Chasing The Stubborn Ex-Wife She moved on
Hunter slammed his office door shut, the sound echoing through the hallway. His employees exchanged uneasy glances, quickly returning to their work as his heavy footsteps approached. He stormed into the open workspace, his voice sharp and cutting. "Where’s the report I asked for this morning?" he barked at a young intern who was nervously shuffling papers. "Did I hire you to sit around and look busy, or to actually get work done?"The intern stammered, "I-I’m almost done, sir. I just need—""Almost done isn’t good enough," Hunter snapped, cutting him off. "I don’t pay you for almost. Get it on my desk in the next 10 minutes, or don’t bother coming back tomorrow."The intern nodded frantically, his face pale, as Hunter turned on his heel and marched back to his office. The tension in the room was palpable, and no one dared to speak until his door closed behind him.Back in his office, Hunter slumped into his chair, running a hand through his hair in frustration. How dare Evelyn ignore

Hunter returned to his house late in the evening, his tie loosened and his expression weary. The weight of the day’s work hung heavily on his shoulders, and all he wanted was a quiet evening to unwind. But as he stepped into the living room, he was met with the sight of Sophia sprawled on the couch, surrounded by shopping bags and dresses laid out like trophies.“Hunter!” Sophia exclaimed, her voice dripping with excitement as she jumped up to greet him. “You’re finally home! Look at all the dresses I bought today. I wanted your opinion on which one I should wear to the gala next week.”Hunter barely glanced at the dresses, his disinterest evident as he walked past her toward the kitchen. “I’m sure whatever you choose will be fine, Sophia. You don’t need my input.”Sophia’s smile faltered, but she quickly recovered, following him with one of the dresses in hand. “But Hunter, this is important. I want to look perfect for you. Don’t you care?”Hunter poured himself a glass of water, his

Hunter sat in his office, the morning sunlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows, casting a golden glow over the sleek, modern space. He leaned back in his leather chair, scrolling through his phone as he sipped his coffee. His eyes scanned the headlines absently until one caught his attention: "Daughter Takes Over Father’s Legacy: Evelyn Carter Named CEO of StarLink."His coffee cup froze halfway to his lips as he stared at the article. There, right below the headline, was a picture of Evelyn. She looked poised, confident, and radiant in a tailored suit, her hair swept back in a sleek updo. The caption beneath the photo read: Evelyn Carter, daughter of the late Robert Carter, steps into her father’s shoes as the new CEO of StarLink.Hunter’s jaw tightened as he read the article, his mind racing. Evelyn is the CEO of StarLink now? He couldn’t believe it. The Evelyn he knew—the one he had married and then divorced—had always been intelligent and driven, but he had never i

The morning sun streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows of Evelyn’s office, casting a warm glow over the sleek, modern space. She sat at her desk, her fingers tapping nervously on the polished surface as she reviewed the latest financial reports. The numbers were grim, but she refused to let despair take hold. She had taken on the role of CEO to honor her father’s legacy, and she wasn’t about to let StarLink crumble under her watch.Just as she was about to dive deeper into the reports, her secretary, Lisa, knocked lightly on the door before stepping inside. “Ms. Carter, I have some news.”Evelyn looked up, her expression calm but curious. “What is it, Lisa?”Lisa hesitated for a moment, her tone cautious. “We’ve received word that a major investor is interested in partnering with StarLink. They’re prepared to make a significant investment to help stabilize the company.”Evelyn’s eyes widened, a flicker of hope igniting in her chest. “That’s incredible news! Who is it? Do we ha

