Chase Back My Contract Ex-Wife Chapter 31 Impulsiveness
“ It has to be a man that’ll make our Alexandrine happy throughout her life. Do you have someone in mind?”I was rather awkward about this situation but I couldn’t say anything and just observe. As if taken by impulsiveness, Johnson muttered, “ There’s no need for any of you to concern yourselves over Alexcandrine’s happiness because she already has someone in her life, someone that completes her.”I didn’t know what to think of Johnson’s interference, whether to be upset with him for meddling in my life or be grateful. Grandmother looked at me and asked joyfully, Did what Johnson said just now true? " Do you have a boyfriend?”I couldn’t say anything except nodding back at her. “ Congratulations, my dear, you deserve what’s best.” My parents threw suspicious stares at me. I knew what those stares meant but what could I do? I couldn’t tell Grandmother that she was mistaken and that I didn’t have anyone in my life currently.Besides, it was for the best that Johnson continued to believ

The following morning, as Alexandrine was having breakfast with her parents, Alexandrine's father exhaled strongly upon reading the newspaper. There was something in the newspaper that left him in shock." What is it, Father? Why did you sigh?" I asked my dad who hid the newspaper behind his back. My mother looked at him suspiciously and asked straightforwardly, " What is it you're hiding, dear? Show it to me!"" It's nothing, really! You guys shouldn't see it." My father was reluctant to show the newspaper to my mother, but my mother wanted to see the contents of the newspaper at all costs. She muttered confidently, " I insist on seeing it, so show it to me!"With no other choice but to give in, my father handed the newspaper to my mother. " What got you startled inside this newspaper that you were almost petrified?" My mother muttered as she opened the newspaper to read the recent news.She turned the page over and over but didn't come across anything concerning. When she reached th

As the applause erupted in the room, my eyes were fixated on my ex-wife who I could no longer recognize." Is this the same Alexandrine I knew?" I subconsciously thought. In front of me, in the conference room was standing a woman dazzling with confidence. She used to be a lily but now she has become a red rose right after leaving me." That was truly impressive, Ms. Claire." One of the men involved in the collaboration praised her for her excellent presentation, but there was something else to him, there was something more." Thank you, Sir!" Alexandrine was happy to be praised and she thanked the man from my team of accountants. Her smile was enchanting that I was almost captivated by her. She was just so beautiful than even me in my dreams would have ever imagined." She mentioned she had a first love that couldn't be fulfilled." I thought of that sentence she mentioned in the conference room and wondered who that first love of hers could be. " Who could have been so blind and stup

I felt Johnson's breath close to my neck. It was reverberating and pleasing. I haven't felt this close to him in a very long time." Are you alright?" His voice resonated like a boomerang. Hearing him up close brought up so many memories to the surface. Those were memories of all the time we spent together since day one. Memories I wished I had forgotten." Is everything okay with you?" His repeated questions brought me back to the reality of the situation. I looked around me and saw the elevator alongside the people aside.I saw Johnson staring at me with loving eyes. Seeing his irresistible gaze upon me, it was difficult to resist but I managed my emotions. " I'm fine, Mr. Santos," I muttered in a low tone.Johnson was offended that I kept addressing him so formally and asked, " Why are you behaving with me as if we've never got acquainted with each other in the first place?"Before answering that question of his, the elevator arrived at its destination and opened its doors.

" Is there something you're hiding from me, Alexandrine?" Johnson's question struck me like lightning. What was that question supposed to mean? Did I get found out?I looked at Johnson who expected an answer to his question. What exactly was I supposed to tell him? Not understanding what exactly he meant by " hiding something", I asked him, " What exactly could I possibly be hiding from you?"Johnson looked at me suspiciously and muttered without a second thought, " You hid lots of things from me." He stared at me. " For starters, I didn't know you were a talented designer until today. Why did you hide it from me?" Johnson's eyes had a strange look in them that I couldn't quite grasp.As he kept staring at me, more questions were coming my way. " Why did you give up your dream? For what reason did you give up everything and for who?" The remaining two questions saddened me as he was related to them, but how could I tell him that? It's not as if he would believe me even if I were to re

