Chasing Back My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 157
REINA Ethan's arms still wrapped around me, holding me together as we sat on the couch, the silence between us heavy with unspoken fears. My mind raced with the same haunting question: who could be monstrous enough to steal my child?"Who could do this?" I whispered, my voice barely audible, the words trembling on my lips.Ethan's eyes narrowed, his brow furrowed in concentration. "Victor's still a possibility," he said, his tone laced with concern.I shuddered at the mention of his name, memories of Victor's obsession with me flooding back. His fixation had nearly destroyed us before, and now...now he might have Andrew."But Lucy..." Ethan trailed off, his voice dripping with skepticism.My mind flashed back to Lucy's betrayal, her deceitful smile etched in my memory. "She's capable of this, isn't she?" I asked, my words laced with venom.Ethan's expression turned grim, his jaw clenched. "We can't rule her out," he admitted.I thought of Lucy's cunning, her ability to manipulate ot

REINA Detective James arrived, his eyes scanning the clue. "Where did you find this?" he asked, his gaze locking onto the scribbled words. "Hidden behind Andrew's nightstand," Ethan replied, his voice firm. Detective James's gaze narrowed. "The handwriting looks familiar," he muttered, his mind already racing with connections. I leaned in, studying the clue intensely. A faint symbol caught my eye, stirring a mix of fear and recognition. My heart skipped a beat as I whispered, "The Omega sign." Ethan's eyes met mine, filled with questions. "What does it mean?" he asked. Memories flooded back, and I hesitated, unsure how much to reveal. "It's Victor's organization," I explained. "They used it as a signature, a calling card." Detective James's expression turned grim, his jaw clenched. "This confirms Victor's involvement," he stated. Ethan's face darkened. "We have to bring him in," he urged. But I knew Victor's reach was vast, his resources and connections a formidable obstacl

REINA We burst through the door, guns drawn, our flashlights illuminating the cramped space. Andrew's whimpering grew louder, and my heart raced with every step. Ethan swept the room, his gaze locking onto the figures huddled in the corner. Victor's henchmen. My blood boiled. "Let him go," Ethan growled, his gun trained on the nearest thug. The henchmen sneered, their eyes cold and calculating. One stepped forward, Andrew clutched in his meaty grasp. "You'll never take him alive," he snarled. My eyes locked on Andrew, his eyes wide with fear. Ethan edged forward, his gun unwavering. "Let. Him. Go." The standoff was palpable, tension hanging like a live wire. The henchman's grip on Andrew tightened, and I saw red. "Don't hurt him!" I screamed. Ethan's voice remained calm, icy. "Last chance." The henchman sneered, but a flicker of doubt danced in his eyes. Suddenly, he shoved Andrew forward, and I lunged, catching my son in a desperate hug. Ethan's gun never wavered. "G

ETHANI studied Lucy's face, searching for any sign of deception. Her eyes seemed sincere, but I knew better than to trust appearances."Reina, we need to consider Lucy's offer," I said, my voice low and measured.Reina's gaze narrowed. "We can't trust her, Ethan.""I know," I replied. "But Lucy knows Victor's plans. Her information could be invaluable."Reina's expression remained skeptical. "And what's to stop her from betraying us again?"I turned to Lucy. "That's the question, isn't it?"Lucy's eyes flashed with determination. "I swear, Ethan, I've had enough of Victor's manipulation. I want out."I weighed the risks and benefits, my mind racing with scenarios.With Lucy's help, we might finally bring Victor down.But at what cost?If Lucy betrayed us again...No, I couldn't let doubt consume me."Alright, Lucy," I said, my voice firm. "You're in. But one wrong move, and you're out."Lucy's face lit up with gratitude.Reina's disapproval was palpable."Let's move," I said, my gaze

