The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge CHAPTER 33: Run To Me
Shantelle"Shantelle." I looked at the person who called me and saw Baron. "Why?" My eyes settled on the small plate in his hand. He approached me and handed me the plate that had a slice of dessert. "Can you check this one for me? What do you think is missing?" Baron asked. I reached for the plate and took a bite. I tilted my head and thought for a moment before I concluded. The palatableness is quite alright, but I'm concerned about the sweetness. Albeit it doesn't taste bad, I think that something is missing. "How should I put this into words? I think maybe we should make a slight alteration in the ingredients. Just reduce the amount of sugar and instead add some cream. As for the design, it's adorable, though." As I spoke, I looked intently at the desert. "Let me write down the formulation that needs to be altered," I muttered. I pulled out the pencil inserted in my hair just above my ear and immediately sat down in front of the table. I pulled out a new piece of paper,
The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge CHAPTER 34: In His Arms Again
ShantelleGlancing at the clock, I saw I was already ten minutes late. I hurriedly left my room and almost dashed outside since Gavin's location was a bit far away from my room. When I went out, the sun had already set, and everything was dark, and only a few lights from the hotel and bar gave light to the night. The stars were glistening in the sky, and they shone brightly upon us. I also saw many tourists who walked and roamed everywhere.I almost reached our meeting place, but before I could go there, my phone rang, and when I glanced over it, the caller ID was Gavin. Even though I could already see him, I still accepted his call. He didn't seem to notice that I was not far away from him. He seemed bored waiting for me. His brows were tightly furrowed into a frown - obviously displeased. I stopped in my tracks and spoke as I watched him. "Hello?" "Where are you?" he asked in a tone full of irritation. "I'm still in the hotel," I teased. His expression amused me. The corners
The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge CHAPTER 35: Meeting Her Again
Today is my last day in Hawaii. Finally going back to Stanford... With a smile, I started packing all my things and the souvenirs that I bought to give to my family and friends as well as my company's staff. All the things that I've been taking care of were finally handled. The recipes of the new dishes I formulated had been finalized and approved. Aside from it, I also trained the hotel and restaurant staff, so everything was already settled. The project was already carried out. Later, Gavin would pick me up at the airport, and we had already discussed that I would go straight to his condo. Just thinking about it, I became a nervous wreck. I will stay there from today onwards. And he said that if I want to visit my family, I'm free to do so. He didn't restrict me too much. We're finally going to live together... I couldn't help but think about what would happen once we lived together. When that thought flashed inside my head, I scolded myself. The heat started to creep onto my
The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge CHAPTER 36: Make Him Fall For You
ShantelleNot long after, we arrived at his condo and entered together. He dragged my traveling bag aside and whipped out something from his pocket. "I'll leave before three o'clock. Here's your spare key and the money. Buy groceries and cook for dinner," he said thoughtfully as he handed me the card key along with the stash of cash. "Seriously? When you talk like that, it seems like I'm a maid," I muttered weakly as I accepted the money he gave me.He turned his eyes to me seriously with a frown. "It's your duty as my wife. I'm just asking you to cook and not clean the whole unit.""Okay, Sir," I muttered and pouted. "Stop pouting like that. You have no idea how much it affects me," he said softly as he shook his head. I turned to him in surprise, but he just averted his eyes. "What?" He snapped at me when he saw that I was still looking at him foolishly."Nothing." I don't dare to ask him about his words. I'm afraid that it will just get my hopes up, only to be crushed later on
The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge CHAPTER 37: Plan A Does Work!
ShantelleAs I cooked our dinner, my heart was filled with a sense of expectation because I had just gotten a haircut. It's still a bit long, but the ends of it had layers, and I also got bangs. That was the haircut I opted for. And apart from that, Cara also trimmed my eyebrows, albeit I didn't want to. So then, we went out to shop for a dress since they insisted that I should look lovely, and the outfit they bought was quite revealing. Shopping and dressing up had a purpose for our plans, and I could do nothing but acquiesce to the two of them since I wanted to know as well if Gavin loved me. Dani and Cara made a checklist to help me ascertain Gavin's feelings toward me. And today is the day that I'm starting the plan. Once I'm done cooking, I prepare the dishes and serve them on the table. And coincidentally, Gavin arrived, but it seemed that he didn't notice me as he headed straight to the bedroom. I reckon that he was worn out with his work. There might be some problems in t
The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge CHAPTER 38: Caught Off Guard
ShantelleThe next day, when I woke up, he was no longer beside me. I glanced at the clock, and it was already eight in the morning!‘Oh my God! I still have to go to Gavin's office!’ My sleepiness was gone as soon as I realized this fact, and I hastily picked up the phone on the bedside table and immediately dialed Dani's number. The line went through, and I told her I would be late because I had a meeting at Gavin's company at nine in the morning. ‘Why didn't Gavin wake me up?’ He knew that I would have a meeting with him at nine, but he didn't even wake me up. And he went to his company alone.I messed my hair with frustration as I stared blankly at the ceiling. Maybe I was exhausted because I woke up late. My body felt heavy, and laziness was creeping on my insides. I didn't want to move and sleep again, but I had no choice and still rose from the bed. After sighing, I went to the kitchen and saw the food on the table. I smiled upon seeing this and sat on the chair. He cook
The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge CHAPTER 39: Passed Out
ShantelleGavin and I went to the supermarket because I decided to buy some mangoes and tomatoes. I also bought other ingredients I would need for the food that I wanted to eat. I think it wouldn't be complete without a sauce, so I purchased anchovies. "Are you planning to cook? You're just wasting time for this," Gavin said as he pushed the cart while I put the ingredients inside it. I was taken aback by what he said, so I looked at him. "Who said I would be the one who's going to cook? For your information, you'll be the one who's cooking." I corrected what he said. His forehead furrowed because of that."As far as I can remember, you never said anything like that," Gavin answered while his eyebrows almost met. I think he was annoyed because his expression and the tone of his voice were about to rise.I was upset about what he said, so I pretended I didn't hear him. I just continued putting the ingredients in the cart while he was still pushing it. "Hey! Did you hear what I've sa
The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge CHAPTER 40: Am I Tricked?
