My Ex-Husband is Out of Control CHAPTER 215
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

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

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

Kayla’s POVSitting across from Connor in the quaint little cafe, I couldn't help but smile as I stared at him over the delicious spread of pastries on our table. Sometimes I still couldn’t believe that we had ended up together. But I was really happy with him. Connor took a sip of his latte and smiled at me. “So, how's Adrian doing in Italy?” he asked curiously.I leaned back in my chair, a smile tugging at my lips. “He just had his first successful concert there,” I said proudly. “He's off to another venue soon. He's really making a name for himself over there. People are loving him!”Connor nodded, a pleased expression on his face. “That's great to hear. Has he been hanging out with Serena much?”I hesitated, choosing my words carefully. “Adrian was kind of vague about it,” I admitted. “But I think he's still in love with Sophia. He's always asking how she is.”Connor frowned slightly, his face showing great concern. “Elijah is beyond himself,” he said, lowering his voice. “He's h

Sophia’s POV“Mommy, look at that big roller coaster!” Reese squealed, her little feet bouncing off the pavement as she tugged on my hand. The balloon bobbed happily above her head, its bright colors reflecting the sunlight.“I see it, sweetie! Isn’t it amazing?” I said, smiling as I glanced over at Daniel. He was walking beside us, looking happy and content as he observed Reese’s excitement.“Yeah, I haven’t seen a roller coaster that big in ages,” Daniel said, chuckling as he adjusted his sunglasses. “I’m glad you two are having a great time.”“I really appreciate you bringing us here, Daniel,” I said, squeezing his arm gratefully. “Reese is having the time of her life.”“No problem at all,” Daniel replied with a warm grin. “It’s been a while since I had a chance to hang out like this. I’m glad I could be part of it.”The amusement park stretched out before us, showing off a vibrant tapestry of colorful stalls, thrilling rides, and cheerful crowds. Brightly lit attractions towered a

Sophia’s POVThe warm scent of baked rosemary chicken and freshly baked bread greeted me as I stepped into Phoebe’s cozy apartment, immediately putting me at ease. Roxy and Jared scurried ahead, their laughter bouncing off the walls. Reese was the first to greet them, her face lighting up as she jumped up from the playmat in the corner.“Mommy!” Reese ran over, wrapping her arms around me in a quick hug before joining her siblings. “We’re playing house! Jared is the baby!”I laughed, kissing the top of her head. “You all behave, alright? And no bossing Jared around too much, Reese.”Kayla emerged from the small kitchen, balancing baby Asha on her hip. Her warm smile widened when she saw me. “Sophia! Finally. I was starting to think you’d gotten stuck in another snowstorm.”“Trust me, I almost did,” I said, exhaling as I set down my bag. “Thanks for picking up Reese. You’re a lifesaver.”“No problem,” Kayla replied, adjusting Asha in her arms. “You know I love spending time with your l

Sophia’s POVAs I stepped into my car, the cold leather seats sent a sharp chill through me. The afternoon sun, shy but persistent, peeked through scattered clouds, bathing the pristine snow in a gentle radiance. Thankfully, the blizzard had blown over quickly, and the roads were clear enough to navigate. It was the kind of crisp day that made the world feel brand new, but my thoughts were far from fresh.Lucas stood near the entrance of the ski resort, his hands shoved into his coat pockets. He waved, a warm smile on his face as I rolled down my window.“Thanks for coming, Sabrina,” he called, his voice carrying easily in the still air. I forced a polite smile, not knowing how to feel about him still calling me Sabrina up to now, especially after what I'd just discovered about my childhood. “Thanks, Lucas. The resort has so much potential. I’ll send over the updated designs soon.”“I’m looking forward to it,” he said, stepping back. “Drive safe. Roads might still be icy in some spot

Emily’s POVThe biting cold wrapped around me like a vice as the forest settled into an eerie stillness. The sounds of the chase from the night before had faded, but they seemed to continue echoing in my head. My legs ached, my hands were raw, and my breath fogged in the frigid air as I stumbled forward, searching for something—anything—that could serve as a refuge.It’s getting late. I have to find shelter first. The darkness was suffocating, but then, faintly, through the trees, I saw a glimmer of light. My heart leaped as I cautiously approached, praying it wasn’t a trap. What I found instead was a small, dilapidated hunting shack, nearly swallowed by the forest. Its wooden walls were warped, the roof sagging in places, but it was shelter. For now, it was enough.Inside, the air was stale and cold, but at least it shielded me from the howling wind. I found a dusty lantern and managed to light it with trembling hands, its soft glow pushing back the shadows. There was an old cot in

