All Chapters of THE BILLIONAIRES LOST LOVE: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Isabelle woke up early in the morning, realising she had just spent the night on the couch. She sat up and stretched her neck while trying to figure out why she had just spent her night in the uncomfortable couch instead of her bed. She picked her phone up to check what time it was when she realised that she had been calling her husband Lucas before she fell asleep. "He hasn't called me back?" She said to herself while she ran her fingers through her curly hair as she always did since she was a little girl. "Where could you be Lucas?" In all the thirteen years they had been together, Lucas had never spent the night away from home without informing Isabelle about where he would be, this was new. Isabelle was worried that something could have happened to him. Something terrible. She had called his office the previous night but was informed that he had just left the building at the time, so she waited a few hours before calling his driver who had informed her that Lucas had insiste

Isabelle sat at the window of her late mother's little apartment every morning and every night since she had moved in. She had not stepped out of the apartment for two weeks since she walked in either. She had accepted that her marriage was over, but it felt so wrong. She cried at the thought of every promise that Lucas had made to her. At the thought of his vows to her on their wedding day, "I choose you today and always. I promise to love you fiercely and till eternity. I promise that in me, you have a friend, a family, and a home. I vow to always be there with you and for you till we are both frail and grey." How could he say all that and mean none of it? How could he promise me forever and give up in only thirteen years. how could he choose to break everything we've built instead of fixing it? fixing us? Isabelle cried her eyes out because she knew that was all she could do, and that was the only thing that made her heart hurt a little less. Her phone vibrated, causing

Isabelle walked out of the conference room without a word and didn't look back. She walked straight out of the building and headed to her car. Her tears rolled down her cheecks as soon as she opened her car door as if that was their cue. she cried so hard she felt out of breath and rolled down her windows. She lifted her head up from her palms to wipe her tears when she spotted Lucas and his musketeers leaving the office building. Lucas walked hand in hand with the unknown lady while his mom Lucy walked ahead of them. Isabelle's heart dropped because somehow she suddenly knew who exactly the unknown lady was and why she had just attended her divorce meeting. 'He has already moved on? How could he? Did I really mean nothing to him? Did he love me? Ever? Is she the reason for our divorce?" Isabelle had so many questions, but she knew there was no one to answer any of them. Isabelle spent an hour more crying and trying to fix herself up before she finally found the strengt

'I love you forever,' Lucas said as he held Isabelle against his body firmly. He kissed her forehead. 'I love you forever,' Isabelle repeated before the cuddled up and fell asleep in each other's arms. Isabelle woke up and realised she had just spent the night on her apartment floor, her body in pain and her head spinning from all the wine she drunk. She got up from the floor and sat on her couch. The 3 empty bottles of wine stared back at her. She buried her face into her palms and groaned. She realised she wasn't with Lucas in their bed. She had been dreaming but was surprised by how real it felt. 'I felt him, his touch. it was so real.' Isabelle had never imagined her life without Lucas, but now she had to live it. It felt strange, but there was nothing she could do, and she knew it. Isabelle needed some sort of escape from the most dreadful weeks she had. She knew that drinking to dissolve or drown her sorrows was not only pointless, It made her feel alright and happy wh

'Hi Isabelle, I hope you are well. I couldn't believe it when your profile was suggested to me as a potential friend based on the school we both attended. I haven't heard from you in a while and wonder if you are alright. I would like for us to meet and catch up, only if you don't mind. Please contact me as soon as you can and take care.' The message ended with her name and contact details. Isabelle couldn't believe her eyes. She found a0 bench and sat down before reading the message a couple more times. She knew who had sent it from the name displayed on the profile, Lisa Michelle Ross. Lisa and Isabelle were long-time friends. They lived in the same neighbourhood, went to the same school, and literally did everything together. Lisa was Isabelle's maid of honour on her wedding day. She was her best friend. But a few years into her marriage, Isabelle had been forced to cut all contact with everyone she knew. Her friends and her family. Isabelle put her phone back
