EX Wife (ENGLISH) TWENTY FIVE
Exelle..."What kind of trick is this? A déjà vu?"I cast a bored gaze at the two people standing side by side in a place where there isn't a soul around. Beside them is a grass wall, one of the structures forming the hotel's maze garden. And due to the height of this grassy wall, it obscures the view of the two people on the other side.I stood there silently.My gaze was as deep as the night itself, contrasting with the lively and brightly lit atmosphere of the hotel surrounding me.Feeling the cold night breeze, I tightly grasped the glass of red wine I brought with me. I sneered as I slowly blinked my eyes as if I were about to fall asleep. I didn’t feel like engaging with the 'two,' but seeing them here, intimately holding each other like that, didn't help me at all—it just made me sick."Tsk. I knew I’ve been fooling myself with my fucking hopes," I murmured, clicking my tongue as I turned around to leave the place. I could feel the heaviness of my steps, but I still managed to

Exelle. . ."Yes. It might be difficult to obtain it in just three days," I responded while continuing to walk. Each step I took made a distinct sound as my shoes touched the floor.My footsteps echoed in the hallway, but it was only me in this part of the Mondregal mansion, where my office is located."Then should we contact the Millers, Miss Kim?" Mrs. Holland asked, but before I could reply, my tongue froze, and I paused in my tracks.I couldn't help but stare at the figure from a short distance away, holding a bouquet of roses in one hand. His back was carefully leaned against the cream-painted wall of the hallway as he delicately sniffed the flowers he brought close to his nose. His black hair, neatly combed, had a few strands that danced with the breeze coming through the open window.I almost smiled at the scene, but I froze when a memory suddenly surfaced.*** "He's greedy, Xiellenna. He may not look like it, but he was born a schemer," Hans's serious expression met my

ExelleEmotions change every single second.I might have liked something yesterday, but if it cost me a fortune or my life, that fondness would turn into hatred. It would change even more if not only my life was at stake.I've been chasing a life filled with peace, but because of my past, I can't even guarantee a single hand that could help me reach those dreams.Will it end somehow?But when will all this finally end?~"Lena Islands. Do you know where it is?"Of course, I lied to him. I told him I had heard of it, but in reality, I didn't know anything about it. I couldn’t even recall my parents or my grandfather ever mentioning it to me. But is it just me, or is there some memory from the past that I can't quite remember?"Xiellenna."I turned to the

Third Person's PoV"Wow!"The young Xiellenna exclaimed when she saw the beautiful view of an island below the clouds where their family's private plane flew over. It was a crescent-shaped island with man-made extensions, featuring a castle-like building on top of a hill, resembling a fairytale setting from storybooks."Wow~wow~wow. Mom! Dad! It has a castle on the hills!" the seven-year-old Xiellenna excitedly said again before turning around to face her smiling parents. "Oh my~look over there! Amazing.""Our baby must really like it," Lillian said before embracing her approaching child. She gently stroked her daughter's hair and gave her a kiss. Her daughter giggled and nodded."Yup, mama. Xielle really likes it. No, I mean~I really, really, really like it." Xiellenna giggled in her mother's arms. It was warm and cozy, making her feel secure and s

Exelle"She's looking for Raellina," I said, taking a sip of water from the glass.Rylie is looking for her twin sister, Raellina. And as I remember from Rylie before I lost my memories when I was ten, she told me she needed a heart. But that doesn’t mean that if she had successfully killed me back then, she would have gotten what she wanted.Because if I really died when she pushed me down the stairs, she still wouldn’t have been able to use my heart for a transplant. And we were just kids back then. And currently thinking about her whereabouts, I’m not sure if Raellina is still alive."Mama, she looks like Rylie!"I remembered a vague memory of mine, back when I first saw Raellina on the Lena Islands. I thought she was Rylie back then, but my papa corrected me about it, and they even asked me to keep it a secret. During

Exelle.."Mondregal, Howard, Vanidestine, Hara, and Wang."Audrey paused in her speech when she noticed me looking at her, listening intently. I remained seated on the bed. It felt strange because she wasn’t reading from EXellene Royale, but instead, she was discussing information about the five families that govern the NCI.Audrey coughed lightly as I smiled and nodded slightly."Mondregal is the family whose NCI headquarters is currently located on Lena Islands. A Philippine-European NCI family. More importantly, this is where our family, the Ryans, work for," Audrey continued and then moved on to the next family. "Next is the South Korean Wang family. While the Mondregal NCI HQ works together with the EU Intelligence and Service Center or the EU INTCEN of the European continent and the National Intelligence Cooperating Agency of the Philippines, the Wang fami

