Chased by my Ex Husband Bigger Scale
Grace“ We can’t lose him, Tristin. ” I whisper, my voice trembling.“ We won’t. ” His hand cups the back of my head gently. “ I swear to you, Grace, I will find him. Even if it kills me, I will bring him back to us. ”There is something in his voice—an unshakable determination that makes me want to believe him. We stay like this for I don’t know how long. But in his arms, the panic subsides a little, and the energy I had lost returns.“ Please eat something. ” He whispers in my neck softly. “ I can’t see you like this. ”I nod, inhaling a moist breath, and keep my eyes closed. “ Okay. ”The door to the hotel room opens again, and the hurried footsteps rush inside. I pull back from Tristin and glance at Luca.I heard they had arranged a whole setup in the room beside this suite. They are trying to run face recognitions and other things to catch the people who took my son.He was in the ambulance with another guard. But after reaching the hospital, Mom and Ania were transferred to a h

GraceMy legs shake as I sit in the backseat beside Tristin. He is watching something on his phone in repeat mode, and every time that video starts playing, the look on his face just worsens.It’s impossible to ignore his scowl and focus on what’s going to happen instead.“ What is it? ” I ask, growing impatient by the moment.Tristin’s head jerks back. He turns off his screen and puts the phone on his thigh, screen down. I clench my hands into fists, noticing that little move before looking up to meet his gaze. The moment our eyes meet, my guts twist with a bad feeling.“ What… ” My lips tremble. “ is it—is it some…news…about… ”I have been eagerly awaiting news about my son. But now that I look into Tristin’s eyes, I notice the horror and realize that it can be bad news…I suddenly don’t want to hear it.Instinctively, my hands reach for my ears, but before I can block them, Tristin reaches out and grabs my wrist. I stiffen, turning my gaze to the back of the passenger seat where L

GraceI gasp, breaking out into a sprint towards them. “ Tristin! ”He hears me. His shoulders tighten for a moment, but then he ignores it like he doesn’t care.He hovers above Ethan, grabs his collars, lifts his body, and punches him again. “ What are you doing? ” The girl beside them shrieks. “ Security! Call the security right now! ”“ Tristin. ” I hiss, stopping a few steps away from them in shock. Suddenly, Ethan throws Tristin off him and settles above him. He throws a hard punch. Tristin’s head turns to the right as Ethan punches him a second time.There is animosity in the air. It makes my heart clench inside my chest. I rush closer and grab Ethan’s arm before he can punch Tristin again. “ Ethan. ” I yell, gripping him tightly. To my surprise, he stops and looks over his shoulder. Our eyes meet, and his glare softens a little.“ Stop it. ” I blurt, my fingers digging into his skin. “ He started it first. ” Ethan shrugs my hand and gets off Tristin. “ I have made peace wi

Grace“ Someone kidnapped your son, and now you got this video from a close parking lot building. You think she hired some men to kidnap your son and then hand him over to her? ” Ethan tilts his head and asks Tristin, who is glaring at him.My feet continue to tap against the floor restlessly as I sit in the lounge. Nothing about this place has changed—not even a bit. Even the decor I had carefully put up is still there.An uneasy feeling in my gut keeps drawing my attention away from Tristin and to my surroundings.“ You killed her. ” Tristin’s voice rises. “ I am sure of it. ”I flinch, directing my gaze to the man sitting on the opposite couch. The girl is still sitting beside him, eyeing us warily but she has been silent since we came inside.I take her in. She is wearing a simple, elegant white dress that reaches below her knees and gives off a decent look. A constant frown marks her forehead, yet she clings to Ethan’s arm as if she is used to it.And Ethan. He is discussing ever

Grace~7 Days Later…The sterile smell of disinfectant fills my lungs as I lie on the hospital bed, staring at the ceiling. It’s been a week since Seb was taken. Seven days and every minute of it feels like a lifetime. My mind replays the moment I realized he was gone over and over, a broken record I can’t shut off.Seb’s laughter is still etched in my ears—the way it used to bounce around the house, filling every corner with life. Now, the silence is unbearable. It weighs on me, crushing my chest until I can barely breathe. I haven’t cried in hours, not because I don’t want to, but because my body seems to have given up. The tears are there, trapped somewhere deep, too heavy to fall.Tristin’s mom, Anna, sits beside me, her hand gripping mine tightly. I feel the weight of her concern, but I can’t bring myself to meet her eyes. What good are words when my son is gone? Her voice is gentle, coaxing, as she dabs a tissue at her own eyes.“ Grace, sweetheart, you have to eat something.

