Sienna’s POV

Driving around with a dead body in the trunk of your car isn’t exactly what two well-dressed women are expected to be doing on a night when they were supposed to be on separate dinner dates. But somehow, that’s where Sabrina and I found ourselves tonight.

And to make things worse, the body belonged to none other than our own mother.

Sabrina was still in shock, too numb to even move properly, so I ended up behind the wheel of her car. I prayed the entire time that we wouldn’t run into any cops.

Thankfully, the roads were quiet, and we drove smoothly. My hands were shaking on the steering wheel, but I tried hard to stay calm and look like I had it together.

Thanks to the countless crime shows I’ve watched and mystery novels I’ve read, I had a rough idea of how people got rid of bodies. Even though I never imagined I would be doing something like this in real life. But I couldn’t leave Sabrina to deal with this on her own. No matter how messed up she was, she was still my s

  • Chased by my Billionaire Ex-Husband    Soul Sisters

    SIENNASabrina had two jackets in the backseat of her car, which we threw on, to cover the bloodstains on our clothes. Once we looked a little less suspicious, we drove to a nearby bar. Sabrina had picked it on purpose because it was busy and loud, the kind of place where no one would notice two women acting a little off. More importantly, they had restrooms we could use to clean ourselves up before heading to our separate destinations— Sabrina to her mansion, and me back to Ethan’s place.Luckily, the plan worked. We walked in without anyone giving us a second glance. No stares, no questions.We made our way straight to the bathroom and began scrubbing the blood off our skin and clothes. We didn’t get everything off, but at least the worst of it was gone. Still, we couldn’t risk going back like this. Someone was bound to notice the mess we still carried on our clothes, on our faces, and in our eyes.We thought about stopping at a boutique to buy new outfits. But just as we were abou

    SIENNAEarly the next morning, Ethan dropped Livvy and me off at Roman’s mansion. I had to get Livvy ready for school and send her off before getting myself ready for work too.But after everything that happened last night, I hadn’t slept at all. My mind wouldn’t let me rest. Every time I closed my eyes, flashes of Emilia’s lifeless body came rushing back. Then I saw Sabrina’s tear-streaked face and her blood-covered hands. Then it was both of us, standing at the edge of the bridge, throwing Emilia’s body into the river. The last nightmare that jerked me fully awake was the image of both Sabrina and Emilia, drenched in blood, chasing after me until I fell off the bridge. I woke up before I hit the water.So when I got up this morning, my eyes were puffy and my face looked tired. Luckily, Ethan didn’t seem to notice much as he drove us back. He stopped the car in front of the mansion, and I got out with Livvy.“Goodbye, Mr. Ethan! We had such a lovely time with you!” Livvy waved brigh

  • Chased by my Billionaire Ex-Husband    A Not-so-friendly Reunion

    Sienna’s POVFor a moment, I was lost in the glamor of the event I was covering with my team. It was a business gala where high profile business people and media elites were in attendance. And that was until the head of my team, Fiona, snapped, pulling me back into the moment."Sienna, could you try not to space out?" “Sorry.” Without looking up at her, I muttered more to myself than to her. I returned my focus to the notepad in front of me and scanned the room, ignoring the whispers of my teammates behind me. I didn’t have to hear what they were saying to know it was about me.Apparently, my new colleague had also learned of the scandal that prompted me to be transferred from my former branch to the New York Branch, and they all believed the story, viewing me as the woman who had slept my way up. A scandal that was perfectly orchestrated by own my best friend.No one cared to hear my own side of the story. And I didn’t care to explain myself to anyone.Feeling my throat perching dr

  • Chased by my Billionaire Ex-Husband    The Favorite Montgomery Couples

    Sienna’s POVThe next morning, I stood in front of my boss, Ms. Leen, smoothing out my skirt for the third time in as many minutes. My palms were sweaty and my heart hammered in my chest. “Do you have any idea the kind of chaos you’ve caused?” She began, her nails drumming against the surface and her cold eyes locked on me. “My phone hasn’t stopped ringing since last night. Sponsors, attendees, the media, everyone’s talking about the little scene you decided to put on. Your embarrassing videos are everywhere, Miss. Blake!”“Ms. Leen, I…”“Save it.” She shot me another glare. “I don’t want excuses. What I want is for you to explain why you thought it was a good idea to slap a man like Roman Montgomery on the night of his business gala, cause a commotion, and drag this network’s name through the mud!”I swallowed hard, feeling my palms turn clammy and my heart beating so loudly that I feared she might hear it. “It wasn’t intentional, ma’am. I let my emotions get the best of me. I’m so