Third Person's PoV---Dark's gaze remained fixed on the sleeping figure of Exelle. He watched the young woman as he stood by the side of her bed. Behind him was Audrey, nervously biting her lips."I shouldn't have given her that video," Dark's ears twitched as he heard his cousin speak. The sadness and concern were evident in her voice as her eyes seemed to lose their strength, quietly staring at Exelle.But he just shook his head. "She still has the right to know what really happened to Samara," and that's the truth. No matter how much they tried to hide what truly happened, Exelle would find out sooner or later. Aside from the fact that the video was an irrefutable piece of evidence for Samara's death, it was also one of the few pieces of evidence they had against Riguera."We can no longer be complacent against the Black

Exelle..."So, are you telling Xiellenna? Those things that you've heard and seen?" Rylie's voice pierced my ears. Her tone was so arrogant that it made me want to run over and yank her hair off her head.She's infuriating me, but honestly, I have no idea what's going on.Because everything around me is darkness. As I opened my eyes while listening to the strange noise around me that I couldn’t explain, all I could see was endless darkness.It was so cold and eerie.It was also so quiet, yet every now and then, I would hear a sound spreading around me. The noise echoed and lingered until it faded into the distance, only to be followed by another unknown sound. It repeated over and over again.At first, it was like the drip of water, then the sound of someone being slapped, followed by something breaking, and then something hard falling. The mi

ExelleI looked at my hands, which were tied with nylon rope, before glancing at Alexis, who was silently standing in front of me. I saw how he clenched his hands into fists.At the same time, he turned to look at Rylie, who still remained unconscious."Take her to the gallery," Alexis said, and the newcomer immediately followed the order.I didn’t say anything and just relaxed my body, while still pointing the gun in their direction, ignoring the fact that Rylie was being carried out of the place. I secretly glanced behind me to check the area, and I was relieved to see another door leading out of the hallway.My eyes then shifted to the round window in the door, which was just to my left. The window, made of clear glass, made it easier for me to see the transparent glass window in the rectangular frame inside the room, which offered a clear view

ExelleI huffed for a moment before glaring at the two bastards standing side by side at the doorway.I didn’t struggle to escape, but my mind was awake enough to function and think of the things I needed to do.Although it’s no use doing it now, I calmed myself and let them do whatever they wanted. I felt tired, but honestly, I was just waiting for the right timing, a chance where I could fight them more freely and escape from their grasp. I don’t believe that there’s no escape in the middle of the sea, unless the chances of surviving are too slim to be possible.‘I still have Dark.’‘Yes. I still have him.’‘And I trust him.’I kept reminding myself that this would all be over soon. That’s actually the purpose of those words. It&rsq

THIRD PERSON'S POV...The red dot on Techno's monitor flickered. Dark watched it with a furrowed brow as he continued giving orders to his team. But his heart skipped a beat when the red dot, which represented Exelle's location, suddenly started to move."What's happening?" Dark dashed over to Techno's station and asked him, who continued typing rapidly on his keyboard."The PH-HQ must have figured out what's going on," Techno replied, and as if on cue, a radio connected to the other team crackled to life.There was a long silence before a muffled voice came through the radio. It was Bern, Bernardino Morales, the leader of the NCI Philippine HQ team."This is Alpha B of PH-HQ, reporting. The target is on the move. We can only watch from the sidelines until your men arrive because they outnumber our team," Bern reported from the other end. He pa

Exelle...When I opened my eyes, I saw a figure of a man sitting in front of me. But upon recognizing who it was, I frowned and shot him a hateful glare."You f*ckin' bastard!" I yelled at him, but he didn't respond.I tried moving my body, only to discover that my wrists were tied behind me. As I struggled, the metal shackles on my ankles and wrists clanged noisily against the cold cement floor.I groaned as pain shot through my wrists from the struggle. It infuriated me so much that I didn't even think about the danger I was in because my anger at seeing his face took over. I anxiously looked around, realizing we were in a room with no windows, just a door, and a large mirror on one wall.It was the kind of room you often see in dramas and movies. The one that looks like an interrogation room."Don't waste your time struggling. You won't escape from
