The CEO’s Ex-wife Returns Chapter 119
Chapter 119 Sienna’s Pov“You really know how to draw a crowd, don’t you?” Uncle Max said, stepping up beside me with a bemused expression. I turned to him, still reeling from the chaos of the evening. “I didn’t plan any of this,” I said defensively. “I came here to enjoy myself not to cause a scene. You should blame your soon to be daughter in law” He chuckled softly, shaking his head. “Regardless, we need to talk. Do you still have the card I gave you at the hotel?” I blinked, suddenly remembering the sleek card he’d handed me during our last encounter. My stomach dropped as I realized the truth. “I… I think I misplaced it,” I admitted, wincing slightly. “I’m so sorry, Max. I didn’t mean to lose it.” He waved a hand dismissively. “It’s fine, Sienna. But you’ll have to come with me tonight. There are things we need to discuss.” I frowned, shaking my head. “I can’t. I need to get home to Daphne. This party’s over for me now. Lucas has announced his engagement, so there’s

Chapter 120 Sienna’s Pov“Let me drive you home,” David said, his voice steady but filled with concern. I hesitated for a moment, still trying to shake off the embarrassment and tension from the party. But as I looked into his calm, reassuring eyes, I gave a small nod. “Thank you, David.” He gestured toward his car, and I followed him, my heels clicking softly against the pavement. The drive was quiet at first, the low hum of the engine filling the silence. David didn’t push me to talk, which I appreciated. Instead, he occasionally glanced over, making sure I was okay without saying a word. As we pulled up to my house, I exhaled deeply, grateful to be back in familiar surroundings. “Thank you for this,” I said softly, turning to him. David gave me a gentle smile. “Anytime, Sienna. You know that.” Just as I stepped out of the car, Daphne ran out of the house, her small arms flailing as she called out, “Mommy! Mommy!” “Daphne?” I said, crouching down as she barreled int

Chapter 121 Lucas’s Pov“I don’t even know why I have to explain myself to you,” Lisa snapped, pacing the living room. “Because you humiliated me, Lisa!” I shouted back, my patience hanging by a thread. “You attacked Sienna in front of everyone! Do you know how ridiculous that made us look?” Lisa spun on her heel, her face contorted with anger. “Humiliated you? Are you seriously worried about your image when she’s the one trying to ruin our lives? She was there to ruin me Lucas!” I pinched the bridge of my nose, exhaling slowly. “Lisa, I already told you, I’m handling Sienna. You don’t need to turn every situation into a scene. Do you think people left that party talking about our engagement? No, they left talking about your fight with my ex-wife!” Her eyes softened slightly, but her voice remained defiant. “I just… I can’t stand seeing her around you. I lose control.” I shook my head, feeling my anger dissipate. It was exhausting, constantly going in circles like this. “L

Chapter 122 Lucas’s Pov“I just want to take her out for the day, Sienna,” I said, my voice steady but pleading as I stood in front of her doorstep. Sienna crossed her arms, leaning against the frame of the door. “Why, Lucas? What’s this sudden interest in Daphne? You’ve barely been in her life.” Her words stung, but I kept my composure. “I know I’ve been absent,” I admitted, my tone softer now. “But I just want to spend some time with her. No strings attached.” She studied me for a long moment, her gaze sharp and unyielding. Then, almost reluctantly, she stepped aside and called into the house. “Daphne! Someone wants to see you.” A moment later, Daphne appeared, her eyes lighting up when she saw me. “Lucas!” she exclaimed, running toward me. I crouched down, meeting her at eye level. “Hey, kiddo. How about we go out today? Just you and me?” Her face lit up like a Christmas tree. “Really? Can we get ice cream?” I chuckled, ruffling her hair. “Ice cream, toys, whatever

Chapter 123 Lucas’s Pov“Here it is,” I said, handing the small tissue with Daphne’s hair to the doctor. My voice was calm, but my heart raced like a runaway train. The doctor nodded, taking the sample carefully. “We’ll run the tests and get back to you as soon as possible, Mr. Collins,” he said with a reassuring tone. “Thanks,” I muttered, leaving the hospital. As I walked to my car, my mind was swirling with questions. "If Daphne is my daughter, how?" Sienna and I had lost our baby three years ago. The pain of that memory made my chest ache. I drove to the office, trying to distract myself by diving into work. I reviewed documents, made calls, and attended a few meetings. But no matter how much I tried to focus, my mind kept drifting back to Daphne. A few hours later, my phone buzzed. It was a message from the hospital: “Your test results are ready. Please visit us at your earliest convenience.”My breath caught. This was it. The moment I’d been waiting for. I excused

