MY EX-HUSBAND’S REMORSE Chapter 34
YSABELLE As I was done dressing up Ashley and Ashton, I asked the nannies to call our bodyguards when they were done packing our luggage. I abruptly stayed away from Ashley when I felt Ronan’s presence behind me. After I saw the ring in his necklace yesterday, I've been avoiding him since then. This is how it should be. Keeping my distance from him was supposed to be my main goal from the very beginning. Why does he still have the wedding ring? I thought he despised our marriage and that ring symbolized our marriage. Those thoughts were running in my head, to the point my head and chest ached. The whole day yesterday, I felt weird because of that goddman ring. I turned my attention to folding the blanket and making sure we would leave the room neatly. Through my peripheral vision, Ronan was striding towards me. I firmly shut my eyes and walked away from him again. However, he took hold of my arm. “You haven't been talking to me since yesterday. Did I do something wr
MY EX-HUSBAND’S REMORSE Chapter 35
RONAN I miss her. I miss her frowning face towards me. A smile painted on my lips when I felt energized seeing Belle's face earlier during my call time with the twins. I tried so hard not to bother her and I'm thankful that Ashton has his own phone. She will only scowl at me for calling and disturbing her. She's getting colder and colder as time goes by. Is this not a good sign? Does she really despise me? The answer to that was obvious. I leaned in my chair and saw the board members arguing in a conference room. I went back to reality. With a sigh, I scanned the documents again on the table. The fire broke out in the L.A. warehouse and the shipment was missing or maybe stolen without our knowledge. One thing for sure is that there's a mole in my company. Who could it be? It's been days since the investigation occurred and they didn't find anything. That's impossible. I ended the messed-up meeting because they were only pointing fingers at each other
MY EX-HUSBAND’S REMORSE Chapter 36
YSABELLE I stretched my arm as I gazed at the clock, hanging on the wall. The time I've been waiting for has arrived. I pack my belongings, ready to go home. I don't know why I'm in a hurry to go home. But one thing is for sure, I'm tired. As I was about to come out of my office, Paul suddenly appeared at the door. “Miss, there's an abrupt meeting but Mr. Reid is not here, so he asks you to attend that one first.” I release a sigh as I scratch the back of my neck. “Just reschedule it for tomorrow.” Connor should show up at the meeting, not me. As I walked past him, he blocked my way. “But they did not agree.” He looks tense as he keeps glancing at his wristwatch. Why is my secretary bothered at this meeting? Connor's secretary should be the one having trouble here because his boss was not around. Jeez. I don't have any choice. With a sigh, I tap his shoulder. “Let's go then.” We made our way to the venue of the meeting but I frowned when Paul stopped the car in
MY EX-HUSBAND’S REMORSE Chapter 37
YSABELLE My hands were trembling, clasping together on my lap as I stared at Connor's seat. His words at the back of the comfort room echoed in my head up until now. Is Connor capable of killing someone? Is it that easy for him to do? Why? Those thoughts are making me anxious. This side of him bewildered me in any way. I'm shocked, scared, and anxious about what he has been doing all this time. With a shaky breath, I chugged down the water all at once. Then, Connor came back which startled me. “Is there something wrong?” “N-Nothing. Let's eat.” We continued our meals without talking. He seems bothered about something, wearing a frown on his face all along. I finished my meal as fast as I could so I could go home. After our uncomfortable meal together, he didn't insist on taking me home. “Goodnight.” I flinched when he was about to kiss my cheek just like he always does. I suddenly felt fear when he was this close. My guts are telling me that he's dangerous.
MY EX-HUSBAND’S REMORSE Chapter 38
YSABELLERonan’s face lightened up as he saw me, bewildered at his out-of-the-blue visit. But I felt relieved that he looked well despite what I speculated that Connor's target was Ronan.Why am I even worried?With a sigh, I punch in my passcode.“How are you?” He suddenly asked.“One week is not that long. Of course, I'm doing great.”We entered the unit and the twins were surprised by the sudden arrival of their father. They play in the living room as I told the nannies to get a rest now. They watch cartoons as usual while the twins fight over the character they want.I headed to my room and washed up. While in the bathtub, I'm anxious about why Ronan came back all of a sudden.He must have heard the news about us. Thinking about that stuff again gives me a headache.It's not Ronan who told the media. I know how devoted he was to his private life. My experience proves that Ronan doesn't want to talk about his private life in public. He never introduced me as his wife before.I shoo