Before she could respond, the door swung open, and Vinni strode in, her presence commanding the room. “Sorry I’m late,” she said, her tone breezy but her eyes sharp as they landed on Hunter. “Traffic was a nightmare.” Hunter’s smirk faltered for a moment, his eyes narrowing as he recognized Vinni. “Vinni. What a pleasant surprise.” Vinni flashed him a saccharine smile as she took a seat next to Evelyn. “Likewise, Hunter. It’s been a while. Still causing trouble, I see?” Hunter’s jaw tightened, but he quickly recovered, his smirk returning. “Just doing business, Vinni. Nothing personal.” Vinni leaned forward, her tone dripping with sarcasm. “Of course not. Because you’re all about helping others, aren’t you?” Evelyn placed a hand on Vinni’s arm, a silent plea to keep the peace. She turned back to Hunter, her tone firm. “Hunter, while we appreciate your offer, we’ll need time to review the terms of your investment. StarLink is in a delicate position, and we need to ensure that any p

Sophia sat in her lavish house, surrounded by wedding magazines, fabric swatches, and a mountain of invitations. The wedding preparations were in full swing, and she was determined to make it the most extravagant event of the year. Hunter might not be the most affectionate fiancé, but he was wealthy, powerful, and exactly the kind of man she needed to secure her future. She had worked too hard to let anything—or anyone—ruin this for her.As she flipped through a catalog of designer gowns, her phone buzzed on the table. She glanced at the screen, her heart sinking as she saw the name: Jake. Her ex-boyfriend. The man she had tried so hard to leave behind. She hesitated for a moment before picking up the phone, her fingers trembling slightly as she opened the text."Sophia, we need to talk. Meet me at the old warehouse on 5th Street. Bring $50,000 in cash. If you don’t show up, I’ll pay a visit to your new rich boyfriend and tell him all about us. You don’t want that, do you?"Sophia’s s

Evelyn sat in her office, the proposal from Blackwood Enterprises spread out on her desk. Vinni stood beside her, arms crossed, her sharp eyes scanning the document with a critical gaze. The two women had been poring over the details for hours, dissecting every clause and condition. While the investment offer was substantial, there were several terms that didn’t sit well with them—terms that felt overly controlling or invasive, as if Hunter were trying to insert himself into every aspect of StarLink’s operations.“This is ridiculous,” Vinni said, tapping a finger on one of the clauses. “He wants a seat on the board? And veto power over major decisions? Who does he think he is?”Evelyn sighed, leaning back in her chair. “He’s trying to assert control, Vinni. That’s what Hunter does. He doesn’t just invest—he takes over.”Vinni snorted, her tone dripping with sarcasm. “Yeah, because that worked out so well for him last time. Didn’t he learn his lesson after what happened with your fath

Evelyn and Vinni stepped into the sleek, modern lobby of Blackwood Enterprises, the towering glass building a stark reminder of Hunter’s wealth and influence. The sunlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows reflected off the polished marble floors, casting a cold, sterile glow. Evelyn’s heels clicked sharply against the surface, each step echoing her growing unease. Vinni, walking beside her, adjusted the strap of her leather bag, her dark eyes scanning the room with a mix of curiosity and suspicion. The air was thick with the scent of expensive cologne and freshly brewed coffee, but it did little to ease the tension building in Evelyn’s chest.The receptionist, a polished young woman with a practiced smile, greeted them politely. Her perfectly manicured nails tapped lightly on the keyboard as she looked up, her expression as smooth and unreadable as the glass walls surrounding them.“Good morning. How may I assist you?” she asked, her tone professional but devoid of warmt

