Ivey scrambled after me, her breath heavy as she tried to keep up.“Please slow down,” she pleaded, but I couldn't hear her. All I could hear was the blood rushing in my ears, the adrenaline coursing through my veins. I stormed through the front doors, and there she was. Diva sat at the bar, her back to me.She was with another woman, and I could see that the woman had some sort of powder on the table in front of them. Ivery grabbed my hand, squeezing it tightly.I took a deep breath, trying to calm my racing heart. She gave me a look that said, "Stay calm" and I nodded.I would do anything she asked because I knew she was right. I had to keep a cool head if I wanted to get through this.

I felt like I was trapped, with no way out.Just as I was starting to lose hope, I heard the phone ring. I rushed to answer it, my heart racing. The receptionist informed me that I had a visitor.I got dressed as fast as I could, trying to compose myself. I thought about disguising myself, but I realized it was futile. I was a stranger in this place, and no one would recognize me anyway. I took a deep breath and headed downstairs to meet my guest.

I had never expected this. I felt my blood boil, my fists clenching with rage.I turned to look at her, my anger growing by the second. Her eyes were shut tight, as if she was trying to block me out. But that only added to my rage, my blood boiling with each passing second. “What's the meaning of this?” I shouted, my voice a roar of fury.Slowly, she opened her eyes, revealing a look of pure terror. I could see the fear in them, the terror of what I might do next. But I couldn't stop myself, my anger driving me like a wild animal.“I don't understand,” she said, her voice shaking.“What don't you understand?” I snapped, my voice harsh and accusatory.I flung the pregnancy test at her, watching as she flinched, her body tense with fear.

The CEO And His Ex Contracted Wife Preparing for the worst
Diva’s POV.The last thing I remember is hearing Franco's voice, screaming at me.“What have you done?” he yelled, his words echoing in my ears.And then everything went black, darkness enveloping me. I felt myself fading, slipping away from consciousness. All I could hear was the sound of my breathing, shallow and labored.And then, nothing. I was floating in a void, a vast emptiness. There was no sound, no sensation. I was suspended in the darkness, alone and helpless.I struggled to open my eyes, my eyelids heavy and uncooperative.

The CEO And His Ex Contracted Wife Calling the engagement off
Franco’s POV.I watched as Diva stood, her eyes locked with her mom's. And then, without a word, her mom gestured for her to come closer. Without thinking twice, Diva ran to her, throwing her arms around her mom's waist. "Mom!" she said, her voice full of relief and joy. And as they hugged.I felt a flash of irritation at the scene before me, a sudden anger welling up inside me. It wasn't fair, I thought, for them to be so happy when my world was falling apart.How could they be so carefree, when everything was so uncertain? I felt my fists clench, my teeth grinding together in frustration.This was no time for lovey-dovey affection. This was a time for seriousness, for action. I wanted to shout, to demand that they take this seriously."Enough!" I screamed, my voice sounding raw and unfamiliar to my own ears. My outburst startled everyone, and Diva immediately let go of her mom. "That's no way to talk to your elders!" my dad said, his voice stern. I rolled my eyes, my frustrat

Diva’s POV.“I'm no longer interested in this engagement,” he said, his voice echoing through the room. I felt my heartbreaking, a sharp pain piercing through my chest. I knew it was the right decision, but it still hurt. I had put so much of myself into this relationship, and now it was all coming to an end.I felt like a part of me was dying, like a piece of my soul was being ripped away. But I knew that I had to do this, for my own sake.“Franco, please,” I began, but he raised his hands, cutting me off. I fell silent, my body shaking with emotion. I could feel my heart racing, my breath coming in short gasps. I was overwhelmed by a mix of feelings, unable to sort through them. I just wanted to curl up in a ball, to disappear from the world. But I couldn't, I had to face this, no matter how much it hurt. I had to be strong, even when everything inside me was screaming to run away.“Do you think I would let you break this engagement?” his father said, his voice full of indign
The CEO And His Ex Contracted Wife I have no feelings for him
Ivery’s POV.I didn't have anything important to do at home, but I couldn't stand being a third wheel, so I had to lie to them. I hated myself for it, for being so cowardly, for not being strong enough, to be honest. But I just couldn’t sit with them, couldn't face the angry Franco. So I ran, I hid, I fled like a coward.I had never seen Franco this angry before. He had always been a strong and calm person, but today, his anger was palpable, even though Diva was still so sick. It was like he couldn't control himself, like his emotions were getting the better of him. I wondered if he would be able to calm down soon. I wanted to help him, to find a way to make things right, but I didn't know how. I just hoped that he would be able to solve his issue, it could be resolved.My mind drifted to Diva and I wondered why she would risk so much, why she would be so careless with her health. Was it all just a game to her, a way to get attention and power? Or was there something more going o

There was a pause, and then he mumbled an address that I barely caught. I grabbed a pen and wrote it down, my hand shaking slightly.When I arrived at the address, I noticed that it was a nightclub, the music blaring and the people inside dancing and drinking.I made my way through the crowd, ducking and weaving to avoid being knocked over. It was a struggle, but I managed to find the back room, where I had been told I would find Franco.I knocked on the door, my heart pounding in my chest. The door opened, and I was hit with a wall of noise and smell. I took a deep breath and stepped inside, trying to adjust to the sensory overload.“Franco,” I said, my voice barely audible over the noise

The CEO And His Ex Contracted Wife What do you want to tell me
Ivery’s POV.“Ladies first,” he said with a sly smile. I nodded, taking a deep breath. I reached into my purse and pulled out my phone, my hands shaking slightly. I fumbled with the screen, unlocking it and opening the video gallery. There it was, the video of Diva in his penthouse trying to force him to sign the check. I held out the phone, my heart pounding in my chest.“Take a look,” I said, my voice trembling. He took the phone from me, a look of confusion on his face.

The CEO And His Ex Contracted Wife You go first
Ivery’s POV.Franco's behavior had been puzzling me for a while. He seemed to be acting differently, but I couldn't tell if I was just imagining things or if there was something actually going on. He had been spending more time with the kids, and sporadically they even slept over. Was I reading too much into it, or was there something more going on? I couldn't help but wonder if there was something I was missing, some hidden meaning that I just couldn't see.At first, I was afraid to let them sleep over.

I nodded, my mind whirling with thoughts and questions. “When do you think the transplant was?” I asked, trying to put the pieces together.

Franco’s POV.I stared at the report, my eyes scanning the words, but unable to make sense of it. The medical jargon was confusing and unfamiliar. I felt a sense of panic rising in my chest. “What's this?” I asked the doctor. “Your bone marrow matches with his,” he said, his voice calm and reassuring. But his words did nothing to ease my anxiety. I felt overwhelmed and confused.“How’s this possible?” I asked confused.“ Because you are the father of the child,” he said.I let out a sarcastic laugh. “How can I be the father of the child?” I asked incredulously. “Does this doctor understand how biology works?” My voice was tinged with anger and disbelief. It was impossible, I was sure of it. But the doctor looked at me calmly, and said, “I understand your skepticism, but there is no doubt that you are the father of this child. Your DNA matches perfectly.” I felt my world spinning, my mind reeling. How could this be?“Ivery told me that she wasn't the mother of the kids,” I said, my
