FROM DIVORCED TO BILLIONAIRE HEIR CHAPTER 28
The lobby fell silent for a moment before Vivian burst into hysterical laughter, clutching Ben's arm for support.Her laughter echoed off the marble walls, drawing curious glances from other guests."Did you hear that, baby?" she wheezed between laughs. "He says he booked Lavish Oasis! The private suite reserved for Terminator X only!"Ben's lips curled into a smirk. "Maybe the delivery job comes with hallucinations.""You really are pathetic," Vivian wiped tears of mirth from her eyes, careful not to smudge her makeup. "First stalking me, now lying about booking Terminator X's private suite? Have you completely lost it?"“Why don’t you wee and check your reflection carefully? Do you think you can even afford the Lavish Oasis??”Vivian was enraged by Louis’s shamelessness and pretentiousness.Did Louis think she was a fool that would easily fall for his tricks?!Louis checked his watch, his face emotionless. "Whether I can afford it or not, is none of your business.""Fuck you, de

"The delusion is strong with this one," Ben smirked."Why would Terminator X tell YOU anything?" Vivian's voice rose with vicious glee. "You're nothing but a wannabe rich guy delivering takeout! God, this is pathetic even for you, Louis!"Louis remained silent, his mind drifting briefly to memories of Neckor Island.The pristine beaches, the exclusive villas, the private meetings..."What's wrong? Cat got your tongue?" Vivian preened, mistaking his silence for defeat. "Well, let me tell you something special again - my wedding will be held at Neckor Island. Yes, at the most prestigious wedding venue in the world!""And guess what?"She continued, practically bouncing with satisfaction."Terminator X will personally give us their blessing. That's right - while you're here making up stories about private suites, I'll be receiving a wedding gift from the wealthiest person in the world!"Louis's face remained impassive, which only fueled Vivian's aggressive triumph.Her eyes glittered

Louis exhaled deeply as Vivian and Ben's voices finally faded.He reached for his phone as it buzzed. The screen lit up with "Terminator X" calling."Hello?"“I hope I’m not interrupting your evening, Sir.”Louis raised an eyebrow, slightly amused. “Not at all. In fact, I was about to call you myself. I heard you’ll be on Neckor Island next week. I’m guessing it was meant to be a surprise?”There was a pause on the other end, followed by an awkward chuckle. “Indeed, Sir, you’re always one step ahead.” “I was planning a grand welcome, but now ... I suspect you’d rather I kept things simple?”“Spot on,” Louis replied with a slight smile. “I appreciate the gesture, but a low-key meeting is more my style.”“Consider it done, Sir.” Terminator X said respectfully.“And one more thing, Sir. Your ex-wife’s fiance had booked a wedding on Neckor Island a week later. Should I cancel it as a little ‘lesson’? It’d be no trouble at all.”“No need.”Louis shook his head. He didn’t want to was

“Haha, maybe we have met when we were kids and forgot all about it!”“You're so funny! Seriously though, talking to you feels so... familiar. Safe, somehow.”He smiled sadly at her words, wishing he could tell her everything – how she'd saved his life, how he'd carried that gratitude all these years.“That's one of the nicest things anyone's ever said to me.”“You bring out the honest side in me. I can't explain it, but I'm so glad we're friends.”“Me too, Juliet.”As he typed those words, Louis made a silent promise to himself. He'd find a way to repay her kindness, even if she never knew the full story. Sometimes, he reflected, the best way to honor the past was to protect the present.The morning sun glinted off Necker Island's pristine dock as luxury yachts bobbed gently in the crystal-clear waters. Louis adjusted his casual linen shirt, taking in the extravagant wedding decorations that transformed the already stunning venue into something magical."Well, well, well. Look what

However, Victoria stepped closer, her voice venomous. "Listen here, you worthless—""No, you listen," Louis interrupted calmly without stopping or looking backward. "Enjoy your standing here making assumptions and learn to shut up.” “Even better, why don't you watch and learn how a real entrance is made?"Jackson laughed mockingly. "Oh, this I've got to see. The great Louis about to be humiliated!"Watching Louis’s receding figure, Jackson couldn’t help but laughed out loud.Without an invitation, Louis would surely be humiliated.And he couldn’t wait to see that good show."Watch this circus show. He's about to get the humiliation he deserves." Victoria whispered.Her red lips curling into a cruel smile. Meanwhile, Louis continued walking, his steps measured and sure.Approached the checkpoint, Louis could feel the blatantly malicious gaze, but he remained unmoved.Twelve armed sentinels stood at attention, their black uniforms and reflective sunglasses creating an imposing ba

Hanging up the phone, Louis walked along the island’s unique scenic path, following the iconic crytal-stone path.Everything was just like before, which made Louis feel as if he had returned to the past.Before he knew it, Louis had already passed through the tropical gardens.Soon, the path wound through tropical gardens until the wedding venue appeared – a masterpiece of crystal and precious gems catching the sunlight in rainbow prisms."And now, ..." Just then, the officiant's voice carried through the structure."By the words of God and the witnesses, I now pronounce the groom, Ben Gutsby, and the bride, Vivian Howard, as husband and wife. You may kiss...”Outside the transparent wedding chapel made of crystal and gems, Louis heard Vivian’s name and glanced in that direction.There, he saw Vivian in her bridal gown, her makeup heavy, her smile broad.However, Louis’s gaze didn’t linger on her for the least bit.Instead, his gaze shifted to Juliet, who stood not far away, wearing