Evelyn’s breath hitched for a fleeting moment, a primal fear momentarily gripping her, but she quickly masked it with a defiant glare. “Get out of my house, Hunter.”Hunter held her gaze for a long, tense moment, his expression unreadable, a silent battle raging between them.Then, with a sharp, frustrated exhale, he turned abruptly and stormed off, his retreating figure radiating a palpable fury.Evelyn slammed the door shut behind him, the sound echoing in the sudden silence, her hands shaking uncontrollably with a potent mix of anger and a lingering, unwelcome fear.She hated him. She hated that he still thought he had any right to dictate her life, to interfere in her choices. But more than anything, she hated the undeniable truth that, despite everything he had done, he still possessed the power to affect her so deeply, to stir such a volatile storm of emotions within her.Evelyn stood frozen for a moment longer, her heart still pounding erratically in her chest as she stared at
Chasing The Stubborn Ex-Wife In the arms of another man
Hunter spent the remainder of the day confined within the sterile walls of his office, attempting to drown the relentless tide of his thoughts in the demanding intricacies of his work. Spreadsheets blurred into meaningless columns of numbers, and lucrative business deals faded into the periphery of his consciousness, utterly failing to dislodge the persistent image of Evelyn that haunted his every waking moment.Each time he succumbed to the brief respite of closing his eyes, seeking a moment of fleeting peace, he was met with the vivid tableau of Evelyn’s face. The subtle nuances of her expression from the previous night – the lingering hurt in her eyes, the forced composure in her smile – replayed in his mind with agonizing clarity. And then, the memory that truly ignited the simmering rage within him: the way she had turned her back on him, her steps unwavering as she walked directly into the waiting embrace of Edwin.The very thought sent a fresh wave of scalding anger coursing th
Chasing The Stubborn Ex-Wife Conflicted feelings
Next day, Sophia was waiting for Hunter to come down for breakfast. She was standing by the dining table, dressed in a pristine white blouse and a tight pencil skirt, her blonde hair falling in soft waves over her shoulders. To anyone else, she looked calm. Her fingers fidgeted at her sides. She was nervous. And Hunter hated secrets. “What do you want, Sophia?” he asked coldly, not slowing his pace. She forced a smile. “I brought coffee. Thought you might need it after last night.” Hunter scoffed, pushing past her and sitting on the table. “Thank you.” She followed him and took a shaky breath, lowering her gaze as if she were gathering the courage to speak. “Hunter. I need some money.” “Money?” Hunter asked.“It’s not for me,” she whispered. “It’s for Lily.” Hunter’s eyes remained locked onto her, unreadable. “Lily?” She nodded quickly. “Her mother…She's in the hospital. It’s bad, Hunter. The doctors need to perform surgery, but they won’t proceed without payment. Lily has
Chasing The Stubborn Ex-Wife Has she really moved on?
Hunter’s grip on the steering wheel was like iron, his knuckles white against the black leather, as he pulled into his driveway. The moment he killed the engine, the low hum of the car fading into the evening’s quiet, his phone buzzed again, a sharp, insistent vibration against the console.Sophia. Again.He ignored the call, a flicker of irritation sparking in his chest, and stepped out of the car, slamming the door shut with more force than necessary. The evening air was cool, carrying the scent of damp earth and distant honeysuckle, but his blood was boiling, a hot, turbulent current beneath his skin.Evelyn and her stupid lover boy Edwin.The two names were on repeat in his head, a relentless, torturous mantra, feeding the jealousy that gnawed at his insides, a ravenous beast consuming his peace of mind.She was with him right now.Probably laughing. Probably smiling while looking into each other’s eyes.Had she already let him touch her the way she used to let him? The way she us
Chasing The Stubborn Ex-Wife He hasn't moved on
