All Chapters of After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Rachel and Martha sat opposite each other in the open restaurants without saying anything. Rachel heart couldn't stop beating as she thought of the many things her mother would want to talk to her about. Everything leading back to Lana. She was very sure that Lana had a hand in this meeting, and what her mother was about to say would prove it. "Mother... How... How have you been?" Rachel asked hesitatingly, before she picked up her coffee sipping it slowly, but shakily. Martha just stared at her without movements, it scared Rachel even more not knowing what was going on in her mother's head. " Mum... Please say something". She pleaded keeping down her coffee cup. " What do you expect me to say? " Martha finally spoke, her tone and attitude cold. Rachel was taken aback by her mother's cold voice but didn't show it." Why are you speaking to me like that... If anything I'm the one who was wronged... "" You... Wronged? " Martha laughed mockingly, picking you her coffee and sippin

Ethan's POVI came home from work earlier that usual today. My mind wouldn't let me be at peace at work knowing that Rachel went to met her mother today. I wanted to call her to ask how it went, but decided to just come back home and see how she was doing for myself.I saw John pacing around the car he drove out in the morning with worry written all over his face. " What happened to her?" I immediately asked.Few minutes before I arrived, I had called him to ask how the outing with Rachel went, and his tone didn't sound good. " Boss, she... Ms Rachel... " He stammered.Fear began growing in my heart. My patience ran thin. " Tell me what happened, godammit! " I cursed impatiently. Could it be that she ran away again? " Ms Rachel is inside the house... But she left her mother's with tears". He explained slowly. Thank God she's home... But what could they have possibly done to her again to make her cry?I gave John a nod before walking into the house, heading straight to Rachel's

Rachel's POVThe confusion on Ethan's face increased significantly. " Explain " He murmured staring back at me. I let out a huge sigh before bending down in front of him. " Since you meant what you said the last time, I want us to act on it "I motioned with my fingers for him to bring his ears closer. He brought down his face, and my mouth was just beside his ears. " Let's pretend to be together" I whispered to him ever so slowly in fear what he might just snap or immediately refuse. I took few steps back to see the expression on his face. It wasn't disgust, that's a good thing. In fact it was unreadable. " So... " I stressed awkwardly staring at his face. " How is that going to get back at Lana? "He didn't object... That's a good thing. I walked back to my bed and sat on it, looking down on my hands. " You're no longer the Ethan we all knew before... You're not rich, to points I can't even phantom, and handsome..." I paused to look at Ethan after I said handsome. Just li

Rachel's POV " We just want all our actors to get acquainted with each other since the acting of the movie is about to begin... " Director George Stone went on and on talking about the does and don't in acting the film, and sincerely it was getting really boring. The only reason I wasn't fast asleep already was because Marina was seated beside me and Lana had been glaring daggers at me since the moment I walked into the meeting room.If felt so refreshing to see that she was mad at me. She had thought that after whatever mum said to me I would quit the show... Well she thought wrong. If anything if only made me want to expose her even more. A the main actors of the film were present. That was how I got to know Raine... The guy I met few days ago, was the male lead and the stupid husband that slept with another girl apart from his wife. And there was this little kid there too, he was sitting beside Raine, Probably the little kid Joyce gives birth too. Though he looked to be around

Rachel's POVAfter the long plane ride... Which I mostly slept through, this was seriously the first plane ride I have ever been on that I didn't puke at least twice. Raine was a big help. The entertainment company sponsoring the movie had already reserved a room for each and every one of the actors, but mine happens to be with Marina. How did that happen... Well, only the first four main leads were lucky enough to have a room to themselves, the rest of us had to manage like three or four in the same room because of how much people that were there. Each and everyone of us brought a make-up artist and a fashion designer, well apart from Olivia who brought two of both and Lana who brought to make up artist, but we had to be the one to suffer it. I was to stay in a room with two on the the actress in the show when suddenly Marina volunteered for me to stay in her room.It was a relief to me... Buy it only made Lana glare at me even more. She had been doing that since on the plane, a
