After Divorce, I Return As CEO Chapter 84 The Man She Considers A Father.
Ivory had seen her fair share of surprise this week, but this…this was a totally different level.She couldn’t believe her eyes and for the first time since Gadreel left, the frown that had been permanently etched on her face, disappeared and was replaced by a look of utter disbelief.“Sir!”“Hello, Ivory.”There, standing before her, was none other than the man who had guided her through her years while she grew her knowledge on medicine.The very man who had taught her the difference between life and death. The man who had saved her and gave her a new life when her own family has abandoned her in the hands of a foster home.“What…what are you doing here?!” Ivory couldn’t contain her shock. In fact, she was still wondering if she was dreaming.Was the stress getting to her that bad?Doctor Elias Wrenford chuckled lightly, the sound was one Ivory remembered fondly. It was the same laugh he had made whenever he saw her doing something foolish.“I take my eyes off you for five minutes,

Ivory’s passion for medicine had come about because of three reason.The first one being the urge to impress Elias Wrenford, when he took her under his wing.Second, her wish to help people and make a living out of it.And third, create a medicine the prevented people from facing the same unfortunate demise as her mother’s.Back then, when she still believed that the cause of her mother’s death was an illness, one that until date, she never really got a name for, except for the fact that it was heart disease, she had been determined to make a medicine that would cure any illness, prevent death, and save lives.Unfortunately, that never happened, because after a near death experience with one of the tester and more research that proved that an achievement like that was impossible, Ivory stopped, completely.Disease, illnesses and death, they were just a natural part of the cycle. They came and went and the world would carry on.With that knowledge in mind, she had abandoned the devil’s

“I see you’ve kept yourself busy after leaving Luminary, Lucien.” Standing by the entrance of the living room, Elias stared at Lucien with a look that could only be described as disapproval, but after seconds, it disappeared.Lucien however, couldn’t hide the look of surprise that took over his face. “Doctor Elias,”As opposed to the warm ‘Uncle Elias’ that Ivory calls him, Lucien addressed their master in a more formal manner.“What a pleasant surprise. What are you doing in Paris?” He asked.Elias’s eyes lingered on Ivory’s shoulder for a little while, and only then did she realize that Lucien’s hand was still on her shoulder.Gently, she nudged it off and stepped away.“I came here for Ivory. I’m sure you’re aware of the recent developments, am I right?”“Yes,” Lucien sighed. “Which is why I came here. To check on V. Are you okay?” He directed the question to her.She nodded. “I’m fine. Thanks for the concern.” She managed a small smile, one that Lucien easily returned.The interac

After Doctor Elias had left, Ivory returned to the living room, she was a bit surprised to find that Lucien was no longer seated on the couch where she had last seen him.She frowned, but then heard a sound coming from her kitchen and the next second, Lucien walked out with two cups in his hands.“I made some coffee.” He announced, handing one of the cups to her before she could even think to refuse. “I assumed you might need it after a rough day.”She accepted the cup, taking a sip, and instantly, the warmth of the drink washed over her and brought her a sense of comfort.“Thank you,” She said, smiling ever so slightly and walking back to the living room.Lucien followed.“How are you feeling?” He asked as he sat down, and Ivory didn’t miss the way his gaze travelled over her face.He was definitely checking if she was alright, which, for some reason, didn’t bother her as much as it did the first time.“I’m fine,” She responded, sipping the coffee again. “Just tired and stressed.”“I

The next day, Ivory took a short trip to Elixiron. She noticed all the stares and whispers people were giving her, but paid no attention to them, after all, doing so would only disrupt her from her original goal.Finding clues as to who forged her signature.“Ms. Remington,” Carlos, her make shift assistant for the time being, greeted her with a bow. “Welcome. How many I help you?”“Send word to the archive and have them deliver the document for every drug produced in the last one month.”Carlos blinked. “That’s…a lot, Ms. Remington.”“I’m well aware, Carlos.” She responded, walking past him and entering the main office. “Just have them done as soon as possible.”“Yes, ma’am.” He said and scurried off, returning about fifteen minutes later with a flashdrive and some hard copy files.“Here they are, Ms. Remington.”Taking the files from him, Ivory set them aside and told him. “I’m going to be really busy today, so I’ll have you handle the meetings for the day, Carlos. If there’s a prob

