After Divorce, I Return As CEO Chapter 98 She Cared For Him.
Evangeline was in the midst of her usual friend gathering, bragging all about the diamond ring Gadreel had put on her finger, when she received a call.Seeing it was from Mr. Foe, she excused herself, stepping out of the lounge and answering the call.“It’s unlike you to call me first.” She said.“And it’s unlike you to not keep that lover of yours on a leash.” His voice came in full force and for once, Evangeline could hear the emotions in them.Anger and hatred.She frowned. “My lover? Gadreel?”“Who else would I be talking about, Ms. Remington? Or don’t tell me, you’ve decided to make one of those your call boys, your main lover?”Evangeline froze up upon hearing this.How did he know? In fact, how much about her did he know?Was he going to use it and threaten her? If news about that got out, everything was going to be ruined!Her career, the publics opinion of her and worse of all, her relationship with Gadreel.He was going to look at her in a difficult light, hate her.“What…wh

The crowd had slowly began to gather and once again, Ivory felt that sense of déjà vu.Uh, she didn’t like this.“Please Ivy,” Evangeline continued, going as far as burying her face in her hand and seeming pitiful to the onlookers. “Don’t try and take Reel away from me. You did it once, but this time around…I don’t think my heart would be able to endure it, please.”The crowd murmured, throwing Ivory judging stares, and all she could do was look at them and shake her head.These poor suckers, Evangeline was acting like the perfect victim and like fools, they were buying into it.And as for that bitch, Ivory looked in her direction, frowning ever so slightly when from behind her hand, she caught Evangeline smiling.That bitch really needed to be taught a lesson.“Hasn’t anyone ever taught you that throwing around pointless accusations can and will land you in trouble?” She began, taking a single step closer.“And on what base do you think I’m stealing your man, huh?” She briefly glance

“Gadreel, I demand that you explain yourself this very fucking moment!”Evangeline had taken off the ring and thrown it on the floor, right in front of Gadreel, the moment they got home.She was panting hard from anger and her eyes were red, partially from said anger and partially from the silent tears she had cried in the car, which, much to her surprise, Gadreel didn’t even try to comfort her.It was like he had become a different person overnight, going all cold on her. But as much as that mattered, it also didn’t.What Evangeline wanted addressed at this very moment was the ring.Why the hell did he use the very same wedding ring Ivory had worn, to propose to her?And on top of that, he even lied!Did she mean that little to him? Or was there something she wasn’t seeing?“Explain,” she demanded, not caring about her volume. The maids were all sent home and Ezekiel was nowhere to be seen, thus, there was no need to worry about the privacy of the conversation.“There’s nothing to ex

Gadreel had never taken a liking to alcohol, in fact, he’d go as far as saying that he wasn’t a fan.It was not something he indulged in and the fact that the taste wasn’t to his liking, played a large role in why he stayed away from the stuff.But today, he was sitting in the bar, a glass of scotch on the rocks in his hand.The ice had completely melted by now, the alcohol was barely at half its content, and yet, Gadreel had not taken a single sip.Instead, his mind was filled with so many things, but particularly, thoughts about Ivory.Once again, he knew it was something selfish, thinking about her when he was meant to be feeling bad for what he had done to Evangeline.But even though, his thoughts still continued to be clouded by Ivory and worse, he felt no remorse for what he had done.The ring he had given Evangeline, that wasn’t a long story. After his grandmother had given that suggestion of hers, Gadreel had immediately ordered a custom engagement ring to be made.He had pick

The first thing Ivory noticed when she woke up the following morning, was how warm she felt, and the second, was that she was not lying on the sofa, but a bed and the final thing, was the weight on her waist and the warm that was radiating from it.Her eyes flew open and she attempted to turn, but the moment she did, she met a pair of grey orbs, staring right at her.“Good morning, V.” Lucien greeted with a smile, but that was not what had Ivory frozen.She stared, and stared and then, her brain finally caught up and she jumped out of the bed, pointing a finger at him and shouting, “Wha-what were you doing, lying beside me? And how…how did I get here?”Lucien sat up, his tousled hair accentuated the innocent look at adorned his facial expression, right before a grin was stretched across his lips, clearly finding her reaction amusing.“Calm down, V.” He began, a yawn escaping him. “You were having a hard time on the couch, nightmares I presume, so I moved you. Hope that’s not a problem

In case most don’t remember, Thomas or Tom Harmon as most know him, was the fatty wannabe president of a pimp that Ivory had fired a while back for acting like the arrogant bastard he was and trying to make her step down from her own company.So, seeing him in front of her, in a place like this, it was enough to make alarm bells ring in Ivory’s head.“What are you surprised to see me?” Tom asked, taking a rather intimidating step towards Ivory.But she stood her ground. “What are you doing here, Harmon?” Her question came out calm, and although the tone was not a threat, the aura she gave off, was.A silent warning for him not to misbehave and a silent reassurance to herself to, that he might not misbehave.Keyword: Might!“I just came to pay you a little visit, but seeing how hostile you’re treating me, I’m starting to regret doing so.” He said, throwing a fake pout at Ivory.She frowned. She wasn’t sure if this was supposed to be a prank, a joke or some sort of revenge plan, but wha