How could the gentle, supportive Louis be the same person Vivian called 'the biggest mistake of her life'?"What's your plan this time?" Vivian demanded. angrily "Try to win me back? Make some dramatic scene? Beg for another chance like the desperate dog you are?""He's probably hoping to get his picture in the society pages," Jackson called from the back. "Still trying to climb that social ladder!""You disgust me," Vivian continued, her voice echoing off the crystal walls."Mom was right about everything – you're nothing but a calculated fraud who fooled me once. Never again!"The guests shifted uncomfortably, some already posting to social media, others recording the confrontation with barely concealed excitement.Juliet felt her world tilting sideways. The Louis who defended my family's honor... is the same man they're calling a social-climbing fraud?How could that be?Something must be wrong, right?"Security!" Vivian screamed again. "Get this piece of garbage out of my si

Unlike the others, she saw no humor in this public humiliation."He probably practiced this entrance in the mirror," a young socialite giggled. "Rehearsed his little dramatic moment!""Should we call animal control?" someone joked cruelly. "Seems we have a stray that needs removing!"Vivian basked in the mockery. "See, Louis? Everyone knows exactly what you are – a desperate nobody who can't accept rejection."The crystal walls seemed to amplify every cutting laugh, every whispered insult. Only Juliet remained silent, her mind wrestling with the contradiction between the Louis she knew and the one being portrayed."Security's taking their time," a groomsman called out."Maybe he bribed them too!""Wouldn't put it past him," Vivian sneered. "He always was good at crawling his way into places he doesn't belong.""What's wrong, Louis?" Vivian taunted. "No clever comebacks? Finally realizing your place in the world?"Everyone laughed as if Louis was a joker and trying to humiliate h

As the three struggled toward the exit, Terminator X worked to clear a path, his reinforced frame absorbing hits from falling rubble.The tremors grew stronger, and a deafening roar signaled the Citadel’s imminent collapse.Just as they reached the threshold of the main hall, a massive beam fell, pinning Edward’s leg.He cried out in pain, collapsing to the ground. Juliet turned back, her expression torn."Leave me!" Edward shouted."Get Louis out of here!"Louis stopped, his body trembling as he looked at his father. The Heart’s energy surged again, reacting to his turmoil."No. I won’t abandon you.""You have to!" Edward yelled."The Heart is killing you! You can’t save me and yourself."Juliet grabbed Louis’s arm, desperation in her voice."Louis, we’re running out of time!"For a moment, everything seemed to freeze.The collapsing Citadel, the roaring energy, Juliet’s pleading eyes, and Edward’s resignation—all of it blurred as Louis made his decision.With a scream of effort, he

The shattered Mirror fragment on the ground glowed with malevolent light, feeding into the chaos as arcs of energy leapt from the Heart embedded in Louis’ chest.He clutched at it, gasping, his body wracked with pain as his powers spiraled beyond his control."Louis!" Juliet screamed over the deafening roar of the collapsing Shadow Citadel.She reached for him, but an invisible force hurled her backward.Terminator X caught her just before she hit the crumbling wall."Stay back!" Louis managed to shout, his voice distorted and layered, as if multiple beings spoke through him.His glowing eyes turned toward The Seer, who stood unfazed amidst the chaos. Her smile was eerily serene, her robes rippling as if caught in an unseen wind."Do you feel it, Louis?" The Seer cooed, stepping closer."The Heart’s true power. It’s overwhelming, isn’t it? But you and I—we were meant to wield it together. To shape this broken world into perfection."Louis staggered, every step he took leaving scorch m

The ruins of the Shadow Citadel loomed like a skeletal monument against the blood-red sky.Every step Louis took toward the decayed fortress felt heavier than the last, as if the weight of destiny itself pressed down on his shoulders.Behind him, Juliet and Terminator X moved in silence, their eyes scanning for traps.Inside, the atmosphere was stifling, the air thick with the acrid tang of power.The Seer waited in the center of the grand hall, her robes flowing as if animated by an unseen wind.Her smile was a mixture of triumph and malice as she greeted them.“Right on time, Louis,” she purred.“Though I expected you to come alone. It seems your attachments weigh you down.”Louis stopped a few feet from her, his fists clenched.“Enough games. You wanted me here—let’s end this.”The Seer tilted her head, feigning disappointment.“So quick to fight. But before we begin, there’s something you should know.”She raised a hand, and from the shadows emerged Edward Cavendish, his face a ma

