THE CEO IS MY EX HUSBAND Episode 10
HARLEY POV I sat quietly in the study, the hum of the air conditioner doing little to alleviate the tension in the room. ethan 's office was impeccably arranged, with bookshelves lined with leather-bound volumes and a large mahogany desk dominating the space. The heavy silence was interrupted only by the occasional ringing of Ethan 's phone. ’s gaze shifted from the ornate clock on the wall to Ethan ’s phone, which had been persistently buzzing on the desk.Ethan , who had been engrossed in paperwork, finally picked up the phone, only to hang up moments later. His face was a mask of composure, but could sense the undercurrent of frustration. Before Haylee could ask any questions, the door to the study burst open, and Hailey strode in, her expression stern.“If you can’t give me grandchildren as soon as possible, then don’t blame me for taking an extreme route,” Hailey's voice was sharp, each word laced with frustration.Ethan remained silent, his gaze fixed on the paperwork in f

hayle's pov As soon as I popped my eyes open, the sight that welcomed me was that of Ethan 'sHis arms yanked at mine right one time to prevent me from falling harshly against the floor. I jerked his arms off mine before tending to my feet. My eyes can end all through my body, right from head to toe, worried sick that he may have done something to me in my sleep.“Relax; I only got here three minutes ago or so. What's with the weird look? Aren't you happy that I've come to keep your company?” He asked with that same annoying tone that strokes his ego each time he spikes.“What do you want, Ethan ? You could have at least woken me.” I added the frown in my face, and the displeasure was evident in my tone. I may have made a resolution to myself about laying low until the time came and I could handle things myself, yet that had not meant I could tone the irritation I felt for him.“Get dressed; we have a meeting to go to. You and I, after all, would be in charge of some things if we wer

HAYLE 'S POV.“I don't want this one, maybe the pink.” I added in, the attendant nodded slowly and reached it towards me. I wriggled into it before making my way towards the full-length mirror, which stood elegantly in the corner of the dressing room. Kevin remained, his back against the chair. His eyes following the ribery not of the move that I made, a sheepish smile on his face.Every bit of his actions bothered me.I had hoped he would be bored by now, so I spent the entire afternoon buying clothes and doing my hair. Nails, purses show, and now I'm shopping for jackets.What on earth would I bloody need jackets for? It was summer already; I didn't need any heavy clothing of any sort, but of course I needed to tell him in the smartest way possible.He was more obsessed than I was; how could he keep his eyes peeled on me all along? Not for once had he taken his eyes off me. And it ruined my life majorly. I really wanted some chance to make an escape, knowing this was meant to be t

HAYLE'S POV.I rose to my feet as soon as the door pushed open. I had been worried all day, pacing back and forth in the room waiting for him to come around.“What's the matter? The hotel attendant claimed you had something important to say.” He added in hastily, his eyes scanning every inch of my body, almost like he believed I had been hurt, I wouldn't blame him. I made the urgency in my tone known to the attendant, and I'm certain he threatened them well not to have me hurt or escape.‘Ethan , I have just one favor to ask of you; remember that wish you promised to grant me days ago! I'm ready; I know what I'd like to ask for.” I added in hastily; I didn't have the time to think of my pride or any bit of ego ghost I could probably have anymore."Well, see who suddenly became greedy? Here I was thinking an expensive phone would do the trick; why should I give you any favors? Last I recalled, "You didn't want my help,“ he teased jokingly. Being the psycho that he was, I knew for a fa

Hayle's pov“I'll be out in a moment,” I complained to both men; they exchanged glances before nodding slowly.“You have just thirty minutes to head in and come out; any little disturbance we will have to report to Sir ethan , and I'm sure you don't want that happening,” the fire security guard had asked. I modded with an aschoff before picking up my pace. I knew he was a whole lot of hard work, but one thing I couldn't believe was he was actually sending two hefty men to guard me like I was some prized possession of his.I rolled my eyes from frustration; things weren't looking so good, and it still didn't seem like he was ready to have any of my problems tended to.The entire thing was beginning to stress me out; after only thirty minutes, I hoped she hadn't turned up dead by now.“Please, I'm here to see an old woman with gray hair, Scottish-looking, Mary by name,“ I asked the nurses at the reception; they exchanged glances with me and then nodded slowly.“Are you her guardian?” t

hayle's povI stirred around in bed, yet nothing came on. I had spent the entire night tossing from one side of the bed to another. I wasn't sure if it was all because it had a thing or two to do with my state of mind. I was bothered a lot.I swallowed hard. Slowly, I pushed myself up against the bed and flipped the light switch on. It was nineteen minutes past three in the morning, and I still haven't gotten a wink of sleep. It wasn't the thought of just losing the land , repaying my debt, or losing godmother, but I was under pressure.Maybe it had something to do with Mary's death; maybe it has a lot to do with the odd man who really did look like alex .But why was he in a wheelchair? Why was he in that part of town? Was there something I was missing? I couldn't help that my mind played in a continuous loop and no solution had set in yet.I reached towards the card, which I had earlier placed on the table. I scanned through it and saw nothing peculiar to it, other than the fact t

hayle.It's been days already, yet nothing sensible has 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 realised.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 ethan . 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 his call

MORGANs POV.I pushed my way into his office, cursing beneath my breath. I wasn't impressed with the new attitude.“What do you want?” Ethan asked, not lifting his gaze away from the files before him.“You're not replying to texts or picking up your calls; I came to ask you why,” I asked, swallowing hard before placing myself on the seat before him.“I've been busy; you can see I'm at work, can you?” He asked, still not having a single strand of respect for me.“Busy with my sister? ? For real?” I asked out of the blue.“And why is that a problem?”“Why is that? Do you even care about me?” I snapped; a giggle essed its way through his lips, pissing me off the most.“We talked about this, Becca; I don't love you; we agreed for it to be sex only, and I'm getting married to her spoon, which means I no longer need you,” he explained, hurting my feelings in the process, but all I could keep up was a stoic expression.“Alex , did you kill him?” I asked, and he slammed the file in his hand

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
