Chasing Love After Divorce A stain on his ego
GENERALLexi twirled her wrist to skim at her watch, and she heaved when she realized that it was time for lunch. She hadn't even exhaled when the door opened and Donald tucked his head in. "Time for lunch!" He announced with a smile, waving.Lexi's lips curled into a grin, and she snickered, "You never missed the time." She joked, getting up from her seat.Donald walked up to her, snaked his arms around her waist, and pulled her closer to his body. He made an attempt to kiss her, but she smartly tilted her face, which made Donald kiss her cheeks. He obviously noticed what just happened, but he chuckled. He presumed that she wasn't comfortable yet."Should we go for lunch now?" He asked."Of course. I'm freaking famished right now. I have been waiting for the lunch hour like it's an hour of redemption," she let out."Okay. Let's go," he muttered, and the duo stepped out of Lexi's office.On getting out, Donald sighted Ryan, getting his food from the delivery guy. "I guessed Mr. Ryan d

GENERAL"Welcome, ma'am. Welcome, sir," Sarah greeted Lexi and Ryan as they returned from lunch. Lexi responded with a smile and said, "Get me a cup of coffee." Darting her gaze over Donald, she asked, "Do you care for?" "Uhm... Yes. A cup of coffee for me too," he replied, and Sarah left to carry out the task she was given.Donald and Lexi sauntered into Lexi's office and went to settle in the visitor's corner, where there were two couches facing each other and a small table in between. Five minutes later, Sarah returned with two cups of coffee and placed them carefully on the table."Thank you, Sarah," Donald muttered smilingly, and Sarah's face flushed. She lowered her head and nodded before she walked out.Lexi picked up a cup of coffee, placed one leg on the other, and folded one of her arms as she took the cup to her lips. However, as she sipped the coffee, the door flew open.The banging sound of the door made Lexi and Donald glance at each other, and they hurriedly stood up

LEXII was satisfied with what I did. The look on Ryan's face when I was pouring the coffee on his head cannot be forgotten in a while. I have it engraved in my head. I had the urge to laugh at him when I suspected him battling with his emotions, especially his temperament, but I held back. With what I did, I knew he would not come back to work for me henceforth, and I couldn't be happier.As I pretended to work, I felt Donald's gaze over me, and it made me uncomfortable. How could I have forgotten that I still have a lot to explain and it isn't over yet? Gosh! Can't he just let things be and pretend like nothing happened?"Don't you think you owe me an explanation?" My greatest worry happened. He finally broke the silence and demanded an explanation.I shut my eyes, gritted my teeth dejectedly, and shook my head unhurriedly. With a smile, I opened my eyes and raised my head."An explanation? What explanation?" I questioned, feigning ignorance, and I hoped he wouldn't drag up the issu

GENERALDonald stepped out of his car and walked straight into his flat. He was staying on the first floor of a two storey-building. Getting into his apartment, he tossed his bag, flinging it on the couch, removed his suit, undid his tie, and collapsed onto the couch, flopping his hands and leaning his head backward. He had been exhausted from the day's activities. It was evident in his eyes and the way he breathed.He took his phone and grimaced at the screen, which revealed Lexi's picture as the wallpaper, and he sighed. They didn't talk to each other since the argument. Lexi was too stubborn to apologize to him and he was also standing on his manly ego. He missed her.Swiping the phone, he went to the recent calls and stared at Lexi's number, contemplating whether to reach out to her or not. The urge to give in and call her first was strong but he overcame it, turned the phone off, hissed, and tossed the phone to the side.Sitting up, he thought about the whole thing. From the orig

GENERALJasmine stretched her neck from time to time, peeking through the gate and waiting for Ryan to come out of the mansion. She nibbled on her lips as she anticipated him. Last night, she made the decision to go to his house before his waking up hour and wait for him outside.Even though she knew the truth, she refused to conclude they had broken up since Ryan hadn't asked her for it. Until it is official, they are still couples, which was the reason she decided to get everything over and done with.As soon as Ryan stepped out of his house, his gateman rushed to open the gate since he would be driving his car out. The moment the gateman opened the gate, Jasmine jumped into the compound and sped toward Ryan's moving car.He scoffed when he saw Jasmine. "It is too early to deal with her," He let out, swirling his tongue over his lips as he halted a few inches away from her. He sighed, throwing his head backward and shutting his eyes. He already knew that he was going to have a bad

GENERALJasmine's blood boiled. She thought Emily was about to act the way she acted the last time she was there to look for Ryan, so she had mentally prepared herself to return the same energy without being at the losing end.However, Emily surprised her when she got to where she was standing. She halted in front of Jasmine, folded her arms, and said, "You must not let go of Ryan. You will be a fool to lose this battle to Lexi," Emily spurted out, venom in her voice. The last thing she wanted was to have Lexi as her sister-in-law again.Deep down, she was a bit scared of her. Not after her last encounter with her. Lexi had become fearless and independent, which was her fear that she wouldn't be able to order her around the way she did in the past.Jasmine's guards crumbled immediately. She blinked and sniffed back the snots, threatening to fall out of her nostrils. "How, Emily? He clearly doesn't want me anymore. That wench has blinded his vision with her father's wealth," Jasmine le

