In Love With My Ex-Wife CHAPTER 17 - A Scene In Leo's Office
She quickly dismissed her thought. ‘No, it's impossible.’ Amelia had died a long time ago, lost in the vast and icy sea. How could she possibly be the person in charge of One Closet? It must be just a coincidence. After all, so many people have the surname Smith and it was ridiculous to suspect that anyone with the same surname and age was related to Amelia. With this in mind, Sophia took a deep breath and ordered, “Continue the investigation and find out everything about the lady in question.” “Yes ma'am.” After hanging up the phone she went to Leo's office. “Leo, are you done with your work?” Leo was sitting behind his desk dealing with official business. Without looking up he replied, “What's the matter?” Sophia pouted in dissatisfaction. “Didn't you promise to have lunch with me today? Have you forgotten?” Leo paused for a moment. He had indeed promised her. That night he had left without saying goodbye outside the Coffee Shop. When Sophia brought it up later, he had pr

Amelia was squatting on the ground, her small face pale with pain, and sweat beads on her forehead. When she saw them come in she weakly waved at them.“Hey! Are you done with the meeting?”Leo frowned and walked up to her, pulling her up.“What are you doing here? Didn't James tell you to wait outside?”It was only then that he saw the blood-stained pants on the ground.Amelia smiled apologetically, “Umm… Sorry about that, you have to send someone to clean the sofa but don't worry I'll pay for it. If you really can't stand it you can throw it away and buy a new one.”At this point, Leo understood what had happened. His brows suddenly relaxed and he turned to James.“Go buy a box of painkillers.”“Okay, sir.”After James left he looked at Amelia, “Can you walk?”Amelia nodded.Leo helped her sit on the sofa outside. Looking at her painful expression and reluctance to speak, he felt a little helpless for the first time. He wasn't an ignorant young man, during his three-year marriage w

Leo turned around and frowned when he saw the pants on the ground. He instructed James, “Take it and throw it away.”“Yes sir.”James stepped forward but was stopped by Sophia.“Don't throw it away,” she exclaimed.“This is a woman's pants. Leo, won't you explain it to me?”Leo looked at her coldly, “Explain what? Whether I'm hiding a woman in my office? If that's what you are asking then I can tell you for sure, no.”Sophia stood there looking at Leo's cold and heartless expression, feeling a chill in her heart.She had been with Leo for six years.During those years, she had done her best and never dared to make him angry or do anything out of line.She thought that this would earn her Leo's favor, but what was the result? As his girlfriend, she found this kind of thing in her boyfriend's office and she didn't even have the right to ask a single question.Sophia's eyes gradually turned red.Leo saw this and felt a twinge of annoyance.He was not a person who likes to explain but th

With a slight smile, Amelia extended her hand.“Hello, I'm the vice president of Wilson's Group and the head of the domestic branch. It's been a long time manager Jones.”The assistant next to her was a little surprised.“Miss Smith I didn't know you knew our manager.”Amelia smiled, “Of course not only did we know each other, but we were also the best of friends who were closer than sisters.”As she spoke she took Sophia's hand and felt the cold sweat in her palm.The assistant laughed, “In that case, I won't disturb you two. I'll go make some coffee for you.”“No need.”Sophia suddenly spoke up, her face was pale and her lips trembled slightly in fear.“You go out, close the door, and don't let anyone in without my permission.”The assistant was taken aback sensing that something was wrong with Sophia, but didn't dare to say anything.In the end, she obediently left.The door clicked shut.Amelia smiled and looked at her.“Sophia it's been six years since we last met and as an old f

The next day Amelia took her team to the client's house that had reported. She pulled out a fake ID and smiled, “Hello we are from the market supervision bureau, we would like to conduct another investigation concerning your complaint against Wilson's Group, is that okay?”The client was a middle-aged couple who hesitantly nodded upon seeing her work ID. “Oh, sure.”They let the group into their small two-bedroom apartment.Amelia asked Mark to chat with them while she wandered around the room. The couple seemed to have an average income, judging from the furnishing and decoration in the room. Next to the second bedroom was a small storage filled with clothes. Amelia walked over and was about to pick up a piece of clothing when the woman behind her stopped her.“Hey don't touch that.” She hurried over and stood in front of Amelia.“This is where I keep my clothes, it's messy in there and there is nothing worth seeing.”Amelia raised an eyebrow and smiled, “Don't worry I'm just taking

Lisa trembled as she stood up, “Manager Jones is feeling unwell today and has taken a leave of absence, sir.” “Hmph! How convenient. She never takes a day off but she chooses today to do so. Did she cause a mess and hide away leaving us to clean up after her?” Someone nearby tried to calm the situation. “Mr Reynold, please calm down. It's not like Manager Jones did it on purpose. Let's wait for her to come back and see what she has to say.” Someone else looked at Leo with glee, “Mr. Reynold Manager Jones is your fiancee she wouldn't have done this without your consent right?” Leo glared at him, “What are you trying to say, director White?” “I'm just making a reasonable guess,” he shrugged and smiled. “After all, you are the heir of the company. Who you use and what you do with them is not something a mere director like me can interfere with.” “But even if I don't interfere, this matter has caused such a big commotion. If it reaches the old man's ears, I'm afraid it won't