ETHAN I sprang into action, my reflexes honed from years of training. Victor's finger tightened on the trigger, and I knew I had mere milliseconds to react. "Andrew, no!" Reina screamed. I lunged forward, my body shielding Andrew from the potential bullet. My hand closed around Victor's wrist, twisting it sharply. The gun clattered to the deck, skidding across the floor. Victor's eyes widened in rage, his face reddening. "You'll pay for this," he snarled. I slammed him against the boat's railing, my grip unyielding. "Reina, get Andrew to safety," I ordered. Reina's tear-stained face appeared beside me, her eyes locked on Andrew. "Come on, baby," she whispered, pulling Andrew into a tight hug. Lucy stepped forward, her gun trained on Victor. "It's over," she said, her voice firm. Victor's gaze flicked between us, his expression twisted in defeat. "You'll never win," he spat. I tightened my grip on Victor's wrist. "We already have," I growled. Victor's eyes gleamed wit

Reina “Do you want a new car? Or a new apartment?” Ethan teased. “Anyone, my love. A Lamborghini won't be bad, you know.” I turned to face him, and there it was, the smile I had come to know and love over the years. It was the smile that had carried me through the darkest days, the one that had reassured me when I didn’t know how to move forward. The evening was calm and beautiful qne Andrew was at a friend’s house for a sleepover, and Ethan and I were alone for the first time in a while. Alone, but not lonely. We were never lonely when we had ourselves. “I’m looking,” I said softly, walking toward him. “And I see a family that’s been through hell and back, and yet we still survived it.” Ethan reached out to pull me into his arms and held me tight as if he was scared to let me go. “We have always been strong. It was just a matter of time before we realized it.” I rested my head on his chest, listening to the steady beat of his heart. This was home. This was everything

Reina It was a morning like any other, except it wasn’t. I had just received the news I had been waiting for, hoping for, but still uncertain if it would ever come true. I had gotten another job. It was a job that would challenge me, push me out of my comfort zone, and finally allow me to make a real name for myself in the world I had always longed to be part of. As I stood in the kitchen, staring at the email, I could not stop the tears that filled my eyes. I had worked so hard for this moment, and now that it was here, I was overwhelmed with gratitude and disbelief. “Reina? What’s wrong?” Ethan asked, stepping into the room. His voice was soft, and his concern was evident in his eyes. I couldn’t speak at first, so I just handed him my phone, pointing to the email. He took it from me, his eyes scanning the screen. His face lit up as he read the words. “Wait… you got it? You really got it?” I nodded, my throat tight. “Yes. It’s real, Ethan. They offered me the position. I t

Reina The day had finally come. The day I had been both dreading and hoping for. The day Ethan and I would renew our vows. I had spent so much time imagining what it would feel like, but now that the moment was here, I was filled with excitement and a little nervousness. After everything we had been through, I was not sure how I would feel standing up in front of our friends and family, saying the same vows we made years ago. But this time, I was going to say them with more meaning, more depth, and more love than I ever had before. Ethan had gone above and beyond to make this day perfect, and I had already walked into the garden where it would all happen. It looked like a dream. “Mommy, you look beautiful!” Andrew said, his eyes wide with admiration as he helped me adjust my dress. I laughed softly. “Thank you, baby. You look very handsome too.” He beamed in his little tuxedo, looking just like his father. When Ethan walked in to check on me, I could not help but smil

: A New Beginning (Ethan POV) --- I never thought I’d feel this nervous again. The last time I felt anything close to this was the first time I asked Reina out. But now, standing in our living room with the small box in my pocket, I felt like a teenager unsure if the girl would say yes. Andrew was asleep in his room, and Reina was curled up on the couch, reading a book. Her hair was loosely tied back, and she was wearing one of my old sweatshirts. She looked so comfortable, so at peace, and for a moment, I just stood there, watching her. “Why are you staring at me like that?” she asked, not even looking up from her book. I chuckled nervously. “Do I need a reason to stare at my wife?” She finally looked up, raising an eyebrow. “No, but it’s weird when you’re just standing there silently. What’s going on?” I took a deep breath and walked over, sitting beside her. “Reina, can we talk?” She frowned, closing her book. “Is something wrong?” “No, nothing’s wrong,” I assured her. “In

