Glamorous After Divorce: The CEO's Ex-Wife Is A Famous Surgeon

10 PM.

Starlight Hotel.

A slender lady, Nicole Bush, hurried into the hotel while applying her makeup. She was late for her friend’s birthday party and knew Camille would be so angry now.

She knew she was supposed to have been here earlier, but since she was busy at work, she could only come late.

Ding! Ding!

A message alert sounded.

Nicole brought out her phone; it was a message from Camille.

[ Why haven’t you arrived yet, Cole? It’s almost 11 o’clock. Don’t tell me you aren’t coming anymore?]

When Nicole saw this message, she was stunned for a moment. She smiled and thought how silly Camille was thinking she wouldn’t come anymore.

‘Silly girl’ Nicole cursed with a smile still on her face.

Ding! Ding!

Another message immediately followed. It was a message from Hayden.

“Cole, don’t tell me you aren’t keeping your promise anymore… where are you? Everyone is waiting! Please hurry up. Best, Hayden.”

Why couldn’t they allow her to be for a while?

Music was already playing when she opened the door of the hotel. Just when she entered, she was welcomed by a scream from her friends.

She shivered as Hayden hurried to her. “You finally arrive, Cole. Everyone thought she wouldn’t come. Anyways, you look pretty tonight. Are you sure this is mainly for this birthday, or do you have another motive?” Hayden was saying while both of them walked to where the other side.

“Other motive?” Nicole frowned.

“You know what I am talking about; don’t pretend. Probably for your boyfriend.”

“Don’t be silly; I told you I don’t have a boyfriend yet. Silly girl,” Nicole said.

A cake was already placed on a table, and the whole place was decorated beautifully. Camille was from a wealthy family, so she was undoubtedly meant to spend a lot of money to celebrate her birthday.

Camille placed a kiss on Nicole’s cheek.

“Happy birthday, Cam. You are looking very pretty!” Nicole said.

“Thanks, Cole. You look pretty, too.” Nicole was saying.

“Now that you have arrived, let’s begin the party,” Camille said, and everyone cheered up.

Nicole wasn’t used to this kind of party, but she had no option, seeing as it was her best friend's party.

“A glass of champagne for you!” Betty, a blonde-haired lady, gave Nicole a cup of drink.

Nicole sipped the drink from it, “It’s an alcoholic drink. Sorry, I can’t take it.”

“But why? Everyone is taking it. Don’t tell me you are going for a fruit drink.” Betty was saying.

Before Nicole could utter any more words, Betty dragged her arm and poured the drink into her mouth.

“That’s my girl. Don’t worry; after three to four cups, I am sure you will be good with it.”

Betty walked away to join the other girls dancing.

Nicole wanted to sit and watch the party, but Hayden arrived and gave her another cup of alcoholic champagne.

“You know I am not good at this.” Nicole was saying.

“Shush and just drink. Don’t make a mockery of yourself here. How can you drink fruit juice whenever someone drinks the latest champagne? Don’t worry; you will be fine with this.”

“But….”

“You can do this, Cole. Just drink it.”

Nicole finally gave up and drank the drink. The drink felt hot in her throat and tasteless.

Camille also brought her own cup of alcoholic drink. “Cheers!” she said, handing the drink to Nicole.

Knowing she could not refuse, Nicole pretended to be very good at it, took the drink, and drank it.

Camille was impressed and ordered another cup of drink. The waitress brought it.

Nicole was given the drink, and she gulped it down quickly. Camille praised her as she walked away.

Two minutes later, Nicole felt hot all over her body, and her sight felt blurry. She knew this was happening as a result of the drink she took.

Excusing herself, she hurriedly went into the lady's toilet in the hotel.

By then, the effect of the drink has taken over her. Nicole was very scared, her heart pounding and sweating all over her. She took out her phone and tried to call either of her friends to pick her up and take her home, but her vision was too blurry to see anything.

“Oh God, what will I do now?”

With a bit of strength in her, she managed to walk out.

She kept on staggering until she came to a wide-open room and went in. As she went in, she climbed into the bed and slept off.

Moments later, a man came into the room drunk too. His vision was also blurry, and he could not see her face correctly.

Noticing someone, Nicole staggered up.

“Who are you?” She asked, but her vision was too blurry to see his face.

“Relax, and I will treat you well” was all the man could say as he grabbed her waist and began to kiss her passionately as if his life depended on it.

The kiss was hard, and soon, Nicole reciprocated, holding him closer and returning the kiss.

“Woman! You are the first to peng me!” Samuel Green said as he devoured her.

Taking off her clothes, he took his off and slept with her.

“Ahh!” Nicole screamed when he went into her, yet Samuel continued with his sexual pleasure and only left her after his seed had been planted in her.

