Ex-husband wants my New Body Chapter 65: Your passing will be quick
**Valerie**A sense of uneasiness filled me as I emptied my drink in hand and placed the glass on the table. “I should probably head home and rest; I still have work to submit by Monday,” I lied. My eyes were a bit heavy just after a few glasses.“Val,” she placed a hand on mine, her eyes piercing into my skin. “You won't have to.”Something about the way she said it sent shivers down my spine. And strangely, Amelia's words echoed in my head. *You'll find out soon enough. Let's just say you won't be a problem for much longer.*I just considered Amelia a blabbermouth. But now that I think about it, could there be more to her statement?I looked at Tessa's hand and then her face, and I saw a tiny smirk on her lips that seemed more off than usual.“Ohh,” I mumbled, pulling my hand away from hers. I did not want to ask her what that statement meant; I was scared to. I was scared of the next words that might come out of her mouth, so I decided it'd be best to just leave.Standing to my fee

**Third person**Karen's mansion later that night.“The deed is done.” The hired man stood before Karen, hands at his back, while his expression was stoic. Karen placed a leg over the other, her eyes gleaming with satisfaction. "And the body?" She asked, her voice low.“The car went over a cliff. The cops will find it soon enough,” he replied.Karen nodded, a cold smile spreading across her face. "Good. Make sure there are no loose ends.”“Yes, ma'am.”Just then, Victor entered the room, and Karen immediately turned to him with a smile. “You're just on time; everything turned out just fine,” she blurted out with a smile, forgetting that they weren't alone. The realization hit her, and she regained her composure at once, clearing her throat as she looked away from Victor. “So how's Amanda? Is she getting better?” she asked with a straight face.Victor's expression flickered, a brief hesitation before responding. "She's... fine. Recovering well."Then he bowed slightly and made to lea

**Third person** At the Stone's Enterprises, Lucas shoved his hands into his pocket, his gaze fixed on somewhere outside the window. “So it is authentic?” He asked Calvin. Calvin nodded. “Yes, as far as the experts could tell.” Lucas clenched his jaw slightly and then drew in a sharp breath. “Then that means she lied?” “I wouldn't exactly say that though,” he paused. “You remember that our findings were a bit strange.” “Mmhm,” Lucas hummed thoughtfully, his head bobbing slightly. “And what have you been about to get on that anonymous person?” "Uh..." Calvin hesitated. There wasn't much he could have gathered in a few days. Lucas pulled out a hand from his pocket, ran it through his hair, and then turned to look at Calvin. “Valerie said that he has texted her just twice,” he stated. “The first was something trivial, and then this.” Calvin furrowed his brow slightly. “Something trivial?” he asked. But Lucas continued anyway, ignoring Calvin's question. “And the initials he

**Third person**Valerie had just stepped into Harrisons Enterprises.She was wearing a black stiletto, her lips painted a bright shade of red that matched her fitted dress. Lucas was walking by her side, while the cops were behind them.Adam ran up to them as soon as he saw Valerie. “Val… Valerie… I was so worried,” he confessed, his eyes sparkling and his entire teeth on display. Then he turned, his expression becoming serious. “Mr. Stone?” Adam bowed slightly. “I hope there's no problem, especially since you brought..." His eyes darted to the three policemen briefly. “...company.”Lucas’s expression remained grim. “They'll be leaving with the person who tried to murder my fiance.”“Mur… Murder?” Adam stuttered, his eyes widening in shock. “Someone tried to kill Valerie?” And at that moment, Adam immediately reached for Valerie’s hand. “Are you okay?”Lucas furrowed his brow at the scene, his hand flying to break their contact. Then he pulled Valerie close before shooting a glare a

**Valerie**I walked back to my office, a surge of satisfaction coursing through me. One man down; next would be Karen. Taking a sharp breath, the events of that night replayed in my mind. I had somehow managed to get a second chance.***Few days ago***I slowly opened my eyes, taking in the surroundings. The table, chair, wall… This wasn't my room. So where was I?Rubbing my eyes with the back of my palm to ward off sleepiness, I said up gently. The images of the last thing I could remember flashed through my head, and a shiver ran down my spine.Tessa spiking my drink... Me trying to get away... the men trying to carry me afterwards... And then my mind went blank. But why did they bring me here? I thought they must have killed me by now. I wrapped my trembling arms around my chest in fear as my mind reeled. “Wait, am I in heaven?” I murmured to myself.“Do you really think you'd go to heaven if you died?” A voice startled me. I looked up to see Lucas."Lucas?" My voice was barel

**Third person**Karen stormed into her office, slamming the door behind her. She paced back and forth, her anger boiling over as Valerie's words replayed in her mind.*Amelia said the same thing on Friday. Guess who's going to sleep in a cell tonight?*Karen's fist clenched, and she gritted her teeth. “How dare she threaten me?” she thundered, her hands flying to her table. And object after object, she tossed them at the wall before finally swiping all the papers off the table.Then suddenly, she stopped and picked up her phone, her mind drifting to the bastard who told her that the job was done, that Valerie was dead."Answer," she growled into the receiver as soon as he picked up.A hesitant voice spoke on the other end. "Ma'am?""Why is she still alive?" Karen demanded. There was a pause before the voice responded. “Who?” His confusion was evident in his voice.“Fucking idiot,” she cursed. “Who did I ask you to get rid of?” “Valerie Thorne? What's the fuss about?” The man spoke

