Dear ex-husband, you will regret this Chapter 23. NO ONE IS TAKING MY MAN.
Bella's POV “Mr. Williams, are you sure this marriage is still going to work?” My mom asked Ethan's dad, hoping for some assurance from him.“Don't worry, I know my son, Ethan. He is not that kind of person. After tonight, he should come to his senses as our plot should be in progress as we speak now.”I just kept grinning from ear to ear, aware of the plan to arrange for someone to rape Jasmine while Ethan caught them in the act.I wouldn't know exactly how it's going to work, but Mr. Williams assured us he oversaw the entire setup, from the Jasmine part to that of Ethan.“Williams, that's smart of you.” My mom commended.“So, cheers to a plot in progress.” We all raised our respective glasses of wine for the ‘cheers.’“You have planned well.Unfortunately, I will have to disappoint you by letting you know that your plans have failed and are exposed.” Ethan's voice unexpectedly cut through the air, and then he sat down on one of the couches in the sitting room where we were.Simul

Jasmine’s POV The archer's group manager sneaked into a confidential space I had invited him to.I had written to him to see him privately, and the content of the writing wasn't one he could neglect and act like it's nothing. He must have been curious to know more. I knew that to achieve my plans of getting him to come around, I must press hard to be able to get him into my space.“Jasmine, what do you want?” He questioned immediately he had a sit just opposite where I sat, with his eyes adjusting tightly and a little fire in his eyes. I understand he never believed I could know the things I said to him in the letter comment. But trust me, I always have my way since I turned into a monster after I was given a second chance to live.I wish he could calm down a bit; besides, I don't bite.“Mr. Ken, you have been working in the Archers group for many years, right? And so, I know you and Mr. Williams have a good relationship.”“In case you must know, it's been 20 years. And the chairma
Last Updated : 2024-08-21Dear ex-husband, you will regret this Chapter 25. I AM YET TO START WITH YOU.
Jasmine’s POV After today's work, Ethan had asked me to accompany him somewhere without letting me know the actual place we were going.Without asking much questions, we got into his car and on our way, I decided to ask, “Ethan, where exactly did you say we were going?”“My family house.” I could relate to what that means, which is to see his dad.I could see the way he looked at me to get what my reaction would be, and as one who thinks so fast I understood that immediately.Anyway, my brows ruffled a little bit at first.Judging from the looks on my face, he knew I wasn't comfortable with it all, but then it was late to say no to him.But out of nowhere, I smiled at him. That was a bit contracting, going by the looks I had on just a few seconds ago.As soon as we got to his family house, we met his dad in the sitting room, relaxing with a book he was reading and a glass of wine to chill.He must be sure that I am the one - Jasmine, whose name must have been mentioned several time
Last Updated : 2024-08-23Dear ex-husband, you will regret this Chapter 26. WEIRD THOUGHTS.
Ethan's POV We were on our way out of my father's house to get to the garage, where I had packed my car so Jasmine and I could leave.I had a quick reflection on what happened.With a hard face, I had both hands placed in my pockets, respectively, which was evident of how furious I was at what had happened in there.“Ethan,” Jasmine beckoned, and I stopped, then turned to face her. “I am so sorry that because of me, you and your dad have a fight.” She pleaded with all sincerity in her eyes.Occasionally I don't seem to understand this lady, Jasmine. Just when we were at the middle of something serious in there, at a stage, she found it all funny, but now she is acting all sorry.But then, on a second thought, “It's fine, Jasmine. It's just a verbal fight. Aside from that, it's not your fault. I should rather be the one apologizing to you, not the other way around. So, please forgive me.”The least I could do was apologize instead, because I knew somehow I made her follow me to see m
Last Updated : 2024-08-24Dear ex-husband, you will regret this Chapter 27. IN A STATE OF DILEMMA.
