THE CEO IS MY EX HUSBAND EPISODE 21
hayle.“You're what now?!.” I asked, taken far by surprise as my lips parted open and my jaws hung ajar.“Stop talking like I asked you to be a stand-in wife. It's anything if sports; all I'm saying is something quite simple, nothing too much. I'm having a family dinner, and you have to be present as my fiance. Is there anything wrong with that? You owe me, don't you, and I sure as hell have other options. We can bail on the dinner,” he asked, staring intensely at me.I realized he was right. I had caused a scene by yelling and made a total fool of myself. What was I even thinking, talking about things like that and the like? I was a fool, and I knew it already. I was so desperate to visit Mary.“I'm sorry, it just sounded somehow. A little odd, you know, with everything going on and”“hayle , I would plead with you not to make wrong assumptions henceforth; I told you that chapter is closed, and now it's nothing but progression; either way, I understand if I and you feel in any way co

Alex“You can walk?” Father asked. I could see the surprise in his eyes as he spoke; he had not expected it, I made sure not a single track was left. I had him exactly where I wanted. I nodded slowly. “Yes, as a matter of fact, I've been able to walk for a while now. I Had the doctor kept it discreet, he would of course have told you about my progress if you'd asked, but I guess you were too busy with other things to worry about your crippled son.” I explained sure enough that the words were shot towards him like daggers.He seemed ashamed after hearing my words; he averted his gaze from me, but I didn't flinch by a bit; I wasn't worried about what his outcome might be. So long as I had all that I wanted, and things were fine so far. “Goodness, this is coming as a surprise to me, Alex , and I've been really busy. I expected him to reach out to me if anything came up. I have failed in that aspect, but tell me, why put yourself through the stress of Wheeling back and forth when you

Hayle 'S POV.It's been days already yet nothing sensible had happened, apart from the fact that he was indeed alive, nothing else new to me.my search for him was futile The first woman I had hired turned out to be half of the money that had been sent to her before I realized.As soon as I demanded results or at least proof of work, she blocked me. I had not reached out to her; I did more research and hired a new person who had found out that Alex was indeed alive, but his location wasn't accessible at the moment.A lot of this money had been drained; I had just a little left, and at this point I wouldn't even be able to find Alex if I was spending the last dime I had on the private investigator.A call settled in, and I raised my eyes slowly to see it was Giovani. Ever since he got me a phone, he kept calling me around, even the most basic. I couldn't just shove him off, could I? He has been helpful to me in a lot of ways.Only little could be done. I swallowed hard, picking up h

Giovanni.A loud squeal of laughter eased through my lips on hearing her words. I rested into a chair before kicking up my feet, laughing hard at whatever joke she seemed to be trying so hard to make.“Common now, Hayle , be for real, why are you here?” I asked again. After taking a long amount of time to laugh in her face, she held a right and diem trip to the hem of her dress before swallowing hard.“I don't get it; what exactly do you think I'm here for? Jokes?” Ahr asked, getting quite uneasy, and just then did I realize she seemed to be serious about whatever silky requests it was that she intended to make.“Oh, this isn't a joke? Are you serious? I'm expected to throw twenty-five thousand us down the decking drain for your mom? What makes you think I'll do such a stupid thing?” I asked, but she said nothing. Maybe she had a lot on her mind at the moment; it was just being curious in her speech. I wasn't entirely sure what the problem was about, but to see how she was bradley thi

Alex.My eyes remained pinned amongst the crowd waiting outside. I scanned through very carefully; my father had said that as soon as I got out of the airport there would be a man waiting for me.And it was just like he had stated, a man was indeed waiting, his eyes lingering in my wheelchair with a look tickled with irritation. “Mr Alex?” He called out to me, and I nodded with a smile, determined to keep calm and act foolish for as long as I possibly could; getting all wrapped up in their talks and acts wasn't something that I wanted.“You caught a quick glance of me; I was worried I would miss you,” I responded, feigning ignorance to the curt manner in which he had spoken.“Well, there aren't many disabled people in wheelchairs now, are there?” He asked once again before walking away from me,I said nothing else after him, drawing up a plan in my mind. My father has asked me to come down here to handle important business, but seeing how the driver who had been assigned to me only m

