Chasing His Ex-wife Back Chapter 1
Evelyn stood in front of the mirror in her walk-in closet, smoothing her hands over the fitted red tea-length dress. It wasn’t the most extravagant outfit she owned, but it was elegant and understated, just how Sebastian liked it. Or so she believed. Tonight marked their third wedding anniversary. Sebastian didn't talk about any plans for a celebration, but Evelyn chose to surprise him. A serene, cozy meal at home, just the two of them. She devoted the day to organizing every detail meticulously, wishing to revive the bond they appeared to have forgotten. Her hand naturally placed itself on her abdomen, and a gentle smile appeared on her face. The secret she had held for the last week was eager to be revealed. This evening was the time she would reveal to him, the information she believed would alter everything. It would draw them nearer, heal the unseen fractures in their bond, and remind him of the affection they previously experienced. As she walked down the majestic staircase

Evelyn's hands shook as she gazed at the divorce documents that Sebastian had set in front of her. The striking title "Petition for Divorce" taunted her quietly, extinguishing every bit of hope she had held in her heart. Her whole existence, carefully constructed for him, has now collapsed into a pile of impersonal legal papers. For a considerable time, she remained still, attempting to comprehend everything. The text on the page became unclear, not due to her tears, although they were on the verge of falling, but from the overwhelming shock that held her. "Sign it, Evelyn," Sebastian stated bluntly, his voice lacking the affection she used to cherish. She glanced up at him, looking for any hint of guilt, sorrow, or even uncertainty in his expression. However, there was absolutely nothing. His demeanor was frigid, methodical, and restless, as though terminating their union was merely another transaction. "How can you accomplish this?" she finally uttered, her voice shaking with

The soft light of morning filtered into Evelyn’s small apartment through the blinds, casting the walls in subtle tones of gray. The atmosphere held a slight earthy odor, blending with the sharpness of her coffee. Sitting with her legs crossed on the worn couch, Evelyn clutched the mug firmly in her shaking hands. The heat from the cup was her sole comfort in a world that had been flipped around. The night before played back in her thoughts like a harsh trick. Sebastian's voice resonated, each word cutting deeper than the previous. "Evelyn, I can’t take this marriage any longer." "I do not desire you." "Sign the documents with your signature." A tremor ran through her body, and her chest constricted. She took another drink of the coffee, the warmth stinging her lips, yet the physical pain was trivial compared to the sorrow in her heart. Her gaze wandered to the pile of unopened boxes near the entrance. She hadn’t unpacked much after getting in late last night. The apartment

The relentless rain tapped on the windows of the grand Rodgers estate, providing a haunting backdrop to Evelyn's last moments in the residence she once regarded as home. Previously a representation of safety and affection, the lavish estate now resembled a tomb of shattered vows and unfulfilled dreams. The faint light seeping through the thick curtains created elongated shadows on the detailed woodwork, enhancing the feeling of unease. In the living room, Evelyn held her suitcase firmly in one hand, while her other hand was clenched into a fist at her side. Her wet coat stuck to her shoulders, the cold of the room penetrating her bones. Facing her, Sebastian reclined on the leather couch, his demeanor unfazed yet indifferent, as if her leaving was merely a bother. He didn't glance away from his phone at all. The light from the display highlighted his angular features, the apathy in his gaze piercing more profoundly than any spoken words could. "I've completed the documents," Evel

The cab raced along the rain-soaked streets of Chicago, the towering buildings glistening in the rain like distant recollections. Evelyn remained still in the rear seat, hugging herself closely. Her thoughts were a tempest of feelings, sorrow, frustration, and fatigue mixing as she departed from the traces of her former existence. She wasn’t grieving the estate or the unsuccessful union; she grieved the treachery, the shame, and the harsh apathy of the man she had once cherished. The taxi driver looked at her via the rearview mirror. "Where to, ma'am?" he inquired, his voice soft yet inquisitive. Evelyn paused. She lacked a plan, a destination, only the intense urge to flee. For a fleeting instant, the burden of the unfamiliar loomed over her menacingly. Yet, taking a calming breath, she mentioned a simple hotel located on the edge of the city. It wasn’t significant, but it would provide her a space to reflect, to exhale, and to organize her upcoming actions. The cab arrived at

The small apartment Lila had found for Evelyn was nothing like the luxurious mansion she had once shared with Sebastian, but it was exactly what she needed. The building stood at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, surrounded by tall oaks whose golden leaves whispered in the crisp autumn wind. It wasn’t grand, but it felt safe, and for the first time in years, Evelyn felt a sense of control over her own life.As she stepped into the one-bedroom unit, Evelyn ran her fingers over the walls, noting the chipped paint and the faint smell of lavender from a diffuser left by the previous tenant. The living room was small but cosy, with a worn couch and a coffee table that had seen better days. A bay window overlooked a small garden, the kind of view that invited a moment of calm reflection.“This is perfect,” Evelyn murmured to herself, setting down her suitcase.Lila showed up shortly afterward carrying a box of necessary items. With her vibrant red hair and contagious grin, she illuminated the

