RISING EX WIFE : Love Me Again Mrs Graves Chapter 23
Chapter 23EVA'S POINT OF VIEW Sara's laugh made me weak, it cut through my heart like a dagger, She walked around me like a shark, her mean-girl friends right behind her, all of them looking at me like I was their next meal."Just look at her," Sara said with that mean smile of hers. "Mrs. Maximilian Graves what a joke!"One of her friends laughed. "More like the wife nobody wants. Everyone knows Max can't stand her. How long before he kicks her out?"Their words hit me like punches. I made my hands into fists, trying to stop shaking, but I couldn't. I could barely breathe."For real, Eva," Sara said, trying to sound sweet but really being super mean, "you should be ashamed to show up here. Everyone knows Max only married you because his grandfather made him. Without that, you'd be nothing."Her friends kept giggling like mean little kids.I tried to say something anything but the words got stuck. What was the point? They wouldn't listen anyway."You want to talk?" one of Sara's fri

Chapter 24EVA'S POINT OF VIEW The ballroom sparkled like something from a fairy tale, but I felt anything but magical. My heart felt heavy, like someone had filled it with rocks. Max's grandfather held my arm as we walked through the crowd, and honestly, his grip was the only thing keeping me from running away.Every fake smile I gave made my face hurt. Every laugh felt wrong in my throat. Sara's mean words from earlier kept playing in my head like a bad song you can't forget. I couldn't stop thinking about how she'd cornered me with her friends, how they'd laughed at me, how small they'd made me feel.I kept doing what everyone expected smiling, nodding, being the perfect wife. But inside? I was screaming. It's funny how you can be in a room full of people and still feel so alone. That's not how marriage should be. It should feel safe, warm, like coming home. Instead, it felt like I was drowning, and nobody could see me going under.I spotted Max across the room, talking to some bu

Chapter 25EMILY (SARA'S MOTHER) POINT OF VIEW I just left Sara's room, and my heart feels like it's breaking into a million pieces. These big fancy mansion walls they're so cold and empty, just like Williams' heart. I can still hear my baby girl crying in there. Each sob feels like someone's stabbing me in the chest. I tried to shut the door real quiet, but in this silent hallway, it seemed so loud.My poor Sara cried herself to sleep tonight. Her face was all wet with tears, her eyes all puffy and red. And why? All because of that awful Eva. Just thinking about her makes my blood boil. How dare she? How dare anyone make my beautiful, smart Sara feel so small?Standing here in this dark hallway, all these old memories come rushing back. They hit me like a tidal wave, and I can't stop them. Maybe I don't want to stop them. Sometimes the past is what keeps you going, you know?I remember when I was younger, back when I still had stars in my eyes and big dreams in my heart. I'd just fi

Chapter 26 EVA POINT OF VIEW The familiar scent of coffee fills my nose as I sit across from Sally my best friend at our favorite coffee shop,the one we always go to, and something just doesn't feel right today. Even though everything looks exactly the same, you know, the coffee smell that's always in the air, people talking and laughing all around us, and even that one super nice barista who never forgets to draw those cute little hearts in everyone's coffee foam I just can't shake this awful feeling in my chest. But I feel like I'm drowningI keep looking down at my coffee cup. Like, really looking at it, as if maybe if I stare at it long enough, it'll tell me what to do with my mess of a life. But nope. It just sits there getting colder and colder, just like everything else in my life right now. I must have stirred it about a million times by now, watching the liquid go round and round and round.Sally keeps giving me these looks. You know the kind those worried best friend look

Chapter 27 EVA'S POINT OF VIEWI can't stop shaking as I kneel next to Max's grandfather. He's just lying there on that fancy rug he loved so much, and nothing feels real anymore. Everything around me is all blurry, and my heart is beating so loud in my ears it's like a drum. The house is so quiet it's scary, which makes all the crazy thoughts in my head seem even louder. How did this happen? How did my life turn into this nightmare?"Grandpa?" My voice comes out all wobbly and small as I lean in closer to him. My hand is just floating there above his chest, like it's afraid to touch him. I keep blinking, trying to make my brain understand what I'm seeing. He was always so full of life, you know? His eyes used to have this special sparkle whenever he was being strict but kind at the same time. But now? Those same eyes are just... empty. They're staring up at nothing, and I can barely see them through all my tears.I finally make myself press my hand against his chest, desperately try

Chapter 28 Eva's Point of ViewYou know that feeling when your whole world is about to come crashing down? That's exactly how it felt when Max looked at me, his eyes burning with an anger I'd never seen before. Max's voice cut through that awful silence."Eva, what have you done?"God, those words. They hit me like a truck, leaving me gasping for air. I stumbled backward, my hands trembling. How could he even think I'd do something like this? After everything we'd been through together?"I didn't do anything," I managed to whisper through my tears. My mascara was probably running down my face, but I couldn't care less. "Max, please... you have to believe me. I swear I didn't...""Look at him, Eva!" He was screaming now, pointing at his grandfather's body lying between us like some horrible nightmare come to life. "He's dead! You're standing here covered in his blood, and you expect me to believe you didn't do this?"My heart felt like it was being ripped apart. This wasn't just abou