LEXI"WHAT!" I blurted out, utterly speechless. This was all he claimed he found out. That Ryan was my ex-boyfriend? And how did he even come up with such a theory? I couldn't help but dart my gaze over him. Donald is everything a lady wants, but one thing is certain: he is slow."Don't even think of lying, Lexi. I know you guys had a relationship in the past, and he acted like a dick at the end, which was the reason you hated him so much." He continued defensively and unblinkingly. He was so certain about what he was saying.I felt the urge to erupt into laughter, but I held back, pinching myself and reminding myself that it would be rude to burst into laughter in this situation. Struggling with my laughter, I raised my head and shook it negatively. "You are wrong this time, Donald. He isn't my boyfriend or ex-boyfriend," I said, pausing briefly.Sighing, I continued, "He was once my stalker," I revealed, earning a deepened gaze and raised brows from Donald. He exclaimed, "What!""Ye

LEXI Two weeks later, "Have you packed the bags into the car?" I asked Ryan as we stepped out of the company. "Yes, ma'am. I packed everything you brought to the office this morning. He responded humbly, causing me to tilt my head and sway suspicious eyes over him. It had been two weeks since he started acting this way, and I didn't think I would ever get used to his new attitude. Did I say that I was disappointed when I realized that he hadn't returned to his usual self? Will I be called a mad woman if I confess that I prefer the old Ryan to the new one? Don't judge me. I'm certain every lady prefers the bad guys. I retracted my gaze and began walking to the car. Hopping into the backseat, Donald also joined from the other side. Ryan went to sit beside the driver taking us to the airport, and the journey began. Forty-five minutes later, we got to the airport and were assisted to the runaway by some of the staff there. The jet was there, shining and ready to fly us to Korea. "Do