Evelyn remained still in her tiny apartment, her fingers softly touching her rounded stomach. The conversation with Dr. Meyers resonated in her mind: "It's a boy, Evelyn." "Everything appears to be fantastic." A young male. Evelyn envisioned countless possibilities for the future, many of which revolved around a life that now felt so far away. She had never really wished for one gender rather than the other, but once the doctor delivered the news, her heart raced, and she sensed the world’s weight change. Her initial thought was of Sebastian. The man she once thought would stand with her through all things—his hand holding hers, a mutual happiness in parenting, their child's initial steps, the first words spoken, the tiny moments that turned into cherished memories. He ought to have been here, next to her. They ought to have been collaborating on plans. However, the divorce documents had broken all of that apart. The aspiration of building a family with him had been torn apart by

The morning light streamed through the bay window, spreading golden tones throughout Evelyn’s cozy apartment. She was seated at the dining table, a hot cup of tea in her hands, her look faraway as she contemplated the happenings of the last few days. The awareness that she was expecting a son brought her a blend of happiness and sadness. Evelyn started to create a list of baby names, her notebook spread open before her. She ran her fingers over the names she had written, Elijah, Caleb, Aiden. Every name held a distinct significance, a unique potential for her son’s future. She smiled gently, envisioning how he might appear. Would he inherit her auburn hair or Sebastian’s striking blue eyes? Her nose or his pronounced jawline? Yet the idea of Sebastian pierced her heart with a wave of sorrow. She hadn’t received any word from him since her departure. No calls, no messages—nothing. It felt as though he had completely wiped her out of his existence. Evelyn couldn’t determine whether sh

Sebastian was seated in his office, the light from his laptop illuminating his face with stark shadows. The room was pristine, as usual, yet it seemed cold, devoid of life. Piles of documents and folders encircled him, but his attention was directed elsewhere. He reclined in his leather chair, tousling his unkempt hair with a hand. Evelyn's comments lingered in his thoughts, piercing more profoundly than any failed business transaction. "You gave up that right when you selected Vanessa." He let out a sigh and looked through the folder on his desk, packed with pictures and notes from the investigator he employed. Pictures of Evelyn holding hands with Mason and Maya, her expression tender with affection, gazed back at him. It was a life he ought to have belonged to. The investigator's records elaborated on her independent graphic design projects, her serene existence in a simple apartment, and the childcare facility she visited with the twins. Sebastian ran his finger along a photo o

Evelyn's hands shook while she secured Mason in his car seat. Her thoughts raced, her feelings a chaotic blend of anger, fear, and uncertainty. She didn’t anticipate encountering Sebastian, especially not in this manner, and definitely not after such a long time. Maya softly whined from her seat, feeling her mother’s anxiety. Evelyn took a deep breath and put on a grin as she reached out to caress her daughter's cheek. "It's fine, darling." "Mommy's okay," she whispered, although her tone revealed her discomfort. But was she okay? Sebastian's unexpected arrival had unsettled her, bringing up recollections she had fought diligently to conceal. For months, she had been reconstructing her life, establishing a secure, stable environment for her kids. Seeing him again felt as if someone had pulled the rug from beneath her. Evelyn settled into the driver’s seat, clutching the steering wheel firmly. She couldn't afford to linger on this—not at this moment. She needed to complete e

Evelyn rose to the noise of Mason wailing in his crib. The time displayed on her bedside clock was 2:47 a.m. She rubbed her eyes, the fatigue of raising a child alone seeping into her bones. For a short while, she imagined how it would feel to have someone alongside her, someone to share the late-night awakenings and the ongoing anxiety that accompanied raising twins. However, that idea was temporary. The picture of Sebastian's face, frigid and apathetic as he gave her the divorce papers, flooded back. It was sufficient to propel her through the haze of exhaustion and into movement. She lifted Mason into her arms, his tiny body warm and shaking. "Quiet now, it’s fine, sweetheart," she whispered, softly swaying him. She inspected his diaper and then his bottle, ensuring that everything was proper. While she was feeding him, her thoughts drifted to the email she had received earlier that week. It wasn't merely a job prospect; it was a salvation. The opportunity to be employed by a re

The cheerful giggle of a baby resonated in the small apartment as Evelyn skillfully held two bottles of milk in one hand and repositioned the high chair with the other. The twins, just a few months old, made up her whole universe. Maya's deep eyes shimmered with intrigue, as young Mason laughed at the sound of the wind chimes near the window. Their arrival brought a happiness to the small apartment that Evelyn had never experienced before. Yet today, a darkness hung over Evelyn's heart. She received another email from the graphic design company she freelanced with, a proposal to move to a larger city if she wished to handle more distinguished projects. It was a chance that could transform her profession, yet the idea of dismantling her small, meticulously built haven frightened her. Once she laid the twins down for their nap, Evelyn settled by the bay window with her laptop. She had always hoped to provide Maya and Mason with a better life, one free from the burdens of her history.

