All Chapters of The Billionaire Ex-Wife Returns: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Three days later.Vanessa had been discharged from the hospital and had been keeping an eye on Beatriz's movements. Although she hadn't found anything suspicious, she never intended to let the matter of the accident go so easily.After all, it had almost harmed her daughter, and she couldn’t let it slide.After days of investigation, her assistant had managed to contact a recently resigned accountant from Ness Corp and confirmed that the money was specially approved by Beatriz.“It’s definitely her. Looks like I’ll need to use some tactics,” Vanessa said, a cold smile curling at the corners of her mouth, showing no sign of backing down.After giving her assistant a few instructions and finalizing the day's workflow, she changed into a powerful outfit from the latest season.“Today I have personal matters to attend to and will not accept any work a

It was only around 3 PM, and Vanessa had already briefed her assistant before leaving work. She ran into Mariah, who had just seen off a client. “President, are you planning to work yourself to death, trying to stick it out until the very end?” Seeing her joke about herself, Vanessa pretended to be angry. “If you keep talking nonsense, I’ll seal your lips!” “Alright, alright, no more jokes. Where are you off to?” Mariah offered a few options. “Are you going to meet a client or the president of the K Group?” Vanessa rolled her eyes and explained, “Didn’t you say I should pay more attention to my daughter? I’m picking her up from school and taking her out to eat.” “Oh, how rare! President Saxon remembers she has a daughter.” “This is the company; don’t tarnish my reputation.” After some playful banter, Mariah finally laughed and said, looking at the time, “You should hurry; otherwise, you’ll be late.” Realizing the time, Vanessa immediately head

After a few pleasantries, the renowned host was invited to manage the live program and proceedings. Following performances by several popular singers and idols, it was time for Luca to take the stage for his speech, after which the ball would commence.Vanessa felt a bit uncomfortable; ever since the misunderstandings arose, no one had cast her a friendly glance. The lecherous men around her looked at her with clear intentions.The ball began.Several gentlemen approached her to invite her to dance, but she turned them all down.The reason was simple: their gazes were somewhat frivolous, and if she agreed, it might be misinterpreted as consenting to some sort of deal or arrangement.She firmly declined and remained at ease.Cassandra, who had also rejected many invitations, approached Vanessa, looking rather tired.“None of

Everything had gone so smoothly, and it all surprised her, as if someone else were collaborating with her.From every aspect, she had benefited.Once back at the company, she immediately shared the good news with Mariah.Upon learning that all her efforts had not been in vain, Mariah finally relaxed and slumped onto the sofa in the president's office, looking utterly drained and lifeless.“President, my dear president, since the project has been approved, can you let me off for two days so I can rest?”Vanessa nodded with a smile, but before Mariah could celebrate, she added, “Just wait a moment. As long as the cooperation contract is signed, you can take three days off right away. How about that?”Mariah, feeling relieved and with no complaints, jumped up excitedly and extended her pinky to make a pact, saying, “No problem!”“How childish! Get back to work; slacking off will cost you a day off,” Vanessa teased.At her words, M

Vanessa was very alert; after all, the other party was Luca, and she wouldn’t let her guard down easily.“Go ahead, what do you want?” Luca suddenly let out a cold laugh, as if surprised. “Anything?” Hearing this, she frowned slightly and hesitated before saying, “Except for my daughter.” “Ha ha ha, what do I want with your daughter? Could it be...?” He deliberately left her in suspense.Vanessa fell for it, nervously asking, “Could it be what?” He shouldn’t know that Isla was her daughter... He shouldn’t know... “Is your daughter’s father me?” He had said this deliberately to probe her.The result nearly scared Vanessa into a trap; fortunately, she reacted quickly, warning him in anger, “If you joke like this again, then our cooperation can end here.” Luca hadn’t expected her to take his joke seriously. “It was just a joke, and you are actually a
