Billionaire Regrets After Divorce: Searching For Ex-Wife Chapter 1 Husband's ex-fiancee returns.

Ellie woke up with a start; she rubbed her tired eyes and looked at the wall clock.

It was past ten o'clock at night.

Ellie walked into the kitchen, looked at the cold dishes on the table, and reheated each dish; her movements were skillful as if she had done it countless times. While doing so, she thought, "He's coming home late again today."

The phone rang, breaking the quiet night. Ellie stopped what she was doing and walked out to the living room. She looked at the strange number on the phone screen, frowned slightly, but still pressed the answer button.

Without waiting for her to ask, the caller spoke first, "Richard's wife, right? Come here and take him home; he's passed out drunk."

It was a girl's voice, and although she couldn't see her face, Ellie could hear her impatience through the sound.

The girl gave an address and immediately hung up, not giving Ellie a chance to refuse.

Ellie was a little suspicious; something like this had never happened before.

She and Richard got married by accident. That year, his fiancée ran away before the wedding day; he didn't want to lose face in front of everyone, so he found another girl to be the bride; Ellie was the chosen girl.

At that time, Ellie's grandmother had a traffic accident and needed urgent surgery. The cost of the surgery was an amount that a poor person like her couldn't afford. Therefore, she agreed to marry Richard.

Ellie knew this marriage was just a transaction; the two had no feelings for each other, but in her heart, she was genuinely grateful to Richard because his timely appearance brought her a ray of light.

But life was still not easy for Ellie because, in everyone's eyes, she was not worthy of Richard.

Richard Winthorpe comes from the Winthorpe family - one of the five wealthiest families in the country. Since childhood, he has shown outstanding excellence compared to all children of the same age; at the age of eleven, he was exposed to the business world; at the age of fifteen, he completed a major project and was hailed as a business genius by everyone; at the age of twenty, he was able to manage several companies skillfully, had a solid reputation in the financial world, and was a sought-after young businessman; After that, he gradually developed, bringing his name to a new height.

His identity value lies not only in his talent but also in the Winthorpe family behind him. In just a few years, he will officially inherit the family, own a fortune of hundreds of thousands of billions, and become the wealthiest billionaire in the country.

Therefore, the girl who lost her parents at the age of 6 was picked up by a poor older woman who grew up in the slums - Ellie is not worthy of him.

The two are two different worlds; one is in the sky, and the other is in the abyss.

Ellie quickly drove to the address the girl said. It was a famous four-star restaurant in the city. After telling the banquet room number, Ellie was led by the waiter.

The door opened, and inside was an ample space beautifully decorated with many balloons and flowers; the atmosphere was bustling with laughter.

Looking in the direction of the noise, Ellie immediately saw Richard being surrounded by people. They were noisy, cheering in unison: "Kiss her, kiss her, kiss her..."

At this moment, Ellie noticed that it was not only Richard who people surrounded but there was also a beautiful girl beside him.

The scene looked like a successful proposal, and the main couple was cheered by everyone to 'kiss.' Ellie would feel happy and blessed if the male character were not her husband.

It took a few seconds for Ellie to remember who the beautiful girl was. She was so surprised that she froze on the spot.

At this moment, someone in the crowd discovered Ellie standing stunned at the door and shouted: "Who are you? Why did you barge in here?"

The voice attracted everyone's attention, and they looked curiously towards Ellie.

Someone quickly recognized her and said, "Isn't this Richard's wife?"

All eyes turned towards Richard.

Richard frowned slightly; he was also surprised when Ellie appeared here; a feeling of guilt arose in his heart as if he had been caught cheating by his wife. But that feeling only appeared for a second and then disappeared because Richard did not think he was wrong; on the contrary, he felt angry because he thought Ellie was following him.

He asked in a low voice: "Why did you come here?"

The simple question carried a majestic and annoyed aura that calmed Ellie. She looked at Richard awkwardly; her panicked mind made her not know how to answer.

Everyone looked at Ellie with eyes watching a comedy; the gossip did not hide the malice aimed straight at her.

"Oh, what's going on? Richard's wife came here to fight? Does she have the right to do that?"

"How did she know Martha was back and come here? Can she compare to Martha?"

"She was afraid that Richard would return to Martha and abandon her, so she came here to cause trouble. Did she want to embarrass Martha?"

"Don't exaggerate; she is Richard's wife, after all. Aren't you afraid that Richard will be angry with us?"

"What's there to be afraid of? She's just Richard's toy. Now that Martha is back, Richard will abandon her."

"She's just Martha's substitute!"

All the gossip reached Ellie's ears, and when she saw the words on the wall behind everyone, she finally understood what was happening to her.

Martha – Richard's fiancée, who ran away 6 years ago, had returned. The people here were her and Richard's friends; they were holding a party to celebrate her return.

Ellie shouldn't have been here as a substitute, but someone deliberately played a trick on her by calling her here so that everyone would misunderstand that she wanted to disrupt the party.

