“Ezrah, what is going on?”Lake was disturbed. Though he had been there during Ezrah’s worst moments, he had never seen the man lose himself like this before.The emotions on his face were a scattered blend of fear, anger, resentment, panic, and loss. Lake could not make out which of these emotions was most dominant in his best friend.Without a second thought, he followed Ezrah, who had stormed out of the office like he was crazy, not having changed from his previous clothes with dry blood stains on them.Ezrah did not answer him, instead dialing Michelle’s number again, but it was switched off, so he called his spy on the phone. “Go to her house now. Rush is there.”The desperate sound of his voice startled the spy as he responded in a rather calm tone. “What? I didn’t see anything strange.”Ezrah was desperate and annoyed. There might be exits and entrances to the mansion unknown to his spy, which Rush had used without him knowing.“I said go there now. I was talking to her on the

Coco heard her bodyguard speaking on the phone when she entered her room after returning from work, feeling exhausted from the day."Well noted. I will instruct them to stay clear of Michelle’s room," the bodyguard said.Coco panicked. She had no idea who the bodyguard was talking to, but if they were to stay clear of Michelle’s room, anyone could enter.Recalling Michelle's desire to replace their bodyguards, it was not difficult to piece everything together.The only person who could give that order was Rush. Even though Michelle had informed her of Rush's arrest, Coco still felt uneasy.After hearing footsteps indicating the bodyguard had retired for the night, she stepped out of her room in flip-flops, making sure to bring her gun with her.Michelle’s room was just opposite hers, and sometimes they even slept in the same bed.Leaning against the door, her suspicions were confirmed when she heard Rush’s voice.Knowing the bodyguards were on his side, she fired a shot before saying,

Landon was at a crossroads. Using force at this moment was no longer an option, seeing how Rush’s finger was on the trigger.A lot of things could go wrong if he made a wrong move, and what would he tell Ezrah if Michelle got injured?It was time for him to utilize the psychology he had studied, though he never specialized in it.“Rush, I can prove to you that what you feel for Michelle is not love.”Rush was furious, but for a moment, his attention was drawn away from Michelle to the middle-aged man.Landon seemed respectable, and Rush felt that Ezrah nailed it in his choice for a spy. The man was mature, not sounding accusing but rather as if he wanted to offer help.Rush knew that the woman he loved was Odette and his obsession with Michelle was because she looked like Odette, but what was the difference?“How would you know? Have you ever been in unrequited love before?”Landon swallowed tightly and spoke carefully. “If you love her, Rush, how could you point a gun at her head? Do
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 126 - Can I get a hug?”
As the man who caused the greatest pain in her life, Ezrah wanted to give back to Michelle the very things he emotionally took from her. He wanted Michelle’s happiness to only lie with him to ease all the pain he caused her.If she would let him, he would make it up to her by being the perfect husband she wanted. However, if he followed that passion, then there would be no difference between him and Rush. He stared at Michelle, and a blend of emotions flashed in his eyes, though she kept her gaze away from him.“If she says so herself, without being forced and from the depth of her heart that she has fallen for you, I would respect her decision but I will continue to keep an eye on her.” Ezrah’s response was inconclusive, meaning he would not believe it, though he won’t stop her, but would not lose hope. As to how Rush understood it, no one could tell. “Will you get married again? To another woman?”Rush’s question confirmed that he understood what Ezrah said and was forcing him
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 127 – I Don't Need You to Show Me Kindness
Ezrah was not liking this, but Rush had been by Michelle’s side for most of her life after faking her death so how could Ezrah understand the depth of his relationship with Michelle?His gaze lowered to the floor so he would not see the hug, as that would make him uncomfortable.“Am I obligated to do so?” Michelle asked, unwilling to comply and Ezrah’s gaze lifted, following her silhouette.An invisible smirk formed on the corner of Ezrah’s lips when he saw how unmoved Michelle was about it.Rush had a bitter smile on his face.How foolish of him to even desire it after messing up so badly?“It’s alright if you don’t want to. I hope we meet again in a more comfortable environment.”Knowing that Rush was talking about the possibility of them meeting again in Los Angeles since Michelle did not plan to stay long in New York, she was suddenly encased with the thought of relocating somewhere else that was neither New York nor Los Angeles.Giving no response, Rush left with his men, includi
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 128 – That was not a smile
“What are those conditions? I’m all ears.”Ezrah was slightly amused. The fact that she was willing to accept Landon excited him greatly.Michelle was unable to resist the offer because of how Rush escaped the cops. She might be wealthy but still lacking in connections like Ezrah.“That Landon would be on my payroll and you break all contacts with him.”A puzzled frown creased Ezrah’s brows at the request. “I don’t understand.”Michelle took a deep breath and began to explain, and funny enough, the moment she began doing so, everyone walked slowly out of the room.Only Ezrah remained. He was sure it was Lake’s idea to get everyone out to give him some privacy with Michelle.That best friend of his was so amazing but then, Lake might have also done it to have some time with Coco.That’s, hitting two beds with one stone. Michelle spoke directly.“Ezrah, I won’t allow you to use Landon to spy on me to know my whereabouts and whatnot.”A faint smile crossed Ezrah’s lips. That was exactly
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 129 – Whose side are you on?
Michelle was furious and spoke sternly. “Ezrah, these kinds of tricks would only work on teenagers, not on me.” Ezrah’s expression was sorrowful to have been caught so fast, but then he remembered how he usually shunned her back then whenever she wanted to offer help with his clothes. After a long passionate night, Michelle would think that things would be different between them and offer to help Ezrah with his tie or suit jacket. Sadly, he would return to being the indifferent man who married her by contract. She paused and yelled, “Lake, you better come here now, or I’ll kill your friend.” The door pushed open instantly, and Lake rushed into the room, afraid that things had gotten out of hand. Michelle knew that if she did not use that attempt, then she would have no choice but to wear Ezrah’s shirt for him.“What is going on? Ezrah, what have you done to make her angry?” Lake was confused and asked. Still, he was surprised to see Ezrah bare-chested and Michelle trying to look

