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

After Divorce, I Return As CEO Chapter 184 The Final Straw
A God damn high school teenager; that was what Ivory classified herself as she walked into her place, ears and neck burning hot.She was thankful that the lights were off, else, she would have seen her own reflection on the entrance mirror, red like a fucking ripped tomatoes and have to reprimand herself for acting like a hormonal teen.But, could she really be blamed? Gadreel had partial blame for this, after all, he was at fault for changing the way he had and making her experience things she never should towards him, again.Grumbling a few words underneath her breath, she headed towards her freezer, clapping her hands and turning on The lights as she grabbed a jog of water, a glass and turned to pour herself a glass.It was then, that she noticed second person in her house. A yelp of surprise left her mouth and she dropped the glass cup, shattering it.But her eyes didn't pay attention to the broken glass now at her feet. Her eyes, wide and fill
After Divorce, I Return As CEO Chapter 183 The Start Of Their New Chapter
Lucien had never liked police stations. So, after three whole hour of being interrogated, he was more than happy, when the police found nothing on him and as a result, had to let him go.Hand massaging the wrist that had been cuffed for quite a while, Lucien walked out of the station, pausing almost immediately when he saw one of his mother's men waiting for him."Young master," The guard greeted with a bow."What's this about?" Lucien asked. The answer to his question, came in the form of a single note."Madam Varga has instructed that I give this to you."Collecting the note, Lucien unfolded it, read through it for a few seconds and frowned.His dearest mother always knew how to ruin his day, making it worse than it already was.What the hell did she mean by 'Ivory is now considered a liability'?He didn't need her to answer that, the answer it self, was clear as day. His mother now considered her a threat to their plan and w

The room was empty and the sky had darkened by the time Ivory woke up. The rumbling of her stomach, was the first thing that greeted her as her nose picked up on the enticing aroma that hung in the air.However, she made no effort to get up. Staring blankly at the ceiling, she allowed the events of the past few days, replay in her mind.Her chest ached and the back of her eyes burned. She made no attempt to wipe away the tears when they formed, allowing them to freely fall, rolling down her cheek.She hadn’t even realized that she had begun to cry.All her life, she had tried, tried so hard, to keep the pain at bay, to not allow it to break her and yet, the past few days had shown her that the walls she had built up, were nothing but a mere illusion.Her defenses were weak.The betrayal, the fear, the confusion, the pain, all those emotions, the very same ones she had tried to bury deep down, had resurfaced, stronger than ever, and now, the only thing they left her feeling, was helple
After Divorce, I Return As CEO Chapter 181 Drastic Turn Of Events
The sizzling sound of meat being fried and the sweet rich aroma of eggs, filled the kitchen. It’s maker, Gadreel, moved swiftly around the kitchen, an apron tied around his body with the sleeves of his shirt rolled up. It was a scene so adorable and cute, anyone who happened to catch sight of it, would be surprised.It was hard to believe that a man so cold, a man who previously only cared for his business and the woman who turned out to have deceived him, was capable of making a scene such as this.As the meat reached its perfect frying point, Gadreel scooped it out of the pan, and placed it on the dish, putting beside it, the eggs he had fried.A simple meal of meat, egg and toast. Easy on the stomach and the exact thing he believed Ivory would needs.“Ivory,” Turning around with the food in hand, he searched the living room for her, expecting to at least see her waiting for him on the couch.However, when he noticed she was nowhere to be seen, he tilted his head and placed the food

