I gasped, My heart raced as I read the title: Divorce agreement. "Ethan… why?” My voice cracked, tears welled up in my eyes. "I knew things hadn't been going well between us but I think we can still work things out." "It's too late," he whispered, his voice cold and devoid of any emotion. "Celine is back." He blurted out and my heart leaped to my throat as the name sent a chill into my heart. ********************************************* Sonia has put in her best to make her marriage work with her cold and distant, husband, Ethan Adamson whose heart still belongs to his ex-fiancee. She was happy when she found out that she was pregnant, thinking that she would finally succeed in gaining her husband's love when she break the news to him but little did she know that her husband had another plan for her. She planned to surprise her husband with the news on the night of their anniversary but her husband came back home and threw a divorce paper at her, stating that his ex is back. She was shattered and heartbroken. She is aware of the fact that he didn't love her but she wasn't expecting him to throw away their three years together because of his ex who cheated on him. Five years later, she resurfaced as a renowned business owner and came to London with her son for a short business trip but Ethan would go to heaven and hell to get her back into his arms. Would she accept him back?

"Hmmm..." I sighed heavily and reached for the cigarette in my pocket. I lit it, the flame caught quickly and I took a long drag, letting the smoke escape through my nose and mouth like poison I couldn’t spit out any other way.She really said no even after everything? I chuckled, shaking my head.I have been planning this for weeks and I thought… I truly believed this would be the moment she would finally choose me but instead, she looked at me with pure disgust.The truth is that, I haven’t slept properly in days since she told me about Ethan and the fire at his mansion and how she was staying with him at the hospital.Jealousy burned in my chest that night like a wildfire. I couldn’t
SoniaI looked at Alex and I realized that the man sitting right in front of me wasn't the Alex I used to know because the Alex I knew would never do anything to hurt me."I would rather lose my company than accept your proposal," I said firmly, locking eyes with Alex. My voice was steady but my heart was a storm“Is that so?” he chuckled darkly, leaning back in his chair with a cruel smile. “We’ll see about that.”My breath hitched. What happened to you, Alex? What happened to the man who once said he respected me? The man who offered to help me in my trying time?“Fine,” I said, my voice sharper now. “Then at least open my office so I can get my personal things.”He shook his head slowly. “I’m sorry, Sonia. That won’t be possible.”I blinked, stunned. “What?” I asked, barely able to believe my ears. “You’re saying I can’t even pack up my personal stuff?”“Yes,” he said coldly. “That’s exactly what I’m saying.”Unbelievable!The dam of emotions inside me trembled. Rage, heartbreak, d
SoniaThe moment I stepped out of the car, I asked Trent to wait outside the office building for me.“I’ll be fine,” I said, forcing a smile. “Please, I don’t want to draw any unnecessary attention.”He shook his head firmly. “Mr. Ethan said I should stay with you at all times.”“I know,” I sighed. “But this is my office, Trent. Just stay close, alright? I’ll only be here for a few hours.”After a long pause, he finally gave in. “Alright. But if anything seems off, I’m coming in.”I nodded and walked into the building, trying to shake off the unease still clinging to me. But the moment I stepped inside, I knew something was wrong.There was a strange tension in the air. Some of the staff greeted me with forced smiles, others looked away as if making eye contact with me would get them into trouble. I could even hear whispers behind my back but no one dared say anything to my face and that was when I saw Tara.She looked like she hadn’t slept all night. Her face was pale, her eyes fille
SoniaI woke up with a pounding headache as my body felt heavy like I hadn't slept at all. But the truth is... I haven't. I spent the whole night staring at the ceiling, flinching at every little sound. The fear that Daniel was out there, watching my every move… waiting for me… was enough to keep my eyes wide open.Last night, I begged Ethan to let Jay sleep in our room just so I could keep him close. But Ethan gently declined, saying it was better to keep things normal for Jay’s sake. Still, he doubled the security around the house. Now, there’s a guard right outside the door."Hmmm..." I sighed deeply as I sat up, rubbing my temples. My body felt drained. I glanced around the room. Ethan wasn’t in bed. I figured he must have gone downstairs. Probably trying to act like everything is fine for me and Jay.Dragging myself out of bed, I was heading toward the bathroom when the bedroom door creaked open. I turned quickly, my heart skipping a beat.Then I saw Ethan but something was off