A whole day had gone by and with nothing substantial to show for it, Ivory decided a break was definitely in order.So, putting her work and the crazy scheme of finding who had framed her aside, she decided to pay a visit to the hospital.After all, her father was still unconscious and if anything happened, she would need to know, right?Right.Arriving at the hospital, she walked in and was quickly guided towards the ICU where her father was currently placed.“Doctor has been monitoring him for a while now, Ms. Remington,” the nurse explained as they reached the ward.“I hope you’ll get better news.”“Me too,” Ivory muttered and the nurse excused herself.Stepping into the ward, Ivory approached her father’s bed and sat down on the chair beside him.As she looked at his pale, unconscious face, a sigh escaped her lips.“When are you going to wake up?” She muttered. “Do you think staying this way would save you from the consequences of your actions?”She shook her head. “I’m afraid not

“Ms. Remington, reporters and a group of rioters suddenly showed up in front of Elixiron and are causing a scene. They’ve refused to leave until they see you!”Carlos’s panicked voice came through the line and Immediately, Ivory frowned.The press? What did they want this time around? She could only but think of one answer to that.The Murder case of Peter. Of course those news hungry monkeys wanted a scoop of it.“I’ll be there,”With that, she ended the call, got into her car and headed back towards Elixiron.Along the way, she couldn’t help but sigh. She really didn’t have the energy to deal with all of these.If anything, all she wanted was some peace and quiet.Was that too much to ask for?She arrived at Elixiron and saw a crowd of reporters and people holding placards with her picture on it.The headlines were ‘Murderer!’, ‘Elixiron is a den of thieves!’, and others that were even worse.“Ivory Remington must be brought to justice!”“Elixiron has done terrible things, bring the

Anonymous? Ivory thought with a frown.Could this also be the same person that forged her signature?That would be the only sensible conclusion, because she couldn’t possibly come to think of anyone she has made an enemy of.Evangeline, yes, but that brat was too dumb to do something like this and all she cared about was Gadreel. As long as she has him, nothing else matters.So then, that left the only two check boxes open to be Samantha and… Gadreel.The frown on Ivory’s face deepened. Lucien, noticing this, stood behind her and placed a comforting hand on her shoulder, snapping her out of her thoughts.He flashed her one of his usual smile and gave her shoulder a gentle squeeze, before turning his attention back to Carlos.“Are you sure it’s anonymous, Carlos?”“Yes, Sir,” he nodded. “The account and IP address it was sent from is anonymous, which makes it harder for me to trace where the tip originated from. But I’ll work on it.”“Good, keep us posted.”Carlos nodded and excused hi

After Divorce, I Return As CEO Chapter 182 Anything For You, Ivy.
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
After Divorce, I Return As CEO Chapter 175 He Lost Control
“…you don’t need to tell me what I already know,” Lucien didn’t mean to sound rude, but with his mother being on the other side of the line, hounding down on him about how he needed to get Ivory to see things from their perspective as soon as next week, was making it hard for him not to snap. “You’ve told me this plenty of times, now.”“Don’t speak like that,” His mother reprimanded. “This is important. I believe I’ve given you enough time to do the needful and I’m beginning to run out of patience, my time is almost up. So, this is your last warning, get the girl on our side, or I’ll do it by myself.”Without waiting for an answer, she hung up the phone, leaving Lucien to sigh out loudly.What a wonderful way to ruin the start of his day, he thought, turning and exiting the balcony, only to find that Ivory was no longer where he had left her.He looked in the direction of the living room, her second most seen place, then in the kitchen, finding no trace of her.His brows furrowed and
After Divorce, I Return As CEO Chapter 174 Ray Of Hope
After spending two days in his house, Ivory had come to the realization that there was no way of getting that door open on her own.She had tried several things; banging, kicking, pushing, punching, setting a makeshift fire to trigger the fire setting and even trying to use items that Lucien had touched to recreate his finger print, but, nothing had worked.All of them were useless.Sighing, Ivory rested her forehead against the surface of the door, closing her eyes and taking a deep breath.“This is hopeless,” She muttered.She was trapped here, wasn’t she?There was no way out.Her phone, was with Lucien.She had nothing.What should she do?“Ivory.”The sudden voice, had caused her heart to stop momentarily. Turning around, she saw him, leaning against the doorway.“What are you doing?”Ivory had to keep herself from frowning. He had asked her the same thing the previous day, and she had responded with the exact same words.“Trying to open the door.”“I can see that,” Lucien said,