Lucien stepped out of the bathroom and the first thing that caught his eyes was his phone with a few missed calls from Ivory.Picking it up, he couldn’t help but frown. Why would she call him so many times.Had something happened?A feeling of unease washed over him. What if it was serious? What if something had happened to her?He quickly dialed her number, but the phone rang. It was ringing, but yet, Ivory was not picking up.That only made him grow more uneasy.But just as he was about to call back again, another call came through and as he looked at the number, his frown deepened.Why were they calling now? He wondered, feeling agitated just at the sight of the number.“What?” He snapped, answering the call and listening to what the person on the other end had to say.He was quiet for a little while, but the next time he spoke, he sounded even more agitated.“You’ve gotta be fucking kidding me!” He hissed. “Are you all so God damn incompetent that you can’t handle one thing withou

Hearing these words, Gadreel frowned.Ivory was in trouble? Had he heard correctly? And if so, why was Emma calling him?She clearly could handle any situation by herself, much like how she had handled the murder case and gotten herself bailed out.But despite knowing this, Gadreel still stayed on the phone and even went on to ask.“What’s wrong?”“I don’t know. Ivory suddenly called me and told me that someone was after her. I wanted to question, but it seems like she had muted me and-““Wait, slow down.” Gadreel interrupted her ramble, feeling the frown on his face grow even more. “What do you mean someone’s after her?” He asked.Emma, without missing a beat, went on to explain the situation that had just happened less than ten minutes ago. Her voice was very shaky as she spoke, showing ever bit of the worry and fright she was feeling at that moment.By the time she finished, Gadreel’s mind was filled with many things, but amongst all, one thought and feeling in particular stood out

“Ivory?” Calling out, Gadreel walked after her. “What’s wrong, Ivory?”Pausing Midway in the act of packing up the tea mugs, she turned and like before glared at him, but said nothing.Gadreel was utterly confused. But nonetheless, when she started moving, he chased after her. “Did I do something wrong?” He asked. “Or did I say something wrong? Please, talk to me, Ivory.”“Talk to you?” Dropping the mug into the sink, Ivory turned to face him, glaring, but now, looking closer, Gadreel realized there was no real anger in it. “How the hell do you expect me to talk to you, all sun shine and rainbows are the shit you pulled?”Gadreel blinked once, confused, but then, it ticked. “Oh.”“Yes, oh.” She huffed and turned, picking up a rag and wiping the already clean surface. “You can’t just jump in front of a gun and play Superman, Gadreel.

Surprisingly, Gadreel had taken up the task of bandaging Elias’s wounded shoulder, while Ivory calmed down in the kitchen, brewing herself some calming tea.Gadreel had insisted she took a nap, but she had declined. The events of the past hour still fresh and raw in her mind, she doubted she could close her eyes without reliving that moment.“How did you know?” Elias asked, glancing above his shoulder and watching the young man work.Gadreel paused his actions, looking up from the wound.As the last wrap of the gauze was placed and the bandage secured, Elias took a look at the work and commented.“Surprisingly, a fine work.”Gadreel gave him a look, but said nothing at his feeble attempt of a jab. As he cleaned up, Elias turned around and looked at Ivory in the open space kitchen, a thoughtful expression on his face.“Thank you, for looking out for her,” He said suddenly and Gadreel stopped, f

The silence that followed the reveal was tense and filled with so many emotions lingering in the air. Surprise, confusion and betrayal.It was clear as day that the news hadn’t been received well.Ivory was the first to react.“Your father?” She repeated, disbelief in her tone as she looked from Elias, her master in the medical sector and someone she sees as a father and Lucien, the newest betrayer in her life.Lucien met her gaze briefly. An unreadable expression flashed in his eyes before he looked away.“You’re his father?” Her question was directed as Elias. She sounded angry, demanding the answers that the sudden reveal had brought to light.“I am.” The older man answered, keeping his gaze on Lucien.Ivory opened her mouth, wanting to ask more than one question, but in the end, settling for a plain old simple, “How?”Elias ignored her words, or rather, he just did

Gadreel reached the intersection between Ivory’s house and the main road. Pausing, he furrowed his brow and tapped his fingers against the steering wheel, deep in thought.Where had he seen that car? He wondered, searching deep into his mind until it clicked.Back at the conference, the one Ivory had held when apologizing for her actions, Gadreel had seen that same car, parking just as he took pulled into the premises.And the person who had been driving that car, who had stepped out of that car, at that time, was…Lucien.“Oh fuck!” He cursed.Without a second thought, he backed his car and drove straight for Ivory’s house. He had been an idiot, a fucking dumbass. He had known from the start that Lucien was not done with whatever sick trick he was playing, he knew the bastard would try and carry on, yet, he had actually left Ivory alone, given the man an open chance to take Ivory and who knows what.His jaws ti

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

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

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
