[ Madeline ]

I would be lying if I say that I didn’t enjoy seeing their sulking faces. Lydia Rosewood was ready to kill me. God bless my baby because of whom I am still alive and unharmed. I sat down beside Ava to enjoy their condition.

“Madeline, don’t get me wrong but seeing you here after two years of divorce actually shocked me.” Rachel said.

“Life is unpredictable, Rachel. I didn’t expect you to come here all of a sudden. As far as learned from the media that you decided to settle in Paris. You are doing good there, you are a top model of luxury apparel brands. What brought you back here?” I asked her. She always stated in her interviews about her settlement in Paris.

“My daughter will be handling our new franchise very soon.” Mr. Parker said this time, he was burning hole in me. I took his daughter’s position which he saw as the bridge to unite two business families.

“Oh, that’s great to hear.” I said. My mind immediately went to their planning, so it was all preplanned.

  • CEO's Ex-Wife Is Back As The Surrogate Of His Twins    Chapter- 22

    [ Madeline ]Not having the mood to be a part of the charade that had been going for hours at Damien’s residence, I decided to breathe in some fresh air before going to the bed. Next day will be a day off for me as I have to go for my first check-up after the implantation.“Madeline Smith, to be honest, I didn’t expect you to come back into Damien’s life but you proved me right. Something can never change.” Rachel’s voice turned my mood sour again. She was the last person I want to be with.“Yes, something can never change. You still have your hopes high that one day, you will have Damien but I don’t think he is invested into you.” I said turning to face her.It was just two of us after a long time and there was no need of pretence between us.“I am not the one who give up easily, Madline. In fact, I don’t give up or lose. Do you really think that I will buy your new drama? I know you, Madeline. You are still not over him who doesn’t wait for even a year before marrying another low li

    [ Damien ]“I can’t believe on your fate, buddy. I mean here I am single waiting for a pretty lady to find interest in me and look at you, Oh My God! You have three women who can give their lives for you. Damien, you are a lucky bastard.” Jason laughed.I gulped my beer and threw the empty can at him which he dodged.“This isn’t funny, Jason. My mind is a complete mess now. Everything has become too much complexed for me to sort out.” I said shaking my head.“Are you afraid of Rachel who is a bit clingy or your ex-wife who isn’t giving you any attention but she is quite popular in your office, especially male employees of her age. What is his name, oh yes, Liam guy.” Jason teased me and it worked.“Jason, don’t start again, you know how much I hate such men who lurk like a fly around a woman.” I said with distaste.“You get jealous when men try to court your ex-wife, right? Didn’t you marry another woman? She is fine with it.” Jason reasoned and I was speechless.“I had no choice, Jas

    [ Madeline ]“Come on, I can’t believe. I have to do it on my own as well. As parents, what is your responsibility, huh?” I huffed in annoyance.“Can’t you see that I am injured? I have slipped on the wet floor in front of your eyes and sprained my ankle. I can hardly stand on my feet. How am I suppose to come with you?” Ava snapped back at me pointing her singer on her swollen ankle and it was true.“Then tell your husband to not blame me later that I was reckless and didn’t take you or anyone with me.” I said.“I won’t complain because I know you are reckless. You skipped your medicines the day you felt sick in the office.” Damien said coming out of the other direction and our attention turned on him.“She was sick at office?” Ava asked him. I bit my lip. How could I forget that he keeps tab of my activities including my medicine time table.“Yes, I gave this responsibility to Nancy but she is also like her.” He eyed me, “So, instead of sending Nancy with her, I am going to be there

    [ Madeline ]“Hey, babies, I am your mummy. This is a surprise for me that you are not alone but your sibling is also with you. I can’t believe I will be a mother of two beautiful souls.” I said stroking my belly.My eyes were moist again but they were tears of joy. The doctor advised me to be extra careful.“Miss Smith, everyone is waiting for you in the meeting room. I looked for you everywhere. Why can’t you be sincere about your work.” Leila entered in the restroom where I came to throw up. Luckily, there was no one.“You could call on my number, Miss Leila and coming to restroom can’t be linked to sincerity. Don’t you use restroom?” I taunted her back.She rolled her eyes, “Just come with me or Mr. Rosewood will be mad at us for your carelessness.” She said and stormed out of there and I followed behind her on my own pace.“I’d advise you to wear heels, they give you more professional look but why am I telling you this? It’s not you are going to work here forever.” Leila said as