  • Chased by my Billionaire Ex-Husband    A Meeting with Mr. Anonymous

    Sienna’s POVI arrived at the bar half an hour early and as I sat down at the bar, focusing on the tart and fruity mocktail in front of me, I felt my stomach growl in anxiety.I glanced at my wristwatch a couple of times, flicking my gaze tothe entryway every now and then, half expecting the anonymous texted to walk in. But it was too early and he or she had specifically said eight pm. I checked my phone again and reread the cryptic message that had led me here. As I read through it for the hundredth time, my fingers hovered over the screen more than once, tempted to respond with questions. But something told me this wasn’t the kind of person who liked to repeat themselves. Dropping my phone back into my purse, I indulged myself in my drink, hoping that time would go by faster.A while later, I felt a presence sit down on the stool next to mine and I glanced at his direction. It was a masculine man dressed in a crisp white shirt with the sleeves rolled up and his black trousers tai

  • Chased by my Billionaire Ex-Husband    A Scary Desire

    Roman’s POVAs I stood in front of the full length mirror in my bedroom, I found myself unwillingly indulged in the thought of her again. Sienna. The hurt in her eyes. The emotions in her voice. It just wouldn’t leave my mind and it made absolutely no sense. She looked exactly like Sabrina, down to the shape of her eyes and the curve of her lips, except that she had chestnut brown hair and sapphire colored eyes while Sabrina had charcoal black hair and blue eyes. But then again, there was something about Sienna that felt different no matter how I tried not to think about it. Familiar, even. I ran a hand through my hair, irritated at myself.“Why the hell is she so convinced I’m her husband?” I muttered to myself. It didn’t add up. I had never seen her before in my life. Maybe Sienna was right and she was unstable.But then, why couldn’t I stop thinking about her? Was it the feeling of guilt I felt towards her in her miserable state? Was that the reason I had this nagging pull i

    Roman’s POVBy the time Riley and I got home, it was almost nighttime. Stepping into the living room, I was welcomed by the sight of my older brother; Julian, seated crossed legged on the plush, oversized armchair, reading a Forbes magazine.He lifted his gaze as soon as he heard us enter the room and a small smile crossed his lips. It had been over a month since I had last seen him. According to my mother, he had traveled for an urgent business trip. I wouldn’t say that I had missed him exactly because we had never been so close.…from what I gathered based on my eight years of memories.“Uncle Julian!” Riley squealed as soon as she set eyes on him. She ran straight into his arms and he chuckled as he rose up, scooped her into his arms and lifted her playfully into the air.“There’s my princess!”“I’ve missed you, Uncle Julian.” Riley pouted her lips. “You abandoned me.”“No, I did not. I wouldn’t dare.” Julian chuckled again. “How about we do this? Give your dad and I a little space

    Sienna’s POV“Happy birthday, sleepyhead!” I raised my voice as I hovered over Livvy’s sleepy frame with a small birthday cake in my hand, its pastel pink frosting decorated with sugar flowers and a single candle flickering softly. “Mommy…” Livvy stirred and stretched as her lashes fluttered awake. Once she got a glimpse of the cake in my hand through her half sleepy eyes, she gasped and immediately sat up from her bed, wide awake now.I chuckled lightly. I had creeped into her room while she was still asleep to surprise her and from the look of things, it was mission successful.“Happy eight years birthday, sweetie.” I settled onto the edge of the bed, beside her and pushed the cake gently towards her. “Come on. Make a wish.”Chuckling in pure delight, Livvy pressed her palm together and squeezed her eyes shut. “I wish that daddy would come back to us very soon.” Then, she leaned forward and blew the candle with all her might.My smile weakened as her wish flooded my ears.

    Sienna’s POVAfter leaving Ethan’s place, I had booked a cab to the restaurant where Julian had asked me to meet him. When I arrived and stepped out of the cab, I was just about to head inside when I caught sight of two figures in a nearby dark alley. They looked familiar, and they seemed to be arguing.I slowed down, my eyes fixed on them, trying to figure out why they looked so familiar. But the alley was dimly lit, and I couldn’t see their faces clearly.Just then, my phone buzzed in my pocket. It was Julian calling.“Where are you?” he asked as soon as I answered. He sounded impatient and his tone carried that sense of urgency that his text message had carried. “I’m sorry,” I said quickly. “I just got here. I’m heading in now.”I slipped my phone back into my pocket and took a step toward the restaurant, but I couldn’t help glancing back at the alley. The argument between the two figures had gotten more heated. It almost looked like a physical fight now.That was when I noticed s