ShantelleAs I opened my eyes, I saw Gavin sitting beside my bed. He was looking down at me worriedly while caressing my hair. I noticed that we were in an unfamiliar room. I think we're inside a hospital room."What happened?" I asked Gavin. I was about to get up, but I felt dizzy again. Gavin sighed, then he assisted me with leaning against the bed's headboard."You lost consciousness earlier. The doctor also said that you're anemic," he answered with a serious face. I was taken aback by what I've heard. "Huh? Me? I am anemic? Seriously? Why do I not know about that?" I asked him while I was frowning.‘Since when have I been anemic? Am I? Or maybe it's the cancer cells? There's no way!’The doctor already said that I was free from it, and it's been four years already since it was gone and cured. Damn. I am scared. I don't know how to react.Gavin just laughed happily at my confused expression. "Looks like you believed it.”“When the doctor also told me you were anemic, I didn't

ShantelleI really missed his touch and kisses. Everything about him made me crazy. His fingers inside me made my eyes widen. I felt the pressure slowly building in my abdomen. I knew this feeling... I bit my lip hard, but I couldn't help but call him out. 'I think I'm going to come already.'"Shit! Oh, Gavin! Fuck! Could you not make me scream? Vance might... wake up..." I muttered and gnashed my teeth when I felt something come out of my nether region. I panted heavily, and Gavin just chuckled at me. When he slightly raised his head, the teasing smile on his lips faded, and his expression became sour. "Why?" I looked at him, and he pursed his lips in annoyance. "Tsk. I don't have my condom right now," he said."I thought the earth had fallen. Don't worry, I'm safe today," I laughed mirthfully at his expression. "Are you sure? But having a protruding stomach on our wedding day is not ideal," he frowned. Yes, we weren't married yet, but our wedding was scheduled for four month
The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge CHAPTER 65: Still, Things Are Not Yet Over
ShantelleFor several nights, we were constantly awakened by Vance's cries. He often woke up at night, so we had no choice but to watch over him. He was like a night owl and also woke up early. He was always asleep at noon, so when it darkened, he was still wide awake. Raising a child was challenging but also fulfilling at the same time. "He's still a baby, so obviously, I need to focus on him. You're a grown-up man, so why do you need to compete with a child?" I said while laughing.Gavin snorted, which made me giggle with delight. "Okay, I'll help you feed him," I stopped teasing him, and he smiled. "Sure. Then feed me later too, hmm," Gavin joked.My heart trembled. His suggestive expression seemed like he was referring to something... dirty... Oh, God! Why am I thinking this way? But... It's almost two months since something happened to us, and since then, Gavin has been abstinent. I snapped out of my thoughts when I heard Vance's cry. I looked at him and cooed. "Baby Vance~
The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge CHAPTER 64: No, Not My Child
ShantelleA blinding light stung my eyes as my eyelids fluttered open. However, nothing registered to my mind yet. All I could feel were various movements rushing all around me. "We need to remove the fetus inside her body," said a voice. I blinked and tried to make out what they were saying because I couldn't hear it clearly, as though they were bees buzzing around. My stomach hurt as if someone was slicing it. Tears brimmed through my eyes, which made everything blurry around me. 'Are they doing surgeries on me? Did I lose my baby?'A lump formed in my throat as I tried to understand what the hell was happening around me. I couldn't think straight even though I tried. My heart feels heavy, as if a huge boulder weighed on it. I sniffled. I wanted to ease the heaviness that I was feeling, but I couldn't move. Gavin's figure flashed inside my mind, and it made me weep more. I knew that he would be enraged once he found out that I had a miscarriage. ‘Should I blame him? Or me? Or
The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge CHAPTER 63: She's Bleeding…
Shantelle"Oh, God! Shantelle!" In the midst of my trance, I heard a familiar voice calling me. It belongs to Dani and Cara. They hastily rushed to my side when I glanced at them, and I could see the horror in their expressions. I was relieved to finally see them. When they arrived, they immediately but carefully helped me to stand on my feet. I whimpered in pain with every movement, making me tear up when an intense pain shot through my abdomen. All I could feel was pain. "The guard told us you were fighting with someone, so we went down in a hurry. What happened?" Dani asked, then turned her gaze to Peighton and pointed her finger, "Is she the one?""Damn! Shantelle! You're bleeding! What to do?" Cara cried in alarm as she tried to dust off the dirt on my skirt. When I looked down, to my horror, I saw blood flowing on my legs. As soon as I saw this, I almost passed out on the spot. I could only stare at it blankly. When I lifted my head and looked at my friends' expressions -
The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge CHAPTER 62: A Psychotic Woman
