FROM DIVORCED TO BILLIONAIRE HEIR CHAPTER 34
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

The entire ceremony fell silent with Louis’s wordsWhat the fuck?This nobody made a random call to who-knows-whom and said the wedding was cancelled?Who did he think he was?Just then, Vivian burst into a loud laugh."Oh my God! You’re really hilarious! You think you can simply cancel it? Who do you think you are?" Vivian's voice rose hysterically."Have you lost your mind?"“Exactly! Does he think he’s the island owner or something?”"You have ten minutes," Louis continued calmly. "After that, security will escort you out.""You can't—" Ben started."I can," Louis cut him off. Vivian's mouth opened and closed like a fish out of water.She didn’t understand why Louis was this bold."This is impossible! You're nothing! A nobody!"The gathered crowd fell into stunned silence as Louis thumbed another number on his phone."Security?" he spoke clearly. "Please begin the evacuation procedures. Anyone not on the approved list needs to leave within the hour."Juliet watched in amazement

"I propose we teach our uninvited guest a lesson about respect. “Anyone who helps ensure this... person," he spat the word like poison."... never works in Apple City again will have the full support of the Gutsby Family.""The Gutsby Family?" several voices murmured with interest. The name carried weight, and everyone knew it."That's right," Ben continued, straightening his designer suit. "As you all know, my family's influence runs deep in this city. Anyone who stands with me today won't regret it. The Gutsby Family never forgets its friends."Vivian clutched Ben's arm, her diamond bracelet catching the light. "Darling, you're too kind offering help to these people just to deal with this... nobody."She shot Louis a venomous look."Though he certainly deserves whatever's coming to him.""Oh, honey," Ben kissed her cheek, "anything for you. And besides, ..." He turned back to the crowd, "do you know where we are? This is Neckor Island's premier wedding venue. Do you think just

The elegant wedding hall buzzed with activity as prominent figures rose from their seats, each eager to curry favor with the Gutsby family."The Western Bank of Apple City stands with you, Ben!" Marcus Thompson, the bank's president, declared, adjusting his gold cufflinks. "This nobody won't be able to open so much as a savings account in this city.""Hamilton Industries will ensure he never sets foot in any tech company in Apple City." Sarah Hamilton announced, her diamond necklace glinting under the chandeliers.This is exactly the influence I needed to demonstrate, Ben thought smugly, watching the power players align themselves one by one."My media conglomerate will make sure everyone knows what a pathetic troublemaker he is," shouted Richard Chen, CEO of Chen Media Group."He'll be toxic to any employer in the country!"Victoria, beaming with pride, clutched her champagne glass."Oh, Ben darling, just look at how everyone respects you! This is exactly why you're perfect for my

Finally, Ben thought triumphantly, now everyone will see what real power looks like."Look who's about to get what's coming to them," Vivian gloated, tossing her perfectly styled hair. "Even Terminator X's personal guards know you need to be dealt with!"The guests began whispering excitedly: "Those uniforms – they're definitely the elite squad!" "Terminator X must have heard the commotion!" "This nobody is really done for now!""Well, well," Ben sneered at Louis."Not so confident now, are you? When Terminator X's own security force shows up to handle troublemakers like you—"The golden-armored troops continued their advance into the hall, their synchronized footsteps echoing against the marble floors."Serves him right!" Victoria declared loudly. "Let's see how that smug attitude holds up against Terminator X's elite guards!""Should we start taking bets on how fast they'll throw him out?" someone called from the crowd, earning cruel laughter.The wedding hall buzzed with exci

Vivian screeched, her carefully crafted image crumbling."He's nobody! He's nothing! Ben, tell them!"But Ben stood frozen, his mouth opening and closing without sound, as the reality of his situation began to dawn on him.Even if Louis was indeed a nobody, but now, given Terminator X’s attitude, it already meant a lot.Even if he’d love to humiliate Louis, he didn’t dare offend Terminator X."This is preposterous!" Victoria found her voice."That man arrived in cheap clothes! He can't possibly be—""Enough!" Terminator X's voice boomed through the hall."One more word of disrespect toward Master Kindsor, and you'll all learn the true meaning of consequences."The golden-armored troops shifted subtly, their hands moving closer to their weapons, causing several guests to step back in fear.The opulent wedding hall fell into a stunned silence, broken only by the nervous shuffling of feet against marble floors. What could be the relationship between Terminator X and this ... ordinary

