The Ex-Wife’s Billion Dollar Comeback Novel

---- Chapter 217: | Love You More ~ Soraya ~ The evening celebration was filled with music. The wedding organizers had hired the best entertainers for the night, from the band to the dancers and comedians who added laughter to the gathering. Jacob had spent so much money personalizing the venue, from the pyramid-shaped vinyl tent to the marbled aisle and the stone platform. Soraya had always wanted a wedding with a perfect view of the sky without fearing the rain, hence the decision to make it happen.

This, in addition to the cost of her gown, the entourage's attire, the flight Jacob chartered to accommodate all their guests, and the hotel accommodations, totaled hundreds of millions of dollars. Although Jacob never told her exactly how much, she knew he didn't go stingy on her. "Soraya," a familiar voice called. When she turned, she realized it was Elizabeth Sharma. She made her way to the Sharma couple's table. Rohan was also there. Rohan offered a polite smile, but his eyes reflected a different kind of emotion.

Recalling how he had made his drunken confession, Soraya felt slightly uncomfortable. "Mrs. Sharma, again, thank you so much for coming," Soraya said. "Of course. You were like a daughter to us, and we love you regardless of who you marry," Elizabeth said, getting up to embrace Soraya. Then she handed her an envelope and said, " This is our gift to you and Jacob. We asked ahead and knew ---- you were holding off your honeymoon because of the twins.

But when the babies are a few months older, maybe you can take them on this trip." Soraya opened the envelope and saw that it was a reservation certificate for a family vacation to the Maldives. It was valid for a year, so they had more than enough time to decide when to take it. She smiled because she loved the beach, and so did Angela. " Thank you, Elizabeth." Arvind gracefully rose and shook Soraya's hand. He said, " Congratulations. For as long as you are happy, we are happy too.

| just pray that Rohan will find another beautiful woman like you, so he can get over you." "Oh, Arvind!" Elizabeth scolded her husband, chuckling. Rohan only smiled. In the background, the band played a romantic tune, and it happened to be Elizabeth's favorite. She invited her husband to dance, leaving Rohan alone at the table. Soraya sat next to him and asked, "How is your research institute?" Rohan smiled. "We're developing a new kind of mechanical heart, and we just received fifty billion dollars in funding. It's doing perfectly well." "Congratulations on NeuroSentinel again.

It reached its highest sales last month. Ten billion. That's crazy,' Rohan said. "Your profit shares at Aegis Core Systems have now reached a hundred million, but you haven't collected it." Soraya smiled back. "It's nothing compared to your fifty billion dollars in funding." A laugh escaped Rohan's lips. He really was such a handsome ---- fellow. Just then, Soraya's eyes landed on her friend Lyra. She was talking to Calum. What for? An idea suddenly crept into her head. Wouldn't it be nice if Lyra ended up with Rohan? Rohan was such a fine gentleman.

He was smart, refined, and had a bright future ahead. She excused herself and headed in her friend's direction. What she thought was a normal conversation between Calum and Lyra turned out to be the opposite. Her best friend was berating Calum! Lyra was smiling, but her words were curt. "She used to cry herself to sleep for you, jerk! You deserve every bit of your misery!" "Lyra! Stop that," Soraya scolded. She looked at Calum's red face and quickly grabbed her friend's arm. "Let me introduce you to someone." Soraya practically dragged Lyra away and sat her next to Rohan.

"I know you two know each other, but Rohan, let me formally introduce Lyra Hayes. She's the best in digital marketing. She is smart, beautiful, and very much available!" Lyra snapped her head toward her, but Soraya ignored her friend's reaction and just left! She returned to Calum's side. Seeing how guilty he looked, she said, "Sorry about Lyra." Calum gulped down a glass of champagne. He forced a smile and replied, "| suppose she has every right." "Thank you for coming, Calum, and thank you for bringing Sage," she said before leaving him to reflect on his own.

Clearly, Lyra had gotten to him. ---- The program was done, but the party was far from over. After heading over to where Jacob's old college friends were, he invited her for a dance. Of course, they had already shared their couple's dance earlier, but Soraya supposed this one was better. It was unguarded. They danced to soft romantic music, surrounded by other couples in the crowd. Jacob pulled her closer, grabbed her hand, and kissed her knuckles. "You know what my college friends said? I'm a lucky man to marry such a beautiful woman. They're all jealous of me.

Well, the whole city of Cedar Heights and Belridge was probably jealous of her too, but she decided to keep that to herself. She laughed and said, "I'm lucky to have you too." Jacob and Soraya embraced tightly, her head resting on his chest as they moved to the rhythm. Soraya listened to Jacob's heartbeat. It was steady and so reassuring. Even in that silence, it was more than enough for Soraya to know how much her husband loved her. Still, when the music died, she looked up at him and smiled. "Thank you for the beautiful wedding, honey. | love you so much.

| love you more than words can say." "And | love you more," he said, leaning down and sealing her lips with a kiss. In front of the dancing crowd and beneath the starlit sky, Soraya and Jacob shared the most heartwarming kiss, officially, as Mr. and Mrs. Steel some ~ Elena Dalton ~ ---- Meanwhile, in New Avenport. After selling most of their shares to Azora Real Estate LLC, the Dalton family received a substantial payout, thirty million dollars each for her family and her uncle.

With their accounts flush and their liquidity restored, the Daltons decided it was the perfect time to indulge in a month- long vacation. They were at the airport, waiting for their flight, when Elena suddenly saw a news feed on her phone. It read: [Jacob Steel, the Wealthiest Man in Belridge, Married!] Unfortunately, she refreshed the page, and when she went back to look for it again, the news was gone! "Arrggh!" Elena grunted. "Who is this lucky bitch who got to marry Jacob Steel?" It would have been a dream to be Mrs. Steel, but Jacob was too unreachable! "Never mind," she muttered.

"It doesn't matter. I'll find my own Jacob Steel one day."