HAYLE S POV I laid on my side. My eyes wide opened in the complete darkness; it wasn't like I had many options to it; as a matter of fact, I was just as helpless; my sanity was teetering on the edge, and my hope and thoughts on how to save my mother kept dwindling. There was nothing that could be done; I was weak and hopeless, but most of all, seeing how things had begun unfolding these past few days really did bother me. Was I entirely sure I wanted a child born into situations like this? Where I couldn't even afford to get his drugs, of course I wasn't lazy; I would work several jobs, odd or part-time if I couldn't find office work, but then what were the long term plans on how to afford the bills and get myself together, sending a child to school?Besides, would it ever be safe in a country where the maniac Giovanni stayed?I couldn't risk the odds, that as much as I hoped Giovanni would some day wake up and grow bored of me or have no interest, none of it was happening, and a

HAYLE's POV.“This is bad, really bad.” I muttered beneath my breath, my eyes scanning through the files in my hands, and my palms became sweaty while I was struck by a sudden migraine.I ran my hands to my hair right after slamming the documents into the table.“What have you been up to? What exactly have you been doing?” I asked, yet their silence infuriated me more; it seemed almost as if they were pleased to see me in such distress.“I have a deadline to hold in less than a day, and you all bring this missing file and find missing reports for me. What have you been up to all week? Even a day before, how am I to present to the board new product ideas when the entire fund for the project has been looted from scratch?” I asked again.I wasn't pleased with their stares, and I fidgested, air narrowing down my lungs, I loosened the top button on my shirt.“Should we tell Mr. alex ?” The head of finance is required,My stone-cold glare passed across to him and probably rang a bell in hi

ALEX's POV.“What happened next?” I asked, my phone glued to my ears while I pranced back and forth down the halls. I swallowed hard, reeling in every thought of how the entire scenario could have played out.“Mr Alex ?” She called out my name. I could imagine her seated against her balcony, the laptop on her table, her feet crossed while she leaned into the armchair, her phone strapped to her ears."Yes, Hayle, you did a good job, and I'll be sure to commend you for it. I'm happy about the progress. I knew you were the perfect one for the job. Imagine if I never had you in charge of what would have happened.” I asked meekly, a faint smile on my face, before I punched myself on the couch.“Nothing else? That's all?” She asked out of sheer curiosity. I missed her. With each word she said, I pictured it in my head. My eyes were pressed firm, and her soothing voice rang like music to my ears. “What else is it that I should know about? Any other problems!?” I asked him, half-mindedly, on

The heavy downpour of tears didn't stop as they streaked continuously over her cheeks. Pain and guilt arched at her heart.

She acted out on impulse, as one could say, but that was not the only thing that bothered.She had a crush on Alex, and she was not sure why he was no longer running after her.

Hayle stared out into the night; maybe for a couple of hours, she had her mind lifted off certain burdens, all thanks to Juliet who had accompanied her.She glanced down at her side with a smile on her lipsJuliet was fast asleep; unlike her, she couldn't get herself a good night's rest.If anything, it bore her more than enough. She was restless and maybe angry, but for all she knew, there were other things she needed to bring together.Weak and tired, she needed a little bit of peace and quiet. It felt like much was done or could be done; all she needed was her mind set free.She slipped out of the room, slowly heading towards the balcony, but then remembered that she had previously passed out there and slept in the cold till the next day. Goosebumps. swarmed into her, she freed herself up to the conclusion that was not by any means the route for her.She stood in her tracks, her head tilted a bit while she pondered hard about what to do. With a single thought lit up on her mind s

None of Alex's words made any sense to Hayle; how could her womb vanish into thin air? Why was he looking so serious? Was that meant to be a prank for her? Womb don't just get off one's body."Is this the part where I laugh?” Hayle asked curiously, flashing her bright set of teeth towards Alex, who was taken aback by her attitude. Sure as hell, she had her way, but he had his as well, and he was way more determined than anything else to handle the situation as best as he could, but she was not going to help anyone at all.“I'm sorry,” she whispered under low tones and tried standing on her feet. The first thing she felt was a throbbing headache and an insane urge to retch.“This isn't funny anymore, Alex. What's going on?” She asked again, seemingly confused as her vision was a little blurry.“Here, I'll help.'' Alex added in as he made his way towards her swiftly, running his fingers across her eyes and slowly pushing up in place before helping her back in bed."Hayle, this is a jo

