The CEO’s Ex-wife Returns Chapter 1
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.

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

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

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

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 7Sienna POVI didn’t expect to bump into someone who greatly reminded me of my past.“How long had it been? Four years after you left?” Uncle Max jaw slackened completely seeing me. After I left, no one knew my whereabouts, not even Lucas. Even if he wanted to search for me, he had nowhere to search. Lucas knew nothing about my real identity. I left everything behind just to marry him, but I ended up regretting that. “What are you doing here, Uncle Max?” I asked, looking surprised to see him as well. I had chosen the particular hotel knowing it was one of their family’s rival hotels, and I thought I would never run into anyone I knew there, but surprisingly I met him there.“When did you get back, Sienna?” The man asked, and he looked surprised to see me as well.I inhaled sharply as all the memory came running to my head. All the memories I had tried so hard to forget. “How have you been doing, Sienna? We need to talk.” He added.“What have you been doing?” He asked, lo

Chapter 8Sienna POVDifferent questions ran through my mind. I couldn’t understand how Daphne and Lucas crossed paths. But one thing I knew was that my anger was more visible towards Lucas. I hate him so much. I abhorred him so much. Lucas gazed tore away from me all of a sudden, and they rested on Daphne. He seemed to say some words to Daphne, and he quietly grabbed her by her hands. My brows snapped together furiously, and I was totally annoyed. “I said, Let go of her now!” I didn’t know when I screamed so loud.I stomped angrily towards him, ignoring the loud echoes of my footsteps on the marble floor.Daphne's eyes were fixed on me, and I could see the little fear in her. She seemed a little scared of me, and I hated that, especially seeing how close she was to Lucas, whom she had probably just met. Had I really been a bad mother to her?“Mom.. “ Daphne called out. Hearing that Lucas looked completely flustered and shocked. He immediately took a glance back at Daphne.“Mom?”

Chapter 137 Lucas’s Pov“I should have never announced the engagement,” I muttered, staring at the glass of whiskey in my hand. The dim light in my study cast long shadows across the room, mirroring the mess my life had become. Lisa’s behavior was driving me to the edge. Every day, she found new ways to make me regret the decision. Late-night clubbing, coming home drunk, ignoring me completely, it was as if she had forgotten the engagement even existed. I hadn’t seen her sober in days, and the rare moments we spoke were filled with arguments. My company was in shambles. Once a prestigious name, it had fallen off the list of top 20 most recognized businesses in the country. I had lost workers, clients, and my own confidence. The people I used to rely on had abandoned me one by one, leaving me to pick up the pieces alone. The loneliness was suffocating. I closed my eyes, and Sienna’s face filled my mind. Her strength, her determination, the way she carried herself despite the w

Chapter 136 Sienna’s Pov“Why can’t things ever stay simple?” I muttered under my breath. My thoughts were in a mess, circling back to David storming out the other day. I hadn’t seen him this angry before, and it left a sour taste in my mouth. I knew it was my fault. I’d pushed him away when all he wanted was to be there for me. But could I blame myself entirely? Every time someone got close, they seemed to want more than I was ready to give. Why couldn’t any of them just stay without growing feelings for me? Was I the problem? I sank into the couch, gripping the fabric of my skirt as my mind spiraled. First, Ryan had professed his love; now David was furious, and then there was Lucas, who had somehow decided it was his right to waltz back into our lives. The audacity of these men! My thoughts were so loud, I barely noticed Daphne calling me from across the room. “Mommy!” her voice was faint in the background of my mind, muffled by my relentless overthinking. What did they

Chapter 135Ryan's Pov. "I can't just give up," I muttered to myself, staring at the pile of gifts I’d meticulously selected for Sienna. Everything was top-tier, from the restaurant’s financial plans to the imported decorations I had delivered. She deserved the best, and if she couldn’t see that yet, I was determined to make her. I arrived at her doorstep with everything packed neatly in my car. My heart raced as I approached the door, gifts in hand. It had been days since I last saw her, and each moment without her felt like an eternity. When Sienna opened the door, her face was a mix of surprise and frustration. “What is all this, Ryan?” she asked, her voice heavy with irritation. “It’s for you,” I said, grinning as I held out the gifts. “I wanted to show you how much you mean to me.” She stepped back, narrowing her eyes. “Ryan, I told you already. Stop wasting your money. This…” she gestured to the boxes in my hands, “...this isn’t what I need.” “But it’s what you

Chapter 134 Sienna’s Pov I glanced at the clock as I stirred the pot on the stove. David had texted earlier, saying he’d be back soon, and I wanted everything to be perfect. It wasn’t much, just something simple, warm, and welcoming. The least I could do for someone who had gone out of his way to make Daphne and me feel safe and cared for. The aroma of roasted chicken and vegetables filled the kitchen as I set the table. Daphne peeked in, her little nose wrinkling as she sniffed the air. “Is Uncle David coming?” she asked, her voice filled with excitement. “Yes, sweetheart,” I said, smiling. “He’ll be here soon.” She clapped her hands and spun around in delight before running back to her room. Her happiness was contagious, but I couldn’t deny the flutter of nerves in my chest. When David finally arrived, Daphne bolted to the door, throwing herself into his arms. “Uncle David!” she squealed, giggling as he lifted her into the air. “Hey, princess,” he said, hugging h

