Dear Ex-husband, I Have Returned! Chapter 10_ Apologize!
~Avery~My head was in chaos but I tried my very best to keep a neat smile on my face. Never in my wildest dream did I plan to meet Ella in my daughter's school. I guess fate has its way of bringing people together.It turned out that she was the mother of the boy Allison had bullied the previous day. Now that I was here, I felt a little bit guilty about scolding Allison. This mother and son don't deserve any sympathy at all.My grip on her hand further tightened. This was the same hand she had tried to use on my child and I wasn't going to spare her for that mistake. I applied a much stronger force on her wrist twisting it until I heard a small snap.“Argh!!” “Apologize!” I ordered still holding firm to her wrist. Beads of sweat settled on her forehead, her face twisted in pain. She was still so arrogant to apologize for her wrong doings. Good! I was more arrogant than she was. Until she apologizes to me, I'd release her from the torture. “Sorry!” Ella screamed in agony before pul

~Avery~Deep black eyes. Ink black hair and a well chiselled face. These features, I was once well familiar with them. It was the face I woke up next to gazing upon every morning. But all that was once upon a time. All that was left were just the bitter memories. I stood there trying to catch my breath.“Avery” His deep voice called out sending shivers down my spine. Once I had regained my senses, I placed both hands against his chest and pushed him with all my strength, the farthest he could go away from me was barely two steps backwards.He just scared the crap out of me. But most importantly, what the fuck was he doing at my company? How dare he show his face to me again? “What the hell do you want?!” I demanded sending him cold stares. Suddenly realizing how loud I had been a while ago, I looked around hoping no one was around.“Avery I need to speak with you..Let's go somewhere private to-A snort left my lips before he could complete his words. “Private? Mr Brandon..aren't yo

~Avery~ Ella's face turned a light shade of red under my scrutinizing gaze. What do they really think of me? Of course my words about her family was very correct infact. They all had a criminal record well except for her or maybe she hadn't been caught in the act yet.Lucy's gaze was fierce, her eyes almost drilled a hole on my face. I didn't have the time to exchange words with them now. Or more like, I didn't want to exchange words with Lucy. She had been a good mother-in-law when I was still married to Scott. Unfortunately, I had no idea why she had changed so much.“Excuse me?! Do you have any idea of what you just said? You dared to insult my family?” I rolled my eyes at her pointless question. Yes! I insulted her family because she did the same to mine. “Ella.. I've never interfered in your affairs with Scott..but you have a lot of problems with me.. don't you ever get tired? I know I'm awesome and an amazing fellow..but you just have to lessen your excitement whenever you se
Last Updated : 2024-12-04Dear Ex-husband, I Have Returned! Chapter 13_ Plans 1
~Ella~ The breakfast table was empty when I got down a few minutes ago. This was obviously because Scott was still at the hospital and Ken left for school earlier. I was still on my casual home wear. A pair of ash jogger pants and a black tank top. I had just finished my yoga practice for the day. This morning couldn't be any more blissful than it already was now. I settled on one of the white couch in the broad living room with a coffee mug on my left hand, it's been a while since I had some time alone to myself and I wasn't about to trade it for anything. I mentally noted to visit Scott at the hospital in the next one hour. Raising the mug to my lips, the warm liquid seeped slowly into my mouth. My throat bobbled as I swallowed relishing the after taste with a smack of my lips. “Hmm..perfect” Few minutes into this perfect pin drop silence that enveloped the whole building, I heard the sound of a car pulling in disrupting the peace I was slowly getting used to. My brows fu

~Ella~The vague whispers around me made me open my eyes slowly, adjusting to the light. I felt Something trickling slowly down my face in small balls. I could make out that it was a liquid substance. I saw Scott's face relax a little, and a few of the cops appeared gigantic before me. I immediately noticed that I was partly on the floor. My upper half rested on Scott's opened arms.What happened? I touched my head trying to figure out what had happened to me. Why was I on the floor? And why were there police officers around?“Ella..are you okay? You passed out” My gaze fell on the lady across the room and my eyes rounded in realization. I suddenly recalled the scene that transpired before I lost consciousness. And for once, I wasn't interested in whatever Scott had to say. My eyes carefully roamed the interrogation room until it settled on the lady who exposed me to everyone.Why wasn't Scott scolding me? He should be mad at me and not the other way around. My heart thumped wildly

