Camilla’s POV

“You are Fired.” These are the three words my supervisor told me as I entered her office this morning.

My breath caught in my throat, I stood there shocked, staring at the letter she threw at me.

Fired? How?

“I'm sorry, ma’am, please, I am just ten minutes late. The traffic was unbearable…..” I tried explaining but she cut me off sharply.

“Enough! You are always making excuses, Camilla. The CEO approves of this because he's tired of hearing different complaints from you every time you are rebuked, so get out.”

I tried begging her again, but It seemed pointless trying to explain myself because she was not listening. Besides, hearing her mention the CEO got me even more upset.

Without another word, I turned and walked out of her office, my heart pounded with anger and disbelief.

I can’t think straight, not after the morning I was having, not after receiving a video of my husband having sex with an unknown woman.

I’ve been hearing rumors that my husband has been dating a woman for some time now, but I thought it was just a lie because I didn’t catch him red handed myself. But the video made me believe it, and it shattered my heart into pieces.

Yes, Daniel and I have our differences, but we try to settle them. So, I never imagined that he could do this to me. But I still need to confirm this from him.

Tears threatened to fall but I controlled it as I headed straight into the CEO’s office, who happened to be my husband of three years, Daniel Caspian. He became the CEO of Azal Pharmaceutical Company after his father's death five years ago.

Daniel and I got married privately, so nobody knows I'm his wife at work. Besides, I had to beg him to let me work as an assistant clerk after our marriage clock one year because I was eighteen years old when I married him and I still have interest in going back to school.

I have stayed by Daniel’s side for three good years, supporting him through everything. Even though Daniel only married me because his fiance ran away a few days before their wedding, and he wanted his mother, who had recently been diagnosed with a liver problem and had less than sixteen months to live, to see her grandchild.

As I walked towards Daniel’s office, his assistant tried to stop me, but I pushed past him and walked in. The door opened and slammed against the wall, which startled Daniel who was sitting at his table.

His expression darkened the moment he saw me and noticed the fury in my eyes. I had barely said anything when he spoke, his face devoid of any emotion.

“What is it, Camilla?” he spat coldly.

“Why am I being fired, Daniel? I'm just an assistant clerk….”

He cut me off sharply, his words sharper than sword.

“You know what, let's get a divorce, Camilla. It's time for this nonsense marriage to end,” he said coldly, his deep voice echoing through the room.

My heart dropped to the pits of my stomach. It felt like someone just hit me hard. My breath caught in my throat, and I stared at him stunned.

“Divorce? Why?” I managed to ask.

He did not only cheated on me and fired me, but he also want to divorce me.

I could feel my heart pounding in my chest from disbelief.

I have always been a dutiful wife since we got married and even nursed his sick mother till she got better, so what could have happened?

Daniel stood up from his seat, walked towards me with a brown envelope in his hand, and threw it at me.

“This marriage is a deal and I am pulling out because you are unable to give me what I want for three years,” Daniel replied with disdain, his cold eyes piercing my heart and shattering it Into pieces.

I stood there unable to speak; my mind raced with thousands of thoughts of how I married him.

Daniel was originally engaged to my sister, Nancy. However, just a few days before her wedding, Nancy suddenly ran away from home because she was not ready to settle down, which upset Daniel, making him marry me instead. After all, he was desperate.

I had just completed my secondary school education at the time, but I had to agree when my father threatened to disown me if I didn't agree with him. But I must confess that I had loved Daniel even when he was engaged to my sister.

Does it mean all the years I spent with him were just a business deal to him?

“What….are you talking about, Daniel? Everything is going well with us and I know God will give us our own children.” I said, my voice shaking.

Daniel laughed out bitterly as he ran a hand through his hair, frustrated. It was as if my presence was irritating him.

But his next words shattered my heart completely.

“The doctor said you have a disease, so you can never have children in your life. You are Infertile, Camilla, and why will I stay married to you if you can't have children? Who knows what you have used your younger years to do?” he scoffed.

His words cut deeper than any wound I ever had in my life. My chest tightens as agony fills every inch of me.

The doctor truly confirmed that I had PCOS three months ago, but I have been treated, so I never expected him to use it against me.

“It's not a disease, Daniel. It's a condition and I have been treated. I will have children at the right time.”

He scoffed. “You can keep waiting, but not with me. I have given you enough chances and it's time we go our separate ways.”

This couldn't be real. I didn't believe a day like this would come in our marriage.

I felt utterly betrayed and used as I tried to control the tears that were in my eyes. My dreams and the life I have planned out are crumbling right in my presence. How would I live if he divorced me after wasting my time for three years? Where will I start from?

“Why…Daniel? What have I done to deserve this treatment from you?” I yelled, my voice cracking.

“You are so cruel, Daniel. For three years I stayed by your side and showed you love. I abandoned my dreams to care for you and your sick mother, yet you and your family criticize everything I do, which I never complain about.”

