Dear Ex, Marry Me Again! 106
Ryan As I walked into the house, I didn’t stop until I was standing in front of Amber’s door. I knocked vigorously, and without waiting for her response, I pushed the door open. She was seated in front of the mirror, applying makeup—obviously getting ready for the club. I had gotten information that someone now comes to pick her up from home. Standing just inches away from her, I stared at her from head to toe. If I decided to hit her, she would probably end up in the hospital. This was how she chose to repay me, after all I had done, sending her to school, offering her a job, even asking her to work for the family company. She had refused to do any of it. No matter how much I scold her, she never listens. "Were you at the hospital today?" I asked. She stood up, and I noticed she was shivering, her eyes darting toward the door. "Answer the question. What were you doing at the hospital, Amber?" "I was sick. I went there with Mother." She replied hesitantly. "Do you want to get yo

"What do you mean by that? Do you even know what you are talking about?" I asked, glaring in his direction. How can he bring up such a conversation when he knows my relationship with Zara? What could even be prompting such thoughts?Since the last time I went to her school to warn her, she hasn’t left school to come see me, and she doesn’t even pick up my calls anymore."You need to calm down. I have a reason for asking; I’m not just making things up." Alex defended.I finished adjusting my blazer, now turning to face him fully. "What do you mean? How can I have an affair with my cousin? Doesn’t that sound ridiculous to you?""What if she's having feelings for you? What if she's slept with you, but.....""Alex." I roared. It was beginning to irk me, just the thought of it is irritating.I want to know where all of this is coming from, because why would he think I'm having an affair with my sister."Can you please stop? You know my condition. I can’t get a woman pregnant; I’m still on

I could no longer concentrate at the dining table. It was beginning to suffocate me, the way he was acting all romantic with her. This used to piss me off, but I wouldn't allow him to get into my head and make me act rashly. There were people I respected seated here. It was better to step outside for some fresh air to clear my head. I picked up a glass of juice and excused myself from the room. "Please excuse me." I said, standing up, just as Liam stopped me. "Ryan, you barely touched your food." He said, concern evident on his face. I smiled. "I'm fine. I had lunch late in the evening, so I think that's why I can't eat much." I lied, desperate to escape the pain I had been enduring since I sat down. I had never felt the pain of our divorce as strongly as I did today. Seeing her so beautifully dressed and smiling was killing me. And now, he was worsening it. "Alright. Go ahead." He responded. I nodded before turning on my heels. I took the stairs and strode to the last balcony, s

EmilyI pulled my hands out of Anderson's grip. He had no right to hit Ryan, even though she had saved me. I’m not saying Ryan should have kissed me without my permission, or even tried to, but that didn’t justify Anderson hitting him. If I hadn’t suspected him of the call he received, I wouldn’t have followed him down the stairs, and Ryan wouldn’t have kissed me.I stopped, pulling my hands away again, earning a concerned stare from Anderson. He tried to grab my hands once more, but I stopped him."Don't do that." I said, raising my hands to keep him at a distance."Is everything okay?" he asked, his brows furrowing. "I'm sorry he kissed you, and I wasn’t there on time to stop him.""I'm furious he kissed me. I mean, he shouldn’t have. But that doesn’t mean you should hit him, Anderson. What if you both had gotten into a fight?"He paused, staring at me in disbelief. Perhaps he hadn’t expected me to side with Ryan. He could think whatever he wanted, but what he did back there was wro

"Thank you for coming to represent your father." Liam said curtly. "Please tell him he has nothing to worry about, everything is going as planned." I nodded in response. I don’t know what their plan is, but I’ll be sure to pass on the message. "I’ll be on my way. It’s getting late. Thank you for the dinner." I replied, tightening my grip on my bag. "Alright! Make sure you don’t overthink. Let your heart lead you." He said, stroking my hair. I smiled at him before turning on my heels. I’m not letting anything bother me, not even the nonsense Ryan said earlier. My focus is on dealing with those scumbags who’ve been tormenting my family and causing me nothing but pain. Everyone will bow before me, that, I promise. I reached the car and tossed the keys to Jasper, who caught them hurriedly. He pressed the key button, unlocking the car for me before settling into the driver’s seat. Once he fastened his seatbelt, he drove onto the highway. A slow song played softly in the background,

I outstretched my hand, pointing toward the door where the voice had come from. That was Ethan's voice. I hadn’t realized he was back after leaving earlier this morning. Even when I came home to prepare for dinner, it had just been Lisa."It’s him. He’s been in his room for a couple of hours now." Lisa said, noticing how flabbergasted I was. No one had told me he was back, not even a call.I hurried out of the room and scurried toward Lisa’s room. There he was, stepping out of the doorway."Hey, you are back." He said, walking toward me. I punched him on the shoulder, earning a gasp from him."Why did you make everyone worry?" I demanded, landing another punch, which elicited another gasp."Sweet, are you trying to break his arm?" Lisa teased, laughing from behind me. "I tried calling you, but he said I should let you be." She confessed.Just as I was about to punch him again, Ethan caught my hand and pulled me into a hug."There’s some good news." He whispered.I quickly pulled back

