The Ex-Wife's Revenge 69: Spilled Coffee
AERAH’S POVIt was so unusual that my brother did not go to work today. I had been trying to look for a chance to talk to him and apologize for what I did, and now that I finally got the courage to do so, his secretary would tell me that he would not work today. He even canceled all his meetings that were supposed to happen later.What the hell is wrong with him? Is he avoiding me? Did he really take my slap personally? I only did that because I was pissed off! I felt like he was disrespecting me!“Do you know when will he come back? Can you ask him why isn’t he going to work today? I need to tell him something urgent.”I had to apologize right now or I would not get a good sleep tonight again. I could not afford to be sleepless and had puffy eye bags just because of guilt. Damn it!“Mr. Moore said that he has something important to do today, too, Ms. Moore. He advised me to not call him for things that relate to work—”“But I wouldn’t talk to him just for work! Duh? We are the owner
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 70: Best friend Quarrel
AERAH’S POV“Dang it,” I cussed at myself as I retouched the powder I had on my face. I finally got to change and look pretty again, but there was something that was still bothering me now. “Goodness, Mom,” I groaned as I clicked the red button to turn off the call for the nth time now. She had been calling me since I received that nonsense text. Gosh, isn’t she used to me yet? I thought she would not be shocked anymore if she heard another gossip about me from her friends again. She seemed to forget that men would not stop salivating over her only daughter.Am I at fault for that?I knew I fooled around again days ago, but I made sure that there would not be any clips or pictures that those bastards would take of us while doing the deed. Well, that happened successfully, but it seemed like I would not be able to control their nosy mouths and they would start telling people about how good I was in bed.Stupid bastards.“Finally done,” I sang like I was singing in a theater. I did not
The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 1: Jane's Sorrowful End
JANE'S POV“Where’s Gray?” I asked the maid as I held my father’s urn. I just went back from the funeral home where my father’s remain was cremated. As an only daughter, no one was with me as I processed everything regarding his death. Even my husband, who was always so busy with his family’s business, didn’t come with me.“He is upstairs, Ma’am. Do you want me to call him for you? He just got back from his office,” the maid offered, but I shook my head to refuse. With tears trickling down my face, I went upstairs to see him, hoping that maybe tonight, now that my father was dead, he would be here to comfort me.“Ooh, Gray! I like that! Please, I wanna cum so bad!”“I’ll make you cum, Hazel…”Standing at the doorway, my hands shook as I tried to convince myself that this was not our room. I refused to believe that Gray would bring another woman here. Not in our household. But no matter how I tried to fool myself that this was not happening, their moans were becoming louder as time pa
The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 2: She is Awake!
JANE'S POV“When is she gonna be okay, Doc? It had been months…”“Fortunately, Mrs. Jane Moore’s vitals are okay now. In the meantime, she needs to stay in bed. The intense impact of the collision damaged her legs.”“Can she still walk?”“She must undergo therapy to be able to walk again. Don’t worry, Madame. The chances of her full recovery are high. We just need to be a little patient.” Monitor beeps and muffled voices were the first sound to register in my ear. Sluggishly, my heavy eyelids started opening. Crystal white coffered ceiling was my first initial sight. I had a glimpse of people in my peripheral vision, and they seemed to be conversing about me. The immobility of my neck made it hard for me to know who they were. “A-Aah…” I tried to make a sound but even my throat started hurting. The word came out so raspy as if I hadn’t tasted water for weeks. What happened to me? “Oh my goodness, Doc! She’s awake!” the woman near me exclaimed. There were sudden movements around me
The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 3: She is Back
JANE'S POV— 2 years later —“We successfully bought Mrs. Baker’s share. Right now, we are one of Moore Estate’s major shareholders…” Miranda, my secretary, announced. Hearing that, a sly smile erupted from my lips, satisfied that everything was going according to plan.Well, well. What a good news to start this month. I wasn’t wrong when I asked my siblings to go back to Texas weeks before the Moore Estate’s anniversary. As one of the major shareholders, we would be invited, to be sure. “I can’t believe that Mrs. Baker would sell her husband’s share right after he passed. Poor woman. She probably doesn’t know how the business world works…” Kaihly, Kelly’s twin, remarked, her head resting on my shoulder. “It’s just perfect, alright? I mean, so sad that he died but duh? We got the shares! Jane finally has access to that company!” Kelly responded, clapping her hands for me. I did not comment. I had been waiting for this. I made sure that I would get access to that family's assets once
The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 4: You Can't Fool Us!
