Goodbye, Ex-Husband, Next Please CHAPTER 079
LAURA'S POV Jason’s words echoed in my head, each word felt like sharp blades cutting through me. For a second, I thought I’d heard him wrong. But no, the truth was painfully clear. He had just announced his marriage to Ava in front of the entire company. My hands gripped the edge of the table so hard that my knuckles turned white but I forced my face to remain calm, even though anger was building up inside me like a storm. How could he do this to me? Humiliate me like this? Everyone in the company thought I was his secret wife. Now, what would they think of me? A mistress? A desperate woman chasing another woman's husband? My jaw tightened, and my nails dug into the table. The dining area buzzed with whispers and shocked murmurs, but all I could hear was the pounding of my heart.After refusing to touch me last night and even calling Ava's name while drunk, as if that wasn't enough he had to do this to me. Jason stood there, calm and collected like he hadn’t just shattered m

AVA'S POV The moment Laura walked out of the dining area, the room grew quiet, but the silence didn’t last long. Everyone’s attention turned to me. I could feel their eyes on me some envious, some whispering to the person beside them. "So Ava is the CEO's wife? OMG! That's so shocking. She's so lucky," a colleague whispered to the next person sitting beside her. I'm not sure how I even heard that since they were whispering but somehow I did. It's one of those strange things about me being able to hear whispers that no one else can. But no, she was wrong. I wasn't lucky at all. I thought I was but the past few months have made me realize I wasn't. Their stares felt heavier than ever, making me want to shrink into my chair. Jason's eyes met mine for a brief moment but I quickly looked away. Wait... was this what he meant by proving he loves me? Announcing our marriage now? It was too late. His words didn’t mean anything to me anymore. Nothing he did could change my mind.

AVA’S POV I ignored him and walked past him with steady steps. Sally stayed right beside me. I could feel his eyes on my back, heavy and intense, but I refused to turn around. A few months ago, I would have hesitated, unsure of how to act around him, afraid of upsetting him. But not anymore. I had accepted things as they were. Jason could stare all he wanted, but I wasn’t going to react the way he expected. As we reached the volleyball area, the sound of laughter and cheering filled the air. The golden sand was warm beneath my feet, and for a moment, the lively atmosphere made me feel lighter. “Ava.” I looked up to see Alex approaching with a relaxed expression and a smile etched on his face. “How are you feeling?” he asked, his voice warm with concern. “Are you okay now?” I tilted my head slightly, surprised by his question. I didn’t remember telling him anything was wrong with me. But then I recalled – at the cocktail party, he had noticed how tense I was, and I had

JASON'S POV I stood there, frozen, my hands clenched into fists at my sides. I couldn’t believe what had just happened. Ava my wife had yelled at me in front of everyone – in front of my employees. Not just yelled at me, but looked at me like I was nothing like I had done something unforgivable. And all because of Alex Grey. I could still see it so clearly. The way she rushed to his side, the way she touched him, the way she helped him up like he was the only one that mattered. And worst of all she didn’t even look back at me. How could she tend to another man that way in my presence? I had just revealed to everyone that she was my wife and she does this in front of the same people I just told about our marriage. Lines creased my forehead as anger boiled beneath my skin. The whispers around me were getting louder, but I couldn’t make out the words. I didn’t need to. I knew what they were saying. I gritted my teeth, my jaw tightening. I wanted to shut them all up, to make the

AVA'S POV I walked back to the beach with Alex and Sally after helping Alex with his injury. My heart still felt heavy from what had happened earlier. I knew Jason had deliberately hit the ball so hard towards Alex to hurt him, and I had a feeling it was because of me. That's why I felt responsible for making sure he got treated. But now, as I glanced at Alex beside me, I could see he was still in pain, even though he tried to act fine. “You really should be in bed resting,” I said, frowning at him. “I told you to stay back.” Alex chuckled lightly, shaking his head. “And miss all the fun? Nahhh...I’ll be fine, Ava.” I sighed, knowing there was no point in arguing. He was stubborn, just like Jason. But at least Alex listened sometimes. Jason… Jason only does what he wants, without listening to anyone. The crowd on the beach was still gathered around, some playing, some talking while others were relaxing and enjoying the cool ocean breeze. Alex excused himself and went to joi

ALEX'S POV I didn't think. I didn't hesitate. The moment I saw Ava collapse I ran, ignoring the pain still aching from the impact of the ball Jason threw at me. She lay motionless on the ground and my heart stopped. She was pregnant...I knew she was pregnant. And now, with everything that had just happened, I couldn’t stop the fear that gripped me. I was scared for her. I was scared for the baby. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw Jason. He had walked right past Ava, leaving her on the ground like she didn’t matter with Laura in his arms. Who does that? Ava was his wife – his wife! And yet, he left her lying there like she was nothing. My jaw clenched. How could he see her on the ground like this and still choose Laura? I couldn’t make sense of it. Ava had told me Jason didn’t know about the baby. But even so, it didn’t explain why he’d left his wife behind, lying on the sand, and rushed to tend to Laura. Even now I wouldn't be surprised if Laura was pretending to be

