EX-HUSBAND'S REGRET: "Mommy, please forgive Daddy." 102
It was Saturday. Alexa and Elena already made plans to stay indoors throughout the day and spend quality time with the kids. Elena had strictly warned Alexa against working on this day because she wanted him to take a temporary break away from everything that had to do with Jordan and his case.It was past 10 in the morning, but Alexa and Elena were still very busy in the kitchen as they made arrangements for a successful and entertaining family day. While Alexa made the snacks, Elena assisted in baking them. The toddlers were still asleep as it was the weekend."So, how is work in general? And please I don't want to hear anything relating to Jordan." Elena stated as she gently placed one of the baking trays in the oven.Alexa, who was kneading dough, lifted her gaze and chuckled upon hearing Elena's words.She shrugged. "Well, work is fine. Nothing much has been happening if it doesn't have anything to do with Jordan." Alexa elaborated before lowering her gaze to the dough she was k

A warm smile was etched across Ivy's features as she reciprocated Alexa's bewildered state."Hello, Alexa,""I- Ivy?" Alexa stuttered, unable to believe her eyes. She regarded Ivy with skepticism, her gaze scrutinizing as they lowered to observe her appearance. That was when Alexa noticed the bouquet of roses Ivy was holding. Her confusion deepened as she couldn't comprehend what was going on. It had been ages since she last saw Ivy, and seeing her on a random Saturday after four whole years fazed Alexa.However, she quickly regained her composure as she recalled Ivy wasn't one to be entertained in her home. They were enemies."What are you doing here?" Alexa demanded sharply as she redirected her gaze at Ivy."I come in peace," Ivy said calmly. "I don't care what you come in..." Alexa cut her off, "What. Are. You. Doing. Here?" She snapped, her annoyance resurfacing as she recalled how Ivy had badly treated her in the best. Of course, Alexa already knew the reason she was at her do

Ivy's irritation only intensified, recalling all that had transpired between her and Alexa just a few minutes ago. As she made a right turn on the road, heading in the direction of the state prison, she let out a spiteful hiss as she reabsorbed Alexa's rejection."That low life had the guts to reject my gifts?" She pondered, a wave of disbelief and annoyance coursing through her. She was furious. She hated Alexa's guts. She hated the way she had cast her out like she meant nothing. Oh if not for Jordan's sake, heaven knows Ivy would be dealing with Alexa brutally by now. But for Jordan's sake, she had to keep her emotions under control. Just like Catherine, she still harbored a deep-seated resentment towards Alexa.Ivy jolted from her reverie as her eyes caught the Prison signpost, indicating she had arrived at the station. She cautiously navigated the car into the parking lot before pulling by the curb.Heaving a sigh, she let out another sigh as she turned off her ignition. Ivy sto

"Have you heard from Grandpa yet?" Jordan asked, breaking free from his thoughts and searching Ivy's eyes for answers.Ivy let out a weary sigh and shook her head. "Not yet, but I plan to visit him later today," she clarified."Please do. I don’t understand why he hasn’t come to see me. I’m starting to wonder if he really means what he said about disowning me. He intends to cut me off, Ivy," Jordan replied, his voice tinged with confusion. "At first, I thought he was just joking, but it doesn't feel that way anymore," he admitted, a wave of anxiety washing over him."Calm down; he won’t go through with it," Ivy reassured him, maintaining eye contact. "Not while I'm here.""You remember how he sent you to that terrible place when you messed up two years ago, right?" Jordan reminded her, hoping to convey his perspective.Ivy smiled warmly. "Yes, I remember, and I also remember who came to my rescue... It was you. You helped me.""I know that Ivy, but that’s not my point," he replied. "I

Ivy entered the expansive building situated in the city's core after parking her car in the garage.Her strides were confident and resolute as she approached the company's entrance, her expression neutral. With her head held high, she walked past her colleagues, making her way to the elevator.Though Ivy was acutely aware of the curious glances directed at her, she remained unfazed. She understood that her presence often commanded attention. However, at that moment, she speculated that their astonished looks stemmed either from her striking appearance or their surprise at her return to the company.It was difficult for Ivy to recall how long it had been since her last visit. Nevertheless, she took a deep breath as she rode the elevator alone to her grandfather Torrey's office on the top floor.Upon her grandfather's response to her knocking, Ivy gently turned the doorknob and stepped into the spacious office.There, she found her grandfather engrossed in a stack of documents at his de

Ivy was delicately scrolling through some piles of documents that related to Jordan's case when her mother abruptly walked into her room. Her presence disrupted Ivy's focus as Catherine called for her attention."Hey," Catherine greeted as she covered the gap between them.Lifting her gaze to match hers, Ivy expelled a weary sigh as she lowered the paperwork in her hand. "Hey, Mom,""What are you doing?" Catherine asked, her gaze peering at the workload on Ivy's desk. She frowned as she accessed the piles of documents. "That seems like a lot."Glancing at the workload, Ivy couldn't help but nod in agreement. "Yeah, I'm so exhausted..." As she leaned back in her chair for a break, that was when she noticed the time on the wall clock hung in her room. "Damn, past 10?" Ivy noted sharply.Settling into the chair beside Ivy, Catherine chuckled at her bewilderment. "Yeah, how long have you been working here?" "Since I got back from Grandfather's office..." Ivy sighed and added. "Nearly six

