Grandma had taken a liking to Ivory just like how Ivory had taken a liking to her. They bonded quickly, but over the past few months, they had barely gotten time to see one another.But now she was sick? And wanted to see them?Ivory’s frown deepened.She really wasn’t a fan of staying in this marriage any longer than necessary, it gave Gadreel power to interfere in certain aspects of her life.But, if Gabriella was ill and wished to see her, then she couldn’t ignore her.Sighing, she relented.“Alright.”At the sound of her voice, Gadreel turned and narrowed his eyes at her. Ivory was avoiding his gaze and said nothing more throughout the remnant of the drive.When they arrived at the family Vila, Ivory immediately went to see Gabriella.“Ivy, my child,” Gabriella, although old, looked youthful. Her skin was white and her hair was gray, but her beauty was undeniable.She smiled brightly at the sight of Ivory. “You look well. I’ve missed you this past few months. Why haven’t you visit

Ivory frowned.“You what?” Drying her hand, she turned to face her phone, flinching ever so slightly when she spotted Gadreel by the kitchen entrance.His gaze was fixed on her phone, dark and piercing, not giving her an idea on just how much he had heard.Then it flickered to her and for a second, Ivory could have sworn her breath seized.She blinked again, then avoided his gaze, paying more attention to her phone than him.“What…what did you say, Em?” She asked, walking towards her phone, scooping it up from the counter and removing it from speaker phone.“I’ve got you five hot bachelors! Ready to mix and mingle at any moment. You up? Please tell me you’re up.”For some reason, she looked at Gadreel. He was watching her, unmoving and unreadable as always.It was such a bore and she couldn’t help but wonder why she had put up with this type of an attitude from him.Well, luckily, she didn’t have to put up with it no more.“Yes, I’ll be there, just send me an address.”“Yess! Alright,

Ivory, although she didn’t look like it, was nervous. Sure, she wasn’t a Mary Sue, but that didn’t mean she wasn’t a fucking Virgin!And this was a sure reaction from every and any Virgin or non virgin at that, who happens to see a half naked Gadreel.His abs, chest and that V-line, were all like a death trap!A tempting death trap!Sure, she had seen them a couple of times while cleaning his body when he was in a coma, but now…now, it was clear that those gym sessions after waking up weren’t for show.They had given him an even more defined and well toned body than the one he had before.A body that she was sure did not belong to a man who didn’t know how to please a lady in bed, much to the dismay of her prior judgement.Ivory frowned and dismissed her thoughts before they roamed too much.She didn’t need those type of thoughts in her mind right now, rather, she was in need of blowing of some serious steam.Reaching for her phone, she texted Emma, letting her know that they should m

The race started off with a bang. Both the cars sped, neck to neck at first until the Arrogant driver took the lead, but Ivory wasn’t about to lose.She had the experience, she knew what she was doing. Besides, this wasn’t her first time.Granted, the driver was skilled. But compared to her, he was an amateur and Ivory planned on showing him just how much.She maneuvered the course, drifting at every turn and avoiding every obstacle, all the while keeping a smile on her lips.She was entertained, unlike her boring daily life so far. Emma could see this, at the same time, she could see her life flashing before her eyes.Ivory had driven fast the first time, but because it was just as warm up and she wasn’t against someone who pushed her to perform better, she had driven slower than the current time.Now, with a competitor, the race had become heated and their opponent passed them for the third time.“Don’t worry,” Almost as if sensing the anxious fear within Emma, Ivory spoke, keeping

However, as soon as that feeling crossed her mind, she dismissed it. Everyone has their own share of stories, and although hers wasn’t pleasant, she could handle it and move on, rather than comparing it with others and wishing things were different.“Ah, you can drop me off here, Ivy,” Emma spoke, interrupting Ivory’s train of thoughts.They had reached the front of the house.“Are you sure, I can just-““No need,” Emma said, shaking her head. “I’ll walk. My place is close by.”Ivory nodded.“Thanks, for tonight.” She said and Emma smiled.“Anytime.”They hugged, then Emma stepped out. Ivory waved her goodbye and once she was out of sight, the driver asked.“Where to Miss?”Ivory hesitated. She wanted at this very moment to come down and go with Emma or find a suitable hotel around to rent, but couldn’t as she had promised Gabriella that she’d be spending the night and accompany her for breakfast the following day.A stupid decision, now that she thought about it. But could she really

Gadreel’s lip were hot and soft against her own, ravaging and claiming her lips with a hunger Ivory never knew existed.Before said hunger could consume her, Ivory violently shoved Gadreel away by his chest and glared at him.“What the hell is wrong with you?” She demanded. “Are you crazy, what makes you think you can do this?”“I am your husband,” Gadreel took a step forward, having a defensive edge to his demeanor. “Its my right to do this! If you can fool around with other men, why not me?”She…fool around with other men?Ivory scoffed. At this point she didn’t even have the strength to explain or debunk Gadreel useless notions. He had lost the right to that privilege.“Your delusional.” She said. “And if you think I’m gonna explain myself to you, then you better get yourself checked into a mental asylum because last I checked,” She kept her gaze focused on his face while two of her fingers tapped her wrist. “We’re less than twenty four hours away from being divorced. I don’t owe y

