No Longer Yours, Ex Husband Chapter 32
[Vivienne]When Rosita suggested celebrating my freedom from a painful marriage, I didn’t expect her to drive us to the most high-end club in the city. I thought we’d go to some nice restaurant and have a lovely dinner, talk about our lives, and do what friends do when they meet after such a long time.But I should have seen this coming. Rosita had always been the loud one between the two of us. She always had a reason or two ready to throw a party or convince others to throw one.Anyway, the good thing is, at least I’m dressed for the night.Because of the way she has been circling me and whistling I might have gained her approval.“Holyshit, Vivienne. This dress looks so damn stunning on you," she comes in front of me, grinning ear to ear. “I don’t act cocky at my work all the time, but right now, I feel like I have just birthed a goddess. White really suits you, and these golden hoops, oh my god, I think I might fall in love with you and I’m not even Bi.”I roll my eyes at her exag

[Vivienne]“Let me go, you asshole!” I growl. “Or I swear to God, I’ll rip your balls off.”I can tell the stranger is in a lot of pain, but he doesn’t let go of me. Instead, he tightens his grip and whispers in my ear, “If you’re not careful with your words, you’re not getting out of here alive.”His voice sends chills down my spine, but it doesn’t change the way I feel right now. “I said let go. Or do you need me to repeat myself?”“Oh, come on, babe, no need to be so angry,” the other stranger says. “Just loosen up a bit. Have some fun with us.”“Yeah,” his friend agrees, inching closer.The first guy’s breath smells of beer. I crinkle my nose.“You know you want this, just admit it. We can give you what you want,” he whispers.I look away and roll my eyes at the ceiling. “In your dreams.”“But you do—” The rest of his words are cut off by a giant man who suddenly appears in front of us. The man is so tall, so broad, and so dangerous-looking that I find my breath hitching in my thro

[Vivienne]When I wake up next time, my head hurts like hell.My body feels like it has been run over by dozens of elephants, and I find myself blinking up at the ceiling, trying to make sense of everything around me.I turn to lie on my side, only to find a large expanse of someone’s naked back blocking my vision.That’s when the first wave of panic sets in.“Oh my god!” I yell and jump up, my heart beating in my throat. I look down at myself for good measure, and that’s when a second wave of panic hits.“What the hell?!” I squeak. I’m absolutely naked. And not just that—there are bruises on my inner thighs and a deep, deep bite mark on my hip.Oh god. No. This is a bad, bad dream. That’s it. This must be a nightmare.“No!” I shake my head and bolt out of the bed, now facing the bed and staring at the man who was lying beside me.I cup my mouth and try not to have a breakdown.“God, what did I do?” I run my fingers through my hair and realize it’s a complete tangled mess.I try to th

[Caden]I’m still trying to piece the night together when Vivienne starts throwing accusations at me. Every word she says, every glare she shoots my way, hits me straight in the chest like a thousand arrows.“You know what? This act of yours has made things final for me. I want that divorce, Caden. And I want that divorce now.”But when those final words come out of her mouth, something snaps in me. Ever since I woke up, I have tried to be patient, to hear her out, but what the actual fuck?“So that’s how this is going to be?” I say as she starts to head for the door, still not able to walk straight as she sways a little, probably because of the hangover she is trying to fight.Before she gets to open the door, however, I stalk over and slam it shut. She turns to glare up at me harder, but I’ve had enough of her mindless accusations.Especially when she doesn’t even know what happened last night.Or maybe she does, and now she’s trying to put the blame on me because it’s easier to do

[Sasha]When I reach the Lawrence residence, I hear Caden’s mom and Avery laughing before I even enter the living room. They’re both on the couch, smiling widely, and their faces brighten even more when they see me.“Sasha!” Avery rushes over and hugs me tightly. “Thank God you’re here. Mom and I were just talking about you.”“Really? Talking about me?” I ask, pulling back from the hug and plastering on a smile. “What were you saying?”Avery leads me to the couch, her eyes sparkling. “Oh, Sasha! You won’t believe what happened last night. You’re going to go crazy.”“I can’t wait to find out. What happened?”Caden’s mom places her hand on my knee and leans in. “Remember how I promised to get rid of Vivienne? Guess what happened last night.”“What happened?”Avery jumps in, excited. “Vivienne is gone, Sasha. You don’t have to worry about her anymore. We got her good. She’ll never manipulate Caden again.”Before I can ask how the hell they made that possible, Caden’s mom continues where A

[Vivienne]After Caden leaves, I sit on the floor, trying to understand what I did to deserve this. I can’t believe I slept with that man. I can’t believe I begged him to take me.God, did I really kiss him first? And that too forcefully? Did I really beg him to fuck me?Shit. Why did I do that to myself? Why would any sane woman do that to herself?That just proves that whoever drugged me last night, didn’t use something simple and normal. No. Whatever it was, it was powerful and made me horny as hell.Shit. Caden wasn’t wrong about the unprotected sex. I can still feel his seed in me.There’s a good chance he got me pregnant.Why now? Why would he do this now when I finally want a clean break from him? Why would he make things between us more and more complicated?He’s a monster, that’s why.I sit in the same position, lost in thought. But then I realize I need to do something about this mess, and quickly. I need to find the assholes who drugged me and tried to take advantage of me.