“Well, if you think I am cruel because I want a baby, then so be it. Besides, I don't want you to work here again because I don't want people to know that you are my ex-wife. It will destroy my reputation if people know you are my ex-wife.”

Each word he said felt like a dagger to my soul, cutting deeper into my wounded heart.

“Don't worry, you won't pay me for not fulfilling your own end of our marriage deal, just pack your things and leave quietly without causing any trouble.”

“No, I won't leave.” I cried out angrily.

So I caused him trouble even after all these years.

I took out my phone angrily, played the sex video, and threw it on his table.

“Is that why you cheated on me?” I asked, looking up at him. “Are you going to divorce me because of her, Daniel?”

He clenched his jaw, staring at me with no single guilt in his expression, he didn't even flinch as he glanced at the sex video.

“I did not cheat on you because that's Nancy, my ex-fiance,” he answered firmly.

My heart sank as I tried to process what I just heard. I couldn't believe it.

“Nan…Nancy?” I stammered. “You cheated on me with my sister? The same Nancy that left you?”

“Yes, Nancy left, but now she’s back and she must take her rightful place because I still love her!”

I wanted to scream, to hold him and beat him to make him also feel the pain he was causing me, but all I could do was just watch him while my heart broke into pieces.

“No, I would rather die than allow this to happen,” I yelled angrily.

He met my gaze and said, “Then prepare to die.”

My world crashed at his words.

I gave Damien a side-eye look that made him quickly reduce his voice. “Keep it low, guy; Nancy is here!” We looked around to see if Nancy wasn't coming because she had gone to use the toilet as soon as we entered the club. I gulped down a glass of hard liquor as the waiter brought the glasses and filled it up. Nancy and I went straight to the club as soon as we were done with her parents. I had called Damien to meet me up at our usual spot earlier, and I didn't think that Nancy would follow me.

Our eyes met, but unlike me, she wasn't shocked, she looked at me with a polite but cold and professional smile on her lips. Her auburn hair was neatly parked into a bun, looking professional in her white doctor gown. Her beauty and confidence swept my feet away, it was as if she was reborn. She looked more classy and mature compared to how she looked in the past. “C….Camilla?” I blurted out as I stood up and moved closer to her, as if reducing the distance between us would make the moment less impossible. I looked at her and her name tag, written as Dr. Wesley, and a thousand questions filled my head. “You…you are the Doctor Wesley I've been dying to meet all this while?” I managed to say, barely recovering from the shock. Camilla became a medical doctor after divorcing me and she was going to treat me? It felt surreal. I had never expected

She disappeared like smoke after I served her divorce papers then, but now she's back, not just back, but thriving and she even rejected me as her patient. Like I was just another name on the list of her patients. It stung more than I wanted to admit.

Has he forgotten how he slept with my sister for years before he finally divorced me? Did he think everyone was like him?He grabbed my hand and pulled me all the way to the back of one of the buildings where no one could easily see us. My mind raced as he pinned me against the wall, making his perfume enveloped me.“Did you really sleep with another man?” he asked angrily."Get your filthy hands off me now. And don't you ever lay your hands on me?" I yanked my hand out of his grip, my eyes blazing with fury. The nerve of him standing there, accusing me like he was the victim. Like he didn't shatter my life into pieces nine years ago. Like he didn't betray me with Nancy, the person I trusted the most. I hated his guts and the mere sight of him got me more annoyed because it reminded me of everything I went through in his hands and every pain I endured in

    Camilla’s POVI paced the room, running a hand through my already scattered hair before I turned to face her again. “What’s going on, Mom? Did you already know that I’m your mother? Why didn’t you tell me if you already know? Or did your daughter die back then?” I asked the question all at once because I needed the answers, and I didn’t want her to hide from me. She heaved a sigh and clutched the sheets as she struggled to sit properly. I inched toward her and quickly reached out to help her. I can’t have her die now. No, she’s not going to die. My thoughts were scattered and I had no idea what to think anymore. “You see Camilla,” she said, tears welling up in her eyes. I knew the answer I wanted right at that moment. She knew all this while that I was her daughter, but she didn’t tell me. She hides things from her only daughter. How could she be this cruel to me when she literally dumped me at birth because she didn’t want to lose her inheritance. How could she be this heartless

Are you not going to work?” I asked, hoping he’d say he’s about to go, but just wanted to check on me before going, but the reverse was the case.“Yeah, I just wantto see you again,” he said, smiling, but what he didn't know was that the smile was making angry me at that moment because I had something urgent to do. Before I could say a word, he pulled the chair and sat down. “Daniel, Really?” I asked, raising a brow. “I have work to do and….”“I know, Camilla, but I just wanted to stay with you. I kept having this feeling that I shouldn’t leave you alone. That was why I insisted on sleeping over at your house. It’s because I kept having this feeling that something will happen.” he explained. “Thank you, Daniel. I know you’re worried about me and want me to be safe, but I can assure you that nothing will happen, Dani

    Camilla’s Pov Daniel, on the other hand, kept staring sweetly into my eyes.“I know it's weird and wrong if we think about what I've been through and what Daniel had caused me in the past, but it's what I want and I can't ignore it. I can't leave him in the past and move on like nothing happened. Besides, we have a nine-year-old son together, and my world revolves around him and whatever he wants.”I can't even ignore the fact that I couldn't give my heart to any other guy for nine years, but he made me fall for him again not long after I returned. I don't know if it's because I was scared to love again or because I didn't just want my son to be traumatized by having two fathers or being a stepson to a man who wouldn't like him. Justin couldn't talk; he was just looking at me, which was the same as Daniel.“Are you sure that's what you want, Camilla?” Justin asked when he finally regained composure.I paused for a while as if I was thinking about it again,, before I nodded my head.

