The Ceo's Ex-Wife Chapter 15: How do I let go?
FLASHBACKLooking at Emily's back, Veronica was so angry that she wanted to catch up with her, but she was stopped by Hunter.She turned to look at Hunter. "Brother?"Hunter looked at her with eyes so cold she was scared. "Don't mess with her."Veronica wanted to argue, but when she looked up and saw Hunter's eyes, she froze for a moment and then frowned. Why would Hunter be defending his ex over his own sister? "She was the one who hit me..."Hunter loosened his grip and raised his head to look at Emily, who was already at the door. He frowned slightly. In just three months, she had become a rebel. And he didn't know why, but this Emily was fascinating. Emily on the other hand, kept moving forward until she got in the car. She didn't even look back at the person behind her. As Pete said, it was not worth it.Dave, who had come to pick Emily up at the dinner glanced at her when she entered the car and remained quiet. After getting into the car, Emily did not say a word. Instead, she t
The Ceo's Ex-Wife Chapter 16: Star!
In just five minutes, the audience was already at a climax. After the performance, there were still people shouting "Encore!" and calls for more resounded. The bandmates who were about to step down looked at each other, and finally, their eyes fell on Emily's face. Emily smiled, knowing why they were looking at her. "Why not?"She went back to the drum stand, picked up her drumsticks, and for another twenty minutes, the band entertained the club, giving it their best. It was only after 20 minutes that the four of them came down from the stage. They had never been so passionate in the past ten years. Dave was still unsatisfied. "At this stage, I think we can form a band and make a debut. That was brilliant!" Emily took the warm water from Colin's hand and glanced at Dave. "You won't say that when we do debut." With Dave, one couldn't deny that she was into music and bass guitar. However, should they really debut and were straitja
The Ceo's Ex-Wife Chapter 1: I'm done, let's get a divorce
Hunter strode into his office, angry, tired and frustrated with the world and a particular woman. He hadn't slept throughout the night and now he was staring at his secretary's seat, empty where Emily should have been. He had thought she would crawl back to him as she always did. But three days after her disappearing stunt he still hadn't heard anything from her. He had been sure that she would be back, crying and begging for his forgiveness as she always did. But now, she was proving different and he did not like it, Emily was becoming someone he did not know. But How dare she? He thought angrily. After trying to kill Carla, killing his unborn nephew and almost injuring his mother, she thought she could go scout-free, doing anything she could and thinking she could get away with it. Or did she think he would come chasing after her just because she walked out of his house? Well, if that was her plan, he would prove her terribly wrong. No one offended the Thorne family and went scot
The Ceo's Ex-Wife Chapter 2: The Beginning
Three days earlier… “Atish!!!” Emily shook badly again. She had sneezed so hard she was sure that her cheek would start bleeding again. The cold, coupled with the fact that she was wearing a sleeveless dinner gown which was certainly not intended to be worn in Winter without a coat. Around Emily, the Thorne servants scurried about as they went about their separate business. Some were preparing the house for dinner, others were busy providing whatever the doctors asked for. Not even the head doctor had spared her a glance even though he had known her for the three years she had been part of the family. Still, he was never her doctor - - no one considered Emily good enough to warrant an expensive doctor. Emily had been a member of the Thorne family for three years, but she might as well be less regarded than Hunter’s sister's cat. She was nothing close to Carla, Hunter's sister-in-law. Unlike his hatred for Emily, Hunter loved Carla much more than anything in the world. An hour ag
The Ceo's Ex-Wife Chapter 3: Free From My Toxic Home
Hunter's mother was pacing in the main hall when Emily more or less hobbled there, still aching from her wounds. In the room was Veronica, Hunter's sister who was already glaring at her, Hunter who was angrily looking anywhere except at her and Antoine Thorne, Hunter's mother herself, and the family's matriarch, Antoine Thorne. If Emily had any illusions that someone in the family was going to listen to her and save her, she knew how impossible it was now. She missed Hunter's father, if he had been there, she would have been rest assured that he would save her. But now... Antoine Thorne had never been one to smile, but the look on her face now was terrible enough to curdle the blood of a demon, never mind those demons never had blood. Her perfectly made-up face was drawn up in a snarl, that would have stopped Emily in her tracks if the slap hadn’t from Carla hadn't. “You evil bitch! How dare you try to kill my sister-in-law out of envy? Just because you can’t have a child doesn’t me
The Ceo's Ex-Wife Chapter 4: Uh, Oh
Dave was staring at Emily, “Are you okay, you look pale, is it Hunter? Did something happen to him? Why are you dressed like this in the cold? Bestie, please say something.” When Emily had walked out of the Thorne mansion with nothing, not even her phone, she hadn’t been thinking of anything except that she had to get away before she killed someone, which would most likely be herself. However, she was there, standing on the road, barefooted and cold with no phone or clothing or even her books. So, when she saw a teenage girl riding her bicycle, she had no choice but to beg to use the girl’s phone to call the only person in the world who she could trust, Dave. And now he was here, looking concernedly at her as though she wasn’t the same girl who had abandoned him for three years. How stupid was she to think that abandoning her life, her family and her friends would make her more acceptable to the Thornes? “Dave, I’m okay, I just needed someone and the only one that came to mind was
The Ceo's Ex-Wife Chapter 5: Sign the Damn Paper, please
Luckily, Emily had only been weak from the cold and the wounds. When Emily first opened her eyes in the hospital, the sterile white room felt more like a prison than a place of healing. Her body ached, but it was the weight on her heart that was truly unbearable. She lay there, motionless, listening to the hushed whispers of the nurses as they discussed her. The words cut deep, each one a reminder of the twisted narrative that had been spun against her. Her hand instinctively went to her stomach, feeling the bandages, and she knew that nothing would ever be the same. "But how evil could she be to kill a little fetus because of envy?" one of the nurses asked, hissing contemptuously. "You know how wicked poor people can be." The other nurse spat, not knowing that the person they were talking about had been listening to them. "Imagine her doing that to them after they took her in and made her who she is today. People can be so ungrateful." Tears rushed into Emily's eyes. They didn’t k
The Ceo's Ex-Wife Chapter 6: Home
Hunter tossed the document back on the table, and laughed bitterly,“Not a single penny? Who does she suddenly think she is?”Well, did she think he was going to divorce her just because she asked for it, she was joking?……..When Joseph came in, Hunter was standing in front of his glass walls overlooking the city, a cigarette in his hand and the divorce agreement burning in the trash can. Joe’s heart skipped, left him, this was a dangerous time to approach Hunter, but if he didn’t let him know about the meeting, he might as well lose his job.“Sir, the meeting has already commenced, and the directors are waiting.”Hunter turned, and glared at Joe with his dark eyes, so cold they sent chills down Joe’s spine, but instead of yelling at him or flinging a book or anything he could lay his hands on at Joe, Hunter simply snarled at him,“I’ll be with them shortly.”Frowning, he broke the cigarette, threw it into the same trash can where the remains of the divorce agreement were still burni

The Ceo's Ex-Wife Hunter... and Emily?
