I'm in love with my Billionaire Ex-wife Chapter 97
Chapter 97 After the Storm The cabin was peaceful, nestled in a forest, free from the vibrations of the town, and the constant roar of Antonio’s Group. Quietness welcomed her like the much needed comfort after the storm of the previous few months.The board vote was two days ago, two days ago when she fought Richard and Vega, the media hurricane that almost engulfed her. The vote had been in her favor; Antonio’s Group was secure for now, but victory was not what she had expected it to be. She had done it for her family, and has lost so much in the process!Richard had betrayed her and it still felt fresh like an open sore but it was deeper than that. It was the tiredness, the struggle, the burden that was thrown upon her. She had won the war but now she wondered where to turn; she was all wet and did not know where to go. So she had taken time for herself – a break, a withdrawal in order to gain some perspective.It had been in her family for generations, it was her father’s san

Chapter 98 Charles Returns The glass doors of Antonio’s Group opened and Ximena had the exact second to draw a breath before being assaulted by the sounds of glasses clinking and happy voices. Her vacation to take a break had been over. It was time to return to work.She stopped, opening her eyes wide in shock as all the employees who had been dispersed throughout the lobby, lifted their glasses of wine and cheered. Their glasses hit the table in unison, and then cheers erupted all at once, congratulating her.“Well done, Ximena!” some shouted as they looked at her with joy and admiration on their faces. The pressure of the past weeks appeared to be shed off momentarily by the support that they were receiving.The vote on the board had been in her favor. They were safe, at least for now and the feeling of getting out of a fix that was starting to dawn on Antonio.Ximena smiled, she felt happy and even thanked them for their help. “Thank you, everyone,” she said, her voice confiden

Chapter 99Ximena was still trying to comprehend what Charles had said with her throat feeling constricted. Vega was busy with their schemes, behind the scenes, unknown to Ximena, planning the attack on Antonio’s Group. The win from the board vote seemed like it was in another life now, and fear was slowly creeping into her system. “How did you get to know all this?” Ximena asked, her voice sounded harsher than she wanted it to be. She needed answers. She needed the truth.Charles looked at her but he was momentarily lost for words, his eyes shifted away from her line of sight. He looked confused, and it only made her even more angry. “Charles,” she repeated softly, approaching him, her pulse quickening. "I’m talking about having to know everything if one wants to protect the company. You know you can’t pull me into a conversation like that and then start withholding information.”He took a deep breath and raked his fingers through his hair, frowning a little. “I have… sources.”

Chapter 100Miguel drove through the city, his mind consumed with thoughts of Ximena and all that had happened over the last couple of weeks.The tension between them still lingered in the air, and while things finally seemed to go in the right direction, something just felt off. Charles's sudden appearance still kept gnawing at him. Ximena hadn't told him much about it, and to think that she was going to confide in Charles before him didn't sit right.He clutched the steering wheel and fought traffic that evening, setting a course for Ximena's apartment straightaway.He wasn't going to wait anymore. Whatever it was she wasn't telling him, he needed to know.Reaching her building, Miguel parked and went up to her apartment, feeling both anticipation and a knot in his stomach.He wanted answers, but he was also seeking assurances that whatever was brewing with Vega wasn't about to blow up in their faces. Ximena had mentioned a new legal threat, and the not-knowing was keeping him on

Chapter 101Torn Between Two WorldsXimena just couldn't get her head to focus. Business strategies and mixed unresolved feelings seemed to swirl in her head.The bomb that Charles laid on her about Vega's surreptitious legal maneuverings shook her, though not just the threat to Antonio's Group that left her feeling all on the edge.It was Charles himself. He had been drilling his way back into her life, and with each call, every sustained glance, the pull had grown stronger.She let out a sigh, staring at her reflection in the office bathroom mirror, racing heartbeats, clammy palms as she pulled herself together.She had, in a few hours, to meet with the legal team and figure out how they were going to handle this newest wave of lawsuits Vega had filed against them. The stakes were higher than ever, and she needed to stay focused. But how could she when Charles clouded her mind?Miguel, too, had grown distant. It wasn't intentional to either of them but they both felt it.She had kn

Chapter 102Miguel could tell by the denseness of air the moment he stepped into the conference room. The legal team had already assembled;papers and files scattered along the length of the table but neither were these where his attention was directed. His eyes went straight to Ximena, seated at the head of the table, distant with her gaze into a stack of documents.She hadn't been acting like herself lately; she was physically there, yet felt like her mind was a thousand miles away. He'd been noticing this often over the past few weeks; how distant she kept herself, the way she dodged his questions when things became personal. Then there was Charles.Miguel hated to admit it, but something was off. He wasn't sure whether his jealousy was talking or whether Ximena was actually slipping away from him. Having Charles back into the picture didn't help matters either. "Let's get started," Ximena said, her voice dragging Miguel from his thoughts. She didn't look up from the papers in