Evelyn rose to a serene morning, with gentle sunlight streaming through the curtains, creating warm golden rays on the ground. The quiet of the apartment, the tranquility she had discovered in recent weeks, provided solace. However, the burden of her choice regarding Sebastian still remained in her thoughts. She had dedicated numerous hours in the past few days contemplating everything: Sebastian’s apology, his efforts to connect, and the way he had constantly assured her that nothing would separate them. However, following his betrayal, she questioned whether those promises were merely hollow phrases. Was he genuinely remorseful, or was he just attempting to mend something damaged, not entirely grasping the extent of the pain he had inflicted? While sipping her tea by the window, the gentle buzz of the city beneath reminded her that life kept progressing, even when she felt trapped in her own reflections. The only sound that filled the room was the rhythmic tapping of her fingers o
Chasing His Ex-wife Back chapter 19
Evelyn found herself contemplating the heaviness of Sebastian's words for days. He approached her, exposed and defenseless, conveying his remorse and his wish to seek forgiveness. However, Evelyn was uncertain whether it was sufficient. Is it possible for him to really change? Could she really rely on him enough to offer him another opportunity? Her heart was pained by the doubt, yet she would not make any choices without first reflecting on her emotions, and the truth of their circumstances. The next day, following Sebastian’s visit, Evelyn tried hard to resume her usual routine. She worked remotely, concentrated on her design assignments, and went to her prenatal check-ups. Yet, even during the silent times, the resonance of his presence lingered. His apology lingered in her mind, yet she couldn’t overlook the intricacy of her feelings. Whenever she believed she had control over the situation, she ended up questioning herself. At night, with the gentle murmur of urban noise coming
Chasing His Ex-wife Back chapter 18
The days that ensued were marked by a delicate feeling of equilibrium. Evelyn maintained her schedule of work, medical visits, and peaceful nights by herself in her flat, yet the emotional struggle between her history with Sebastian and the current life she aimed to build was growing harder to overlook. Sebastian’s efforts to be included in her life were constant, nearly overly constant. He called frequently, visited at least weekly, and brought small presents for the baby, a plush toy on one occasion, a baby blanket on another. He was making an effort, and Evelyn sensed it, yet the question remained: was he genuinely regretful, or was he merely attempting to atone for his past misdeeds? One afternoon, while she was at her small desk in her apartment creating a new design for a client, Evelyn's phone vibrated. It was a note from Sebastian. May I drop by later? I need to discuss something significant. Her heart raced, and she placed her pen aside, gazing at the message for an exten

The weeks that came after were a whirlwind of planning, minor wins, and increasing doubt. Evelyn felt conflicted between optimism and prudence as she moved through this new chapter of her life with Sebastian. His existence in her life was unmistakable, and despite her attempts to persuade herself that she could manage everything by herself, the reality was beginning to dawn on her. She didn't wish to face this by herself. However, that didn’t imply she was prepared to trust him anew. Every day appeared to present a new obstacle, medical visits, arranging the nursery, juggling professional duties with the physical demands of pregnancy, but amidst it all, Sebastian stayed a steady presence. He often called her to see how she was doing, providing assistance with whatever she required. It seemed as though he was attempting to wipe away the past, to compensate for all the moments he’d been missing, apathetic, and disloyal. Yet the pain persisted, hovering in the atmosphere like a dense
Chasing His Ex-wife Back chapter 16
The days went by in a haze of meetings, late-night drawings, and minor achievements. Evelyn had established a routine of balancing her job, her pregnancy, and the ongoing intricacies of her relationship with Sebastian. It wasn’t simple, but it was hers to manage. Sebastian's existence in her life was now unmistakable. He called often, inquired about the baby, and even assisted with grocery shopping or getting items she required for the nursery. His attempts were sincere, or at the very least, they appeared to be. However, each gesture, every kind remark, seemed infused with an underlying tension that Evelyn couldn't dispel. She was uncertain about how to release the past how to pardon the person who had wounded her so profoundly. He could be attempting, yet the agony remained, lurking in the silent times when she permitted herself to recall. One afternoon, as Evelyn was creating a new design for a nearby boutique, her phone vibrated with an unknown number. She paused briefly before