SoniaMy heart was pounding so loudly that I could hear it in my ears. Every part of my body was shaking as I slowly turned around, silently praying that whoever tapped me shouldn't be who I was thinking.But when I finally faced him, I let out a shaky breath."Thank God!" It wasn’t Daniel.But still… something didn’t feel right.The man standing in front of me wore all black just like the figure I saw earlier. A black hoodie, black jeans, and a cap pulled low over his face.My heart didn’t stop racing as I felt there was something about his presence. You know... something… Cold, Quiet. And yet… intimidating.“Are you alright? You… look scared,” he said, his voice unexpectedly soft, almost gentle that It didn’t match the heaviness of his aura as his eyes studied me carefully.I swallowed hard and forced myself to nod. “I… I’m fine,” I stammered, trying to sound convincing. But even I didn’t believe my own voice.He gave me a small smile and extended his hand. “I’m Dr. Ryan.”I hesi
SoniaAfter I dropped Jay off at school, I decided to stop by the supermarket to get some groceries. I will be resuming work tomorrow and I wanted to make sure the house Is well-stocked before then.Ethan enjoys the food I prepare way more than the maids’ cooking. it’s written all over his face whenever he takes a bite. So I figured if I stocked the fridge properly, it would make it easier for me to cook even after work.As I strolled through the supermarket aisle, tossing things into the cart, I felt a little sense of peace. It was just a normal day or so I thought.I was at the counter paying for everything when someone walked through the entrance, dressed completely in black, a cap pulled low over his face.At first, I didn’t think much of it… until I glanced back again and my heart almost stopped.The build, the way he walked… It looked exactly like Daniel.No… this is not possible, It can't be..I blinked rapidly. I have to be imagining things. Daniel is dead. Ethan shot him. I
EthanThere is only one way to find out the person that entered my house and that is by checking the CCTV footage.I can't take any chances, not when Sonia and Jay are with me.I turned to my guards. "Two of you, stay by the front door. The rest, follow me." I ordered,my voice filled with hesitation.Without wasting time, we rushed to the CCTV room. The guards did not need to be told before they knew what to do. One of them immediately powered up the system and began scanning the footage as soon as we entered the room.We checked everything right from the front gate to the living room and the hallway leading to my room but we saw nothing. No one came in or went out.I frowned. "Check again," I ordered, my voice sharp.The guard rewound the footage, going over it carefully, second by second. But still… there was nothing."Boss, there’s no sign of anyone," one of them said hesitantly, glancing at me.I stood frozen. My mind raced.How is this possible? I saw someone. I chased someone or
Ethan The soft glow of the bedside lamp cast a golden light over Sonia’s face as she slept peacefully beside me. Her breath was slow and steady, her delicate lashes resting against her cheeks and for a moment, I just watched her, mesmerized by her beauty. She took care of me tirelessly, refusing to let me do anything even though my hands were nearly healed. I was discharged from the hospital yesterday and she insisted on staying in my room just in case I needed anything during the night. I smiled and leaned in, pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead. My heart swelled with an emotion so deep, it almost hurt as I remembered what she said when I asked her to be my girlfriend. She told me to make her fall in love with me again. God, this woman is driving me crazy. If that is what she wanted then I would give it my all. I would make her fall in love with me so hard that she would never think of leaving me again. A sudden vibration of my phone snapped me out of my thoughts.
Alex "Sonia… I'm sorry!" I called out, my voice filled with desperation but she didn’t stop. She just kept running. Fuck! I ran after her, my heart pounding but before I could reach the garage, the sound of an engine roaring to life made me freeze. No… I watched helplessly as Sonia sped out of the driveway, disappearing into the busy road. "Dammit!" I shouted, raking my fingers through my hair. I didn't mean for things to go this far. I didn't mean to force myself on her. I am not that kind of man. But Sonia… Sonia is driving me insane. She kept pushing me away and I am losing control. I am losing her. I spun around and stormed back to my office, grabbing my phone off the desk. My fingers trembled as I dialed her number. The phone rang but there was no answer. I called again but it was still the same thing. I sent a text. Then another. Then another but no reply. I knew she must be angry with me right now. Dropping my phone onto the desk, I let out a frustrated sigh
Sonia's POV I smiled as I baked the cake with excitement. Today is a special day for me. It's my wedding anniversary with my husband, Ethan. But this year was special, there was something even more precious to be celebrated. I'm pregnant and the thought of it makes my stomach swell with joy. After my miscarriage last two years, I hadn't gotten pregnant since then. I was shocked when the doctor handed me the result and told me that I was pregnant. I couldn't contain my joy as I screamed with excitement. I'm planning to surprise Ethan with my pregnancy result tonight even though Things haven't been going well between us for a while now but I can't wait to see his reaction, to watch his face light up when I told him the news. I spent the entire day preparing as the kitchen buzzed with the aroma of his favorite dishes. The table was set, Everything was perfect and My hands trembled slightly as I placed the final touches, imagining the surprise and happiness in his eyes when he wal...
