The CEO’s Ex-wife Returns Chapter 115
Chapter 115Sienna’s PovI held the invitation card tightly in my hand as I stared at Lisa’s smug face. “Don’t cross my path again, Lisa,” I said, my voice calm but edged with warning. She laughed lightly, adjusting her purse on her shoulder. “Oh, Sienna, you can say what you want, but I’ll see you at the party. Whether you like it or not.” I didn’t respond, turning on my heel and walking out of the store. My grip on the invitation card tightened as I pushed open the doors, the cool air outside doing little to calm the anger boiling inside me. When I got home, I stood by the counter, staring at the glossy card with Lucas’s name written in bold. My first instinct was to tear it apart, to shred it into tiny pieces and throw it away. But as I reached for it, a thought stopped me. "Why not give them a warm present instead?" I thought that would be better.A slow, mischievous smile crept across my face. If Lisa and Lucas thought I’d sit quietly and watch them parade their fake

Chapter 116 Sienna’s PovAs I got off the phone with Lucas’s uncle, a thousand questions swirled in my mind. Why would he want to take me to dinner? What was his real motive? But I decided not to overthink it. After all, I had my own plans to deal with Lucas and his upcoming engagement. I slipped into a simple yet elegant dress, making sure I looked composed but not overly formal. .When he arrived to pick me up, I greeted him politely and got into the car. The restaurant he chose was a cozy, upscale place, quiet enough for conversation but lively enough to feel comfortable. As we sat down, he reached across the table and took my hand. “Sienna,” he said in a calm yet sincere tone, “I don’t want you to worry about Lucas. He’s… lost right now. He doesn’t know what he’s doing.” I pulled my hand back gently, giving him a faint smile. “I’m not worrying about Lucas. We have no relation to each other anymore. Whatever he’s doing with Lisa is his business, not mine.” He nodded,

Chapter 1Sienna’s POV“What do you mean by let’s get divorced? What about our baby?” I subconsciously rubbed my tummy, looking so perplexed.I couldn’t believe my ears. Why would Lucas suddenly propose a divorce when I was finally pregnant after our two years of marriage?“Can’t you just get it, Sienna?” Lucas ran his finger into his hair, pacing around the room, looking so frustrated.And of course, I couldn’t get it. I couldn’t understand what was going on.I knew Lucas only had his eyes on someone else, but she had gotten married to someone else who was his uncle. Lucas begged me to marry him, promising me he would love me and show the whole world I was his wife. Our marriage of two years had been going perfectly well, but not until a few days ago. Lucas had been coming back home late. He had been receiving some strange calls, but I didn’t think much about them. I thought it was just business, but now it doesn’t look that way anymore.Is Lucas seeing someone?That can’t be true.
The CEO’s Ex-wife Returns Chapter 2
Chapter 2“Miss, are you up?” I heard a voice over me.My head hurt so badly, and my eyes felt so heavy that I could hardly open them up. I could feel the pain coming from my belly, and it hurt so badly. I managed to open up my eyes, and it slowly scanned around the room. Seeing the nurse in front of me, I could guess that I had woken up at the hospital.“You are at the hospital, Miss. How are you feeling?” I heard the nurse's soft voice again. “M-my baby.” I whimpered. That was the only thing I could think of at the moment.I knew my life had already gone down the drain, but my baby was the only hope I had left.“Let me get you the doctor.” I heard the nurse mumble as she scampered away from my sight.I heard some footsteps approaching, and I knew the nurse was back with the doctor. My eyes had become clearer, and I could observe everything around me quite well.“Miss, We already called your guardian. They will be here soon.” I heard the doctor’s voice the moment he reached my side
The CEO’s Ex-wife Returns Chapter 3
Chapter 3 Four years later.I got out of the limousine and stepped on the marble floor in my three-inch red heels. I swayed my hips towards the front grand door, and the guards stationed at every corner of the house immediately bowed at the sight of me, but the moment I arrived in front of the door, the voices coming from inside stopped me. "I want to see my father!" a voice screamed, followed by the sound of a flower vase breaking inside.“Young miss. I’m afraid you can’t be doing this. Ma’am isn’t home at the moment. You need to calm down.” I heard the housekeeper trying to persuade the young girl.“I won’t stop until you ask her to bring me my father!” The young girl groaned loudly enough to irritate me, but I ignored that. I pushed the door open and announced my arrival.“I’m home,” I mumbled.The housekeeper immediately turned in my direction and bowed.“Welcome ma’am.”She took a step closer to me. “Ma’am, she has…” The housekeeper tried to explain the whole situation to me
The CEO’s Ex-wife Returns Chapter 4
Chapter 4 Lucas POVI ran my finger into my hair, looking so frustrated. What the hell is going on?I thought today was a good day, but it turned out to be the worst day of my life.What’s going on?Just then the door was pushed open and my secretary ran in. Seeing the look in his eyes, I knew something worse had happened again. I knew he had come to give me more reports, and I was devastated even before I heard them.“What’s going on, Kenneth?” I asked, sounding so frustrated already.Ken was my best friend and still my secretary.“The sales are dropping Lucas. This is getting out of hand.” He told me.I paced around the room. I ran my fingers into my hair, looking so frustrated. If there is anyone I want to kill right now, it will be the person spoiling my reputation right now—the reputation I had built for years.“Do you find out who ‘He’ is?” I asked Ken sternly.He sighed.“That’s the problem. We are still unable to track him.” He told me.I groaned in anger. “Then who on eart

