Dear Ex, Marry Me Again! 108
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

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

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! 166_ The End
EmilyIt’s been two weeks since everything unfolded, and today the primary election was being held. Father went to the venue alongside Mother to keep him company. Don’t get me wrong, he didn’t go there to support the Mayor. In fact, he believes there’s no chance the Mayor would be among the winners of the primary election. So there’s no guarantee he will even make it to the general election.I had visited the hospital earlier to check on the well-being of my child before heading back home to watch the election updates unfold on the screen.Father had spoken to Ryan about letting his mother have her freedom now that my father had been caught. Though, they’re still going back and forth because Ryan believes she might try to visit him in prison.To make things final, Father advised Ryan to visit the penitentiary and instruct them to deny her any visitation rights. He left for the prison about an hour ago and has yet to return.Since everything was over, I finally had nothing to worry abo

Screeching the car to a halt, I turned off the engine and stepped out. This was the same place where he had once admitted to orchestrating all the tragedies. Why bring me here again? I scanned my surroundings, my eyes darting to every corner. The area was eerily quiet, too quiet. Not a car, not a soul in sight. He knew what he was doing, using this secluded place to his advantage. The sharp tone of my phone snapped me out of my thoughts. I pulled it out and saw Ethan's name flashing on the screen. Great. What now? Ethan had a knack for calling whenever he felt like it, speaking to me like I was beneath him, and then cutting the call before I could say a word. I answered, bringing the phone to my ear while my eyes continued scanning the vicinity. If he brought me here, he could be watching. I had to stay alert. "What the hell did you get involved in? Is this how you plan to take care of my sister?" Ethan's voice boomed through the phone. My jaw clenched. His tone was grating

Ryan I couldn’t believe he ended the call. He’s still as rude as ever. I knew he didn’t just call me; he’s only working with me because that’s what Emily wants. I stood up abruptly, unable to sit still while she was missing. "Where do you think you are going?" Mother asked, preparing to stand up. She’d been indoors ever since I ordered the guards not to let her leave the house. The maid had called earlier to inform me that she hadn’t been eating. That was the only reason I came to see her. She could starve for all I cared, I wouldn’t mind. Amber is gone because of her carelessness, and honestly, I wouldn’t care if something happened to her too. "I'm heading out. I’ll see you later." "You can’t leave me here! I need to step out of this house; I can’t stay locked in forever." She demanded. "I only came here because you’re my mother and because of what the maid told me. Otherwise, you wouldn’t see me here." I paused before adding coldly, "A new maid will be here later to keep yo

Ethan It’s been more than thirty minutes, and we still can’t find Emily. The certifications have been issued to the graduates, and they have taken their oaths, but there’s still no sign of Emily. She can’t just leave without informing anyone. At this point, I blame her guard for giving her the keys without asking questions. How do we find her? People are already leaving. We want to take a family picture, but we can’t find her. If only I had insisted on coming with her. If I had waited, we would have gotten here together. She wouldn’t have left without me knowing where she was headed. She knows I wouldn’t allow her to leave if she didn’t inform me where she was going. "We can’t keep waiting for her. I believe she will come home." Father said, obviously tired of waiting. He’s been seeing guests come to congratulate him on Lisa’s graduation, and has even gotten tired. He should be at home resting, not here when he still has stitches on his body. "She's old enough to take care of hers

It’s been such a busy morning since I woke up. I’ve been helping the maids prepare food for the guests who showed up even before the day had begun. It’s Lisa’s day, and everyone is happy, coming to congratulate and celebrate with her. Finally, we’ve got a neurologist at home. I’ve been wondering how she intends to go after her business.She’ll be resuming work at the hospital a few days later before flying out to her desired place, which Father is still working on. I’m going to miss her; she’s been the most supportive sister and friend I’ve had since I lost my other friends.Everything has happened so fast, in the blink of an eye. I can’t believe I’ve been married before, and now I’m pregnant. I should inform Ryan about it instead of keeping it from him."Hey, what are you thinking?" I looked at the figure. It was Lisa, all dressed up, looking stunning. She was wearing a lace-trim off-shoulder slim dress, with elegant long sleeves and a back cut into a heart shape. Her hair was styled

It was a hectic evening with Lisa. We finally managed to get her something to wear for her graduation. I’m not the one graduating, but I’m so happy she’s signing out of school.When we arrived home, Biggy helped carry the clothes from the car boot while we made our way into the living room.Father hadn’t come with us because he said the Mayor was coming over to see him. I guess he finally agreed to meet him, especially since the scandal he’s caught up in has been spread by bloggers.I’m certain that Ethan had something to do with it, but he feigned ignorance when Father asked him. Speaking of Ethan, I haven’t seen him since he left the office with Freya, who has refused to return despite his requests.We marched into the living room and found Father seated with the Mayor. Their expressions didn’t seem lighthearted.I quietly marched past them and ascended the stairs."Good day, Mayor." Lisa greeted, clearly seated close to Father, as I heard her plop onto the couch."Hello, Lisa! Cong

EmilyIt has been more than ten days since we uncovered the truth that my birth father was the mastermind behind all the chaos that has unfolded. Since Ryan lost track of him that night, there have been no further leads to locate him. My adopted father was livid when he found out, ready to take matters into his hands, but his friend Liam managed to calm him down.There’s a reason I deeply respect Liam. He has a knack for stepping in at the right moment, offering advice that’s both timely and wise. He convinced my father to let Ryan and Ethan handle the situation, especially Ryan, who has been enduring threats and even narrowly escaped death, all because of me.In four years of marriage, I had no idea Ryan was hiding such a burden from me. None of this made sense at first, but after my birth father admitted to all his crimes, I couldn’t deny the truth. He never truly liked me, not even as a child. If not for my mother standing up for me, I might have ended up in an orphanage, far remov

It took me a few minutes to bring Emily back to her senses. She was losing it and needed someone to ground her. We couldn’t fight her father here, he came prepared, determined to take her away with him. "Don’t say a word." I warned her, turning to face the man standing in front of us. He doesn’t deserve to be anyone’s father. How could Jasper not find anything substantial on him when I asked him to investigate? "I’m disappointed in you." I began, my voice steady and sharp, "not just as Emily’s father but as a so-called boss who can’t even protect his men from danger." He furrowed his brows, clearly confused, as if he didn’t understand what I had just said. "You must remember when I told you that only a fool hides while his world crumbles around him. Your men were kidnapped, yet all you could think to do was chase someone you’ll never catch." "Is this your attempt to provoke me?" He retorted, his tone calm but laced with disdain. "You’ve failed. Your words mean nothing to me." "Ca

I made sure all the plans were in place before stepping out, fully prepared. He’s coming to get Emily, while the twins and their boss are coming for their friends body, and that of his brother. I will finally uncover who wanted Emily dead and went so far as to plant a bomb in her car. The anonymous figure who’s been tormenting me for years, forcing me to divorce her, needs to be unmasked. I need answers. Why has he been doing all this? Once I was ready, I got into the car, buckled my seatbelt, and drove off. We’re out to catch two people today. "Hey, is everything set? Any movement yet?" I asked, gripping the steering wheel tightly as I exited the parking lot. My nerves were shot, not because of the plan itself, but because Ethan kept giving us problems. I could only hope he wouldn’t jeopardize this operation. "Nothing yet, but that doesn’t mean no one will show up. You’ve seen the twin brother. He’s not just starving, he’s like that because he’s been separated from his brother." K