The following day, despite what has happened the night before, Gadreel woke up to an empty bedside.The pillow, the sheet, the whole mattress were empty and cold, suggesting that the occupant had left quite a while ago.Gadreel found that this outcome immediately soured his mood. He frowned, but made no effort whatsoever to get up from the bed and chase after her.Rather, his mind replayed what had happened the previous mind. All the details were fresh, enticing and almost unbelievable. But amongst them all, one key detail stuck to the front of Gadreel’s mind, and that detail being the fact that Ivory had been a Virgin.He had seen her bleed yesterday and felt the tightness that only a Virgin was said to give.And despite knowing this, he has been a bit rough and…impulsive, I dear say.Massaging his temple, he sighed. Perhaps he needed to…apologize for those two things.He glanced at the side of the bed again and finally stood up. Silently, he looked around, wondering where she was. S

Clenching his jaw, Gadreel didn’t immediately sign the papers, in fact, he didn’t want to. But under the prying eyes present and his reputation as a business man who stood by his words, he had no choice but to follow through.Picking up the pen, he signed his name and the judge wasted no time in approving the documents.Walking out of the hall, Gadreel couldn’t help but run his hand through his hair, a gesture he only did when he felt frustrated.And right now, he was indeed frustrated, for some reason, the divorce didn’t give him the relief he had anticipated.The same however, couldn’t be said for Ivory.One glance in her direction and he could tell that she was relieved. It showed on her face, the way she smiled down at the divorce certificate and in the way she drew in the fresh morning air.The sight Irked Gadreel, but then, his eyes caught sight of one of the hickey just below her jaw and he sighed.Perhaps he has gone a bit overboard last night. He should say something about th

“I heard Mr. Ødegaar just got a divorce, but from the looks of it, he looks like a happy man. Seems his heart truly laid with her.” Someone said.“Ah, I envy Evangeline, but I also know she’s the perfect fit for Mr. Ødegaar. An A-lister actress and the city’s top billionaire. What a perfect fit!” Another squealed.“I’m sure they’re together, after all, Mr. Ødegaar has never brought anyone to these types of events. Not even his so called ex wife. If I were her, I would be ashamed.” Added another.This one has caught Gadreel’s attention and although his expression remained neutral, the corners of his eyes twitched.Ashamed? Those words seemed to bother him for some reason as Ivory’s face- against his will- flashed in his mind.Evangeline however, was the least but bothered. The more she listened to them, the more Evangeline knew her worth in Gadreel’s life.And she could have carried on listening and feeling this way, if not for the sudden shift in top.“Huh, who’s she?” Someone asked a

“Wow Ivy,” Emma gushed, looking at the dress she had adorned for the auction event. “You look stunning.”“You think so?” Ivory inquired, standing in front of the mirror and taking in her reflection.For the auction, she had chosen to wear something subtle, not too shouting, at the same time, enough to leave an impression and draw the attention of those she wanted.It was a sleeveless black jumpsuit that had a deep V-neck, exposing just enough skin to be considered classy. Her hair, safe for a few strands of baby hair that defined the edges of her face, was tied up in a messy bun, and a black ribbon wrapped around the base.To finish her look, a pair of diamond earrings and a bracelet completed the outfit.“Ivy, I can’t even recognize you anymore.” Emma exclaimed, taking in the beauty that was her friend. “You look stunning, gorgeous, elegant, all these words are just not enough and I’m sure those bastards are going to be drooling.”Ivory chuckled at this. Just then, she got a text mes
After Divorce, I Return As CEO Chapter 40 Was This His Payback?
Ivory nearly snatched the tablet from Camilla’s hands. With a single glance at the content, it was clear that Ødexa had indeed intercepted their recent collaboration.Although the deal hasn’t been finalized, it was clear from the picture of a representative of Heinrich Cooperation and one of Ødexa, shaking hands, that Heinrich Cooperation was considering partnering with Ødexa.And she knew this was Gadreel’s doing. But why, she couldn’t place her mind on.Was this just another business move of his? Or was this a payback for the fact that she had refused the acquisition? Or…was it because he had discovered her identity?Her dream flashed in her mind once again and Ivory felt a sense of paranoia begin to creep up.She was brought out of her thoughts by Camilla.“Boss, what should we do?”Ivory shook her head and sighed. “I’ll handle this,” She muttered and handed the tablet back. “Go on and carry out the rest of your tasks. I’ll inform you once the situation has been resolved."“Yes, bo
After Divorce, I Return As CEO Chapter 39 A Nightmare Comes True.
The surgery had taken more of a toll on Ivory than she had expected. Coupled with the event that has happened earlier, she was exhausted.The moment she got back home, she sank into the comfort of her bed, not bothering to take a well needed shower, and was asleep in an instant.The moment she closed her eyes, she opened them to find herself in a place she never thought her mind would bring her back to.The Garden in her very first family house. In front of her was a younger version of herself, crying after she had fallen down and scrapped her knee and in front of that younger version, trying to comfort her, was a young version of Gadreel.‘Ah, I remember this day.’ Ivory thought with a frown, yet her eyes softened as she watched the memory play out.It had been a little while after she and Gadreel had become friends. His mother has come over to visit hers and while the adults talked, Ivory and Gadreel went to play in the Garden.The happened to encounter a cat and she tried chasing a

