The CEO’s Ex-wife Returns Chapter 149
Chapter 149 Sienna’s PovI felt like my body weighed a ton when I finally walked through the door of my home. Exhaustion was an understatement. The day had been chaotic, and every muscle in my body ached from running errands and dealing with the people in my life. I dropped my bag on the couch and immediately grabbed my laptop. There were a few emails to send to companies I knew needed consulting, and I wasn’t about to fall behind on my work. As I typed out the last email, I found my thoughts drifting to Ryan. He hadn’t returned any of my calls or texts, which wasn’t like him. My fingers hesitated over the keyboard before I finally grabbed my phone and dialed his number again. “Ryan?” I asked when he finally picked up after several rings. “Sienna,” he said, his voice calm. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to worry you. I’ve already headed out of town. I needed to clear my head.” I sighed in relief. “I was just worried. Are you okay?” “I’m fine. You take care of yourself, Sienna. And

Chapter 150 Lucas’s PovI sat across from Jenny, her sharp eyes scanning my face as I sipped the last of my whiskey. She had been quiet for a while, waiting for me to explain why I looked so distracted. Finally, I sighed and spoke. “I’m not even sure if I still love her,” I admitted, leaning back in my chair. “But I’m sure of one thing; I’m falling for her again. It’s like…I can’t let go. I don’t want to. It’s all I know right now, and I’m holding onto it.” Jenny smirked, setting her glass down. “Well, Lucas, that’s progress. It’s about time you figured out what you want. But I’m guessing this revelation doesn’t make things any easier.” “No,” I said, shaking my head. “Not at all. But I know what I have to do now.” Jenny nodded, her expression softening. “Then go after it. Just remember, you’re not the same man you were. She’s not the same woman either.” We left soon after, her words replaying in my head like a mantra. When I got home, the silence hit me harder than usual. T

Chapter 151Sienna’s PovThe soft buzz of my phone startled me. I reached for it, half-distracted by my thoughts. A message had come in, and as soon as I saw Lucas’s name, my heart tightened. I already knew what it would say. “Good morning, Sienna. Just a reminder to meet me tonight. I’ll come with Daphne. Please, just us.”I let out a breath I didn’t realize I was holding. Part of me had been waiting for this, and another part of me wasn’t ready. Why did he always manage to push his way into my thoughts, even when I swore I had moved on? I sat there staring at the message. There was a small voice in my head whispering that I shouldn’t go, that I should let him feel the cold edge of rejection. But another part of me, a quiet, stubborn part, wanted to be there, alone with him, to see if Lisa was still in the picture, to understand his intentions. For all his mistakes, Lucas was Daphne’s father. And as much as I hated admitting it, he had been acting differently lately, calmer, mo

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 148 Lucas’s Pov"Jenny, you’re okay with taking Daphne out, right?" I asked over the phone, my tone light but distracted. “Of course! Daphne’s adorable,” Jenny responded cheerfully. “I’ll be there in fifteen minutes.” I sighed, trying to shake off the lingering annoyance that Lisa’s recent actions had left behind. I already sent her packing, and honestly, I didn’t have the energy to dwell on it. Right now, all that mattered was spending time with Daphne and enjoying the rare peace I had made with Sienna, even if it was fragile. When Jenny arrived, Daphne’s face lit up. “Aunt Jenny!” she squealed, running into her arms. I chuckled at her excitement and helped Daphne into the car. Jenny settled into the passenger seat, chatting animatedly with Daphne while I drove. I felt a faint sense of relief watching them. Maybe things could be normal, even if just for a day. We decided on a park near a popular cafe for our outing. Daphne couldn’t wait to play, so I carried her t

Chapter 147 Sienna's Pov“Where’s Daphne?” David’s voice pulled me out of my slumber, and as I blinked my eyes open, I realized I was in his arms. I felt disoriented, like I had been asleep for days. “She’s with Lucas,” he said softly, helping me sit upright. “What happened to me?” I asked, brushing a strand of hair from my face. “You fell asleep out of nowhere. You looked so tired, so I didn’t wake you. I thought you needed the rest.” I blinked again, still trying to piece together my thoughts. “How long was I asleep?” “For hours,” David said, smiling gently. “I figured it was time to take you home anyway.” His warmth and kindness were always comforting, but a small pang of unease settled in my chest at the mention of Lucas and Daphne. “Daphne’s still with Lucas?” “Yes,” David confirmed, his tone careful. “Are you okay with that? I mean...him taking her?” I hesitated. “She’s his daughter, after all. I just...I don’t want him thinking he can swoop in and claim owner