AVA'S POVI felt a dull throbbing ache in my head as I slowly opened my eyes. My body felt heavy as if I had been asleep for days. The bright lights stung my vision, making me blink a few times before my surroundings became clear – I was at the hospital. The first thing I saw was Alex. He was sitting beside my bed, his elbows resting on his knees, his hands folded together. His face was tense, his eyes dark with worry. He looked like he hadn’t moved for hours. My throat felt dry, and I swallowed hard before speaking. “Alex…” My voice was weak, barely above a whisper. His head snapped up the moment he heard me. He let out a deep breath of relief and his shoulders fell as he leaned closer. “Ava… You’re awake,” he said, his voice filled with emotion. I tried to sit up, but a sharp pain shot through my stomach, making me wince. “Careful,” Alex said, reaching out to help me. “Don’t push yourself too much.” Before I could say anything else, the door burst open, and Sally came in

AVA'S POV Jason’s words rang in my ears. My breath caught in my throat, and my fingers tightened around the phone, while the other hand dug deep into the hospital sheets. Owe Laura an apology? For what? I lost my baby. My child was gone forever. And he had the audacity to call me and demand that I apologize to Laura? “Laura almost lost her child because of you, Ava,” he continued, both his voice and his words piercing my soul. “You should do the right thing and apologize to her.” Laura almost lost her child. Almost. But I lost mine. I lost my baby. Why should I be the one to apologize when I did nothing to her? She was the one who bumped into me on the volleyball court and fell. I didn’t touch her, I didn’t push her. I was the one the ball hit hard on the belly, not her. So why should I apologize? And somehow, she was at fault. If she had stuck to her position on the court, maybe all of this could have been avoided. But I didn’t blame her because I knew it was an accid

JASON’S POV The words hit me like a brick to the chest. Ava lost her child because of me? I couldn’t move. I couldn’t breathe. My whole body went cold, my mind blank. Ava was pregnant. She was pregnant with our child… and I didn’t know. I stood there, frozen, staring at Alex, then at Ava. My heart pounded so hard it hurt. This couldn’t be real. Maybe I was dreaming. Maybe this was some kind of twisted nightmare. But it wasn’t. I looked at Ava, waiting for her to deny it. Waiting for her to tell me Alex was lying, that this was some kind of sick joke. But she didn’t. She just sat there, her face pale, her eyes filled with so much pain that it crushed me. Her cheeks streaked with tears, her lips pressed together as if she was holding back a sob. My stomach twisted. I felt sick. “Ava…” My voice came out hoarse, barely above a whisper. “Is it true?” Ava didn’t answer right away. She just inhaled shakily, her arms tightening around herself like she was trying to hold
Goodbye, Ex-Husband, Next Please CHAPTER 095
ALEX'S POV Jason’s words made my blood boil. I had been standing there, trying to stay calm, trying to hold myself back, but the way he was blaming Ava like she was the villain in all this was too much. Laura was the one who had started this. Laura was the one who grabbed Ava first, who pushed and poked until she got the reaction she wanted. But Jason couldn’t see that. He was too blind, too caught up in whatever web of lies Laura had spun around him. And now, after everything Ava had been through, he was here, pointing fingers at her. I clenched my fists tightly my fingers digging deep into my palm. How could he not see it? How could he not realize what was happening? Laura played the victim so well. She cried she acted helpless, and Jason fell for it every time. Meanwhile, Ava...who had already lost so much was standing here, trying to hold herself together while Jason tore her down. It made me sick. It made me furious. I just couldn't stand it anymore. Jason was
Goodbye, Ex-Husband, Next Please CHAPTER 094
JASON'S POV I stormed down the hallway, my blood boiling. I couldn’t believe what just happened. Couldn’t believe that Ava had pulled Laura into the pool with her. Laura was pregnant. Pregnant. And Ava still had the heart to do such. I shoved the guest room door open without knocking. Ava was sitting on the bed, wrapped in a towel, her wet hair sticking to her face. Alex stood near her, his arms crossed like he was ready to play hero again. Kevin had dragged Sally out the second I walked in. “What the hell is wrong with you, Ava?” My voice came out sharp, cutting through the tense air. “Laura is pregnant, and you still had to drag her into your mess?” Ava lifted her head slowly, her expression one of surprise. Then, she let out a cold laugh. “My mess?” “Yes, your mess!” I snapped. “You couldn’t just walk away, could you? You had to make a scene like you always do.” Her eyes darkened. “You weren’t there, Jason. You didn’t hear what she said to me.” “I don’t care wha
Goodbye, Ex-Husband, Next Please CHAPTER 093
AVA'S POVThe moment my body hit the water, everything became a blur. Cold. That was the first thing I felt. The shock of it stole the breath from my lungs, and for a second, I couldn’t move. My dress became heavy, dragging me down, and my arms flailed as I fought to stay afloat. I could hear muffled shouting above me, but the water swallowed the sound, making everything feel distant. Then strong arms wrapped around me. I was being pulled upward, my head breaking the surface. I gasped, sucking in the air like I had been drowning for hours. Water dripped from my hair into my eyes, blurring my vision, but I didn’t need to see to know who had saved me. “Got you,” Alex’s voice was close, his grip firm as he pulled me toward the edge of the pool. At the same time, I heard another splash. Through my dazed state, I realized Jason had jumped in, too. But he wasn’t reaching for me. He was pulling Laura out. Of course. Alex lifted me effortlessly, guiding me to the pool’s ed
Goodbye, Ex-Husband, Next Please CHAPTER 092
AVA'S POV My whole body froze, my fingers clenched so tight around my drink that I thought the glass might shatter. I had told myself I was prepared to see them again someday. But not tonight. Not when Kevin had promised me they wouldn’t be here. Sally noticed them at the same time I did. “What the..." she started, her voice rising in anger. She turned to me, her eyes flashing. “Ava, I swear, I will drag that woman out of here myself.” She was already moving, ready to storm toward Laura, but I caught her arm. “Sally, no,” I said, my voice low but firm. She snapped her head toward me. “Ava, don’t do this. You know I won’t let her stay here. She has no right to be here when she wasn't even invited by Kevin." I swallowed, my throat dry as sandpaper. My whole body was shaking with rage, but I tightened my grip on Sally’s arm. “You promised me,” I reminded her, my voice barely above a whisper. Sally’s jaw clenched, and for a moment, she looked like she might ignore me. B

