FROM DIVORCED TO BILLIONAIRE HEIR CHAPTER 187
The city streets were a blur of chaos and neon lights as the attackers closed in.Louis ducked behind an overturned car, his breath coming in sharp gasps.The sounds of gunfire and shouts echoed around him.Terminator X crouched nearby, his movements calm and deliberate as he reloaded his weapon.“They’re coordinated,” Terminator X muttered, scanning the area.“This isn’t a random hit. The Broker planned this.”Louis nodded, gripping a crowbar he’d picked up during the fight.“Then let’s make sure he knows we’re not easy targets.”Two operatives approached from the left, their movements swift and precise.Louis waited until they were close, then swung the crowbar with all his strength, knocking one to the ground.The second raised their weapon, but a single, well-placed shot from Terminator X took them out.“Stay sharp,” Terminator X said.“They’re trying to box us in.”“Juliet!” Louis shouted, glancing toward the alley where she had taken cover.“Are you clear?”Juliet’s voice came t

Louis Kindsor stood silently in the living room of the luxurious villa he shared with his wife, Vivian Howard.His face was a mask of calm, but his eyes betrayed a storm of emotions. In his hand, he held a tablet displaying surveillance footage that would change everything.As Vivian entered the room, her smile faltered at the sight of Louis's serious expression."What's wrong, dear?" she asked, her voice tinged with false sweetness.Without a word, Louis turned the tablet towards her. The footage showed Vivian entering a hotel with another man, their body language leaving little doubt about their intentions.Vivian's eyes widened, then narrowed. Instead of shame or remorse, her face twisted with anger. "You had someone follow me?" she hissed.Louis shook his head slowly, in disappointment."That's all you have to say? No explanation, no apology?"Vivian laughed dismissively, as if she didn’t care the least that Louis had caught her in an affair. "Why should I apologize? This is p

"Welcome back, sir," the crisp voice of Terminator X came through the phone. "It's time for you to return to your rightful place. You’ve been held back for too long."Louis leaned back in the plush leather seat, a fleeting look of desolation crossed his face. "You’re right. I’ve wasted too much time.”He then quickly adjusted his demeanor and ordered. “Forget it. Let’s talk about the current situation.""As you command, sir," Terminator X replied, “the 300 billion assets you previously invested globally have now multiplied several times, reaching 2 trillion. I’ve been overseeing them for you.” “Also, your 300 domestic companies are showing steady performance improvements.”“Now that you’re back, I can finally hand everything over to you, sound and safe.”Louis chuckled.He could feel Terminator X’s eagerness to turn in the burden, as if the weight of these assets was suffocating him. “No rush, my man, can’t you spare me a few days for relaxing? I just divorced, you know?”“I apo

And that girl was Vivian Howard.Back then, she had just graduated and was struggling to make ends meet.And that was when he decided to let go of everything and silently stand by her side.He never told Vivian about the events from over a decade ago, but he never forgot it either.He simply chose to support Vivian quietly.When she wanted to start a company, he provided the initial funding; when she wanted to expand it, he offered resources and connections from behind.However, alas, it turned out that the story didn’t end well for him.Louis gazed out the window at the city passing by. Apple City, where his journey had begun, where he had fallen in love with a girl who no longer existed. This time, when he left the villa, he didn’t take the doll with him because it was no longer necessary.It was the end of their relationship, after all.Now, it would be the stage for his return to power.Meanwhile, inside the villa, Vivian's phone rang. It was her mother, Victoria Howard."Is it

Vivian Howard paced the bedroom, the small doll clutched in her hand. Her mind raced with possibilities, a flicker of doubt crossing her face."Could Juliet and Louis be having affair behind my back?" She wondered aloud, her voice barely a whisper.But as quickly as the thought arose, she dismissed it with a shake of her head."No, that's impossible."She remembered she had never even introduced them. As for Juliet, she was the eldest daughter of the Beaumon Family—she had good looks, perfect figure, and a prestigious background.Although the Beaumon Clan wasn’t one of the four major Families, they were still an established name in Apple City.So how could Juliet possibly be interested in a lowlife like Louis?It was clear that Louis must have obtained the doll through improper means, just like some sleazy men who liked stealing women’s underwear.“Yuk! Truly disgusting!”Vivian tossed the doll back into the box, her disgust for Louis growing. She'd ask Juliet about it later, just

