Gosh!!! Addicted to my CEO Ex-Husband Chapter 32 - Please call and tell them to cancel the trip
Gabriel went to give some instructions to his new secretary, Gloria. Reaching there, he realized that he had left his phone on his desk and returned to pick it up since there were some contacts he had to give her. Knowing that Maeve was on a call, he opened the door gently to not distract her. “Yeah, you are right. I can’t wait for us to get married, but I still have to watch the scam. What if he tells my dad to refuse our plans to get married?” “Dylan, I chose you over him, and I’m wearing your ring when his is in the sewage. You are the only man I love.” Maeve was facing the French windows behind Gabriel’s desk, so her back was turned, and she did not see nor hear it when Gabriel entered. Hearing those words from her and knowing they were to Dylan, Gabriel felt his legs shaky, and he closed the door without picking up the phone like he had wanted to do before. He returned to reception and told the secretary, “I will send them to you later.” The secretary nodded her head, not kn
Gosh!!! Addicted to my CEO Ex-Husband Chapter 33 – The jet crashed.
“Please call and tell them to cancel the trip. Tell them you have to take care of me. Please Mom and Dad, I need you here with me.” Reginald and Cynthia were confused about their daughter’s behavior. They knew her to always be non-serious about the company, saying that Dylan would take care of it but for a few weeks, she has been serious. Now, she was sick, and as much as they wanted to be there for her, she was an adult so a doctor could be called to take care of her, and with her maid around, they could go on their business trip and come back. Whereas the desperation in her voice made Reginald and Cynthia helpless but indeed, their daughter’s life mattered more to them than any money in the world and Maeve had paled so much suddenly, it scared them. Reginald tried calling his counterparts to tell them about the change of plans but the call was not going through, which could mean they had already reached the airport and were waiting in the private jet. Not only were Reginald and
Gosh!!! Addicted to my CEO Ex-Husband Chapter 34 – She hates Dylan with her soul
Gabriel’s detective instinct was already up because Reginald and his wife, who were Maeve’s parents, were supposed to be on that jet. Suddenly, he felt that Maeve was not sick and was also feeling that there was more to all the suggestions she kept giving him. “No, but we lost the pilot and an expensive painting. I told Vincent to drive to the airport to stop them when I could not reach them by phone but I guess he didn’t go. Luckily, I copied them in the email I sent to the investors to cancel the meeting so they alighted from the jet and instructed the pilot to take the painting.” Gabriel knew that if it had something to do with Vincent, then Dylan was involved but since he did not have all the proof yet, he said seriously, “he should be arrested.” Gabriel was determined to get to the bottom of this plane crash. “Hannah said he ran out of the house as soon as she told him that I wanted to see him. Maeve was also not sick. It was as if she knew this was going to happen,” Reginald
Gosh!!! Addicted to my CEO Ex-Husband Chapter 35 - I love only you.