Chapter 103 Collided FeelingsAnticipation hummed in his veins as Charles stepped into O'Malley's. This time, he had promised to meet Ximena here and was determined this time to push the conversation past the usual business topics. For far too long, she had been drawing away from him, hesitating at every step despite the undeniable connection still there.Tonight, he wouldn't let her hide behind her work at Antonio's Group.Tonight, he would make her face the reality that was them.He found her in an instant seated in their booth, her fingers wrapped around a glass of wine.She was beautiful, but tonight something was off about how she looked.Her body tense, her stare not quite focused, like a war was going on inside of her."Hey," Charles said, sliding onto the seat opposite hers, his tone casual but his heart racing.Ximena looked up at him, tugging a small smile onto her lips, but it didn't quite reach her eyes. "Hey."A moment ticked by in silence. He could feel that she was o

Chapter 104Charles didn't flinch; he never said a word. He did absolutely nothing but stared deep into her eyes, knowing full well whatever she did next would change it all.Miguel fought to breathe as he stormed out of O'Malley's. His heart racing in his ears, his mind reeled from all he had just seen and heard.His instincts told him his companionship with Ximena had gone all wrong, but seeing her with Charles like that made everything so real in such a painful way. Outside, the cold did nothing to calm the fire burning inside. He clenched his fists and kept down the street, trying to get as much distance as possible from that damned bar.He wasn't sure what was worse, either the fact that she hadn't told him about seeing Charles or the way that she'd looked at him, like there still was something between them.Miguel stopped abruptly as his chest heaved with frustration. He wanted to hit something, anything; just that wasn't going to solve anything. He needed to think. He needed

Chapter 165: The Final ReckoningThe night was unusually still, the quiet broken only by the occasional distant car passing by. Ximena had fallen into a light sleep, her body exhausted from the strain of the past few days. But the sudden sound of a floorboard creaking in her apartment jolted her awake.Her heartbeat made a sudden jump to her throat and she glanced toward the living room. The darkness caused by the streetlights outside only appeared to make things even more quiet.The man standing in the doorway leading into the living room was plain to see.Tania.She was standing there, gripping the gun firmly, her eyes were wide open and looked like they had gone mad. Ximena looked paralyzed with a cold feeling running around her body.“Well, well, here we are meeting in person,” Tania spat out her words and was clearly angry. “I knew this would be the moment every time. You never thought that I could do them, did you?”Ximena’s heart beat faster, but she did not allow her tone to

Chapter 164: A Dangerous EncounterMiguel’s fists connected with the first thug’s jaw with a sickening thud, sending the man stumbling back, his head snapping to the side. Ximena watched from her car, her breath caught in her throat. The sound of the scuffle was echoing down the alley, but she couldn't hear anything except for the pure power and perfection in Miguel's movements.He moved like a force of nature: his muscular frame twisting and turning, his every strike landing with purpose. The men surrounding him tried to overpower him, but Miguel was relentless, fury behind each punch.The night air crackled with energy, and Ximena felt a weird mix of terror and awe. She'd never seen this side of him before, yet it didn't faze her.It was the man she'd married once; the man who would go to any length to protect what he loved.In one leap, one of the thugs pounced on him with a crowbar. However, Miguel was quicker, dodging and managing to sweep a leg to drop him to the ground. In o

Chapter 163: The Return of TaniaShe stared at the photo in her hand, her heart racing wildly. How had they gotten this photo? Who watched her? She felt her stomach clench as the creeping feeling of vulnerability clawed at her.Miguel had been supportive, but even his presence could not erase the gnawing anxiety that had settled deep inside her. She could still feel the weight of his comforting words from earlier, but they did little to quell the storm brewing in her mind.Tania had kept silent for too long, and now it was as if the calm had been no more than the quiet before the storm.Miguel had insisted on staying the night, refusing to let Ximena face this alone. Now, as they sat together in her living room, Miguel was talking about taking extra precautions for her safety, adding security to her apartment, increasing surveillance around the office, but Ximena wasn't fully listening.She had heard the same promises before, and while she appreciated them, she couldn’t help but fe

Chapter 162: Shadows ReturnThe next morning, Ximena was back to work, sitting at her desk, her hands fastened on the lid of the portable computer, her fingers drumming the wooden top of the laptop. He had seen her typing away again, probably trying to complete the quarterly reports so that the board meeting in the morning would not consume all the time. Her head was not in the numbers; she was constantly thinking about the peculiarities that had been bothering her all week.The first time she’d noticed it, she thought that perhaps she was imagining it. He had seen a black sedan parked across the street from her building for two consecutive days and the face of the driver was hidden behind the tinted glass. It could have been nothing, but then there were the phone calls; two in the last two days; both of which rang only twice before the line went dead as soon as she picked up.She tried to dismiss it as a mere fluke and went on to telling herself that there was really no need for

