After Divorce, I Return As CEO Chapter 99 Her Path To Victory.
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

Waking up twice in one day, wasn’t an odd occurrence for Ivory, but waking up and finding herself bound to a chair, her hands tied behind her back, was certainly odd.And even more, seeing the person responsible, sitting across from her and smiling sinisterly, was something Ivory could not have predicted.“So,” Thomas began. “You’re finally awake.”Ivory looked at him, her facial expression was unreadable, but the look in her eyes, spoke volumes.“I must say, you’re one crazy bastard.” She said, sounding more confident than even she had expected.“Kidnapping me? What do you hope to gain from this?” She asked.“Revenge,” Thomas answered immediately. Getting up, he walked off towards a corner of the room.Now that Ivory’s eyes was adjusting to the lighting in the room, she could make out the outline of a bed and… something tall hidden under a white cloth, positioned in front of the bed.“You firing me, me being arrested, that damaged my image, so much so that I can’t even get a single j

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,
