Wooing His Billioanire Ex-Wife Chapter 18 Having feelings for Vanessa?
When David saw the unnerving tension that was developing between Vanessa and Austin, he was perplexed. But when he saw the brave front Vanessa was putting on, he was really tempted to give her a thumbs up!Because many of the famous men couldn't withstand Austin's powerful aura, let alone a woman, who was once so meek and obedient to Austin stood up to him without batting an eyelid!Wow! What an unforgettable scene to the eyes!Seeing the cold man who wasn't even bothered to budge and stood across her with his frosty eyes glaring daggers at her, she was amused and her brows twitched.She couldn't help but let the snort out and queried, "do you need anything else, Mr. Jones?"Hearing her mockery added with her nonchalance made his veins pop out in anger, and he clenched his fists so hard that his knuckles turned white to suppress his fury.Eyeing the pretentious woman in front of him, who was behaving as if she wasn't the one who had just provoked him and riled him up, he just didn't h
Wooing His Billioanire Ex-Wife Chapter 19 She didn't exist in his eyes!
After Austin had left the venue, Vanessa breathed a sigh of relief and began sipping various beverages with her pals while they continued to converse, and she occasionally caught up with them in the conversation, all the while giving encouraging nods and gentle smiles.By the time the party ended, Vanessa had become a little tipsy, and she chose to contact a designated driver to take her home because that was the only alternative that appeared best for herWhen the car came to a halt across her house, she quickly strode away in stumbling steps while her eyelids were drooping, and she was knocked out on her bed in no time!The bright orangish hues were sprawling across the glass window as the sun was in its full view, while Vanessa was sleeping peacefully, unaware of the sensation she had caused overnight.When the clock struck seven, the quiet room was banged with her ringtone and she reluctantly fiddled with her fingers while her eyes were still closed.As she couldn't find her damn
Wooing His Billioanire Ex-Wife Chapter 20 It's time to pay a visit!
After Vanessa was done with her meetings, it was already past twelve o'clock and she stretched her sore muscles lightly as a relaxed sigh escaped her lips.Since she had been suddenly appointed as a General Manager of the Grant Corporation, all the employees were gossipping about her arrival, and she had become a hot topic in the company.In just a couple of days after her appointment, the staff in the company had come to several conclusions about Vanessa's miraculous appearance.According to them, the most compelling version was Vanessa has a sugar daddy who might be a high-level associate in the main branch. Since even the HR team members couldn't access Vanessa's resume from three years ago after she had completed her graduation.So, to them, the conclusion was clear that Vanessa appeared out of nowhere because of her background but not of her capabilities.Although sooner or later Vanessa was going to take charge of Grant Corporation, for the time being, she chose to keep her iden

The night was dazzling with all the luxury cars parked in their spots, and the venue was filled with people while the security officers were on guard since most of the rich socialites and prominent figures in New York were attending the celebration.When Vanessa and Fiona stood near the gate with their invitation cards in their hands and were about to step in, they accidentally heard the conversation between Mia and Clara.As the realization that her ex mother-in-law and sister-in-law were talking about her, a smirk settled on Vanessa's beautiful face while her eyebrows twitched, but she marched ahead without pausing her steps for even a second, as she was looking forward to an amusing show to unveil at the party while her eyes shone with coldness.Vanessa was curious as to how Mia would obtain her contact information in the party.Apparently, the Ford's were a well known family in New York City with their origins deeply rooted in the city for hundreds of generations, and they ranked
Wooing His Billioanire Ex-Wife Chapter 22 Am I not qualified?
Although Vanessa attended the celebration at Ford's, the main motive behind her appearance was to grasp the exact situation with the land deal she was going after.And what would be the better place than today's venue to have a meet with the industry experts and know the ins and outs of it?Along with it, she was also here to interact with her acquaintances and improve her professional network. Since she was sure her presence in New York was needed for the time being, and it might even last till a year or so.To top it off, the news of Vanessa being the new General manager of the Grant Corporation had spread to all of the businessmen in the city, and it was no secret!However, keeping the gossiping socialites aside, the CEOs and other high officials of various businesses were more or less worried to know how it would affect their collaboration with Grant Corporation with this sudden new change.Anyhow, most of the intellectuals among them had probably realized that she was the ex-wife
Wooing His Billioanire Ex-Wife Chapter 23 Do you think that was enough?
Hearing the commotion, Hudson Ford quickly marched to them and eyed Mia with a frown. With a squint, his eyes landed on Vanessa whose aura was utterly frosty all of a sudden.As he was a good friend of Austin, he knew both Mia and Vanessa well and was suddenly off guard when he saw them facing each other with different expressions swirling on their faces.He couldn't help himself but question them with a probing gaze, "what was going on?""Hudson, I don't know how Vanessa managed to squeeze in here, but she was caught red handed when she was trying to steal my bracelet," Mia stated with a proud smirk on her face.Hearing her words, Hudson was taken aback for a split second when Mia continued, while arrogance was dancing on her face, "Hudson, order the guards to chase these two crooks out. Or else, we don't know what more they will do."With a sneer, Mia gritted her teeth, "we don't want our guests to lose their valuables, now do we? So kick them out!"Listening to her words, Vanessa f
Wooing His Billioanire Ex-Wife Chapter 24 Weren't you satisfied with the humiliation?
After Vanessa slammed the check right on Mia's face, she glanced at her miserable appearance one last time and averted her gaze to Fiona. Without any delay, she muttered, "We should take our leave!"Fiona wore a pleasing smirk on her face after she saw how Mia was taught a lesson by Vanessa and happily obliged.But after she took one step forward, she couldn't help but peep at Mia suspiciously while a frown was settled on her beautiful face, and Fiona asked perplexed, "Did she have any psychological troubles or is she dim witted?"Hearing Fiona's question, Vanessa didn't even bother to think much and uttered lazily, "how would I know?"As the words escaped her mouth, Fiona snickered while her lips curled downwards in disgust eyeing Mia, "your 500,000 meant nothing for us. Don't behave as if you were the only one with a bunch of money."With a sneer, she muttered, "such a dumb bitch!"With that, they strode forward as their moods were annoyed, but Mia had heard them all, although their
Wooing His Billioanire Ex-Wife Chapter 25 Will you do nothing?
After Vanessa had rushed out of the venue leaving Mia behind all humiliated and the crowd was flabbergasted, and the word of what happened at the party had spread like a wild fire across the city.Since the Jones family was one of the prestigious families in the city with numerous power and wealth, naturally, Mia was held in high regard wherever she went since she was the darling daughter of the Jones family and it was no secret.But the incident that happened tonight, had damaged her reputation on a whole another level, and she could probably never raise her head like usual with arrogance dripping from her every nerve.However, Vanessa's actions visibly reflected how least of importance she had in regards to Mia's five hundred thousand bracelet.Because Vanessa didn't even bother to bat an eyelid while she tossed the check, that Mia had so exaggerated!With tears rolling down like a flooded dam, Mia bolted out of the room without any care for her image.Hudson, who stood aside, eyed

