Mr Darlington Ex Wife Chapter 1
**Amara Nicholas**On the 31st of December, we were preparing for the crossover night celebration. I was in my room brushing my hair after having my bath. I donned a long blue sleeping gown and stood by my mirror.When I heard a knock on my door, I walked up to it and pulled it open. I then saw my mother's maid, Agnes, standing there and smiling at me.Agnes wore a similar long blue gown; she was light-skinned and of average height, like me. I am 24 years old, and I asked her, “What do you want, Agnes?”Smiling back at me, Agnes replied, “Good evening, Amara. Your father sent for you downstairs to see him before the crossover night begins.”“Why? We just finished having dinner, and I am not interested in the fireworks,” I replied.“I don't know, but your dad is downstairs waiting to see you, and the guests have all gone outside, preparing for the fireworks,” Agnes said."Hmm. That's fine. Inform my father that I will be with him shortly; I want to use the restroom," I told Agnes. She n

**Amara Nicholas**"Dad, I don't want to go to the city. I don't want to marry a city man," I protested, tears gathering in my eyes. My father stood up from the blue couch. He is a very tall man with a dark complexion, unlike me and my mother, who are both light-skinned.My father sighed and said, "Amara, we are not disowning you as our daughter. You will always be our daughter, but you must start your own life and family to give your mother and me grandchildren. We also do not want you to leave us, but we cannot trust all these people here to look after you. So, your mother and I made this decision: for you to go to the city, where you will be genuinely loved, not by greedy people who may be pretending to care for you just to gain favor with us.""Dad!" Tears streamed freely down my face, and my mother stood up and walked over to me."You don't have to cry. I can assure you that the Briggs family are good people, and Mr. Joshua Briggs is my childhood friend. You will be treated well

**Amara Nicholas**We entered my bedroom, which was very large, and my mother accompanied me to pack some of my things. She reminded me that the Briggs family was wealthy, and I didn't have to stress about arranging everything I owned.We finished packing all the boxes around 1 a.m., and my mother was exhausted. She stretched, yawned, and told me, "I have to go back to my room to meet your father. Good night, my princess.""Okay, Mom, but I am still not happy about this marriage. Can't you speak to my father again about it?" I asked, looking at her face with my blue-shining eyes that glimmered with hope at the thought of her agreeing."No, Amara. I want you to marry and give me a grandchild. I cannot speak to your father about this again. Not to worry—when you get to the city, I will call you from time to time to see how you're doing," my mother told me, and hot tears streamed freely down my cheeks.I didn't understand why I wasn't happy about getting married and going to the city.

**Amara Nicholas**My mom arrived in my bedroom looking radiant in her long white nightdress. She smelled fresh like a rose and came into my room with Agnes, who greeted me warmly, "Good morning, Amara. I brought your tea and bread.""Thank you," I told Agnes, accepting the teacup from her hand. I walked over to my chair, sat down, and began to drink my tea while eating the bread.My mom walked over to look out the window. After a moment, she returned to me and said, "Hurry up. The driver is already here. Why didn't you do your makeup? You know you'll be meeting your husband in the city, so you should look nice when you finally see him."I pouted my pink lips as I finished drinking my tea. Deep down, I had no intention of pleasing a man to whom I might be married. My mom said, "Agnes, get my makeup box from my room.""No, Mom. There won't be any need for that. I don't have to pretend in front of my husband. I'm perfectly okay just as I am. If I pretend with him, what if I can't keep up

**Amara Nicholas**"Ah!!" I screamed, almost causing the driver to have an accident. I was shocked to see the face of the man I was about to marry."What's the problem, my lady? Are you alright?" Mr. Timothy asked with concern as he slowed down and gazed at me cautiously through the car's rearview mirror."I'm sorry, sir. You can continue driving; I was just shocked to see my husband's face online," I said nervously. Mr. Timothy smiled understandingly, and I made a mental note not to scream so foolishly again.The drive resumed, and I continued to look at the face of the man who was about to become my husband: Darlington Briggs.I had seen him before when I started university. We crossed paths, and I accidentally stepped on him while walking with my friend Esther Peters.Esther was an accountant; she had a seductive personality and never failed to notice all the handsome, wealthy guys at university.I wondered how a rich girl like Esther Peters could be so easily swayed by money when s

**Darlington Briggs**I woke up in my bedroom to the fresh start of a brand new day—New Year's Day. I was so excited as I wanted to go downstairs to inform my parents officially that I wanted to get married this year, and I had made up my mind to settle down with Jenna Colton.Jenna has been my love for the past five years. I met her through her older brother, Bruce, who was my best friend in school.We studied the same business course and lived in Country Z, in the heart of the city. The Colton family was also wealthy and well-known here.Jenna has a successful career as an actress and model and has been the face of many brands.I knew that she had undergone several surgeries to enhance her beauty, but I still loved her nonetheless.I loved Jenna very much and didn't regret my decision to propose to her last weekend.My father didn't react to my post, and to make matters worse, I couldn't seem to find him online after the news of my engagement to Jenna went viral.It seemed my father