As she looked over at the one who had caught her from falling, she locked gazes with her neighbor, Officer Nathaniel Frost." Are you okay, Miss?" As he asked again, Alexandrine came to her senses as she realized he was holding her by the waist. She quickly got back on her feet." Yes, I'm alright." She answered. " I just felt a bit dizzy, but I'm okay." She added." Let me check something!" He muttered before putting his hand on her forehead to check her temperature. Her forehead was a little hot as he pulled away from her." You have a slight fever, Miss." He muttered worriedly. I put my hand on my forehead to check the veracity of his words and he was right. My forehead was burning a little." I didn't realize I was sick." She mumbled in a low voice but her neighbor heard her fine.Worried over her condition, he muttered out of the blue, " Could I help you out?"???Alexandrine looked confused over his question. What exactly did he intend to say?" I'm worried for you, Miss. You’re
Chase Back My Contract Ex-Wife Chapter 37 Accused of Plagiarism
" These designs are plagiarized and they are in no way the proprietary of Alexandrine Claire." The reporter muttered even louder so that everyone could hear the commotion.The audience couldn't believe what they were hearing. How could those beautiful designs be the result of plagiarism?Alexandrine was offended by the accusation thrown at her. How could those reporters accuse her of something so unprincipled? Something was definitely not right. There was no way she would have been accused of being a plagiarist otherwise." How could you plagiarize those designs and present them as your own?" The reporters were getting more and more out of line. " Shame on you, Alexandrine Claire! Shame on you!"Doriane and the team were wondering how those designs could have been plagiarized. One of the employees even believed the reporter's allegations against Alexandrine to the disappointment of Doriane." Could these reporters be right?" One of the employees expressed his truest opinions and Doria

Attempted Murder?Alexandrine was devastated at what had just occurred. She couldn't believe how the wedding show had turned into slandering accusations on her person that she had plagiarized her own designs. Who was Violet Sanders and why did she frame her? More importantly, what did Doriane think of all of this?Thinking Doriane would certainly fire her now that the investors and collaborators had nullified the contract, she rushed to her office to justify herself before the latter made some baseless assumptions about her character." Boss, may I come in?" She knocked on Doriane's office but no response was coming out. Alexandrine began to panic, but when she saw her coming from the opposite side, she gave out a faint grin.“ Alexandrine, what are you doing standing outside like this?” Doriane asked. “ Why didn’t you come in?” Alexandrine fixed her but did not see a glimpse of anger or disappointment on Doriane’s face. The only thing she saw was care and concern for her which wasn’t

While all of this was going on, Nathaniel and Tina were on the run for their lives as Johnson's bodyguards were searching for them everywhere." What are you doing bringing so many things with you?" Nathaniel asked the latter as she was dragging suitcases with her. In retortion to his question, Tina said in response, " We'll be on the run for a while, so we might as well bring along all that we can for safekeeping."Looking toward Nathaniel, she said," I suggest you do the same."Nathaniel stared at her for a while without a word. He slowly walked away, guiding them on the road. Tina followed right behind him with her suitcase.At one point on the road, Tina complained to Nathaniel. " Why are we walking on foot when we could take transportation?"Nathaniel stopped in his steps at the relevance of those words. " If you enjoy transportation so much, why don't you go in alone?"…" Before you go though, you might want to leave your luggage behind because I don't think you'll be needing t

Back a few hours earlier, Johnson was at the hospital when his phone suddenly started ringing. Looking at the screen, his face brimmed with joy when he saw his love's name flash through the screen.As he was attempting to attend the call, he heard Tina's sarcastic voice on the other side stating, " You've always been curious about this jade necklace's origin, didn't you?"…" If you must know Alexandrine Claire, the one who saved Johnson back then, years ago was none other than yourself."Johnson was stunned by the revelation. " What is this woman talking about?" " How could Alexandrine be the girl from back then?" Johnson subconsciously thought as the narration continued." When you fell down the cliff, I claimed your necklace as mine." She huffed before adding sarcastically, " While you begged for Johnson's love, I didn't have to do anything to gain his love."As Tina continued narrating that tragic day, Johnson's head started to seriously hurt. The hurt brought back memories that w

