All Chapters of The Billionaire Ex-Wife’s Return : Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

123Alora's POV I paced around the living room,. The sound of my footsteps slapping against the wooden floors bounced around the walls, and while I would have usually found that annoying, I couldn't exactly bring myself to care. I had bigger things to worry about. My heart dropped to my feet, and I fought the urge to curse out loud. It had been happening more frequently than I'd liked and I couldn't shake off the feeling that it was a sign that something bad was happening. Not me though.Fredrick. A shiver raced down my spine, and I crossed my hands around myself. I was nervous, anxious, and whatever word that could be used to describe how I was feeling, and I didn't like it. I wanted to calm down, to stop feeling like this, but how the hell was I going to do that when Fredrick was still unconscious? He'd been unresponsive since last night, and I would be lying if I said I wasn't worried. When I'd followed him yesterday, I'd kept an open mind, but never in a million years d

125Fredrick’s POV A groan slid past my lips as I finally stirred awake. My limbs hurt, and I could already feel a burning coming up at both sides, and I wanted nothing more than to curse mother nature. My head was on fire, and if I didn't know myself better, I would have said a group of monkeys had snuck into my brain, and started a band in there. It was banging so hard my ears were ringing. In fact, when I'd first opened my eyes, my vision was hazy, and I was left with just one minute to figure out if I was blind or not. Even after sleeping for hours, it did nothing to make me feel better and I hated it. But did you really sleep though? A voice whispered in my mind. I wouldn't say he was wrong. I hadn't been able to sleep a wink since the doctor did whatever he did to bring me around again. I didn't mean to sound ungrateful, but a small part of me really wished he didn't do all that he had done. He could have delayed a little longer, or given me an extremely high dosage. A

127Alora's POV Fredrick going in and coming out again wasn't the plot twist I saw coming, at all. When he'd turned his back to me, I really thought it was over, and I'd decided that if he didn't come back, I would let him be, before finding a way to salvage the situation. I had no idea how I would have done it, but best believe I was more than grateful that he'd decided to come around. We sat in silence for what seemed like the longest time. If I was in any way correct, it had been approximately thirty minutes since he sat down, since he last spoke. Now, thirty minutes later, he still hadn't said a thing. I was anxious. It was eating me up and it made me wonder how he would be feeling inside. I wasn't the one about to explain something that was probably traumatic, and here I was panicking like I'd shot someone. I sucked in a deep breath, before letting it out again. From the corner of my eyes, I watched Fredrick sitting to the side, and my heart broke into a million pieces.

129Fredrick's POV I needed a drink, and it wasn't even noon yet. My head was a mess, and it didn't help that my phone had been blaring up since I peeled my eyes open this morning. I honestly thought it was good news. All thanks to the stunt Cynthia and I had pulled the other day, it was only normal that we anticipated a little bit of good newsNo, scratch that, a whole lot of good news. They'd started rolling in around six am, with a lot of potential investors rooting for us s d trying to get on our side once the contract was handed over to us. It was a certainty at this point because only Alora and I were the strongest contesters, but now that she was out of the picture, it automatically meant I was getting it. All I needed to do was be patient, while the council decided. Like that wasn't going to help me in any way. It paid to have one of the council members on your side, and to make his decision making a bit easier, I'd launched a new team to go online and create awarenes

131Alora's POV I didn't leave that spot till I was sure Eliaz and his little side piece, had completely checked out of their room . Everything the guard had said was true and I didn't just confirm from him alone. In order not to look suspicious,I roamed the hotel group ds for a bit, making sure to not bump into Eliaz or his woman.The main reason I'd done that, was to gather more information and evidence. It was amazing how much information you could get just by tipping people. yes, my pocket had run slightly dry today, but I like to think it was worth it. I wanted for a full fledged ten minutes before driving out of the hotel. It was way past office hours, and if the many texts and calls that had been ringing up my phone meant anything, it was the fact that Fredrick was worriedDon't worry, Fredrick. I muttered to myself. I'm coming. Well sort this out. I promise. Thankfully, I got home in record time, but I did meet Fredrick standing at the entrance of our house. “Alora.”