The surgery lasted a total of 5 hours, but at last, the affected Valves in Evangeline’s heart had been repaired and her condition stabilized.Looking down at her first successful surgery in years, Ivory knew she should have felt pride and joy, but at this moment, the only thing she felt was a tinge of regret.Perhaps she should have left Evangeline to die. All the pain and suffering she had been through in life was all because of Evangeline.Then, wouldn’t that mean that if she had died, everything would have gone back to the way it has been before she and her mother came along?No, Ivory shook the thought off. Nothing can ever be the same, even if Evangeline were to die.“Good Job, V.” Kael, clasping her shoulder, praised.Ivory offered him a half hearted and tired smile. “Yeah, you too.” She glanced back at Evangeline for a few seconds before speaking again. “I’m gonna head out now…”Kael nodded. “Sure, you go on ahead, I’ll reach out to you once everything’s wrapped up here.”Ivory

Gadreel frowned at the doctor’s words. Taking a step forward, he seemed to totally forget about the conversation he was having with Ivory.“What do you mean by that? Earlier, you said she was stable, so why is she suddenly in danger?” He questioned.“Ms. Remington was indeed stable, but her heart suffered a sudden attack and for someone who suffers from a heart condition like Coronary Artery Disease, this could be fatal. That’s why I urge, the sooner we operate on her, the better.”Coronary Artery Disease? Ivory couldn’t help but frown at the doctor’s diagnosis.Evangeline doesn’t suffer from CAD, as most call it, but rather...“What she suffers from is Ischemic Heart Disease, IHD. It’s easily mistaken for CAD, but unlike CAD, it’s not caused by the build-up of plaque, but a sudden shortage of blood flow, due to an occluded vessel or narrowing.” Her words gained the attention of both men.“The best course of action in this case would be to-“ Before she could finish her diagnosis, Ivor

Ivory was rooted in place with her eyes wide.That…that unmistakably, was the sound of a gunshot. Did that mean someone had gotten shot?The thought sent a sick feeling down her spine.“Ivy,” Cameron suddenly tugged her along, pulling her out of her trance like state. “We need to get out of here.”He pulled her behind him and began leading her away from their current location in hopes that he could get them far away from whoever had the gun.Ivory on the other hand, although she knew this was the rational thing to do, couldn’t help her doctor side that kicked in.“Wait,” She said, pulling to a stop and earning a frown from Cameron. “We can’t just leave like this. What if…what if someone needs our help?”Cameron’s frown increased and he grabbed her hand again. “If we don’t stay out of the way, we would be the ones in need of help.”He began dragging her away, but Ivory resisted, not budging an inch.“You can’t possibly be serious.” He muttered and shook his head. After a few seconds of

“Let me take you home.” Cameron has said and at that point in time, it both sounded and looked like a bad idea.But did Ivory really have an option?With her car broken down and all ride seemingly avoiding that area, or charging hefty sums, she was stuck.And so, after much debate, she finally caved in and accepted the ride, and that was how she ended up in the passenger seat of Cameron’s car.The ride had been going on smoothly, the silence between them comfortable in a way that no one rushed to break.But then, Cameron, being who he is, decided to speak up.“So, you were married to Gadreel?” He glanced at her, noticing how her temperament visibly changed at the mention of his best friend. “I’m still having a hard time believing it.”“Well, believe it,” Ivory responded, a hint of sarcasm in her voice. “And drop it.”Cameron chuckled, but did not say a thing further, simply turning his attention back to the road, while Ivory shifted in her seat, crossing her legs, and looking out the

Asher could sense the tension in the air. Minutes after Ivory had walked out and Cameron had followed her, the rest of them, Evangeline and Gadreel included, had settled in one of Golden Hours private room.But even after the drinks had been served, not one word had been spoken. Gadreel looked lost in his own thought, while Evangeline looked like she had several things to ask.And Asher...well, after a few more minutes, he couldn't take it anymore.Sighing, he stood up and decided to give the little couple of their group, some space."I'll go grab... something." He excused himself and without a second glance, walked out.The silence after that did not last a second longer. Finally given their privacy, Evangeline spoke up."You've finalized the divorce with Ivory? Why didn't you tell me?" She turned her attention to Gadreel, expecting an instant answer.However, he kept his gaze fixed on the content in his glass, swirling it around in constant circles without saying a word.He heard Ev