The message from The Seer played on a loop in his mind:“Meet me at the ruins of the Shadow Citadel within 24 hours, or I’ll unleash destruction that will echo through the ages.”Her voice, laced with venom, left no room for doubt—this was a challenge, and refusal wasn’t an option.Juliet stood by the window, her arms crossed, gazing at the storm clouds rolling in over the horizon.“She’s bluffing,” she said, breaking the silence.“She’s always been one for theatrics. We should strike first.”Louis stopped pacing and looked at her.“And what if she’s not bluffing? What if this ‘weapon’ is something we can’t stop once it’s unleashed?”Juliet turned to face him, her eyes sharp.“Then you make sure it doesn’t get that far. The Seer thrives on fear, Louis. You can’t let her dictate the terms.”Before Louis could respond, Terminator X’s metallic voice cut through the tension.“Charging into her domain without a plan is suicide. The Shadow Citadel is a trap. Always has been.”Louis sighed,

Louis woke to the sound of distant sirens and panicked voices echoing through the streets.The room was dim, illuminated only by the faint, pulsing glow of the Heart embedded in his chest.He sat up abruptly, his body still aching from the overload."Juliet?" he called out, his voice hoarse.She was by his side in an instant, her face etched with concern."Louis, you’re awake. Thank god.""What happened?" he asked, the memories of his power surge flooding back.Juliet hesitated."Your powers... They triggered a blackout. The entire city’s gone dark."Louis’s chest tightened."No... I didn’t mean to—""It wasn’t your fault," Juliet said firmly, gripping his hand."But we need to act fast. The blackout has caused chaos, and The Seer’s people are taking advantage of it."The streets of Apple City were unrecognizable.Shops were ransacked, fires burned unchecked, and crowds of terrified citizens roamed aimlessly in the dark.The city’s law enforcement struggled to maintain order, but thei

Louis stared at it, his jaw clenched, the weight of failure pressing down on him like a vice."We’re running out of time," he muttered, pacing back and forth."Without the Mirror, I can’t see the paths clearly. We’re fighting blind."Juliet leaned against the wall, her arms crossed."We still have options. If we split up, we can cover more ground and track The Seer before she unlocks the fragment’s power.""That’s reckless," Terminator X interjected, his voice sharp. "Dividing our forces will make us easier targets. The Seer knows we’re desperate—she’ll exploit that."Juliet’s eyes narrowed."And sitting here doing nothing won’t help either. Every second we waste, she’s getting stronger."Louis stopped pacing, his gaze snapping to both of them."Enough."The silence that followed was deafening. Louis pressed his hands to his temples, the Heart pulsing faintly in his chest.The visions it once provided were now fragmented, incomprehensible flashes of possible futures."A shattered fu

As the battle raged on, Terminator X noticed a cluster of generators fueling the Seer’s constructs.He turned to Louis."If I take out those generators, we’ll have a chance to turn the tide," Terminator X said.Louis hesitated."It’s too risky.""I’ve faced worse. Cover me," Terminator X said before charging toward the generators.Louis and Juliet fought their way through the enemy ranks, clearing a path for Terminator X.The mercenary-turned-cybernetic warrior reached the generators and rigged an explosive charge."Time to even the odds," Terminator X muttered as he activated the detonator.The explosion rocked the sanctuary, sending debris flying in every direction.The Seer’s constructs faltered, their forms flickering as the generators’ energy was severed.But the blast came at a cost. The ceiling above Terminator X collapsed, pinning him under a massive slab of stone."X!" Louis shouted, rushing to his side."Go!" Terminator X grunted, his face twisted in pain."The Mirror... you

Louis stumbled back, his breathing ragged as the Mirror’s surface returned to stillness.Juliet caught him, her arms steadying him as he fought to regain composure."What did you see?" she asked softly."Everything," Louis murmured, his voice hollow."Every choice I make... it leads to pain. But I can’t stop now."The leader of the Remnants stepped forward."The Heart’s influence grows stronger, Louis. Each choice will bring you closer to ruin or salvation. The Mirror has shown you what may come—but it is you who decides what will be."Terminator X placed a firm hand on Louis’s shoulder."Whatever happens, you’ve got us. We’ll face it together."Louis nodded, though his mind raced with the visions.The cost of wielding the Heart was clear, but so was his purpose.The fight against the Eternals wasn’t just about vengeance—it was about protecting those he cared for, no matter the price.As they left the stone circle, the leader of the Remnants called after them."Beware, Louis.

The darkness pressed in on Louis, suffocating and cold.The shadows taunted him, whispering his failures, his fears, and the inevitability of his fall.But this time, Louis didn’t flinch. The vision of destruction, the twisted reflection of himself—it was all a test."I’m not alone," he reminded himself, the memory of Juliet’s voice and Terminator X’s unyielding loyalty grounding him.With a guttural cry, Louis surged forward, the Heart pulsing brighter in his chest.The shadowy figure, his darker self, stumbled back, momentarily blinded."You think their faith will save you?" the doppelgänger sneered."It already has," Louis replied, slamming his fists into the ground.A wave of light burst from him, shattering the oppressive shadows.Juliet’s vision of her shattered family began to dissolve as she clung to the sound of Louis’s voice.She stood tall, staring into the broken shards around her."This guilt isn’t mine to carry," she declared."I did what I thought was right. I won’t let
