Divorced and Pregnant My New Life with a Billionaire Drives My Ex Crazy novel Chapter 214

When Jace finally got to Wiona’s tiny bedroom at the villa, he found it look like she’d just been there. The furniture was all in place, like she hadn’t even left. But her jewelry, her clothes… they were all gone. She really hadn’t taken a single thing with her.

Jace felt the blood drain from his face. “You really don’t want anything at all… Wiona, you’re actually serious about this…”

Marian watched him muttering, and her heart sank. This family was falling apart right in front of her eyes. Maybe she should start thinking about finding a new job. She’d worked in big houses before. Landing another top-tier position shouldn’t be too hard.

While Marian’s mind wandered, Jace suddenly lost it. He swept his arm across Wiona’s vanity, knocking all her skincare bottles to the floor.

“Bring me a drink!” His voice was raw, almost desperate. “I need something strong!”

By the time Daniel came home that night with Isaac, Jace was a mess. He was sprawled on the living room couch, hugging a bottle of whiskey, talking to the air. “Wiona… why are you being so cruel to me… Wiona, come back… please, come back… Look at our family now, it’s a disaster… Is this what you wanted? Do you think you’re better than me now? Wiona… I hate you. You heartless woman…”

Jace had never let himself fall apart like this before. Not since Kellen had left, all those years ago.

Daniel took one look at his son and just lost it. He stormed over and slapped Jace, hard.

“Look at yourself! You’ve turned the company into a mess. You didn’t even show up today, and the internet is full of gossip about you and Kellen. The company’s stock is tanking. Are you only going to be satisfied when you’ve ruined the Salisbury family for good?”

The slap made Jace a little more sober, but when he glanced over and saw Isaac standing there with a tiny smile, something inside him snapped.

He shoved Daniel’s hand away. “What right do you have to tell me what to do? Didn’t you almost leave Mom for your so-called true love? Isn’t this family broken because of you? You got to chase after love, but I can’t? All I ever did was love Kellen. That’s my crime? Now you bring your secret son home and act like I’m the problem? If you and Mom hadn’t forced me to marry Wiona, I wouldn’t be in this much pain now. Why can’t you see things my way, just once? Or is Isaac the only son you’ve ever cared about, and I’m nothing?”

Daniel punched Jace right in the jaw. Jace fell hard to the floor, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth.