YSABELLEMy hands automatically covered my widened eyes in shock. But I remember my naked body is displayed in front of him without anything on.“F*ck!”My whole face turned red as I reached the towel, with a trembling hand, and hid in the corner.“Jesus Christ! Ronan!”I suddenly felt a hand covering my mouth and pinned me on the wall. “Shh, the kids might wake up.”The warmth from his breath, his hand, and his body an inch apart in my naked one was giving me chills down my spine.My toes curled as I held my breath while gazing at his chiseled jaw… at his lips that leveled my eyes. Why does it look so sultry first thing in the morning?What should I do? What should I do?!!My lips parted when his Adam's apple slowly moved upside down.Now I'm deafened by the sound of my heart, pounding rapidly as if I was chased by his own Adam's apple–My eyes widened when I realized his hand was in my mouth.I kicked his knee. “Your hands!” and exclaimed in disbelief.He-He just u-use that earlier
MY EX-HUSBAND’S REMORSE Chapter 40
YSABELLEAs I want the kids to spend time with me, too, I joined them at the kids' play center. There was nobody else inside. There were simply the four of us moving around while chasing the twins running to the pool with slides and balls in the middle of the enormous and extensive room.It must be fun if other children are hanging out around here.As much as I want to join the kids in playing, I just can't. They are already having fun with Ronan.His smile and laugh, which I hadn't seen before, were all over his face. I still am not used to seeing him on this side of Ronan Volkov. “Mommy!!!”Ashley screamed and distracted my thoughts.“Ashley, lower your voice, please.”“Come, come, come.”“I will just watch over here.”How can I smile and laugh with Ronan? I heavily sigh and eat Ashton's leftover snack. I supposedly enjoy my day off with my children, but it seems they like being with their daddy right now. Am I jealous?It's better this way.If we used the law to fight custody…
MY EX-HUSBAND’S REMORSE Chapter 41
YSABELLEMy eyes widened as if our lips met for the first time in a while. My heart pounded rapidly as I felt his damp and soft lips on mine. I immediately pushed myself away from him with a trembling grip on his chest, feeling the heat gushing on my face. I can hear the faint laugh of the twins around us while our gaze locks on each other.What had just happened?However, my brows furrowed when the corner of his lips lifted. Amusement was plastered on his ocean-blue eyes.“Don't smile,” I spoke out with gritted teeth.“I'm not.”“Don't laugh.” He raises his two hands in the air, pursing his lips together. “It was an accident. Period!”“I know.” He said and his smile slowly reached his eyes.“Damn it, Ronan! Don't show me that freaking smile of yours!” I harshly threw him the balls and got off the pool with a big stride.Embarrassment filled my whole body.“Are you running away?” He exclaimed with a hint of amusement.Damn him!“Take care of the kids!”I left the kids' play center a

YSABELLEI woke up when a hand accidentally hit my face. I groaned in pain and got up only to see Amara sleeping soundly beside me. A chuckle escaped from me while caressing my cheek.It's not that painful, though.I covered Amara with a blanket and got off the bed. I glanced at the clock marked four am. It was early, but I couldn't go back to sleep, so I decided to waste some of the hours jogging around the mansion to replenish my mind.I was about to enter my room but the door of Jacob’s room suddenly opened. Jacob came out of the room, dragging his luggage behind him. I approached him with a confused look in my eyes. “Jacob, where are you going?”“I have an early flight to Australia.”My brows furrowed. “Why? I mean, Ronan would–”“Classes are starting next week. I already bid my goodbye to Dad, Ashley, and Amara last night.”He looked down, avoiding my eyes as if he were guilty of something.“That's… earlier than I thought.”I scratched the back of my neck as silence between us
MY EX-HUSBAND’S REMORSE Chapter 212
YSABELLEI open the door of the police car because I don't plan to ride Ronan's car. But Ronan closed the door and turned me around to face him."Belle, it's not what you think. Nothing happened between us–” I pushed him in irritation, but he only grabbed my hand and pinned me to the car. "Please believe me." He pleaded.I refused to meet his eyes as I struggled to pull my hand away from his grip and push him out of my way. But he's a man, and I'm only a woman who couldn't even move this guy away from me."Get out of my face." I snarled.His Adam's apple moves before firmly saying, "No."I'm tired. I don't want to argue with him. Also, there are people around us.I avoided his eyes but only to see Jacob's inside the police mobile, silently waiting."Talk to him."Through my peripheral vision, I saw him looking in the direction I was staring. He slowly let go of my wrist while sighing deeply. With furrowed brows, I glared at him and saw him only solemnly staring at Jacob."Don't just s