Nicole felt dizzy after the sexual encounter, and both of them lay close to each other as they slept off.

When Nicole woke up the next morning, she saw Samuel Green lying next to her. The red stain on the pristine sheet was extremely eye-catching. It described what had happened the night before.

Before Nicole could comprehend the situation, a knock on the door, followed by a group of reporters blocking the exit. They could not wait to publish the news that Samuel Green had spent the night with a mysterious woman.

The Green family was the most distinguished family in this city. They had a literary reputation and were an aristocratic family.

Old Master Green was an old-fashioned man. The noise immediately woke Samuel Green from the group of reporters. Before the hotel workers could do anything, the reporters entered the hotel and started taking intimate photos of Samuel Green and Nicole.

Samuel was shocked to see all that was going on, yet turning to his left, he recognized Nicole from the Bush family.

The Green and Bush families were good friends, and because of that, he knew Nicole from childhood.

Although Nicole knew he was in love with Riley George, how could she have slept with him behind Riley’s back?

Nicole, too, was shocked. How could the person she had a one-night stand with turn out to be Samuel Green, her childhood friend?

Yes, he was the person she had loved since childhood because he was always there for her, but when she saw that he would not reciprocate her feelings and only considered himself her big brother, she hid her feelings from him for years.

But now, what a mess!

“Samuel, I can explain. I….” Nicole tried to talk, but Samuel pushed her away from the bed, and she landed on the cold ground.

Even though the reporters were still present there, they continued to take photos and videos as the drama unfolded between Samuel and Nicole.

“I always considered you to be my younger sister, Nicole; how could you betray my trust and take advantage of my helplessness, knowing I was drunk? You could have done any other thing to me, yet you slept with me. How despicable and shameless of you. You are my enemy from now on for what you have done.” Samuel was boiling with rage as he yelled at her.

His cold attitude caused the reporters to pause, and they sensed something was not right.

Wait, wasn’t this lady the childhood friend of Samuel and the daughter of the Bush family?

What a coincidence that they were pretending to be best friends in public but were having intimate behind everyone’s back.

“Wow, this is what we call friends with benefits. Who would have thought that Samuel from the respected Green family would be sleeping with Nicole!” one of the reporters said, laughing.

This act made Samuel angry, and they felt like strangling Nicole.

“No, it’s not like that. I can explain. It’s a mistake from the start, I….” Nicole was shut immediately.

“Keep your stories to yourself, Nicole. You pretend to be pure, yet so dirty-minded inside. I can’t believe she is the same lady her father used to praise in public. Mr. Bush will be so disappointed in you. Hump! You are nothing but a shameless countryside bumpkin.” Another reporter said.

“Since Samuel Green is from a wealthy family, which lady would not want to lay in his bed? Nicole is no exception. Moreover, she is pretty and could live a luxurious life with Samuel.”

“Such a shameless act of her.”

The reporters continued criticizing them. When it became evident they planned not to leave, Samuel put on his clothes and struggled out of the hotel room.

The reporters left Nicole and rushed after him.

“How do you feel now that you have slept with your best friend Nicole?” The reporters threw questions as they rushed after Samuel.

Another reporter said, “I thought you were dating Riley George. She must be so disappointed in you. She trusted you, but you broke her trust!”

“Keep shut and get lost!” Samuel shouted as he went into his car and drove away.

Meanwhile, Nicole quickly put on her clothes and rushed out. Everyone was focused on Samuel then and did not notice when she left.

Only when she exited the hotel did she relax a bit. Now that the reporters had the evidence against her and Samuel, how would she clarify herself at home?

“I wonder what Dad must be thinking of me now!” She murmured, rubbing her head as she scampered home.

What transpired between her and Samuel was like a dream to Nicole. However, it was not a good dream.

Nicole was scared. Nevertheless, Nicole gathered up the courage to call Samuel.

“Let me clarify things for him; only he can understand me.” Nicole was saying as she dialed Samuel’s number:

Without a surprise, her call was declined. She could only timidly send a text to tell him that she had something to say and was hoping they could meet to discuss it.

When Samuel continued to decline her call, Nicole could only hurry back home. Hopefully, her family would believe her if no one else did.

Slap!

A resounding slap landed on Nicole Bush's face immediately after she stepped inside the parlor of the Bush family, which was her family.

Her dad did not even allow her to rest before pouncing on her. This was her doom!

"You've let me down. Our family has had a rough time out there for more than 10 years, and here you are, sleeping with a man. That’s very shameless of you!” Her father screamed.

“Dad, I can explain. It was a mistake,” Nicole tried to say.

“A mistake? Is that the excuse you can think of? How can I be capable of having such a shameless daughter like you? You fox! I hated the day you were born.” Her dad was furious.