Hunter sat at the head of the long, sleek conference table, staring at the financial reports spread in front of him. The numbers blurred together, his grip tightening around the pen in his hand. The room was filled with the low hum of conversation, the occasional shuffle of papers, and the faint click of a keyboard. But Hunter wasn’t listening. He was supposed to be focused. This meeting was important—his company was finalizing a major acquisition, and every executive in the room was waiting for his decision. The deal was worth billions, and the stakes were high. But his mind was elsewhere. Evelyn. Edwin. The way she had looked at him last night, her eyes blazing with a mix of anger and defiance. Like she had moved on. Like she didn’t care anymore. The memory burned in his chest, a slow, smoldering fire that refused to be extinguished. A sharp voice cut through his thoughts. “Mr. Blackwood?” Hunter’s head snapped up. His CFO, Marcus Reed, was watching him expectant
Chasing The Stubborn Ex-Wife Possesively jealous
Evelyn sat on her couch, staring at the untouched cup of tea in front of her. Edwin had been talking for the past ten minutes—about how toxic Hunter was, about how she needed to cut him off for good—but her mind was elsewhere. She could still hear the sound of Hunter’s car speeding away, could still picture the flicker of something dangerous in his eyes before he left. Jealousy. Possession. Something she shouldn’t have cared about. But did. “Evelyn?” She blinked, snapping back to the present. Edwin was watching her, concern etched across his face. “What?” He sighed. “Were you even listening?” Evelyn rubbed her temples. “I’m tired, Edwin. Can we not do this right now?” His jaw tightened. “Fine. But at least tell me you see it now. He hasn’t changed, Evelyn. He never will.” She swallowed. “It’s not that simple.” Edwin scoffed. “It is exactly that simple. He’s a selfish bastard who only cares about himself. You don’t owe him anything—not your time, not your pi
Chasing The Stubborn Ex-Wife Miss me already, darling?
Breakfast was torture. Not because of Grandma Blackwood—she was as sweet and oblivious as ever—but because of Hunter. Evelyn could feel his eyes on her. Watching. Waiting. As if he expected her to slip, to react, to—what? Fall into his arms like a fool? Not happening. She focused on her food, answering Grandma’s questions with polite enthusiasm. Meanwhile, Hunter played the perfect, doting husband, chiming in at just the right moments. His hand occasionally brushed hers, his arm rested behind her chair—it was all for show, of course. But her body refused to believe that. By the time breakfast was over, Evelyn was exhausted. Hunter helped clear the dishes, chatting easily with Grandma as if nothing was amiss. Meanwhile, Evelyn sat frozen in her seat, replaying that moment at the table. The way he had looked at her. Like he meant it. Like they weren’t pretending. Her chest tightened. She needed air. --- Escape to the Garden Evelyn retreated to the backyard, ta
Chasing The Stubborn Ex-Wife Lets share a bed
Evelyn lay stiffly on the couch, staring at the ceiling. The dim glow of the moon cast soft shadows across the room, but it did nothing to ease the restlessness buzzing under her skin. Her mind was a whirlwind of emotions—anger, frustration, and something else she couldn’t quite name. Something that made her chest ache and her throat tighten.She could still hear Hunter moving around in the bedroom, could picture him sprawled across the bed like he belonged there, like he owned the space—like he owned her. The thought made her jaw clench. *No. He doesn’t get to affect me anymore.* But that was a lie, wasn’t it? Because no matter how much she wanted to deny it, the past still lingered between them, thick and suffocating. It was in the way he looked at her, the way his voice carried that familiar teasing edge, the way his presence seemed to fill every room he entered. It was in the memories she couldn’t escape, no matter how hard she tried.She turned onto her side, pressing the pillow
Chasing The Stubborn Ex-Wife One more night?
Evelyn barely slept.Every time she drifted off, she’d wake to the weight of memories pressing down on her. The familiar scent of Hunter’s cologne mixed with the warm cedarwood of his skin made her chest feel tight.She hated that even now—after everything—his presence still had an effect on her.When the soft glow of dawn filtered through the lace curtains, Evelyn decided she had had enough. Carefully, she slipped out of bed, making sure not to disturb Hunter. He lay on his back, one arm flung across the pillow, his bare chest rising and falling steadily.For a moment, she just looked at him.It wasn’t fair. That he could sleep so soundly while she was drowning in emotions she didn’t want to feel.Shaking off the thought, she grabbed a robe and tiptoed out of the room.The kitchen was warm, filled with the scent of freshly brewed coffee and something sweet. Evelyn found Grandma Blackwood at the stove, humming softly as she flipped pancakes.“Good morning, sweetheart,” she said, smili