TristinI thought I knew and had seen everything in life. A broken family. Abandoned dreams. Horrible deaths. Secrets that damage your existence. If someone had told me there is still something in this world that I have yet to see, to feel, I would not have believed them.But in the past seven days, I have realized that nothing I have endured compares to the agony of not knowing where your child is. It feels like your existence has been ripped away, and there is no reason to live, and if you live, there is no light. It’s an unbearable mix of terror, helplessness, and guilt. Every second becomes a torment, every moment without your child stretching into an eternity filled with endless questions. Are they safe? Are they scared? Are they hurt?The fear is more constant than the pain. It makes it hard to think, to breathe. It feels like you have failed at the most sacred duty of your life. And that failure echoes in every quiet moment, every sleepless night, gnawing away at you until

Tristin“ Luca! ” I can’t keep the urgency out of my voice, the raw panic creeping through. “Get the car ready. We are going to the hospital. ”I can feel the weight of my son in my arms, feel every breath he takes. I can finally hold onto him. I move as fast as I can, not stopping until I am outside, slipping into the backseat of the car. His little hand clutches at my shirt weakly, and I squeeze it, not caring if I am holding him too tightly.“ Go, now! ” I snap at Luca, my voice rough with urgency. The car starts moving, but as the seconds tick by, my mind snaps back to the one thing I can’t ignore—the hospital. He was taken from a hospital. The place where he should have been safe, and instead, this...This nightmare happened.“ No. No hospital. ” I say, shaking my head as panic makes my chest tighten. “ Call the doctor. Tell him to meet us at home. Now. ”Luca’s eyes flicker to my gaze in the mirror, but he doesn’t argue. He starts calling the doctor after picking up the phone,

GraceIt takes me hours to drive to that spot. The moment I reach there, another message pops up. She changes the location of our meetup. I want to scream and cry in frustration, but at that moment, I move like a robot.Overcome by panic and fear, I put the address on the map and drive to the location without a second thought. The location seems to be deep into the woods, and in the end, I have to abandon my car on the road and walk through the forest to reach the shady small cabin.The night falls, and everything around me darkens. As I turn on the torch and see the signals on my phone going off, my heart doesn’t tremble—not even for a moment.I keep walking to approach that trap faster. I know she won’t let me go once I set foot in that small place and offer myself up on a silver platter.But it doesn’t matter. Saving my son means everything to me.Besides, I have made sure to take a car that has an advanced tracking system activated. Tristin will notice if I am gone for so long.

Grace“ Wait— ” I hiss quickly, stepping closer to Tristin to squeeze some space for myself. “ Tell Mom to come here and—”Before I can finish, the door slams shut. I let out a scream of frustration just as Tristin’s arm wraps around my waist. A startled gasp escapes me as he lifts me off the floor and carries me to the bed easily. “ Tristin, put me down! ” I thrash against him, but his grip is unyielding.He presses me down onto the mattress and hoves above me, leaving me no room for escape. “ Do not act like I am holding you hostage… ” He mutters, his voice returning to the soft note he has reserved for me. “ We are just having a couple’s fight. ”Is he being serious?!I laugh bitterly. “ This is not a couple’s fight, Tristin. When Mom comes, I am leaving, and you will never see my face again. I will make sure of that. Never! ”His jaw tightens as I smirk. I think I have won. But then, in one swift motion, Tristin flips me onto my stomach and yanks my zipper down. My breath cat

GraceI sit stiffly in the wing chair, my arms crossed across my chest and my glare fixed on Tristin. He stands by the locked door, his back against the wall, looking calm—too calm. He has lost his mind. That is the only explanation for this whole thing. I scoff. He cannot stay here forever. That bitch is in the house, and sooner or later, he will have to leave. I tell myself that is why I am so composed right now—because I want to see how long he can keep this up. But deep down, I know the real reason.When I saw Serena here, a dark thought crept into my mind. Maybe another woman had given him a family. Maybe he did not need me anymore. And that thought nearly shattered my heart into pieces.Before I can dwell on it, my phone rings. I glance down, and a frown etches between my brows.Why didn’t I think about calling someone? I reach for my phone and see Talia’s name shining on the screen. Before I can answer the call, Tristin’s shadow looms over me. Not even giving me the chanc

TristinI watch as Grace pushes against my chest, forcing distance between us. The fire in her eyes is like nothing I have ever seen before—not directed at me. Not like this.Her words echo through my head. ‘ We are done here. I am leaving. And you can't stop me. ’I can’t breathe.She turns away from me and grabs her packed suitcase. I want to say so much more, but no words come out of my mouth.She leaves me standing there and moves toward the door without hesitation. I should let her go. I should step back and give her space. I should fix this in a way that doesn’t involve desperate measures.But right now…This doesn’t feel like something that can be handled by giving her space. She looks like if she leaves, she won’t return and will never talk to me again. Panic surges through me like wildfire. My body moves on its own, faster than my mind can process, and before she can even reach the handle, I slam the door shut.Click.The sound of the lock twisting into place is deafening.