Sophia’s POVThe memory hung in my mind like a shadow, vivid and unsettling. Lucas’s voice—the one I had heard in my dream, the one calling for Sabrina—now felt too real to dismiss as just a fragment of my imagination.I tried to focus on the snow, its mesmerizing dance beyond the glass, but my mind wouldn’t stop racing.And then Lucas stepped closer, his presence pulling me from my turmoil. His eyes searched mine. “What are you remembering?” he asked carefully. I turned to face him fully, my heart thundering in my chest. “It’s… hard to explain,” I began, forcing the words out through the lump in my throat. “I had a dream—a nightmare, really—about when I got lost in the snowstorm as a child. I mean, I already know that it was Morgana who actually left me behind because she’d met with her lover then. But now…”Lucas’s eyes narrowed. “Now what?”“Well, in my dream, I thought I heard Elijah calling my name. He’d been there with his family too, so…”Lucas’s expression tightened, but he s

Sophia’s POVThe view outside the window was breathtaking—snow-dusted hills stretching endlessly under a pale blue sky. The cozy lounge, with its crackling fire and soft golden lighting, felt like the perfect setting for a romantic moment. It should have been calming, but my mind was anything but calm.That photo of Elijah and Victoria burned in my memory. Her sitting so close to him, their laughter captured at just the right moment. It made my chest tighten with anger and something I didn’t want to name—jealousy. The thought alone made me queasy, but it also left me vulnerable. Vulnerable to Lucas.I glanced at him. He stood just a few feet away, his expression soft but intent, watching me like I was the only person in the world. His confession still echoed in my ears, and I couldn’t deny the pull of the moment. It was too perfect, too charged. For a brief, fleeting second, I let myself wonder what it would feel like to bask in his affection, to let myself be swept up in something s

Elijah’s POVThe silence in my office was deafening. I leaned back in my chair, staring at the half-empty coffee cup on my desk. The bitterness clung to my tongue, a reminder of the recent situation in my marriage. Oh, Sophia. What’s happening to us?She’d been consuming my every thought lately. And not in the way she used to. Not with warmth or laughter, but with cold uncertainty. We hadn’t spoken properly since I sent her those flowers. It was my way of saying: I still care about you. She’d thanked me, of course, but there was no follow-up. No deep conversation. I really miss her. God knows how much I miss my wife. We used to talk about everything. The kids. Work. The stupid little things that made up our days. Now? She was busy. Always busy. Late nights at the office. Early mornings. And when she was home, she was either buried in her laptop or tiptoeing around me like I was made of glass. And it wasn’t just work. It was that damn Lucas who found a way to be with her more. Just

Sophia’s POVThe image of Elijah and Victoria stayed with me, eating away at my thoughts like an unyielding tempest. They looked so comfortable together, so... familiar. It wasn’t just Victoria’s presence that unnerved me—it was the way Elijah seemed to let her get close. Is he falling for her? No. No, it’s impossible. But the seed of doubt had been planted, and it was growing faster than I could contain it.We need to talk. Soon. Heart to heart, I resolved, my chest tightening as I fought back a surge of emotion. The silence of the room around me only made the ache sharper, more vivid.Just then, Lucas’s footsteps broke through the quiet, and I quickly pushed my phone back into my pocket. He entered the lounge with a tray balanced in his hands, two mugs of steaming hot chocolate sending up tendrils of inviting warmth.The image of Elijah and Victoria lingered in my mind, gnawing at my thoughts like a relentless storm. They looked so comfortable together, so... familiar. It wasn’t j

Sophia’s POV“Lucas,” I called out, stepping onto the cobblestone path that led to the resort’s grand, albeit faded, entrance. “You’ve got a prime location here.”He emerged from the double doors, his familiar grin warm against the chilly mountain air. “Sophia, welcome. How was the drive up?”“Long,” I admitted, adjusting my scarf as the wind tugged at it. I was bundled up in a navy wool coat, a pair of tan ankle boots, and a thick cream-colored knit scarf. The frosty air bit at my cheeks, and I shoved my gloved hands into my coat pockets for warmth. “But worth it. This place…” I gestured to the sprawling ski resort behind him, its old-world charm dulled by time and neglect. “It’s stunning. Or at least, it has the bones to be.”Lucas chuckled, his gaze lingering on me. “That’s why you’re here. To make it amazing again.”As I stepped closer, I caught the faint scent of pine and woodsmoke clinging to the air, mingling with the crispness of the snow-dusted ground. For a brief moment, the
My Ex-Husband is Out of Control CHAPTER 568
Sophia’s POVThe sight of Phoebe standing in the doorway took my breath away. She looked so different from the last time I’d seen her—thinner, her cheekbones more pronounced, her posture subdued. But her eyes, wide and shimmering with unshed tears, carried a familiar depth of emotion that struck me instantly. Before I could speak, she stepped forward and wrapped both Kayla and me in a tight embrace.“Phoebe,” I murmured, still stunned. “You’re here.”Her hug felt prolonged, as if she were drawing strength from it. When she pulled back, her hands rested firmly on my arms, her smile wavering slightly. “I couldn’t stay away any longer,” she said, her voice soft but laden with feeling. “I needed to see you.”“We’ve missed you so much,” Kayla said, adjusting Asha on her hip. Asha reached out with a tiny hand, patting Phoebe’s cheek, as if sensing the tension in the air. Kayla smiled gently, her tone as soothing as always. “How have you been?”Phoebe hesitated, brushing a tear from her chee