Throughout Sebastian’s stay in her apartment, he never even shook her hand, so this was strange. It was a brief hug, but both parties admitted internally that it felt different.Sebastian pulled away and stared at her, knowing he was going to miss her. The hug was not for him or Madison but rather his subtle message to Lake.“You are a good woman, Madi, please wait for me.” Sebastian turned around and entered the private jet, leaving Madison confused. “What does he mean by that?” Being a man, Lake did not expect his plans of pairing them together to work but could not help feeling that things were going in that direction. If there was anyone to return warmth to Sebastian’s scarred heart, then it was Madison, especially when she had also been deeply hurt before. Lake stared teasingly at her. “Didn’t you tell me to hook you up? I guess my help was not needed. The magnet was faster to attract.” Sebastian was nice. Really nice. He was also very attractive, and her friendship with M

Congratulations, Mr. Newman. Your wife is one month pregnant," the doctor declared, the atmosphere filled with excitement. The bond they shared brought them unparalleled happiness, each genuinely happy for their friends, including little Esther. Zora and Madison spent time with Coco, leaving Esther with the men. The triplets were adorable, the boys taking after their father and the girl after her mother. "I swear, Zora, this is my first and last time. It hurts like a bitch," Coco said, as Zora and Madison laughed. "I heard women were designed for this. You did amazing, mama. Congratulations," Zora kissed her on the forehead and said. Months later, Zora and Ezrah welcomed their twins, Eugene and Eugenia Gannon, and five months after, Madison had a baby boy, Justin. Esther was the best big sister anyone could ask for. Ethan and Ethel welcomed a daughter, and a year later, they had twins, two girls. Lucas never remarried, unable to get over his ex-wife. One day, he received a messa

The day before, Rush had called to inform Ezrah and Zora that he and Odette had a son. Due to the distance, they had not yet visited, and now, he was meeting Lake at the hospital without Coco by his side.“Ezrah, what are you doing here?” Lake asked, his joy radiating on his face, but Ezrah was surprised to see him so happy at the hospital.“My wife fainted, and what are you doing here? I don’t remember the hospital being a place for happy people.”Lake laughed and made a joyful revelation. “My wife had triplets. Two boys and one girl. I was just about to call you.”Ezrah recalled Lake wishing for triplets; it seemed he got his heart's desire and something to keep his parents busy.“Congratulations, Lake, you got what you always wanted.”“Yeah, we found happiness. Congratulations to us, but what’s wrong with Zora?” Lake asked again, his joy fading due to the news about Zora, but Ezrah’s explanation lifted his spirits.“I suspect she’s pregnant. She refused to take the pregnancy test, a

“Lucas, you are insane. I will never choose you over Ethan, and I will never have anything to do with you again,” Ethel said through gritted teeth. Lucas was furious.“Then you leave me no choice,” he yelled and pulled the towel from her.She ran to seek cover in the closet, but he caught her and pulled her to his chest.Ethel felt ashamed and furious as her naked body pressed against his.She tried to free herself, but he was stronger and also drunk.“Why do you want to hide from me? We’ve had each other many times,” he cooed in her ear, but all she felt was disgust and anger.“We were married then, but not anymore. Just let me go,” she tried to push him away to no avail as he tried to force some alcohol down her throat.“I was ready to be kept on the side, but you refused.”After successfully getting the alcohol down her throat and watching her frown as he forced her to swallow it, his lips were closing in on hers.Ethel felt a burning sensation down her throat, and as a woman who n

