Pampered by my Billionaire CEO Husband

Aurelia Holt had quietly sacrificed her career to be a stay-at-home wife for her husband, Blake Carson, so that he could work full time while also pursuing his dream of becoming a successful producer in the future. But on the night of their second wedding anniversary, she watched her husband come home with another woman in his arms. It was Stella, his first love whom he was never really over. “She is already upset, you don’t have to make her feel worse. Is it wrong to show care and concern for my friend?” He argued as he clenched his jaws and kept his gaze steady on my face. “She isn’t just your friend, she was your ex, your first love. And isn’t it so convenient that everytime she needs you or something happens whenever I just want to spend some time with you?” He had always chosen Stella over her, putting her needs and feelings above hers. And that night, she finally had enough. “All you ever care about is Stella!” I continued to yell so loudly that I could practically hear my voice ringing in my ears. “You always do this! You always choose her over me, you always put her feelings above mine.” I watched as a smirk tugged at Stella’s lips as she watched me argue with my husband over her. Blake walked to her side, wrapping his arm around her as she curled her fingers around his arm with a pitiful look. “Stop yelling, you are scaring Stella. Why can’t you be more understanding and stop being so self-centered? Not everything is about you!” The last thing she remembered was her running out into the pouring rain and the next thing she knew, she was asking a stranger to marry her. That stranger was Xavier Wilder, the billionaire CEO of one of the most successful companies in the country. But there was more to him that Aurelia didn’t know just yet, something he was hiding from her. Together, she vowed to make her ex-husband’s life a living hell. There were only two things he cared about the most―his reputation and his ego. And she planned to destroy it all, bit by bit.

Chapter 26: Leave him alone!

The familiar voice reached my ears and my eyes landed on Stella who was staring dead into my eyes with clear disdain written all over her face. 

I ignored her, turning to walk away when she ran up to me and roughly grabbed me by my arm, pulling me back. I clicked my tongue in annoyance and anger started to pulse inside my veins as I yanked my arm out from her tight grasp in an instant.

"What do you want?" I asked curtly as I glared at her.

A chuckle emerged from her throat. "What do I want?" She repeated with an incredulous look plastered across her face. "Did you not hear me earlier? I want you to leave Blake alone," her sharp voice pierced through the air as tension hung in the air between us like a thick blanket.

I smiled. 

"How can I possibly leave him alone if I'm his new team lead? He reports to me now," I announced as a smirk tugged at the corners of my lips and my eyes gleamed with a knowing look which only made her anger grow.
