The Ceo Wants Me Back After Divorce Chapter Sixty-eight
Chapter 68Zora’s point of view We were done with dinner, and Derrick left for his room, he complained of a slight headache he was having, and just needed to rest a little. So I was left alone in the living room, I was so bored staying there so I went to the balcony to sit for a while. Ana and I video-chatted, and we talked for a long while to the point I was hoping Derrick wouldn't barge in and see me on a call with Derrick. Ariana will definitely call me mother when he steps in.I really wanted Derrick back but won't it be complicated? Accepting him back with so much to think about and a lot to say. I am not ready for it, please.We finally disconnected as we were done talking. The only thing that pains me right now is Austin. So ever since I traveled and left that house without taking Ana along he hasn't even visited her for once. Ana told me several times she calls him, it's either his busy or not in town or rather at work. She told me how she dislikes Austin now. I'm so wor

Chapter 69Zora’s point of view I didn’t realize I was smiling so much when he said that. “Alright then,” I said and looked out the window. He drove to most of the beautiful places I hadn’t seen before. To know the beauty of this city is always at night. We got to a place, where there were trees everywhere. How did Derrick know about these places? “Alright, let’s drop off here.” He uttered. “How come you knew about these places? When you never step out of the house except work.” I asked him and he laughed a little. “I have my ways of finding out, Zora.” He smiled. “You stay here.” He said and left the car, he walked to my door and opened it. I smiled and walked out of the car and he closed the door. “Let’s go.” He smiled and I nodded. We walked in and I noticed how everywhere was so dark. “Why is everywhere so dark?” I asked Derrick and he held my hand. “Should I make it brighter?” He asked and I furrowed my eyebrows. “How can you make it brighter?.” I asked him. “I will

Chapter 70Derrick’s Point Of View Zora took me to an eatery to have lunch. Although I was quite angry at her, that was so nice and smart of her because I was starving already. We were done eating, I was about to settle the bills but Zora disagreed, wanting to pay instead. She insisted to the point I couldn't stop her anymore, so I allowed her to pay. While heading to the car I couldn't hold it anymore so I asked her why she was doing all of this. She was so honest, she said to make me feel better and she was concerned because I didn't eat anything in the morning. That made me happy, at least she is concerned about me, even if I am rejected. We got home afterward. We were seated in the living room discussing though, talking about some random things and laughing at the funny part. We both sat on a different couch but we were still a little close. One thing I also learned about Zora is that she loves talking, especially when she is very comfortable with you and I love how she t

Chapter 71Derrick’s point of view “She will call you back, okay? She is busy at work now.” I said to Ariana. “Okay,” she replied and I hung up. Zora hid this from me? Why? Why would she? I know what I did in the past was horrible but that doesn't mean she has to hide something like this from me. I was so annoyed. This means she never got rid of that pregnancy, she struggled alone with that child. Ariana, Ariana is my child. My sweet little Angel, now I know the reason why I couldn't stop getting attached to that little girl. I could remember how I wished I was Ariana’s dad not knowing she was really my child, my daughter. Zora, why would you be so selfish? She returned and I wasn't happy at all. “What's wrong?” She asked me as she walked closer. “How could you do this to me, Zora?” After all these years of hoping for a child not knowing I have one. How painful is this!“What do you mean?” She asked, I tried to hold back my tears, after all these years. I didn't even watch

Chapter 72Derrick's point of view The next day I left for work, immediately I got to work, and my staff members welcomed me back as I went in. I went over to Lee’s office. I'd like to go to my office last. “Mr Derrick, welcome back man.” Lee and I shook hands and finally sat. We talked about a few things that were work-related, and I also told him about the things Zora and I worked on during our stay there. “Okay let's leave that aside for now, so what about Zora, so any news about you both?” Lee is always eager to hear. “Nothing is going on between us, even when you thought we were getting close, that closeness is over,” I revealed to him and he frowned. “What are you talking about?” He asked me and I laughed softly. “I have a child with Zora, she has been hiding her away from me for all these years.” He looked at me with so much surprise on his face as I spoke up to him.“What are you saying, Derrick?” He looked extremely shocked. Immediately my mind flashed back to when sh

Chapter 73Zora’s point of view. Immediately he said that I gasped, how did he know? Where did he find out? Who told Derrick Ariana is my daughter? “I need an answer from you Zora!” He shouted, calling me back to reality. “Why have you been keeping my daughter away from me all these years?!” He added he looked so angry.He spoke like I was the one who deliberately left when he wanted me to leave for a long time. I reminded him of how he rejected Ariana, right from when she was unborn and his ranting voice was calm. I advised him never to come close to Ariana and even if she doesn’t know him yet, I told him how she hates him and never wants to see him. I walked away, I should take a cab back home, surprisingly he came after me and took me home. I went to my room immediately after we got home. How did he find out about this? I have always kept this a secret from him, how did it just get so open to him, who must have told him that?Is it Sophia? That isn’t possible. I can’t even

