The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 300 - It’s Understandable, but I Don’t Want Her
Ethel had a lot to say, and no one stopped her.“I can’t believe you are putting all the blame on me because I decided to endure everything. I had three miscarriages, Lucas.”The revelation stunned everyone except the one to whom it involved.“All because of your girlfriends parading our house, I lost three pregnancies,” she yelled.Lucas was beginning to feel ashamed, but there was more.“Aside from the mental and emotional trauma, the last one kicked me in the stomach when I just got back from the hospital.”Ethel was finding it hard to hold it in this time, allowing the tears to stream down her cheeks.The more she remembered, the more she realized had foolish she had been to continue staying in the marriage because of her love for Lucas.Zora passed her a tissue and was glad that Ezra had decided to give Lucas’s money to Ethel, even without knowing what the poor woman had been through.No woman deserves to go through this. It was already painful to know that your husband was cheat
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 301 – You two will regret this
As a woman, she knew that some pregnancies revealed no symptoms until almost the second trimester, but Lucas scoffed.“If she’s pregnant even now, I’m sure it would be someone else’s child.”Everyone was shocked, knowing that Lucas wanted a child to claim a bigger portion of the inheritance.As it stands, he might just be spitting nonsense to prevent Ezra from giving that money to Ethel.“You will regret this, and don’t tell me that I didn’t warn you,” Ezra said seriously, but it did nothing to move Lucas.“Ezrah, I know my wife better than you do.”Ezrah knew it wasn’t true. He could tell a good woman when he sees one, judging from his experiences with Piper and Zora.He could now detect a cunning woman like a book, but Ethel was not it.“I have lost my woman before, and trust me, it's true what they say: you don’t know what you have until you lose it,” Ezrah said in a soft tone, hoping to appeal to Lucas’s conscience, but that also did not seem to be working.“There are many fish in
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 302 – Your sins are just too much
“From the looks of it, these two never lost. You might be the one losing again, Lucas,” Ethan said.Lucas shook his head, disappointed that Ethan was not in sync with him for the first time.Since this was a matter concerning his wife, Lucas felt that he had the upper hand in everything.For the first time, Zora and Ezrah were making very big mistakes. Still, he remembered that Ethan equally had his own rotten skeletons.“Impossible. Stop pretending to be self-righteous. When are you going to tell them that you broke up with your fiancé because of your new girlfriend?”The information dump was like a tidal wave, which Ethan seemed to take rather coolly.“Breaking up with my fiancé is better than divorcing your wife, and if you haven’t heard, a broken relationship is always better than a broken marriage.”“Well, choosing another woman over the one you claimed to love and even going to the extent of giving a ring is just as repulsive,” Lucas pointed out. Ethan shook his head.“You have
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 303 – Can I have a dance?
“Ezrah, it didn’t mean anything,” Zora cut him off, but that only confirmed it. Ezrah did not like this, feeling like a gold digger.“You made the transfer from your personal account, and that is unacceptable. You have to replace that money, please.”She must have initiated it, but it was still Ezrah’s mess, and he did not like her using her money when he was there to spoil her.All along, he thought she had transferred the money she gave Ethel from the company account, but since he did not receive any debit alert, it meant otherwise.Zora stood on her toes and kissed him. He responded passionately to her kisses but did not allow it to cloud his judgment even as she spoke playfully.“If you’ve put everything under my name, then it’s up to me to use it the way I want.”A pout decorated her lips as she spoke seductively, tracing her finger over his muscular chest.“Don’t forget that as soon as we get married, you are also entitled to everything belonging to me.”Ezrah was enchanted by h
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 304 – I’m not in the mood
“Hey, can I have a dance? I’m Lucas, Ezrah’s elder brother,” Lucas said. Margo stared in Ezrah and Zora’s direction.She had never met Ezrah’s brothers because they were never on good terms with Ezrah, and having been away for so long, she had never heard about their bad reports.Lake was already boiling, but due to Ezrah, he had not attempted to stop Lucas. However, Margo made him proud this time.“Sorry, but I’m not in the mood.”Lucas felt his bubble of pride burst for being rejected like that. He was not asking her out, just for a dance, and she rejected him.After all, he had a girlfriend, but she could not attend the event with him because she did not want to be introduced as his girlfriend, in an attempt to pressure Lucas into marrying her.Ethel had not attended the wedding because she had a family emergency and had to travel to the countryside.The divorce procedures went smoothly, and Ethel was the one who insisted on not wanting anything from him.He had to give her a thumb
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 305 – I want you to be my woman
“Hello, sweetie, how are you doing?” Ethan said coyly as he leaned over Ethel’s desk. She frowned imperceptibly and leaned back to prevent their faces from colliding before she answered.“What do you want, and don’t call me that,” she replied sternly, which somehow made Ethan smile.“You look rather cute when you frown like that.”Ethel was getting really uncomfortable with the whole situation.“Look, I have so much to do, so you better speak now or forever hold your peace.”“Hahahaha,” Ethan laughed. “I knew it. You have a great sense of humor. But here is the deal. I want you to keep all my money for me,” he said seriously, but Ethel found it rather ridiculous.“Excuse me, do I look like a bank? Why would I keep your money?”“Because I want you to be my woman. You know, like how Zora has everything under her name? It would be impossible for Ezrah to bring in another woman because that means he's gonna lose everything,” Ethan explained. Ethel shook her head.“Ezrah and Zora are about
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 306 - Just three months
Ethel thought through Ethan’s words. Even if she believed him, her heart was not ready to take on another journey of love.Besides, she never felt attracted to Ethan. It was rather unfortunate that he had been secretly in love with her for years but her heart was already dead to things like that.“Ethan, I’m so sorry you felt that way but I don’t feel attracted to you.”Ethan was heartbroken. He wanted to do this in their parent's house but lacked the courage. Then thinking about it for days, he gathered the courage, only to be rejected. Knowing he hadn’t been of good behavior, that was because of the grudge he had against Ezrah but that was also out of the way.If only Ethel could give him a chance, he knew he could give her all the happiness Lucas failed to give her. All he needed was a chance to prove. “I’m not asking you to love me, Ethel. Just give me the chance to love you.”Ethel shook her head. With her newfound peace, her only focus was on being a better version of hers
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 307 - There is Going to Be a Change
“Zora, I think I’ve stressed myself too much for a first pregnancy. My panty is wet, and I know it’s blood,” Coco whispered as she wrapped her arms around Zora.She also did not use bridesmaids but hosted the wedding in her mansion. She was going to sell it after the wedding to invest the money into something else since she was going to live with Lake. This was a memory she was going to have in a house she initially thought she was going to live in with River, but he was now in prison, and Lake was too well-to-do to take advantage of it.Coco had bonded so much with Margo, and the girl insisted on taking the job as maid of honor, but Zora was still her best friend, so the only way was for Margo to become Zora’s maid of honor.Now, something was happening that might distract the whole wedding.Zora quickly dialed Ezrah’s number. The ringing of his phone raised a lot of eyebrows, and Ezrah was about to switch it off when he saw Zora’s ID and answered it.“Ezrah, create an excuse for L

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
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 318 – I loved you before, but not anymore
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 CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 316 – Where am I?
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
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 315 – No one is going to judge you for it
“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
The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife Chapter 314 – You brought this upon yourself
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