It's been a year and a half since they were married and he couldn't be any more happier.He got his love and they both built a house for themselves, wiping away all the bad memories in their lives and welcomed the joy with their open hands."Ouch." Vanessa exclaimed when Austin paused and quickly tended to her, "what's wrong, Nessa? Shall we go to the hospital?""No, Austin. Our naughty baby was moving and kicked me hard." Vanessa said and chuckled a little.Even though she was bloated and a little plump, his eyes were always on her, making her feel even more beautiful than she already is.The pregnancy glow on her face was clear, showing how happy she was with him, in their love nest, waiting to welcome the fruits of their love.He placed a kiss on her baby bump and lifted her in his arms when she squealed, "let me down, Austin.""No, I'm not letting you walk like this," Austin sa

Vanessa settled herself onto her chair and massaged her temples a little to relieve her stress a little after the long meeting she had.But Catherine came knocking on her door, "Miss Grant. Mr. Jones is waiting for you."As soon as Catherine said that, a sigh escaped her lips and she mumbled, "alright. I'd be out soon."Catherine nodded and went away, while Vanessa didn't know whether to laugh or cry because she underestimated Austin.A few weeks passed by since he declared, "let's start a fresh, Vanessa!"And in these weeks, he was trying his best to come to her and take her out and do all the little things she always wanted him to do for her.Seeing all of that, she didn't know how to reject him, because she couldn't lie to herself and pretend that it was nothing when Austin was changing. For her!She clearly remembered all of their dates they were having almost every other day and he never failed to surprise her with how much effort and consideration he was taking to get her back.