This was not the first time Ellie had been trapped like this, but it was when Ellie felt the most awkward because a stuntman stood in front of the main character; it felt ridiculous.

Martha took a few steps forward, smiled gently at Ellie, and said softly: "Don't misunderstand; nothing happened between me and Richard. I came back today; he just came to congratulate me a little. Since you've come, stay and play with us."

Today, Martha was the main character, so she deliberately dressed very gorgeously, with delicate makeup, her gestures exuding the nobility of a noble lady; on the contrary, Ellie wore a loose long coat, and everyone could vaguely see that under the coat was a simple nightgown, her face was bare, her hair was messy.

Standing beside each other, the contrast was more prominent; Ellie looked more miserable.

Martha's words seemed to relieve Ellie, but in fact, it was to confirm that Ellie came here to cause trouble out of jealousy.

"No, I didn't know you were back..." Being criticized by everyone, Ellie regained her composure and blurted out an explanation; before she could finish speaking, Richard pulled her out.

The door closed, the crowd's chatter was blocked, and Richard's deep voice rang in Ellie's ears.

"You should go home!"

From the moment she arrived here, seeing Richard and Martha together, being attacked by everyone with insults, discovering that she was trapped but unable to explain, Ellie felt indignant and speechless.

At this moment, Richard showed coldness and impatience, wanting to chase her away; she knew he also believed those people's words. "Listen to me, and I didn't know you were having a party here. Someone called me..."

Once again, her explanation was interrupted by the door suddenly opening, a young man sticking his head out, urgently calling Richard: "Richard, Martha is injured."

Richard's expression immediately changed; he resolutely turned around and entered the room, leaving Ellie with a choked voice.

Looking at Richard's back until the door slammed shut, Ellie couldn't believe it; in the past 6 years, she had never seen Richard look so panicked.

I was sitting in the Presidential Suite of The Pierre, wearing a Vera Wang gown worth more than most people earn in a decade. It was supposed to be the wedding of the century, the final move to merge two of Manhattan's most powerful empires. Then my phone buzzed. It was an Instagram Story from my fiancé, Jameson. He was at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris with a caption that read: "Fuck the chains. Chasing freedom." He hadn't just gotten cold feet; he had abandoned me at the altar to run across the world. My father didn't come in to comfort me. He burst through the door roaring about a lost acquisition deal, telling me the Holland Group would strip our family for parts if the ceremony didn't happen by noon. My stepmother wailed about us becoming the laughingstock of the Upper East Side. The Holland PR director even suggested I fake a "panic attack" to make myself look weak and sympathetic to save their stock price. Then Jameson’s sleazy cousin, Pierce, walked in with a lopsided grin, offering to "step in" and marry me just to get his hands on my assets. I looked at them and realized I wasn't a daughter or a bride to anyone in that room. I was a failed asset, a bouncing check, a girl whose own father told her to go to Paris and "beg" the man who had just publicly humiliated her. The girl who wanted to be loved died in that mirror. I realized that if I was going to be sold to save a merger, I was going to sell myself to the one who actually controlled the money. I marched past my parents and walked straight into the VIP holding room. I looked the most powerful man in the room—Jameson’s cold, ruthless uncle, Fletcher Holland—dead in the eye and threw the iPad on the table. "Jameson is gone," I said, my voice as hard as stone. "Marry me instead."

I woke up in a blindingly white hotel penthouse with a throbbing headache and the taste of betrayal in my mouth. The last thing I remembered was my stepsister, Cathie, handing me a flute of champagne at the charity gala with a smile that didn't reach her eyes. Now, a tall, dangerously handsome man walked out of the bathroom with a towel around his hips. On the nightstand sat a stack of hundred-dollar bills. My stepmother had finally done it—she drugged me and staged a scandal with a hired escort to destroy my reputation and my future. "Aisha! Is it true you spent the night with a gigolo?" The shouts of a dozen reporters echoed through the heavy oak door as camera flashes exploded through the peephole. My phone lit up with messages showing my bank accounts were already frozen. My father was invoking the 'morality clause' in my mother’s trust fund, and my fiancé had already released a statement dumping me to marry my stepsister instead. I was trapped, penniless, and being hunted by the press for a scandal I hadn't even participated in. My own family had sold me out for a payday, and the man standing in front of me was the only witness who could prove I was innocent—or finish me off for good. I didn't have time to cry. According to the fine print of the trust, I had thirty days to prove my "rehabilitation" through a legal marriage or I would lose everything. I tracked the man down to a coffee shop the next morning, watching him take a thick envelope of cash from a wealthy older woman. I sat across from him and slid a napkin with a $50,000 figure written on it. "I need a husband. Legal, paper-signed, and convincing." He looked at the number, then at me, a slow, crooked smile spreading across his face. I thought I was hiring a desperate gigolo to save my inheritance. I had no idea I was actually proposing to Dominic Fields, the reclusive billionaire shark who was currently planning a hostile takeover of my father’s entire empire.
