David grabbed the cigarette from the pack in Austin's hands and took a puff with his eyes lowered as if he was in deep thoughts.

The image of Vanessa and the way she did things weren't getting out of his head, and he knew in his heart that he had no better impression of Vanessa because she definitely had become more ruthless these days.

Although she wasn't solely responsible for her actions, her negative traits had definitely outshined her positive attributes, because he saw how cold and merciless she was when she did something.

However, the night when she became a drumming diva in the club was a nice memory he would cherish. Because on that day, she had the vitality in her eyes and magic in her hands that had taken him to a musical trance and gave peace to his troubled mind.

With that, David exhaled the smoke and mumbled, "anyhow I can see very clearly that Vanessa was indeed changed a lot after she left you. Previously when you both were still a married couple, she was so gentle and

    Hearing David's exaggerated words, she remained silent with a scowl on her face and tilted her head to the side with lifted eyebrows.But David didn't get her intention from her expression it seems, and he tried to occupy the seat beside her when Vanessa abruptly dragged the chair away, startling him while Fiona let out a sneaky chuckle and cussed in her heart, "serves correct!"Although disappointed that he didn't get the chance to settle in the chair, he managed to ask with a smile still plastered on his face, "since we knew each other. Why not share a table? Sounds fun, isn't it?"David was trying to interact with Vanessa from the day he saw her performance as a drummer as he was pretty much excited to know about their 'Fiery Ice' band, which had a deep impact on his mind and heart.However, Vanessa didn't respond to him and instead, she dropped the fork in her hands and wiped her mouth clean with the tissues displaying her charming grace, while David stared at her with a probing g

    David just stared at Vanessa and stood to the side, a few inches away while musing, "can't she understand that I'm being the big man here and trying to help her?""But then she treated me like that? Like my offer meant nothing to her in a situation like this? When she was surrounded by hooligans at night with barely any people passing by?" David couldn't help but scoff at Vanessa and believed she was definitely hot headed for not knowing what was good for her in the least.However, was David wrong?But somehow, he didn't want to leave yet and just wanted to see what Vanessa can do to save herself from the burly men around her. But to be honest, he couldn't leave the scene even if he wanted to because that wasn't present in his nature to act like he saw nothing, when clearly what Vanessa was about to face. And hence, he decided to jump in if the situation escalates any further, even though Vanessa didn't plead with him!"Woah, what a good man I'm!" He exclaimed at himself while a smirk

    The morning sun hit Vanessa's squished cheeks making her groan and she curled up into the quilt further to hide from the bright light, but the alarm next to her didn't let her sleep anymore as the loud sound banged in the room, and she rubbed her eyes with a huff, annoyed that she couldn't sleep more even on a Sunday.However, she calmed herself in a matter of seconds and grabbed her mobile from the nightstand, and dialed Fiona when she remembered the reason for sacrificing her beauty sleep, that is to get a car for herself, as going on cabs was too troublesome these days.Moreover, she encountered bad incidents when she didn't have her own mode of transport and decided to own a new car.As she lazily folded her legs and put a pillow on her lap, Fiona's sleepy voice came from the other end of the phone, "yes?""Just woke up?" Vanessa queried when Fiona hummed as she was still battling with her sleep when Vanessa chuckled, "Come to my house in an hour and we can go to the car showroom.

  • Wooing His Billioanire Ex-Wife   Chapter 46 Why would I buy such a cheap car?

    Fiona eyed Vanessa from the corner of her eyes and tilted her head to see the car. Although she wasn't an expert in cars, she wasn't a fool to not know which cars were luxurious and which were not.Moreover, the car she drives were mostly either a Lamborghini or a Ferrari, which were given by her father. And apart from them, she can be considered a complete novice when it came to cars from Audi and BMW. However she wasn't totally against them, but just felt they were really too modest for Vanessa.Anyhow she didn't have a choice except to nod her head because Vanessa already stated the purpose behind this car, and as a manager, it wouldn't be too good if she drove a flashy Porsche and Maserati.When the employee heard the choice of her car, she was pleased and was about to stride off to finalize the bill but added politely, "I would get you the payment details real quick, ladies. Please wait here for a few minutes."Vanessa just gave a nod while her face was displaying nothing but cal

    As Vanessa was walking out of the showroom with a smirk on her face, Fiona couldn't keep her calm and exclaimed with a smile dancing on her lips, "wow, Vanessa. You totally nailed in there."Knowing how sharp Vanessa is, Fiona gave a thumbs up and stated, "those two idiots were out like a light bulb in your hands.""Indeed, they were too easy to handle." Vanessa muttered with a light chuckle, and Vanessa added while nodding, "Ahh, It was way too pleasant to watch them choke on their own words! You should have seen their expressions back there, it was as if they were eating shit, and it was so satisfying and fun to my eyes."And Vanessa let out a giggle when Fiona murmured with a scowl, "well, they deserved it. The cost for having the audacity to look down on you is two million dollars! However, the two million dollars price was cheap for what they intended to do to you if you asked me."Hearing her words, Vanessa waved her hands as she decided to let them go easily this time, but if t

    As soon as Jasper's words rang in her ears, she tilted her head and gazed at him, only to see that he was already staring at her.And she gulped the water in her mouth before she muttered, "Yes, I'm."Well, isn't money almost ruling every damn thing? So, who wouldn't like to earn money? Moreover, it was indeed fun for her to run the company.When Vanessa admitted without much of an emotion on her face, Jasper was a little taken aback for a split second and his lips eventually tugged upwards into a smile, but that didn't quite reach his eyes as he added, "wow. That was nice!"Eyeing him, Vanessa didn't know what was amiss, but she felt that something was different with the way he was behaving and a frown settled on her face while she queried, "is that so?"Jasper hummed but didn't say anything else when she couldn't help but inquire a little probingly, "you look disturbed?"Hearing her words, he stiffened and shook his head with a slight smile dancing on his face, "me? Nope. I was just

    Aurora Flores was certainly a remarkable person, it had to be declared. In New York City, the King Club and Dream Night Club, one in the East and the other in the West, were the two most well-known bars. The two bars weren't in direct conflict with one another. However, Aurora's bar was tactically established in a location across from King Club, which was outstanding.Although ONE Club was the center of attention in the region, it was formerly a western restaurant. And there was no doubt that the rent was high and there was a lot of foot traffic as it had been operating for four years.But, the contract's term was coming to an end this year, and the rent had skyrocketed once again. Aurora immediately volunteered to take over when she learned that the boss had opted not to extend their contract.Nonetheless, Aurora didn't have the guts to jump in blindly and sign the paperwork accepting the lease of the Club for 20 million dollars for a further four years or the annual rent of 5 millio

    Hearing Fiona's words, Aurora's glance involuntarily settled on Vanessa who was checking instruments on the stage, and the corner of her lips tugged upwards and she said with a sly wink, "come on, eyeing her curvy figure and charming face, who wouldn't want her? If Vanessa wanted to give it a try, then I would be more than pleased to comply with her wishes."As soon as words escaped Aurora's mouth, Fiona was at a loss while her jaw dropped and she yelled in the next minute, "Fuck you! She would notice me if she suddenly took an interest in girls and not you!"And their crazy banter continued while they chuckled holding their stomachs in the end and Aurora waved her hand signaling no more. Moreover, she couldn't possibly sit with Fiona and chit chat lazily while her club was filling in with people, as they were her source of living!With that, she added, "alright, alright. She's only yours! I give up. Now grab your bass guitar and go to the stage."As Aurora finished her words, Fiona's

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?

    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

    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

    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