Earlier this morning, Father left home with the picture Lincoln had brought as proof, urging everyone to be at the hospital before he returned. The only exception was Lisa, who had to go to school to finish her project. He didn’t tell anyone where his destination and simply drove off. I couldn’t know his destination since we hadn’t exchanged greetings. Something tells me he’s headed to the Mayor's mansion, which I hope turns out to be true. They pretend to like him, let's see how he defends his friend. The text message from yesterday has been lingering in my mind, and I’m not sure if I should tell Mother about it. I don’t want her to become restless over it. For Father to send me a text, he must either be back in the country or something else is at play. Either way, he will soon show up at the house. He has no shame, not even a shred of good reasoning. If I keep it from her, and she finds out, I don't know how she’ll react. It’s barely been twenty-four hours, so it’s better I let he

Zara I’m not backing out, not now, not anytime soon. This is a game I started, and I must see it through, achieving everything I have ever dreamed of. Her attempts to make me quit won’t work, and I refuse to stand by and let her ruin everything I’ve worked so hard for. She may have given me the job, and I took it, but giving up now, when there’s no clear way out, is not an option. I’ve been with him for four years. I lost my brother in the process, and now she expects me to throw it all away and pretend none of it ever happened? If this has anything to do with that, I won’t hesitate to tell Ryan that his mother hired me to have a child for him. In the future, she plans to take control of everything once the child comes of age to inherit the company. I know I’ll be ruining everything on my side, but I don’t care, I won’t go down alone. She will face her downfall too, and I’m certain he won’t forgive her, even if she is his mother. I was standing by the pedestrian sidewalk when a ca

EthanFather is taking longer than expected to arrive. I had spoken to him a few minutes ago, he told me he was already on his way to the address I shared with him, but there’s still no sight of him. I should reach out to Emily—maybe he’s still at home, forgot something, and had to go back.I turned to the guys, extending my hand to get the phone. Once I collected it, I scrolled through and dialed her number. I’m supposed to fly out of the country soon; the pile of work I have is alarming, and I need to get it done.Laughter greeted me when she picked up, followed by her voice. “Hey, where have you been?”“Lisa didn’t tell you? We caught the twins’ friend. I’m at the crib with him, but he’s refused to say a word.”I heard her sigh. I know she's probably gritted her teeth even though I can't see her. “You should beat him until he bleeds; that way, he’ll cooperate. Share your location with me. I’ll be there.” She ended the call before I could respond.Staring at the phone, I heard foots

RyanIt was late in the evening, and I had just finished giving a speech at a conference I was invited to. Though it was impromptu, I had to attend, even though I still wasn't feeling like myself after what happened yesterday. I had to leave immediately since I had a meeting with Mr. Fernandez. He had literally reached out to me earlier this morning to meet him at a popular restaurant in town.Everything that happened yesterday made me feel less of a man. I didn’t know what to think after finding myself at Alex’s apartment. He’s been insisting Zara has something to do with this.I don’t even know how to convince him otherwise, how to tell him she’s innocent and wouldn’t spike my drink. When I went home this morning, I found her crying because I hadn’t returned her calls. She thought something had happened to me, and Jasper didn’t pick up her calls either.This isn’t the first time I have experienced this. It always starts with a sharp headache, and suddenly, I become sleepy. I have al

Lisa grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the room. We didn’t stop until we reached the parking lot, where she leaned against her car. I watched as she pulled out her phone, unlocked it, and held it up to my face.I frowned, unsure of her intention, until I looked closer. The image on the screen caught my attention immediately, it was Samantha. She appeared to be arguing with, or even striking, the woman next to her."That’s Ryan’s mother, but… what is this? And the woman with her, who is she?" I asked, my confusion deepening.Lisa raised her brows, silently urging me to figure it out on my own. But she remained quiet.Taking the phone from her hand, I zoomed in on the video. As soon as I recognized the other figure, my heart sank. My hands flew to my mouth in disbelief as I stared at Lisa."What are they doing together?" I muttered, more to myself. The scene was unsettling, the two of them on what seemed to be a quiet, secluded road. "Why would they meet when they don’t even get alon