[Vivienne]I head back to my room to grab a few essentials before heading out.On my way, Marcus approaches me with a new phone.He gives me a grin. “Just arrived. I already set it up for you. All you have to do now is add your email address and other details and you’re good to go.”“Thanks, Marcus. You’re a lifesaver.” I take the phone from him and do the needful. It takes more than five minutes but the moment I’m done, I feel like the weight of the world has lifted off my shoulder.“Done!” I say with so much relief that Marcus chuckles.Then he notices me head to toe and frowns. “Are you leaving for somewhere, Ms. Richardson?”“Yes. I have to meet a friend,” I check the time and wince. “And I’m going to be late. Shit!”He chuckles again, and I have to say, he has a cute smile. “Would you like me to be your driver again? Mr. Richardson already asked me to be at your beck and call.”Of course, Dad would do that. Sure, he wants to make sure I’m doing fine, but that’s not the only reaso

[Vivienne]Panic sets in as I see the guns pointed at us. Marcus, still outside the car, looks at me with a mixture of anger and concern. He gestures for me to stay calm.I slowly reach for the door handle, my hands trembling. The men continue shouting, their voices harsh and impatient.“Get out, now!” one of them repeats, banging on the window.I push the door open and step out, my heart pounding in my chest. Marcus moves protectively closer to me, his eyes never leaving the armed men.“What do you want?” Marcus demands, his voice steady but edged with tension.One of the men steps forward, his gun aimed at me. “We don’t want to hurt you. Just come with us quietly, and no one gets hurt.”My mind races, trying to figure out who these men are and why they’ve targeted us. I glance at Marcus, who gives me a slight nod, silently telling me to comply for now.“Fine,” I say, my voice shaking. “Just don’t hurt anyone.”The man nods, seemingly satisfied with my response. “Smart choice.

[Unknown POV]“You didn’t have to come,” the man in the black jacket says, pulling a cigarette from his lips—not that he was smoking in the first place.Some men just love to pretend, I guess.“I need to be sure,” I tell him as I step out of the car, my gaze lifting to the hospital building. “You’re sure they’re here?”“Absolutely,” he says with confidence. “I was the one who called 911.”“You did?” I snap my head toward him, frowning at his audacity. I’m paying him to do the job, not to think. “And why the hell would you do that? I strictly asked for a crash, not a damn rescue.”“But you did say you didn’t want them to die.” He arches a brow, like he knows so much better than me.I roll my eyes. “Well, I couldn’t have cared less either way. I only said that so you wouldn’t screw it up. Killing someone brings a lot more heat than just getting them hurt. And in my personal opinion, men fall apart under pressure.”“Well, not me, clearly,” he shrugs, and I somehow resist the overwhelming

[Vivienne]My feet come to a halt, and I freeze where I am.Did I just… hear that?I can’t even be sure. There’s so much going on in my head that if someone told me I was hallucinating, I wouldn’t even be surprised.The only difference? It doesn’t seem like I am.I know I heard that. And I know, I know that voice.I turn around, brows furrowed, and take another moment just to look at the woman on the bed.“Did you say something?” I ask, slowly walking back to her, curious as to how the hell she knows my name.But the woman is silent once again, the lines on the screen making no different patterns.Maybe I did hallucinate that…I shake my head, ready to leave, when, from the corner of my eye, I notice a small movement of her hand.Her fingers—trying to lift, trying to say something.I move closer to her bed.“Hey.” I reach for her hand, hoping to calm her down. “You’re okay. It’s all going to be okay.”I don’t know if the words coming out of my mouth right now are true or a lie, but sh

[Vivienne]The nurse leads me to the operating theater first but asks me to wait outside.My hands shake as I stare at the door, wondering how Harvey must be doing.How the hell did he get into an accident? Who was the woman with him? Why did he skip work? And what the hell was he doing on the west side of the city? We don’t even have any offices there.That area is basically filled with schools, colleges, and other educational institutes."If you need anything else, I’ll be at the reception," the nurse says, ready to leave and get back to her work.I don’t let her, though.I speak before she can even turn. "How long is it going to take?"She understands what I mean by it—she must face situations like this every day. "Nothing can be said for sure right now. And I understand that waiting feels difficult, especially when your brother is in there. But trust me, the best thing you can do right now is let the doctors do their job. They will tell you everything once they’re done treating yo