Louis finally spoke, his calm voice somehow carrying over the chaos. "Well, this is quite a different tune from a few minutes ago, isn't it?"The crowd fell silent again, hanging on his every word.But Louis simply checked his watch and smiled faintly at the assembled gathering of once-proud elites.Now reduced to trembling shadows of their former selves.The grand wedding hall, which had moments ago been filled with threats and mockery.Now held only the sound of Ben's ragged breathing as he sat slumped in his chair, cold sweat darkening his expensive suit.This can't be happening, Vivian's thoughts raced frantically. The man I rejected... the one I looked down on... was THIS close to Terminator X?! Impossible!Her perfectly manicured hands trembled as she forced a bright, desperate smile. "Terminator X, sir," she attempted to steady her voice, "you must be here for our wedding, right? This is all an elaborate surprise before presenting your blessing?"The silence that followed w

The chamber fell silent as The Seer’s soldiers halted their advance, forming a protective circle around her.She stepped forward with an air of supreme confidence, her piercing gaze fixed on Louis.Her voice, cold and commanding, echoed through the vast sanctuary."Enough of this pointless struggle," she said."You’re outnumbered, outmatched, and out of time. Let’s end this charade, shall we?"Louis’s chest heaved as he struggled to steady his breathing.The glow of his hands flickered weakly, a sign of his waning strength.He stepped forward, placing himself between The Seer and the obelisk.“You don’t get to decide when this ends,” Louis spat, his voice trembling with defiance.The Seer’s smirk widened.“Oh, but I do. You see, Louis, I’ve already won. You just don’t know it yet.”The Seer’s tone softened as she began circling him, her words laced with a dangerous allure.“You and I are not so different,” she said.“I, too, once fought to protect the balance. I was like your mother,

The entrance to The Nexus was a towering stone gate carved into the mountainside, its surface etched with symbols that pulsed faintly in the dim light.The air around it seemed charged with an otherworldly energy, and Louis could feel the pull of the Heart growing stronger.“We’re here,” Juliet whispered, her voice tinged with awe.Terminator X stepped forward, examining the intricate carvings.“This place isn’t just ancient—it’s alive. The Eternals built it to protect their secrets.”Louis placed his hand on the gate, and the symbols lit up in response.The massive stone doors rumbled as they slid open, revealing a staircase spiraling downward into darkness.“Let’s move,” he said, his tone resolute.“Whatever’s down there, we need to find it before The Seer does.”The staircase opened into a vast underground sanctuary, its cavernous halls illuminated by floating orbs of light.Massive pillars stretched toward the ceiling, their surfaces covered in glowing inscriptions that shifted an

The hideout was quiet except for the soft rustle of maps being unfolded.Louis traced his fingers over the aged parchment, his brow furrowed in concentration.The maps and artifacts recovered from the Kindsor estate were a maze of cryptic symbols and fragmented text.“This marking,” Louis said, pointing to an intricate rune near the center of the map.“It matches the glyphs we saw in the ruins outside Velron. It has to be connected to The Nexus.”Juliet leaned over his shoulder, studying the map.“But look at these coordinates. They lead to the base of the Umbra Peaks. That region is nothing but treacherous cliffs and ancient wards.”“Exactly why it makes sense,” Terminator X chimed in, his arms crossed.“The Eternals wouldn’t make their sanctuary easy to find. It’s meant to keep out anyone unworthy.”Louis nodded, though his expression was grim. “Then we’ll need to be ready for anything.”The group’s journey through the desolate wastelands brought them to a crumbling outpost, its st

The alarms blared louder as Louis worked feverishly to disable the restraints binding Terminator X.His fingers moved with desperate precision, beads of sweat dripping down his face.“Almost there,” Louis muttered under his breath.Terminator X glanced at the approaching guards.“You better hurry, kid. We’re out of time.”The door to the high-security wing burst open, and a squad of soldiers poured in, their movements unnaturally swift and coordinated.Their eyes glowed with a faint, eerie light, and a faint aura of energy surrounded them.“What the hell are those?” Louis asked, his voice tinged with fear.“Genetically enhanced soldiers,” Terminator X growled.“The Seer’s latest playthings.”Juliet’s voice crackled in Louis’s ear.“Louis, I’m almost to your location. Hold on!”The restraints finally clicked open, and Terminator X stood, his muscles flexing despite the toll of his captivity.“Get ready,” he said, his voice grim.“They won’t go down easily.”The first soldier lunged, a