Gabriel froze, as regret filled his eyes. He could not say that she was lying because she was drunk. No person would tell lies when drunk and he was sure that Maeve would not remember anything when she woke up the next morning. She looked depressed and heartbroken so if it wasn’t because of Dylan and Sandra, then who? Also, she broke up with Gabriel because of Dylan so what changed? And why was she still with Dylan and wearing his engagement ring if she hated him as much as she said? “Then why are you with him?” Gabriel asked her. Maeve was drowsy so she was about to lean against the bar counter when Gabriel pulled her towards him, so his head was resting against his chest. He was standing while she sat on the bar stool so that was the most comfortable position for her. “I just want to recover everything he stole and make him pay for messing with me. For messing with my head and making me think that he cared about me. For making me sign the divorce papers and embarrassing you." She

“Are you two together?” Doreen froze at the door when she saw their uncompromising position. Since Gabriel had not discussed with Maeve how she wanted the relationship to be, his only motive was to rebuke his sister when Maeve asked, “Can you keep a secret?” Her gaze was focused on Doreen, the latter smiled and nodded her head whiles she replied, “Better than anyone.” Maeve glanced at Gabriel and her cheeks burned before she looked at Doreen again and said, “Then yes. We only settled our differences today.” She disappointedly lifted herself from Gabriel’s lap but was engulfed in a warm hug from Doreen. Maeve hugged her back, her disappointment at not getting the kiss she so much desired fading away. Gabriel was shocked and asked Doreen, “You are not upset?” “Why should I be? This is what I’ve always wanted for the two of you, nothing less,” Doreen responded while hugging Maeve tighter. When she pulled away, Maeve went back to her desk while Doreen sat in front of Gabriel. Gabr
Gosh!!! Addicted to my CEO Ex-Husband Chapter 37 – Business & Pleasure
Maeve was about to move to her desk when Gabriel’s hands tightened around her waist. He enjoyed the closeness and did not want to stop. Lifting the intercom, he dialed the reception, the secretary answered, “Mr. Scott, I’m sorry I forgot about the intercom. I have a lot of transfer request confirmation from the branches, needing your approval.” Gabriel was both excited and stunned. This was not something he could postpone because it involved a lot of money. He couldn’t believe he was having both the happiness of his love together with massive business progress. Whatever good luck Maeve carried with her, Gabriel was happy that she settled for him, returning the love he kept in his heart for so long. “Right, give me a moment.” Gabriel hung up and took Maeve’s lips once more. Gosh! It was so addictive; he did not want to stop. Whereas with business waiting, office romance needed to be forcefully pushed to the back. His voice was so soft and filled with desire whiles he said, “Now t
Gosh!!! Addicted to my CEO Ex-Husband Chapter 38 – Gabriel's wonder woman
Maeve was woken up by the ringing of her phone. She was so tired, responding without checking the caller ID. “Hello,” “Good morning, wonder woman.” The velvety sensual voice was able to remove all the tiredness she felt, as energy returned to her body. But she was surprised by the pet name he gave her, instantly forming one for him through smiles, “Good morning, my addiction.” “Wow. Am I so addictive?” Gabriel was knocked with surprise but also proud to be nicknamed like that by her. No wonder she never wanted to leave his side. She was his wonder woman because of her contribution to his successes, which was still surprising to him. “You have no idea,” Maeve chuckled in response while she lay on her back, facing the chandelier above her. This was the first time Gabriel woke her from sleep and it felt so good. “I like it and I thought about asking why you are not here when I’m still at your car park.” Gabriel sounded amused but Maeve felt sorry for keeping him waiting for so l

“You mean she had sex with her ex as a goodbye gift?” Gabriel was shocked and asked, shocked by how ruthless Tyra could be. He never met her in person and was glad to have not to. Ethan smiled bitterly and nodded his head in agreement. “That is how she termed it, Gabby, how can I stay married to a woman like that?” He pursed his lips thoughtfully and asked, “Can I have whiskey?” “I don’t keep strong drinks here because it’s an office but it has already happened so put yourself together,” Gabriel patted him on the back while leading him to the sofa in his office and sitting beside him. Ethan recounted miserably, while scratching his head frustratedly, “I don’t even know how I got here. I just mentioned your address to the driver who picked me up at the airport and before I realized, I was here.” Gabriel was devastated by what his best friend was going through. “I think you need rest. I will book hotel accommodation for you.” Ethan was shocked and frowned imperceptibly, “Can’t I cr

Gosh!!! Addicted to my CEO Ex-Husband EPILOGUE
