My Ex-Husband is Out of Control CHAPTER 213
Elijah’s POVThe moment I stepped into the lobby of my office building, I felt at home. This was definitely oddly comforting, providing a small slice of normalcy in a world that had recently gone haywire. I barely registered the greetings from the receptionist as I made my way to the elevators. My mind was still consumed with the events of the past week. Julia—or whoever she really was—had left me with mixed emotions of anger, relief, and confusion. The wedding that never happened felt like a distant memory now, one that I was grateful hadn't come to pass. I never loved her that way, anyway, I thought sadly. But she still betrayed me, and I cared so much about her. Surprisingly, it hurt a lot. What’s more, I was no closer to finding Sabrina than I'd been all those years ago. The realization that I was back to square one was hard to swallow.As the elevator doors closed, my phone buzzed in my pocket. I glanced at the screen and saw Trevis's name. “Hey, Trevis,” I answered, my voice

Sophia’s POVI pushed open the glass doors of the hospital, the antiseptic smell hitting my nose and making my stomach churn. My heart was pounding so loudly I could barely hear the chatter of the nurses at the front desk. The world around me seemed to blur as I approached the reception, my feet feeling heavy and unsteady.“Good afternoon, how can I help you?” the receptionist asked, her smile professional but kind.“I'm here to pick up some DNA test results,” I managed to say, my voice barely above a whisper. My hands trembled as I handed her the slip with my details.She typed something into her computer, then nodded. “One moment, please.”I stood there, trying to breathe steadily. My mind raced with a million thoughts. What will happen if I turn out to be Sabrina? Will I tell Elijah? Do I even want to be Sabrina?“Here you go,” the receptionist said, handing me a sealed envelope.“Thank you,” I said, barely audible. I took the envelope, my fingers trembling so much I almost dropped

Sophia’s POVMy heart pounded hard as I waited for Julia to answer. She seemed taken aback for a little while. Then suddenly, her expression twisted into a cruel smirk, and she let out an evil laugh.“You really are a stupid woman, Sophia. You don’t deserve to be with Elijah. You should’ve realized by now that all he cared about was who Sabrina was. Not you. It was never about you. And besides, you already left him once, so why bother going back and being treated the same way?”I was shocked, the words stinging like a slap to the face. But I refused to let her see how much it affected me. I took a deep breath, trying to remain calm and composed. “You didn’t answer my question, Julia.”Her smirk faded, replaced by a look of annoyance and anger. “You may be the real Sabrina, but you don’t even remember anything! What use are you to Elijah? If not for your child, he wouldn’t be bothered with being with you.”I gasped. “So you’ve always known that I’m Sabrina?”She didn’t answer me direct

Sophia’s POVThe car ride to the airport was anything but quiet. Kayla and Connor were deep in conversation up front, their voices occasionally punctuated by bursts of laughter or sharp exchanges. I, however, was wrapped up in my own world, seated alone in the backseat, thinking about the last conversation I had with Elijah. Kayla’s voice suddenly broke through the chatter. “You know, I just can’t wrap my head around why we’re even bothering to send Serena off. I mean, she’s not as evil as Julia, but she’s still got a lot of skeletons in her closet. Plus, she caused a lot of trouble too! Remember when she spiked your drink, Sophia? Gosh, that was cruel. And she’s stolen plenty from Elijah’s company too.”Connor glanced at her, a trace of bemusement in his eyes. “It seems like Serena’s really turned things around. She’s made amends, after all.”I could barely follow what they were talking about, as my mind kept replaying every detail of my conversation with Elijah. The way he’d looke
My Ex-Husband is Out of Control CHAPTER 217
Elijah’s POVI tried to stay focused on my conversation with Serena, but my attention kept drifting to the scene unfolding nearby. Sophia and Adrian were saying their goodbyes, and despite my best efforts, I couldn’t tear my eyes away. Kayla’s voice carried over the noise of the terminal, her teasing tone clear even from a distance. I couldn’t quite make out her words, but it seemed like she was playfully probing Adrian about something, maybe insinuating that there’s something between him and Sophia. There’s nothing between them, is there? I thought, disturbed. Is that story starting over again?!No, no, no. It’s not possible. That was another voice in my head. “What are you looking at?” Serena’s voice brought me back to the present. She touched my shoulder lightly, her fingers warm against my skin.I glanced at her, trying to shake off the distraction. “Just... distracted. It’s been a long day. And we’ve all been through so much.”She smiled gratefully, her eyes soft. “Yes, that’s

Elijah’s POV“Sophia, can you ride with me?” I blurted out.They all stopped walking and turned toward me. Kayla and Connor exchanged meaningful glances, communicating with their eyes. I don’t really care what they think. I just have to talk to Sophia now. Sophia hesitated, her gaze moving rapidly between us. Connor finally broke the silence.“We actually have a date planned after this,” he said with a grin, nudging Kayla. Then looking at Sophia, he added, “You should take Elijah up on his offer.”I found myself grinning at Connor. He was definitely a loyal employee and friend, always had been. Sophia’s hesitation wavered, and she looked back at me. “Alright, if you’re sure it’s not too much trouble.”I smiled, relieved. “Not at all. I wanted to talk to you about Reese anyway. Maybe we can plan a family getaway or something.”“Ooh,” Kayla couldn’t help whispering. Sophia threw her a glance, and she shut up immediately but was still grinning. It actually puzzled me, wondering if she

Sophia’s POVElijah didn’t contact me while I was at work the following day. I didn’t know whether to feel relieved or disappointed. Stepping out of the office building, I glanced around, ready to go home. But then, I suddenly spotted a familiar luxury sedan parked up front. Daniel was waving at me from behind the wheel, a broad smile on his face. I couldn't help but smile back, surprised and genuinely glad to see him.“Daniel!” I called out as I walked over to his car. “What are you doing here?”He stepped out of the car, his smile widening. “Hey, Sophia. I’m sorry it was only my driver who brought Reese home last night. I really wanted to see you, but I knew that you were also probably tired already…”“Yeah, I could hardly wait up for Reese to come home.” “So I just wanted to see you today and tell you that it looks like I’ll be staying home for a long while.”“That's wonderful news,” I said, truly happy for him. “Yes, definitely. It’s been tiring but very productive.” He was che
My Ex-Husband is Out of Control CHAPTER 220
Elijah’s POVWhy can’t I just talk to her straight, tell her what Serena had been insinuating? And then tell her how I’ve been feeling?I sighed, thinking about Sophia once again. I just couldn’t stop thinking about her. I leaned against the windowsill of my office, staring out at the city below. In my hand, I swirled the last of the wine in my glass. The days since the airport sendoff felt like a haze, a series of moments where I replayed the same scenes in my mind over and over.Dropping Sophia off at her apartment, almost asking her if she was Sabrina, almost telling her how I truly felt… Holy shit! The words had been right there, on the tip of my tongue, but something held me back. Fear, maybe. Or perhaps the gnawing uncertainty that I could be wrong.I’m not sure how she’ll react, and that scares me. She’d always been adamant that she wasn’t Sabrina. I took a sip of the wine, savoring its warmth before placing the glass on my desk. I picked up my cellphone, scrolling until I fo
