Burning desire: my ex-husband wants me back

Nicole thought that her journey to the prison would bring the love she sought in their marriage but that was not the case.She stared at Abel with tears flooding down her cheeks. His face shining and spotless like always. He emanates a cold vibe that sends a coolness to her spine. He saw those tears but felt no remorse instead his eyes grew darker and indifferent."Please Abel, can we not get divorced? " Nicole said with trembling lips.She kneeled, grabbed his tuxedo, and pleaded with him."Please don't do this to me. I beg you. I still want to be your wife, even if you don't want me" Unfortunately, her pleading enraged him. He quickly lifted his leg and Nicole fell flat on the floor. He looked at her in disgust. Nicole was truly a gold digger. She would stay married to him even if he did not love her just to have his money."Your pleading won't change anything. I can't continue to live my life in a nightmare. Marriage without love is nothing, but a nightmare to me."" I…I..love y

Avery quickly ran to her father's arms and hugged him. It was only in his arms that she melted like butter and sobbed out all the pains she had been holding in since Sebastian picked her up from Abel's residence. She has been the sweetheart of the family an apple of her father's eyes. She fled from home without telling anyone and changed her identity so that no one would find her. Her actions broke her father's heart and right now just like a prodigal daughter, she has come back home to ask for his mercy."Enough of this Princess, it's a good thing that you are home. You came back at the right time." Frederick Clinton said not hiding his disappointment."The company at Mallory Avenue needed help and your brother's hands were full already, so get ready because Sebastian will take you there tomorrow morning, from now on, you will be the new CEO over there," Frederick said. He vowed to punish Avery for her disappearance and this seems to be the best way to start. "Father! How can you s

As soon as Avery entered her room, a message popped up on her phone. She took the phone and found a message from Riana. It was Riana's picture with Abel. Abel was sleeping peacefully on the bed and Riana was lying beside him. "Guess what Nicole, Abel, and I just had a good time. As you can see, Abel was sleeping peacefully because of the exhaustion. So sorry you never shared such wonderful memories with him." Avery clenched her phone after reading the message. She was determined not to let Riana's words get to her."Go ahead and eat my leftovers. You can have him, I don't want him anymore" Avery clicked the send button and tossed the phone away.When Riana received the message, she was aggravated. This was not what she wanted from Avery. Three years ago, she had taunted Avery with messages like this and she would call her back to vent her anger. It was the same reason that made Avery accept her proposal. Riana tricked her into believing that she would leave Abel. The truth was

A sigh of relief came from Anthony. "Sure Ms. Clinton let's go" ****It was already 11 am the next day and Avery was in the boardroom with all the management teams.After a brief greeting and introduction, Avery moved straight to the point and told them why she called the meeting."I called this meeting to tell you my observations within the company and how we can move this organization forward. But first I want to know why everything seems so wrong within this company.? What caused the huge losses this company suffered over the years?"Everyone kept quiet and listened to her complain. Each of them was guilty in one way or the other. It's a matter of time before Avery discovers the bad egg in the company."I will let you know one thing, my vision to revive this company will be nothing without your support, so I need you as well as you need me to move this company forward. I hope we can work together as a team?" Avery asked.Anthony, who was not comfortable in his seat, felt relief.

"Don't talk foolishly. It's yours and you are my granddaughter-in-law." Bennett said.Avery wanted to protest and refused the ring but the old man quickly put the ring back on her finger. Just when she wanted to get rid of it, the old man began coughing hard. Avery quickly checked his vitals and started treating him immediately. After a while, he fell asleep, and his body systems gradually normalized."If he wakes up, give him these drugs and make sure no one disturbs him," Avery told Lucy. “Let's have lunch tomorrow at the Dinners”“That would be splendid. I will give you a call as soon as I am free” Lucy was excited to have Avery back. She has missed her best friend for two years and can't wait to have a good time with her."I have to go Lucy before anyone notices my presence. Please take good care of Grandpa""No need to ask, I will always take good care of him. See you tomorrow Avery"Avery put on her disguise and hurried out of the door. Unfortunately in her attempt to escape,