AVA'S POV Kevin’s birthday party felt like the last place I should be. I didn’t want to go. I sat on the edge of the bed, staring at the floor, my hands gripping the fabric of my dress. My stomach twisted, a sick feeling rising inside me. The thought of being around people, smiling, pretending everything was fine it felt impossible. Because everything was not fine. I had lost my baby. And I knew who took it from me. Laura. I squeezed my eyes shut, trying to push the image of her away, but I couldn’t. Her smirk, her mocking voice, the way she looked at me like she had won… it haunted me every night. She knew what she had done, and she was proud of it. I had told Sally everything. Every single thing after I came back from Jason’s house that day in tears. “She killed my baby,” I whispered, breaking down in her arms. Sally had been furious. She wanted to go after Laura, to tear her apart. But I grabbed her wrist, shaking my head. “No, Sally,” I said firmly, wiping my tears with
Goodbye, Ex-Husband, Next Please CHAPTER 090
LAURA'S POV I watched the door slam shut behind Ava. The moment she was gone, a slow smile spread across my face. She looked completely broken when she left. She came in thinking she could just take her stupid documents and go, but no. She walked out with something heavy crushing her heart. And I was the one who put it there. I could still see her face in my mind, so pale, so shocked, like she was about to fall. Her hands were shaking, her voice was weak, and she was crying like a baby. Good. That was what she deserved. I had waited too long for this moment. I had spent too much time watching her act as if she belonged in my world like she had a right to be with Jason. She took a lot from me… she took Jason, my position at the company, the life I was supposed to live. But now? I took something from her. Something she could never get back. Her baby. And the best part? She knew I did it. She knew, but she could do nothing about it. Why? Because there was no evidence. It was
Goodbye, Ex-Husband, Next Please CHAPTER 089
AVA’S POV I felt all the blood drain from my body and I felt like jelly as my bones weakened. The room tilted, and it felt like the ground beneath me was being ripped away. My chest tightened, and my breath caught in my throat. What was she saying? She made me lose my child to teach me a lesson? Who does that? I had left Jason for her... I had even served him divorce papers which she somehow knew of so why then did she have to kill my baby? Why...my baby? Tears stung in my eyes threatening to spill. "You…” I couldn’t finish the sentence. I couldn’t even form the words. It felt like a large lump had stuck to my throat making it impossible for me to speak. “Oh yes,” Laura continued, her voice getting colder. “I made sure that ball hit your stomach." She took a step closer, her smile widening with every word. “You should’ve known better than to get in my way.” "So that was the consequence of your action...your baby had to pay the price for you. I am kind-hearted am I not? A
Goodbye, Ex-Husband, Next Please CHAPTER 088
AVA’S POVIt had been days since I walked out of Jason’s office. Now, I stood outside his house, staring at the door, my stomach twisting into knots. I shouldn't be here, I know. I didn’t even want to be here. I had sworn never to come back.But I had no choice.When I packed my things after finding out Jason could walk and was pretending, I was pissed and left in such a hurry that I forgot to take along some important documents – designs I had worked on for weeks.They weren’t just replaceable papers so I couldn't abandon them. I needed them. That was the only reason I was standing here, forcing myself to take a deep breath and ring the doorbell.Still, I hesitated.Going back inside felt like reopening a wound that hadn’t even started to heal. The memories of Jason, of everything we had, of everything I lost they were all waiting for me behind that door.I would have asked Sally to help me get the documents instead of coming myself but only I knew where exactly they were. I had hid
