BILLIONAIRE EX WANTS ME BACK CHAPTER FIFTY-THREE - SEEING THE EX
Cassy POV“So, what brings you here, boss?”“Will you quit calling me that? It gives me the chills. We always address each other by our first names. That should not change.” I never had any airs, and Norma knows that from way back.“Well, three years ago, you were a renowned bestselling author, but now, after your brother took the reins of the business, you already owned two lifestyle magazines in circulation as part of the publishing company. And the franchise talk is now in the offing. You are going to be a multi-billionaire soon.” In just a few sentences, Norma gave me a rundown of what has happened at the company since I became inactive.“And what’s more, the merchandise department is performing great, raking in million
BILLIONAIRE EX WANTS ME BACK CHAPTER FIFTY-FOUR - MEETING THE EX
Cassy POVTory drew me inside. We wound up squeezing ourselves between bodies gyrating like snakes to the sound of a flirty modern dance tune so we could cross to the VIP rooms she reserved for us just before we got inside the club. A member of the club, Tory easily wiggled her way around. “Tory, sweetheart! Long time, no see.” A drunk man blocked our path, surprising both of us. He was raising a liquor glass in the air as if toasting us. “Get out of my way, Rick.” She bumped the guy so he would be dislodged from our path, allowing us to walk through. The guy might be drunk, but he was proving strong. He wouldn’t budge. Instead of unblocking our path, he looked in the direction of the couches and smiled. "I am with my friends." He told Tory menacingly, warning her not to embarrass him in front of his friends. Rick's friends are looking at us. They were laughing and bumping fists while egging him on.Spurred by the support, he looked Tory in the eye.Bah! As if he can order T
BILLIONAIRE EX WANTS ME BACK CHAPTER FIFTY-FIVE - I DON'T LIKE YOU, TOO
Tory POVWhen Caleb took Cassy away after dropping the bomb that they were married, the entire club became silent.It was a you-could-hear-a-pin-drop kind of silence. That kind of silence.Then, it became a bedlam right after.Everyone started talking. They could not understand what had just happened.Caleb is one of the most outstanding bachelors out there, and people knew he and Amanda Hayes were engaged for a while.Then, here comes a nobody whom he claims as his wife. Of course, people will start talking. Everyone was so generous with their opinion; you would think all of them were flawless the way they dished out unsavory things against my best friend when they did not know her at all.Talk about judgment!I hate it when people talk about Cassy like she was some kind of gold digger without knowing her full background.I heard some girls saying that the reason Caleb hid her was because she was someone unworthy of his stature. I would like to refute them, but it was futile. People
BILLIONAIRE EX WANTS ME BACK CHAPTER FIFTY-SIX - UNINVITED GUEST
Cassy POVMy mood instantly plummeted outside the police station and went downhill from there. Without waiting for Tory, I climbed the short steps to the apartment.The nanny greeted me. She assured me that the kids were still sleeping. Even so, I wanted to see them.This was the first night I stayed out late; leaving them in the care of someone other than my family or close friends felt strange.So, after paying the nanny and letting her out of the door, I charged up the steps to the children's bedroom. They were both sound asleep. I tiptoed inside the room to hover from their bed, watching their chest rise and fall in rhythm.Getting my fill, I kissed them both on the forehead before getting up and going out of the bedroom, making sure I pulled the door shut on my way out.I went downstairs to the waiting Tory, surprised when she was not there, and in her place, I found Tony sitting calmly by one of the couches.Frowning in confusion, I asked, “Where is Tory?”Tony shrugged his s
BILLIONAIRE EX WANTS ME BACK CHAPTER FIFTY-SEVEN - WANTS TO PLAY DADDY
Cassy POVThe whole morning, Caleb attended to the kids. Oakley warmed up to him immediately.I could not blame her. Even before we came here, she would often ask about her father, and she was so vocal against Tony. That clued me in on her stand on meeting her daddy.But looking at Joachim, I could not say he shares his sister’s feelings.He sat beside me the whole breakfast.“Joachim, do you want more?” He asked our child, who simply shook his head in reply.His twin sister makes up for the lack of enthusiasm on his part. Oakley quickly volunteered.“I want more.” Then, she smiled like a cherub to her dad.Watching Caleb, I could not help but smile secretly at the stunned look on his face.He was enamored by his little girl. I could tell by the few interactions he had with her.Well, very few could resist Oakley if she turned on her charming self on the full. This morning, it was switched to full blast. It was amusing to watch Caleb looking rattled at Oakley's every request. “Wate
BILLIONAIRE EX WANTS ME BACK CHAPTER FIFTY-EIGHT - SURPRISE VISITOR
Inside the car, I did not look back and just sat primly on the back until the cab pulled outside my apartment. After paying him generously, I got out to meet the representative from the car shop.He was waiting in the curb with my newly purchased car.He handed me the necessary documents for the purchase, the car’s key and registration.When he left, I took the wheels and drove it to CB Publishing.The guards stood at attention when he recognized me. As usual, they greeted me courteously and let me pass. I passed by the same receptionist at the reception area. This time, she greeted me with a warm smile.I smiled back, indicating I didn’t take to heart what happened yesterday.Just as I was about to board the elevator, Norma came rushing out.“Cassy! You are here!” She grabbed me by the arm and drew me inside the waiting elevator. She must have been expecting me, and the guard tipped her off my arrival.“I heard about the incident yesterday. Why didn’t you tell me?” She asked aft
BILLIONAIRE EX WANTS ME BACK CHAPTER FIFTY-NINE - OHANA
I was seething by the time I went inside my car. With my hands on the steering wheel, I backed out of the parking lot without checking on Caleb’s car, not caring whether he was following as he said. I drove fast, too. Fifteen minutes, and I was already parking my car on the school grounds. I went out of my car and walked the short distance to the twins’ classroom to wait outside. Joachim was the first student to get out of his class. He walked leisurely to my side. “Where is your sister?” I asked. He motioned in the direction of their classroom. “She'll be out in a moment.” True enough, a quick look at the door opening showed his little sister getting out of the classroom. She was struggling with her backpack, but a tall man strode in her direction to help her. He took her backpack from her. Oakley smiled when she identified the man. “Daddy! You came!” Everyone around us gasped when they heard Oakley address the man. There were some buzzing sounds when they started to w
BILLIONAIRE EX WANTS ME BACK CHAPTER SIXTY - OF LOCKS AND LOSING CONTACT
Cassy POV I started to shake my head when Caleb assisted the two kids in the back passenger, surprised he was ready with child seats for them.That impressed me. I thought the billionaire playboy would not know anything about them and would come in unprepared.Then, he closed the door and opened the front passenger door for me. That pulled me from my trance.I shook my head, intending to get to my car.I changed my mind; I did not want to ride with them.Their talk about family and the mansion where Caleb and I used to live opened a can of worms I would rather keep unopened.Then, I heard Wax and Oaks calling out to me from the backseat.“Mommy!”“Mommy, get in!”“The kids are waiting. Do not disappoint them.” Caleb whispered in my ears.The reminder made me change my mind.I hurriedly got inside Caleb’s car so as not to give myself another chance to change it again.Caleb bent to assist me with the seatbelt, but I grabbed it from him. “I can do it,” I said in a slightly harsh voic
