Chased By My Billionaire Ex-husband
Claire Reed thought she married the man of her dreams, Evander Kensington, but she had no idea that their marriage was built on a lie; a family vow that trapped him by her side. His heart, however, belonged to another woman, his white lotus. No matter how hard Claire tried to win Evander’s love, he only grew colder, and his family treated her like she didn’t exist. When she lost their unborn child, Claire’s world shattered. She wanted to see Evander, but he didn't bother to check on her. Instead, he went to meet that white lotus. Unable to bear the betrayal, she decided to free Evander from this marriage, leaving behind a letter and divorce papers, claiming she now had someone else she loved! ~~~~ "You’re mine, and I’ll never let you go!” he declared, his voice dark with possessiveness. “But I don’t want you anymore! You can have Susan—I’m now in love with someone else!” Claire shot back, her words sharp and final. "You can't be with anyone. Do you even know how sleepless nights I've without you?" Evander's hold on her tightened. "I'll see how you become some else when I'll claim you," he pronounced before crashing his lips on her.
Your Brother Was...
Evander's POV
I was worried about Claire as I dragged her to my mansion, and it hurt to see how much she doubted me, more than I could admit. I wanted to tend to her bruises, to soothe her pain, but I could see the way she looked at me— with hate, suspicion, and a guardedness that cut me to the core. So, for now, I decided to hold back. I would win her trust again, piece by piece, and make sure she never had to feel wary of me ever again.
I wanted her to open up, to confide in me, to tell me everything that was on her mind and in her heart. But I knew that was a distant dream. I had a long way to go before she could see me as anything other than a source of her pain.