    Sabrina’s POVEnding the call immediately, I spun around, my heart dropping at the sight of Emilia’s pale face pale, frozen in shock. The smiles she had worn earlier at the restaurant were gone, replaced by wide, disbelieving eyes.I swallowed hard, my palms turning clammy as silence stretched between us.She took slow, hesitant steps toward me, as if she had just heard the most horrifying thing in her life.Well, apparently, she just had.“Those things… those things you said…” Her voice shook as she forced out the words. “Are they true?”I didn’t answer right away. I just stared at her, feeling a surge of irritation bubbling beneath my skin.This old hag! Why did she have to come outside now? I didn’t bring her here for this. Now, she was going to ruin everything. I felt my hatred for her deepen.Her voice trembled as she pressed on. “Did you really cause Roman’s accident so you could steal him from Sienna?” Her eyes glistened with tears. “Do you actually plan to get rid of Sienna

    Sabrina’s POV"This food is sooo good," Emilia said, chewing loudly with her mouth open. The sight alone made my stomach turn.I forced a small smile, taking a delicate bite of my own meal."I know, right?" I said smoothly. "They make the best dishes here."Emilia let out an exaggerated scoff as she shoveled another oversized spoonful into her mouth. "That foolish sister of yours really messed up."Her chewing was unbearable to watch. I wanted to grab that spoon and shove it right down her throat."I mean, can you believe she turned down your offer to bring her here?" Emilia gestured dramatically around the elegant five-star restaurant. Even in the expensive dress I bought for her, she looked completely out of place. No amount of fancy clothing could hide what she truly was. Cheap and pathetic.And that irritated me."She’s such an ungrateful bitch," Emilia sneered. "She needs to be taught a hard lesson. Maybe then she’ll finally learn to be appreciative."I kept my small, polite smi

  • Chased by my Billionaire Ex-Husband    The Calm Before the Storm

    Sienna’s POVAt first, I hesitated to shop. I didn’t want it to seem like I was taking advantage of Ethan’s generosity. But Livvy’s excitement was contagious. She practically bounced around the children’s section, marveling at the colorful dresses and shoes.“Mommy, look at this! You’ll look like a princess in it!” she exclaimed, holding up a pair of elegant heels.I knelt beside her, taking the shoe from her hands. It really was beautiful. The attendant smiled warmly and encouraged me to try it on and I hesitated for a second before slipping my foot into it. It fit perfectly, hugging my foot as if it was specifically made just for me. As if sensing my initial reluctance, the attendant took it upon herself to guide me through the boutique. She pulled out dresses, shoes, and handbags —each one more extravagant than the last. Every piece was either a limited edition or straight off the latest runway collection. My doubts crept back in, but the attendant, clearly an expert in handlin

    Sienna’s POVThe weekend had finally arrived, and I spent most of the morning at the park with Livvy. We caught up, played around, and just enjoyed being in each other’s company before heading back to the mansion.Barely an hour after we returned, my phone buzzed with a call from Ethan.“Give me a moment, sweetie,” I said, excusing myself from the scrabble game Livvy and I were playing in my room. I picked up the call and brought the phone to my ear.“Hey,” Ethan’s deep voice greeted me from the other end of the line.“Hi,” I replied, settling against the edge of my bed.“What are your plans for today?” he asked.I glanced over at Livvy, who was busy arranging the scrabble tiles with her little fingers. A small smile tugged at my lips. Weekends were my favorite because I got to be with her all day. And to protect her from everything, even if just for a little while.“Just having fun at home with Livvy,” I answered.“That sounds... boring,” he teased, and I heard the slight stretch i

    Roman’s POVTonight, I had that dream again.The woman running, her laughter echoing in the open field as I chased her. But tonight, somehow it felt different. More vivid. More real. And for the first time, the laughter sounded familiar.Like other days, I jolted awake, breathing heavily. My body was drenched in sweat and my pulse pounded in my ears. Beside me, Sabrina lay fast asleep, her naked body curled against mine with her arm draped over my torso. The scent of sex still lingered in the air, but my mind was too clouded to care.I ran a hand through my hair, staring up at the ceiling. What the hell was this dream? And why did it feel like a memory clawing its way back? It felt like something buried deep inside me, that I couldn’t quite reach.Slowly, I turned my head, my eyes drifting to Sabrina as she slept. Could she be the woman in my dreams? My gut told me no. The laughter in the dream wasn’t hers. It was softer, warmer. As if I had heard it somewhere before. Before I c