Chapter 124 Sienna’s Pov“Daphne, are you ready for school?” I called out as I packed her lunch. “No, Mommy!” she yelled back, her voice weak and dramatic. I frowned, walking to her room. She was lying in bed, her small face scrunched up in mock agony. “What’s wrong?” I asked, placing my hand on her forehead. “I feel sick,” she said with an exaggerated sigh, holding her stomach. I narrowed my eyes, instantly suspicious. “Daphne, are you playing a prank on me?” Her lips twitched, betraying a smile she was trying to hide. “Daphne…” I said in a warning tone. She burst into laughter, throwing the blanket off. “Okay, fine! I’m not sick!” I let out an exasperated sigh, lightly smacking her on the arm. “You little rascal! Don’t scare me like that!” Daphne giggled uncontrollably, grabbing her backpack. “Let’s go, Mommy!” At school, everything seemed normal until I turned to leave. That’s when I noticed a group of kids surrounding Daphne near the playground. One of them

Chapter 125Ryan’s Pov“She really left with David?” I muttered to myself, pacing around my living room I wasn’t used to this, the feeling of being rejected. It gnawed at me. Sienna was different from the others, and I wasn’t ready to give up. I decided to visit her, hoping to set things straight and show her how serious I was. When I arrived at her house, I knocked lightly, half-hoping she wouldn’t open the door. But after a few moments, the door swung open, and there she was, looking exhausted but as beautiful as ever. “What are you doing here, Ryan?” she asked, her tone wary but not unkind. “I wanted to check on you,” I said, stepping inside without waiting for an invitation. That’s when I saw Daphne lying on the couch, her cheeks flushed and a blanket wrapped around her. “Is she okay?” I asked, concerned creeping into my voice. “She’s fine,” Sienna replied, brushing a strand of hair out of her face. “It’s just a little fever. Probably from the cold. I’ve given her

Chapter 126Sienna’s Pov“Finally!” I snapped as David walked through the door hours later than promised. He looked startled by my tone but quickly composed himself. “I’m sorry, Sienna. Traffic was….” “Traffic?” I interrupted, crossing my arms. “You couldn’t even call? Do you know what I’ve dealt with today?” David blinked, clearly taken aback. “Okay, what’s going on? What happened?” I sighed, dropping my hands to my sides. “Ryan happened. And his… whatever she was,” I said, pacing the room. “Some woman barged in here, called me a whore, and said she was pregnant with his child.” David’s face darkened. “He brought someone like that to your house? With Daphne here?” “Exactly,” I said, throwing up my hands. “And she had the audacity to attack me in my own home!” David stepped closer, his expression softening. “Sienna, I’m sorry you had to deal with that. You shouldn’t have to put up with any of this.” I sighed again, the tension in my shoulders easing slightly. “Thanks,

Chapter 167 Lucas’s Pov I didn’t expect to see her again. I thought she was gone, vanquished from my life after everything that had happened. But there she was, standing in my office, as if she hadn’t just been humiliated and thrown out like the mess she was. Lisa. I froze for a moment when I saw her, my heart immediately sinking into my stomach. She was standing by my desk, her posture stiff, her eyes flashing with the kind of determination I had seen before. The kind that always led to trouble. “Lisa,” I said, trying to keep my voice calm, but inside I was seething. "How did you get out? I thought you were locked up." She smiled—no, it wasn’t a smile. It was a grin. A grin that made my blood run cold. “You didn’t think I’d just disappear, did you?” she said, her voice laced with venom. “Someone helped me out. I’m not as easily dealt with as you think, Lucas." I could feel my jaw tightening. I had no idea who had helped her, or why, but I didn’t have the time or patience for

Chapter 166 Sienna’s PovFor the first time in what felt like forever, I could finally smile. I could feel the weight lifting off my shoulders, and for the first time in so long, I felt… free. The past few weeks had been filled with tension, uncertainty, and fear, but now, now, it was over. The battle had been fought, and we had won.Watching Lisa humiliated in front of everyone was a small victory that tasted sweeter than I could have imagined. It wasn’t just about the public disgrace or the satisfaction of seeing her fall from grace, it was about what it meant. It meant that Lucas and I were finally in control. It meant that there was no one left to interfere with our happiness, no one who could threaten what we had built together. And I was going to enjoy every moment of it.I stood by Lucas’s side, my heart swelling with pride as he defended our marriage, defended our family. He had always been strong, but in that moment, I saw something more. He wasn’t just fighting for me, he
The CEO’s Ex-wife Returns Chapter 165
Chapter 165 Lucas’s PovThe evening had been chaotic. Everything seemed to spiral out of control from the moment I saw Sienna’s face, pale and tipsy, as David helped her out of the room. I couldn’t believe that someone had tried something like that. The audacity! I was beyond furious, but there was a part of me that was just relieved to have Sienna back in my arms. As we left the place, I couldn’t help but feel a strange sense of dread rising in my chest. I had to protect her from people like that and I needed to find out who the person was, from people like Lisa, people who wanted to use her, hurt her, manipulate her. When we finally got home, I helped Sienna into the house. She was still a bit unsteady on her feet, and I couldn’t bear the thought of her being so vulnerable. I had to make sure she was okay, make sure she rested. But as I led her to the bedroom, she clung to me like I was her lifeline. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to be close to her, God, I did, but I couldn’t h
The CEO’s Ex-wife Returns Chapter 164
Chapter 164 Max’s PovI wasn’t expecting it. Not at all. The way Lucas and Sienna got along so easily, the way they were so comfortable with each other, it threw me off. They were acting as if they had never been torn apart, as if all the mistakes, all the pain from their past, had just… disappeared. I had always known them as two people who couldn’t quite get it right. Two people who hurt each other, who played games, who couldn’t see past their own flaws. And yet, here they were, acting like they were perfect for each other. It pissed me off, but it also made me think. They were blind. Both of them. They had no idea how deeply flawed they were, how much they had hurt each other, and yet they were acting as if everything was fine. It wasn’t fine. I knew it wasn’t. People didn’t just forget their scars, their mistakes. People didn’t just get over the past without confronting it. They were deluding themselves, and I wasn’t going to let them get away with it.I knew Lucas wasn’t so

