TAKE ME BACK, DEAR EX WIFE 36. CAROLINE
CAROLINEI ate in silence. The food was tasteless on my tongue. Malcolm had numbed my senses and I couldn't even think straight. That was the most shocking thing I had ever heard in all my life.The nurses knocked before I could say a word. They helped me sit so I could eat and removed the needles from my arm.My stomach chose that time to rumble and they wasted no time in thrusting the food to me, offering to feed me if it was a hassle to feed myself.Malcolm was at one corner of the room, silently watching me eat. I still couldn't find the words to say to him, but I couldn't help thinking that he carried all that burden himself.Once we were alone again, I set the spoon down and looked at him.“What happened to the kids?” My voice was small and quiet.“Emma and Ethan are the only ones left.”My heart broke and I raised my chin to hold his fierce gaze. All I saw was guilt and a broken spirit.“What?” I couldn't even recognize my own voice, I was close to tears.“When they found out I

CAROLINEMother, Father, I've married an older man.His smile sends the bad days away. His touch is like silk and cotton. He smells fresh and young - perhaps that's what makes it so right despite the thirteen years difference. He looks at me like I'm his most prized possession. He showers it all on me- his money, his love, kisses, affection and his dick too. He's never stingy with it- especially the last one.I am… happy. I am… so happy.I was… happy."What do you mean… a divorce?" with each word my voice shook into a whisper as tears blur my vision and teardrops fell onto the papers I held with a tight grip.I lift my head to him causing the tears to roll down my cheek. His serious and pointed look drives my heart further into panic. I wish he would suddenly burst out laughing and tease me that it was only a joke.I won't make him beg too much about pulling a prank too seriously. I'll even suck him off and fuck him back to his senses-- I-I'd take anything… please…?Malcolm sighs and

MALCOLMFLASHBACKI folded my arms in my robes as I watched her set the table. The way her hands fumbled, I could tell she was nervous. She was a hotel staff and she was assigned to my room. The way she moved so fast, I knew she couldn't wait to get out of here."I'm all done, sir," she mumbled and stood aside, keeping her eyes on the floor. I didn't say a word as I took my time staring at her instead. Her black hair was swept over one side of her face, falling on her shoulders and as usual, the brown short sleeve and pants uniform looked beautiful on her body."Caroline," I called her name on a sigh as I loosened my tie. "Why won't you talk to me?" I didn't like her silence. Especially when I knew she had something to say. Her lips were trembling and her eyes were filled with tears. "Come here, Caroline." But I end up moving close to her and grabbing her chin.She tried to look away but I didn't let her and it only made her cry further. Her shoulders trembled as she sobbed and I trie

MALCOLMMy jaw is still hanging loose as I watch her hug Madam Quinn who is wearing a large proud smile. I'm not the only one in shock as Edward is frozen at the scene watching his mother welcome someone else to his rightful position."W-W-What is the meaning of this, mother!" Edward screamed, frowning at them both. "This is ridiculous! Who is she? You only have one grandchild-""Shut up, will you?" Madam Quinn glared at her older son and only son, might I add. I still can't take my eyes off my ex-wife. Her skin is glowing in that red dress, her neck is bedecked with white pearls and beautiful earrings. She screams money and luxury.Her eyes are easy as she stares at Edward with a taunting smile on her lips. When she walks forward, I can't help but take a loud gulp. She has always been sexy but right now, her sexiness exceeded the charts. Even her steps carry grace and class."Uncle Edward," she says much to my surprise and everyone else's. "It's such a pleasure to finally meet you-"

CAROLINEWhy does he stare at me with so much… anger in his eyes and why does it make my heart pound?I stare back, unable to break contact. Those eyes are piercing, enough to have one's feet glued to the floor. His whole face is scowling and I can't pinpoint why.It almost looks like he knows me and has harboured so much hate for a long, very long time.Once the words leave my lips, he's taken by surprise before scowling again as hard as ever and that's when I notice it; his eyes aren't trained at me. They are on my phone.Is it irritation of seeing me again or… jealousy over what I've just said?No, it can’t be the latter.The man staring at me is… handsome. He looks more advanced and even handsome than his photos. His hair has more streaks of grey and there's little to no wrinkles on his face. I would believe him if he said he had Botox done but I know the handsome face I'm staring at hasn't been touched-- unless, of course, by his wife- Louise… that's her name, right?I wouldn't k

