CHASING MY EX-WIFE CHAPTER 65
Arabel's POVMy eyes flicker open to see sunlight streaming into my room.Sunlight?My bedroom isn't facing where the sun rises. So why is there sunlight streaming through the windows?Instantly, I shoot up from the bed as a gasp leaves my mouth when the realization dawns on me that I am in Richard’s apartment.Shit!I scramble out of bed, dumping the heavy duvet around me on the floor, only to realize I am wearing nothing but his shirt and my shorts.Shit, shit, shit!What the hell happened?My head is banging, and I can't remember anything that happened last night apart from the dinner with Ashley and Caleb.Giggles float into the room, and I rush out to find him, so I can ask him what happened before leaving.Suddenly, more memories from last night drift into my head, and I halt just outside the bedroom.Ashley was mad at me. Caleb was too, because I lied to them.Richard looked pissed too, so he left with Daisy.Then I came home and knocked on his door to apologize to him. He was

Richard's POVA cold chill takes over my body, and my breathing hitches the moment she walks in gracefully and sees the huge birthday cake.She isn't smiling.Not looking surprised. Not angry.As I stare at the cake while remaining hidden, a wave of panic washes over me.I want to start blaming myself for coming unannounced and for throwing such a surprise when Natalie was clearly against it, knowing Arabel wouldn't like it.Now I regret doing this.I just wanted to impress her. Make her happy. Surprise her.Suddenly, Daisy emerges from hiding, following my instructions, and starts singing the happy birthday song, while everyone else follows suit.Emotion is back on her face. She must have forgotten her birthday, too. Or perhaps no one knows her birthday or has wished her a happy birthday in years.A sense of pride fills me up.When Ashley appears in front of her, Arabel gasps and rushes into her arms, laughing heartily. When they disengage, Caleb is right next to his wife, and he hu

Arabel's POVHyperventilating, I shoot up from my bed with a cold panic.Panting.My heart is thumping wildly in my chest. Sweat poured all over me. My mouth dried in terror.That nightmare. Again. But this time, it is different. It is more dreadful, frightening, and scary. I was struggling in my sleep before I finally woke up.This time, I saw his face.I had never seen his face before. I only saw what he was doing. Until now, I never knew who was behind it. This time, not only did he point a gun at me, he also pointed a gun at Daisy, and finally, when someone rushed in to save us, he pointed a gun at him too.Richard.Alex.Realizing my body is still shaking from the shock, I drape the duvet around me, grabbing my phone and flickering the bedside lamp on.Hugging my body to myself as I shuddered once more, remembering vividly the nightmare this time. Frantically, I begin to search for a number.Richard's.Did I see Alex's face because I was thinking about him last night? For a mome

Arabel's POV“Arabel, what happened?” His expression hardened, signifying how worrisome he is becoming.Firstly, I arrived unannounced and in tears. I am not with Daisy. His head must be racing with wild and silly imaginations.“I…I…I'm sorry, I wasn't supposed to…I'm fine.” I find myself stuttering, admitting the turmoil inside of me.“Are you okay?" Is Daisy fine?” He demands again impatiently, unable to keep calm.To stop him from worrying, I nod. “Yes, we are fine. Daisy is in school, and I am here instead of going to the office."“Ok?” He urges me to go on.Avoiding his exposed chest so I can at least focus on what brought me here, I gulp down nervously before announcing. “I had a dream. A terrible nightmare.”He doesn't say a word. He is just staring at me with an expression that tells me to go on.“It was so scary, Richard. I wanted to call you, but I held myself back…”“Why didn't you?” He cuts me short with a grim look on his face, showing his displeasure at my refusal to cal

Richard's POVCupping her jaw with my hand, her lips tremble.Not averting my eyes from her gaze as I take in all the emotions on display, I kiss the back of her wrist, wanting to feel her pulse against my lips, just like how I felt her heart beat last night.Thumping. Beating. Pounding.For me.I turn her hand and kiss the inside of her palm, my eyes locked on hers.She trembles against my hold, and I pull her away from the wall before embracing her.I know she is shocked by my revelations. I couldn't hold them in any longer. When she isn't pulling away like I think she will, I disengage from the hug, staring at her face. She is also looking at me, our hearts beating in sync, bringing tears to my eyes.Grateful.Regretful.Happy.Excited.And most of all, appreciating this moment. This is a moment I never want to end. Except for Daisy.She is the only one missing in the picture of my perfect and dream life. When Daisy is here, then everything else will be perfect and complete.I don

Arabel's POVBarely parking, I jump out of the car, racing into the teacher's office.Kicking the door open, I rush in, only to stop dead in my tracks when I see Daisy, sitting quietly beside Mrs. Mathew.There is a strange guy standing at attention by the door. Mrs. Mathew is seated, and the proprietor is also seated.Two other male teachers, whom I recognize, are standing next to the strange man. It jerks me back to reality as I rush towards Daisy.“Baby,” I cry out, and she embraces me tightly. “Oh, baby.”Someone bursts in, and I know it is Richard. He had been on several calls on our way here, but I didn't even pay attention to any of them.My mind was in disarray. My head was spinning. And dread was engulfing my whole existence as I realized that my dream was about to come true.Seeing Daisy now, when I thought she must be long gone, has brought relief to my existence. Right now, I don't even care what happened or how it happened.The most important thing is that my baby is her
CHASING MY EX-WIFE CHAPTER 71
Richard's POVHer “please” came out as a demand request instead of a plea.It makes me stare at her intensely, wondering what I have to do to win her back and have everything to myself.“Please, Richard,” she mutters again, this time with her eyes soft in humbleness. Quickly, I nod.I suggested we move in together, probably at the mansion or at the penthouse, so I can have them guarded and have my eyes on them all the time.At the mansion, I have my eyes everywhere because of the cameras installed in every corner of the mansion.I never thought I would think of living in that mansion again until now. I left because of her, and I would gladly go if she wanted us to.However, there are no cameras installed anywhere in the penthouse. It is my private space. My safe haven. From the world.I didn't bother with the cameras because I hadn't needed them until now.Arabel quietly disagreed with me as soon as I let out my suggestion, until Daisy chipped in. “Let's stay with Daddy, Mommy. I am
