REBIRTH; Ex-wife's Revenge After Divorce CHAPTER 17
Ruby's POV. I could feel it.something was definitely up. Give you everything? Over my dead body. I would never hand over my company to him, not in a million years.“Why do you want it?” I asked, keeping my voice steady, though my patience was wearing thin.He went silent, his face unreadable as he stood there, clearly searching for the right words. I watched him, waiting, though each second of silence made my irritation grow. Finally, I turned away, deciding I didn’t care to hear his answer. I walked to my wardrobe, pulling out my night dress, already done with this pointless conversation.Just then, his voice cut through the quiet. “I’m supposed to have the company. I’m a man,” he said, his tone almost entitled.I froze, feeling a wave of anger and disgust rise up inside me. Because you’re a man? He actually believed he deserved the company that I had worked so hard to build,something I had poured my heart and soul into.Without turning around, I spoke, my voice cold and firm. “

Ruby's POV. “Yeah, that’s what I thought. You’ve made a good decision,” Logan said, a smug smirk spreading across his face.A good decision? My blood boiled at his arrogance. I would never let him take my company, no matter how convincing he tried to sound. I stared at him, my face a mask of calmness, refusing to give him the satisfaction of knowing my true feelings.“So let’s get things done,” Logan added, his tone casual, as if he were discussing something as simple as the weather.Get what done? Did he really believe I would let him sign a contract and hand over everything I had worked so hard for? I stood there, glaring at him in silence, my thoughts racing.Suddenly, an idea flashed in my mind, igniting a spark of hope and mischief within me. I couldn’t help but smile as I pictured how this could turn out in my favor. It was a risky plan, but if it worked, it would put me back in control.Logan frowned slightly, clearly puzzled by my sudden change in demeanor. “What are you s

Ruby's POV. “I… I…” Sophie stammered, her voice barely above a whisper.Her lips trembled as she struggled to form the words, but nothing coherent came out. A slow, satisfied smile spread across my face. This,this was exactly what I had been waiting for. Everything had unfolded perfectly, and Sophie had walked right into my trap, just as I had planned.My grandmother’s face was etched with deep worry, her brows knitted together as she glanced from Sophie to me. Her frail hand trembled slightly in mine, and I gave it a reassuring squeeze, silently telling her I had everything under control.Sophie still stood there, rooted to the spot, her eyes wide with shock and confusion. The silence in the room stretched, heavy and suffocating.“Look at what you’ve done!” I suddenly shouted, my voice cutting through the stillness like a blade. Without thinking, I surged forward and slapped Sophie across the face, the sound of the impact echoing in the tense room.She staggered back, clutching

Sophie's POV. I fell hard onto the cold floor, my cheek stinging from the slap Logan had just given me. For a moment, I was too shocked to even breathe. He had actually hit me. I couldn’t believe it. My face was hot with pain, and my mind raced, trying to understand what just happened.All because of that stupid contract. Something I hadn’t even touched or ruined. But Logan didn’t care. He blamed me anyway. When I looked up, I saw Ruby staring at us, her eyes wide with surprise, and even my grandma was frozen, unable to hide her shock.“You hit me over this worthless contract?!” I yelled, my voice shaking with anger and hurt. Logan glared down at me, his eyes filled with fury. “This is your fault! How could you be so careless, Sophie?” he shouted, his voice full of blame.I glanced over at Ruby again, and her expression had changed. She was smiling now, a small, twisted smile. She looked almost happy to see me like this, crumpled on the ground and broken. Seeing her smile made m

Ruby's POV.“Sign the divorce papers,” Logan threw the divorce papers at me with a sharp, dismissive gesture. The papers fluttered through the air before landing on my lap. I sat there in my wheelchair, feeling a deep, unsettling shock. “You know I don’t appreciate this kind of joke,” I said, trying to laugh, but my voice trembled. It was a special day; how could he be so cruel as to end our marriage now?“This isn’t a joke,” Logan’s voice was harsh and cold. “Just sign the damn papers. It’s over between us.”As I looked up at him, the coldness in his eyes hit me like a punch to the gut. He wasn’t kidding; he was serious. “Stop staring at me with that pitiful look and just sign it,” Logan’s tone was icy, his words cutting through the room. His detachment and finality left me numb, struggling to grasp how everything had happened so quickly.“It’s our fourth wedding anniversary,” I said, my voice breaking as my heart raced uncontrollably. “You can’t do this. You can’t just divorce me

Ruby's POV."Can't you hear me?" Sophie asked, her voice carrying a mix of frustration and worry.I was still grappling with confusion, trying to piece together what was happening. My last clear memory was a blur of pain and despair; dying because of Logan and Sophie. But now, everything felt strangely altered, as if I had been transported to another reality."Why am I wearing a wedding dress?" I wondered, my mind racing. I wasn't dreaming was I? I thought briefly and just then, I thought of one possible chance; REBIRTH!Sophie’s voice broke through my spiralling thoughts again. “Hello?”I blinked, trying to focus on her face, which seemed to be filled with a blend of concern and urgency. My heart raced as I stammered, “What year is this?” My voice was tinged with panic, and I could feel my eyes widening in disbelief.Sophie’s gaze remained fixed on me as she moved closer. She knelt beside me, her face inches from mine, and gently placed her hand on my forehead. Her touch was warm a

