บททั้งหมดของ Revenge on My Billionaire Ex : บทที่ 31 - บทที่ 40

"I have personally selected you as my maid of honor, Elizabeth. This is a rare opportunity that comes along only once in a lifetime. It's a role anyone would want, even my wealthy friends would give up anything to be in your shoes."I stared at her, utterly dumbfounded by her audacity. The nerve of this woman!How could she possibly think that I would be okay attending her wedding? Especially when the groom happened to be my ex-husband whom I had been with for six years."Thank you but I'm not interested." I mustered a calm reply, thrusting the invitation back into her palms."Come on, Elizabeth," she murmured sweetly. "It's been so long since we've seen each other. I thought it would be a good opportunity for you to attend my wedding so we could bond."Bond? Really? I scoffed at her words."I appreciate the invitation, but attending your wedding is something I cannot do." I replied, mustering the strength to stand my ground. "I'm still in mourning, and it wouldn't be healthy for me i

Phoenix Mansion.The sound of a slap shattered the stillness of the living room.“How could you — just how could you do that to Celestine?” Esperanza's shrill voice echoed through the walls. With a panther-like gaze, she glared at her grandson.Crimson stood there, unmoving. His left cheek was red from the blow, yet he barely felt the pain. He was more concerned that she might suddenly collapse onto the carpet because of her emotional state.“You've caused an enormous scandal! People will be talking because of your actions, and the Phoenix family name will be under fire!”Crimson could feel the intensity of her anger radiating from her, as though it had a physical presence. He knew he had committed a grave mistake—one that his grandmother deemed unforgivable. However, for him, he had made the right decision.He had made the unthinkable yesterday and jilted the bride-to-be, Celestine Ford, at the very altar where they were supposed to exchange vows.Nobody could understand why he, an h

Meanwhile, at Havenwood Street, Ford Family Estate.Celestine Ford stood in the middle of her plush princess room, her hands clenched into fists at her sides, her chest rising and falling with rapid breaths.The events of the previous day replayed in her mind like a cruel, never-ending loop.She had been left at the altar, abandoned by the man she thought she would spend the rest of her life with.And now, to add insult to injury, he hadn't even bothered to send her a text message or show up at her door to offer an explanation.How could he do this to her? Crimson needed her and the Ford family's influence to salvage his family’s business. Yet, he callously abandoned her without considering the potential consequences of his actions.Frustration bubbled inside her like a pot about to boil over. She snatched her phone from the table, scrolled through her contacts, and tapped on Crimson's name.Yesterday, she had attempted to contact him twenty times, but he chose not to respond to any

Crimson's eyes shifted to Celestine, who quietly watched him with an unreadable expression. “The baby reminds me of someone,” he mumbled, trying to convince himself that he was indeed imagining things.Celestine's brow furrowed. “What are you talking about? She's just a baby. All babies look alike. Look at the shape of her nose and her eyes. She definitely inherited those features from you.”He couldn't help but observe his daughter's features closely, tracing the resemblance back to his own face.“Sir, we'll have to transfer the baby to the neonatal unit,” the nurse told him.He turned to the nurse and carefully passed the baby into her capable hands. Never before had he held something so delicate and precious, and it made him afraid that he would make a mistake and hurt the fragile child. Only after the nurse held the baby safely did he release the breath he had unknowingly been holding.The nurses and doctor left, leaving him and Celestine alone.“I understand that you may still ha

I thought about heading back to my room but then changed my mind. I couldn't stand lazing out, and my fingers were eager for some activity. "Ms. Sabrina, I see that everyone is busy. Is there anything I can help with?"Alarm crossed the older woman's gentle face. "You are our guest. Mrs. Everheart would not be pleased if she found out I made you work.""But you don't have to worry about that. I'm here to work regardless. Consider it my training," I reasoned.She let out a resigned sigh. "Well, since the boss hasn't mentioned anything, I suppose it's alright for me to assist for now. I actually have some things to finish at the banquet hall, and I can't handle it on my own.""Come with me." We walked down the seemingly endless corridor, then used the staircase to reach the floor above since the elevators are off limits to employees.Finally, after what felt like an eternity, we arrived at our destination, both trying to catch our breath when we stopped at a door. Ms. Sabrina pushed ope
