All Chapters of Billionaire’s Ex-wife Is Over Him: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Meanwhile, Amanda has already hashed down down her indignation. This is her first time seeing Riley alone since she moved out of his mansion.Amanda finds out that it’s not as hard as she imagined to let go of her love and affection for Riley. In fact, every day of their marriage has slowly chipped away at her love. Faye Aiken’s presence only helps her to part ways from Riley. Amanda thinks she is beyond stupid. She has just imagined an entire relationship with someone that doesn’t exist. She used to put a spin on Riley, hoping that he’ll show concern for her one day. But in truth, he's not that kind of person at all.Back at her desk, Amanda is surprised to find it covered in small gifts. Her colleagues are excited to see her back and keep checking on her well-being. Even though Amanda has always been willing to lend a hand, no one here takes her kindness for granted.Honestly, she likes this job. If it weren&rs

Riley returns home, only to find the house completely empty, again.A heavy feeling of suffocation presses down on him. He clutches at his chest, feeling his shirt twist under his fingers. Then he rushes from room to room, desperately searching for any sign that Amanda has come back.But Amanda, he knows, always tidies up meticulously, never leaving anything out of place. It’s a habit she keeps, probably to match his own preference for a spotless home. Now, though, that very habit backfires. He can’t even tell if Amanda’s been here or not, because the house looks exactly as she would leave it—flawless and untouched.Riley finally stops, his footsteps echoing in the stillness. He pulls out his phone, scrolling through his unread messages. When he finds nothing, he checks his work phone too. But there’s nothing there either. Not a single message from Amanda.No, he tells himself, that can’t be. He reassures h

But inside the car, the atmosphere isn’t what her coworkers might imagine. It’s not filled with laughter or easy conversation. Amanda gazes out the window, watching the rain streak across the glass. She basks in the first quiet moment of peace since leaving her job. Shawn, for his part, drives silently, making no effort to start a conversation.“Are you going tomorrow?” Shawn suddenly breaks the silence.“What?” Amanda startles, pulled from her wandering thoughts. Her mind had drifted far away, somewhere in the open fields of her imagination.“Riley should’ve texted you. We’ve got a gathering tomorrow—Riley, Rex, Faye, and me. Riley said he’d bring you along. Have you decided? Are you going?”Amanda remembers the text. Riley had sent it earlier that day, in his usual curt tone. He mentioned taking her to meet his friends, but gave no specifics&md

“You look like hell, man. What happened to you?” Rex asks, frowning.Today is supposed to be the day Riley finally introduces Amanda to his friends as his wife. But Riley shows up alone, his demeanor worse than Rex has ever seen.Riley had spent the entire night outside Amanda’s apartment. He only left in the morning, driving straight to the villa for a quick wash and a couple of hours of restless sleep before heading to meet his friends.His mood is abysmal. Even Shawn and Faye notice something is off, though Shawn, as usual, doesn’t pry. Faye, on the other hand, seems uneasy, shrinking back slightly at Riley’s dark aura. That leaves Rex to break the suffocating silence.“Come on. Don’t be like this. It’s been forever since Faye and Shawn came back. Cheer up, mate.”Riley glances up briefly, his tired eyes meeting Shawn’s and Faye’s, but he doesn’t sa

Riley’s gaze drifts across the living room, lingering on the leftover decorations Lily had put up. He doesn’t say a word.“So, Riley,” Shawn begins, leaning back against the counter. “Let’s talk about Amanda. Now that we all know she’s your wife, what’s going on? I need you to tell us the whole thing. If you don’t, we can’t help. Or, if you’d prefer not to talk to us, I can call Mrs. Hopkins, your therapist.”Riley stays silent. This is hard for him—they all know that. His childhood had left scars that made it almost impossible to open up, even more so when it came to personal shame.“Anyway,” Shawn continues, “Rex has told you countless times that he thinks you should get a divorce. I’ll be honest—I think so too.”Riley’s head snaps up, his displeasure obvious. His glare says he’s one word away from punch
