The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 42: Hear What?
SERENA’S POVGenuinely worried? What is this man on? I blinked rapidly as I looked away from him, my gaze now focusing on the front. Landon’s voice was loud and clear as he talked about the plan and the proposals, but there seemed to be a problem in my ear that I could not understand anything that I was hearing. Or rather, the words any of the people said within the room would not register in my mind.What the hell? I tried hard to not look at Gray’s direction. He was just beside me, and I had to gather all my effort to not make me look at my side. Gray Moore being vocal with what he felt honestly surprised me. He did not seem like he was acting or faking his concern, but I didn’t want to assume that his worry was goddamn artificial. “You are one of the people who served this company a greater success since you came, Ms. Ambers. I am very grateful you became a part of the Moore Estates. I couldn’t just let you go on with your life without knowing if you’re okay or not,” I heard him

SERENA’S POVDamn. This was what I was talking about. How could Gray hear that when I could barely hear what Landon was saying? Damn it! I clenched my fist as I hid it under the table. I then looked turned to Gray—who was looking only at me with a raised brow. I displayed my pearl-white teeth, pretending that nothing was going on.“Oh, I wasn’t talking about you, Mr. Moore. To tell you frankly, you are not the only person that we deal with every day. We have personal lives, too. And, you are not the only person that we know in this room. We could talk about anyone who’s in here right now…” I said, trying not to be sarcastic but still ended up sounding that way. I thought I got it from Landon. “I thought I heard my name, Ms. Ambers. No need to get mad,” Gray answered, withdrawing his curiosity. Well, I guessed that worked. Landon and I almost got caught gossiping about the Moores on the spot and worse, by Gray Moore—the smartest and the only person that had a brain of them all.Gray

SERENA’S POV Damn, she knew who I was. Wouldn’t it be strange if I asked her if we had met before while she thought I was Jane Williams-Moore? This maid was probably one of the servants that the Moore family had while I was still living with them. She must have known a lot about me given that we were living in the same house then. “I am Serena Ambers, Ma’am. Nice to meet you…” I stated, my eyes focused on the old maid. I just noticed that she was holding most of Geraldine’s not-so-heavy stuff. There were things that were on the floor when we collided, but the old maid immediately reached for it before Geraldine came. “S-Serena Ambers?” she asked, stuttering and with a knotted forehead. Her eyes marveled at my body from head to toe, almost shedding a tear. She could not help but gasp as the seconds passed and the disbelief still wasn’t leaving her being. Who is this woman? Was she a part of my life before?“Yes, Lucia. Serena Ambers is a different person. She’s not Jane Moore that
Last Updated : 2024-10-12The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 45: Delusion
GRAY’S POV“What do you mean you saw her here?” I asked, even though I already had an idea that she was talking about Serena. As far as I knew, Lucia had been very close to my wife right after she got hired as one of our maids. “Tch, don’t mind this woman’s delusion, son. She saw Serena Ambers in the hallway and thought that it was Jane. We had the same reactions as her when we first saw that wench at the anniversary celebration. I could not really blame her for assuming that Serena is your ex-wife.” “I don’t think she is a different person, Ma’am. I know who Jane is. She talks and walks like her. She may have a different fashion style, makeup, or hair right now, but I believe it’s her. I have been telling you that Jane is still alive—”“Enough with your delusions, Lucia! That woman is ill-mannered and looks at herself as if she’s someone higher than me. She was the reason why Hazel got fired! Do you really think your Jane acts like that? To hell with that woman!” my mother cut the
Last Updated : 2024-10-13The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 46: Memory or Dream?