My heart almost jumped out of my chest as it was thumping heavily in my heart. What could it be? I’m I Lady Wesley’s daughter just as I’ve thought or was I just imagining things? Am I too greedy for wanting Lady Wesley to be my mom? Is it someone else? What will happen if I end up being her daughter? What will happen after that? Will I be able to forgive her or will I be stuck to my past? Different thoughts and ideas race through my heart, leaving me trembling in fear. With trembling hands, I reached out to collect the result from him and thanked him for making the result come out faster than I thought. I walked down the corridor back to my office, clutching the test result in a file I had taken with me while going to hide it as if people could read my mind or as if it was a secret I couldn’t reveal. Just as I was about to turn to my office,

Lady Wesley's daughter is the same picture from the orphanage, which means I've successfully located the orphanage where she put her daughter, but why do I feel like I'm connected to the picture?Why do I feel oddly connected to her? The orphanage where she had put her daughter was the same orphanage I've been to thrice now in search of my parents. I saw the same photo the last time I went to the orphanage and felt a weird kind of connection to it as if I was the baby in the photo. I felt disturbed and lost my peace and I felt like the world is closing in on me as realization dawned on me that since the two kids are the same and I feel weirdly connected to it. I heaved a sigh even though I was troubled. I knew just what to do, which is to get to the root of everything. I got out of my car and went back to my apartment. I went straight to the bathroom, but

Anywhere you are is home to me.” I was left speechless by his response. Who on earth sleeps in his in-law's house if not Daniel Caspian, my husband? I tapped him, but he didn’t even answer me, he just pulled me into a warm embrace and cuddled me until I finally gave up. I was tired and feeling sleepy, but most importantly, refreshed and happy.“I love you, Camilla,” Daniel whispered into my ears making my heart skip a beat before he finally slept off. I couldn’t answer, but I felt happy that he’s beside me. The bed was empty when I woke up. Has he gone home? Why did he leave without seeing me? He didn’t even tell me before going. Is

    Camilla’s POVI wasn’t expecting Nancy to think of snatching the phone out of Dad’s hand, but since she did, I wanted to show her what it means to put someone in her place. She probably thinks the love and respect I have for her was still there because I used to like her and do everything she wanted. She must have thought I’m still the same girl I was nine years ago, but putting her in her place has never been more soothing. “Go ahead and lecture me as always big sis, since that’s all you know how to do. Just do it again and let’s breathe.” I said to her which got on her nerves. And to make matters worse, Daniel came out right when I was about to end the call and kissed me. I intentionally moaned loudly to it so she could know that Daniel was mine and that she was nobody to him.Daniel’s voice was filled with sarcasm when he asked what she wanted, and I knew, which gave me a kind of Joy I didn’t know I’d ever have. I pictured the way Nancy’s voice will be in my head and I couldn’t he

I felt glued to a position and couldn’t move, I had to beg him to stop thinking so it wouldn't affect his health. I watched him struggle to hold things in while call after call of investors pulling out continued to flood his phone. The news has even made headlines, and soon, the staff and banks will start asking for their money,y, and so on, they’ll be left homeless.I thought of Camilla, but I dismissed the thought, knowing she wouldn’t help. I had to dial her number and convince my dad to speak with her after watching him groan in pain. I didn’t know Camilla would answer, but she answered on the third ring and she wasn’t even listening to my father’s pleas which got me angry and I began to fight my father and

  • The CEO's Boss Lady Ex-wife   chapter 132

    Camilla’s POVI quickly dialed Jackson’s number when I got outside, but when I remembered that Daniel could follow me, I cut the call and resolved to send him a message. I sent the image of the baby along with the text that he should go back to the orphanage to see the baby’s picture we saw that day, if it’s the same because the woman said that the particular baby that I was talking about was kidnapped. So, if my analysis is correct, it means Lady Wesley’s daughter was kidnapped, and it’s probably by one of her father’s business rivals back then because there was no way to justify that other than my judgment. But even after sending the pictures to Jackson and knowing that even though he can’t go to the orphanage again today, he’ll be there the first thing the following morning to confirm if the pictures are truly the same, then we’ll look for how to find the person. But the date and time of when she gave birth to her baby and the date she took her to the orphanage kept ringing in my
