Back With The Billionaire's Heir Chapter 1 Prologue

"Naomi, I'm leaving."

His bluntness astounds me and leaves me speechless. I stand before Denzel, my soon-to-be husband, in my wedding gown. I eye him up and down and my heart sinks.

"Why aren't you dressed?" My voice comes out sharper than I intend. I feel pathetic inside but it appears as if I'm angry at him.

"We've to postpone the wedding. I have an important business to tend to." Denzel's words come out in a hurry. It feels as if he just can't wait to leave.

"What is so important that you're postponing our wedding?" My tone keeps getting harsher.

There's a lengthy pause before any of us speaks.

"I've found her."

The tears involuntarily slither down my cheeks. The ache in my chest intensifies and her name clouds in front of my eyes. Layla.

I angrily stomp towards him. I put my hand on his shoulder and turn him sideways to bring us eye to eye. My face feels hot from anger but his only shows urgency-urgency to get away from me to get to her.

"Why? What does she mean to you that you're so eager to cast me away and run to her?" I burst out.

"She means something to me!"

Anger flashes in his electric blue eyes for once. It's probably the first time I've witnessed the great Denzel Flynn losing his cool, and it breaks my heart. My next question comes out in a hushed, broken voice.

"And I don't?"

Denzel doesn't say anything. He approaches me carefully and perches a kiss on my head.

"I promise I'll make everything right when I return." He doesn't wait for a response and jogs out of the room, leaving me to my destructive thoughts

I've been planning for this day since the first time we met. But, in spite of the many preparations and planning, this day still came to suck in the end.

It's been around a year since Layla disappeared but Denzel managed to find her. In the past, when people mentioned that he loved his ex more than me, I didn't mind. Of course, I'd never imagined that he'd choose the ex over me.

And for the first time in a whole year, I doubt if he'd ever loved me. Or was I just another distraction from the pain of losing his beloved ex?

My knees buckle but before I can fall, a pair of arms wrap around me. And I instantly give in to the warmth of my best friend.

"Shh...it's okay." Marcus coos me as if I'm an infant as I cry into his warmth. He's my closest confidant.

I begin to utter incognizable sentences into his chest. He calms me down. Marcus was outside the door all this time and heard everything Denzel had said.

"I wanted to punch that smug face of his so bad, I can finally do it now without getting you mad." I snort at his comment. Marcus and Denzel have visible tension between them, neither of them likes the other. They only try to act civil for my sake.

I'm distracted for solely a moment before I remember Denzel and what just happened.

"Marcus...it hurts. It hurts so bad. He never loved me." I whine through my cries. The pain is heartbreaking, nothing painful I've been through in my life can amount to this feeling of betrayal.

Marcus brushes my hair and speaks softly. "Will you stay here and wait for him?"

I blink, wiping my cheeks. I haven't thought of that. I don't know what I want anymore since the wedding has been postponed. There is no choice for me but to wait for him.

Denzel Flynn is the sort of man no one would willingly mess with in their right mind. He's the youngest billionaire in Vancouver, someone who destroys establishments as easily as toys and has ties with the underworld.

Marcus appears flushed and calculating wordlessly. And then, he begins out of nowhere.

"What if..." Marcus trods on with his words carefully as if the wrong choice of words can lead him to jail. "You have a choice now. Would you like to leave with me, Naomi?"

He gazes down at me hopefully and I stand there dumbstruck with terror.

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband's Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn't find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn't even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father's legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn's party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara's health and managing every detail of Caden's empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I'd drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause-if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I'd forgotten.

I received a pornographic video. "Do you like this?" The man speaking in the video is my husband, Mark, whom I haven't seen for several months. He is naked, his shirt and pants scattered on the ground, thrusting forcefully on a woman whose face I can't see, her plump and round breasts bouncing vigorously. I can clearly hear the slapping sounds in the video, mixed with lustful moans and grunts. "Yes, yes, fuck me hard, baby," the woman screams ecstatically in response. "You naughty girl!" Mark stands up and flips her over, slapping her buttocks as he speaks. "Stick your ass up!" The woman giggles, turns around, sways her buttocks, and kneels on the bed. I feel like someone has poured a bucket of ice water on my head. It's bad enough that my husband is having an affair, but what's worse is that the other woman is my own sister, Bella. ************************************************************************************************************************ "I want to get a divorce, Mark," I repeated myself in case he didn't hear me the first time-even though I knew he'd heard me clearly. He stared at me with a frown before answering coldly, "It's not up to you! I'm very busy, don't waste my time with such boring topics, or try to attract my attention!" The last thing I was going to do was argue or bicker with him. "I will have the lawyer send you the divorce agreement," was all I said, as calmly as I could muster. He didn't even say another word after that and just went through the door he'd been standing in front of, slamming it harshly behind him. My eyes lingered on the knob of the door a bit absentmindedly before I pulled the wedding ring off my finger and placed it on the table. I grabbed my suitcase, which I'd already had my things packed in and headed out of the house.