YSABELLE"Jacob? Are you alright-"Before I could even continue my words, Candice suddenly pushed me, causing me to fall on the floor. She immediately sat on my stomach, wrapping her fingers tightly around my neck."Don't let your guard down, bitch,"I tightly shut my eyes as I struggled under her, trying to push her and take her hands off of me. Damn it! I'm losing my breath and it feels like my veins are about to explode any moment now.With gritted teeth, I also did the same to her neck, burying my nails in her skin and I'm doing my best to escape from this nightmare–"Enough!"Suddenly, the weight in my stomach disappeared, as well as the violent hands of Candice from my neck. I coughed so hard, trying to catch my breath while caressing my neck from the pain she had caused.Shit! I almost became a memory! Sweat trickled down my temple as I hazily looked in front of me, trying to focus my sight on the person who took Candice off of me.But my eyes widened to see an unexpected man
MY EX-HUSBAND’S REMORSE Chapter 210
YSABELLEI anxiously swallowed the lump stuck in my throat as I stared at Candice intently, waiting for her response. She inhaled sharply as her eyes didn't leave mine. Suspicion lingered in her eyes and I can't help but curl my toes in nervousness.If she's dumb enough to believe my words–"Okay."My left brow rose abruptly.Uhmm... I didn't expect that, but that's what I want to happen.With a sigh, she reached for my chain around my ankle as she took out the keys from her pocket. The corner of my lips lifted when she finally inserted the key in a lock."If you had just done that before, we wouldn't have led to this kidnapped thingy." She mumbled under her breath. Once she released my ankle, her face lifted on mine. "So-"I strike her face with my knee, causing her to fall on the ground with loud screams in pain."FUCKI"I whimpered in pain as I caressed the knee I used because of the strong impact it created on her face. I bet I broke her nose."Yeah, fuck you bitch." I said under
MY EX-HUSBAND’S REMORSE Chapter 209
YSABELLE"Congratulations! You have been fooled for the second time!"My chest twisted in pain as my eyes wavered while staring at the picture on Candice's phone. I hate seeing him on the bed with another woman. It felt like the past resurfaced again and again every time Ronan interacted with them.However, as I kept staring at the photo, Ronan was sleeping in an uncomfortable position, which made me frown. He never sleeps on his stomach because it makes him feel uncomfortable, and his neck the next morning would definitely give him pain.Something is not right.My eyes caught Candice behind the phone, grinning from ear to ear while staring at me as if waiting for something interesting to happen.Did she take the picture? For what? To brag about it to me? If she likes Ronan that much, why does she let that woman sleep with Ronan?I trust Ronan... after all those years we've been together... I know he won't waste it just like before. But I have the right to get mad and feel betrayed.A

RONANI kicked the door in rage as I stormed out of the club where I last saw that woman. I did everything I could to find her information and make sure I could get hold of her. But the owner of the club didn't know the woman. She's not a regular here.I had already sent the little information I'd got to Kevin to do the rest of locating this woman. I should not have left that morning. I only want confirmation if something happened between us or not.As far as I remember, I didn't get drunk that much to the point that I collapsed and blacked out. Did she put anything in my drinks? No, she didn't offer me anything.Damn! My head is aching up now.I slammed the door of my Ferrari, and the first thing I saw when I entered the car was Belle's picture on my dashboard, together with my children.She was so gorgeous with those smiles.My chest twisted in pain as the face of the woman came across my mind."Jesus, what have I done?" I tightly shut my eyes in fury as my fingers tightened around
MY EX-HUSBAND’S REMORSE Chapter 207
YSABELLEA door was wide open behind me. With a small light coming from outside the door, a silhouette of a woman at the doorway sent shivers down my spine. Though, I can't clearly see her face due to the darkness inside the room.Who is she?-- Wait... Where's Jacob?“Who's there?” I asked as I was about to try to stand on the ground, getting my balance, but a chuckle echoed inside the room, which made me freeze.That familiar laugh…My pulse anxiously thrummed as I squinted my eyes to focus on the face of this lady wearing a dress with short, wavy hair.A sly grin formed on her lips, which made my legs tremble in fear."Ca-Candice?"It couldn't be right… I abruptly closed my eyes when the lights suddenly switched on."Yes, dear."My soul almost left my body upon hearing her voice. Is it really her? I slowly raised my gaze and met her grinning face. "When have you been out?" She wore blonde artificial hair and put on heavy makeup. Maybe to make sure no one recognizes her."You don'

YSABELLEJacob doesn't have any choice but to follow me inside the building. I know he's scared to face Ronan, but I don't want him to bury a rage deep down in his heart about Ronan.We headed straight to the CEO's office but found his office empty. He's not around, and neither is his secretary.I called the receptionist through Ronan's telephone, and a woman answered immediately."Hi. This is Belle Volkov. Where's Ronan?""Good day, Ms. Volkov. As far as I know, Mr. Volkov is not around."My brows furrowed in confusion. "What do you mean he's not around?""Mr. Volkov didn't come to work."My ears perked at her words as my jaw clenched.If the people here tell me he's absent from work, it means Ronan has no other outdoor meeting or anything related to the company.Where is he? He's not at home, and if he goes somewhere not related to work, he always tells me so I won't get worried. But why he didn't tell me anything today? Because he's angry?"Where's his secretary?""He's on sick lea
MY EX-HUSBAND’S REMORSE Chapter 205
YSABELLE “Why didn't you talk to him?”“He refused to let me visit Mom, so there's no need to ask his permission to go back to Australia.”I can sense his irritation just by mentioning Ronan. I can't blame him. Ronan just does whatever he wants, not even realizing what Jacob might have felt.He's just a child wanting to see his parents and know how they are doing. But Ronan didn't understand his feelings, which added to Jacob's frustration.“He still needs to know. Wait here, I will call him.”I walked to the door, but he stopped me by holding my hand.“He's busy and still angry at me. Also…” He looked away and turned his back on me as he let go of my hand. “I don't want to see or talk to him.”“Jacob, he's only doing this for your own good. You already know the past of your mother and your biological father, right?”“I just want to talk to them. Is that a crime?”I was taken aback at his words.“N-No, it's not.”He stared at me with mixed emotions. His eyes filled with anger, pain,