Chapter 163 Lucas’s Pov The morning started quietly. The kind of peaceful morning that I hadn’t had in a long time. Sienna was in her element, moving around the kitchen with a grace that never ceased to amaze me. She made sure Daphne had her breakfast first, of course, ensuring our daughter started her day with a smile. I watched her in the kitchen, and for a moment, I just stood there, taking it all in. “Lucas, I made your lunch box,” Sienna said, turning to me with a smile. “I packed some sandwiches and fruit for you. You’ll need it for the office.”“Thanks, Sienna,” I said, a small smile playing on my lips. She always took care of the little things, making sure everything ran smoothly. She had this way of making life feel easy, even when things were complicated.I grabbed the lunch box from the counter and placed a kiss on her cheek before heading to the door. “I’ll be back later. I’ll take care of things at the office.”Sienna nodded, her eyes warm. “We’re going to visit my c

Chapter 162 Sienna's PovThe knock at the door startled me. It was abrupt, loud, and it sounded so urgent. Lucas was already standing up before I could even move. He placed a gentle hand on my back, guiding me to stand beside him. I could feel the tension in his muscles, the way his body stiffened as he prepared for whatever was about to unfold. I looked up at him, wondering who could be knocking at this hour.Before I could even ask, the door swung open, and in walked none other than Uncle Max. His presence filled the room instantly, tall, broad-shouldered, and with that all-too-familiar smirk on his face. I hadn’t seen him in a while, but something about the way he barged in made my stomach tighten. I had no idea what to expect from him. “Uncle Max!” I said, trying to sound calm, though a part of me was still unsettled by his sudden arrival.Lucas didn’t waste any time. He stepped in front of me, putting himself between me and Max, his stance was protective. I appreciated it
The CEO’s Ex-wife Returns Chapter 161
Chapter 161 Lucas's PovI knew. I knew it was Lisa behind everything that had happened. The attack, the ambush, the entire ordeal, it all pointed to her. I didn’t need to be a detective to connect the dots. After all, Lisa had never been the type to let go of something she thought was hers. She wasn’t done with me, she never would be. But I was done with her. And this time, I wasn’t going to let her hurt Sienna or Daphne. I wouldn’t let anyone harm my family again.The doctors had discharged me from the hospital earlier that morning. I’d been lucky, too lucky, if you asked me. I still had a gash in my side, a bruise on my jaw, and the aches that came with a fight I hadn’t been prepared for. But I was alive. And more than that, I was determined to protect my family. I couldn’t let them be vulnerable, not when Lisa was out there somewhere, lurking in the shadows.So, I’d arranged for a high-security detail to watch over Sienna and Daphne. I knew Sienna was strong, but I couldn’t bea

Chapter 160 Lucas's PovI could feel it. Every time Sienna looked at me, the warmth in her gaze, the way her smile lingered just a little longer than it used to. It was subtle, but it was there. The walls she'd built around her heart were slowly crumbling, and I couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief, and a little fear too. I hurt her more than once, and though I could sense she was falling for me again, I knew I had no right to ask for forgiveness. But I couldn’t help myself. I wanted this. I wanted us again.Today, I wanted to show her just how much I cared. It was a rare thing, this peace, and I wasn’t going to let it slip away. So, I took them both, Sienna and Daphne, out for the day. We spent the morning at a park, just the three of us. No drama, no complications. Daphne was full of energy, running around and laughing, and Sienna… Sienna was more relaxed than I had seen her in a long time. She was smiling, her eyes lighting up every time Daphne pulled her into some new adve