I decide to pick up my things from Harvey’s place and head back to our grandparents’ house.It’s the only place where I can think clearly and have some peace to myself.God knows I need a moment to just breathe.So much has happened in a single day—my body and brain both need a well-earned break.When I arrive at his place, Mimi still hasn’t returned from school.Good. Because if she had tried to stop me one more time with those big, adorable eyes, I probably would have changed my mind. That girl has some serious charm. No wonder Harvey can’t resist any of her demands—same goes for my parents.Dad once told me that when he took her to his office—back before he retired—she demanded to play loud pony-themed music and made everyone dance, as if the entire company had thrown a party just for her.Easy to say, the employees couldn’t have asked for a better break—or a better boss.Anyway, I grab my stuff and get back into the car, making sure to leave a text for Harvey so he knows my unexpec

[Vivienne]Once I’m far enough that Avery’s screaming fades into the background, I take a deep breath, trying to calm myself.God knows what’s up with these Lawrences lately. Have they all sworn to make my life hell? To never let me have a moment of peace?I shake my head and push some loose dark curls out of my face.When I return to the table, I find Theo sitting alone.And my anger flares all over again.How could he do this to me? Out of all the women he could have dated, he chose her—the sister of my ex-husband? Did he have no respect for me? Did I not tell him what that family did to me?How could he ignore all of that and fall for a girl who is neither right for him nor anything like him?She’s just like her mother. Like Sasha. Evil. Pure evil.I still remember the day she threw that scorching coffee in my face at the café…Anyway, I take a deep breath and make my way to the table.Theo sees me approaching, and before I can say a word, he stands up, hands braced against the tab

I stare at her, unsure whether to laugh in her face or take her seriously.“End me?” I tip my head to the side, pushing her off me at the same time. “Do you hear yourself? You sound unhinged.”“You think I’m joking?”“Nah, more like you’re trying to be something you’re not.”“You think I can’t hurt you?”I roll my eyes. “Oh, please. You? Hurt me? Avery, you’re a spoiled little brat from a family of professional liars and melodramatic wannabe royals. The only thing you’ve ever ‘ended’ is a shopping spree when Daddy cut you off. So, forgive me if I find it absolutely hilarious that you think you’re some kind of threat.”Avery’s mouth drops open.She probably didn’t expect me to say something like that.I’m not surprised. I was never this sassy in front of Caden’s family. I was good, loyal, and completely dedicated. But instead of appreciating any of it, they always assumed the worst of me.And—shockingly—they still do.Anyway, now that she has nothing to say, I turn to finally get the h

[Vivienne]Avery looks just as surprised to see me.Her eyes widen, and she jolts to her feet, her face slowly turning pale.Theo probably notices her odd reaction, but before he can say anything, Avery quickly grabs my arm and giggles over her shoulder.“You have no idea how long I’ve been waiting for someone to arrive. I desperately need a lady’s help. Be right back!”And with that bizarre excuse, she drags me to the bathroom, shuts the door, and spins to face me—a crown of sweat already glistening on her forehead.“What the fuck are you doing here?” she snaps, glaring at me with those little brown eyes of hers.I raise a brow. “I could ask you the same question, couldn’t I?”“Oh, shut up!”“If that’s what you want.” I turn to leave. If she wants me to shut up, then I’d rather spend my time elsewhere.But of course, she doesn’t let me.She grabs my arm and yanks me back around—hard this time.I hiss and wrench myself free. “Are you crazy? You’re hurting me.”Instead of looking guilt

[Vivienne]When I reach the office building—invited by none other than Theo—I take the elevator to his office.His assistant meets me halfway and leads me inside.Surprisingly, the room is empty.“Sir is stuck in a meeting, but he assured me he’ll be joining you soon. Can I get you anything in the meantime? Juice, coffee, or something to eat?” the assistant asks courteously, a gentle smile on her pretty face.“Just water. Thanks.”She nods and steps out, leaving me alone.I take a deep breath and sink onto the sofa across the room—the only spot where my aching back might find some relief.Just then, I feel a small kick against the side of my swollen belly—a gentle reminder that my little one has started to move.I smile.It’s a feeling I can’t quite put into words.The baby kicks started a few days ago, and God knows I’ve been dying to talk to someone about it. Maybe that’s why I wanted to invite Rosita over or visit Mom—just to share this beautiful news with her.But then Caden showe

[Rosita]I don’t like surprises.Not when they keep me this on edge.Ever since we left my office, Harvey has been as silent as ever. He insisted on driving himself, and when I asked where he was taking me, he told me to have some patience.Well, it seems I don’t have the energy for patience either.“Are you sure you’re not about to push me off a cliff or something?” I ask, crossing my arms over my chest and gazing at the scenery passing by outside the window.I hear him scoff out a small chuckle, the corner of his lips curving ever so slightly. “You have a bizarre sense of humor, you know that?”“You say that like it’s news to you,” I steal a glance at him—his hands gripping the wheel, his gaze steady on the road ahead. He’s always so composed, so frustratingly unreadable.I huff and lean back in my seat. “Are you planning to keep me in suspense forever, or are you actually going to tell me where the hell we’re going?”“Relax, Rosita. We’re almost there.”I don’t like that answer. I