Chapter 133Sienna’s POVThe day had already been heavy with emotions, and I wasn’t ready for another disruption. Yet, when the doorbell rang and I saw Uncle Max standing there, I froze in surprise. “Uncle Max?” I said cautiously, opening the door wider. “Sienna,” he greeted, his voice calm but firm as he stepped inside uninvited. I blinked, shutting the door behind him. “What are you doing here?” He smiled faintly. “I came to see how you were holding up. After everything Lucas has put you through, I’d say you’re handling it better than most would.” I folded my arms, trying to maintain some composure. “How do you even know about any of this?” He shrugged, sitting down on the couch like he owned the place. “I’m his uncle, remember? He told me everything.” That caught me off guard. Lucas and Uncle Max were never close. Why would he share something so personal with him? I sat down across from him, my brows furrowed. “I find it hard to believe that Lucas would confide in

Chapter 132Sienna’s Pov "David, I need your help,” I said firmly as I set down my coffee mug on the counter. David glanced up from his book, his brows furrowed in concern. “What’s going on?” “It’s Lucas,” I said, exhaling heavily. “He’s losing it. He’s been showing up everywhere, and I don’t want him near Daphne anymore. I’m serious, David. If you see him anywhere near her, send him away. I can’t let a man like him anywhere close to my daughter.” David nodded slowly, setting his book aside. “I’ll take care of it. You know I’ll protect both of you.” “Thank you,” I said, giving him a faint smile. “I just need some peace of mind.” But Lucas didn’t make it easy. Everywhere I turned, he seemed to be there. Sometimes I’d catch him outside the school gates, watching as Daphne skipped inside. Other times, he’d be at the grocery store, conveniently “bumping” into me. His presence was suffocating, and each time I saw him, the guilt in his eyes made my blood boil. “I’m sorry, S

Chapter 131 Lucas’s Pov“What is wrong with you, Lucas?” Lisa’s voice screeched through the house the moment I walked in. I barely had the energy to acknowledge her. My mind was still tangled in the heated argument I’d had with Sienna. The image of her yelling at me, tears streaming down her face, was burned into my memory. “Lucas!” Lisa yelled again, stepping in front of me and blocking my path. I stopped, narrowing my eyes at her. “What now, Lisa?” Her eyes flared with anger. “What now? Really? You’ve been distant for weeks, and now Sienna’s back in town, stirring up all kinds of trouble. And you expect me to just sit here and take it?” “Leave her out of this,” I snapped, my voice low and dangerous. She scoffed, crossing her arms. “Oh, leave her out of it? You think I don’t see what’s going on? You’re obsessed with her, Lucas! You’ve been acting like a moody teenager ever since you found out she was back.” “I’m not doing this right now,” I said, brushing past her.

Chapter 130Sienna’s PovAfter Ryan left, I leaned back against the couch, letting out a deep sigh. My mind was a mess, tangled with emotions I didn’t want to confront. Just as I was beginning to find some peace, another knock echoed through the house. I frowned, standing up. “Ryan, if you forgot something…” I muttered as I walked to the door. But when I opened it, my heart sank. “Lucas,” I said, my voice sharp with surprise. He stood there, his expression unreadable but his eyes burning with intensity. “Sienna,” he said calmly, though his voice was firm. “We need to talk.” “No, we don’t,” I snapped, trying to shut the door, but he wedged his foot in. “Yes, we do,” he insisted, stepping inside. I backed away, glaring at him. “What the hell are you doing here?” “I know the truth, Sienna,” he said, his tone low and steady. “Daphne is my daughter.” His words struck like lightning, freezing me in place. “What?” I said, laughing bitterly. “Where did you get that ridi

Chapter 129Sienna’s PovThe day was quiet, and I was grateful for the calmness. Daphne was busy with her coloring book, humming to herself as I folded laundry in the living room. The doorbell rang suddenly, breaking the peace. “Who could that be?” I muttered, walking toward the door. When I opened it, my breath caught. Standing there, dressed in a casual button-down and jeans, was Ryan. “Ryan?” I said, blinking in surprise. “Hey, Sienna,” he said with a soft smile. “Mind if I come in?” I hesitated for a moment before stepping aside. “Sure. Come in.” As soon as he walked in, Daphne’s eyes lit up. “Mr. Ryan!” she squealed, dropping her crayons and running to him. Ryan crouched down, opening his arms wide. “Hey, kiddo! How’s my favorite little star doing?” “I’m good!” Daphne said excitedly. “Look at what I drew!” She grabbed her coloring book and proudly showed him her latest creation. Ryan played along, praising her artwork and making her giggle with his exaggerated r