**Valerie**I walked into the knitting club, scanning the room for the familiar faces. Then I spotted Frances and Grandma, chatting and clicking their knitting needles. A bright smile plastered on my face, and my heart swelled with emotion as I made my way over to them."Hey, girl!" Frances exclaimed, tapping on the seat beside her and gesturing for me to sit. "We were just talking about you; it's been a while.”“Yeah,” I smiled again, taking a seat beside them.Frances leaned towards me. “The getaway dick got you real good, didn't it?” She whispered into my ear.I sputtered a cough, almost choking on my own spit.My cheeks turned red with embarrassment, and my lips spread into a small cheesy smile as I recalled my conversation with her at the bar. I cleared my throat and then looked up to meet her expectant eyes. Ah... Guess that wasn't a rhetorical question.Then I equally leaned towards her. “Wasn't quite what I was expecting,” I confessed in a whisper.She gasped softly. “Wait… D

**Third person**I sipped my coffee, my eyes locked onto Matthew's. “When I'm done with Karen, my parents are next.”Then my gaze shifted from him to somewhere beside his chair. “I need to know how my mom felt conspiring against her own daughter.” I sucked my teeth and wiped my face as a stray tear escaped from the side of my eye.“I wonder what it was like for her. Was it easy? Did she hesitate?” My chest tightened, and my voice came out in broken pieces. “Who knows, maybe she probably even brought up the idea. But still, I'd never understand why.”“Valerie,” Matt called out, placing a comforting palm on my shoulder. And from my tear-blurred eyes, I could see his jaw clench. “What good is having a family anyway? when all they do is betray and abandon you?”I shrugged, trying to seem unaffected even though it still hurt like yesterday. “Well, I'm fine now. That's all in the past. I don't have a family anymore.” I said, trying to keep my voice firm. He nodded and then gave my shoulder

**Third person** Valerie dragged her heavy eyes open. She blinked a couple of times to clear her vision. The smell of drugs and antiseptic and hospital filled her nose. Beside her, Lucas sat with his eyes closed. Almost immediately she jumped up on the bed. “Let me go,” she shouted, startling Lucas. He climbed the bed and pulled her into his arms. “It's okay, you're safe now,” he whispered softly, planting kiss after kiss on her hair and forehead. Valerie relaxed into his embrace, her racing heart finally calm. A tear slipped from his eyes and he wiped it. He'd thought he'd lost her. “I'm sorry I couldn't keep you safe. I should have anticipated it, I should—” “It's not your fault,” she cut him off gently. “It's not.” Tears trailed down her own cheeks and she sniffed. “What happened to Matthew?” A muscle ticked in Lucas's jaw, he felt Matt had an easy fate after everything he did. "Dead." Valerie let out a breath she didn't know she was holding, her body shaking with relieve

**Third person**“Let's move, slowly,” Matt murmured in Valerie's ears, his hot breath fanning against her skin. His eyes were still locked onto Lucas—who was practically shooting daggers at Matt with his eyes."Matthew, please," Valerie whispered back, her voice trembling. "You don't have to do this. You can still let me go."Matt's jaw tightened, his chest heaving with desperation and anger. "Do you really think I'm stupid?" he hissed. "You want me to let you go? I should just allow you to run into his arms?" He questioned in a mocking tone.“Drop your weapon and surrender,” the police announced again but neither Valerie nor Matt paid any attention. “Best believe that if I do that, then I'll shoot you from behind before you get to him,” Matt added. The chilling sensation in his voice sent a shiver down Valerie's spine.“Man to man,” Lucas began, his voice almost a growl. “What would it take for you to let her go? Anything at all… name it. Even if you don't want to spend a single da
Ex-husband wants my New Body Chapter 168: Freeze!
**Third person**It took Matthew half the time it would normally take to get to the bunker. He parked his car at a safe distance before running over to the location. And with each step he took, his mind raced, his heart pounded with anxiety. He couldn't afford to lose her now that he was so close. They'd literally be leaving the country today. Valerie please be there, please be there, Matt murmured, his legs moving faster.A half-relieved sigh left his lips when he reached the entrance and saw that the door was still locked—She was still here. His trembling fingers sifted through his bunch of keys, his breath gaspy and he wiped the sweat on his forehead with the back of his palm.Matt unlocked the door and then pushed it open forcefully. His eyes blazing with anger and anxiety found Valerie immediately. She was curled up at a corner, her cheeks stained with tears and her hands and feet shaking."What have you done??!" he growled, his voice venomous.She frowned in confusion, even th

