The Ex-Wife's Revenge 87: I Won’t Stoop to That Level
SERENA’S POVI was right. The moment I entered my office, I found Gray sitting on the visitor’s chair in front of my table. I had no idea how long he had been here, but I was sure that he had been waiting for me for quite some time now.He did not follow me when I left him with the model. The model did, though, so I guessed they were not really together while I was eating.Looking at the man in my office, I recalled what Lucia told me. My heart started to feel heavier as I went toward him without stating a word.Should I show him the fake jealousy I was feeling? I was not in the mood the last time I talked to him in the hallway. “What’s the purpose of your visit, Mr. Moore? I am sure that you won’t have any problems with the papers that I passed. What is it this time?”I sat on my swivel chair, passing by him without even stopping to flirt and offer seduction—which was my original plan but changed because of what happened earlier.“I am gonna explain myself. I know you’re thinking th

GRAY’S POV I treasured my relationship with my mother even though she was sometimes suffocating, but this was what I hated the most. Whenever she did things behind my back. I had told her so many times that she could not fire anyone in my house without telling me. I had not even talked to Lucia for days now, and this was what Serena would tell me.I entered my mother’s mansion in haste. My jaw tightened as I tried to loosen my necktie. I bought this house as a gift to her for her birthday last year. They recently moved here and left Jane and I’s house because of the location.“Good evening, M—” “Where’s my mother?” I interrupted the maid, not wasting any time. I had been wanting to go here since Serena told me what my mother did to Lucia, but I had to be in a meeting so I did not get to drive here earlier. The maid I hadn’t met since they moved here stood straight when she met my sharp gaze. “T-They are in the common room, Mr. Moore. Do you want me to tell them of your arrival? Mrs
Last Updated : 2024-12-17The Ex-Wife's Revenge 89: They Were Right
GRAY’S POV Being in the same house with them made me suffocate all the time, so I didn’t stay long and left them immediately. It was somehow strange for me because my mother was silent the whole time I was there and only letting Aerah speak up for her. If what they said was true, which I still doubted, then I thought Lucia and I had to talk and settle things. I needed to know what truly happened. I called the HR manager to ask if Lucia was really applying, and the woman confirmed that it was real. Lucia’s application confused me so much, too. If she really did something to my mom that she knew would result in her being fired, then she should not have done it in the first place. She would be scared to step foot in the property we owned because my mother could file a case against her at any time. I would not let that happen, though. Sending Lucia to jail would not be the solution. I had to wait for the next morning to come before I could talk to the woman. She was applying for a job

SERENA’S POV“Where is her daughter, then? How the hell could that woman leave her mother with her two children? Maybe that’s why Lucia doesn’t want to leave her job at the Moores. She’s feeding two children with her salary,” Kelly stated as she looked at the printed file that Caden gave us. Caden’s tandem with Kaihly seemed to be working. I asked about Lucia’s background last night, including her family and other connections, and they both worked for it in one night. Now, I already had the results in my hand. They woke me up with a folder with her life story. “Sarah Davis left and went with her new boyfriend, leaving the two children to Lucia Davis. They are currently living in Washington. Sarah works as a waitress in a restaurant that her boyfriend owns,” Caden added casually. Just like what I said, I asked Caden and Kaihly to know about Lucia’s family and her connections. That explained why Lucia still applied for jobs even though she should have been retiring already.She reall

SERENA’S POVI could see the fire in Gray’s eyes as he felt my touch on his thigh. I smiled in my mind, realizing how the slightest thing that I did affected him so much.His head got closer to mine, and right there I knew I should stop what I was doing. I did not want him to kiss me. I did not think I would go that far right now.Our eye contact remained intense, but it broke when I turned my head away, releasing a heavy sigh as if I were the most problematic person in this room.“What’s wrong?” the bastard asked, searching for my eyes. I shook my head and looked at him with worry.“You know what? I really could not help but worry about Lucia when I saw her yesterday. She told me she needed a job. Are you gonna accept her? I don’t know why was she fired but I really have a soft heart with old people. I don’t want her to work but it seems like she really needed the job. Are you gonna hire her here?” I stated, placing my hand on his.My worry about the old woman was true, but I asked h
Last Updated : 2024-12-19The Ex-Wife's Revenge 92: Culprit
SERENA’S POVMiranda was more than fine knowing that there would be another person working the office aside from the both of us. I believed Lucia wasn’t so sensitive to people, so I guessed she would just be fine spending most of her hours with us. I reminded Miranda a hundred times to not mention anything about my past and what was our plan, as Lucia did not know who I truly was. I hoped she would be alright seeing me every day. As much as I could, I did not want her to be emotional. It might trigger me. “Ms. Ambers, Madame Valeria Ambers wants to talk to you. She asked me to remind you to call her once you come back here. I think she has something to discuss with you, Ma’am,” Miranda announced, breaking the silence in the office.I ceased from signing the papers that Gray sent here. Silently, I dialed my mom’s phone number on my phone, not expecting that she would answer it on the first ring. She did. Isn’t she busy right now? “Mom, what’s up?”“Remember what we have talked abou
Last Updated : 2024-12-20The Ex-Wife's Revenge 93: Jane’s Style
SERENA’S POVThree days had passed and this was the first day that Lucia would start working in the Moore Estates. During those days, Gray and I were both so preoccupied with paperwork that we barely even flirted with each other.The situation seemed to be favoring me because I would rather sign all those papers than sit in his office, waiting for him to notice my exposed cleavage.“Oh my goodness, you look like Jane!”A sly smile formed on my lips as I went down the stairs, my dress almost reaching the ground whenever I took a step toward them.The construction of my proposed project started today, and Gray and I had to be there to check on what was going on. I had gone there two times, but Miranda and I would only pass by all the time. I could not afford to run late at work while I was keeping my professional image.It was undeniably sunny on the site because of the recently demolished land. I made sure that there would be more than enough trees in the surroundings, though. We had t
Last Updated : 2024-12-20The Ex-Wife's Revenge 94: Should I Stop?