"Yeah, I'll take those," Luciana told the florist as she pointed at a peculiar bouquet of roses on the flower counter.The florist, a young lady, nodded briskly before making her way to retrieve the flowers from the counter. Thereafter, heading inside the shop to package them nicely for Luciana.Luciana's heart thudded in her chest as she glanced at her surroundings, her gaze occasionally traveling to observe the watch adorning her wrist as though she was late for a meeting. This was because she had booked an appointment in someone else's name in order to visit a special person on this day. Surprisingly, the person she intended to visit with the bouquet of roses she had just gotten from the flower shop, was Alexa. Funny, right?Luciana had resolved after she met with Raven the other day that the only way she would be able to keep Alexa off her tracks was by befriending her and using that means to uncover Alexa's secrets. They said to keep your enemies close, right? This was the strate

"Ma'am, you have an appointment in ten minutes," Sapphire announced politely, prompting Alexa to glance up from her computer, her brow furrowing in confusion."An appointment?" Alexa replied, bewildered. "Who is it with?"She had just asked about her daily schedule when Sapphire revealed the existence of an appointment she was completely unaware of.Sapphire narrowed her eyes at the file she held, reading aloud, "Maria Gonzalez."The name struck Alexa as somewhat peculiar, leading her to scoff, as she had no familiarity with it. "Maria what?""Gonzalez," Sapphire repeated, maintaining eye contact with Alexa.Alexa shook her head, leaning back in her chair. "I don't know who that is... Do you have any idea who she might be?" She asked Sapphire, struggling to comprehend the unfamiliar name. The thought of meeting with someone she had never encountered before unsettled her."No idea, ma'am, but she did mention that it was urgent," Sapphire replied, cutting through Alexa's thoughts and br

"Mommy, are you going to be seeing Daddy soon?" Blair asked her mother as they began heading towards the airport terminal. They had just landed a few minutes ago and they were currently strutting towards the terminal, where Alexa knew Elena would be waiting for her. She texted her a few minutes ago of their arrival and Elena had reassured her that she was already at the airport terminal.Alexa looked down at her child, who was holding her hand firmly. She offered Blair a soft smile and nodded curtly, although unsure if they would really be seeing Jordan today. "Sure, baby, you'll be seeing Daddy soon,""I can't wait, Mommy," Blair grinned, displaying a small set of teeth that caused Alexa's heart to melt at her cuteness.Atlas also chimed in, grinning from ear to ear. "Me too, Mommy! I missed Daddy so much and I can't wait to tell him about my girlfriend in school."Alexa chuckled with amusement at her son's antics. It was true; even Atlas had found love in some girl at the new schoo

**ONE YEAR LATER**"Oh my goodness, Alexa, I'm so excited!" Elena's thrilled voice resonated through the phone as Alexa clutched the phone to her ear.A smile spread across her face as she absorbed Elena's excitement. Even though she couldn't see the woman closely, she could imagine the happiness that was currently radiating from her. Elena sounded so thrilled."I'll be at the airport, Alexa, I swear. I'll leave work. I'll wait for you till you touch down. Gosh, I can't wait!" She screeched enthusiastically.Alexa couldn't help but chuckle as she absorbed Elena's promise. She couldn't blame her; she was also dying to see her just as much as Elena couldn't wait to see her. How much time has passed since they last saw each other? One whole year.That's right, the last time Alexa had seen Elena was when she had left the country a year ago after what happened with Tyler and Jordan. It had taken her six whole months to gather herself before she began even reaching out to Elena again.Elen

Jordan was distraught as he rang Alexa for the second time and there was still no response. He checked his messages to see if she had replied to his texts but also there was no response. A frown crossed his face as he couldn't comprehend Alexa's sudden change.He was worried and he wished he was back in the city so he could visit her. However, he was currently out of town as he had gone on a business trip as the new head of JS Enterprises. He had merely concluded the meeting when he decided to call her again. However, all of his calls went straight to voicemail. Worry gnawed at Jordan as he thought something might have happened. His heart constricted painfully at the idea that Tyler must have returned to Alexa's home to confront her. What if that was the reason she wasn't taking any of his calls again? What if something had happened, and maybe Tyler had overreacted like before?These considerations had Jordan's heart racing frantically as worry consumed him. Checking his messages one