A black car drove in. Five black-clad bodyguards jumped out of the car and quickly surrounded them.Leo walked in front and when Cobra and the others saw him their faces changed immediately. Without hesitation, they pushed Amelia towards him and ran in the other direction.“Get them,” Leo shouted angrily.James immediately led the bodyguards to chase after them.Leo looked at Amelia who was in his arms and asked, “Are you okay?”Amelia was a little dazed.At that moment she thought she was going to die.She even thought about her funeral and the scene of meeting Henry in the afterlife.But unexpectedly Leo broke in at the critical moment like a god who had descended from the sky and saved her from the butcher knife.Her mood was a bit complicated for a while.Leo saw her dazed and couldn't help but wave his hand in front of her.“Amelia! Amelia!!”Amelia came back to her senses and quickly said, “I'm fine.”She tried to stand up but her legs suddenly went weak and she fell into Leo's

On the other end of the line, Cobra was very angry.“Damn it, we were about to succeed, but that guy named Leo Reynold somehow broke in. I don't know how he found our location, I was afraid he would recognize me so I immediately took my men and ran.”“Miss Jones the situation is urgent now you can't just ignore us.”Sophia was both shocked and angry.“Are you saying that not only did you not kill Amelia but you also let Leo see you?”“Unfortunately yes ma'am. I need some money I have to take my men and lay low for a while until this blows over, then I'll come back.”Sophia closed her eyes and took a deep breath. After a while, she managed to calm herself down. “Okay, I got it I'll send you the money.”After hanging up the phone she angrily swept everything off the table.“Useless, all of you are useless.”Sophia was so angry that she felt dizzy. She held her forehead for a while before regaining her senses. She picked up her phone and transferred some money to Cobra.Just as she was