Chasing Love After Divorce Father And Daughter Moment
GENERALIsabelle ran out of the classroom when she sighted the chauffeur. "Uncle!" She shouted, running toward him. The chauffeur tilted his head in the direction of the voice and smiled brightly when he saw the young girl running toward him."How was school today, Isabelle?" He asked, holding her hand and taking the lunch box and backpack from her. "It was fine, uncle. It feels good to be in school again," she answered heartily, leaping and reciting a nursery rhyme as they walked to the car.Getting into the car, she hopped into the back seat, and he assisted her to do her seatbelt. Afterward, he went back to his seat to begin the trip.However, before he could do that, Isabelle stopped him. "Excuse me, uncle," she said. The chauffeur's hand froze. He left the key he was about to turn in the ignition and tilted his head to give her the attention she requested. "Is there any problem, Isabelle? Do you want me to do something for you?"Clamping her mouth, she shook her head. "Can yo
Chasing Love After Divorce Back To Work
LexiDriving into the car park, I turned off the ignition and stepped out of the car. I walked into the elevator, and a ding sound ripped through the air as it reached the floor where my office was located. The moment I stepped out, a loud sound filled the air, startling me and causing me to take a few steps backward. Widening my eyes to look in the direction of the sound, I realized that it was a party popper. Before I could comprehend what just happened, I heard, "Welcome back to work, President Lexi. And congratulations on your recovery," my staff said in chorus, and that was when I saw everyone's faces. Aside from the staff from other departments, the office area is filled with staff from the Presidential Department.My heart tingled with admiration and excitement. I loved that. They all clapped their hands afterward. Donald sauntered out of their midst, holding a bouquet of red roses. "Welcome back to work, Lexi," he mumbled, handing over the flower to me.I narrowed my gaze as
Chasing Love After Divorce My Woman
GENERAL"Can you hear me?" Lexi asked again when he didn't answer her previous questions. She stood up and held his arm, her brows raising and her eyes widening.Since he couldn't talk because of the oxygen fixed in his nose, he blinked his eyes and nodded to her question.At the same time, Zoe and Emily ran over and intentionally pushed Lexi away. Thankfully, she was able to maintain her composure with the help of the bed. She knew the two witches were just trying to frustrate her and make her act like a madwoman, but she would forgive them today and deal with them another time."My son!" Zoe called. "Brother!" Emily spurted out, holding his arm. The duo smiled, looking at Ryan, whose gaze was focused on Lexi."How are you feeling?" Zoe retracted her gaze from him and moved it to Emily, "Go and inform the doctor that he's awake," she ordered.Nodding, Emily left the room and returned almost immediately with the same doctor who attended to Lexi. As soon as he saw Lexi, his brows cre
Chasing Love After Divorce Lazy Ryan
GENERALAnger coursed through Zoe's veins as she heard what Lexi said. It was as though she was slapped hard in the face. Her face turned crimson red with lines of anger scribbled on her facial features. She gritted her teeth and took steps forward. "What! What did you just say? How dare you call me by my name?" She shouted, her veins popping out due to anger.Lexi chuckled nonchalantly, "What was I supposed to call you with? Your daughter's name? Zoe is your name, so I will call you by that. Or... What were you expecting me to call you?...." She paused, raised her brows, and glanced at her quizzically. When she finally thought of something, she erupted into laughter, covering her mouth with her hands, "Don't tell me you are expecting me to call your mother? Oh my goodness! Have you forgotten that you are not my mother? You reminded me many times back in the days," She taunted with her words, ignoring the murderous glares emitting from them. She was less concerned. She loved it. Tha
Chasing Love After Divorce He Is Her Hero
GENERALLexi darted her gaze between her parents. She found their reactions suspicious and scary. Her mind missed a beat. Has something happened to Ryan? "Mom...? Dad...? Where is Ryan?" She asked again, her eyes dilating in anticipation of what her parents' response would be. She just hoped that it wouldn't be bad news. She owed him a lot. She would have been dead before they got saved if he hadn't intervened and stalked enough time for them. The last thing she wanted to hear was that he was gone. "The doctor said that he was in a more critical situation, and it was only by a miracle that the bullet didn't get to his heart because it was just a tiny space between his heart and the spot the bullet pierced into. He has been operated on and is out of danger, but he hasn't opened his eyes since then," her mother explained calmly. There was guilt in her eyes. Even though Ryan had once maltreated their daughter, they couldn't help but feel indebted to him. It would have been a differ
Chasing Love After Divorce Where Is Ryan?
GENERAL FLASHBACK TO 12 HOURS AGO Ryan sat in his car, resting his arm on the steering wheel and staring at the mansion in front of him. He was contemplating whether to enter or not. He was there to check on Lexi, but he was scared to step in because he didn't know the reaction he would meet. The memory of the humiliation he received at the hospital was still vivid in his head, and he wouldn't want to suffer the same thing again. "You just need to go. Isabelle isn't her daughter alone. She is also yours," he mentally told himself. Shutting his eyes for a few seconds, he sighed and opened them back. Just as he unlocked the door and was about to step out, he sighted Lexi running out of the house with an oversized gown that she clutched to avoid stepping on as she walked. His brows crinkled. Why was she running? Where was she going? She looked like she was in a haste, yet she didn't take a car with her. He suspected something and decided to discreetly follow her to find out what was h
Chasing Love After Divorce Perfect Timing
GENERALSilence overwhelmed the atmosphere at the sound of the gunshot. Ryan glared at Jasmine, shocked and afraid. What was that sound? Where did it come from? "Mommy!" Isabelle cried out, her voice lingering in the air with a lot of worry mixed with it. Her voice jerked Ryan out of his reverie, and he looked behind him. That was when he realized what was happening. It turned out that the gunshot that reverberated in the room was real and Lexi had been shot instead. Blood gushed out of her side as she clutched it tightly with her hands. Her body shook. "Argh!" Lexi winced as her body hurriedly wallowed in the pool of pain. An excruciating pang of pain coursed through her like fire on dried leaves. Ryan blinked with his mouth widened, his eyes darkened, and tears rushed to his lids. What! Jasmine really did that...? "How dare you, Jasmine?" He growled. His voice resounded like thunder, sending fears down the spines of Jasmine and her men, but they were smart enough to conceal th
Chasing Love After Divorce Savior
GENERALLexi flinched in fear as she felt a liquid substance splashing over her. Unlocking her eyes swiftly in fear, she was shocked to find Jasmine, standing over her and pouring water over her and her daughter. The craziest part of it was it wasn't clean water, and it was already emitting a stench odor. She almost puked as the horrible smell drifted into her nose. Thankfully, she had shielded Isabelle, which protected her from the water. "What are you doing, Jasmine? What water is this?" She yelled at her, hovering over her daughter. Her voice was shaky and pathetic. None of her words wafted into Jasmine's ears. She didn't stop pouring the water until she finished the one in the bucket. Then, she flung the bucket away. "What do you think I am doing? I am trying to wake you up. Is that a bad thing to do?" She responded to her with an indifferent expression. She was totally not bothered and nonchalant about her actions. "And you think waking me up this way is the best way? How
Chasing Love After Divorce LEXI IS MISSING
GENERAL "She is not picking up," Lexi's mother informed with concern in her voice, bringing her phone from her ear and staring at the screen, which was displaying her daughter's name.Mr. Alexandra's eyes skimmed over the clock that was glued at the top of the entrance. It was already 8 pm, and she hadn't gotten back since she left home. She didn't dress extra when she left in the afternoon, so they didn't think where she was going was far. They wondered if she was still with Donald, as she had said before she left the house.Mr. Alexandra picked up his phone and put a call across to Donald, who picked up on the second ring. "Hello, President Alexandra," Donald greeted on the other side of the phone the moment he picked up. For some reason, he found the call surprising, and he was curious. Did something happen to Lexi? It had been days since he last saw her because he had been busy at the office. Since the CEO wasn't around, he had to take over so that there wouldn't be any flop i
