Ezrah and Lake waited for almost an hour before Coco walked into the office with her personal bodyguard. Her countenance was lukewarm as she walked past them to the secretary’s desk with a faint smile. “Good morning.”

Lake’s gaze of admiration lingered on her as she said a few words to the secretary before going into her office. This was not her actual office but rather one belonging to one of the managers.

Michelle had made that arrangement to get Ezrah to this side of the office building before she came to take him to hers. Unable to work out for the past few days because of Ezrah’s pestering, Michelle thought to use the stairs as a form of exercise.

The bodyguard opened the door for Coco, closing it after she entered and stood by it. Lake was amazed. This was his first time dealing with women in management, and he did not know exactly how he was feeling due to his admiration for Coco.

He might just be biased if he tried to make any analysis. “You are right, Ezrah, it's her. Isn’

  • The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife    Chapter 45 – Dealing with Him

    Lake, who had never courted a woman before, found himself being blunter than he had intended, unable to retract his words.“Hi, I’m a fan. Can I have your contact?”Coco gave him the same rehearsed response she typically reserved for men who tried to hit on her.“If you want to discuss anything other than business, I'm sorry, but I already have a boyfriend.”Lake felt disappointed, having been rejected before he even had a chance to start. This was his first attempt, and unfortunately, it ended in rejection.He was not the type of man to intrude on another man's relationship to sabotage it. “My apologies. I've been single for so long that I forgot how unlikely it is for a woman like you to be single. Please have a nice day.”Coco raised her eyebrows as she watched him walk out the door without looking back. It was the first time a man had given up on her after just one try. Most men would have continued to pester her simply because she didn't have a ring on her finger.With that, she

    Michelle had a headache. Coco and River’s relationship put her emotions on a roller coaster. “Get the information to Coco. Only she can handle him,” Michelle said in annoyance, her mood destroyed.Michelle began to address the annoyed Ezrah, at the same time Rush was sending a message to Coco. “Mr. Gannon, I apologize for not responding to your previous emails. I was attending to other businesses.”She had already watched the CCTV footage of his conversation with Coco before getting him out of the office to climb five flights of stairs with her. Ezrah was not buying that excuse.“You needn’t have to respond to the messages yourself. Your secretary would have done it if you so instructed her. Cut the crap, Zora, where have you been?” He asked directly. She had changed so much, and he wondered what had happened to her, coupled with all the wealth she had.The investigator had said she was an actress and a businesswoman. There was nothing about her private life, but something else caught

  • The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife   Chapter 47 – I will never fall in love with Ezrah again

    “I’m waiting until she closes. I want to know where she lives,” Ezrah said with determination. He sat in his car and brought out his MacBook. Meeting her again, he did not expect her to make him so upset, and he lost control.Ezrah was feeling guilty, but Lake was equally mending his own broken heart. He thought it was love at first sight, but Coco did not give him a chance to even be her friend.“Ezrah, have you now become a stalker? Does Piper know about this?” He channeled his broken heart to taunt his best friend.Piper left that night with Madison, and he did not even bother to check on her. If not for Piper calling the day after to check on him.He was certain that Zora was up to something and wanted to know what exactly it was. Soon, his phone rang. It was Piper’s dad. Anxiety laced his voice.“Ezrah, they just reduced the price even further. Th

    Michelle’s anger was unquenchable. She already knew that Ezrah lingered around, as she had planted a tracker on him when she slapped him. “It’s Ezrah. I already know. Just ignore him.”“He will know for sure that you are Zora,” Coco reminded her, still unable to forget Lake’s behavior. This was the first time somebody left that kind of impression on her.He was a friend of Ezrah, so how different could he be? She felt ashamed to admit that he unknowingly gave her the courage to stand up to River.“I’m not hiding it. It’s about time I get him off my back,” Michelle said seriously. Rush was amused but angry with himself for his impulsive thinking earlier.As soon as Rush drove into Michelle’s parents' house, Ezrah sped up and drove through the automated gate before they shut.“Coco, you can go in and have

    “Madison, Ezrah just left my house. He knows the truth and might confront you about it tomorrow.” Michelle thought it wise to warn Madison since she had denied knowing her at the premiere. Ezrah was too smart not to connect the dots. “Don’t lie to him, and if he fires you, I will create a position for you,” she said seriously. Having everything planned, she was not going to let Madison’s work suffer. Madison, who was still avoiding Phanuel and in a sour mood, forced a smile to hide her pain. “Michelle, thank you for letting me know, but don’t worry. He won’t be able to fire me. I hope he didn’t cause you trouble.” Madison was most certain about that as Ezrah would not be able to work with just anybody. His temperament made it difficult for anyone to satisfy his work ethics. He was also sensible enough not to allow his personal matters to affect their work relationship. “No. I handled him well, and I doubt he would ever show his face here again,” Michelle said sternly. Ezrah never

    With the doorbell continuously ringing, Piper nervously went to check the peephole. Seeing Ezrah, a smile bloomed on her face, and she opened the door, relieved that it wasn’t Sebastian. Perhaps he missed her because she had kept away for a while.“Where are the security men, and why is your phone switched off?” Ezrah’s voice was cold, but Piper could only interpret it to mean he was worried because he could not reach her. Ezrah had only called her phone number after noticing the absence of the security men he hired to watch over her.“I wanted to rest a little. Come in, and let me fix a drink for you,” Piper beamed, letting him in and closing the door. She approached the wine cabinet as Ezrah sat on a single sofa and asked her,“Where are the security men I paid to protect you?” Ezrah was upset, but his voice was lukewarm.Piper picked up a bottle of Vodka, feeling that Ezrah would need it. Adding a drinking glass, she ambled to him with a ready-made excuse. “I found them to be a nui

    “Ezrah, I was with you throughout that time, so could you not have known if I caused it? And are you sure that Michelle is your ex-wife?”Piper did not want to believe it, but Ezrah would not lie about something like that. If Michelle was indeed Zora, then did it mean she had been tricked? All the niceness was just to get something from her, but what could it be?Also, she had let out a lot of information about herself and Ezrah, including her ex-boyfriend. If not for the facial mask, Piper would have been sweating bullets.“She’s your friend, so why don’t you ask her?” Ezrah asked in annoyance before recalling something and saying,“By the way, you are right in saying that you were with me when the accident happened, but I also remember that photos of us got to Zora when there were no cameras in the room. I can’t say that I believe you, but just make sure that your words are true.”Piper’s heart sank. The subtlety of Ezrah’s words was embedded in the fact that he did not trust her. W

    He handed her a box, and she could tell it contained a bracelet, a necklace, or both. She had no interest in opening it to see exactly what was inside.“No, Phan, I don’t need anything from you,” she said, taking a step back. Throughout their relationship, she had bought most of the gifts, and a few times, Phanuel would reciprocate, but what he was good at was pranking her.It had been fun when they played such games, but it wasn't worth her sanity. Even when she saw him with Rachel for the first time, she wanted to believe it was another prank, but it turned out to be real.“Please, it’s worth two million and would clear my conscience. I wanted to give it to you before we ever broke up, but things happened unexpectedly,” Phanuel revealed.Knowing that she wouldn’t accept anything from him after the breakup, he wanted to give it to her, then wait a few days before breaking up, but she happened to see them at the premiere.Phanuel had been coming by every night since then but still had

    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