Ruby's POV.“Are you going crazy or something? You want to take revenge on the man you just married?” Julian’s irritation was evident as he reacted to my proposal.“That’s not the point,” I replied firmly. “I want to know if you’re willing to get revenge or if you prefer to watch your company collapse in the next three years.”Julian looked increasingly perplexed, clearly struggling to understand my offer. All I wanted was for us to work together.“How would you know what will happen in the next three years?” he asked, his voice tinged with scepticism.“That’s not important right now,” I said, emphasising my urgency. “Just join forces with me so you don’t lose your company.”He seemed to be weighing my words, his silence suggesting deep contemplation. I could see the conflict in his expression.“I’m sorry, I can’t,” he finally muttered, shaking his head as he began to turn away.Desperate not to lose this chance, I reached out and grabbed his hand, halting him in his tracks.“I know h

Ruby's POV.I stood by the window, sipping my coffee and gazing out at the world outside. The frustration was building inside me, especially since Logan hadn’t even checked on me the previous night.The more I thought about it, the more I felt frustrated by him. Even after our wedding, he hadn’t cared about how I was doing. Instead, he was busy cheating on me with Sophie.“Oh Ruby, how could you have been so naive in your past life? I need to be smarter this time to avoid falling victim again,” I muttered to myself.My phone buzzed, pulling me from my thoughts. I picked it up and read the message: “Grandma wants to see you.” The reminder hit me hard; Grandma was still alive now.I felt a pang of longing for her, remembering how much I missed her after her death; planned by Logan and Sophie.“Those heartless bastards. I won’t let you hurt her again,” I declared with determination.I quickly dressed, eager to leave, but as I was heading out, I ran into Logan, who was alone in the living

Ruby's POV. “What is this?” I managed to ask, my voice barely steady.My heart pounded as I stared at the receipt, my name printed clearly at the top. Why was my name there? I didn’t make that payment. I hadn’t arranged for any of this, especially since the car was supposed to crush me up first, not Julian. None of this made any sense.I glanced over at Julian, hoping for some kind of sign, something that might explain this strange mix-up. But he looked just as confused, his eyes narrowing as if he was trying to piece together a puzzle with missing pieces.He might think I planned it all. And worse, he might think I had something to do with the accident. My stomach twisted. Julian didn’t remember anything about that night, so what was he supposed to think now?Just then, the driver’s voice broke into my thoughts, sharp and accusing. “You’re not going to lie now, are you?” he sneered, a smug look on his face.I felt my blood boil. I shot him a cold, hard glare that could cut throu

Julian's POV“Sophie!” Ruby shouted, her voice filled with fear as she saw the metal flying toward us.In a split second, Ruby pushed me aside, trying to shield me from the projectile. But I couldn’t just stand back and let her take the hit. My instincts kicked in, and I ran forward, throwing myself in front of her just as the metal struck.The impact hit my back hard, a sharp pain searing through me. I winced, feeling a wave of agony ripple across my skin. Thankfully, it missed the spot where I was already injured, but the pain was still enough to make me gasp. I clenched my teeth, fighting to hold back a cry as I tried to endure the hurt.“Julian!” Ruby exclaimed, her eyes wide with alarm as she turned to me. The worry on her face was palpable, and I could see the panic rising within her.She noticed my pain, and it tore at my heart to see her so frightened. I wanted to reassure her, to tell her I was okay, but the words caught in my throat. Instead, all I could do was hold my b

Julian's POV"It's not a crime to be here before you," Ruby said to Sophie, her voice steady but her smile clearly forced.I watched as Ruby tried hard to keep that fake smile on her face. It was obvious we were going to have to act like we came here just for the party, even though something darker hung in the air.Logan’s eyes locked on me, and I couldn’t quite read the look on his face, but it was intense. His brow furrowed deeply, and I knew he was wondering why I was here. His confusion was clear, but so was something else,something heavier.“I thought you didn’t want to come?” Logan asked, his voice louder than it needed to be. He wasn’t even looking at Ruby when he said it. His eyes stayed glued to me, sharp and piercing, like he was trying to figure me out or see through me.The way Logan stared at me was enough to make the hair on the back of my neck stand up. I could feel his hatred,thick and heavy, almost suffocating. It wasn’t just in his eyes, it was in the way he stood

Julian's POV“It’s an important occasion, and I have to attend it!” I insisted, my voice firm as I explained to Dr. Smith.I had been begging him for what felt like hours now, pleading with him to let me go. But he remained unmoved, his expression serious, as he continued to insist that I couldn’t leave the hospital yet.All I could think about was Ruby. The thought of being there for her, helping her, was consuming me. I had already rented the hall, made all the arrangements, and told my assistant to go get her this morning. Everything was set, but the one thing that kept me from being there was this damn hospital bed.I couldn’t even remember what my old self had discussed with Ruby before, but that didn’t matter. All that mattered now was being close to her. This was my chance,a second chance I never thought I’d get. I wouldn’t let it slip away. Not this time.“Please, doctor. It’s urgent!” I pleaded, my voice stronger now, frustration mixing with desperation.Dr. Smith shook hi

Ruby's POV. "Why is he staring at me with that smile? This isn’t like him at all," I thought to myself, feeling my confusion grow. Julian never looked at me like this before, except for yesterday and it was hard to read his face, like he was holding back something.“You’ll need this,” I said quietly, handing Julian his phone. My eyes were still searching his face, trying to figure him out.“Why don’t you go home and get ready for tomorrow? I’ll send my assistant to pick you up,” he mumbled, his voice calm but distant.Pick me up? From my house? My thoughts raced. But he’s never been to my house before. Is he going to ask for my address now?I stood there, waiting, almost holding my breath, expecting him to ask for my address. But nothing. He didn’t say a word about it, like he already knew. My chest tightened with unease, but I tried not to let it bother me too much.Maybe because Logan is his cousin, Julian already knows where I live? I mean, since Logan and I were both married. I
