Annabel's POV

"That was quick!" said Mr Davis as he stopped few meters away from where I stood, he smirked, "You should use this opportunity to help yourself to the rehab center, Annabel."

I chuckled despite myself, "That is where you will be in the future, Mr Davis. In fact if you ask me, the likes of you should rot in hell instead of a rehab center."

He waved his hand in the air with a grin, "I have more important things to do than stand here and argue with a divorcee."

He turned around with Vivian following behind like a puppet.

He said, "C'mon Scott, let's go get you ready."

I wondered, ready for what?

My gaze fell on Scott as he followed behind. Suddenly, he stopped and looked back just in time to see the tears forming in my eyes.

I was not ashamed of it. I wasn't also willing to hide it. I wanted him to see how much he's hurting me and remember this look when I eventually get my revenge.

A part of me hoped he would apologize and tell me once again how much he adores me.

  • Ex-Wife's Revenge: Love Me Again, Dear Husband    H U N D R E D & E I G H T E E N

    Annabel's POV.Still convinced he could get the culprit, Myron ran outside the house. I hurried over to the door and picked up the paper note.I peeled it open and found my mother's obstetric report from years ago at the Crofwell Hospital. Twin females.Myron stepped in, breathing heavily. He looked at me and said,"I couldn't get to him. It seemed someone paid him to disguise as a servant and drop those notes."When I didn't say anything, he came over and took the sheet from me. His eyes scanned through and then silence.As if fathoming what I was thinking, he said, "It's not what you think, Annabel.""It is." I whispered quietly.He sighed."That woman had a relationship with Mr Crofwell and ended up pregnant for him.""Still, that doesn't mean you are related to him.""I am." I said to him, "Infact, I could be her real daughter!""Think about it, Myron. I have never seen a man in this woman's life. While growing up, there was no time I found her with a man. This picture is the firs

    Annabel's POVDID YOU REALLY KNOW YOUR MOTHER?"Shit.." I cursed as my heart beat rapidly against my chest. I pulled the door open and stepped out in the hallway but there was no one there.I wasn't convinced. I was sure someone had slipped this note through my door. I looked further down the hallway but not a single soul was on it."Is there a problem?" "Oh God!" I nearly jumped out of my skin upon hearing a voice behind me. I exhaled and hissed slightly when it turned out to be Myron."What are you doing here?" I demanded, my voice trembling.He stared at my worried expression, "I was heading to my room. Why do you look all white? Did you see a ghost?"I stared at him and began to wonder if he had slipped that note through the door. However, it had the same inscriptions as the one that surfaced on the windscreen of my car.Myron wasn't there. Except, he was.I breathed. Maybe I'm overthinking things but then again, the same message appearing to me twice is not a simple coincidence

  • Ex-Wife's Revenge: Love Me Again, Dear Husband    H U N D R E D & S I X T E E N

    Annabel's POVI did not immediately go home after my encounter at Michelle's. I couldn't. Knowing what awaits me with the kind of man Myron is, the eagerness to return to the mansion ceased to exist.I simply hanged around restaurants and parks, watched families file in and out, their smiles reaching their ears.The kids at the park could not be any happier. It was the life I wanted for my kids but I seemed to have ruined everything by getting myself involved with Myron.The smile on my lips faded and was replaced by tears. I shouldn't have placed revenge first..I should have remained with Scott...or simply move away from the city and begin a happy life with my kids...I shouldn't have prioritized revenge over my happiness.I did not stop the tears from falling. It was that point I needed a friend...a supporter...a shoulder to cry on but I don't even have that. I have no friends, just enemies- many of them. Especially my mother. I wonder what she would say to me if she were here. She'd

    It was the photo of Mr Crofwell and Mrs King, Annabel's foster mother in his arms.Surprise registered on the faces of George and Vivian. George was the first one to react. He hissed loudly and said,"So Crofwell has a secret, huh?" he chuckled, "The bastard...I knew he should have died.""How's this possible??" Vivian found it hard to believe, "Crofwell's wife isn't Michelle's mother??"Jaggers grinned, proud of himself."As Mrs King's lawyer, I found the woman to be really secretive. She lived life as a middle class woman, selfless, honest and amiable but behind the scenes she was actually a billionairess, selfish, and vile."He continued, "When she was alive, she made people think Annabel is her adopted daughter. However, Annabel is infact Crofwell's daughter."Vivian shifted uneasily in her chair.George commented, "Life's a bitch.""It all began the day I confessed my feelings to Mrs King," Jaggers continued, his mood now somber as he recollected the past, "She was a really beaut

    Scott's POV Without another word, Annabel turned and walked into her car. I did not stop her even if I wanted to. I felt tired of trying to make her see things the way I see them. How much of a revenge does she crave for that she had to choose Myron over me, over a happy life with our kids? I turned around and walked back into the house. If Annabel does not come to terms with me, I might give up already. Perhaps it's high time I accept the fact that she could never be mine again. "Thank God you're here, Scott!" Michelle approached me the moment I stepped through the door, "I don't know what I would have done to make that sly woman leave me alone." I paused, enough for her to notice my mood. "Is something wrong, honey?" she asked, placing her hand on my shoulders. I exhaled, "I want the truth, Mich." She stiffened, "Don't tell me you believe Annabel's words?" "I-" "You said you're willing to give us a chance. Does that not include you trusting me?" she asked. "I don't trust y

    Annabel's POVLeaving her breathless, he said, "I came for you, not her."I stiffened upon hearing that.Michelle was surprised, "For me??" She questioned, finding it hard to believe. Her gaze fell on me and then back at Scott who wouldn't bat an eyelid towards me."Do.. do you mean that? Or is this a set up? You both are trying to deceive me, aren't you?""No-" I began but stopped when Scott reached out and held Michelle by the waist."This is no deceit, Mich." he said, "I'm willing to give us a chance. I have learned the hard way."Michelle looked into his eyes, hoping he was saying the truth. When she eventually confirmed the honest look in his eyes, she released a sharp breath and threw her hands around him.I stood still, watching the display before me. My heart squeezed inside my chest and even if I wanted to cry, the tears did not come.I guess I must have pushed Scott to his limit and he has finally given up on me. "Oh, Scott!" Michelle exclaimed, her earlier somber expressio