SIX YEARS LATER. Dad, can you please drive faster?" Gerald exclaimed, his voice brimming with excitement. Earlier that morning, he had made a serious request for both of his parents to pick him up from school, just like his twin friends' parents did occasionally. Gerald, being a transfer student to this school, felt an instant connection with the twins due to their identical and adorable appearance. He couldn't help but talk about them every time he came home from school.Maeve and Gabriel had no reason to decline his innocent request, so they decided to leave work early and personally pick him up instead of sending the driver. Gerald had never needed a nanny because there were always plenty of people, like Cynthia and Precious, who were more than willing to help take care of him.However, Maeve couldn't help but feel concerned about Gerald's love for speed and decided to caution him seriously, saying, "You guys need to be careful with your speed." Gerald couldn't help but laugh
Gosh!!! Addicted to my CEO Ex-Husband Chapter 108 – You deserve every bit of my love, my wonder woman
Upon hearing the news, both Cynthia and Precious, Gabriel's mother, began visiting the hospital daily, bringing nutritious food for Maeve. The overwhelming emotions consumed them both."This is incredibly beneficial for the early stages of pregnancy," Precious exclaimed with excitement. Despite the 40% chance Gabriel had mentioned, she refused to lose hope, believing that as long as there was a possibility, success would eventually come.Cynthia chimed in, "This would also make a great lunch option." Previously fearful for Maeve's well-being, her husband's encouragement had bolstered her hope."I think we should take turns caring for her," Precious suggested, realizing they had brought an excess of food for both Maeve and Gabriel. It would be necessary to return some.Cynthia agreed, "That's not a bad idea. However, even on my off days, I will still visit her. I don't mind leaving the company affairs to my husband so I can dedicate ample time to Maeve." “Same here," Precious chimed
Gosh!!! Addicted to my CEO Ex-Husband Chapter 107 – Pleased to call you, my brother.
Maeve was taken aback, as she had already lost hope, while Gabriel felt as though he and his wife were being ridiculed. If this was a joke, it was too cruel for him to bear."Doctor, what kind of sick joke is this? Didn't you say her womb was damaged?" Gabriel couldn't fathom the possibility of hope, as he had already made up his mind about adoption. The doctor, sensing their concern and confusion, smiled understandingly and proceeded to explain in detail."Yes, her womb is damaged, but because she is already pregnant, we would have to wait and deliver the child through a C-section and remove the womb at the same time," the doctor clarified. However, the furrowed brows and bewildered expressions directed at her prompted her to provide a more thorough explanation."Please don't misunderstand. This will be a high-risk pregnancy, so it's entirely up to you whether you want to proceed with it." With the confirmation of his wife's pregnancy, Gabriel felt a surge of happiness, but he als
Gosh!!! Addicted to my CEO Ex-Husband Chapter 106 - She's two weeks pregnant!
The only thing on Maeve's mind was her infertility issue. She began to wonder if Sandra was also involved in it.Before her death, Dylan confessed that he had given Maeve something to induce her labor pains. However, Sandra never confessed to any involvement from her side.Maeve believed that Sandra was just talking nonsense or seeking attention, so she replied, "You know nothing about my fertility."Sandra laughed and said, "Now it's my turn to laugh. Did you really think I would let you get pregnant for Dylan? Every time I gave you drinks, I added something to destroy your chances."Dylan was shocked and yelled, "Sandra! Why didn't you tell me about this?" It seemed that Sandra kept this information from him, probably because she knew he wouldn't agree to it. Gabriel, on the other hand, was so furious that he was speechless.Maeve shook her head, wondering when the situation had changed without her knowledge. She realized that she would never have discovered the truth if the tria

A few hours earlier, Dylan found himself being escorted by a police officer, his questions unanswered.He had been transferred from the FBI to the police, as they believed they were better equipped to handle his case."Where are you taking us?" Dylan inquired, his voice filled with confusion and concern.The police officer responded,"Today is your first hearing. Your lawyer should have informed you by now."Dylan fell silent, realizing that his lawyer had abandoned him, fearful of going up against Gabriel, especially considering Dylan's tarnished reputation.Dylan had little faith in the state attorney that would be assigned to his case.He had attempted to find other lawyers, but none were willing to face Gabriel's formidable legal representation. The man had never lost a case.Separated from Sandra, Dylan had not seen or spoken to her in days.He felt a deep regret for not being more cautious with their financial endeavors, but his resentment towards Gabriel only intensified.Dylan
Gosh!!! Addicted to my CEO Ex-Husband Chapter 104 - Oh Gab, what would I have done without you?