GRAY’S POV“A pleasant evening, everyone. It is an honor to stand in front of you today. To be honest, I didn’t expect this company to be this grand. I am a little pressured…”The guests who were unfamiliar with Jane laughed and cheered for her, while the others who knew my deceased wife, remained clueless about what was happening. My muscles were tensed, and my eyes could not leave the woman’s presence.“What kind of nonsense is this?! Why is that woman on the stage? Is this a joke? Mom! Do something about this!”Aerah was the first to react. Her sudden burst out took the attention of the guests that were previously drawn by Jane. Aerah’s reaction broke the ice that stiffened me in my seat. Damn, Aerah. This was not the time to be a fucking brat!“Aerah, sit down!” I ordered, my voice almost a whisper. She looked at me incredulously, her mouth slightly parted. She stood up, scoffing, making her the center of attention. Even Jane, who looked at her like she was a scandalous stranger
The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 5: Hazel Brown
SERENA’S POV“Oh, your son’s here, Madame Geraldine. Since you’re acting like nothing’s happening here, do you want me to initiate and tell him about the accusations you’re throwing at me?” I offered, blatantly displaying a fake smile. The old woman’s eyes squinted, her lips turning flat. I turned my gaze on Gray, and just like how he looked at me the moment I showed myself on stage, his eyes were filled with confusion and mystery.“You’re so quiet… I don’t like it.”His silence reminded me of the days when I badly wanted to spend time with him, but I would always get nothing. Hearing that, Gray cleared his throat, swallowing.“I deeply apologize for all the troubles happening right now, Ms. Ambers—”“Don’t be. I am already disappointed. Given how wonderful this party looked, I never expected such treatment like this. If you want to redeem yourself, I suggest to stop trying tonight. Everything’s still fresh—”“Oh, shut up! Don’t even try to act so high and mighty, Jane Williams. We al
The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 6: Board Meeting at Moore Estates
SERENA’S POV“Where’s Kelly now? Did she send us an update?” I tried to remain calm as I sat on the couch. I was still wearing the dress that I wore at the party, and even though it had already been an hour since I came home, I felt like I did not have the time to change. I was too preoccupied with what Kelly said.What does she mean that we have a problem? Did Aerah know about her already? It had only been a night, dammit!“Calm down, Jane. You know Kelly’s a good liar, right? She had been doing this for years. And besides, that girl Aerah trusted her so much that she won’t bother suspecting her…” Kaihly, Kelly’s twin stated, watching me silently panicked. She sat comfortably in front of me, her arm crossing against her chest. She knew what was happening. She even saw how Aerah made a scene at that party. I did not have an idea that my sister hacked the surveillance camera in that hotel to watch me get embarrassed by that filthy family.“She said that we have a problem, Kaihly. Wha

The Ex-Wife's Revenge 68: Visiting the House
GRAY’S POVMy mother, just like usual, could not help but rant to me again because of Serena Ambers and my sister’s attitude. To be honest, I would be more confused if she would not do that. That was what she did all the time—to rant and complain about almost the same thing. Aerah got her attitude from her.Good thing my mother was also a worrier because when she heard a loud honk from the other cars, she almost went under cardiac arrest and immediately scolded me for being too careless and comfortable on the road. She was not a fan of using phones while driving—or perhaps doing something while inside the car. She ended the call right away, thanks to the cars that honked so loudly. Our house was hours away from the company, and I had been driving for a long time now. I had no plans on staying at work for the whole day, anyway. I had my meetings canceled so I could take my time staying at home. The house that I bought for Jane was inside the village that my mother’s family owned, so
The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 67: Confession Heart?