What the fuck?!Vivian couldn't believe what she heard. She couldn’t help but burst out laughing."Your company? Do you know that Apex Z Group is valued at 50 billion, and ranks 1st in Apple City? I bet a loser like you have no idea!” Vivian sneered loudly.“Ben, did you hear that? Louis thinks he owns Apex Z Group! That's funny!"Ben laughed too. "Wow, Louis. You're crazier than I thought. What's next? Are you going to say you're the king of Apple City?"Vivian looked disgusted. "I can't believe I was married to someone so stupid and boastful. You can't even tell what's real and what's not.""Maybe we should simply call security," Ben suggested playfully. "They'd love to meet the 'owner' of Apex Z Group. Want to give them a good laugh, Vivian?"Louis didn't say anything. He didn't look upset or angry. Their words didn't bother him at all.Louis moved to walk past Vivian and Ben, his face a mask of indifference. His didn’t want to waste another second on these two arrogant foo

Louis stood still, shocked. He just realized something big. The small doll he thought was Vivian's wasn't hers at all. This meant the kind girl who helped him years ago wasn't Vivian! All this time, he had been wrong!Louis felt many things at once - surprise, sadness, but also a bit relieved. He had spent years helping Vivian, thinking he was paying back her kindness. Now he knew it was all a mistake."What's wrong, Louis? Finally seeing how pathetic you are?" Seeing how quiet Louis was, Vivian said meanly.She thought he was finally embarrassed because she had caught him lying.This made her even angrier and more disgusted.Louis barely heard her. He was too busy thinking about what this all meant for his life.However, Vivian kept talking, and getting louder. "Why are you silent now? Weren’t you good at making up stories about knowing important people? Why not continue the play and give us a good show?"Vivian said more aggressively, her eyes filled with increased disdain.

Seeing how calm and collected Louis was, as if he was confident of victory, Vivian felt a surge of anger.She couldn’t wait to see how Louis would conjure up one million dollars for her right away.If he couldn’t, she swore she would make sure to drown him in her scorn!Louis calmly took out his phone and dialed a number. "Terminator X," he said, "I need you to send one million to the entrance of Apex Z Group now."Vivian's eyes got big. Seriously?!That Terminator X?! How could Louis be talking to him?“As you command, Sir. I’ill have John Wales, the General Manager of Apex Z Group, get the money ready.”Terminator X said on the phone.Louis ended the call and looked at Vivian. "Wait a few minutes," he said, not caring much.“Louis, how could your shame know no boundary?”Vivian's eyes widened in disbelief and mockery. "Do you even know who Terminator X is? Well, let me tell you, in case you have no idea.”“Terminator X is the richest man in the world! Do you know what that mean

The room fell silent as Louis processed the revelation.His hands clenched into fists.“He’s making this personal.”Juliet leaned forward, her expression firm.“We can’t let him bait us. If we act rashly, we’re playing into his hands.”“I won’t let him use you to get to me,” Louis said, his voice low but intense.“Whatever his plan is, we’ll stop it.”Pearl entered the room, sensing the tension.“What’s going on?”Juliet handed her the document.“The Broker’s targeting me.”Pearl’s face darkened as she read the file.“If he thinks we’ll just stand by and let this happen, he’s in for a rude awakening.”The envelope arrived on Juliet’s desk early in the morning, sealed with a wax stamp featuring an intricate insignia. She unfolded the note inside, her heart sinking as she read:“Your presence is requested at an exclusive gathering of Apple City’s most influential figures. Stakes are high, secrets even higher. The Broker awaits.”She handed it to Louis, who scanned it with a grim expres

The sound of hammering echoed through the AAA Group’s headquarters as workers repaired the damage from Vivian’s sabotage.The city, still reeling from the chaos, was beginning to rebuild. Louis stood by a large window, watching cranes move across the skyline.The city was recovering, but the scars of the battle remained.“Things are stabilizing,” Pearl said, entering the room with a tablet in hand.“Investors are returning, and the media’s finally painting you as the hero you are.”Louis sighed, his expression thoughtful.“It doesn’t feel like a victory, Pearl. Not with whispers of a new player already in motion.”Pearl raised an eyebrow.“The Broker?”He nodded.“Whoever they are, they’re making moves. Rumors of deals, alliances, threats—it’s too coordinated to ignore.”In a dimly lit café, Juliet sat across from a nervous informant, her voice low but firm.“You said The Broker has ties to The Eternals. I need names, connections—anything that gives me a lead.”The informant shifted u

