The Billionaire Ex-Wife’s Return /Twinkle
Fredrick's POV It stung, and I wasn't even going to try to deny it. The meal sitting in front of me had lost its taste a long time ago, but I still forced myself to swallow it, spoonful after spoonful. Why? Because it was Alora's favourite and I didn't want anything that was going to sour her mood. As she slowly picked at the plate in front of her, I couldn't help but feel like her mood had already been ruined, and by no one else asides me. Shit. I was a fool, and I'd only confirmed it this evening.Even a toddler would be able to see how happy I was to see alora on stage a couple of hours ago. She looked regal, right from the moment she got into her designated seat, the moment she outbid Eliaz and the moment she was called to receive the contract. Everything had been planned down to the last detail. My highlight of the night had to be the shocked look on Eliaz's face when Alora was announced the winner. Even though it didn't last long and was replaced by a faint sense of

Eliaz’s POV A yawn bubbled at the back of my throat, but I struggled to keep it in. It was one thing to present, or pretend to be present, and it was another thing to fail while totally at it. While pretending was hard and absolutely not worth it, I would always pick that over being called out for what someone else termed inefficiency. “Mr Deutchmond?” Someone's gruff voice called out to me. I blinked back till all I could see again was my screen. “Is anything the problem?” “Not at all.” I shook my head, before adjusting my tie. “My apologies, I zoned out a bit. Please continue.” “I'm not sure that's the right thing to do.” I bit back a groan. My eyes flickered shut before popping open again, and just as I feared, Mr Dumont’s angry face was staring at me. “Are you even interested in this collaboration?” No. I wanted to let out, but for the sake of my company and my sanity, I kept mute. “Yes Mr Dumont.” I nodded.. “I'm more than interested in partnering with you.”While th

013 Eliaz's POV I let out a breath I had no idea I was holding when I stepped into the living room. I counted to ten, then twenty and thirty, and when the stillness I had walked into still remained, I let out another sigh of relief. Heaven knows I'd had a really long day at the office today. As promised, I had hopped on another call with Mr Dumont again, and it didn't go as planned. He was beyond furious. I didn't know the man on a personal level, but I think it was safe to say that if he could, he would stripped me of the little dignity I had left and made me the laughing stick of the business world. The first hour of the call was filled with constant pleas from me, just to get another chance. Before that, I'd contacted a couple of other investors, but they weren't really interested. A whole lot of them were polite by telling me they would get in touch, while the others simply didn't bother to pick up. Yes, it was that bad. I shook off the events of the day before head

014Eliaz's POV This couldn't be happening. This couldn't be happening at all. I wasn't an avid believer of bad luck, I thought of it as complete bullshit. If you wanted something, all you had to do was work towards it, and it would all work out. But just because a certain human might have elapsed in his calculations or planning , which led to his failure or things not working out, he decided to term it bad luck, or worse still karma. That wasn't even the worst part. Not only did he make himself believe that, somehow, he was able to spread the concept to the rest of the world. I didn't believe in bad luck, so why were so many bad things happening to me all at once? First it was the contract, then Mr Dumont, and now this? I scrubbed my face with my hands, hoping that things would go back to normal again, and by normal, I meant, Mr Dumont would have considered me, even if it was only part time. But even after scrubbing for a total of ten minutes, nothing changed and in that mom

015 Alora's POV “Breaking news.” The newscaster’s voice reached my ears the moment I tuned into the news channel. Even though she tries to maintain a neutral face as she stared at the screen, I could easily tell the emotions that ran through her mind. She was both scared and excited. Scared to ruin the Deutchmond’s reputation even more and super excited for the hot piece of information she had in her grip.“The Deutchmond's have been under thick surveillance in the past couple of years and just while they were on the verge of fixing their barely existent reputation, everything fell through.” She allowed a couple of seconds to pass before she continued. “Just recently, news articles have began to come up, highlighting the fact Deutchmond Corporation has record a downward tank in their investments. Insiders tell us that about fifty percent worth of the company's stocks and shares have diminished, all thanks to their investors pulling out suddenly.”“Is that what I think it is?”