Ethan “ A therapist? We are going to see a therapist, Ethan?” Reina blurted out and I had to calm her down that it's for the better. “Yes. I made that decision and I have already paid for a session. It is a good thing and I think our marriage will get better.” “Oh dear. I'm just scared.” *** Sitting across from Reina in the therapist’s office felt a little weird and I was trying to keep up. This was the first time we had actually met with a therapist about us. The therapist, a calm woman in her mid-50s named Dr. Laura smiled gently at us. “Thank you for coming today. The first step to healing is often the hardest, so I commend you both for being here.” I glanced at Reina, who gave me a small, nervous smile. “We are ready,” I said, squeezing her hand. “Good. Why don’t we start with why you’re here? What made you decide to seek therapy now?” Dr. Laura asked. I looked at Reina, silently asking if she wanted to go first. She nodded and took a deep breath. “I think we h

Reina Evans was at my house again. This time, I was very convinced that he had something off his sleeves. How can someone who I haven't seen in years suddenly show up in the new country where I relocated to? Has he been stalking me all these years? Evans stood at the door, his hands shoved in his pockets, and today he looked so confident in himself. But, I was here to destroy whatever confidence he had. I had hoped I would see the last of him after his first visit, but here he was again, uninvited and unwelcome. “What are you doing here again, Evans? Haven't I told you that I don't want you around me?” I thundered and my pulse was racing. “I needed to talk to you,” he responded calmly, despite my raging anger. “I don’t think we got to finish our conversation the last time.” “There’s nothing left to talk about,” I said, stepping out onto the porch and closing the door behind me. I didn’t want Ethan or Andrew overhearing any of this. “Reina, please,” he said, his eyes pleadin

Ethan I didn’t know where I was driving. I just needed to get out of the house. My hands gripped the steering wheel tightly, my mind racing with thoughts of Reina, Evans, and everything that had gone wrong. Evans. Just hearing his name made my blood boil. The nerve of him to show up out of nowhere, to text me like he was some concerned friend. And Reina, why hadn’t she told me right away? She keeps doing things like this and it pisses me off. She of all people knows that something like this was the cause of our problem sometime ago. I pulled into an empty parking lot and turned off the engine. When I finally walked back into the house hours later, the living room was dimly lit, and Reina was sitting on the couch, her knees pulled up to her chest. She looked up as I entered, her eyes red and puffy. “You are back,” she said softly. I didn’t answer, dropping my keys on the table and heading for the kitchen. “Ethan,” she called after me with her voice trembling. I paused, leani

ReinaI was wiping down the kitchen counter when the doorbell rang. Andrew was upstairs, resting after a long day of physical therapy, and Ethan had stepped out to pick up a few things from the store.It was odd for someone to come by unannounced, especially at this hour. I wiped my hands on a towel and I headed for the door to check who was there. I was so curious and at the same time cautious that I checked the security camera three times. When I opened it, my heart stopped. I thought I was dreaming or something. “Evans,” I whispered, gripping the doorframe right. He was standing there, looking exactly as I remembered him. He was quite tall, with those piercing blue eyes and well shaved beards. But seeing him now didn’t fill me with the same warmth it once did. Instead, it felt like a bucket of cold water had been splashed over me.“Reina,” he said, his voice soft but steady. “I hope I’m not intruding.”“What are you doing here?” I asked, my voice sharper than I intended. He w

Ethan “Our anniversary was tomorrow?!” That was my exact reaction when I checked the calendar and I saw that I had long forgotten the date of our anniversary . An idea had come to me while sitting in the car, waiting for Reina to return from the grocery store. Our anniversary was tomorrow, and I wanted to do something special. Something that would remind her of the good times we had shared before everything got complicated.I had been racking my brain all week, trying to come up with the perfect plan. Reina deserved something meaningful, something that was not just flowers and a card. She needed to see how much she meant to me.“Okay, Ethan,” I muttered to myself as I parked in front of the house. “You will get our way around this.”The plan was simple yet heartfelt. I was planning a surprise dinner at the place where we had had our first official date before we got married. It was not the fanciest restaurant, but it held a special place in our hearts. I had reserved a private cor