ShantelleI swallowed the lump forming in my throat when Peighton finally stood before me. My hand was clenched in a deathly grip as I couldn't help but draw a big breath."It's nice to see you again, Shantelle," Peighton said sardonically and sneered. "Well, I don't feel the same way. Save your breath for the pleasantries, and just tell me why you're here," I spoke candidly. I needed to pretend that I was calm and collected. However, no matter how nervous I was, if she intended to fight, then I won't back down. I have no intention of running away and losing.The smile plastered on her lips faded as her expression contorted for a fleeting moment before her condescending grin returned. "Why treat me so coldly? Aren't you even grateful for what I did for you? Huh?!" she said sarcastically. Seeing that I wasn't reacting to her words, her smile vanished as she darted me a look full of hatred. "Remember? I gave you money that saved your puny life! I felt pity for you. That is why I pa
The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge CHAPTER 61: Her Reasons
Shantelle Tears welled up in my eyes again because of his heartfelt words. I didn't know if I deserved all this. I knew that I was neither good nor bad. Nevertheless, I felt that I was given too much. "How about your parents? They're probably angry?" I asked him worriedly. He laughed."They are. After hearing what you'd done, they were furious, and no matter how much I explained, they wouldn't listen. I told them that the past doesn't matter to me anymore because I love you, but they didn't listen.”“I told them to accept our relationship, but as though they were deaf, they wouldn't lend me an ear. But you don't have to worry about that. Maybe after you gave birth and they saw our little angel, they would change their minds.”“They are not getting any younger, and they will surely like our child, especially if he is as handsome as me, don’t you think so?" he said with a laugh.It seems he was not that affected by this matter. "Psh. You're really crazy. Still, I want to apologize to
The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge CHAPTER 60: He Knew, All Along
Shantelle"Thanks, Auntie," I whispered almost inaudibly and teared up again. My tears were akin to a waterfall that had an endless stream. Even now, I am still crying. We stayed in that position for a few more minutes, and Auntie just continued to caress my back. Because of Auntie's words, my mind cleared up, and I gained a little courage. Tomorrow, maybe I'll go back to Gavin's unit and talk it out with him. But for now, I want to sleep. My body felt heavy, and my feet were also hurting. I'll just deal with everything tomorrow.As we snuggled in each other's embrace, we suddenly heard the doorbell ring. I frowned with nervousness. Even though I didn't want to hope, I felt like it was Gavin who was outside. "I'll see who's outside," Auntie Trina said, and I nodded slightly and withdrew from her embrace. She stood up and left. I grew fidgety as I sat on my bed. My heart started to race with anxiety. I reckoned that it was indeed Gavin who was outside. And if he does come, then
The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge CHAPTER 59: Runaway Again
ShantelleI didn't want to stay in Gavin's unit for the time being. So I told Baron to drop me off at my house."Thank you," Baron nodded, and his lips parted, seemingly wanting to say something, but in the end, he didn't. Even though he didn't ask, I knew that he was worried. He just sighed and then drove away, and I stood silently in front of the door. I want to unwind... To relieve some discomfort, I was feeling. I wouldn't hide from Gavin, and I didn't have the intention of running away. But for now, I need some space. If Gavin still wants to be with me, despite the truth, then I'll come back. However, if he can't accept me... I can't help it. I can't force him to be with me. After all, I ruined his marriage for the sake of money, and he had the right to be mad at me. And... and I had no face to demand him to accept me. Even though he knew that I was the wedding intruder, he didn't ask the reason why I did that. And until now, I haven't been able to explain myself to him. He
The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge CHAPTER 58: What To Do?
ShantelleI watched Gavin talk to a businessman with a smile on his face. Because of this client, we still couldn't go see his parents. He still had his hand on my waist. Since then, he hasn't let go."I didn't know you were married already," his client told him. He gave me a quick look and a smile. "Well, I can't blame you. She's pretty," he added.My face got red, and I gave the man in front of us a small smile. I'm sure he is already in his thirties. I think he's also married."Right. But Shantelle's not just beautiful. She's just right for me," Gavin said this with a smile. "Anyway, I hope to see you again. Next time, let's talk about business. Let's enjoy the night for now," he said to him in a nice way. The businessman smiled and nodded, and we started to leave.Gavin pulled me away slowly as he talked. He asked with worry, "Are you tired?"We had been at the party for almost an hour and just finished talking to Gavin's clients, friends, and cousins.I replied by shaking my hea