    [ Damien ]“Dad, why didn’t you inform me before initiating this deal with Parkers? I am the fucking CEO of this company and do not forget that I have executive powers as well? Call this venture off and apologize to your friend because I am not a part of this.” I yelled at my father who sat quietly behind his desk.“Take a seat first, Damien, we need to talk.” He said, he didn’t look angry but my temper was rising with passing minutes.“No, Dad. I am not in a mood to hear any bullshit of an excuse you’ll present. Garry Parker is a sly businessman and I don’t want to work on more projects with him. We have new partners willing to invest in our mega projects.” I tried to reason with him.“I understand, Damien and do you really think my friendship with him is more important than my business which I and my father built with our hard work?” He gave me a pointed look. He looked displeased by my tone.“Oh yes, how can I forget? You almost killed my wife because I am also an asset for you who

    [ Madeline ]“I heard from your bodyguard that you had rocked a business meeting, one of the biggest projects of Rosewood’s company and you are the hero of the deal?” Nancy asked me with excitement.She gave me the sliced fruit she brought for me and sat down on the vacant seat next to me in the garden. The late afternoon felt pleasant. I find peace in the garden which is the only place where this house’ toxicity doesn’t follow me.“I did my best and stayed natural. I think it should be a part of this business of hospitality, Nancy. I may not have a higher degree, nor I attended any training school but I can feel that Damien’s staff lacks the basic which is to greet their guests with open heart not by judging the digits in their bank account.” I said and munched on the apples.“You are right. You just stirred up the office. Your bodyguard said everyone was talking about you, the ones who talked behind your back, the people who knew about you.” She said.“They still give me dirty looks

I will order a walnut and almond pudding for you later but let’s finish it first and tell me what’s going on in your life?” She asked sipping her Americano.“Not much changed except I am expecting twins and Rachel Parker is back in the picture.” I said gobbling on the tart.She spit the coffee she was drinking and blinked her wide eyes at me.“What?” She exclaimed and I gave her a napkin to wipe her mouth.“Keep your voice low, Ellie. I have risked my identity to meet you, don’t shout and let others know about us.” I reminded her.“Maddie, how can you ask me to stay calm? You just dropped two bombs over my head. You have two babies inside you and wait what? That bitch is back?” She again exclaimed.“Yes, she is back. How can you expect her to stay out of my life when she knows that I am close to Damien

    [ Damien ]“I didn’t expect this place to be the same as last time. They haven’t changed in years. I love this thing about this place. ” Rachel said looking around the café.“Hmm, they aren’t but I think they should now since there are other competitors in the market and it’s good to welcome changes.” I said sipping my coffee quietly. My mind was on what I learnt from my father and also Madeline. She looked quite disturbed when she went home.“Just spill it, Damien. I have known you for a long time and your face is telling that there is something which you want to tell me but you don’t have right words to say it, am I right?” She lifted her brow.“You know me well, Rachel. Yes, I want to say that I don’t want to work on the project that my father approved. I am sorry, Rachel. Do not take it personally but I don’t think mine and your father’s ideologies match. My father and Garry used to work together, they had their understanding but I want to work with new partners and I already have

    [ Damien ]“Damien…” Madeline ran into my arms as soon as I stepped into the house. I immediately found my solace and hugged her even tighter.“I was scared. I begged the police to allow me to see you but they didn’t listen to my pleads.” She broke down into tears and my heart clenched seeing her like that.“I am back home, Maddie. Please, don’t cry. You are my strength. I need your support the most right now. Please, stay strong for me.” I said stroking her back.She broke the hug and looked at me with red swollen eyes, it was evident that she had been crying ever since she heard the news.“I can assure you that I will fight till the end. I haven’t killed her and I need to find the culprit who took someone’s life just to seek revenge on me.” I assured her wiping her tears. “I believe you, Damien, you can’t kill anyone but whoever killed Ava, they must be really dangerous people.” She said.“Nothing will happen to us. I am going to find them very soon, Maddie. Please, don’t stress yo

    [ Damien ]My mind stopped working. I didn’t know what was happening around me. I was summoned to come to the police station, they interrogated me for hours, asking me same question again and again. I had no idea what was going on.Ava was killed and the blame fell on me that I wanted to remove her from my way. Her family was persistent to prove it. The killer left no evidence but they found my hair at the crime spot and I didn’t know what were they trying to prove.I just sat there silently, my mind went to all the directions and imagined the worst outcomes. I had no alibi. Who was backing a low life coward like Ava’s father?Most importantly, my heart was scared for Madeline. Did she already know? What will happen to her if I go to jail. My own family is her enemy.I rubbed my face while gazing at my shoes.“Mr. Rosewood, you can leave as for now. Your bail is approved. I must say that you have the best lawyers in your pocket but I am also not someone whom you can buy with money. Ma

