His Rejected Wife: The Billionaire’s Regret Chapter 157
Orana’s Point of ViewThe moment the doors shut and the engine started, a heavy silence settled between us again, as if we were strangers.That moment in the bathroom felt as if it had happened ages ago. He felt so distant. For a minute, I wish he could just hold me.Vaughn glanced at me from the driver’s seat. “I’d like us to talk tonight, Orana.”I leaned my head back against the headrest, closing my eyes. “Can it please wait until tomorrow?”“No,” he said, his voice quiet. “I’ve been waiting for weeks. We’re talking tonight, please.”When the car finally pulled up the long driveway of the mansion, Vaughn didn’t head for the front doors. Instead, he turned off the ignition, stepped out, and opened my door. “Walk with me,” he murmured, offering his hand.I wasn’t exhausted yet, so I decided to follow him. We walked in the opposite direction of the main house, heading toward the grand, sprawling hedge maze that bordered the river.The night air was cool, carrying the scent of fresh wa

Orana’s Point of ViewVaughn kissed me like a man who had been starved for years. His touch was electric, his hands sliding possessively up my thigh, sending a wave of heat straight through my veins. “Should I remind you of who you belong to?” Vaughn whispered in my ear. Before I could even gather my thoughts, he turned me around, pressing me flat against the cool marble of the vanity. “Vaughn.” My breath hitched as he bunched the silk of my dress around my waist, his dark eyes locking onto mine through the massive mirror, forcing me to look at him, to see the intensity of how much he wanted me.He put his leg between my legs, and using his foot, he nudged my heels, forcing me to spread my legs.It was intense, raw, and completely intoxicating—the most amazing thing I had missed about us.“Is this what you wanted? Seeing me lose control like this?” Vaughn whispered against my ear, while his hand cupped my sex, his fingers brushing over my thong.“Vaughn,” I whispered, almost out of

Vaughn’s Point of ViewMy jaw clenched so hard the bone ached. The possessive beast I kept locked in the dark clawed its way to the surface, screaming for blood. Before I could think twice, I excused myself from the senator and walked straight over to them. The asshole shifted slightly. I bet he was fixing what was bothering him between his legs.“A stór,” I said, my voice dripping with dark possessiveness. No one looks at what’s mine like that. I didn’t wait for an invitation.I wrapped my arm around her waist, pulling her back against my chest so hard her shoulder blades hit my ribs. I looked the motherfucker dead in the eye, my gaze icy. “I don’t think we’ve met.”The asshole didn’t back down. He stood tall, offering a tight, challenging smile. “Kameron Davis,” he said, extending a hand. “Orana and I went to high school together.”I stared at his hand for a beat too long before taking it, giving him a grip tight enough to make my knuckles turn white. “Vaughn Carson,” I said, my voi

Vaughn’s Point of ViewI stared at her, my heart bruising against my ribs. She looked breathtakingly beautiful in the dress I had chosen for her weeks ago, but the emotional distance between us felt like something I could never cross again.I walked past her, not waiting for her to join my side. But as I brushed past her on the stairs, her sweet scent washed over me—the intoxicating mix of caramel, marshmallow, and warm skin—and fuck, it nearly brought me to my knees. I kept my eyes trained forward, hardening my grip on the banister as we headed down to play fucking house together.Her parting words from this morning lingered in my mind, a blade scraping against my ribs. I glanced over at her while trying to be as subtle as I could. Orana sat perfectly still, her hands resting in her lap, her eyes fixed on the passing city lights.I should have told her to stay home. I should have spared us both this torture. But as my eyes swept over her, I knew the dress she was wearing made her loo

Orana’s Point of ViewTen days had passed, and Vaughn and I were still avoiding each other. When I entered a room, he would leave immediately. But today, I woke up with hot tears already spilling over my eyelashes.I moved from my bed and went to the bathroom after I found him holding me tight. I loved it, yet hated it too.I sat on the floor, clutching my phone as I stared down at the glowing screen, at the notification flashing back at me: ‘Your fertile window has begun. You are ovulating.’I pulled my knees to my chest, hugging myself as a quiet sob escaped my throat. If only I had been stronger. If only I had taken better care of my body, if I hadn’t let the stress get to me, I would have been fourteen weeks pregnant right now. We would have been planning for our baby.I covered my mouth, wiping the fresh tears from my cheeks, when the bathroom door swung open. Vaughn walked in, stopping dead in his tracks when he saw me on the floor, his eyebrows knitting and concern flashing thr

Orana’s Point of View“What happened?” I asked, my voice coming out loud as I stormed into my brother’s office.Sean looked up from his desk, his expression tightening. Before he could answer, his eyes flicked toward the other person sitting in the leather armchair across from him.My heart stopped—my husband.Shit. I had no idea Vaughn was going to be here.I narrowed my eyes, an icy shiver running down my spine as I stared at him, wondering what he was doing in my brother’s office. “What’s going on?” I demanded, looking between the two of them.Sean opened his mouth to explain, but Vaughn beat him to it.“Just a visit,” Vaughn said, his deep voice sending a painful tremor through my chest. He stood up, his hazel eyes raking over me, tracing the lines of my face and body as if he were trying to memorize every single curve, searching for any sign that I was slipping away from him.“Excuse me,” Vaughn murmured, preparing to step past me.“Let’s finish this later?” Sean called out to hi

Orana’s Point of View“How could you?” I asked, my voice breaking on the last word.You! You, of all people, worked with my father?Callahan turned first. His eyes found mine, and there was no surprise or guilt in them. just satisfaction knowing he had me where he wanted.I had thought I understood

Orana’s point of view“Can you tell me why the hell we are not going to this meeting?” Edward asked, plopping down on the armchair in front of me.I glanced at him. His thick curls looked messy, yet the outfit he wore today made him look so handsome. I smiled at myself, then lowered my gaze back to

Orana’s point of viewSpending the day with Liorah was so nice. I had missed my little girl, and I didn’t think I would enjoy spending time with her like this.We moved through shops while she held my hand the whole time, her grip small but certain, as if she knew I wouldn’t let go.She laughed at

Orana’s point of viewSomething was off. I felt the way my head throbbed, but it also didn’t smell like berries; it smelled spicy and woody.The bed was too soft and too big. But I didn’t hear the sound I woke up to yesterday.Liorah.I sat up so fast, feeling lightheaded at the speed I woke up, my