Chapter 146 Lucas's Pov“Lucas…” Her voice was soft, almost like a whisper, as she turned slightly in her sleep. I froze, standing at the edge of the bed in Sienna’s room, watching her closely. She was fast asleep, her face peaceful yet slightly flushed from exhaustion. Hearing my name again stirred something deep inside me. This was the second time she’d murmured it, the first when we were at the bar. I leaned closer, careful not to wake her, wondering if it was my imagination. “Sienna…” I whispered back, but she didn’t stir. She shifted again, her lips moving faintly, and my name escaped her lips once more. My chest tightened, and I pulled back. As much as I wanted to be near her, I wouldn’t let it look like I was taking advantage of her in such a vulnerable state. I sighed deeply, brushing a hand through my hair. “This is not the right time, Lucas.”Leaving her room, I found David nearby, pacing anxiously in the hallway. “She’s still asleep,” I said quietly. “I need to

Chapter 145Ryan’s Pov“I love you, Sienna,” I whispered under my breath as I stood near the edge of the patio, just within earshot of Sienna and Lucas’s conversation. My jaw tightened at Lucas’s pathetic attempt to win her back. His groveling made my stomach churn, but her responses kept me glued in place, hoping she’d shut him down for good. “You had your chance,” I muttered to myself, gripping the edge of the wooden railing. “Ryan?” I turned sharply to see David approaching. He had a quizzical expression, his arms crossed. “What are you doing here?” he asked, his gaze flicking toward Sienna and Lucas. “Nothing,” I replied quickly. “Just making sure Lucas doesn’t pull one of his stunts again.” David frowned. “You’re eavesdropping. That’s not right.” “I’m not eavesdropping,” I said defensively. “I’m looking out for her.” David didn’t look convinced, and I sighed. “Fine. You’re right. It’s not my business. Let’s grab some drinks and cool off,” I suggested, slapping hi

Chapter 144Sienna’s Pov“You are admired beyond measure, and I’m deeply sorry for everything I’ve done to hurt you,” the message read. Along with it came a box of expensive chocolates, a delicate bracelet, and a handwritten letter. I sighed, setting the gifts on the counter. “Lucas,” I muttered to myself. Who else would send such a message? Still, I brushed it off, refusing to let it distract me. I had more pressing matters at hand, packing for the vacation. I called David as I zipped up Daphne’s bag. “We’re all set,” I told him. “Great,” he said, his voice warm. “I’ll pick you both up soon.” But as I ended the call, another thought crossed my mind. If David and Ryan could just get along, this trip might actually be enjoyable. Against my better judgment, I picked up the phone and called Ryan too. “Ryan,” I began, “I was wondering if you’d like to come on the trip with us. Daphne would love to see you.” There was a pause on the other end before he answered. “Of course. If
The CEO’s Ex-wife Returns Chapter 143
Chapter 143Lucas's PovI sighed as I stared at my phone. I had been calling Lisa repeatedly, but every call went unanswered. The realization hit me like a ton of bricks, Lisa was gone for good. “Good riddance,” I muttered under my breath, but even as I said it, loneliness wrapped around me like a cold blanket. My life had become a mess. My company was struggling, my fiancée was gone, and the only people who brought me happiness, Sienna and Daphne, wanted nothing to do with me. Unable to bear the emptiness, I grabbed my keys and headed out to a nearby bar. I sat in a corner, nursing my drink. It was my third glass, and I was already feeling its effects when a cheerful voice interrupted my thoughts. “Mind if I join you?” I looked up to see a woman with short, curly hair and a bright smile. She seemed out of place in the dreary bar, but her energy was contagious. “Sure,” I mumbled, gesturing to the seat beside me. “I’m Jenny,” she said, holding out her hand. “Lucas,” I re