HayleHayle parted her slowly and glanced through her environment. Things seemed different for a moment, and the first thing that stuck with her was the vague emptiness that she felt, followed by quite a migraine that took place in her mind. What exactly was wrong? Why had she felt like something important was missing from her?.She glanced around, and the surroundings seemed familiar; it wasn't her room. But it looked oddly close. The first memory that shook her mind was collapsing by the balcony, cold and lonely, scared for her life, worried that no one would find her as people hardly entered or passed through there.She heard the creaking of a door, and the first thing she had done was close her eyes shut, firmly and tight, yet she found it really strange; she could not have picked up the footsteps approaching until she shut her eyes closed.“What's wrong with me?” She questioned herself yet said nothing. “I can tell you are awake; why bother pretending?” Alex asked as he leaned c

Hayle.The cold wind blew harshly against my skin. I circled up my toes and tilted my head a bit.It was odd; why did it look so familiar? Emerging from the room, the scent that filled my nostrils, I stretched my legs slowly and raised my head with a louder yawn.My eyes moved over to the balcony, and it made me really bothered. Why was I in a situation like this? It made me sick to my stomach as I realized I was no longer taken.“awake?” his voice covered around me, I tilted my head, In the direction the words came, as I shook slowly yet carefully, panic shocking at my sides,“Why am I here?” I asked, the words easing off my throat bitterly. I felt an uneasiness within me, and I pushed myself slowly towards the end of the bed.“Stop; you need to remain in bed; you aren't fully healed yet.” He complained even when I barely felt anything different within me.“some joke?” I asked, my gaze on his while he rolled his eyes in response.“What exactly is your deal? Why did you come up with

Hayle’s POV.A knock settled on my door, sending jolts down my spine as I glanced up. I dragged my feet in the direction it came from; it seemed more like what could be done by Sandra. I dragged my feet reluctantly towards the don't and pushed it open, but to my surprise, it was Ethan.“Good morning, still asleep?” he asked. I shook my head, a faint smile against my lips. I could not really tell him much. It was probably not the best thing expected of me, especially given the fact that I had spent all my night thinking about Alex.“No, you didn't wake me; I had been a little tired from the journey; sleep didn't come easily.” I responded to his questions, although he seemed a little tense and worried.“May I come in then?” he asked, and I nodded, pushing the door wider apart for him to walk in.“I'm sorry, my manners are a little terrible. What's wrong? You don't look so good.” I asked on the spot, fighting hard to have my senses all intact.“Do you like it here, Hayle? Do you like be

AlexI rolled around in bed, my mind coupled up with her thoughts, I found it hard to sleep,My eyes darted over to the huge wall clock in the centre of the room, the seconds ticking slowly, that sound suddenly became louder for me to bear, sounded nothing better than torture.I sat up before putting on my shirt. It was seventeen minutes past three in the morning. It's been more than two hours since I retired to bed, fussing about and turning to no avail.“stop acting like it isn't your fault, why do you always have to make decisions that I'll take the pain for?” my asked, ranging unnecessarily, I sighed before blocking him off the mind link when he had put up with a fight…he was right, I've been imposing my decision on him lately.Apparently, there seemed like nothing else I could do better. I sucked in air and stood on my feet deciding to go for a light walk. It could help me, or maybe not, either way, I knHaley’eded the help within myself outside the walls of my room.I felt a t

Hayle's I slowly opened my eyes, the room looked fuzzy and unclear. I blinked a few times to clear my vision, and then I saw someone moving around, but their features were all blurry. It reminded me of Alex, but I couldn't be sure.I felt a mix of emotions - confusion, and a bit of fear. Was it really him? I tried to sit up to get a better look, but it was hard. Every movement felt heavy and slow.I strained my eyes, hoping to see more clearly, eager to know if it was really him or just my imagination playing tricks on me when suddenly he drew closer and spoke up.“I really need to know why you chose to have yourself killed today,” Alex spoke, his words coming off more like an exclamation than a statement. He had intervened and disrupted Adams' plan to take me out while fighting me in the training field. I was so dumb to recognize that that had been his plan all along.How stupid of me. I cussed inwardly. I thought about what happened, and a heavy feeling settled in my chest. I r