I arrived at the hospital and found my mother in Biggy’s room. The others were probably out, but I didn’t bother asking her. She had been the one staying with him since he was admitted and hadn’t gone home. I marched toward her and pulled her into a hug. “How was your outing? I hope you got the information you needed?” She asked as I settled next to her. I exhaled sharply, taking her hands in mine. “I can’t wait for this to be over. I want peace, but it seems we’re not getting it anytime soon.” She sighed, but I couldn’t hold back what was weighing on my mind. It felt like I should just step down as president and go somewhere else. I longed for love and harmony with someone who matched my energy. Dealing with all this chaos was frustrating and exhausting, especially when there was no progress. “I hope you know your father is trying. He’s doing everything he can as a father to make sure you’re safe.” I nodded, aware that he had done far more for me than my biological father ever w

Emily I couldn't shake the suspicion that Zara might have something to do with this, even though Alex insisted Ryan has been defending her. How could someone suddenly feel intoxicated and fall into such a deep sleep at the same time? That doesn’t just happen unless something was spiked in their drink or food. As much as I don’t like Zara, it wouldn’t be fair to accuse her without proof. Still, with what Jasper said, it’s hard not to consider her a suspect. What irritated me the most was Alex calling me to come help. What was I supposed to do? Sleep with him just because he needed saving? It was ridiculous. The audacity he had to use Grace as an excuse to lure me there was infuriating. I sighed, running my hands through my hair, feeling more confused than ever. Nothing about this situation made sense. Standing up, I made my way to the door and pushed it open. As I stepped out, I caught sight of Alex striding toward his office. I’d been waiting for him to finish with a patient and c

I didn’t realize we had arrived at Alex’s mansion until I felt someone carrying me on their back. Jasper was panting heavily as he rushed me into the house. My eyes were half-closed, and I barely registered as we passed through the living room. Moments later, he gently laid me down on a bed. "What happened to him?" Alex’s voice sounded distant, almost muffled. I couldn’t make out Jasper’s response. "Just give me something to take away this sensation, please. I need to get somewhere." I pleaded, my voice weak. I could hear them making phone calls, their voices blending into the background as my eyelids grew heavier. Despite my best efforts, I couldn’t focus on their words. There were people moving around the room, their footsteps soft yet persistent, but I was unable to summon the strength to open my eyes. I didn’t want to drift off to sleep—Alex had to do something quickly so I could get to the address. This has to end. Even if it doesn’t, at least I’ll uncover who’s after me, eve

I arrived home only to be greeted by something I’d never expected to witness while living with her. What the hell has gotten into her? She was wearing a skimpy dress—something I’d never seen her do before. Is this how she’s been dressing at school?My mind raced with questions. What if someone comes to see me and finds her like this? The guards, or anyone else, could walk in. She just got back today, and if I don’t address this now, it might become a habit.Summoning courage, I knocked on the kitchen door to get her attention."Brother Ryan, welcome back." She said, turning around with a bright smile."Thank you. But why are you dressed like this? Anyone could walk in here, even the guards outside." I said, keeping my tone firm.She looked down at her outfit and then back up at me, seemingly unbothered. "There's nothing wrong with what I'm wearing." She replied, even spinning around as if to prove her point.If she doesn’t see anything wrong, there’s no point in pushing further. "Just

Ryan Just as I stepped out of the car, another car drove into the parking lot. Without waiting to see who was inside, I marched forward. Whoever it was, they knew their way to the entrance. I didn't have any appointments today, so there was no way they were coming to see me. I marched into the reception, ascended the stairs, and strode to my office. When I reached the elevator, I pressed the button for my floor, arms crossed as I waited for the elevator to ding. I felt a bit relieved that things at the new refinery were moving along fine, and there hadn't been any complaints so far from the manager in charge. I must commend him; he's doing an outstanding job. Business was going well, with nothing to worry about—except my personal affairs. My love life was a mess, all because of an anonymous figure who refused to let me act freely. I had delayed long enough. Taking the step to ask her to marry me was a relief, but I needed to keep putting pressure on her so she knows I am serious
Dear Ex, Marry Me Again! 114
I sat in a corner of the restaurant, waiting for Adams to show up. Samantha thinks I'm going down without a fight. She’s wrong. I'm going to fight her until my last breath. I lost my brother, but she never cared. If not for Ryan, I wouldn't have been able to give him a proper burial. Ryan has done so much for me, even though we're not related. But who cares? I'm being paid to do this, and I will do it. Adams reached out to me a few months ago with a deal I turned down, but now, I need him. I have to use him to get what I want. Instead of being tossed aside after these four years, I would rather betray Ryan and stab him in the back. He's been there for me, even when his mother wasn't, and I’m grateful for that. But I won't leave without something to my name. I need to figure out a way. It's been more than five minutes since I spoke to Adams on the phone. I wonder if he's coming. The first time he asked me to work with him, he showed up before I even got there. Today, it's his turn, a
