Chasing My Ex-Wife Back After Divorce 23: Relief
Angela’s POV I felt relief replacing the hatred I felt for the bitch on the news on my screen. So she was married to Freddy. Why does this Freddy man look so familiar? Where did I know him from? I stared intently at photos of both of them sharing a hug where he looked at her like he had been in love with her for a long time which I knew was a lie. Jessica loved Brian like her life depended on it and I found it hard to believe that she would fall for someone like Freddy who didn't even measure up to Brian in looks. What exactly was happening? If Jessica was just announcing her marriage to Freddy after so many years, does that mean that she already moved on from Brian and I could have him all to myself? A grin spread in my lips but it quickly died as I remembered that I had told Brian I didn't want to meet him. Damn! What did I do? From this news, it could be that he is down and he would need me by his side. I quickly went through my contacts and to my favorites. Seeing h

Jessica’s POV I was the happiest right now. The joy that was bubbling within me at the fact that we were crossing over a million sales and clients were sending messages to invest made me feel really proud of myself. I had thought that I would not be able to do this since Nelson had given me an ultimatum. I didn't want my father's empire going into the hands of that sick bastard. I will do everything within my power to make sure he does not. Bishop was hosting the executive meeting and I didn't want to be seen right now after the news of my marriage to Freddy. Apparently, the press had taken it up way too much than I intended for it. The door to my office slid open and I lifted my gaze. Brian. He had come. I sat up, letting out a deep breath. “I didn't expect Bishop to fix a fast date like this.” I mused. He slowly bobbed his head, taking his seat. I stared at his features. He looked tired and… “I managed to have my lawyer make some drafted contracts done yesterday. So you c

BRIAN’S POV My meeting with Royals didn't go as expected. He knew things I didn't expect him to know which was shocking. I was starting to doubt that the reason behind our meeting was Angela. From the way he had ended our discussion, I had lots of doubts in my heart. I was meeting someone. Someone I must meet. I walked into the busy bar, angry that he had chosen this place. We could have used the usual restaurant. Does she even know that he was out this late? Was she okay with it? Scanning through the people inside, I searched for him abd finally sighted him sitting in the corner. Striding to the place, his back was turned to me so when I stopped, he twisted his head to the side. “Didn't expect you to be so intentional about meeting me.” He clicked his tongue, reaching for the whiskey before him. “Care for a glass?” He offered, his brown eyes meeting mine. I stared down at Freddy who wore a devious smirk on his face as he looked up at me, offering me a glass of whiskey

JESSICA’S POV Rain began to drizzle as I stood in the middle of the road with Brian who was staring at me like I was some ghost holding him from crossing the roads. I blinked as a raindrop splattered on the place I held him. “Hey, will the both of you leave the damn road?!” An angry driver yelled and it was then I jolted out of the haze of Brian’s bluish eyes. Cars were honking loudly as the drops of rain were made visible from their lights. I quickly dragged him away and led him to stay under a shade. “You are here?” His question was strange but I nodded. I had decided to come out to get some groceries since the kids were busy and I thought I could use some walk. I didn't expect to meet to meet Brian outside, being so drunk. “Why are you out here ?” I eyed him from head to toe. The way he gripped my hands made me let out a sigh. “Why are you out here? Shouldn't you be with your sweet husband?” He said, belching as he stumbled backward and enunciation the word, Sweet. I

Brian’s POV She was holding me. Looking at me with worry etched on her face as she helped me inside my house. I slurred some words as I fell on the bed. She turned to leave but stopped. Spinning to me as her brown curls followed the motion, I saw her- Ny Jessica contemplating but then moved to pull off my shoes and socks. Then the door opened… I awoke with a pounding ache in my head, rolling to the other side of the bed. I slipped one eye open, taking in my surroundings. The ceramic jug on the shelf indicated that I was in my room so I opened my eyes fully. I rolled over on my back and stared at the ceiling, I could hear my eardrums throbbing loudly in my ears. Gosh! How much did I drink? The door creaked open and I twisted my neck to the side. Angela stepped in, glancing at me as she dropped a cup of water and some tablets beside me. “You are awake. Take this.” She picked them up. I slowly slid up, letting my head fall back to the headboard. My brows scrunched as memories of the

Jessica’s POC I watched Brian stomp away. A weird sense of relief and satisfaction washed through as I watched him settle in his car. His eyes were fixed on the place Freddy and I were sitting. I bit down a snort and turned my attention fully to what Freddy was saying. After our wedding announcement, we have not been able to see it because I was busy overseeing the launching of the products and the progress but thankfully last night I sent him a message that we could meet today at my office. I did not expect him to oblige because Freddy didn't want to mix personal business with professional business. He had made it obvious at the very beginning. I didn't blame him though. I also didn't want that but I was starting to hear gossip that our marriage might be fake. No doubt Nelson trying to play his part and make people doubt the truth. The man was desperate. So desperate to have what is not his. I let out a deep breath. I had convinced Freddy with that reason and thankfully he rea