SERENA’S POV“Who the hell is that man Mom was talking about?” I asked myself as I ate the salad Kelly made for us. Just like usual, all of us were in the lounge, spending our time here however we wanted. The sun was up now, but none of us seemed to have planned to leave the house. Well, I did have a plan, but I would not be so stubborn again like how I did last time. My doctor freaking scolded me when he learned how I didn’t take his advice seriously. Also, no matter how much I wanted to go out and do what I had to do, I would not take any risks again unless I really needed to do so. Geraldine almost learned what was I hiding because of my stupidity and stubbornness. I was too careless and wasn’t thinking smart enough.“Chill, girl. You don’t have to worry about it too much. Mom’s men are all reliable when it comes to technology and physical fights. You won’t be dead if someone tries to kill you again,” Kaihly answered the question that was supposed to be heard only by me. Tch. S
The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 66: Picture Frame
GRAY’S POV“Tsk. Forget about that Serena Ambers, man. It’s so fucking obvious that you’re interested in that woman, but you’ll never be at peace with her because of your family. Why don’t you try liking other women? Your former secretary—”“Shut the fuck up, Kole. I told you I am not interested in dating for now. I won’t fucking deny nor confirm anything for now, too, because everything is just so fucking confusing.”I messed up with my hair as I looked down the floor. I was not a teenager to be fucking in denial with my feelings, but I wouldn’t name whatever I felt because damn, they were not the same person, but I was afraid if ever I was falling deeply in love with Serena just because she reminded me of Jane. I had met women like Serena Ambers before. Brave and bold, and they never get too carried away with their feelings just like her, but I was never interested. Maybe as business partners, yes, as I was assured of their professionalism, but other than that, they did not interes
The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 65: Favorite
GRAY’S POV “Damn, that was fucking straight to the point,” Kole stated, gasping. He lightly bumped his shoulder against mine as if telling me how bad it was, that it was rude and I should not have said that. Looking at Chelsea’s embarrassed expression, I thought he was right. I should have stayed quiet.“A-Ah, it’s okay Lawrence. You don’t have to force me to Gray. This party is for Marco. It should not be for me and Gray. And duh? We just met and he barely knew me. Stop shipping me to him, guys. It’s quite embarrassing for the both of us,” Chelsea told us, stuttering and not looking where I was. She had this huge smile on her face just a while ago when Marco’s friends were teasing her to me, but now that I told them how uninterested I was, she seemed to deny it and started acting conscious. Did that embarrassment do that to her? I apologized for being blunt, but that was what I truly felt. I wasn’t hoping for an issue. I would rather look rude from their perspective than let them
The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 64: Marco’s Birthday
GRAY’S POV “Fucking hell,” I cursed as I parked the car outside Marco’s house. My right cheek still felt numb even if my sister had slapped the hell out of my face hours ago. The rearview mirror showed me the remembrance of it—it was red and had the tiny mark of her ring that was on her fingers when it happened. I hoped this birthday celebration was an intimate one. I could not afford to be seen by guests looking like this. Fuck, why does it have to be Marco’s birthday today? Knowing that man, he was a social butterfly who knew almost all the people in and outside Texas. I got out of the car and went inside my friend’s million-dollar house, bringing nothing but the face my sister hit. I had no time to bring him gifts when many things had happened today when it wasn’t even 10 pm yet. I was not even in the pool area yet I could already hear the sound of the music. What do I expect? Marco was a party animal. I got where they were wearing the suit that I often wore while I worked, giv
The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 63: A He?
SERENA’S POV The lounge fell silent as Miranda walked toward me. I glanced at Kelly, hoping to see the expression on her face that said, “I wanna answer it.” But no. My younger sister only gave me a signal by nodding her head, seemingly telling me that I should be the one to answer it. Usually, Kelly would be the one to communicate with our mother. I always led the plan and sometimes would do what they suggested, but when it came to talking to the one who birthed us, Kelly was always our representative. She had the most amazing communication skills among us and she could convince the one and only Valeria Ambers not to go here. I took a deep breath as I received the phone from my secretary. Mom’s name flashed on the screen, making me nervous even more. I answered the call as silence enveloped inside the lounge room, turning on the speaker button so that my sisters could hear her, too.“Mommy…” I greeted, befuddled on what tone should I use. She just heard that I passed out in the de
The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 62: She Told Her!
SERENA’S POV “Kelly, stop with the arguing, please. There’s something that we need to do first before anything…” Kaihly interrupted us, her tone worried. We all looked at her simultaneously, forgetting what we were worried about in a split second. It was so rare to see Kaihly without her tablet or laptop. She would not be able to live without those gadgets. But right now, she had nothing on her hand. She was just listening to us, seemingly assessing the situation. “What is it? Are there other things that we need to be worried about besides that our mother is coming here anytime soon? Damn, Kaihly, what is it?”Kaihly took a deep breath and stood up. She then faced us all, the look of terror was hiding behind her eyes, yet it still could be seen from our point of view. With the way she was acting right now, I felt like something bad was about to happen. Kaihly was always calm and composed. She was the only person who could be so chill in the middle of chaos. “Miranda said that they
