“Are you sure about this?” Zane asked Bianca seriously, adding, “I already intended to reward her in cash. She’s a friend of Coco, meaning she might just be broke and did it to win your favor.”On the hospital bed, Bianca was upset by Zane’s words. Before now, all she thought about her was her fame and glamorous impending wedding. However, being on the verge of losing her life, she realized that there were more important things than fame and money.Being human mattered more than bossing people around. No one was able to help her except the very person Zane had fired because of her, so what if Mr. Newman had not intervened? Michelle would not have survived, so Bianca could have lost her life.“How can you even think that? If she wanted my favor, she wouldn’t have pulled my hair, and not after Mr. Newman stood up for her after you fired her. She saved my life, so giving up a role of 10 million is nothing. I already have two more scripts worth more than that and can still get more.”Zane
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 21 – Before Signing the Contract
“So, what if I agree to help you grasp the script? Would you still refuse the offer?” Zora thought about the question thoroughly. This was going to stretch her as she never had a passion for acting but just decided to try it out because Coco proposed it.Suddenly landing a major role? What if she messed up the production? As the perfectionist she was, that would kill her.“No,” she replied over the phone. Everyone around was disappointed as they felt that she was the only deserving person there was. She saved Bianca and her audition was great.Bianca mused over the situation, took a deep breath before saying, “there is always a first time for everything. What if you go with the minor role and realize that you are even better than the one who took up the lead role? Trust me, you would regret it for the rest of your life.”Zora thought once more about her revenge plan. What if something goes wrong with her contract with Mr. Newman and she ends up on the losing side? At this moment, she

What Zora did not expect was for the man to project something from his phone. On the wall in front of her, there was a comatose man in a luxurious room, on a luxurious bed. There was a nanny attending to him, making her understand that he was watching through the CCTV cameras in his house.Zora was uneasy. “There is a camera in his bedroom? I want to have a separate room and also bring my friend along,” she placed her demand.Mr. Newman was slightly uncomfortable since there wasn’t going to be anything intimate. His reason for keeping the camera there was solely up to him.To not ruin the contract, he said, “The cameras were only installed there because he was single. If you sign the papers, it would be deactivated. As for your friend, we can make the arrangement.”Zora trusted him and therefore fished for a pen in her handbag, resisted a little, but signed the contract in the end. Then, she took a copy and gave one to Mr. Ne

“Mistress, it's dinner time and the table is set,” a maid said politely to Zora, who frowned a little. She had just come out of the shower, wearing loose, silky pants and pajamas. They were neither transparent nor tight. Due to the summer heat, she left her hair loose, opting not to use the dryer. Even in a loveless marriage, she was addressed as madam and mistress was inappropriate in a comatose marriage. Not hesitating, and as a woman who once managed a home, she corrected the maid. “Call me Madam. I’m not a mistress but Sebastian’s wife.” The maid was reluctant, as the nanny had instructed them in the kitchen not to address the woman as Madam, and also specified that Sebastian would send Michelle out of the house as soon as he woke up. She, who once wanted Sebastian dead, now wanted him to live just so he could kick Michelle out of the mansion. Since she was married to Sebastian by Mr. Newman, she couldn't be easily gotten rid of or manipulated. The nanny felt threatened by Mic
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 24 - What happened to her?
“Michelle, or whatever your name is, don’t you think you are stepping out of line?” Amir was cold and condescending, underestimating Michelle and feeling it was time to put her in her place. Michelle remained unfazed, knowing that Amir was powerless. “I think I need a pair of glasses because I don’t see a line drawn,” she said sarcastically. Coco and the maids giggled, and even though Amir glared at them, the maids put on serious expressions while Coco remained indifferent. “Feel free to be sarcastic, but stay away from the nanny’s affairs. I have decided that she joins us for dinner every night, and that is final,” Amir slammed his hand on the table in anger, causing Coco, the nanny, and the maids to panic. Zora, unfazed, spoke leisurely, “Really? Alright. As Sebastian’s wife and co-owner of this house, I declare that all maids and domestic workers join the dining table.” Amir glared at the maids, causing them to shiver. One of them spoke up, “But Madam, there isn’t enough food to
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 25 - I Miss My Wife
“Piper? What happened to her?” Ezrah asked worriedly from the other end of the line. He must have broken things off with Piper, but he still cared for her. She was his first love, and despite her constant disobedience, she never truly offended him.“I don’t know all the details, but I heard it was a suicide attempt. Her mother found her unconscious in the jacuzzi in a pool of blood. She had been feeling depressed lately, and we thought she would get over it. We never expected her to slit her fingers and await death.”Ezrah closed his eyes in deep thought. Why did all the women in his life resort to death as an escape from him? At least Piper was still alive. “Which hospital is she in?”There was a brief pause on the line before Mr. Henshaw replied. “You don’t have to come. It's a four-hour drive. I'll just check on her and arrange another day for the meeting,” he said sternly.Though he wanted Ezrah and Piper to get married, Piper’s obsession was out of hand, and he didn’t want to enc
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 26 - Water
"Are you sure about what you are saying? After administering the antidote, our contract ends. I no longer want to be involved in this," the doctor said sternly. For the few times he went for his routine weekly checks on Sebastian, he didn't like Michelle's scrutiny of all that he was doing, questioning his skills as a doctor. As soon as he mentioned something, Michelle would G****e it to find out what it was and what it does if she was new to it. Worse, she insisted on being there throughout all the doctor's visits, which made him very uncomfortable. "Are you going to resign from your job?" Amir asked with a confused expression, taking the words out of the nanny's mouth. The doctor was honest, afraid of being nipped in the bud. "Yes. Your cousin's wife asks too many questions. I'm afraid she doesn't trust me. But as for the antidote, since my next check on him is in a few days, I can administer it to him." Amir was slightly relieved. They wanted Sebastian dead before, but with Mich
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 27 – His sunshine
The voice sounded hoarse, most probably due to lying in bed for months. Zora was excited, knowing that Mr. Newman would be very happy with the news. “You are awake!” The sleep cleared from her eyes, and she immediately went to get the water but realized he couldn’t move. Even with that, his tongue was sharp. “Who are you? What are you doing here? Why am I here? And why can’t I move?” He was throwing the questions continuously like a tennis ball. Zora was overwhelmed, not knowing which to answer first. The contract had been going smoothly, and though she didn’t want Sebastian to wake up in the beginning, her worry for his father made her want him to get better. The fact that they didn’t even know each other ruled out the possibility of them being a real couple. All she felt for him was sympathy. “Drink the water first.” Zora gently fed him the water, and as soon as he had enough, she dialed Mr. Newman’s number. “Dad, Sebastian is awake.” Sebastian had mixed feelings when he hear

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

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