“Dad I…”

Clash! A glass cup was thrown at her head. It smacked, and blood started dozing out from her head to her face.

Nicole tried to walk away to wash off the blood, but her father’s scream made her stop in her tracks.

“I will kill you if you move an inch. Stay where you are, you shameless pig!”

Nicole looked at her dad incredulously, covering the part of her aching face. "Dad, I am innocent. How can you guys be so unreasonable?"

“Is that so? You are so innocent that you end up in Samuel’s bed. I always thought you considered him your best friend; how could you stop so low to sleep with him?”

At that moment, the door of the parlor was pushed open.

Old Master Green, Samuel’s father, emerged. He was wearing an angry expression.

Nicole’s dad immediately rushed to old Master Green, wanting to explain things, but the older man pushed him aside. She went to Nicole. “How could you do this, Cole? I trusted you and thought you and Samuel were good friends. I always thought high of you, yet you disappointed me..”

Nicole felt very sad. Old Master Green had always been nice to her, and even though she knew she was not at fault, she was willing to take the blame now since everyone had already called her all sorts of names.

“It was my mistake, dad, I….” Nicole was saying.

“In that case, you will marry Samuel to stop all this rumor.” The old master said, to which Nicole was shocked.

Excitement filled Nicole’s body because she had always loved Samuel, but she felt sad when she saw the situation in which she was made to get married to him. She was aware Samuel was in love with Riley George, yet how fabulous would it be for her to get married to him?

“Sorry, sir, but I can’t get married to your son.”

Nicole thought it was unpleasant to become his wife, knowing he was In love with someone else.

“Shut up, you scoundrel! Since you tangled in this sheet and ended up in his bed, you’re already his wife. Old master Green, make the wedding preparations.” Nicole’s dad screamed.

Three days later, it was Samuel and Nicole’s wedding. Guests arrived at the beautifully decorated wedding hall and sat down. Samuel was filled with anger as he recalled the conversation he had with his dad two days ago.

Flashback:

When Samuel returned home from the hotel, he found his father already waiting for him in the parlor. He knew this was going to happen.

“You are a disgrace to the Green family. How could you have done such a despicable thing? Did you forget which son you are, yet acting ignorant? You slept with your childhood friend, and now rumors are flying everywhere in the country of your stupid act. Despite dating Riley George, how could you do this? Now, I am regretting having you as my son.”

Old Master Green was saying.

“The mistake is not from my side, Dad. It’s all Nicole’s doing. I was drunk, so she took advantage of me. You have to believe me, Dad!” Samuel tried justifying himself, yet his father would not believe a single word from him.

“A thief will not agree to be a thief. In that case, it’s best to make Nicole your wife to stop my reputation from being ruined.”

A shock was written on Samuel’s face. “What? I can’t, Dad!” He said.

“Why not? “

“I am in love with someone else, which you‘e aware. You can’t expect me to get married to Nicole, " Samuel said.

“Then, if that’s the case, I will take back the CEO position from you and disown you from this family. It’s either you get married to her or choose Riley and lose everything. And don’t think I am joking because I already informed my lawyers.”

“Dad, you can’t do this to me. Tell me you are joking?” Samuel was too shocked at the terms given to him.

“ Is it a yes or no, so I call my lawyer now?” Old Master Green brought out his phone and dialed his lawyer’s number, which happened to be their family’s lawyer.

“Alright, I will do it! I will get married to her!” Samuel said, screaming so his dad wouldn’t say anything to the lawyer because doing that would be his doom.

“Good! Get prepared, then. Three days from now, you will be getting married to her.”

End of flashback:

*****

Nicole was brought into the alter. Her wedding day was meant to be a lady’s happiest day, yet hers was a night made.

She was too scared to look at Samuel, so she shook her head while waking up to him. Only after they were to exchange kisses after their marital vows had been said did Samuel drag her head up and forcefully kiss her lips.

After the kiss, Nicole felt blood coming out from her lips, yet she could only bear the pain in silence.

When all had been done, they were pronounced husband and wife.

Later, both she and Samuel got into the Greens' family car and drove to his house.

“Welcome, Miss Green. I hope you and young Master Green will have a great married life, " the maid who came to welcome Nicole in said.

Nicole could only fake a smile as she was shown to her room. Thank the goddess; she and Samuel won’t spend the night together and share one room; otherwise, how could she face him after what transpired?

When she settled in and bathed, she was putting on a nice blue gown. The door of her room was pushed open, and Nicole perceived the smell of alcohol as Samuel emerged in.

Too scared of what he would do to her, Nicole tried to hide, but the man was too quick that he grabbed her by the neck.