016Eliaz's POV I couldn't believe my ears, not my life either. I'd always watched movies and read books that described the moment in someone's life where their world came crashing down. I couldn't exactly say I'd experienced it before, except now. I just did, and it wasn't an experience I would recommend to someone else. I felt every bit of oxygen seep out of every pore in my body. I lost my balance tempo, but at the same time I didn't see myself tumbling to the ground. Even if it did happen, I would prefer I was standing next to one of the windows on the second floor. That way, my death would be certain the moment I hit rock bottom. No way. There was no way this could be possible. Alora's words echoed loudly in my head with each passing second. I tried my level best to push her words aside, but no matter how hard I pushed, they came back with more force. ‘Come on, Eliaz. Think. Did you ever meet them? Ever hop on a call with them? Ever try to figure out their real identi

017Eliaz's POV I meant what I said the other day, it wasn't just an empty promise I'd made in anger. I was going to make sure she paid for it, and in the hardest way possible too. I mused, pushing away the thought temporarily. Alora and I grew up together, or more accurately put, we shared a good number of years together before we eventually got married. I had chosen to get married to her for two obvious reasons, my revenge and no matter how hard to prove it wasn't true, she had a big heart, one that was easy to manipulate and break into a million pieces. How then, did that same heart come up with a plan that was just as evil and as it was brilliant? I would be lying to myself if I said I hadn't spent all night thinking about it. I knew time changed people, but five years wasn't a lot of time to do that much damage to her right?The alora I had spoken to on the phone was different from the one I knew five years ago. Hell, she was different from the regal lady thanking the ent

018Alora's POV I sniffed in the fresh morning air, and it just had to be one of the best decisions I'd actually made all morning. I was giddy, so giddy you could even see it in my steps. “Someone's happy this morning.” Fredrick had chipped in the moment he walked in on me dancing all alone in my room. “Care to share the reason why?” Yes, we were married, but we both stayed in different rooms, just how I wanted it. When we'd moved back to New York, Fredrick had proposed that we started sharing a bedroom, but I turned him down. Whether or not, I'd done it politely, I wasn't sure. All I knew was, at some point, we'd come to a conclusion that we had some kind of access to each other's rooms. While Fredrick was always in my room and I didn't mind, I wasn't sure I went into his space too often.“I have no idea.” I smiled in response. “Well, then.” Fredrick grinned, before waking further into the room. “This is where I come in.” My breath hitched in my throat as he walked towards

019Alora's POV I had definitely offended the universe at one point in my life, I was just beginning to see the consequences now. Shit. I should have known Eliaz's presence here would ruin things, but why was he here in the first place? He had bid for the contract and lost, so what the hell was he doing here? I gulped, hoping that my unease wasn't showing through my calm facade. The entire conference room could be likened to a graveyard, with everyone's eyes daring someone else in the crowd to speak. But no one did. No one could.“Mr Eliaz.” Donald cleared his throat. The atmosphere was still tense with anticipation, but it was better than radio silence. “That's quite an objection. Can we know why?”“Isn't it obvious?” Eliaz snarled. “The reasons are glaring at this point.”“Please list those reasons.” Donald's patience had to be studied at this point. “And why now? Why are you bringing up your displeasure at this gathering?”“The auction couldn't have been the best place to e

020Alora's POV Even after everyone in the conference room had cleared, I still remained, my body glued to the swivel chair I had been offered. When I had first gotten into it, nothing could hear how soft and lush it was, but now, it was the complete opposite. Invisible pins and needles pricked into my back at every interval, but I couldn't bring myself to move. Whether it had to do with shock or disbelief, I wasn't exactly sure, but I just knew Eliaz was the cause. Eliaz. I should have known he wouldn't take my surprise lightly. I didn't remember him being this vindictive, so when did that happen? No matter how hard I thought about it, I just couldn't wrap my head around it. It didn't make sense, it didn't make sense for him to pull this stunt on me. Was it Cynthia? Had she somehow convinced him to do this? Even though I asked myself a million and one question all at once, it did nothing to stop the fact that I knew the answers to the questions. It was Eliaz. It was all