# Chapter 29Max's Point of ViewYou know that feeling when your whole world falls apart? Not the slow kind of falling apart, like when a relationship dies bit by bit, but the sudden kind that hits you like a truck? That's what happened to me that day.I couldn't stop staring at Eva on the floor. She was crying so hard her whole body was shaking. Her makeup was running down her face in black streaks, and her hands... God, her hands were still covered in his blood. My grandfather's blood.As I stared at Eva, collapsed on the floor, her body wracked with sobs, my mind replayed the events that had led me here. My fists clenched, and I struggled to hold back the whirlwind of emotions that threatened to consume me.. I was sitting at my desk at work, going through some boring paperwork, when my phone buzzed. Unknown number. Usually, I ignore those calls, but something made me pick up this time. Maybe it was fate, maybe it was just bad luck."Mr. Grave?" A woman's voice, all shaky and scare

Chapter 30EVA'S POINT OF VIEW My whole world is falling apart.The police sirens are getting louder and louder, like they're screaming just for me. I can't stop shaking. I'm still on the floor, and it's so cold down here, but I can't seem to make myself get up. Everything's spinning around me like one of those carnival rides that make you sick.Every time I close my eyes, even for a second, I see grandpa Lucas lying there. God, there was so much blood. My hands are still covered in it, I tried to save him, I really did. But now that blood is like proof of something I didn't do, and I can't wash it away.Max is standing across the room, and it's killing me. He looks like a stranger now. His face is all hard and angry, like someone carved it out of stone. How can he look at me like that? After everything we've been through together?"Eva." The way he says my name... it's like he's spitting out something gross. "How could you?"My throat feels so tight it hurts. "Max, please," I beg hi

RISING EX WIFE : Love Me Again Mrs Graves Chapter 100
Chapter 100Maximilian’s Point of ViewThe air in the boardroom felt thick and heavy, pressing down on me like an invisible weight. The tension was almost unbearable, crackling in the silence like a storm waiting to break. I sat at the head of the long oak table, my fingers gripping the armrests of the chair tightly, trying to steady myself. Around the table, familiar faces stared back at me, their expressions a mix of doubt and suspicion. These were people I had worked with for years, individuals who once respected my decisions, trusted my leadership. Now, their eyes held something else judgment.I took a deep breath, but it did little to ease the discomfort in my chest. The room seemed colder than usual, the sharp scent of polished wood mingling with the faint aroma of coffee cups left untouched on the table. The faint hum of the air conditioning was the only sound breaking the silence, and even that felt intrusive.“Mr. Graves,” one of the senior board members, Harold Whitman, bega

Chapter 99Max’s Point of ViewThe muffled hum of the city outside my office was a stark contrast to the suffocating silence within. I sat behind my desk, staring at the sprawling view of the skyline, but my mind was consumed by the chaos of the morning.The memory of the reporters, their voices like daggers, still clung to me. Their accusations echoed in my mind, each one sharper than the last. My fists tightened against the cool wood of the desk. No matter how absurd their claims were, they had planted a seed of doubt in the public’s mind, tarnishing everything I’d worked to build.A knock on the door snapped me from my thoughts. “Come in,” I barked, my voice harsher than I intended.My secretary, Maria, stepped inside, her usual composed demeanor faltering. She held a tablet in her hands, her expression tense. “Sir, I thought you should see this.”“What now?” I growled, leaning back in my chair as she approached.Maria placed the tablet on my desk, her fingers trembling slightly. “

Chapter 98Max’s Point of ViewThe flash of cameras hit my eyes the moment I stepped out of my car. The usual buzz of morning traffic was drowned out by the chaotic frenzy of reporters swarming outside the company gates. A sea of microphones and questioning voices surged toward me, their questions sharp and relentless.“Mr. Graves, is it true you and Sara conspired to kill your grandfather?” one voice shouted, cutting through the noise.“Do you have any comments on the evidence emerging that implicates you in the murder?” another chimed in.My jaw clenched, my hand tightening on the strap of my briefcase as I fought to keep my expression neutral. The accusations were absurd, yet the weight of their words struck something deep within me—a mix of anger, disbelief, and the faintest twinge of fear.“Mr. Graves! Is the recent media rise linked to you framing eva as the culprit for your grandfather death?” a third voice demanded, forcing me to pause mid-step.I turned sharply, my glare enou

Chapter 97Eva’s Point of ViewThe soft clink of glass meeting wood was the only sound in my office as I leaned back in my chair, a faint smile playing on my lips. The dim lighting cast a golden hue over the room, reflecting off the crystal decanter on my desk. Beside it sat two half-filled glasses of wine.“Cheers to a small victory,” I said, raising my glass toward Josh, who lounged on the couch across from me.Josh gave a wry grin, his eyes crinkling at the corners as he raised his glass in response. “Small? I’d say this was a significant blow to them.” He took a sip, his gaze fixed on me with a mixture of admiration and curiosity. “You’re playing this game better than I expected, Eva.”I took a slow sip of the rich, crimson wine, letting its warmth spread through me. “It’s not about playing the game, lJosh,” I replied, setting the glass down gently. “It’s about justice. About proving the truth.”Josh arched an eyebrow, leaning forward slightly. “And you think the public turning ag