“What do you plan to do?” Maeve asked seriously.She knew that Gabriel was powerful, smart, and a fighter but was also unaware of his dark side, except for the incident with Dylan when she played a prank on him to teach him a lesson.Maeve still didn't know how Gabriel had gotten Dylan into that state.Gabriel's expression darkened, but Maeve knew it wasn't directed at her as he said,"An eye for an eye. They have to die miserably, unless they can confess everything and receive the maximum jail term."Maeve agreed with the plan but was clueless about the details."So, what do you plan to do?"Gabriel's gaze softened as it focused on her."You are my wife. Let me take care of you, and from today, you don't have to worry about anything. You won't shed another tear, and you won't have to worry about anything."“I, your husband, promise to take care of it and provide you with the results for your judgment," he assured her.Maeve smiled and embraced him tightly, tears welling up in the cor
Gosh!!! Addicted to my CEO Ex-Husband Chapter 103 – Maeve was afraid.
Gabriel remained calm when he realized that it wasn't what he initially thought. If Maeve had died, she wouldn't be right there beside him.Maeve, on the other hand, felt as though he didn't believe her.This made it easier for her to find the right words to replace the ones that had accidentally slipped from her lips.However, she had a feeling that if she could explain it differently, he wouldn't know that she had lived two lives.No one would believe such a thing, not even herself if she hadn't experienced it.Gabriel's patience was extraordinary, but it was understandable since he didn't have work or anything else to distract him.He had time for her."It was a dream. A nightmare, but everything happened just as I saw it," Maeve said wisely, and Gabriel relaxed."Tell me about this nightmare," he said in a soft tone, calming her nerves.Maeve didn't know how, but after saying it was a nightmare before recounting the story, she didn't feel any hindrance like she usually did when tr
Gosh!!! Addicted to my CEO Ex-Husband Chapter 102 - Died? Tell me how?”
“Are you sure you have the energy, my Wonder Woman?" Gabriel's deep and sensual voice sounded behind her as he wrapped his arms around her waist.His hot, minty breath fanned her ears, his palms caressing her through the dress she wore.Maeve moaned. Gabriel's touch felt like a sensual fire, igniting her arousal and making her crave him every time."Arrrrrrh, I believe we have everything, including the medical team, on this yacht."Her response conveyed that she didn't care if she passed out from their lovemaking. She just wanted him and had no desire for food.Moved by her words, Gabriel turned her to face him. When he and Reginald tricked her into signing those papers before, he was willing to do anything to make her fall in love with him, but she never gave him a chance.Now that he had her all to himself, how could he resist her request and not be flattered by the fact that she loved him so much and wanted him more than food?"You are indeed ready. Tell me what you want, and I wil

"Maeve, I don't know whether to be ashamed or not, but the truth is, I fell in love with you from the first time I saw you, but you were underage."Maeve was shocked but also happy. However, she couldn't help feeling guilty for only seeing him as a family friend for all those years."I knew it was wrong to love an underage girl, and you were the same age as Doreen, so I felt like I had to see you as a sister. But I couldn't. Nevertheless, I also couldn't tell you or your father, so I decided to be your best friend."Maeve felt sorrowful. If only he had told her."Gab, maybe you should have told me when I turned eighteen. I hadn't met Dylan by then, and I would have started to consider the possibility because I liked you a lot, more than anyone else.""It was just that the asshole came confessing his love for me, and I fell for it. I guess I just wanted to be loved since most guys were afraid of me because of Dad," Maeve said thoughtfully, and Gabriel agreed."I know. That's why I nev