**Darlington Briggs**I immediately rose from the black couch and stared at my father in shock."Whose wife?" I asked again, wanting to be sure. My father stood up too and said, "Darlington, I have told you that you cannot marry Jenna. The reason I arranged for you to marry my best friend's daughter is that she is well-mannered and not a corrupt young woman like Jenna Colton.""Dad... I cannot believe you're saying this. I am the one who is marrying Jenna, not you! What gives you the right to decide my life and impose a woman on me for marriage?""That's enough, Darlington! I won't have you disrespect me in this house. You see what an elder sees from sitting down; even if you climb the tallest tree, you still cannot see it. Jenna is a corrupt woman, and she wouldn't make a good wife for you. Don't you see how artificial she looks? Do you think she will want to settle down and give you children? I am very certain she's cheating on you with her colleagues. Forget about Jenna and end what

**Darlington Briggs**How would you feel if your parents imposed a spouse on you? Someone you haven't met before?I watched my father walk away, climbing the stairs and exiting our view."Mother," I turned to my mother, struggling to comprehend the news my father had just shared about my impending marriage, like a signed document formalizing an agreement."Calm down, Darlington. You will not marry any Amara Nicholas, not while I am here," my mother said, and my younger sister laughed, prompting me to glare at her."What's so funny, Samara?" my mother asked before I could. "Just because your father didn't marry you off like that, right? That's why you are shamelessly laughing at your older brother, isn't it?""No, Mother."Our mother looked displeased at Samara, who coughed and apologized, "Mom, I'm sorry. But this is really funny. How can our dad marry Darlington without his consent or even him knowing about it? And now his wife is already coming here? Hahaha!""Samara!!" Our mother ye

Mr Darlington Ex Wife Chapter 134
Jenna's POV, The day of my wedding arrived. I dressed elegantly in a white wedding dress and accepted Collins Kingston as my husband. Collins was nice; he wore a black tux and tried to make me happy, but he wasn't Darlington. He could never be Darlington Briggs. I had to take my husband's permission to invite Darlington and his wife Amara to our wedding, but Darlington didn't want to attend. He only sent me a wedding gift: a big box full of baby clothes. After our wedding, I decided to focus on my career as a model and my husband. It was a private wedding, and it went successfully. Though I was heartbroken not seeing Darlington Briggs around. I had hoped Darlington would grace the event. But throughout the reception, I never saw him and knew that I was married to Collins now and not Darlington. I let go of the remaining feelings that I harbored for Darlington Briggs. A few days after our wedding ceremony ended, my husband and I traveled to California for our honeymoon. That was

Amara's POV, I wasn't happy when I came to Darlington's office and saw Jenna Colton with him again. Darlington assured me that he had nothing to do with Jenna, but upon seeing them standing close, I felt they wanted to kiss each other but quickly separated the moment they saw me enter the office. Jenna also appeared sad when I saw her leaving. She didn't tell Darlington goodbye, and she kept her face downward and fled the top floor where Darlington's office was. I was relieved when I saw that, and I told Darlington that I went to get some of my baby's things and would be heading home. So, I just dropped by his company to see him. Darlington smiled as he cupped my face and told me he was through with his office work. So, we went home together. Upon getting home, I saw the news trend on the television showing the engagement video of Jenna Colton that had gone viral. I couldn't believe my eyes as it hadn't been long since I last saw Jenna in Darlington's office, shedding crocodile t

Jenna Colton. "Huh!" My jaw dropped as I saw Collins with a golden ring, down on one knee in front of everyone, proposing to me. We stood in the hallway, not disturbing the others who had come for emergency treatment. Since it was no longer clinic hours, the hospital was less crowded than it usually was in the morning when a lot of outpatients filled the lobby and hallways. "Aww!" My eyes welled up with tears as I saw some fans pulling out their phones to record me. They awaited my response, and since I wanted to get out of the hospital ward quickly, I said yes, knowing that this was a new chapter of my life. Since Collins was ready to marry me, not minding my flaws and wanting to have me as his wife, I had to accept his ring. So I told him, "Yes. I accept." Collins slipped the engagement ring onto my left finger, and tears of joy welled up in my eyes as I hugged him heartily just as he rose. He was taller than me, and he didn't press to kiss me. We just hugged. "Congratulations