MALCOLMThe smirk on her lips doesn't disappear and when she lifts her shoulder in a shrug, that's when I break out of her enchantment. Does she think this is a joke? Weeks of worry that turned into years finally roll into me again and I'm burning with annoyance.I grab her by the shoulder, wishing to desperately lock her up and throw away the fucking keys!How the fuck can she still smile after pulling such a cheap tantrum as that? Feigning memory loss after showing up from her mysterious journey to only God knows where!I can't control my anger but I sure as hell don't grip her too tight. She looks fragile and delicate but when she glances at my hand on her shoulder, she blinks at me with so much class that you'd think she was born for this role."Caroline!" I yell, ignoring the harsh tone of my voice. Contrary to my yell, she doesn't flinch as much as my outburst or even frown. She's watching me with interested eyes, waiting to see what I'd do next.There's something about that loo

CAROLINEI can't get that face out of my head as I go through the rest of the night by my grandmother's side with a smile plastered on my face. I have to wear this smile and act like I don't want to disappear into a hole and hide inside a hole but I've long decided that I'm way past hiding from my problems.I still bear the scars at my back to prove that thanks, grandma."Caroline dear," Madam Quinn says and I turn my neck to give her my attention. She's not looking at me but that doesn't mean she's not seeing me. "You're stiff, dear.'' Her voice is light and humorous with pride and that makes me tense. "What's wrong?""Nothing at all. I guess I'm just a little tired," I lie. "My head is spinning from all the names and faces I've recorded-""Pay attention to every one of them," she interrupts and sets her levelled eyes on the guests around. "You'll need them as well as they'll need you.""Yes, grandmother."Her lips curl in a smile and she's turning to me to grin, "You are one I have

CAROLINE We're pulling over once we get to the mansion and I step down. "Drop Susan back home safely," I tell my driver and my assistant looks at me with worry on her face while I smile back, my default setting as the car drives off. I hear his footsteps before I turn to see him storming towards me. Once he gets closer, he grabs my shoulders and he looks concerned immediately. "Are you alright? Did you get hurt?" Malcolm asks, searching my gaze with worry in his face. His expression is foreign to me and that concern in his voice but I can't lie, they do make him look very good. Now all that's left is for him to drop on his knees crying and pleading for all-- ah, let's not get carried away. I hope my poker face is okay. "I'm fine," I take a step back and his arms fall from my shoulders. I draw in a deep breath, it's hard to catch a break from his touchy hands. "You didn't need to come all the way here," I tell him. "I already called the cops-" "I got here faster," he points out w

MALCOLMThe sound of the gun pierced the hallway but her scream was what made my heart tremble.“Caroline!” I rushed to her side as she collapsed, caught her before she could crumble to the floor and pressed my hand to her side to stop the blood.“Oh my god! Oh my god! Y-You shot a customer,” Emma whispered. “Y-You broke the rules!”“I-I wasn't aiming for her!”Did he just stutter? I turned to the Enforcer and he staggered in his steps. He looked tense, afraid too. His demeanor was completely off and his whole aura was terrified.“She's losing a lot of blood!” Ethan's voice caught my attention and I cupped her face, tears streaming down her wide eyes.“You're gonna be okay. I'll make sure of that. Emma, get the fucking medic to my room right now.” But she didn't move, she was too shaken from the sight of blood and from the situation.“Shit! Ethan! Take Emma out of here and get me a fucking medic now!”He sprung into action, pulling her wrist and dragging her out of the hallway. I gath

CAROLINEDing! The soft sound of the elevator sliced through the thick silence but it wasn't quite enough to pull me out of the shock I'd been thrown in.To think I was divorced on a dare was shocking to hear and almost impossible to believe but the look on Malcolm’s face was confirmation enough.“Well, we hope you're having a wonderful time with Louise. She's a keeper,” he pulled the chains and the girl jerked, groaning in pain.That woke me up.I couldn't get lost in my own past and allow such atrocities to happen right before my eyes.I looked at the girl to find her trembling. Her body was covered with marks and cuts. It was horrifying to look upon. He stepped out of the elevator, holding the chains like he was walking a dog.I moved forward but Malcolm grabbed my wrist and I snapped my head at him.“No,” he warned with a tight jaw and pleading eyes. This wasn't just about her, this was about…“Let go,” I whispered. “She needs help.”“You don't know what you're getting yourself in

MALCOLM“What do you mean by she's at the hotel?” I gripped the wheels and made the next turn. “How did she get in?” My heart drummed twice as much.How the heck did she get in? She wasn't supposed to find out about that place. I made a U-turn as quickly as I could.Louise and Marilyn would just have to wait for when I get back to scold their asses for what they've done.“Where's Ethan and Emma? I want them assigned to her, got it? No one else goes near her, do you understand that?”“Yes, sir. Are you on your way here?”“On high fucking speed, Britney.”It just had to be Patterson! That old bitch couldn't resist sending new souls to the devil's harem. It was a good thing it wasn't a weekend but then that didn't mean there wouldn't be anyone there to see her.“What the fuck are you getting yourself into, Caroline?”I imagined her clueless face filled with horror when she finally realized it wasn't just a normal hotel. There was a reason that the hotel was off the grid. It was the devil