Chapter 5 Sienna POV I walked towards my suite with a soft smile escaping from my lips while scrolling through my phone. Just at the moment, a call came into my cellphone. I picked up almost immediately. “Did you see the news?” The anonymous voice asked me. I immediately nodded. Of course, I saw it, and I was more than excited at the moment. “Yes, and I’m in love with it. I will talk to you later. Thanks for the good work.” I told the voice and hung up. The smile on my face grew even wider, shining so brightly that it nearly blinded anyone who looked at me. Seeing the rumour of Lucas circulating the internet, I was so in love with it. I smiled brightly as I approached my suite, where I had left Daphne. I frowned slightly at the thought of Daphne. I had left Daphne behind in the suite after she had chosen to nag me the whole day just because she wanted to see her father. The same man who abandoned her even at the point of death. She chose someone else over her! I breathed de
The CEO’s Ex-wife Returns Chapter 6
Chapter 6 Lucas POV I couldn’t believe the unbelievable connection I had with the little girl. We went along quite well, and she ended up revealing to me everything about her mother. What kind of mother has been so harsh to her kid? What kind of mother does she have? I watched her frown slightly, and she accompanied it with a pout, but that greatly reminded me of someone again. “She is a real devil, mister. I don’t know why I’m telling you all this, but my mother hates me.” She complained to me. I sighed and adjusted on my seat. The two of us finally rested at one of the lounge’s chairs, discussing her mother. I hadn’t met her, but I couldn’t imagine how devilish she was. How could she be so cranky towards a little girl? I leaned closer to her. “Do you want me to call the cops on her?” I asked her. She sighed dramatically. “I don’t want to do that. She is still my mother; at least she clothed me and fed me. I’m always grateful for that.” The little girl told me, and I l

Chapter 114 Sienna’s Pov“Daphne,” I said softly, sitting back on the edge of her bed. “Lucas isn’t your daddy.” Her small face scrunched up in confusion, her wide eyes brimming with innocence. “But he’s always so nice to me. Why can’t he be my daddy?” I sighed, brushing her hair away from her forehead. “Sometimes, people are just nice to us because they care. It doesn’t mean they’re family. Now, sweetie, you need to lie down and get some rest. You have a big day at school tomorrow.” Daphne hesitated but finally settled into her bed, her tiny hands clutching her stuffed bunny. “Okay, Mommy,” she said quietly. I kissed her forehead and tucked her in, whispering, “Goodnight, sweetheart.” As I left her room and closed the door softly behind me, I leaned against it, exhaling heavily. Daphne’s question had struck a nerve, one I’d buried deep for years. Despite the turmoil swirling in my heart, I found myself smiling as I thought about everything I’d achieved. I’d created a

Chapter 113 Sienna’s Pov“Sienna, where are you?” David’s voice on the other end of the line sounded worried. “I’m fine, David,” I replied, stepping aside as Daphne ran past me, giggling. “Why do you ask?” “I stopped by your place earlier, and you weren’t home. Just wanted to make sure everything was okay,” he said. I smiled lightly, though he couldn’t see me. “Thanks for checking, but we’re alright. I’ll talk to you later, okay? Bye, David.” “Alright. Take care,” he replied, and I ended the call. Daphne came running back to me, looking tired but happy. “Mommy, I’m so tired,” she said, wrapping her arms around my legs. I bent down and kissed her on the forehead. “You had fun, didn’t you?” She nodded, yawning dramatically. I turned to Ryan, who was leaning against the car, smiling at us. “Thank you for today,” I said sincerely. “And for the gift. Daphne loved it.” “It was nothing,” Ryan replied with a casual shrug. “Anything for you two. And if you need anything, you
The CEO’s Ex-wife Returns Chapter 112
Chapter 112Sienna’s PovThe soft chime of my phone pulled me from my thoughts. I glanced down and saw Ryan’s name pop up on the screen with a simple message: *“Come outside. There’s a car waiting for you. Trust me.”* I frowned slightly, my curiosity piqued. Placing the phone on the counter, I grabbed my bag and walked out the door. Just as he said, a sleek black car was parked at the curb. The driver stepped out, greeted me politely, and opened the door. “Where am I going?” I asked hesitantly. “You’ll see,” the driver replied with a professional smile. The car stopped in front of a grand restaurant. The warm lights inside cast a golden glow through the large windows, and the atmosphere buzzed with elegance and luxury. My jaw dropped slightly as I stepped out, unsure why I was here. Ryan stood at the entrance, dressed sharply, his usual confident smile softening as he caught my gaze. “This is for you,” he said, gesturing to the restaurant behind him. “For me?” I rep