~Avery~ My eyes dimmed in frustration. What a perfect timing for my sisters to arrive at my house. All they've been doing in the last five minutes was to wriggle their brows and tease me at every chance they could get. How can I possibly explain it to them that I wasn't in my right state of mind then? “There's nothing going on between us..we are just friends” Stella jokingly mimicked my words. I hate to admit it but she sounded so much like me. That was one of her very great talent and Tina, the youngest one joined in Stella's teasing too. “Will you both stop making me uncomfortable? And why are you here in the first place?” My two hands rested on my hips while my brows raised waiting for a reply to the question I threw at them. My cheeks were burning in embarrassment and they making me feel even worse. “What do you mean big sis? We are siblings after all. So what is wrong if we stop by to say hello to you? It wasn't our fault that we caught you- My left palm pressed ag
Last Updated : 2024-12-06Dear Ex-husband, I Have Returned! Chapter 16_ Enemy
~Avery~ If anyone had told me earlier today that I'd be meeting with my ex-husband at a restaurant, I'd have tried as much as possible to avoid this from happening. I stared down at his hand holding me back from leaving, he noticed my lingering gaze on his hold and quickly released his grip on me. “What do you really want from me Scott? Don't you have better things to do other than to follow me around like a stray dog?!” My voice was unexpectedly loud and harsh garnering attention from the others in the restaurant. “I swear this was just a coincidence Avery..I just need five minutes of your time and after that, you can decide if you really want me to stop showing up in front of you” Deal! I screamed in my head. This was the perfect chance to get rid of him, I raised my two hands a little nodding my head with a sarcastic on my lips. “Good! Let's get this over with..” Few minutes later… “Ma'am what would you like to have?” I shook my head with a polite smile at the waitress
Last Updated : 2024-12-08Dear Ex-husband, I Have Returned! Chapter 17_ Let's Get Engaged
~Avery~After I got back from the restaurant, I didn't spill anything to Stephen even after he asked me countless times about it over dinner. I couldn't have told him if I really wanted to since Allison was present with us too.My daughter was a smarty pants and she would likely put a thing or two together to figure out what she really wanted to know. I just didn't want Allison to figure out that Stephen wasn't her father. if she finds out, she'd try to do something so drastic just to find out who her real dad was.Stephen has always been a father figure to Allison, sometimes I really envied their bond and also wish that this perfect family we portray could last well enough till Allison is able to understand what was really going on around her. But I doubt that might be the case since Scott is always on my tail trying to brainwash me with some cooked up stories of his. When I noticed that Allison was already fast asleep, I slowly detached from her and drew the pink Barbie duvet ove