**Third person**Matt seemed to ponder for a moment before he exhaled deeply. Then he moved over to the table and picked up a small knife. He began cutting the ropes. His jaw clenched at the red mark the ropes left on her skin, a pang of guilt coursing through him. He'd done this to her, he thought. “Do you need me to get you anything from the store?”Finally untied, Valerie examined her free hands and legs, a sense of relief and determination washing over her. “No, thanks.”“I'll be back soon.” He gave her a warning look. “Don't try anything stupid.”She nodded vigorously. “I wouldn't dare.”Satisfied, Matthew turned around and headed out. Valerie had her timid and innocent mask on, until the moment Matthew was out of view.She squeezed her eyes shut and then began counting from one to fifty in her head, giving Matthew enough time to leave the premises. Even with her eyes closed, she could hear the locks click behind him.When she was done, she sprang to her feet, her eyes desperat
Ex-husband wants my New Body Chapter 166: Untie me
**Third person**Eighteen hours had passed since Valerie's disappearance.Lucas stood in the center of his living room, surrounded by computers and anxious faces. His team of experts, handpicked from the best in the business, worked tirelessly to track down any lead on his woman.But so far, neither his team nor the police have been able to come up with anything tangible. There was also no signal from the tracker in Valerie's necklace. Either her kidnapper knew that the necklace was bugged and got rid of it, or they were under water, in a bunker, or somewhere that'll block the signal.One thing for sure; he'd find Valerie and he'd find her soon. Even if it meant turning the planet upside down. She'd be found.News about her and disappearance was all over the media and there was a huge cash prize for whoever brought relevant information on her whereabouts. Lucas ran a palm across his exhausted face. Deep lines creased his forehead, and his jaw was set in a rigid clench. "Broaden the
Ex-husband wants my New Body Chapter 165: Why are you doing this?
**Third person** It was almost as if Valerie disappeared just when Elliot blinked. After dismissing the woman who'd come to talk to him, he looked up but he didn't find his boss. Damnit! He'd clenched his jaw and quickened his pace, his hand instinctively resting on the gun holstered at his hip as he rushed outside. Eyes scanned everywhere around but there was no trace of her. "Miss Thorne?" he called out, his mind racing. “Ashley?” He called louder. “Valerie?” There was no response. Immediately, he dialed her number… once, twice, thrice… until it was unreachable. He'd rushed over to some passersby to ask if they'd seen her… There was nothing. Shit! Just then, his phone started ringing. Elliot pulled the device out and stared at the screen, his throat suddenly feeling dry as he registered the caller ID—Mr. Stone. He took a deep breath and then pressed the answer button. ***************************** Valerie's eyes fluttered open, her gaze was blurry and unfocused. She tri

**Third person**Valerie's blood ran cold as she stared at the picture attached to the message. It was a picture of a small boy, no more than two years old. The fact that he was a spitting image of Lucas Stone had goosebumps erupting all over her skin—same blue eyes, jet-black hair, nose, lips, jawline…Val's heart rate increased. Her son was truly alive?“We’re heading to the hospital; Mr. Stone said we're meeting him there?” Elliot asked, his hands already on the ignition.Valerie nodded absent mindedly and he started the car.She felt a surge of adrenaline coursing through her veins as she stuck her head outside the window. Breeze hit her face but it did nothing to calm her. She knew that she had to lose Elliot, and fast. As the car moved through the city, she spotted a convenience store up ahead and made a split-second decision. "I need to stop and get some water," she said suddenly.Elliot frowned and glanced at the bottle of water sitting in the middle of the car compartment.
Ex-husband wants my New Body Chapter 163: He dies
**Third person**Valerie's smile broadened into a full-blown grin. "Oh, don't think it's unfair if justice isn't served for your lover's sister."Karen frowned, her eyes narrowing. "My lover? What do you mean?" What did this have to do with Victor, she hasn't even heard from him, Karen wondered.Valerie locked her eyes onto Karen's. "Victor, your bodyguard... the one you've been fucking.” She paused to study Karen's face—she didn't look so confident anymore. “But you killed his sister."Karen's face drained of blood, her eyes wide and her lips parting with shock. Valerie continued, "The young lady who took care of Nathaniel Scott."Dread coursed through Karen, her mind shifting back to the night Nathaniel was killed. He'd been with a woman, and when Adam killed Mr. Scott, the woman witnessed it. Karen had to silence her.A small smile found its way to Valerie's lips as she studied the horrified look on Karen's face. "So now, does it finally ring a bell?"Karen's eyes stung with tears
Ex-husband wants my New Body Chapter 162: Good deal?
**Third person**Valerie woke up to a wet sensation on her clit. A shiver coursed through her spine, her nipples hardening.The sensation continued, and she was forced to open her eyes. She wiped her heavy eyes with the back of her palm and then looked down between her legs, where the source of the heat she was feeling came from. Lucas, with his head between her thighs, looked up, his tongue still whipping her sensitive clit. “Morning, babe,” he murmured. Valerie blinked a couple of times to clear her eyes. She arched her back and she cried out in pleasure when he slipped a finger inside her. “W-what are you doing?” She managed to ask between moans.He smiled and looked up at her again, with those dark, desire-filled eyes. Her cheeks flushed as she noticed her pussy juice rubbed all over his mouth and its surroundings. “I've always dreamed of waking you up like this,” she murmured, his voice rough.Lucas slipped another finger in her and began pumping, his tongue returning to her c