Chapter 96Sara’s Point of ViewThe silence in the room was deafening, broken only by the soft hum of the air conditioner. My mother paced the floor with the ferocity of a caged lioness, her heels clicking against the hardwood with each sharp step. Her face, usually a mask of icy composure, was twisted in fury, her eyes blazing with unrestrained anger.“I have never,” she hissed, pausing mid-step to glare at the space as if her words could strike down an unseen foe, “been humiliated like that in my entire life.”She spun around, facing me. “Do you know what it feels like, Sara? To be reduced to nothing in front of the entire world? To have everything you’ve worked for trampled on because of someone else’s incompetence?”Her voice rose with each word, cutting through the air like a whip. I flinched but kept my gaze steady, though my heart pounded in my chest.“It’s not my fault,” I muttered, my voice barely above a whisper.“Not your fault?” she repeated, her tone dripping with disbeli
RISING EX WIFE : Love Me Again Mrs Graves Chapter 95
Chapter 95Sara’s Point of ViewThe dim glow of the television filled the room, the sharp voice of the news anchor cutting through the silence like a knife. I sat on the edge of the sofa, my hands clenched tightly in my lap as each damning word echoed in the air around me. Beside me, my mother’s face was a pale mask of fury, her lips pressed into a thin line as her sharp eyes flickered between the screen and Maximilian.He stood by the window, his broad back turned to us, his posture as rigid as the tension in the room. The world outside was still, a stark contrast to the storm raging inside the estate.The anchor’s voice carried on, relentless and unforgiving.“Maximilian Graves, the celebrated CEO, is under fire for allegedly protecting his mistress, Sara Brown, from facing the consequences of her actions. Public outrage continues to grow, with many accusing the duo of conspiring to frame Eva Brown, Maximilian’s estranged wife and Sara's Step-sister, in a bid to strip her of her inh
RISING EX WIFE : Love Me Again Mrs Graves Chapter 94
Chapter 94 Sara’s Point of ViewThe first sound that registered was the shattering of glass. A bottle, hurled by one of the crowd, smashed against the pavement near my feet, sending shards flying. My pulse raced as fear clawed at me, and I instinctively flinched, shielding my face with trembling hands. The jeers and insults continued, a relentless tide of rage that refused to ebb.“Traitors! Murderers!”“You thought you could get away with it?”The words stung like a thousand needles, each one embedding itself deeper into my skin. My mother’s grip on my arm was iron-like, her nails digging in as she tried to keep me upright.“Keep walking,” she hissed through gritted teeth, her voice unsteady. “Don’t give them the satisfaction.”But how could I? The world had turned against us. Every face in the crowd was twisted with contempt, their eyes gleaming with righteous fury. I felt naked under their gaze, exposed and vulnerable in a way I never had been before.Another projectile a crushed
RISING EX WIFE : Love Me Again Mrs Graves Chapter 93
Chapter 93Sara’s Point of ViewThe morning air was thick with tension, as if the universe itself knew what awaited us beyond the front door. I glanced at my mother, her face set in a mask of forced composure. Her sharp features, so similar to mine, gave no hint of the storm brewing within. But I knew her too well. Behind that calm facade was a woman just as shattered as I was.“They’ll be out there,” I murmured, my voice hoarse from a night of restless tears.Mom adjusted her scarf, her movements measured and deliberate. “Let them. We’ve faced worse than a few cameras.”Her words, meant to reassure, felt hollow. We hadn’t faced worse not like this. This wasn’t just scandal; this was public crucifixion.I tightened my grip on the handle of my purse, my knuckles white. “Maybe we should wait. Let this die down.”Mom scoffed, her lips curling into a bitter smile. “Wait for what? For them to get bored? They won’t. Scandals like ours don’t just fade, Sara. They fester.”Her words stung bec

Chapter 92Josh’s Point of ViewThe silence in my office was heavy, broken only by the soft rustle of Eva moving around as she grabbed the first aid kit from the shelf. My face stung, the bruise on my cheekbone throbbing where Max had landed his punch. But the pain didn’t matter. Not when Eva was standing here, her presence like a soothing balm on my frayed nerves.“Sit,” she commanded, her voice firm but gentle. She pulled a chair closer to me, her eyes scanning my face for injuries.I obeyed, leaning back as she opened the kit and pulled out some antiseptic. Her touch was careful, deliberate, as she dabbed a cotton ball against the cut near my eyebrow.“You didn’t have to step in like that,” I said, my voice low.Her hands paused for a fraction of a second before resuming. “Yes, I did. Max had no right to treat you or anyone like that.”My jaw tightened at the mention of his name. “He doesn’t deserve you, Eva. Not now, not ever.”She sighed, her expression softening as she focused o