Dear Ex-husband, I Have Returned! Chapter 35_ Dark Clouds 2
Scott~ Hating Stephen was one thing but accepting to meet up with him was another thing entirely, we never liked each other and I was very certain that it would remain that way for as long as possible. It was best if we talked things out right now and also set some boundaries.I couldn’t get over the fact that Avery had agreed to marry the joker himself. I looked around the open air cafe in search of him. I saw him sitting a few distance away from the few people around. He was deeply engrossed in his phone or he was just trying to make me feel small by pretending to not see me.Ridiculous!I took my time to walk up to the table he reserved. I suddenly had the urge to walk up to that table and flip it over. No one gets to steal my woman away from me.I pulled out one of the chairs, dragging it on the ground purposely to make my presence known even though he knew that I was around.Unbuttoning my suit, I took a seat and picked up one of the menus lying on the table. I brought it over
Dear Ex-husband, I Have Returned! Chapter 34_ Dark Clouds 1
~Avery~“Are you sure you want this big sis?” I stopped on my tracks and turned to Tina who has been trying to talk me out of my decision to marry Stephen this weekend.She wasn't the only one who wasn't satisfied by my decision. Stella was also against this marriage and so was a part in my heart.But I can't help it. Scott's persistence was already getting out of hands and this was the only solution I could think of.“What do you mean by that? I'm old enough to make decisions right? Look Tina. You're too young to understand what is really going on. You should be happy for me Sis-“No!” Tina said in a firm tone. Her thin brows furrowed deeply “I'm not going to be present at your wedding. Stephen is a good guy but Scott is great and the best for you. Have you even allowed him explain himself -I raised a finger to stop her from speaking. I could feel my face tighten up as I took a step forward.“Have you been meeting up with Scott behind my back?” “You’re making a mistake Avery!”.T
Dear Ex-husband, I Have Returned! Chapter 33_ Mafia Lines 2
~Scott~For more than five years I've been known as the infidel husband who couldn't keep his lower part in check. Everyone saw me as the villain most especially Avery who still thought that I really cheated on her with Ella.But the truth was that Ella was my older brother's widow and also my ex-girlfriend. We dated for two years during highschool before she broke up with me. A week after our split up, she hooked up with greg.My brother Gregory was known for his careless lifestyle and unfortunately for him, he was murdered. Perhaps he knew something or saw something that he shouldn't have seen or heard. I've tried my very best to know who the killer was but it led to a dead end. If the killer was still alive, Ella and her baby would never be safe. Whoever killed Gregory was coming for Ella and her unborn baby as per her words and I couldn't sit back and watch my sister-in-law and her baby die just like my brother. And till date, I have never witnessed an attack on either Ella or
Dear Ex-husband, I Have Returned! Chapter 32_ Mafia lines 1
~Ella~I couldn't remember how long I've been staring at the clock since Scott suddenly left home this morning. My mind has been racing trying to guess what the matter might be.His phone was out of reach too. I tossed my phone back to the bed in frustration. The least he could have done was to inform me about his whereabouts.“He has been ignoring me ever since that Avery returned back to the country!” Our marriage wasn't an ideal one but the whole world saw it as one. And I'm not going to sit down and watch Avery ruin the relationship that I've been trying to build for the last five years.I was still pondering on my wandering thoughts when the door flew open startling me out of my skin. I turned on my heels in surprise ready to vent on whoever that it was. But I was damn speechless to see Scott standing before the corridor with a dark gaze.“Scott…”It was almost impossible for Scott to show up at my room despite the fact that we've been living together for some years now. That w
Dear Ex-husband, I Have Returned! Chapter 31_ Broken
~Avery~My head fell on the steering wheel processing everything that happened in that basement minutes ago. Scott knows about Allison and I've got this strange feeling that he'll be more persistent than he was before.So this was the truth Scott had kept away from me all these years. I was finally able to connect the few dots together. I broke down into tears. I allowed the salty water flow down freely. Everything I had always pictured about Scott was wrong. He was still the same person I loved in the past.“You could have said something to me” I choked out amidst tears.I lost count of how long I've been in that position bawling my lungs and eyes out until a knock fell on the windshield. Jerking up, I wiped my tears away with the back of my palm before I raised my head up. The figure was a bit blurry but I was able to make out Stephen's figure.It was already dark outside, Stephen's worried face only made me anxious and uncertain about the future. Wiping every single tear stain so
Dear Ex-husband, I Have Returned! Chapter 30_ It's Too Late...
~Avery~ My brain shut down completely as his lips lingered on mine. He must have noticed my frozen state which made him pull away. I was too shocked to speak or blink. A part of me wanted this to last longer. That selfish part in me craved his touch desperately. “I'm not sorry about that. You've always been mine from the beginning” I sucked in a deep breath. My cheeks burned in embarrassment as his eyes fell back on mine. This was wrong, I couldn't afford to make the same mistake again by trusting Scott. The world already knew me as Stephen's soon to be bride. I couldn't put his reputation on the line like that, Stephen was one of the closest people to me. Without him, I wouldn't have made it this far. “I've already started a life with Stephen and I'll only advice you to focus on your life with Ella and your son because few weeks from now, Stephen and I will be getting married” I saw his expression changed from a pitiful gaze to a very annoyed look. He stood up from the chair
Dear Ex-husband, I Have Returned! Chapter 29_ Misunderstanding
~Avery~Ah! My head hurt so much. I lazily scanned my surroundings which appeared to be a basement to a building. I tried to move but suddenly realized that I was strapped to a chair. I couldn't scream either because a tape was on my lips.Realizing that I've just been kidnapped, panic struck within me. Different thoughts ran through my mind on who could be responsible and why? But it all draws down to one answer.I tried moving my wrists against each other as they were tied behind the chair I occupied. This position wasn't favorable to my wrist or feet strapped to the chair.I rocked back and forth on the wooden chair to make some screech on the ground, that way it would attract whoever kidnapped me.Not too long, I heard a firm and slow footstep approaching me. The nearer the sounds drew closer to me the more I was scared for my life. What if they kill me? There wasn't any sane thoughts left in my head anymore.A screeching sound against the ground accompanied the footstep approach
Dear Ex-husband, I Have Returned! Chapter 28_ Kidnapped
~Avery~All throughout the night I kept turning and tossing on my bed. My mind drifting back to the encounter with Scott. No matter how hard I tried I couldn't shake off this unsettling feeling creeping in at the back of my mind.What does he really want? Was he trying to tell me something? But what more could he say to me other than what I had witnessed myself? There was no point giving him a chance to speak when all he does is to tell lies.“Get out of my thought Scott” ***The next morning, I woke up to the sound of little whispers next to me. My eyelids fluttered open. The view that came before my face was blurry but I could make out two figures peering at me intently with little giggles at intervals.“She’s waking up!” My eyes cleared up in an instant. I sat up with a deep crease on my forehead. Before me stood Allison and Stephen. Only the heavens knew how long they have been standing there and watching me sleep. I tucked my face down into my bent elbow to wipe off any trace o
Dear Ex-husband, I Have Returned! Chapter 27_ Ten feet apart...2
~Ella~My heart almost leaped out of my chest at the sudden crash next to me. I shuddered when Scott grabbed me by the shoulder. He sent cold glares to my face. “For the last time Ella! How did that little girl end up here?!” His voice was hoarse and chilly. With every word he spat out, I could see the anger he was trying to push down.He had been like this since the previous day trying to get an answer from me but I wasn't going to give myself away. That was just like stabbing yourself in the foot.Avery ought to have involved the Cops in this matter by now. That was the reason I brought her daughter back home. If she files a complaint against him, his image would be ruined and tarnished in the face of the public. No one can ever recover completely from that. Not even Scott.He'd eventually learn to hate Avery and her daughter.“How would I know that? I only learnt about her daughter yesterday after she came here. I'm also as confused as you are Scott. Why don't you believe my word