GraceI finish packing Sebastian’s things and glance at the bed, my chest tightening when I see him curled up. He fell asleep when he saw me packing for too long. His tiny fingers clutch the edge of the blanket, his breathing soft and even. He looks so peaceful. For a moment, my heart wavers. He loves his Daddy so much. How will he live away from him? I walk towards him and press a gentle kiss to his forehead, lingering for a second longer than intended.If we stay, my son will get more hurt when he realizes he has a brother who shares the same name with him.I straighten up and call the nanny over. She comes rushing and stands by my side. “ Stay with him… ” I say, my voice quieter than usual. “ Don’t leave him alone until I come back. ”She nods, and I force myself to walk away.When I reach my room, I head straight to the walk-in closet and pull out my suitcases. This time, I pack my own things. My fingers move automatically, folding clothes and stuffing them into the bag. I fe

Grace“ Whose child is that? ” I question.An eerie silence falls in the space. Looks are exchanged. Heavy breaths are released.The question must be too hard to answer even if it is so clear. I look into the child’s blue eyes and don’t look away. He stays rigid on his spot, never wavering, even under my penetrating gaze. “ What is your name? ” I find myself asking when the silence stretches for too long.A frown forms between the child’s brows, and he replies without hesitation. “ Sebastian. ”My breath hitches, my chest tightening as if the air has thickened around me. My fingers tremble slightly at my sides, and I curl them into fists to stop the shaking.Sebastian. My son’s name. A dizzying wave of nausea rolls over me, tightening its grip on my lungs. I can barely breathe.I swallow hard, my throat dry, and my heart pounding in my chest.“ Sebastian… ” I whisper, the name foreign on my tongue even though I have said it a thousand times before.The boy tilts his head slightly,

GraceTristin underestimates my understanding of him.I know when he is lying. And when he said that ‘no’, he was clearly, desperately trying to make me believe that there is nothing he is hiding from me. But everything I wanted to know was written right on his face.The question is…Will I ask him that question again? No. I gave him a chance. He didn’t take it.Now, I need to find out everything in my own way. As he tells me that we will go home together and that he just has one meeting to attend, I nod and tell him that I will wait for him.After he leaves, I take out my phone and see the contact information Talia has sent to me—the private detective.Her Aunt has already told the detective about me. So, I click a picture of Serena from the photographs and sent it to him with her name.A message appears on the screen, asking me about what kind of information I seek.I stare at the screen for a moment. What do I want to know? Her connection with Ethan or why Tristin looks so uncomfo

Tristin“ Leave, Luca. Do what I said. I want them gone. Tonight. ” I tell Luca while keeping my eyes on her.“ Yes, Boss. ” Luca hurries out and moves past her.Grace walks inside once he has left and closes the door behind her. I straighten up, my gaze flickering to her fingers that are turning white around the envelope she is gripping too tight.“ What is this? ” Grace’s voice stays low as she comes to stand on the spot where Luca sat moments ago.“ What? ” I blink calmly.Her hands shake as she rips the envelope open and takes out some pictures. Before I can open my mouth, she throws the pictures towards me.They fly across the space and hit my chest before dropping on the desk. Instinctively, my hands clench into fists, and my jaw grits. She is rightfully angry—I reason with myself. But a voice inside me keeps whispering…I have seen her in a more compromising position. But I have not reacted this way. I look down at the pictures. Just like I thought…That bitch kneeled between

TristinHe must have sent her something by now. I rotate the phone in my hand, watching the blank screen. Luca sits on the other side of the desk, watching me closely.“ Boss, you should have explained everything to her. ” He suggests.I lean back and drop the phone on the desk. I have been waiting for her to call me and ask if I have slept with Serena.But Grace has not done that. Now I think she will come here personally, to confront me. In about an hour or so. Luca is right. I should have explained everything to her. But what do I tell? Do I say…Oh Grace, you know what? We have a new family now and you can just accept them. Or maybe she will readily accept everything even if I do not want to.I am…a selfish bastard, and the only people I care about in this world are my mother, sister, my wife, son, and my friend sitting from across me.The rest of the people…They can burn for all I care.It has always been this way.That’s why…I don’t know how to handle this sudden slap in th

GraceA woman should never ignore her intuitions.When something feels wrong…She should believe that something is wrong instead of trying to find reasons to prove that nothing is wrong.Because when you try so hard to prove nothing is wrong, and it turns out to be a mistake, it hurts more.I stare at the three pictures on my desk. In the first one, Serena is kneeling between Tristin’s legs, holding onto his knees In the second, she is hugging him from behind.In the third, she is on her toes, her hands over his coat, and her lips so close to his. Why did he smell like her so thoroughly? It was because she was all over him. It was because…he was doing things he shouldn’t have done with her. I grip the edge of the desk, my fingers digging into the wood, the unease in my chest tightening with every second I spend staring at those pictures. I shouldn’t be here. I shouldn’t be looking at these images, shouldn’t be letting my mind spiral like this.But I can’t help it. Every inch of