Jasmine’s POV “Ethan and his dad had completely fallen out. Same with Bella and her mom, who I doubt are on good terms. “Cheers to my temporary victory.”I said that and clicked the glass with Luciano.We had arranged to meet at one of the restaurants on the outskirts of the town. It's a nice spot, though, but people scarcely visited since it was not situated inside town.This was to avoid making Ethan aware of my visit to Luciano, as he had warned me to stay away from my ‘supposed brother.’“Jasmine, I need to let you know; next time, please don't take such a risk.” Luciano held both of my hands, which I had placed on the table after I dropped my glass, like he was about to lose me. “What if something happened to you?” he questioned.Referring to the incident I had briefed him on, as soon as we met—about the man Mr. Williams used to set me up.I thought we were done with that part of the gist, but I was surprised he alluded to it again.“Don't worry, I already almost died once, and
Last Updated : 2024-08-25Dear ex-husband, you will regret this Chapter 28. THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE.
Jasmine’s POV As soon as Ethan made the first step as he turned to leave, I moved to his side quickly and grabbed his hand.With a sorry face, “Ethan, you have misunderstood us. There is really nothing between myself and Luciano. He is only my brother, and that's all.”He turned to face me and said, “Did you listen to the way you call his name, ‘Luciano’ so intimately?” He huffed, “I see.”Before I could defend what he said.Surprisingly, Bella showed up out of the blues.My mouth formed an ‘O.’.That was the best way to express my shock the moment I noticed her.“Hmmm!” She cleared her throat, then crossed her arms defensively.“Jasmine I didn't expect you to be so shameless. Flirting with another man with one hand and clinging to Ethan in the other.”I knew it; she must be the one who had pre-informed Ethan. There was no better explanation for how Ethan showed up, out of nowhere and a few minutes later she followed in suit.I had felt some sense of camera flash while I was discussi
Last Updated : 2024-08-27Dear ex-husband, you will regret this Chapter 29. CAN YOU ACCOMPANY ME TO THE MALL?
Jasmine's POV Ethan walked to meet me where I sat on the couch in his sitting room.“Dinner is ready.” He looked at me expectantly.He must have made something delicious and couldn't wait for a comment from me.I knew from day one that he had been a good cook.He watched me, and I stood up to take a few steps. The next thing, I was about to fall, but he rushed to my side and assisted me.Then I practically fell back on him, and we both loaded on a couch while I saw myself on his lap, facing him in that position. For a while, I noticed that I was in the same state, staring him in the eyes.“Ummm.” I hummed“Sorry about that, “Ex… Ex… Excuse me.” I stuttered.Then tried to stand up from his lap, but he held me back and looked deep into my eyes. “Why are you shy? It wasn't like this when you approached me earlier.Do you need me to help you remember that?” I ignored him. ‘Was he trying to make me start feeling shy for real?’ I thought.He allowed his lips to move on its own accord, obv
Last Updated : 2024-08-27Dear ex-husband, you will regret this Chapter 30. NEVER KNEW IT WAS A TRAP.
Bella's POV “This one looks good,” I said, grinning from ear to ear as I got a bag that has my favorite color, pink, of course.It's not just about the color, it's one of the biggest brands- Channel.They also indicated on the label that it was a limited stock from the brand.“You like it, don't you?” My mom asked calmly.“Of course, mom. I do. How were you expecting me not to? I love it.” I expressed wholeheartedly.“Ok then, you can have it.”“Thank you so much.” I said and hugged her.I quickly added it to my cart, and we continued going around the mall to pick some other things we would need.This is a ‘one-of-its-kind' shopping mall, which turns out to be the biggest in town and has a variety of stuff, but then their products are expensive. It's worth it anyway.Just as we got to the mall lobby where other customers were passing, as everyone minding were their business, I sighted Jasmine and Ethan.‘What could they possibly be doing here?’ I thought inwardly.So, after all my e

Dear ex-husband, you will regret this Chapter 110. ONE HAPPY FAMILY.