Chapter 74Zora’s point of view As she said that I was quite shocked, I was expecting to hear that. I guess a better heart than I do. No matter how Derrick has changed I still don't want to give him another chance. I felt really bad, and I spoke so rudely to him the other day, maybe I should just let me see Ariana, even if Derrick and I don't come back as a couple, I should just give him a chance to have a relationship with his daughter, yes that's what I will do. Two days later on a Sunday evening, I got a call from Derrick. I picked up and we both greeted ourselves. “Uhm, Zora I apologize for the way I spoke to you the other day, I know I sounded harsh, I'm sorry.” His voice was calm and he sounded sincere so I accepted his apology. “I’d like to see you, if you'd be free now I'd be glad.” He continued. Is it still about Ariana?I asked him if there was any problem. “Everything is fine… so can u see you this evening?” He asked again. “Alright.” I just have to agree and I wi

Chapter 75Derrick’s point of view Ever since I told Ana that I was her real father, I have been so troubled by the way she acted. It feels like she hates me now, even worse than the way Zora hates me. “You should talk to Zora about it,” Lee advised but I disagreed immediately. “Zora doesn't even know that I have known her daughter for a while now, and if she finds out, she might not let me see her,” I explained to him. I was so restless, that I couldn't concentrate on whatever I was doing. I can't imagine being hated by my child, that's the last thing I'll ever want in my life. And now this is happening? Ana doesn't even want to speak to me. “I suggest you talk to Zora, even if you don't tell her directly about knowing her daughter, now she knows that you know about Ana, you can tell her how badly you want Ana and want to know her,” Lee suggested, and I was buying the idea gradually. “Yes, I think you’re right on this one, I will go with that because I appreciate any to see

Chapter 99Derrick’s point of view I woke up in a hospital, and I found a nurse close to me. “Mr Derrick, you are finally awake, um, sit back I'll go call the doctor, okay?” She said and hurriedly ran out of the room. I felt a sting pain in my back, for how long have I been in bed? With the reaction on her face, it probably might have been a long time. All I remember was how I got shot. After a few minutes, the doctor walked in, with so much surprise on his face. “Finally, Mr Derrick, you're awake.” He smiled and did a little check-up on me. “Doctor for how long have I been unconscious?” I asked him. “For over a week and a few days.” He replied, I was so shocked, suddenly I remembered how I got shot. “Ana!” I held the Doctor’s hand immediately as I remembered I was with her. “They haven't come yet, she will probably come later.” He said and I slowly let go of his hand. That means she is safe. How did I get here, who helped us out of there?“Doctor, is there anyone around a

Chapter 98Zora’s point of view “What hospital?” My voice sounded so faint. “Let’s go there now,” Stacy said and we got into the car and she drove away. Finally, we got to the hospital and rushed in and I was taken to the room Ana was in. “Mummy.” She stood up from her bed and rushed to me and I squatted and hugged her so tightly, kissing her forehead passionately. “My Ana, my baby.” Tears left my eyes as she was brought back to me safely. “How are you, my child? Were you hurt anywhere?” I asked her, looking all over her body. “I’m fine, Mum, Daddy made sure of that, but I’m scared, is Daddy still alive, he was shot by those evil men.” She cried out and I cleaned the tears from her eyes. “Daddy, will be alright, nothing will happen to him, okay?” I tried to encourage her but I also was scared of losing him. I met with Lee and Collin. “Zora, how have you been? I hope Austin didn't hurt you?” Lee asked and shook my head.“He didn't,” I said, but it felt like it was so hard for

Chapter 97Zora’s point of view “Drive safely, sweetie.” He said after letting me go outside his house, I managed to walk into my car, like that way the first day I learned how to walk. When I finally got in, I cried so badly, there was no hope, no one to run to, how could I get out of the mess, I'd have to do what he said or else my family would be ruined. I cried till I couldn't cry more and I finally drove out heading to my house. I got home and found Stacy and Sophia in the living room, immediately Stacy saw me she rushed to me and hugged me tightly. “I know it's hard for you right now but you need to be strong.” She spoke as she finally let go of me and cleaned my eyes. “Mrs Zora.” Sophia looked so worried and she hugged me too and finally let go. They took me to the nearest couch and I sat.“I'm glad you are back home safely, I hope he didn't do anything to you?” Sophia asked me. “Austin has really brought distress to my life, now he insists on getting married to him tomo