Jenna Colton: I walked out of Darlington's office to leave the Briggs group and saw him and Amara holding hands as he hugged her to his shoulder and walked ahead with her into his office. I immediately bolted from there like a flash, not sparing another glance their way. I went back downstairs, entered my car, and drove home. My phone rang in the car, but I was in no mood to pick it up. I cried as I found my way home. Soon, I arrived at my father's compound and wanted to drive in, but I recalled my mother would be at home. I then navigated the car and drove to the hospital to see my father. I arrived at the hospital where my father was admitted. I parked my car in the parking lot, and my phone rang again. I wanted to ignore the call as my crying could have made my voice break, and I didn't want to inform my mother about it or make her aware of my broken heart. I took up my handkerchief, wiped my face, and finally got out of the car as I proceeded into the hospital to check with

Jenna Colton, I awoke in my room to a fresh start of a new day. I decided to visit Darlington at his company to see him directly, rather than just talking over the phone as we had been trying to do. I knew that Darlington had blocked me, but I still wanted to see him. It had been a week since Darlington told me off and asked me to move on, but I didn’t want to adhere to it. Also, Lily’s brother had invited me to one of his clubs to meet with him, but I didn’t want to visit him. I desired to meet with Darlington first to know if there was still any hope of our relationship rekindling. After finishing my bath, I got out of the bathroom and dressed in a blue sleeveless dress, wanting to look pretty as I paired it with black shoes. I stepped out of my closet and went to adjust my hair in front of my room mirror. I wanted to look presentable before Darlington, so I exited the house, holding onto my car key and my black purse. So far, my father had been improving in his health, but he

Amara's POV:I awoke in the bedroom to a brand new morning, and Darlington was preparing to leave for his office. I hadn't expected the wedding gift he bought for me the previous night. I thought he was trying to reconnect with his ex, but he proved me wrong by telling me he had blocked Jenna and didn't want to have anything to do with her again.I smiled as I observed Darlington stepping out of the bathroom and walking up to the luxurious king-sized bed to meet me.He sat on the bed, water dripping from his wet hair, and drew nearer to me. "How are you and my baby doing?""I'm fine; our baby and I are good," I replied, a cute blush on my face. Darlington smiled and said, "That's good. I'm going to the office today. You remember that your dad wants to partner with me. Although he mentioned he would like you to be present, he hasn't spoken about the date for signing the partnership deal.""Does my dad want to come and visit us?" I asked Darlington as I watched him dry off his wet mascu

Jenna's POV:"Seriously, Jenna. You're very funny. Do you know that my brother has been your fan since forever? He really likes you and told me that you're his kind of woman. Hot and spicy," Lily teased me."That's enough of the teasing, Lily," I shouted at her. "I know you want me to move on from Darlington too, but I guess you haven't honestly been in love.""Oh, really? Tell me what love is all about," Lily inquired. I shook my head and went to pack my handbag that my younger sister, Rita, had brought from home."I don't have time to teach you about love. But I know what I want, and what I want, I shall get."Lily's eyes widened as I looked at her, and she burst out laughing once more. "Hahaha, how do you plan to win Darlington back? Tell me. Do you intend to kidnap him and force him to marry you, or do you want to harm his wife and eliminate her to have Darlington all to yourself now?"I paused packing my handbag and looked back at Lily's face."None of the suggestions. I know wha

Jenna's POV:I was still in the hospital, awaiting discharge. Although my father's health had improved and he had been moved from the intensive care unit after waking up, he suffered from a stroke that impaired his left hand and left leg. The doctor informed us that, with time, my father would improve as the stroke didn't affect his vocal cords.I was saddened by this fact as I waited for Darlington, who had promised to show up. However, he didn't. I called his phone several times, but it was switched off.As it got late, I was free to move around my hospital ward. The doctor had treated me after I fainted, so I was no longer confined to the bed. I called Darlington again, knowing he would have closed from his office as it was already past 6 PM. However, Darlington phoned me and told me that he didn't want to have anything to do with me anymore and that he was now dedicated to his wife, Amara.I couldn't believe what Darlington was saying. I knew he was now officially married to Amara

Darlington's POV:"What's wrong, babe?" I asked Amara as I entered our shared bedroom. She didn't reply and instead walked back to the bed to lie down. She wore a long white nightdress and laid on her side, ignoring me and not welcoming me.I frowned, looking from my wife to my briefcase in my hands and the gift I had bought for her.It crossed my mind that she was sad, thinking I went to spend precious time with Jenna when I had been working hard in my office, sitting for hours in my executive chair and focusing on some projects. I would have felt more guilty if I had actually gone to see Jenna, especially since I had switched off my phone after I told her I wouldn’t be able to meet her."Babe," I called Amara's attention as I carefully dropped my briefcase on the couch in our cozy bedroom. I walked over to the bed covered with a white mattress to meet Amara."Babe," I said, sitting on the bed beside her, but she turned to the other side to look away from me, not wanting to speak.I