Jasmine’s POV Three years down the lane.Mr. Williams and Mrs. Leah has been jailed, and that was a life imprisonment with regard to all they were used against in the court, which includes my attempted murder and death of Ethan. Bella was also sent to prison after she was arrested abroad for drug trafficking.I had come to Ethan's grave to worship with my 2-year-old son and Luciano.“Ethan, I have come to see you and pay due respect. This is our child, and his name is Brad. He is actually 2 years old now.Isn't he adorable?Come here, son, say ‘Daddy.’” I said as soon as I dropped a bunch of flowers right before the tomb.“Daddy.”He responded cheerfully.“Doesn't he look a lot like you?Anyway, I think you are mad at me; otherwise, why haven't you ever visited me in dreams at least?Anyway, I want to remind you that I will take good care of our child for us.Before now, you were the one chasing after me, but from now on, let me engrave you in my heart.”I smiled heartily and then t
Dear ex-husband, you will regret this Chapter 109. WHY IS LUCIANO BEING INSENSITIVE?
Chapter 109. Jasmine’s POV I watched as Ethan gave up the ghost. I wailed like my life depended on him coming back to life.Just then, the police surrounded the whole vicinity, and Mrs. Leah, Mr. Williams, and the hired assassins were all apprehended.I barely noticed how Mrs. Leah kept apologizing to Mr. Williams that it was all a mistake and she never meant to kill Ethan. Instead it was me that she wanted to kill.That was before the police got in, though.Although I didn't pay much attention to them as my whole focus was fixed on Ethan's dead body that lay on my lap, with our bodies having blood all over that came from his mouth and stomach where the knife had pierced him.In no time, the ambulance came and took away Ethan's corpse.It all seemed like a dream, but I have to accept the reality the hard way.One of the officers approached me.“The record has been completed.Please accept our condolences.We would have arrived a bit earlier, and this wouldn't have happened, but we n
Dear ex-husband, you will regret this Chapter 108. PLEASE TAKE CARE OF OUR CHILD
Ethan's POV I had gotten the location of the place by the office I had called after he tracked the number I sent to him.And so I headed there at once while he informed me to get the police squad ready and so he would join me soon.As I couldn't wait any longer, I decided to rush to the location he had already shared with me.I got in the middle of the conversation where my dad and Mrs. Leah had disclosed so many things about the truth they had been hiding from me all along.Although I had heard that was the same truth Jasmine had used to claim back the heir of the Scott family but I believed it was all manipulated by Jasmine.Now, hearing my dad and Mrs. Leah admitting it all, I have no reason to see Jasmine that way.Now, I know Jasmine was innocent and she is the Nadin but there was no time for that.When I wasn't having it, I needed to stop up from the spot I hid all the while, as I had heard all I needed to know about the truth.“Stop.”I said, pausing my dad in his act as he tr
Dear ex-husband, you will regret this Chapter 107. EVEN WHEN FACING DEATH, YOU STILL HAVE TO BE TOUGH?
Williams POV“How did both of you get here? Aren't you supposed to be in prison?Does that mean you escaped custody after all your evil deeds that were labelled against you two in the law court?”Jasmine asked fiercely, trying to get up at the same time.Just when I thought she could just shut her fucking lips for once. Or it hadn't dawned on her that she was in dire danger and no one was coming to save her.Anyway, it's not her fault as she didn't know the plan is to end her life here, and nothing is ever stopping us on that.I think I needed to reset her brain a little; let's say the previous slap from the thugs didn't do enough justice, and so I went on and slapped her really hard, sending her back to the floor.“Bastard!You got me into this mess. How do you think that I could let you go just like that?”This godforsaken lady has messed up my life, big time. If not for my connections, I would definitely rot in jail over time, as I know that was part of her plan. And now, it was as
Dear ex-husband, you will regret this Chapter 106. JASMINE MIGHT BE IN DANGER.