Chapter 318 – I loved you before, but not anymoreA week ago, Ethel arrived home with Ethan, but he was called away to take care of a few things because Ezrah was still on his honeymoon.The past month and a few weeks had been peaceful, and with Ethel moving in with Ethan, she had no need for a bodyguard. However, on this particular night, things did not seem the same after Ethan left.Unlike his brothers, Ethan never had his domestic staff live with him, but after his mansion is ready, that will change.They were not only planning their wedding but also their future together. All that they wanted for their kids, they wanted to ensure they had it in the mansion.Ethel had gone to shower after a tiring day at work only to find Lucas seated on her and Ethan’s bed.“Jesus, what are you doing here?” She halted in her steps, right in front of the shower room door.Lucas looked drunk, which made Ethel scared. Before she could reach for her phone to call Ethan, Lucas took it from her and inst

“Why? Don’t you like it?” Ezrah asked teasingly. Zora screamed, “Like it? I love it, Ezrah. I’m a lover of pools, but I’ve never seen anything like this before.”She couldn’t take her eyes off her room. Everything was natural, with multiple pools scattered around.For the first time, words failed her when she tried to describe the aesthetics of the room.It looked as if it were carved out of natural rocks.Even the footsteps around were made of natural black stones, and the water was crystal clear. She could also see the Mediterranean Sea in the distance.“To clear up your confusion, we are at Papa’s beach, and this is one of the most beautiful beaches in Greece. I thought you would love this as a honeymoon location.”Zora, though rich, had been too focused on business and revenge before. Honestly, she had never heard of this place.“I’m fascinated to be here.”“Great. Let me explain further. This is Calilo on the Greek Island of IOS. There are only 35 suites in this hotel, and each r

The silence was thick in the air as everybody waited for Ethel’s response, which was not forthcoming.Feeling like he was just being used, Ethan had the understanding that she could not bring herself to trust him.“Dad, she doesn’t love me,” he said on behalf of Ethel. Lucas smiled, but his smile soon went stiff when Ethel responded.“I do, Ethan.”She saw Ethan freeze with a shocked look in his eyes and explained.“I mean, I never imagined having anything to do with my ex-husband’s kid brother, but I’m ready to give it a try.”“You do?” Ethan was so shocked that he lifted her in the air by the waist. “I love you so much, Ethel. I will prove it to you.”Their lips met once again, but they were rudely interrupted by Lucas. “Dad, how can you condone this? It’s shameful.”He could not believe how his submissive housewife could take an interest in his kid brother. This was unexpected.Ethel should have rejected Ethan and not this. However, his mother spoke this time.“You know what, Lucas

“Kate?” Lucas turned in the direction of Ethel’s gaze, calling out accusingly, but Kate made a 180-degree turn and was headed to the exit when the man she came with blocked her.It was obvious that she was trying to escape the accusation, but everyone was interested in hearing what she had to say.Homewreckers were not exactly welcome at occasions like this, as every woman with a man of her own began to get protective.“You seem to be running away,” the man she came with said, not pleased by the revelation.Lucas walked towards her and questioned, “Did you kick her in the stomach?”Kate was covered in so much shame that her lips trembled because of all the gazes on her and replied, “It was an accident.”“No, it wasn’t,” Ethel interrupted, not upset but wanting to prove a point.“You said I didn’t deserve to carry his child because he didn’t love me. You were right because he divorced me,” Ethel smiled, no longer feeling the pain of losing her scum husband.Only Lucas had a pained expr

From a distance, Ezrah and Zora watched everything unfold.“Lucas, I need to put him in his place. Can you give me a moment?” Ezrah was about to go to the scene of the incident when Zora held him back.“No. Didn't you say that Ethan seemed genuine with his feelings? Let’s see how he handles this situation.”Ezrah was unsure if Ethan could come out of this cleanly, reminding Zora,“You told me to protect Ethel or better still, let me get her bodyguard.”Zora shook her head. “Sometimes, the heart doesn’t know what it wants until the opportunity presents itself. Let Ethan deal with it.”Ezrah smiled and relented. “Alright. If you say so.”They heard Lucas mocking Ethan and Ethel. “Why? Can’t you kiss your woman? Sebastian has kissed Madison like three times already, even though they aren’t the bride and groom.”Indirectly, he was taking away the opportunity for Ethan to use the event as an excuse for his inability to kiss Ethel.“Lucas, how we choose to define our relationship is none of
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 313 – This woman is taken
Everyone was excited for Ezrah and Zora, and right after the cake cutting, the couple's dance was announced.Ezrah and Zora had just left the dance floor and were speaking to some guests when other couples took over.Ethan saw it as the perfect opportunity to dance with Ethel, but there were other men eyeing her as well, and they were not afraid to show it.To make matters worse, they reached her before him.“Hi, I’m Rick,” one of them said. Ethan didn't recognize him from their company, which could mean he might be one of Zora’s co-stars.Ethan didn't like this but knew he had to be a gentleman to win Ethel's favor.“Ethel,” she responded with a forced smile, trying to be polite, and somehow, she was glad to see Ethan nearby.It was Ezrah’s birthday, and his focus would only be on his wife. Her bodyguard was there to protect her from danger, not lovers, so he was with the other bodyguards.The only man she had loved all her life was Lucas, and she had never had the chance to mingle b