'Baby, you haven't been taking my calls, I hope you're doing okay. I'll be coming later. I love you.' Alexa stared at Jordan's message for the umpteenth feeling a clog in her throat as she read it. It was true; she hadn't been taking his calls and had been completely avoidant since what happened with Tyler. Tyler still hadn't been taking her calls nor replying to any of her apology messages. Alexa was fazed and worried. Although she never wanted things to end like this, she felt this was best for everyone."Hey, are you good?" Elena's voice disrupted Alexa's thoughts as she asked her friend with concern laden in her tone. Alexa, who had been sitting down staring at her phone as she got prepared in the living room, looked up at her friend and nodded slowly. "Uhm, I am.""Are you sure?" Elena asked, holding Alexa's gaze. "Are you sure this is it, Alexa?" She asked further so Alexa could really comprehend the depth of her question.Alexa swallowed and nodded curtly, averting her eyes a

"Jordan!" Alexa exclaimed with terror as Jordan seized Tyler up, ready to punch him across the face again but Alexa quickly tugged at his arm, halting him effectively. "Stop it, stop it, please," she cried out, gripping Jordan's arm tightly.Jordan seethed with rage as he glared at Tyler, whose nostrils were now trickling with blood. He could barely control his raging emotions as all he wanted at that moment was to teach Tyler a lesson for calling Alexa a 'whore.' How dare he?"Jordan, please, stop it. Let him go," Alexa's pleas sailed into his ears, causing his heart to ache. He reluctantly loosened his hold on Tyler's collar at Alexa's order. Jordan was pissed off. "He doesn't deserve you, Alexa,""I know, still let him go, Jordan. Let him go right now," she asserted firmly, her heart twisting with anguish. Gosh, she hated this. She had tried her best to avoid this drama but she guessed she failed in doing so. Acutely aware this wasn't the time to berate herself as she had two me

An overwhelming feeling of shock and bewilderment coursed through Alexa as she met Tyler's furious gaze. Tyler had just barged into her office unannounced and his demeanor screamed of nothing but pure anger. "T-Ty," Alexa stuttered, prompting Jordan to turn to face the man who had just entered.The two men locked eyes in a heated gaze until Tyler started with a snap. "Really, Alexa?" He shook his head with disbelief. "Really?"Even though she couldn't comprehend what he meant by that, her heart raced wildly as she absorbed his indifference. He looked miffed and with the way he glared at Jordan, Alexa didn't need a soothsayer to tell her that Tyler must have found out the truth somehow. But how come? It wasn't supposed to be like this. She had planned to tell him herself. No, no, this was bad."Ty," She called out to him frantically as she pulled out of her thoughts. Her eyes held remorse as they met his gaze. "What is the matter?" She asked skeptically, trying not to believe he had

Tyler Sterling recoiled from his desk as he watched the news of Luciana's arrest. His brows creased with a frown, seeing the offense Luciana had been apprehended of. He was familiar with the woman. He remembered she had paid him a visit just two days before her arrest, to inform him that Alexa was cheating on him with someone else. Tyler had brushed her off, registering her words as absurd. Even though he hadn't confronted Alexa yet as she had been very busy with work, Tyler still trusted her completely. He believed Alexa wasn't capable of doing that. And even though they weren't really in a real relationship yet, he knew the feelings Alexa harbored for him.As Jordan continued watching the news on TV concerning Luciana's arrest and her downfall, he couldn't help but notice the man with Alexa behind the scenes. He flinched as he recognized him to be Jordan Salvador, the same man he had been noticing with Alexa and also the one Luciana had cited Alexa was cheating on him with.Tyler's
EX-HUSBAND'S REGRET: "Mommy, please forgive Daddy." 151
With Jordan as the new head of the company, he was able to apprehend Luciana on time with Alexa's help."Dear Miss Henderson, you're under arrest for the setup of Jordan Salvador. You have the right to remain silent, as anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney..." The police officers who had arrested Jordan before now, said to Luciana as they secured the cuffs around her wrists.Luciana's face was etched with horror as she looked from the officers to Jordan and Alexa who had led her arrest. Alexa smirked smugly, while Jordan shook his head in disappointment as he met Luciana's gaze."I will ensure you rot in prison for this, Luciana. That is a promise." Jordan said to her callously, his eyes darkening with rage. "Take her away and lock her up."Luciana was fazed. She hadn't expected they would arrest her. She believed they were still clueless that she was the one who had framed Jordan. It seemed she had thought wrong.Des

Luciana had just gotten off the phone with Raven and her eyes blazed with fury as she grappled with the reality of what had happened. Raven had just informed her about Alexa's visit to her office.Annoyance coursed through Luciana as she pondered her thoughts, unable to fathom what had led Alexa to restart the investigation. She thought everything had ended with Jordan's release, how come Alexa was still prying into her privacy and trying to look into matters that didn't concern her?Luciana's insides coursed with a bit of relief as she reflected on Raven's assurance. "I didn't tell her anything. But you need to do something about this."Luciana had reassured Raven that she was going to handle it but at that moment, she couldn't think of anything else. Well, maybe it was time to finally expose Alexa's secrets to the firm and get her fired? Luciana pondered. Only then will Alexa be able to back off from the investigation as it was no longer an official case? But why had she restarted