GRAY’S POV I would bury myself to the ground. What the fuck is wrong with me? Serena’s eyebrows squished together. She was just as confused as me, but the difference was I knew where those words came from. I knew why did I say that, but I had no idea why I had to fucking say it out loud. My chin tilted up as I swallowed hard. I ran out of excuses to tell her, but I had to think through it. I should not have said that if it wasn’t meant for her completely. I was damn well aware that it wasn’t just Serena who I missed. I fucking missed my wife, too. “What do you mean? We’re always seeing each other in the company. What’s wrong?” she asked, giggling at me. I cleared my throat, straightening my back. I looked away from her and pretended to look at my employees instead.“It’s nothing. I just remembered something. Forget it.”“Forget what you said? That you missed me? Oh, Gray. No one can hear us talking here. Look, they are all busy. You don’t have to hide how much you want me, my darl

The Ex-Wife's Revenge 129: Team Building?
GRAY’S POVShe just left me standing under the scorching sun. Right after I said that I never wanted her gone, she only looked at me before turning to go to the car waiting for them.She didn’t even say or ask anything. She left me as if she didn’t care about what I just said.I had no reason to stay at the site anymore, so I went to where my car was and drove away. I didn’t follow them, but I had no plans of staying where my mother and sister were. Kole and Marco texted me their location just a few minutes ago, so I might as well go to their place. It was a sunny afternoon, so I knew that there wouldn’t be a party, girls, party lights, and music while I stayed with them. It was just perfect. Perfect to tell them about another encounter with my wife.I had told them about her identity already, and just like me, they were fucking shook as well. They didn’t even want to believe me at first, but I was Gray Moore, a man who didn’t like to joke around using my wife’s name so they did beli
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 128: Mean to Me?
SERENA’S POVI spent my days learning how to manage my time well and almost completely forgetting that my ex-husband learned that I was his ex-wife. I always woke up with a feeling my identity was revealed in public, but days had passed and I still lived the same life as Serena Ambers. Paperworks, office, meetings, and the investigation. I hadn’t even heard the name of Gray’s family for a while now. They were not bothering me at all.Even Gray. Surprisingly, he was not the person that I expected him to be after learning my identity. I thought he would tail me from time to time, asking questions that I would never give him the answer. He was always far away or he had a distance from me whenever we would see each other, but no matter what distance, he would always be there. I couldn’t even remember a single time that I was going out of my office and I didn’t see him. That was just too impossible now. He would be wherever I went to.I couldn’t tell him to fuck off and mind his own busin
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 127: Investigate Them
GRAY’S POVI had completely forgotten that there was an ongoing project proposed by my wife because of what was happening. I stared at how Jane’s emotions changed quickly when one of the employees stated the information about Hazel Brown. She didn’t seem to care at first, but now that she heard it, one of her brows rose.“Why are you saying that to me? You must tell that to Mr. Moore because he is the one who’s gonna be with the girl. I am out of their business…” she answered, shaking her head lightly.I did not react, but her indifference was like a knife in my chest. Now that I knew the truth, the difference she had from before was really obvious. She rarely smiled and always rolled her eyes at people. The old Jane would never do that. She would cry for being so guilty if she ever became mean.It didn’t matter. I liked both versions of her. “Mr. Moore, Ms. Ambers is gone. Do you still need something?” I didn’t know how long I stared at where Jane stood even after she left, as I o
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 126: Hazel and Gray?
