The 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

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
Last Updated : 2024-12-21The Ex-Wife's Revenge 95: Interested in Me?
SERENA’S POVI was so confused. I could not name what I was feeling right now, honestly. But no matter what it was, it was against my better judgment to freaking feel this way.We were already on our way to my office, and I still could not comprehend these emotions.Should I be freaking glad that Gray said that he missed the old me or be confused because what the fuck? How could he miss someone he used to hate? How could he miss someone that he kicked out years ago?I should be pissed off. That was right. There was no right answer between those two. I should be mad and cussing the hell out of him because even after all these years, even if he wasn’t aware that I was Jane that he said he was missing right now, he was still stressing me out. So, what was gonna happen now? Is this the end of our useless relationship? Is this the end of my pretend flirting with him? This could not be happening at all. I had not even asked him about so many things.If he wanted to be away from me starting
Last Updated : 2024-12-21The Ex-Wife's Revenge 96: Slacking Off
SERENA’S POVI could feel Miranda’s intent stare as we listened to what was Lucia saying. We had been investigating what truly happened in the past, and we had never encountered someone who said that my husband used to be interested in me. Did that really happen? Because I could not remember a single thing regarding that. I had never felt Gray’s interest in me.“He’s interested? I heard from a few employees here that they are only under an arranged marriage. And if he’s interested, he would not flirt with the woman you were talking about…”Is Lucia even telling me the truth right now? How come Gray liked me when I was always a ghost to him? He rarely went home and never knew anything about me. He was always too busy with the company. He was always with his father.“Oh, I don’t know what happened to that man. They were indeed only under an arranged marriage for the sake of business, but I knew that Gray truly liked his wife. He never told me anything but his actions told me so. He migh

SERENA’S POV “Yeah, she did. I received an email from one of her friends. I declined because what am I gonna with them? Listen to them talking nonsense about other people?” My shoulders fell. She was invited to one of Geraldine’s private gatherings. I was sure a tea party would not be huge, so only a few people were invited there. One of them was my mother, and that was already a chance to have a connection with her. “You know I don’t have many friends because I don’t wanna waste my time talking about other people’s business, right? It’s not my cup of tea. I would rather spend time with my children and talk about something that would make sense to me,” my mother added, almost rolling her eyes at me. I bit my lip and refrained from talking about how much information we could get from that woman alone. That tea party would not only be about the tea that they would drink. I was sure it was a tea about someone’s life, too. Hopefully my life. It was okay if she talked shit about me as
Last Updated : 2024-12-23The Ex-Wife's Revenge 98: Am I Not in Love With Her?
GRAY’S POV I did have an idea of what should I do, but I did not think I would be able to trust myself.“I don’t think we should talk about this over the phone, Serena. I just called to apologize, but I would like to talk about us in person,” I responded, regretting that I called tonight and disturbed her. I wanted to apologize, but the original plan was to do it in person. I just called because I happened to miss her voice. “Tsk. Whatever. Let’s talk in person like what you want, Mr. Moore. I am gonna end this call now. Bye.” She ended the call without letting me bid her goodbye. I inhaled a deep breath, turning off my phone. My feelings had been confusing me since then, and now that I had to decide, it seemed like I could not bring myself to decide what should I do, too. I could fucking feel that I wanted Serena to be mine. I liked her as Serena Ambers, but I also could not help but remember how I used to act around my wife. It was fucking confusing me. Did I only like Serena be

GRAY’S POV“I was never in love with my wife, Lucia. Maybe I was interested in her before everything changed—”“You are just in denial. You are in love with Jane, Gray. You have always been in love with her. Even after she passed, you have been in denial. You kept telling yourself that you were not in love with her because your untamed anger was still there. You are mad at her for what she did, and you became angrier when she passed…”Lucia’s words started sinking into my mind slowly, highlighting everything that she was saying. I closed my eyes as I started recalling the times that Jane was still alive.I admitted that I was not a good husband. I was merely a stranger to her, as I was not always at home. My office actually became my house because of too much work that my father was giving me. Those were my preparations once the company would be given to me. Jane would talk to me whenever we had the chance to do so, but I would always answer her like how I answered most people that I

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