GRAY’S POV Damn. Was I really obvious during the meeting? Even my mom noticed how much I became a fucking attention seeker almost an hour ago. She was watching us closely, she said. I could not come up with what to answer her. She slapped me with the truth, and I did not think I was able to defend myself further after that. “Do you like that woman, Gray? Do you like the woman named Serena Ambers who looks exactly like Jane?” Lucia asked me a few moments later, breaking the silence that I created. My mother and I looked at Lucia simultaneously, having different reactions. I raised a brow, while my mom gave her a look in disbelief. Lucia was only focusing on me, though. She did not even glance at my mother. “What made you ask that, Lucia? You don’t even know Serena…” I answered indirectly. I was not a fool to notice how I was acting these past few days. I knew the difference between being a professional businessman and a man who had an interest in a woman. I wasn’t sure which one I w
Last Updated : 2024-10-14The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 47: Lucia
SERENA’S POVLandon handed me water as I massaged my temple. Well, Lucia was in my dreams, but I was not sure if that dream was actually a memory. How could I be sure if all I knew was I slept in the car?“What did you remember about that woman, Serena? Do you think she’s someone important from your past?” Kaihly asked me, sitting at the edge of the bed.“I actually remember that maid from the Moore’s mansion before. As far as I can remember, Lucia was the only person that had a close bond with Jane. Well, I am not sure, but I have seen Lucia and Jane once talking in the garden, almost hugging each other…” Kelly mentioned all of a sudden. She had been quiet for a while now as if she was trying to remember something. This was the first time that she spoke ever since she went inside my room.Hugging each other? She must be something important from my past. Maybe that was why she also looked familiar to me. She was kind in my dreams, too.Feeling dizzy, I closed my eyes and tried to rec
Last Updated : 2024-10-15The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 48: Fault
SERENA’S POV The conversation ended when my doctor arrived at our house. Actually, Dr. Howard wasn’t originally my doctor through my whole journey of struggling with amnesia. My doctor lived in California, and the one who was with us right now was the only one of her friends that happened to live in Texas. He was the most trusted one that we could reach for right now. We were lucky that he was available when we called. My siblings and Landon left my room for my check-up and a brief talk with Dr. Howard. He asked me many things about what happened, but as someone who could not even remember if it happened to me… I could only answer a few and most of my answers were unsure, too. “I think what you just had was your memory. You were unconscious when it happened, so you think all of it was just a dream. It’s just strange how can you not be aware of what happened to you when Ms. Rowans told me that you were shouting out of pain when you were in the car,” Dr. Howard explained as he w
Last Updated : 2024-10-17The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 49: Post
GRAY’S POV“I am sorry, dear, but you know how much I bonded with your wife ever since I became one of your maids. Saying these words to you might make me lose my job, but my disappointment is thicker than my love for your family…” I watched how tears fell from Lucia’s eyes one by one. Seeing Serena for the first time might have triggered something in her. She was still probably grieving, and having to be face-to-face with someone who looked exactly like Jane surely woke up something inside her. Ever since Jane died and Lucia became aware of what was the reason behind it, her treatment toward me had gone cold. You would not see Lucia passing by me without asking how my day was or if something bad happened to my day. But ever since she learned about everything, she would not even glance at me and would only nod whenever I would talk to her. She wasn’t saying anything, but I knew she blamed my family. She was blaming us. She was blaming me. “I understand, Lucia,” I stated in a low to

The Ex-Wife's Revenge 116: Gray’s Words
HAZEL’S POV Damn that man! Why did he have to come back? Why did he have to show up now that we are suspecting that Jane is alive? Damn him… he was making it hard for all of us. His timing was all wrong. “I am here now Mrs. Moore. Are you sure I am now allowed to enter the Moore Estates? Your son might kick me out again. He wouldn’t think twice to embarrass me in front of those people…” I stated over the phone, looking at the tall building where I used to work at for almost a decade now. Gray and I had never been on good terms ever since Serena came, so I was not sure if I was even allowed to show myself to him after what I did to Serena. I took a deep breath as I waited for the old woman’s response. She was not really old, but she was acting like one. She was acting like she would die anytime soon so that her children would favor her all the time. Cunning, right? “Oh, you don’t have to worry about that, Hazel. I have talked to my son about you representing me as one of the major
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 115: Who the Hell Is He?
SERENA’S POVI shouldn’t be like that. How can I like the kiss of someone who ruined my life? It shouldn’t be that way. I found myself leaving the building, hailing a cab because I had no plans on going back while my face looked like a fucking mess. I didn’t want to show my face to our driver, too. I just didn’t want to be seen by anyone. I felt so embarrassed because of the emotions that were currently living in my chest right now.What the hell is wrong with me? What the fuck is going on?I didn’t go home like I originally planned. My mom and my siblings were there, and I would have some explaining to do if they saw how smudged my lips were.I checked in in an unfamiliar hotel. This was the first hotel that the cab passed by, and I was lucky enough that this wasn’t owned by the Moores. Their properties were scattered all over Texas, so it wouldn’t be impossible if they owned the establishment, too.Lucky for me because they didn’t.I stood in front of the mirror, removing my makeup
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 114: I Shouldn't Like It!
