low tone, "If you want to get through this with your limbs intact, you better behave. Speak only when spoken to."This guy clearly wasn't joking. Feeling afraid for her limbs, Bella obediently kept quiet even as the gag was taken out of her mouth.Three men dressed in black kimonos with dragon patterns approached. Akira bowed to one of them and whispered something in Japane
The Perks Of Divorcing My Billionaire Husband Taken By The Yakuza
"So, what you're telling me is, your life is currently in grave danger, and Eric is responsible?"Bella was certain she hadn't explicitly blamed Eric for what happened, though it was indeed his fault. Vaughn had always been hateful toward the other billionaire. They shared a mutual dislike and found any reason to go at each other's throats. She couldn’t be bothered with it. "Tell Silas about it. He’ll come get me.""I can come get you. I’ll have the jet ready—it’ll only be a few hours.""Vaughn, for the last time, I don’t want you here! Stay away!""Then why did you call me if you—""Are you stupid?! I already said I don’t know any other number except yours. I left my phone back at my place, so I have no means of reaching out to Silas by myself. Do me one favor: tell Silas about it. I’ll repay you."Bella was almost certain Vaughn was rolling his eyes at her words. He was always dismissive of her like this, and it pissed her off to no end. Honestly, she’d planned to never have anythin
The Perks Of Divorcing My Billionaire Husband Mingling With His Rival
Bella woke up in a boat—a goddamn boat! She stared at the water below in astonishment. Eric, who was propelling the boat toward the island already coming into view, took notice of her."Finally awake?""What the fuck?!""Wow, very classy.""You!... Where the hell are you taking me?! What's going on?!""See that island over there? It's mine. We'll be spending a few days there, at least until my men take care of this whole mess."By "mess," he probably meant the men who had been trying to kill him—a deadly situation Eric had successfully managed to drag her into. The whole thing was unbelievable. To think she had come to Tokyo to enjoy some peace and quiet, an escape from her once dramatic life. The last thing she'd expected was to encounter Eric here, let alone have him drag her along to some stupid island without her permission."Who told you to do this?! Why didn't you drop me off at a police station?"Eric scoffed, thinking to himself that this woman was not as smart as he had given
The Perks Of Divorcing My Billionaire Husband The Devil At Her Doorstep
Bella was uncertain at first, but by the second day, she was actually excited about being in Tokyo. The people were friendly, already used to seeing tourists around, so she didn’t get any stares or rude comments. The language barrier was the only hitch, but Bella wasn’t that social anyway. She was just here for the fun of it.For the first time in weeks, she actually felt relaxed. Knowing she was far away from her past, even if only for a few weeks, made her feel at ease. She had rented an apartment in a nice neighborhood. She’d had to deposit rent for three months, but with some consideration, she might just settle here for a longer period than she’d initially thought. She was certain Ethan Walker wouldn’t mind, and even if he did, it wasn’t like Bella owed him much. She was now a free woman and could do whatever she wanted.Freedom came with eating whatever she wanted to her heart’s content. She no longer had the nagging fear of what Vaughn might think of her figure if she started g
The Perks Of Divorcing My Billionaire Husband The Divorced Heiress Moves On
The big day finally came. The whole city was shaken by it. All TV channels and media outlets were lined up outside the courtroom, all eager to be the first to broadcast the biggest breakup of the year. If only they could interview the couple and get some juicy inside details—it would be even better. But, funny enough, Vaughn didn't even show up in court. He had his lawyers handle the case, and they were willing to give Bella whatever assets she might ask for. Millions of dollars were set out in the open for her taking. And Bella thought it was just Vaughn's last means of mocking her. Even at a time like this, he was showing his good side for the world to see. Clearly, she was the one who filed for the divorce, and Vaughn, being the kind and benevolent husband he was, seemed willing to give her whatever she desired. Truly, she appeared like a true gold digger in court. This was one of the most embarrassing moments of her life. The case was finalized within an hour, and their marri

She’d never seen the man so obsessed before.The news of the divorce had taken the world by storm. Many people were in disbelief as Vaughn and Bella were viewed as the perfect couple. They’d been seen together acting all loved-up, and now they were separating?While Bella seemed to have disappeared completely from the public eye, Vaughn, unfortunately, was left to deal with the aftermath of the divorce. The paparazzi followed him like a second shadow. The blinding flash of their cameras and the inappropriate questions they threw at him pissed him off to no end.