    [ Darius ]“Please, stop. You are tickling me.” Madeline giggled when I dropped feathery kisses on her open cleavage.“Why? Don’t you like when I kiss you here, like this?” I kissed her throat and made my way down to her valley, her back arched with the slow pleasure I was giving her.“Damien, you’ll be late. Just go, the court opens at ten and it’s already eight. You can’t be irresponsible.” She reminded me for the fifth time since we woke up.“You are a mood spoiler. Yes, the court opens at ten but our case will be discussed at eleven thirty. You know I am not the only man who wants divorce from an unhappy marriage.” I said rolling beside her but locked her in my arms.“Hey, don’t say that it’s offending because I am also a woman and in most of the cases, men are at wrong.” She glared me.“Ouch, I am sorry. I didn’t mean to target the women but those who are toxic.” I apologised and kissed her nose.“You’re such a sweet talker but we can’t stay in bed like this. Come on, let me get

    [ Madeline ]“I am nervous, Damien.” I said, my body broke into sweat as soon as the driver pulled the brakes in the parking lot of the clinic.I was at the doctor for a routine checkup. I haven’t consulted her after my incident but now, I wanted to ensure that my babies are fine and we are also there to find out the gender of our babies which made sweat even more.“Don’t be nervous. We’ll get to know today what we’re having. Personally, I want girls, a replica of their mother, beautiful and smart.” He said grabbing my hand and kissed my palm.“I bet your mother won’t wish for that.” I laughed and we made our way inside the clinic.“I don’t care what others want, Maddie. For me, you and our babies are my first and foremost priority regardless of their gender.” He said and it touched my heart because most of the men wish for a boy.There were no other patients so we were directly led to the doctor’s office.“How are you doing, Madeline?” Doctor asked me as she gestured us to sit.“Doct

    [ Madeline ]“Madeline, it’s already very late. Please, take some rest. Damien must be caught in some important work otherwise he would be home by this time.” Nancy tried to tell me for the umpteenth time but my anxiety was growing with passing hours.“How can I sit at ease, Nancy? He left with Ava as soon as we come home. It’s already ten and he hasn’t responded to my calls and texts. I don’t know what is happening between them or where has he taken her.” I shared my concern with her while tapping his feet on the floor.She gave me a helpless look and decided to wait with me as other house staff already retired to their homes. Nancy stays with us in the mansion.“Did he say something or you observed something unusual before they left without informing me?” I asked her and she looked away. I knew she knew something which she wasn’t telling me because hemigh“Damien asked me and other maids to pack Ava’s stuffs and it’s already sent back to her home.” She told me and I was shocked.“He

    [ Damien ]“What are you saying, son? You want to divorce my daughter? What happened? Did she do something to upset you?” Ava’s father asked when he recovered from the shock that my news delivered to them.“Yes, she tried to kill my babies.” I said, there was no point of saving her because her family will again use her as a pawn to trap another family. I have investigated their background and I found they are in debt and it will be easier for me to get rid off such greedy family.“What?” My mother’s face turned red because her heirs are the only valuable tressure for her.“Mother, I can explain you. Trust me, I didn’t wan-” She couldn’t finish her sentence as my mother slapped her hard across her cheek.“How dare you to hurt my grandkids. Have you forgotten your place?” Mother yelled at her menacingly.I stepped between them to stop more violence because I wanted to sort the matter peacefully and also want to close the chapter there.“Mom, we can also talk in a civil way.

The last time I recalled, I was at the Ramirez’ party, dancing with Damien and then his wife came. We argued and she pushed me.My heartbeats increased and a known fear gripped me. My breathing became uneven as I remembered feeling a sharp pain in my abdomen before passing out.My babies!“Hey, calm down, you are fine.” I heard Damien’s soft voice and I looked at my right side with blurry vision. His face came into my view and I saw a relieved smile on his face.I removed my oxygen mask and laboured my breath before asking him about my babies, “How..how..are the babies?” I looked at him dreadfully.“They are fine because their mother is a fighter. She will protect them at any cost.” He said gently stroking my hairs.I closed my eyes and thanked the God. I didn’t know when the last time I felt this much happier after knowing that my babies weren’t hurt. I would have died if somethin

    [ Darius ]“Please, save our baby.”These words kept ringing into my ears as I anxiously tapped my feet on the tiled floor of the hospital corridor, continuously praying the Almighty to keep my babies and Madeline out of danger but her words pushed me in a web of confusion.Why did she refer the babied as ‘our’ babies?They are my babies, it’s true but they’re not blood related to her. The more I recall her words, the more I was desperate to seek my answers. Only Madeline can answer me.“Damien, she’ll be fine.