SERENA’S POVI rolled my eyes dramatically, acting irritated, when in fact, his actions were confusing and kind of enjoyable at the same time. Is he jealous? Does he know that stranger?“Who gave you the right to forbid me to talk to someone? You only own this company, Mr. Moore. You don’t own me or anyone that works with you,” I responded, getting rid of his hands off my arm. He should start realizing by now who he wasted. He should start thinking that he would not be able to get rid of the idea of me in his mind.I knew how much I could affect him… no matter how hard he tried to show that he didn’t give a damn.“I am not saying that I own you, Serena. I am telling you this because that man couldn’t be trusted. You should stay away from him. This is for your own good—”“How do you know what’s best for me? You were not even that good before yet you still slid into my inboxes and flirted with me and all. You don’t get the right to judge who’s good for me when you’re not even better…”A
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 113: Stay Away
SERENA’S POV“Miranda, how’s Lucia doing? She’s still sick?” I asked as we walked down the hallway, both of us catching our breaths. How couldn’t we? We were both late and I never wanted to have that in my record. I valued punctuality so much that even if Gray’s opinion about me didn’t matter anymore, I knew I still had to be here on time.“She said she’s still sick right now, Ms. Ambers. She’s currently staying in her own house with her grandchildren. I heard Mr. Moore told her to do so…”It had been two days since Lucia didn’t show up at work due to flu. It was fine, as long as she could rest and spend time with her family. We could clean the office on our own, anyway. “Pay someone to send her groceries and toys for her grandchildren,” I added, worry could be detected on my tone. It was not new to me to send groceries or even financial help to people I wasn’t close with, as long as I knew that they needed it.I knew Lucia wouldn’t accept it if it came from me. I always offered her
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 112: Someone Is Coming Back
GRAY’S POVI watched my mom get assisted by the nurse I hired for her in silence. She just got here a few seconds ago, and the shock on her face when she saw me interrogating my mom just pissed me off.This wasn’t the first time that I saw my mother being alone in a room. Her doctor advised her that she should always be with someone wherever she went because she might get a heart attack anytime. Seeing her alone for the fucking nth time while she was shouting so hard at the person she was talking to on the phone was something I didn’t expect to witness today.Why was she shouting, anyway? If I hadn’t interrupted her, I guessed she wouldn’t know that I was already inside the room. That I was already listening to her private conversation.“Who was the person you were talking to, Mom? You seem so mad. You know it’s not good for your health. You might have a heart attack again…”I promised my father to take care of the family, but I could not just watch them 24/7. I wondered if this had b
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 111: Surprise Visit
VALERIA’S POVSeeing my firstborn talking to the maid gave me mixed emotions. Jane talked to me just a while ago, and she told me how much she would thank me if we just trusted her for her decision this time.She was right. What she did was stupid, and even if she was my daughter, I would still reprimand her for that. Not too intense, though. She seemed to make the right decision of telling her… but her way of having Lucia know was a sign of her weakness. She got caught off guard, she said. I watched Jane and Lucia Davis converse while I remained sitting on the couch, the twins were beside me. Lucia mentioned that she treated my daughter like her own child, and I guessed I did a job well done to not show them what I truly felt by not reacting.To be honest, hearing her say that made me undeniably envious of her. She got to spend time with my daughter without having to think of people forbidding her. She got to be a mother to my child and it took me years before I even got the chance
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 110: Liked by Valeria
SERENA’S POV Lucia, knowing who I truly was went according to what I wanted to happen. Miranda and I got to talk bad about the Moores freely like we used to do when she still hadn’t known about me. It was actually funny because sometimes, she would initiate the conversation to talk badly about them. I originally planned to not tell my family about Lucia, but I realized that it would be another bad decision that I would make.I did not want to hide any secrets from them as that was what we always practiced in our house. A secret could ruin everything. We would lack communication and that was what my mother hated the most aside from being weak and stupid. “You’ll get shocked once you see my sisters,” I stated as I guided Lucia inside our house. This was the time to let them know. It had been two days and my guilt was already over the roof. I couldn’t keep Lucia a secret between only me and my secretary. “I think I would. I was already shocked when I learned that you are truly Jane ev
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 109: Gray’s Assumption
GRAY’S POV“I told you that Serena Ambers is a big-time person, man! First, she bought one of the major shares from your company. Second, she is always favored by the board members. Third, she is the only daughter of Victoria. You know how influential Victoria is due to her connections, right?”“Well, I did not anticipate that. I was busy enjoying the party last night and it fucking shocked me when Aerah made a fucking scene. Is this the kind of drama that you’re dealing with in the Moore Estates almost every day, Gray?”Marco and Kole’s sentences weren’t even interesting anymore. I asked them to come to my penthouse to have a drink with me, as I didn’t want to have this confusion just for myself.Seeing Serena pass out like how she did the last time added to my curiosity about her. She had been working in the Moore Estates for some time now, and it felt like there were still a lot of things that I did not know about her.Just like what my friends told me a while ago. They were the on
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 108: No Other Options
LUCIA’S POVI knew that they were bad, but I could not believe that they would come to this point of evilness. Just thinking of what Jane went through made my stomach ugly. How could I live with those demons for so many years?Jane told me that they still didn’t know who was behind all of these, but thinking that one of them once lived with me for years was just absurd. I couldn’t accept that I served my service to the devils.Jane was currently in the board meeting right now, and I was still here, unable to stop myself from sobbing. My heart was breaking for her. She was too kind to experience such things. She was too kind to even meet those bastards.Now I understood why was she hiding herself. Now I understand why she was being careful all the time. My poor Jane. She couldn’t even remember anything. She didn’t even have any idea who was the devil who tried to kill her.The Moores disgusted me so much. It was just right that I never liked them. It was just right that I loathed them