Chapter 111 Lucas’s Pov“David, we need to talk,” I said as he opened the door. David raised an eyebrow but didn’t seem surprised to see me. “Lucas, didn’t we just leave this mess? What is it now?” I stepped inside without waiting for an invitation, glancing around his neat and modern living room. “I need answers. About Sienna.” David closed the door behind me, crossing his arms as he leaned against it. “Answers? What do you think I know?” I turned to face him, trying to keep my tone casual. “You live next to her. You’ve obviously spent time with her. I figured you might know more about what’s going on in her life.” David chuckled, shaking his head. “You’re barking up the wrong tree, Lucas. I’ve only known Sienna for a few days.” I didn’t believe him. Folding my arms, I leaned against the back of his couch. “A few days? That’s hard to believe, considering how comfortable she seems around you.” “She’s a good neighbor,” David replied with a shrug. “And I’m just being pol
The CEO’s Ex-wife Returns Chapter 110
Chapter 110 Lucas’s PovI didn’t know what to say. Ryan was doing most of the talking, though it was clear he was struggling to string a proper sentence together. His words came out jumbled, stammered, and frankly, they didn’t make much sense. Sienna just stood there in the doorway, arms crossed, staring at the three of us like we were a group of misbehaving children. Her eyes flicked over our bruised faces, and I could tell she was holding back her temper. When I opened my mouth to say something, she raised a hand to stop me. “Enough,” she said sharply. “All of you, stop talking. You’re grown men. Handle your injuries yourselves.” She turned around without waiting for a response, scooped Daphne into her arms, and carried her inside, shutting the door firmly behind her. I let out a long sigh, my shoulders slumping. This wasn’t how I wanted things to go. I’d hoped, naively, that seeing me in such a state would tug at Sienna’s soft, merciful side, the one I knew so well. Bu
The CEO’s Ex-wife Returns Chapter 109
Chapter 109Ryan’s PovI wanted to punch Lucas right there in Sienna’s living room. The smug look on his face, the way he acted like he had a right to be here, made my blood boil. But I kept my fists clenched in my pocket. Starting a fight wouldn’t help Sienna, and it would only make things worse for Daphne. So, I sat back, my jaw tight, and kept my focus on Sienna, who was doing her best to keep the situation calm. “Why don’t I cook something for everyone?” she said, her tone overly cheerful in an attempt to cut through the tension. “The three of you can go to the supermarket and get me what I need.” Lucas frowned. “The three of us?” “Yes,” Sienna replied quickly. “You’ll all need to get along sooner or later, so this is a good start.” David gave her a small nod. “Sure, if that’s what you want.” I shrugged, hiding the smirk forming on my lips. If I couldn’t hit Lucas, I’d enjoy making him uncomfortable. “Alright. Let’s go.” It took longer than it should’ve to decide wh

Chapter 108 Sienna’s Pov“Mommy!” Daphne’s voice echoed from the living room as I heard her small footsteps shuffle around. Panic gripped me. I’d left her alone for just a few minutes while I cleaned up in the bathroom. Throwing down the towel, I rushed out to see what had happened. The sight of David sitting at the dining table with Daphne by his side caught my eye. Her small hand was wrapped in a makeshift bandage, and tears glistened in her eyes. “What happened?” I asked, my voice trembling as I hurried over to them. David looked up, his expression calm but concerned. “She tried peeling an orange on her own,” he explained, gesturing to the knife on the counter. “She cut herself before I could stop her.” “Oh, Daphne…” I knelt beside her, gently taking her hand and examining the injury. The cut wasn’t deep, but seeing her hurt like this made my heart race. “I’m okay, Mommy,” Daphne said, her voice wavering. I felt a so much guilt for leaving her unsupervised. “I should