Chapter 96Zora’s point of view “What do you mean Ana has been kidnapped?” I couldn't feel my legs anymore after hearing that, immediately I fell to the ground as she explained to me what happened. “Austin! Austin has done enough!” I shouted and most of my staff, including the people in the conference hall all came out. “Mrs Zora, what's wrong? What happened?” Sophia rushed to me while I kept on crying. “My daughter, Austin, has taken my daughter away from me.” I shouldn't sit back and cry, I suddenly cleaned my eyes, and Sophia exclaimed as she heard me say that. “Sophia, we aren't having the meeting anymore.” I stood up from the ground and left for my office to take a few things before leaving. Austin can’t just plug off my eyes and go scot-free. Getting close to my office I noticed Sophia was behind me saying a few things which I wasn't paying attention to. “Mrs. Zora, we need to Inform, Derrick about this.” Sophia suddenly suggested I look up to her. “It's not everything

Chapter 95Derrick’s point of view Immediately I woke up from that terrible dream. I hope Ana is safe, quickly I took my phone and called Zora and hearing from the way she spoke there was nothing wrong but still I asked her about Ana and I found out that she was on her way to pick her up. I begged her to drive safely and revealed to her the dream I just had and immediately she freaked out. “Zora, listen, you need to drive safely, Ana will be right there waiting for you to come to pick her up,” I said to her and she managed to calm herself down. “Alright, I’ll talk to you later,” I said and we hung up, that was the mistake I made, I shouldn’t have told her about the dream, I just hoped she drove safely. I told Stacy and Collin about the dream I had about Ana. “Don't you think Austin is planning on doing it?” Stacy said and Collin agreed with her. “I don't think so, what would be his gain if does that? After all, Zora wants to play along by accepting to marry him so he wouldn'

Chapter 94Zora’s point of view “What do you mean by that?” I asked him as he spoke so rudely and I noticed how he paused for a while. “Zora, do not make me do something silly, you can’t ruin my plans now, you will have to obey me, we are having this wedding on the day we have both planned it.” His voice was so cold and fierce. “Are you forcing me to do what I don't want, that's never happening, Austin…” He abruptly hung up the call when I was still talking. What kind of man is this? He was never like this, what made him change? He would not do anything stupid he can not try it. I dropped down my phone and continued with my work. During lunchtime I left the office and went over to where Mia was kept, although I told Derrick I'd be going there, he wanted to come with me but I declined, I wanted to face her alone. Getting there I was told she had a visitor already, I was quite surprised, so I waited. After a while, I saw Austin heading out. “Austin?” So he was the visitor the

Chapter 93Zora’s point of view “Zora, listen, you need to drive safely, Ana will be right there waiting for you to come pick her up.” He encouraged me and I took it in and calmed myself down. “Are you close to her school already?” He asked me. “Yes I am, I'll call you later, okay?” I said, I just wanted to think straight. “Yes, when you pick her up and get home let me know, okay?” He spoke, he also sounded worried but he didn't want it to be so obvious. “Alright, I will,” I said and he disconnected. I gulped down and tried my best to concentrate on driving, finally I got to her school. “Where is Ana?” I met her teacher and she directed me to where they were kept. From afar I saw Ana talking and laughing with her friends and my mind was finally calm, I could finally breathe properly through my nostrils. “Ana?” I called her and she left them and ran up to me. “Mummy, you came to take me home, it's been a while since you did that, I'm so happy seeing you here.” She laughed and I

Chapter 92Zora’s point of view Derrick left after having dinner with Ana and me. I noticed how Ana looked so happy around him, more than Austin and I'm so glad about it. “Mummy I'd be the happiest if Daddy comes to stay with us, we will finally be complete,” Ana said as Derrick drove out, her attention was still built on Derrick’s car as she spoke with so much plaster of smile on her face. “He can't stay with us, Ana.” I laughed and shook my head as we walked in. “Why can’t he?” Ana asked with a frown face. “You'll know soon, okay.” I kissed her cheek as we sat on the couch. Surprisingly she didn't pester me much about the question, after a while she slept off and I took her to her room and laid her properly on the bed. The next day I got a call from Austin. “Hey babe, good morning.” He sounded calm and immediately I wondered what he wanted to say. Whenever he sounds that way, it’s either he has a favor to ask or something else that would be of benefit to him. “Hey, is every

Chapter 91Zora’s point of view “Zora, what are you saying? I love you both so much and I want to be a good husband to you and a good father to Ana.” He spoke like he meant whatever he said, which I know is totally a lie. “It's fine, I feel better hearing that.” I lied and formed a smile and he hugged me. “I want the best for us Zora, please I want you to stay away from Derrick, I don't want him to harm you or Ana, try to avoid him in any way you can, okay?” He spoke slowly with a feathery voice and he rubbed my hair slowly as he spoke. I pulled out of the hug and just nodded. “You also need to be careful, your life might also be in danger,” I said to him and he furrowed. “Mine isn't so important, you and Ana’s life is, so try to watch out, if anything happens don't forget to call me.” He spoke and I nodded once. “And about Ana, I asked Mary about her and she told me Ana is sleeping, it seems like she has been detouring away from me these past few days.” He uttered, looking a l