Leo claimed her mouth in a kiss that was rough and filled with longing, devouring her like a hungry wolf that had been starved for days. Amelia matched his intensity, intertwining her fingers in his hair while moaning between the kisses. His hands moved up her body, exploring every inch as if he had been waiting for this moment forever and had finally gotten the opportunity. She gasped when his fingers brushed her nipple, which was already hard and longing to be licked and devoured by his mouth. She could feel the hardness of his desire pressing against her, only intensifying her own need. “You drive me crazy Amelia Smith,” he murmured against her lips. “I miss you and I don’t want to hold back tonight. I want every part of you baby girl.” “Then don’t hold back,” she quickly replied, her voice barely more than a whisper. “I’m all yours, claim me, Daddy.” Her words made his hormones rise even further. Without breaking the kiss, he hurriedly lifted her and carried her t
In Love With My Ex-Wife CHAPTER 164 - Vacation
The next day, the news spread online that Sophia committed suicide by hanging herself in prison. It felt strange and heavy but for Amelia, it meant a bitter-sweet relief. She woke up with a slight headache, the sunlight streaming through the curtains. Last night memories flooded through her mind—Leo's warm embrace, his apology and reassurance, the soft kiss that stirred long-hidden feelings. Her cheeks warmed and the color turned a shade of pink. She reached out for Leo who was already awake, sitting against the headboard with a look of concern etched on his face. “Morning, beautiful,” he said softly, studying her face for any signs of distress. “Morning,” Amelia replied, blushing and rubbing her temples. “What happened last night? I remember bits and pieces.” That was a lie, she remembered every single detail but just wanted to play innocent. Leo smiled gently. “You had a little too much fun celebrating your aunt's recovery. But it was a good night for us.” Ame
In Love With My Ex-Wife CHAPTER 163 - Life Imprisonment
A month later, Aunt Elsa’s condition had stabilized. The surgical wound had nearly healed, and all that was left was some aftercare. Once home, she could take her medication and recuperate slowly without needing further hospitalization. Early that morning, Amelia went to the hospital to handle Aunt Elsa’s discharge procedures. In the hospital room, Aunt Elsa was sitting on the bed, watching TV. Seeing Amelia come in, Aunt Elsa smiled and said, “You’re just in time. Come and see this.” She pointed to the TV. Curious, Amelia looked over and saw the news playing. A familiar face appeared on the screen, and the host’s flat, detached voice filled the room. “Recently, the sensational murder case has concluded. The primary culprit, Sophia Jones, has been found guilty of her crime." "Due to the severity and serial nature of the case, she has been sentenced to life imprisonment.” Amelia blinked rapidly, her thoughts swirling as she tried to process the news. Life imprisonm
In Love With My Ex-Wife CHAPTER 162 - Don't Overestimate Your Charm
That night, Aunt Elsa woke up. Blake checked on her and found her condition better than he had expected. Perhaps Amelia’s persistence had truly moved the heavens, as the cancer cells had cleared, and even the memory loss Blake had anticipated wasn’t present. It all seemed too good to be true. When Amelia heard the news, she was naturally overjoyed. Leo also heard about Elsa’s successful surgery. He didn’t say much, but that night, he quietly ordered the kitchen to prepare a few extra dishes, silently celebrating Elsa’s recovery. Amelia had agreed to marry Leo to secure Blake’s help for Aunt Elsa. Now that Aunt Elsa was nearly healed, Amelia realized her relationship with Leo was a temporary fix. She knew she had to find a way to completely cut ties with him. That night, Amelia decided to cook a few dishes herself. To prevent anyone from interrupting her plan, she sent the children out with Eleven for the night. Then, she dismissed the household staff Leo had hired for th
In Love With My Ex-Wife CHAPTER 161 - Interrogation
As Inspector Ralph led Sophia to the police station, her heart raced with a mix of fear and disbelief.Soon, they arrived, and one of the officers led her into the interrogation room and gestured towards a chair, "Miss Jones, please take a seat. Inspector Ralph will be here shortly."With that he left, leaving her all alone in the room. The cold, bare room did nothing to calm her racing heart it only made her heart beat faster with each passing second.The walls were painted a dull gray, and the only light was a flickering fluorescent bulb that buzzed overhead. The smell of cleaning products filled the air, making her even more anxious.She never imagined that one day she would end up in this kind of situation. She stood up to reduce the pacing of her heart and her trembling fingers.Soon, the door opened and Inspector Ralph walked in. Sophia sat down, trying to stay calm and composed. "What kind of nightmare is this?" She thought. "Can I wake up already?" She pinched herself and
In Love With My Ex-Wife CHAPTER 160 - Sophia Jones
She said in a calm voice, “You didn’t do anything wrong, and I don’t need your apology.” Once, those words had been what she wanted most, but now they meant nothing to her. The bitterness of the past clung to her like a heavy fog. She’d never considered forgiving him, so how could she accept it? After Amelia finished speaking, Leo felt a tightening in his chest. He ran a hand through his hair, frustration coursing through him as he processed the weight of her words. “Don’t say that. We were all kept in the dark before. Now that the truth is out, you know I didn’t do those things on purpose, right?” he said quickly, his voice rising slightly. Amelia sneered. “Yes, you didn’t do it on purpose, but can the pain I suffered over the years be forgotten? Leo, you didn’t personally send someone to kill us, but back then, you did divorce me because of Sophia, didn’t you?” “I can’t hate you, but I can never forgive you. We can’t pretend those years never happened. Neither you nor I c
In Love With My Ex-Wife CHAPTER 159 - Pardon The Living, Punish The Dead
The sentence made both Amelia and Leo furrow their brows. They exchanged curious glances, wondering what could prompt Black Cobra to say such a thing. Leo’s gaze hardened as he made a decision. “Pardon the living, punish the dead.” With those words, he signaled his agreement to Black Cobra’s condition. Black Cobra breathed a sigh of relief. At least he had a chance to keep living to protect his family. He knew his death would endanger their lives, and he couldn’t risk it. He then revealed the secret he’d been hiding. “The accident that led to your best friend Damien's death had nothing to do with Amelia. She wasn't the one responsible." The revelation left them both stunned. Relief washed over Amelia. Damien’s death had nothing to do with her; while surprising, Black Cobra’s words intrigued her even more. Still, she was curious to know who had caused the accident that led to Damien's death and why they’d framed her. With questions swirling in her mind, she looked at
In Love With My Ex-Wife CHAPTER 158 - A Good Mood
After getting out of the car, James opened the door, and they walked into the building. As soon as they entered, Amelia’s first impression was the smell of blood. The lights turned on, revealing a man lying on the marble floor of the living room, covered in blood. His hair clung together with sweat and blood, and both of his hands hung limply, possibly broken. His legs twisted in an unnatural position, making him look grotesque. Amelia felt as if she had seen him from somewhere. Leo gestured to James, who stepped forward and brushed away the hair covering the man’s face, revealing the person who had kidnapped her before. “How did he end up here?” Amelia asked in disbelief. Leo glanced at her. “What do you think?” It suddenly dawned on Amelia that Leo’s promise of a show tonight referred to this. Her eyes turned cold. She wasn’t a saint and wouldn’t sympathize with someone who had tried to harm her. “Who sent you to kidnap me?” she asked, her voice icy. Black Cobra had
In Love With My Ex-Wife CHAPTER 157 - Brace Yourself
On the ground, lay a mobile phone from which Sophia's voice echoed. “Have you taken action? This is your last chance Cobra, I won’t allow any more mistakes,” Sophia said sharply. Black Cobra replied coldly, “Don’t worry. This time, either she dies or I perish.” After several failures, Black Cobra’s patience had worn completely thin. Combined with Sophia’s relentless pursuit and threats, he felt trapped with no way out. He knew that failure was not an option this time, the future of his family hung in the balance, and the pressure weighed heavily on him. After speaking, Black Cobra picked up the sniper rifle. He believed that as long as Amelia dared to come out, he could kill her. Even if he was caught afterward, he would not regret it. Sophia listened to the commotion on the other end and breathed a sigh of relief before hanging up the phone. Meanwhile, at Wilson’s Domestic Group, Amelia was about to leave the office when her assistant informed her of Leo’s presence in t