" So this is what happened?"Still, in the abyss of her long-lost memories, Alexandrine subconsciously thought as she was unconscious, " So that means, I was the girl who saved Johnson long ago! I remembered everything as clear as day."" Due to me falling down the cliff, our history was changed and Johnson undoubtedly believed Tina was the girl who saved him."" She took advantage of my absence to take a place that wasn't hers in Johnson's heart. The reason why Johnson never looked my way was simply because he was keeping his promise to me."Recalling Johnson's promise once more, she subconsciously thought, " Although he forgot all about me, he didn't forget his oath. It's just that he got the wrong girl all along. Now that I've recalled my forgotten memories, I need to make sure Johnson knows the one who saved him that day was me all along and not Tina as he was led to believe all those years ago.Gathering her strength and energy, Alexandrine managed to break free from her unconsci

" Why do you look so shocked upon learning the truth about that necklace?" Tina glaringly revealed to her nemesis that she was the little girl who had saved Johnson Santos all those years ago and not her as she presumably led him to believe all those years ago.During the silence, Alexandrine subconsciously wondered, “ What is Tina talking about?” “ The one who saved Johnson years ago was me! How is that possible?”The next thing Alexandrine knew, Tina was joyfully clapping her hands and when she was done clapping, she said, “ I must thank you, Alexandrine Claire.”…“ If not thanks to your necklace, how would I have been able to foul Johnson for so long?” She smirked joyfully before adding, “ Had you not left your necklace out that day, I wouldn’t have been able to take your place in Johnson’s heart, so thank you so much, Alexandrine Claire.” She laughed hysterically at the end of her sentence.Alexandrine was too stunned by Tina’s craziness to ask any questions whatsoever.

" What would you want me to do for you to prove my fidelity to you?" She asked and pondering on the matter some more, he uttered unconvinced, " No, this might not be a good idea, go away!"Tina hung on to his hand and said in retortion, " If you don't tell me the task you have for me, how will you know for sure that I'll fail without even giving me a chance to prove myself?"Pondering on her words for a while, Nathaniel uttered convinced, " Alright, I'll give you a chance to prove yourself but if you don't meet my expectations,-------------" Before he could conclude his statement properly, Tina cut him short and stated confidently, " I'll meet your expectations, you can be sure of that."" You won't find a better partner in crime than me. Besides, I'm used to getting everything I desire for myself and that's not about to change anytime soon." She ended her statement in a stern tone.Nathaniel chuckled maliciously, " I like the confidence you are harboring and so I decided to give you

“ Who would want to team up with you?” Alexandrine glared at her former friend and supporter with extreme coldness. “ What? Why are you looking at me like that?”“ Did you seriously think I’d allow you to use ema as a peon once more?” Nathaniel didn’t dare answer. Alexandrine wasn’t done telling him his four truths. “ You mentioned just now that whatever was happening was due to me standing by Johnson’s side, correct?”“ If that wasn’t truly my fault, then answer me this, would you?” Nathaniel flinched at the sound of that. “ Was it also my fault to befriend you and offer you my unconditional trust?” Once more, he was stuck and couldn’t answer her questions.“ Why won’t you answer me, Nathaniel?” She shouted as she added, “ Why won’t you admit once and for all that meeting you and letting you evade my life as you did was nothing but a mistake?”“ After all, had I not met you, I wouldn’t be in this situation and would certainly not have been used as a vulgar peon with no consideration

The moment Alexandrine awoke after a few hours, she realized she was bound in an abandoned clothing factory. “ Once again, I was bound to something. When will all of this ever stop?” She subconsciously thought before hearing noises not far away from where she was bound.In a daze, she heard Tina and Nathaniel in conversation with one another. She could hear what they were talking about. “ Why have you kept her alive instead of killing her?” Tina was the first to speak and she was followed by Nathaniel who muttered in response, “ This isn’t as easy as you think it is, okay?”“ What’s not easy to do?” She retorted coldly, “ Instead of playing this game with me, why don’t you admit before me the real reason why you’re adamant about killing her?”…“ Why don’t you admit before me that you’re still infatuated with her and that’s the reason why you don’t want her dead?” Alexandrine kept listening in on their conversation and subconsciously thought, “ Those two have been working together all