The quietness in the car settled quickly. Or perhaps, that was what Ivory thought it was. In reality, Gadreel had been saying words.His lips moved, he threw occasional glances at her, but Ivory far too deep in her own head to respond.“Ivory, did you hear me?”At the mention of her name, Ivory blinked, slowly and turned her head towards the source of the voice.Gadreel. She realized and slowly, she nodded her head. “Yes,” She replied, softly, almost weak. “You asked, if I’m okay.”“And, are you?” His voice was probing. There was a soft encouragement behind it, ensuring her that if she needed to speak or pour her heart out, he was here, willing and ready to listen.Ivory took a second longer to answer this time around. Was she okay? She really didn’t know how she felt. She had feelings roaming her chest, clashing against each other and the prominent urge to scream, was ever so present.Yet, all of those things made her feel numb. Like it was all too much, the betrayal, disgust, disapp
After Divorce, I Return As CEO Chapter 179 The Horror That Would Haunt Her
The dread- thick and crippling to its core, settled upon Ivory like a thick impenetrable veil, as she realized the error she had just committed.She had messed up.The reality, a cruel reminded that she had thrown away her final chance at get out of this whole ordeal, was like a hard pill to swallow.Breath hitching, her thoughts quickly spiraled down a self deprecating path, a path where she wondered if this was all part of some divine punishment.Had she angered the gods, the heavens, or maybe, the universe itself?Because no matter how much she wanted, she could never catch a break.The universe was hellbent on keeping her in a loop of never ending pain and sorrow. Otherwise, one couldn’t explain to her, after how, only just losing her father, she ends up in a situation like this and when freedom seems on the tip of her finger, she had easily thrown it away in a fit of fear and adrenaline fuel trembles.Fucking hell, she cursed internally, eyes darting towards Lucien’s still uncons

Ivory dashed for the door with her full speed, but, Lucien had predicted her moves. In no time, he was in front of her, and she was thrown onto the couch, her breath escaping her momentarily.“Ivory,” He called, but she quickly kicked him, aiming for his crotch, but he had seen it coming and easily avoided it, his hand grabbing her leg and throwing it away.“Don’t misbehave.” He warned, pinning her down to the couch, but she continued to struggle, kicking and thrashing until her finally grabbed her hands and pinned them down above her head, his face close to hers.“Behave, or I swear to God, I’ll really kill him.” This threat, unlike his previous ones, carried a lot of weight, and it had caused Ivory to freeze.Her eyes were wide and her breaths were harsh, as her heart continued to race. She had come to know, in the past few days, that Lucien was a crazy person, he had made a few threats, done things that shook her and ultimately said things that made her realize how stupid she was f
After Divorce, I Return As CEO Chapter 177 Her Chance At Escape
“Mr. Ødegaar?”Gadreel was in the middle of watching his tracking software load the last location of Ivory’s phone, something he particularly wouldn’t have done under normal circumstances, but with the way things were looking like and the sinking feeling in his stomach, he was more than ready to do something like this to make sure Ivory was okay.That was, until the sudden appearance of his assistant, broke through his thoughts and the insistent tapping of his index finger against the table.Followed by a knock, Ezekiel had walked into his office, carrying with him, a box that Gadreel dimmed ugly, the very second he laid his eyes on it.“What is it?” He asked and looked down at the box. “And what is that?”“I’m just as confused, Sir. A garbage man stopped by and insisted that this belonged to you. A letter was left for you, he said.” Ezekiel explained, placing the box on the table and carefully sliding it to his boss when he had gotten close enough.After a few seconds of staring at t
After Divorce, I Return As CEO Chapter 176 Her Escape Plan
Looking at his phone, Gadreel frowned. The call earlier, had it been a fluke?Was he meant to feel better now that she had called him?But, why did she call him and then hang up immediately? And the messages he sent, why hasn’t he responded to them?Sighing, Gadreel massaged his pained Temple. He could feel that migraine coming on, and if there was one thing he didn’t need right now, was a migraine.Pushing those thoughts to the back of his mind, he walked towards his desk, his fingers typing in the password and logging into his laptop.Something really wasn’t adding up and he was going to get down to the bottom of it.~•~Four hours after the whole ordeal that had happened, Ivory stepped out of her room. She was in a new dress, but, despite that, her mind was still stuck on the previous incident.As a matter of fact, her entire being was.Even though he didn’t actually do anything, she was still shaken, and the fact that the door was locked and she was unable to leave, was making it
