Grace

I was in a daze the whole night. I sat in the corridor outside Ethan’s room and stared at the doctors and nurses who passed by.

I should have been scared of him. But staying here seemed like a temporary escape. I had a hunch that Tristin wouldn’t come to find me here, and I was right.

He didn’t come.

Unconsciously, a little of revenge had been served cold to him. It must have hurt him to know that I was here all night.

Or maybe not. What if he didn’t even care about me enough to worry over such things now? I thought and then lost the ability to think.

I sat there—numb, cold, empty inside. And it was better. Memories didn’t haunt me as long as I focused on the accident and not what happened before it.

Just when I was beginning to get used to the numbness, two familiar bodyguards arrived and stood beside me. They didn’t say anything—they didn’t have to.

He didn’t come himself. But he sent his two minions to ensure my safety.

It was funny to me.

She’s ridiculous. If she loses Tristin it will be her fault. Tristin never cheated on her. He NEVER had a woman sit on his lap purposely. His dumb secretary slipped on the blood that was on the floor and he prevented her from falling. Leila just so happened walked in and only saw the woman on his

  • Chased by my Ex Husband   Mrs. Calder

    GraceUntil you don’t hear genuine concern in someone’s voice for you, you stay cold, numb, and empty, but when someone sincerely asks…Is everything fine? It’s like the wall crumbles, and emotions flow out. I feel it now—the lump that I can no longer swallow, the pain in my chest, the sting in my eyes. Before I can control it, she speaks up again. “ Grace, where are you? Tell me right now. I will come to get you. ”“ Mom. ” I choke on my breath. “ I—I am not a child. I am just…busy with work. I—I will come back in a while. ”I don’t like lying. But how do I tell her what I have seen and where I am sitting right now?“ You don’t sound like you are busy. ” Her voice lowers. “ tell me what’s wrong. You didn’t come home, and Tristin didn’t come home. You two have been gone for the whole night, and now Luca says that he can’t tell me what’s gone wrong with you two.

    Grace“ Mrs. Calder, Boss is resting. If you are going to stand there and disturb him, you should take your leave. ” A familiar voice says.A frown etches between my brows. I look ahead to find the same assistant addressing me as ‘Mrs. Calder.’It irks me out. “ I am Mrs. Roberto. Tristin Roberto’s wife. ”He remains unfazed and stares at me as if he is not even interested in what I have to say.I sigh, my gaze drifting to Ethan again. My mind was clouded with emotions before, but now, I can think a little.And I refuse to believe that Ethan’s heroic act is a coincidence. With Ethan Calder, coincidences are not only rare—they are nonexistent. I stroll inside and stop a few steps away from the bed. He still doesn’t look up.“ Are you deliberately ignoring me? ” I question, anger simmering beneath my tone.Slowly, he picks up his head, and his green eyes meet my narrowed gaze. He blinks and remains stoic before he looks down again.“ What are you doing here? ” He asks, his voice devoid

    GraceThe car speeds down the road. Everything seems blurred in the broad daylight. My chest feels tight, constricted by the silence radiating from Tristin. His hand is locked around mine, his grip almost painful, but I don’t care about the pressure. I care about the way his eyes refuse to meet mine, fixed instead on the bright world rushing past the window.I don’t understand what’s happening and why he looks so…strange. And it’s making my heart race. “Tristin. ” I whisper, my voice low but edged with worry. “ Tell me what is going on. ”He doesn’t answer. His jaw is taut, and his expression is unreadable. Beside the driver, Luca stares intently at his phone, his fingers flying over the screen. Every few seconds, he dials a new number, but from the stiff way his shoulders hunch, I know he is not getting the answers he wants.“ Luca, at least you should tell me what is wrong! ” I hiss, unable to stay silent anymore.“ Mrs. Roberto. Please stay calm. We will be there soon. ” He rep

We believe he was taken. ”The words don’t make sense. They can’t.“ What? What do you mean by taken? Taken where? ” My voice is barely a whisper, but the man hears me. He turns to me, his expression a mixture of pity, regret, fear, and so much more. Why…Why is he looking at me like this?My head is spinning. “ I am sorry, Mrs. Roberto. We believe the Young Master was kidnapped on the way to the hospital. We are looking for him and will find him soon. The kidnappers couldn’t have gone far.”Kidnapped.

    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.

    Grace“ She is back. Sign the divorce and end this. ” Ethan says, cold and indifferent.Now, I understand that one incident can change your life forever.Three years ago, an incident like that turned my life upside down when my sister fled her wedding, leaving me to marry her fiancé.But, I loved him so I didn’t consider it a bad incident. Instead, it was a stroke of luck that the man I adored became my husband.But today, another incident awaits me. The life I built is on the verge of destruction.I stare at him in disbelief. He doesn’t look like the man who doted on me for three years. He looks like the man who can’t stand me because he wants to be with another woman.I look down at the Divorce Agreement placed on the table. My heart twists painfully.It’s funny how a signature can bind you into a marriage—a relationship you are supposed to cherish with all you have. But a signature can also end this relationship as if it were always fragile and meaningless.“ Please—Please don’t do

People are mingling and the soft piano tune is playing in the background.After I step inside the Hall of the Whitlock’s Mansion that is my home, several eyes turn to me. Most of them are family members who are aware of Lily’s side of the story. They hate me for trying to ruin their reputation three years ago by forcing Lily to make a run.They won’t believe me either because my elder sister is the beloved child. She is excellent at everything she does, and her beauty can charm a stone heart.That’s what she is doing even now. She is standing in the middle of the Hall with a group of people around her.Her dark locks cascade down her back in waves, complimenting her fair skin and small face.

His dark eyes meet mine, wide and intense, but there is something else—something off.He is blinking too much as if fighting to stay awake. My gaze drops to the crimson liquid beside his head. Blood.It’s pooling on the sidewalk, a stark contrast to the concrete.The color drains from my face. “ Ethan. ” I can’t take my eyes off the blood that keeps flowing and staining everything. It touches my fingers that are placed over his shoulders, and suddenly, the night when I almost killed him flashes before my eyes like a haunting ghost that refuses to leave me alone.I whisper, my voice trembling. “ Ethan, you are bleeding.”His eyes flutter closed, and for a terrifying moment, my heart almost comes to a stop.“Ethan!” I shout, shaking his shoulders, panic rising in my chest like a tidal wave.His head lolls to the side, and

    GraceThe music from the club thunders in my ears, but I barely focus on it. My attention is drawn towards the private room that is Tristin’s usual spot. I make up my mind about everything I will tell him. I will start by telling him that such projects are not as important as the trust between us. We don’t need to fight over such things and get angry at each other. Then, we can talk about everything that he has been keeping inside him. Yes—that’s the way. Mom says that communication saves relationships, and she has learned it the hard way. So, I should not let go of that important lesson.As I near the door, my heart starts pounding. What if he yells at me again?For a moment, I hesitate. I told him we should stay away from each other for a while, but I am the one running to him after just a few hours.This is so embarrassing. But no embarrassment is worse than the cold silence between us, I tell myself. Just as I reach the door, I find it open. When I peek inside, all thoughts dis