SERENA’S POVIt wasn’t new that I would go to work with a bunch of bodyguards tailing me as if someone would attack me anytime, but the employees of the Moore Estates never got tired of gossiping about it whenever they would see me pass by.I was expecting news and articles coming out today that revealed who I truly was, but I woke up with nothing but a notification about one of my acquaintances back home celebrating her birthday today. The morning was quiet, and only the murmurs of the employees were the things that I could hear. It was almost inaudible, too, making me feel pure confusion. What the hell is happening? I thought Gray would reveal the things about me today. That was what we were expecting. Aerah and Geraldine Moore didn’t welcome me with their bullying, too. It seemed like a peaceful day for someone like me who got her life played by destiny yesterday.“Nice to see you again, beautiful woman…”I only halted spacing out when I came across one of the men who had been run
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 125: Officially Divorced
SERENA’S POVI ended up going outside and letting Kelly stay inside the house, asking her to notify security that Gray did something magical again that he was able to get in front of our house without notifying us.I took a deep breath as I followed one of our maids, unsure of what to tell him once he opened the topic of me, being his wife whom he thought died years ago.I had my face emotionless when I saw him get alarmed by my presence, immediately walking toward me as soon as he saw me get outside.“What are you doing here? Who allowed you to be here?” I asked, not giving him time to talk first. As much as I could, I did not want to talk about what happened earlier. I wasn’t even sure if I was ready to open that topic. I wasn’t sure if I could already say the right words now.“Jane…”I tried hard not to fucking react even though I could already feel that this night would be hell for me again. My temples were already tingling, and I was already anticipating a fresh set of fucking me
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 124: Let Them Know Who You Are
SERENA’S POV“What the hell? You did not even deny anything, Landon? Huh? What the hell is going on with you? You really slapped Gray with the truth that Serena is Jane? Are you fucking kidding me?” Kelly couldn’t bring herself to calm down right after Landon told him everything that happened in the Moore Estates. We were complete in the lounge area. Caden and Kaihly were sitting next to each other, both of them stopping what they were doing. My mother was just sitting two seats away from them, silent as she drank from her wine glass. I was silent, too, while Landon was trying to calm my sister down. He wasn’t doing well. One more stupid thing that he would say and Kelly would throw things at him. We were both at fault for being so careless, but Landon, not making a story to cover the truth just ended all of us. “Enough, Kelly. There’s no use in being mad right now. We are now caught and the secret has been revealed. There is no going back now—” “It is so easy to say that but what
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 123: Fooled Twice
GRAY’S POV Hearing Serena’s conversation with Landon made me fucking freeze on the ground. What the hell is this bastard talking about? What does he mean by my sister abusing Serena when Serena was still living with us? “What the hell is going on? Is it fucking true, Serena? Jane?” I asked, trying to fucking confirm what was running in my mind. Do I even need a confirmation? It came from their mouths. I was not dumb to not think that they were talking about Jane, my ex-wife. I walked toward them without breaking eye contact with my wife. The terror in her eyes just confirmed that everything that bastard said was true. “G-Gray?” Jane called me, her voice shaking. I stared at her intently. Is she really my wife? I fucking had no idea where to start. She had been staying with us for the past months now, pretending to be a different person. Pretending to be someone far from Jane. I had my answer about who she really was, but everything wasn’t clicking yet. The pieces that I was tr
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 122: Am I Caught?
SERENA’S POVI immediately pulled away from Gray’s kiss when the door barged open, revealing the one and only Aerah Celine Moore, who I thought was getting stopped by my secretary to go in.Miranda failed, though. She could only hold her arm to prevent her from attacking me.“Let go of me, you bitch! I need to talk to your shitty boss right now and show her who am I!”What I did here with Gray hadn’t even gone inside my head completely, yet I was about to face another chaos from a Moore again. I secretly fixed my messed up clothes to not raise another issue.I turned my body to see Aerah completely, my chin up as I faked my confidence. I was a fucking slut after letting that bastard kiss me. How can I fucking do that?“What is your problem with me this time, Aerah? Long time no see. I wonder what made you go here this early?” I started, crossing my arms against my chest. I signaled Miranda to let the woman do what she wanted, and I got a sigh as her response as she let Gray’s sister l
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 121: Traitor Body
SERENA’S POVMy head was aching so badly. I woke up in my bedroom, all the lights were dimmed except for the lamp beside my bed.Everything seemed to be adding up right now. Charles was telling me that Gray was cheating on me in my memory, but I did not believe him. Is that the reason why Gray was telling me to stay away from him? He was the one who ruined Gray and I’s marriage, according to my ex-husband.I caressed my head and rested my back on the headboard. I felt like I was close to knowing the truth. Lucia told everything she knew to Kaihly and Caden, except the part where she couldn’t tell me about my memories because I couldn’t handle anything. My doctor told us that we should let it go back naturally or I would shit myself again.I agreed. The pain when my memory would be back without force was almost absent whenever it happened.For sure, Miranda told them about Charles already. I wouldn’t be surprised if I went outside and they already had the information about the man.The