BRIAN’S POV I walked into the house, angry steam oozing off me as I slammed the door shut. The scene I had seen earlier kept replaying in my head. So she could not attend to me because she had lunch with him. I let out a sigh as I slumped on the couch, tugging at my tie. Angela appeared in my peripheral. She has been staying over at my place since I got drunk and I was going to tell her to leave very soon. Why? Because Jessica might get the wrong thought? To hell with her! I didn't care about what she was thinking. She wants to be with him. I will also choose to be with someone else since she made it so obvious to me that she has moved on. My heart squeezed tight in my chest. It was too late already. I lost her and I regretted it. My head fell back as I pinched the bridge of my nose. Breathing out through my parted lips, I noticed Angela placed a cup of cold water before me. I reached for it and downed it in seconds, letting the chill settle in me. “How did your meeting go?” S

ANGELA’S POV “What?!” I exclaimed as the line went off. I stared down at it in shock. What just… Brian just left the house a while ago and I have been told that he is now in prison. I clenched my fist tight. It must be Royals doing this. I quickly changed into a better outfit and rushed out of the house. On getting to the police station, I saw cops moving around. I approached the one behind the desk and the dirty eye he gave me almost made me waver but I buckled up some nerves and asked, “I am here to see Brian Knox.” I said breathlessly. I have been running. His eyes went from my head to my toe before looking down at his book. “Oh! You mean you are here for the mannerless egoistic bastard who punched someone and broke his cheekbone?” He asked, arching his brows in disgust. I closed my eyes briefly, reminding myself that there was no way yelling at him would solve anything so I plastered the most gentle smile I could. “I don't know who that is but Brian Knox is definitely not a

Chasing My Ex-Wife Back After Divorce 78
The quiet hum of the office enveloped Jessica as she worked diligently at her desk. The papers strewn before her detailed the intricacies of her latest case, but her focus faltered as her mind wandered. The events of the last few days had been overwhelming, to say the least. The precinct was still reeling from the chaos surrounding Angela's arrest, and tension hung in the air like an oppressive fog. Jessica leaned back in her chair, rubbing her temples as a faint headache began to pulse. She was no stranger to pressure, but something about this situation felt more complex than usual, as though there were pieces to the puzzle she hadn’t yet discovered.

Chasing My Ex-Wife Back After Divorce 72: Confused
BRIAN’S POV I stared at my phone, tapping my fingers against the desk as the ringtone droned on for the third time. No answer. Grey wasn’t exactly the most reliable guy when it came to picking up calls, but this felt different. The longer the silence stretched, the tighter the knot in my stomach became. He should’ve answered by now. Something wasn’t right. I hung up and dialed again, muttering under my breath. “Come on, Grey. Pick up.” Still nothing. Before I could decide whether to leave another message, my phone buzzed in my hand. An unknown number lit up the screen. For a second, I debated ignoring it, but instinct told me to answer. “This is Brian,” I said sharply. “Brian, this is Officer Carter from the precinct.” The name took a second to register. Carter. I’d spoken to him before—back when Angela first got arrested. His tone wasn’t urgent, but it wasn’t casual, either. “What’s going on?” I asked, already bracing myself for bad news. There was a pause
Chasing My Ex-Wife Back After Divorce 71: Released
**Angela’s POV** The metallic clang of the prison gate echoed behind me, a sound I thought I’d never hear again. For three long months, those gates had been my reality—cold, unyielding, and suffocating. Now, they were shutting behind me, leaving a hollow sense of disbelief in their wake. I took a hesitant step forward, my heart pounding in my chest as I squinted into the sunlight. Freedom felt foreign, as though I’d stepped into someone else’s life. A black car idled by the curb, sleek and polished, standing out against the drab prison exterior. I had no idea who was responsible for my release. The last time I’d heard from anyone, it was Brian's failed attempt to see me, blocked by the guards. I thought about him for a brief moment, then quickly shoved the thought away. The driver exited the car and opened the back door, gesturing for me to enter. I hesitated until I saw her. Sophia White. My mother. She stepped out of the car with the grace of someone who always command
Chasing My Ex-Wife Back After Divorce 70: Fake Proof
**Chapter: Nelson’s Fake Proof** Jessica sat at the head of the conference table, addressing the shareholders with calm confidence. Her words were measured, her gaze steady. Every eye in the room was fixed on her, a blend of respect and cautious curiosity. She was building momentum, solidifying their trust in her leadership, when her phone vibrated on the table. She glanced at the screen: her lawyer, Mr. Hendricks. “Excuse me for a moment,” she said, giving the shareholders a polite smile before stepping out of the room. “Mr. Hendricks?” she said, pressing the phone to her ear. “Ms. Holly, I need you to come to my office immediately,” his voice was tight, laced with urgency. Jessica frowned. “What’s wrong?” “It’s about Nelson. He claims to have evidence that may affect your position. I think it’s best we address this in person.” Jessica’s stomach sank. Nelson was like a thorn that refused to be removed, always scheming, always waiting for an opportunity to strik