The cold, metallic hum of the high-security prison reverberated through its halls.Terminator X sat in a reinforced chair, his arms and legs bound with glowing restraints that pulsed faintly with energy, neutralizing his strength.Opposite him, a hologram of The Seer flickered to life.Her piercing gaze scanned him, the edges of her lips curling into a satisfied smirk.“You’ve been quite the thorn in my side,” she said, her tone dripping with mockery.“But even thorns have their uses.”“I won’t tell you anything,” Terminator X spat, his voice unwavering.The Seer chuckled softly. “I’m not asking for your permission, Terminator.Your defiance amuses me, but it won’t last.” She gestured, and the restraints tightened, eliciting a sharp grunt from him.“Now, tell me about the shard.”Terminator X met her gaze, his voice cold.“Go to hell.”The Seer’s smirk faltered.“You’re stubborn, I’ll give you that. But even the strongest will break when the stakes are high enough.”She leaned forward

Louis's hands trembled as he worked feverishly at the control panel.Sparks flew, and warning lights flared, casting the room in an ominous red glow."Louis, we don’t have time!" Juliet yelled over the chaos, her voice sharp with urgency as she deflected another wave of guards with precise, calculated strikes.Terminator X stood beside her, firing shot after shot, keeping the advancing forces at bay."I know!" Louis shouted back, his voice cracking under the strain."But if I rush this, we all go up in flames!"The Seer’s forces were relentless.Drones buzzed into the room, their weapons locking onto the group.Terminator X fired at them with deadly precision, but for every one he destroyed, another seemed to take its place.“This isn’t sustainable!” Terminator X growled.“Louis, finish it!”Louis wiped the sweat from his brow, his heart pounding.The core of the cannon pulsed dangerously, and he could feel its energy vibrating through the floor."I'm almost there... just a few more—"

The desert winds howled as the group crouched low behind a rocky outcrop, the massive domed structure of The Seer’s weapon testing facility looming ahead.The structure shimmered under the moonlight, surrounded by patrol drones and armed guards.“Everyone knows the plan?” Terminator X’s voice was firm, his sharp eyes scanning their surroundings.“Get in, find the blueprints, and disable the weapon,” Juliet said, her tone unwavering.“Simple enough.”Louis, however, looked less confident. “Except for the part where one wrong move blows us all to pieces.”Juliet placed a reassuring hand on his shoulder.“Stay focused. I’ll be here if things get out of hand.”“Enough chatter,” Terminator X interrupted.“We move now. Stick to your roles.”The group slipped through the shadows, avoiding detection with Terminator X’s meticulous planning.A small opening in the facility’s vent system served as their entry point.Crawling through narrow ducts wasn’t ideal, but it was the safest route.“Julie

Terminator X, their intel specialist, stood at the center of the room, his eyes glued to the holographic display.The rest of the team, including Louis and Juliet, circled around him, waiting for the latest update.“So, what’s the news?” Louis asked, his voice low but sharp.Terminator X didn’t turn away from the display but nodded slightly.“We’ve just intercepted a transmission from The Seer’s faction. They’re developing a new weapon—an energy cannon. It’s powered by the remnants of the Mirror.”Juliet’s brow furrowed.“The Mirror? But that’s—”“Yeah,” Terminator X cut her off.“It’s dangerous, and they’ve somehow managed to harness its power. The cannon is aimed straight at Apple City. If it’s what I think it is, we’re in serious trouble.”Louis crossed his arms, his jaw tightening. “How serious?”“The cannon’s power could rival the Heart itself,” Edward’s weak voice called from the corner.The group turned to see him sitting in a chair, looking far from his usual self.He was rec

Juliet placed a hand on his shoulder, her grip firm despite her weakened state.“She sacrificed a lot to protect you, Louis. She didn’t want you burdened by her past.”Louis’s jaw tightened.“But now it’s my burden. And I won’t let her sacrifices be in vain.”Before Juliet could respond, a low rumble shook the chamber.Dust and debris rained down from the ceiling.“What was that?” she asked, alarmed.Louis’s eyes darted around the room.“The water reservoir above us—it must be leaking. We need to get out of here now.”Another tremor rocked the ground, and the sound of rushing water echoed through the tunnels.“Go,” Louis urged, grabbing Juliet’s arm to steady her.“I’ll hold the water back.”“Don’t be ridiculous,” she snapped, wincing as she moved.“We both get out, or neither of us does.”“Juliet, you’re injured!”“And you’re not leaving me behind,” she shot back, her tone brooking no argument. “Now move!”Together, they raced through the narrow corridors, the sound of water growing
