The Betrayed Ex-wife's Revenge Chapter 36: Little Man
NOW I forgot to breathe for a second, and my brain assessed everything to tell me what it all meant. I turned around and saw Ela had already picked him up in her hands, and all the emotions of compassion and love flooded her face. He was her son. Ela was the mother of this beautiful boy. She didn’t say anything about having a child. I thought, then realised it wasn’t my business. She didn’t owe me the details of her personal life or affairs. She came for business, and she has remained in that position since then, despite my persuasions. Watching them share a wholesome moment was priceless, but my heart burned, realising what this meant. My eyes blurred up, knowing that if everything had gone according to my plans, he would have been ours. I blinked back the tears and cleared my choked-up throat. “He’s yours.” It wasn’t a question; it was a statement of fact. He looked so much like her. They had the same eyes, the same nose, and the same smile. This was what I thought our baby wo

Despite the economic situation, the Plane Enterprise anniversary night was still a grand one, with guests coming from all over the country to celebrate the day. It was the fiftieth anniversary, the golden jubilee, and everyone knew what that meant. Ivory wanted to make a statement, and since taking over the supervision of the day, she has kept to her word. This was it and more; no detail was left untouched. From the venue chosen to the decoration of the arena and the bands to play, it all screamed perfection. It also screamed money; we didn’t have the luxury to spend in excess, but I didn’t want to dabble into that now. Ivory would only assume I was overreacting and tell him Ela was on the path to returning Air Plane Enterprise to its formal glory. This, she also said, would help restore the image of the company in the eyes of partners and competitors. How she ran the company along with Robert and didn’t run it into the ground was still a mystery to me. We will be in the news for week
The Betrayed Ex-wife's Revenge Chapter 38: Rights to pain
It couldn't be real, though. Ela had been here for over a month, and she'd been in and out of the Planes company for more than three weeks. She never mentioned a boyfriend in those weeks. She also didn't speak about her son, although she had one. Perhaps she wanted to keep her personal life private. My eyes lingered on Ela's mystery man, who oozed confidence and maturity from far away. It was hard to dismiss his presence with how he carried himself; he also looked at her with the utmost adoration, as if she were the only person in the room-as if she could do no wrong. Ela had that effect on people because I once had that look, and it was the look of love. He loved her, and she was happy with him. The picture was so perfect it hurt. They didn't know most people here, yet they were content in each other's company; it didn't bother them. "Are you okay?" Vivian asked from beside me, and my gaze broke from them to him. I nodded, but he knew better because he rolled his eyes. "I didn

With a longing look, Cecil watched as Gwyneth McGee walked away from us, but the older woman seemed so offended at the rude interruption that Cecil couldn’t call to her.Ela whispered something into her partner’s ear, and he chuckled richly and shook his head in response. Cecil didn’t like that because her teeth gritted, and she turned her attention to Ela and the man Gwyneth had just called Mr. Martinez, but before she could speak, I did.“Ms. Garcia, it’s so nice to have you here. I am glad you honoured the invitation,” I said, holding a smile on my face in hopes of diffusing the tension that had already built.I'd never seen Cecil so frustrated since we got together, and it was best to make sure things didn't escalate.“The pleasure is mine. This is a lovely event,” she answered.It wasn’t even in the top ten among the lovely events I have attended, but I didn’t say anything to counter. “Oh, you’re so nice,” I said instead.“Oliver, please meet Fermín Martinez, my boyfriend.” She i

Third POVSeth didn’t want to be here; it was too crowded, and he felt eyes on him as he made his way around. Because his overdose made the news and got people talking, many knew about his addiction. Although he checked into rehab to get himself clean, he didn’t do it for anyone, not even his parents.It was for Jesse, his nephew.When Nina visited him at the hospital, she had brought her son along. He saw how brightly the little angel smiled at him, and he wanted to be a better uncle to him.He checked into rehab the following week and has kept an image of Jesse in his mind ever since.He came here today because Oliver invited him, and he also told him something noteworthy. Imela had a son, and Oliver believed it was his. It didn’t make much sense when Oliver said it to him, but after he left, Seth thought about it.Oliver thought Imela’s son was his because of the lie they told four years ago against Imela. It was a lie, and if it was a lie, it meant Imela’s son was Oliver's, and he
The Betrayed Ex-wife's Revenge Chapter 41: The aftermath
Imela's presence at the anniversary party sparked a fascinating conversation online and on the news during the weekend. It was her first official outing in the States, and they were honoured to be the first to have her. This generated more positive marks for the Plane Enterprise than they had seen. The Garcia Group was a force to be reckoned with, and seeing the CEO at their fiftieth-anniversary party moved them into a positive light. It meant that their days of struggle would soon be behind them. Ultimately, the night that had started rough had become a breakthrough. The last thing Oliver expected to receive this Monday was a phone call from Ivory at the hospital. Seth had attempted suicide and was in terrible condition at the hospital. He had to abandon everything he was doing at the office and hurried over to the hospital, where he found Ivory already there with Robert, looking miserable. He spotted Nina in the corner with her head bowed. "What happened?" He asked, stopping be
The Betrayed Ex-wife's Revenge Chapter 42: Recollection
Oliver's POV Receiving news of Seth's awakening was an answer to prayer. I couldn’t believe when I last prayed, but for his sake, I did. Just like a week ago, when I heard the news of his attempted suicide, I cancelled the rest of my appointment for the day and drove straight to the hospital. I met with the doctors, who told me they had transferred Seth to another unit after his awakening and led me over to see him. I pushed open the door to his room, and I saw Ivory still seated beside him, holding onto his hand. She hadn't left his side in the past week. Robb couldn’t return to his role at the company, as he spent his time here beside his wife and others, going around to get food and whatever else she needed. If she had left his side, it wasn’t up to an hour. Ivory believed this was her punishment for being a horrible person, and yesterday, I found her with her eyes closed, mumbling something under her breath. She was praying. She might have realised the error of her ways and how
The Betrayed Ex-wife's Revenge Chapter 43: Broken trust
FlashbackOver three years ago,"What do you think of a parlour that caters to every woman's beauty needs?" Cecil asked as she fell onto the couch beside me and placed her legs on my lap.“You will need to elaborate,” I replied.“We are looking at a parlour that sells cosmetics and other body essentials, gives spa and massage services, and carries out makeovers and glow-ups for our clients." She elaborated, "I did my research, and all three are always separate. I plan to make them all accessible at one stop for women looking for everything in one venue. This puts an end to too much stress. We will have the latest products in beauty and body care and provide body therapy sessions. As we advance, we would incorporate door delivery, and customers wouldn’t have to stress themselves out by leaving the comfort of their houses.” She finished, and she looked like she had thought everything through.“That sounds like a great idea,” I said after thinking it over. I was genuinely impressed. “I
