All Chapters of Billionaire's Pregnant Ex-wife : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Grey stared at me, mouth parted open. If he thinks I will continue to beg for his love, he’s mistaken! Wordlessly, I pulled my wedding ring from my finger and laid it on top of the table. It was a gesture that I’m done fulfilling the vows I made in front of the altar, and I’m setting him free. Without a moment's delay, I made my way to the door, not bothering to take one last look at him. The love I had for him disappeared. Hate took over.I marched to the parking area where my car was waiting, opened the door, and climbed into the driver’s seat. My heart still hammered inside my rib cage, even after I sat on the leather chair. Our conversation painfully reverberated in my thoughts. I had to close my eyes to calm myself before I broke into a sob. When my eyes lifted open, the turmoil inside me had subsided. I took a deep, calming breath and turned the engine on before maneuvering the car out of the parking area.Soon, the car peacefully traversed the highway under a starless sky. I h

My eyes popped open, and my jaw dropped to the flawless white floor. My birthday? I mumbled under my breath, still dazed. I turned to check the calendar on the wall. When I saw the date, a soft gasp escaped my lips, and I made a facepalm in my mind. Why did I forget the most special day of my life? It took me a moment to compose myself. I closed my mouth before a fly could enter and dropped to my knees in front of Mom. “Happy birthday, Lily,” Mom whispered weakly. She caressed my cheek with her frail hands and surveyed my face. “I’m sorry I have no present to give you,” she said regretfully. My heart shattered into pieces. “You don’t need to give me one, Mom,” I told her. The regret in her eyes transformed into warmth. “Having you here by my side today is the greatest gift I could ever receive.” Tears clouded her eyes, and for a moment, I thought she would cry. But she blinked back the tears and held my hands. A soft smile emerged from her thin, pale lips. “I’m lucky to have a da

Grabbing the mop, I marched into the kitchen, leaving everyone in shock. “Lily! You should go to Mr. Bradford’s office and apologize to him,” one of my co-workers, Lia, followed me inside. Panic filled her ashen face. “No, I will not apologize to him, Lia,” I replied. My calm demeanor alarmed her even more. “But h–he will fire you,” she blurted, forcing everyone in the kitchen to look at us. I grabbed Lia’s arms and ushered her to the Staff Room for privacy. “Maybe he will, but it’s better than seeing him every day,” I mumbled under my breath, opening the door and returning the mop to the cleaning equipment. “I don’t want to lose you, Lily,” she whined. “You’ve been my best friend since I started here four years ago. If you get fired, there’s no one to share lunch with me.” “Don’t be silly. We could still eat lunch together at our favorite restaurant anytime,” I told her calmly, noticing how strange her eyeglasses looked for the first time. “But it wouldn’t be the same. Here, w

The air of elegance that Natalia carried with her vanished, revealing a woman who, despite her beauty, was harboring insecurities. “You—” she spat, her cheeks turning crimson. She spoke loudly enough to attract the attention of the small crowd. Realizing a dozen pairs of eyes were on her, she pursed her lips into a thin line.“Sorry to cut this conversation short. You're not the only guest I have to attend to.” I didn’t waste a moment waiting for her reply. Turning my back to her, I held my chin up and walked away.I closed the door to the employee room and let go of the breath I hadn’t realized I was holding before collapsing onto the upholstered chair. My eyes fluttered closed. I almost didn’t recognize myself a moment ago. It was as if an inner beast had been unleashed within me. The door opened abruptly. My eyes flew open at the sound, and I found Lia closing the door before sitting in the chair next to me. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to eavesdrop, but I heard everything,” she br

“An unusual coincidence, sir,” I replied with a shrug.“Aren’t you curious to know who you look like? She’s a member of our family, and we adored her deeply,” one of them said quietly, still unable to tear his gaze off my face.I looked at the man who had just spoken. Squinting my eyes, I surveyed him more closely. He had enchanting, jade-colored eyes, I thought to myself, unable to look away for a moment.My curious gaze roamed to see if any of his other brothers shared the same eye color. To my surprise, none of them did; their eye colors differed from one another.“She was really kind and beautiful. We look at her with respect and reverence,” one of them spoke, bringing my wandering thoughts back to the present.Maybe I looked like their cousin, their sister, or their mother, I thought with a shrug.Finally succumbing to the urge, I asked them, “Do I look like who?” My voice was so low it was barely audible.It was the first man who entered the restaurant who answered. “You look li