The sun rose over the smoldering ruins of Vivian’s underground lab, its golden rays piercing through the lingering smoke.Louis pushed aside a broken piece of debris, his movements slow and labored.Cuts and bruises adorned his face, his suit tattered from the battle. But he was alive.“Louis!” Juliet’s voice cut through the silence, a mixture of relief and urgency.He turned to see Juliet and Pearl rushing toward him, their expressions a blend of worry and hope.“I’m okay,” Louis said, his voice hoarse but steady.“It’s over.”Pearl reached him first, helping him stand.“You look like hell,” she said, her tone light but her eyes filled with concern.“I’ve felt worse,” Louis replied with a faint smile.“Vivian?”They turned to see Terminator X dragging a dazed Vivian from the wreckage.Her once-commanding presence was gone, replaced by a hollow, defeated look.The faint glow that had once surrounded her body was extinguished, and her movements were weak.“She’s powerless now,” Termina
CHAPTER 183
The force field hummed with a menacing energy as Louis and Vivian circled each other in the central chamber of the lab.The relic pulsed between them, its light flickering erratically as if sensing the tension.“You should have joined me, Louis,” Vivian said, her voice low but edged with venom.“We could have been unstoppable.”Louis shook his head, his stance steady.“Unstoppable? You’re destroying everything you touch, Vivian. That’s not strength—it’s recklessness.”Vivian’s eyes flared with energy, her body glowing brighter.“And you’re a fool for clinging to outdated ideals. Let’s see how far those ideals get you.”With a sharp motion, she unleashed a blast of energy, the force crackling through the air.Louis dove behind a piece of equipment, the heat of the attack scorching the ground where he had stood.“You can’t hide forever!” Vivian shouted, launching another wave of power that shattered a row of consoles.Louis emerged from cover, his voice calm despite the chaos.“I’m not

Louis sat in the dimly lit conference room, his arms crossed as he stared at Hector across the table.The once-confident tycoon looked haggard, his tailored suit wrinkled and his demeanor shaken.“I want immunity,” Hector said, his voice trembling slightly.“In writing. No legal consequences, no retaliation.”Louis’s eyes narrowed.“And in exchange, you’ll give me Vivian’s location?”Hector nodded, his hands clasped tightly on the table.“I know where she’s hiding. I know everything she’s planning.”Juliet, standing behind Louis, crossed her arms.“And why should we trust you? You’ve been in bed with Vivian this whole time.”Hector flinched at her words but kept his focus on Louis.“Because I want out. Vivian’s lost control. She’s not just going after you—she’s going to bring down the entire city.”Louis leaned forward, his voice low and measured.“Why now, Hector? What’s changed?”Hector hesitated before replying.“She doesn’t care who she hurts anymore. I thought I could manage her,

The first blackout hit during rush hour. Apple City’s skyline, usually shimmering with lights, went dark, plunging entire districts into chaos.Traffic snarled as signals failed, and emergency sirens wailed through the streets.In the distance, a faint, eerie glow emanated from an underground source.Louis stood in the AAA Group’s operations center, surrounded by his core team.The tension was palpable.“Report,” Louis ordered, his voice sharp.Juliet, seated at a console, scanned the live updates.“Blackouts in three sectors. Power grid’s overloaded. We’re looking at structural damage in at least two skyscrapers.”“It’s the relic,” Terminator X said grimly.“Vivian’s pushing it too hard. The energy output is destabilizing everything.”Louis clenched his fists.“She’s tearing the city apart just to get to us.”Pearl entered, her phone in hand.“I’ve got contacts in the elite circles who are willing to help, but they need proof that Vivian’s behind this. Right now, she’s spinning it as

From a safe distance, Juliet and Pearl watched the duel unfold, their emotions a mix of awe and concern.“He’s holding his own,” Juliet said, her voice tense.“But she’s overwhelming him.”Pearl shook her head.“He’s not trying to overpower her. He’s making her expend her energy. It’s a classic tactic.”Juliet glanced at her, surprised.“You really trust him, don’t you?”“I do,” Pearl admitted.“But it’s not just trust—it’s understanding. He’s carrying more than anyone should have to.”Juliet’s expression softened.“You’re right. And maybe I’ve been too focused on my own frustrations to see that.”Pearl smiled faintly.“We both want the same thing—for him to make it through this. We just have different ways of showing it.”Vivian’s relentless attacks began to take their toll.Her movements became less precise, her energy surges less controlled. Louis noticed the change and seized the moment.“You’re slipping, Vivian,” he said, stepping out from his cover.“That power you’re so proud o

Louis turned to see her stepping out of the shadows, her figure illuminated by the faint glow of the relic’s energy coursing through her veins. Her movements were fluid, almost inhuman.“Vivian,” he said evenly.“We don’t have to do this. Whatever the relic did to you—”“It gave me clarity,” she interrupted, her voice rising.“For the first time, I see the world for what it is. Weak, chaotic, broken. And I’m going to fix it.”Louis stepped forward cautiously.“By tearing it apart?”“No,” she said, her eyes narrowing.“By rebuilding it in my image. I am the future of this city, Louis. You’re just a relic of its past.”With a flick of her wrist, Vivian sent a burst of energy hurtling toward Louis.He dove to the side, the blast narrowly missing him and leaving a scorched mark on the floor.“You see?” she said, her voice filled with dark glee.“This is what true power looks like. And you? You’re powerless against it.”Louis stood, his voice calm despite the tension.“Power doesn’t make y