Trigger warning.CAROLINEBe shameless.Have no fear.I played the words over and over as the elevator dinged. I smoothed my hand over my tennis skirt. It was too short in my opinion but it was already too late to get something different.According to them, the “game” was starting.Everyone was playing golf on the field and apparently, I had to participate in something. I couldn't just waltz in here and stay cooped up in my room even if I wanted that.“You're doing great,” Ethan whispered beside me yet his voice was full of humor. Apparently, these two were my personal… uhm… help. Emma had used the word “slave” without a care in this world but I didn't want to refer to them as that.They were human beings.“You'll learn,” was what she said when I opposed her reference to herself. Ethan mentioned to ignore her, she had a weird sense of humor.I folded my skirt in my fist as the elevator dinged and we stepped out. It was still bright outside and the weather seemed great for a sport but

CAROLINE “Cancel my plans for the afternoon, Susan. I have somewhere important to be.” “Miss. Caroline, please don't do anything rash. Also, why are there photos of you leaving the restaurant with the Patterson siblings? Did you… you didn't try to-” I slowed down the car when I got closer to the security check at the big black gate. I could barely even peep inside. The two security guards walked out from their corner and approached my car with a doubting face, glancing at each other as they approached me. “Susan,” I gulped. “I'll call you back. Handle things while I'm away,” I hung up before she could say another word. I was nervous for some reasons. “Deep breaths, deep breaths, Caroline.” One knocked on my window and bent his knees to be on my eye level as I lowered the window. “Wrong way, Miss?” he asked, arching a brow. I looked at the gate and shook my head, “No, no I'm supposed to be here.” His black eyes were sharp and icy. It pricked my skin and goosebumps broke out all
TAKE ME BACK, DEAR EX WIFE 30. CAROLINE
CAROLINEIn a few minutes, Louise and her family were the least of my worries. News came from an unknown source that Malcolm was close to completing his proposal for Miss Patterson. All hands were suddenly on deck as everyone had to race against time and it dragged on for some couple of days thanks to my special uncle trying to make my life a living hell.His team and my team were under so much pressure for the project and he never hesitated to spite my work. He found fault everywhere and would throw it in my face so I ended up doing the same. It was a tug of war every time we settled down for a presentation, trying to know which team came up with the best proposal.At the end of the week, I was drained, tired and sick of him. I wanted to kick it all away and just end things by smashing his head on a wall somewhere.I knew he was trying to frustrate my efforts and it worked. We both knew that Patterson had the final say. She could end up picking Malcolm's project over ours but we wa
TAKE ME BACK, DEAR EX WIFE 29. Malcolm
MALCOLM"She's a fucking bitch and now everyone can see it too. She went there on purpose! That's Marilyn's favourite spot for lunch after school hours. She went there to try and manipulate my poor baby and you're not gonna do anything about it?" Louise rants came through the phone on my desk and I glanced at it and back at my computer where I had something more important to look into."Malcolm!" she screamed. "Are you even listening to me? I can hear you typing!"Jesus Christ! What the heck did this woman want from me? I simply called to make sure Marilyn was in the house safe and sound and that she wasn't being affected by the things on the news but somebody was gatekeeping my own daughter."Would you please give Marilyn the phone now?" I tried again. I was already having a massive headache and her attitude wasn't helping."No," she said firmly. "You're not going to speak to my daughter until you tell me how you'll address this issue-"I hung up."Fuck!" I glanced around my office,

CAROLINE It only took two hours before the Internet was blowing up again. Susan paced back and forth in my office as she stared at her tab.“No, no, no,” she chanted. “Just look at this! This is a disaster.” “Look at what? You won't let me look at the phone." she had confiscated my phone and my laptop. “You've been through a lot in one day,” she said. “You don't need to see any of these stupid things.” “Just hand it over, Susan,” I rolled my eyes from where I sat behind my desk. “I can handle my own mental health.” I believed. How bad could it be? She sighed and succumbed, handing over the tab. “Thank you,” I looked at the first headline and my jaw dropped, “Oh!”I scrolled and scrolled, each headline worse than the last. “Oh my–” “See?” She groaned. “Apparently a reporter caught her outside and decided to hang around, hoping he could get a free shot when he noticed us too. He caught the whole thing.” 'Mistress and Marilyn Collide: York Family Feud Takes Center Stage" 'Yor