Ethan's POV After what seemed like a short nap, I could say it's the shortest nap in the history of man, as I could feel I woke up not long after I had slept.Although I know the sleep had a lot to do with the alcohol I took and the pain I felt because I wasn't feeling sleepy nor having the thoughts of sleep before then.I staggered out to the corridor that led to my room as I wanted to ease myself at the convenience room, and then saw Nadin with my phone, though she backed me and didn't take notice of me.“Why are you with my phone?” I asked, and she freaked out as she didn't see me coming behind her.“Which day did my phone turn to yours, or do we both share the phone now without my notice?Did someone call? Who was calling?” I questioned all at a time.“Ethan... I... I...”Obviously stammering, right then, I knew she was up to something.“Give me my phone at once.”I said, stretching my hand, and took my phone from her at once.I went through the last caller because I was convince
Dear ex-husband, you will regret this Chapter 105. SO, IT'S YOU TWO AGAIN?!
Jasmine’s POVWhile I was alone, the idea to escape kept striking my mind even after many failed attempts.And so, I wouldn't stop to think within me any way I could do that.So, I managed to get a broken broken that was behind me. I had sighted it from a distance, though, after so much effort of moving backward.I commenced using the bottle to slightly cut the rope, and fortunately enough for me, I got myself untied, although I injured myself in the process and blood gushed out, but that was the least thing I could worry about now. As my nervous system was more concentrated on the danger that lies within and how I would escape, it was what seemed to overtake the better part of my thoughts.I didn't bother to untie my legs; I need to at least inform someone so at least the person could contact the police in case I am escaping and the kidnappers apprehend me on their way back or something.I think that is a nice idea, and I needed to act accordingly to that immediately.I quickly picke
Dear ex-husband, you will regret this Chapter 104. WHAT IS THE ESSENCE OF LIFE!
Ethan's POV My life has been so shattered without Jasmine.Though I had opted for the divorce at first, I felt it could make me forget things about her so fast, but that didn't help at all. I think it even made it worse.Now, thinking of the one who claimed to be Nadin is nothing like her; if I have to be honest about it all to myself, But that was exactly Nadin's face, but then, I can't really place the dots how they connect in character.I have heard her making calls secretly, requesting the completion of the money for a service she is rendering.Seems like she has a lot of secrets too, but right now, I didn't care about all of those.One thing that I find so confusing and can't even answer is, do most women keep secrets to be happy?I wouldn't even lie that it makes me weak as fuck.I feel like I was losing it, with nobody to talk to or even share my pains with because it seems Nadin isn't even close to me the way Jasmine was. My dad is behind bars and had been charged to court,
Dear ex-husband, you will regret this Chapter 103. WHO COULD HAVE WANTED ME DEAD!
Jasmine’s POV I had gone to pay another homage to my dad's tomb.At least I have accomplished a greater part, if not all, of the revenge I had promised him to get.At least Mrs. Leah, Bella, and Mr. Williams are all behind the bar now.The good thing was that the company is already doing better after like a month and half that I got in position and very soon, it would soar as high as it used to.“Dad, did you see all of that?I have avenged you.All these villains are getting what they deserve.The plan went smoothly, but you know it's impossible for me and Ethan to be together again, even though I still feel something for him.”As you know, Ethan and I are still like cats and rats who wouldn't see each other in broad daylight, but then it's not in my power to do anything about that.It's just the bitter truth he needs to face.Luciano has been so helpful in every single way I needed his help and had tried so much to respect my feelings too.Just then, I stood up to leave, but I noti
Dear ex-husband, you will regret this Chapter 102. WHY HAVEN'T YOU DIED YET?
Bella's POV Seeing how prepared Jasmine has come to spoil the show for me. Not this event that seemed like a dream come true to me, that I had waited for some time before it finally came to a reality.And so, I had to act accordingly as my mum was too stunned to react, unlike her though.Just at the heat of the moment after she played the audio, I had fully recognized my mum's voice and that of Mr. Williams, knowing how far this could go to mess things up for me. As that was already enough proof, the board members need to know what had happened to Mr. Scott for real.I quickly snatched the tape from Jasmine and smashed it on the floor.“This voice is synthesized. It's not real, and you all shouldn't believe that trash. She doesn't need to continue to deceive you all.”I persuaded, but to my surprise, no one was ready to even listen to me as they kept glaring at me like I was talking gibberish.I went close to Jasmine, trying to drag her.“You lunatic, what are you trying to do, and w
