Mr. Billionaire Boundless Love Novel Cover

Mr. Billionaire Boundless Love

Marry a billionaire after a one-night stand: “We have agreed to leave each other to our own business. I hope you have a good reason for coming here.” “Yes, we agreed to that, but not to a sexless marriage. Sex is essential for a lasting marriage.” Selene chuckled. Clint also smiled, then sneered. “Do you like sex without love? Did you marry me because you enjoyed the sex that much?” Selene frowned, aware of the implications of his words. But she did not know why he said it. And the unopened file named “HER” appeared in her mind again. “I believe it’s important for a healthy relationship.” “Only the sex?” “I thought we agreed on it.” “Nonsense!” Clint exploded with anger. After thinking for a while, Selene replied, “Okay, sorry for disturbing you. I’m going to bed.” Before she went back to the bedroom and lay on the bed, Clint suddenly caught up with her and pushed her onto the bed. “What are you doing?!” Selene was frightened. Clint was violently tearing Selene’s home dress and groaning. “Fulfilling my obligation as a husband!”

Chapter 1

To get back at her cheating boyfriend, Selene seduced and married his hot boss. However--

Selene would never have thought that she would end up going to court twice in a single year someday. And she also could never have expected that it would be for divorce.

Yes, today, she came to the court to file for divorce for a second time.

The same thing happened as the first time she had come to court. She still came by herself without a lawyer or friends. Clint Denovan, the man she was divorcing, was not present. Instead, his lawyer, Matthew Ronald, was in attendance.

Selene had researched the lawyer’s background and found that the lawyer was famous for divorce lawsuits in this city. To be more specific, he only worked with divorce lawsuits for rich businessmen and successfully helped his clients get divorced from their first wives without any property damage.

All in all, this lawyer was notorious in his field.

At the sight of the lawyer, she thought that her husband must have hired him to protect his wealth, expecting her to fight over his huge property.

Then she looked carefully at the documents in front of her. The only divorce was mentioned, and it clearly read that she would not get any of his assets.

Also, to her surprise, the reason why Clint Denovan had hired the lawyer was to persuade the judge to disallow their divorce.

Selene sat at the court and reminded herself of the scene that had happened there several months ago. At that time, the lawyer had emotionally and reasonably read out words written by his client in an attempt to save their marriage.

His reasonable logic and sincere words seemingly touched the judge, who decisively disallowed their divorce. He asked Selene to get along with her husband and wished them a happy and long-lasting marriage.

It took Selene a long time to realize what really happened between her and Clint. She was aware that a long-lasting marriage would never happen between them.

So, she went to court again to get a divorce.

As she went there for a second time, she had pondered a great deal of time about their divorce. Nowadays, divorce is very common in their city, and the rate of divorce has soared to 30%. Because of this, she believed that what she was dealing with was just a small and common case.

Of course, she also knew that it was common among such cases that couples would successfully get divorced on their second visit to the court, which would make that outcome a certainty for herself as well. Usually, the court would refuse requests for divorce for couples on their first visit.

Therefore, Selene felt very confident that she would successfully divorce Clint this time.

Though the lawyer Matthew had a silver tongue and cited many examples to persuade the judge that the couple should not get divorced, when he read the words written by her husband, Selene thought it was ridiculous for the defendant’s words to be exactly the same as what he had read before.

The defense was that Clint considered the marriage holy, and he had profound respect for it and his wife. Clint maintained that the reason for their inharmonious relationship was that they had just got married in a flash and had different personalities, and he would like to work on it together with Selene to keep their marriage.

At first, Selene was touched by her husband’s legal defense and, for a brief moment, believed that it was an accurate representation of his thoughts on the matter. But this time, she realized that they were most likely written by the lawyer or his assistant.

And the judge seemingly had a similar opinion.

The judge knew that there was no reason to keep them as a couple anymore, as the woman had filed for divorce twice in a year and had shown him evidence that they had been separated for several months. Moreover, she did not ask for alimony.

As the divorce lawsuit involved no property controversy, it was very easy to put it to an end.

Selene felt that now that she was divorced, her life was again on the right track.

Matthew Ronald, the lawyer, had also predicted the result this time, and when he heard the judge’s sentence, he smiled embarrassedly and shrugged toward Selene, who was expressionless.

Selene then left the court, and the lawyer followed.

When she arrived at the gate, Matthew quickened his pace and caught up with Selene.

“Mr. Denovan really doesn’t want to divorce.”

“Really?” Selene raised her eyebrows. She looked gorgeous. “Why? Is it because the marriage is ‘holy’ to him?” She retorted coldly.

Matthew worked as a proficient lawyer who had dealt with lots of cases. But this was the first time he had met a woman who left such a deep impression on him. She seemed very sensible, indifferent, and distant but not greedy at all. She was very mysterious.

Her ex-husband was his client. Though the ex-couples seemed very different from each other at first glance, they were similar to some degree. The client had asked the lawyer to help them keep their marriage, but he felt quite indifferent about this case.

Matthew answered back with a slight smile, “I’m just doing my job. Also, you should be more aware of what he thinks of his wife, oh, no, ex-wife.”

Selene pursed her lips and raised her chin. She did not know her ex-husband at all, and she could even regard him as a stranger to her as they had only met several times.

Then Matthew took two pages from his file package. “Selene, as you did not sign a prenuptial agreement with Mr. Denovan, and you do not require any property from him after the divorce, so Mr. Denovan has prepared an agreement to compensate you. You can check it, and if you agree with it, please sign your name. I will take care of the arrangements.”

Selene felt somewhat shocked. She took and glanced at the agreement, then laughed. “I didn’t know he’s so generous.”

I sat at a table for two in the center of Le Coucou, clutching a gift box that had cost me two months of savings. It was our three-year anniversary, and I was waiting for Gavin to finally ask the big question. But when the heavy oak doors opened, Gavin didn't walk toward me with a ring. He walked in with a polished blonde heiress tucked under his arm, her hand resting protectively over a small baby bump. "This is Tiffany Stone. My fiancée," he said, his voice devoid of any warmth. He didn't apologize for being late or for the three years we'd spent together. Instead, he pulled out a checkbook, scribbled a number, and slid a ten-thousand-dollar check across the white tablecloth. "Consider it severance for your time," he added, as Tiffany mocked my cheap drugstore dress. "Don't contact me again. Tiffany doesn't need the stress." I was the entertainment for the entire restaurant—the pathetic girl dumped for a better model.

But as I watched my new husband navigate his penthouse, I noticed his "paralyzed" legs tense with a strength that shouldn't exist.