The loud noise from inside the First Star club had reached Hunter before he could enter it. He hated clubs because of the atmosphere, but he hated the noise the most, and the din inside the club was exactly what contaminated his ears.Pete, who had dragged Hunter along, just wanted to see what the well-known Summer Band could do and wait for Hunter to see the amazing change of his ex-wife on the stage.In the beginning, Emily's friend, brimming with confidence, had said something excitedly. Pete snorted thinking,“Bro, you have normal features, maybe you're a little good-looking, but what's with the shameless attitude on stage?”No sooner had the stage opened than Pete was made to eat his own words! Maybe he had been a little quick to judge the guy, because from what he was seeing and listening to, the boy had talent!He used to be a hot-blooded youth, and though he was old now - no, mature - it did not mean that he'd had no dreams when he was young.The four people on the stage were
The Ceo's Ex-Wife Chapter 13: The Real Emily?
While Emily was still boiling with anger about what had happened, she was dragged by Dave to the First Star. She wouldn't have gone if it had been someone else, but it was Dave's birthday, so she tried to put the Thornes out of her mind.Dave was still a party king and it was clear that he was also a regular at First Star. There were many people, and almost all of them knew each other given the exclusivity of First Star's members.After dinner, Emily began to prepare for the party. Not a partygoer, her clothes were expensive, but not fabulous. She was wearing a black blouse with a slim, striped suit. She wore a pair of seven-centimetre high heels under her black trousers. She looked every inch a professional and less the celebrant's friend. Dave was going to be incensed, she chuckled.Inside the club, Emily removed

After the dinner, Emily stayed back after the others had left. When the dinner was over, she and her secretary turned and went to the restroom.Hunter quietly watched as Emily stood up, getting ready to go to the restroom, when she noticed him staring, he looked away expressionlessly and walked out.Joseph followed Hunter out, carefully trying not to let Hunter even hear him breathing. He had noticed the effect Emily and anything about her had on Hunter and he didn’t think he wanted to face his anger.Of all the things that could happen, Emily whom they were searching everywhere for, had just appeared in front of them tonight as the manager of the Prosperity Corp. And not only was she really different from the Emily Thorne, Joseph had known, she was now confident.
The Ceo's Ex-Wife Chapter 11: Past?
The love story of the second son of the Thorne family and his sister-in-law had been on the Internet for three days. Those who had laughed at Emily for being over-confident and wanting to get rich by marrying a wealthy man were now the ones defending her online.Mrs. Thorne had ordered Hunter to find Emily even if he had to dig three feet into the ground to get her to stop the scandal. However, Joseph had tried every means but still could not find where Emily had gone after leaving New York City.As for Emily's personal account on Instagram, except for the apology message she sent on the day she left, all the previous posts had been deleted, and no other posts had been sent after that.The picture along with the apology was a divorce certificate of Emily and Hunter. Every day, more and more people got on Emily's Ins
The Ceo's Ex-Wife Chapter 10: Time for Truth
The news reached Hunter in no time. After watching the video clip of what had happened that night, he sat there with a cold expression on his face and did not say a word for a long time.An hour after the incident, after hours of searching, someone found Emily's Instagram account, with all the posts deleted, leaving only a message she had posted an hour ago: I'm sorry, I was wrong.Emily had apologized as he wished, but it was a little ironic and ridiculous now in view of all the things that had been revealed.Joseph stood in front of Hunter's desk. After he finished speaking, he kept his head down, scared to look at Hunter and see the anger that he must have been feeling.The atmosphere in the office was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe. Hunter's face was literally covered with frost, and his black eyes were as dark as the sky before a heavy rain."Get rid of the news within half an hour!"Joe froze for a moment. "But sir, we can't remove it.""What do you mean you can't rem
The Ceo's Ex-Wife Chapter 9: Revenge?
When Emily returned to Dave's apartment, Dave was already wide awake. He stood behind the door and looked at her excitedly."How was it? Have you gotten a divorce? Can you show me the divorce certificate? Did the B"*stard come? "He had been looking forward to Emily's divorce from Hunter. Seeing him like this, Emily couldn't help but smile. She took out the divorce certificate from her bag and gave it to him."Chill guy, I'm divorced."When Dave saw the divorce certificate, he almost cried. "Finally! This is the best news I've heard since forever! It's so good! From now on, you're a single beautiful girl! Emily, do you think we should go have fun tonight?"Emily shook her head. "No, I ha