"Vanessa's car is broken, Austin. And you're urging me to start the car and drove away?" David's words echoed in Austin's ears. Nonetheless, he put on an emotionless facade and mumbled coldly, "What business do I have in that?"However, when he uttered those words, the car wasn't moved completely out of sight from Vanessa and Fiona, and his voice wasn't too low.Hearing his words made Vanessa purse her lips tightly, but the smile didn't leave her face even after she listened to every word clearly, and in no time the car passed away as if nothing happened, and in the next moment the smile on Vanessa's face vanished."That arrogant bastard." Fiona cursed as annoyance danced in her tone and Vanessa shook her head while her lips curled upwards ever so slightly, "let it be. I don't want people to think as if you're nuts with how you're looking right now.""Fuck you! I'm seriously angry at that asshole!" Fiona said while taking a heavy breath and added, "Why did he have to be so complacent?
Wooing His Billioanire Ex-Wife Chapter 61 Vanessa's car is broken, Austin!
Fiona let out a curse as the last ounce of patience left in her died when the car stopped in the middle of the road, "No fucking way! Why on earth did you have to choose to leave me this late at night?"Vanessa raised her brows and scoffed at Fiona's dramatic gesture. She shook her head, undid her seatbelt, and muttered, "let's go out of the car and take a look."With that said, Vanessa stepped outside and opened the front of the car to find out what was wrong.However, even though Vanessa was lacking knowledge regarding cars, she understood the car needed some urgent repair to get it going.Fiona slowly stood beside Vanessa and mumbled in annoyance, "did it break down for real?" "Vanessa cocked her head and met Fiona's eyes, "Exactly on point. Your prediction had come true."Fiona let out a sigh and pursed her lips together in worry, "what are we going to do now?""You must be kidding me, Fiona. What are we going to do? Is that what you're asking when it's so obvious we need help to
Wooing His Billioanire Ex-Wife Chapter 60 Did she just refer to him as a dog?
As soon as Fiona said that, Vanessa tilted her head and scoffed while her eyes were focused on Fiona, "I know I'm awesome, but I don't think it makes me compatible with Richard."Fiona couldn't suppress the smile that was threatening to burst from her lips and mumbled with a glint in her eyes, the tease in her tone was clearly visible, "honestly, I thought you both would make a nice match when I saw you both dancing so smoothly earlier."When Vanessa was convinced that Richard was no longer following her, she sighed with relief and moved forward to get a drink.But soon after hearing Fiona's remark, she added, "oh no, I'm not aware of the fact that your vision was significantly compromised these days."Fiona waved her hands and scoffed, "Jeez! My eyesight was alright. However, I must say that Richard is strongly proactive when it comes to you. Isn't he?"Vanessa wasn't concerned about it and carried on with socializing after talking for a bit. Fiona on the other side was bored to deat

"Austin, Do you really want to dance?" David repeated his words as he didn't get any reply from Austin.Although Austin was calm, seeing Vanessa walk with Richard so comfortably, his face turned livid while the coldness in his aura turned so chilling.But Vanessa seemed to be not aware of Austin's heated gaze as she immersed herself in the dance.Richard kept his one hand on her tiny waist, while his other hand held her palm ever so gently, but the grip was firm, keeping her in his hold.While she held his shoulder and kept moving with the beat with ease.As the music turned to high beats, their moves turned more romantic, their steps were more in sync, and the couple looked so pleasing to the eyes.Their genes were certainly top notch was an added advantage.As time passed by, almost all the people's eyes settled on the dancing couple as the atmosphere suddenly turned steamy with Richard twirling her and they ended up coming so close.They were so close that they could feel each othe
Wooing His Billioanire Ex-Wife Chapter 58 May I have a dance with you, Miss Grant?
Hearing Vanessa's words, Fiona raised her head and stared at Vanessa's solemn expression and understood that she was damn serious.And a sigh escaped her lips as the realization sunk in."Alright then. If that was what you wants." Fiona stated cooly while she nodded her head and she firmly decided to give up mentioning Richard again.Anyhow, Richard was a well known playboy. Getting acquainted with him would only bring Vanessa trouble, and he was barely a romantic prospect, with not much gain or loss!But apparently, Richard didn't think like that it seems.Because his wooing methods improved as days passed, and he was getting bold day by day.His ways were extremely flashy, catching all the unwanted attention. His artificial flowers would perfectly sit on her table right on time, not a minute prior or ahead.He took great lengths in sending flowers which were rare species yet they were so good to the eye.As if that wasn't enough, he was literally bombarding his Feeds with posts, cre

Hearing Silas' words, Vanessa didn't retort them and gave a faint smile as she was well aware of what she was doing and where she was heading.However, she didn't act too arrogantly and exclaimed, "I still need your guidance, Mr. Dixon. After all, I'm still not very experienced!"As soon as Vanessa said that, Silas's lips tugged upwards in a pleasing curl as he was quite content with the way she purposely humbled herself in front of him.And he immediately waved his hands while a light chuckle escaped his lips, "You're very formal, Miss Grant." With a slight pause, he added while glancing at Vanessa, "Let us learn from one another and collaborate to propel Grant Corporation to new heights."Vanessa gave a firm nod, and stated politely, "I agree with you, Mr. Dixon."Soon after Vanessa stepped out of his office, Vanessa's smile faded to oblivion and she muttered coldly under her breath, "such an old fox!"After she was done dealing with Silas, she had become super busy since it was Mon

Vanessa eyed the document lying on her desk for a while and abruptly marched out of her cabin with the file in her hands, leaving Caroline stunned.However, Vanessa went by in a flash and a Caroline shook her head in disbelief.The sound of high heels clanking on the floor is the only thing that could be heard in the empty corridors while she walked forward to Silas Dixon's office.Her face was cold with no trace of warmth, and the determination in her amber orbs was clearly visible.With her head held high, and shoulders squared, every step she took exuded the confidence deeply ingrained in her bones.Eyeing her, Silas's assistant, who was on the side, remained dumbfounded for a while, and queried, "Miss Grant, are you going to meet Mr. Dixon?"Hearing his words, Vanessa gave a faint 'yes' and knocked on the door of Silas's office, while the assistant squinted his eyes baffled.In the next second, a quick 'come in' came from the inside, and Vanessa immediately pushed the door open an