Chapter 161: A New NormalXimena sat down comfortably in her chair and looked at the numbers that target the company’s financial performance in the following quarter. The numbers, as he could see, were fine, were good, in fact, were more than good. The Group was on its way up again in Antonio’s life. Things were finally getting a little less insane, and Ximena was able to concentrate.This lack of drama seemed to them in some way wrong, even unnatural. Living on a daily edge, ready to face the next storm, she found the lack of tumult... dangerous. But was this not what she had wanted?Her phone was ringing on the desk and she had to remove herself from her line of thinking. A message from Clara lit up the screen: “Meeting at 11:30. Coffee on the way.”Ximena, still smiling, thanked her. “Thanks, lifesaver.”Clara was not wrong, after a year, the world seemed to have returned to its normal state.Miguel came to see her later in the morning that same day with a box of pastries and a

Chapter 160: Shadows Closing InMiguel paced back and forth, his frustration evident in the sharp clicks of his shoes against the polished floor. “She’s up to something. She always is. But I can’t risk dismissing this if it’s tied to Vega.”Ximena crossed her arms over her chest, easing back into her chair. "You're giving her too much credit. This is Tania we're talking about; a master manipulator. She wants you to believe she's our ally just so she can stay close."Miguel stopped pacing and faced her. "What if this time she's telling the truth?"What if she isn't?" Ximena shot back. "Every time we let her in, she leaves chaos in her wake."______________________________________Late that afternoon, Gregorio joined them in Ximena's office. His arrival brought much-needed clarity, though his face was as tense as theirs."I did some digging after Tania's sudden appearance," Gregorio began, placing a file on the desk. "And it seems she's not bluffing entirely."Ximena's eyes slitted a

Chapter 159: A Desperate MoveTania hesitated for a moment before turning on her heel and walking away, her laughter echoing in the empty street.Miguel turned to Ximena, his jaw tight. “Are you okay?”Ximena nodded, though her hands were still trembling. “Let’s just go.”…………………………………..Ximena was staring out the window of Miguel's car. Her reflection fluttered with the streetlights as they speed-crossed the city.Miguel has his hands clutched tight over the wheel. His knuckles were white. He glanced over to her and his jaw clenched. "You haven't said a word since we left. What is going on inside that head of yours?""What's the word of the day?" Ximena replied in a quiet tone. "That I don't want to play this any longer? That I'm tired of being a target?"Miguel let out a soft breath, his eyes remaining on the road. "You are not alone in this, you know that, right?"Ximena looked at him. "Do I? Because lately, it's feeling like I'm fighting for myself."Miguel was thinking of a come

Chapter 158: Countdown to ChaosSleep was out of the question. Ximena’s instincts told her this was more than another scare tactic.By the time the sun rose, she was already seated at her dining table with her laptop open and a steaming cup of coffee beside her. The clock ticked ominously as if counting down to an unseen disaster.Her phone buzzed, pulling her out of her thoughts. Miguel’s name lit up the screen.“Morning,” she said, trying to mask her exhaustion.“Did you sleep at all?” Miguel’s voice was tinged with concern.“Not really,” she admitted, rubbing her temples. “The message... I can’t stop thinking about it.”“Neither can I,” Miguel said. “But we have a plan, Ximena. We’re ahead of them.”“Are we?” Ximena asked, doubt creeping into her voice. “Or are we just reacting to whatever they throw at us?”Miguel caught himself and responded in a lower tone. "Meet me at Antonio's Group. Gregorio probably has more news for us."______________________________________The middle o

Chapter 157: Tightening the GripXimena sat at her desk, staring blankly at her calendar. She'd spent all morning moving meetings around, trying to make sense of a schedule that had begun to feel utterly meaningless under the mounting threats.A knock at the door pulled her from her thoughts. Clara peeked in, the shine gone now from her face since the events of the past couple of days."Miss Antonio, Gregorio is here," Clara said quietly.Ximena nodded, brushing a loose strand of hair behind her ear. “Send him in.”Gregorio entered, his ever-practical briefcase in hand. “Morning, Miss Antonio. Miguel should be joining us shortly. We’ve got some developments you’ll want to hear about.”Ximena gestured for him to sit. “Developments?”Before he could answer, Miguel strode into the room, his expression grim but focused.“Let’s hear it,” Miguel said, taking a seat beside Ximena.Gregorio opened his briefcase, pulled out a few files, and laid them across the desk. "We have located Vega's
