The Ex-Wife's Revenge Chapter 52: Separate Lives
GRAY’S POVI could feel my blood rushing in my veins as I looked straight at the road. We just fucking left Serena’s residence, and only I could tell how fucking embarrassed I was because of what happened just a while ago.What were you fucking thinking, Gray? You really thought it was a good idea to visit the woman who clearly showed you that she doesn’t like you around? Your mother fucking told you that Serena did not give you a single fuck!“She is only like that when she’s not feeling well, though. We are okay whenever she feels fine,” I talked to myself. I caught my secretary taking a glimpse of me through the rearview mirror. He was probably thinking that I was losing my mind here. Damn, Serena. What the hell are you doing to me?Speaking of her, she still did not look fine. Her bruises were still visible. Actually, that was the first time I got a closer look at those because she always wore blazers and sleeves at the office. I wasn’t aware that Hazel could fucking scratch her

SERENA’S POVMy brows were almost meeting each other as I went back inside the house. Landon and Miranda were behind my back, and none of them seemed to have the energy to state a word.My heart was still drumming hard. The anxiety and anger were mixing within my chest, unable to tell which one came before everything I felt.That was so freaking close! Gray was not a stupid person to trespass on someone else’s property, but he was also a powerful one to get away with it if he decided to trespass on my house. He was an influential man. If he fucking went inside because Miranda failed to stop him, he would freaking see Kaihly and that would be the end of this freaking revenge. They would know everything with only one glimpse of my sister!“What the hell, Miranda?! How did that man know where we live? Did you freaking tell him? He almost got us! Kaihly, I thought it was only Gray’s secretary that was inside the house? Goddamit!” I exclaimed, my hands slamming the table. Miranda swallowe

GRAY’S POV“Ms. Ambers is here, Mr. Moore…” Hearing that woman’s surname, my hand automatically stopped signing the paper that I had been reviewing for the past hour. The mention of anything about her reminded me of what happened yesterday, filling me with embarrassment on the inside.“Does she have someone with her? Landon Mitchell?” I inquired curiously, trying my best not to sound interested. The man seemed to have a problem with every time that I would go near Serena. That convinced me that he was still in love with her.“Ms. Serena Ambers entered the building alone, Sir. She rode a personal vehicle and didn’t also have someone to drive her here. I don’t think Mr. Landon Mitchell even knows that she went to work today…”Why is she here? I saw her yesterday, and I could say that she wasn’t anything good. She looked pale and weak, minus the part where she stared at me with pure anger. Damn, woman. Why the hell are you here when you should have been resting at home?“What is she doi

SERENA’S POVI could feel Gray’s stare at me as I looked down on the floor. I faked my embarrassment and made my fingertips play with each other, seemingly could not face his gaze.Sorry for what? It sounded funny in my mind while I said it. It actually embarrassed me that I was doing this. My pride could not take this fake-ass acting while this bastard watched me.Would this even work on him? Gray disliked females who acted cute… or maybe not? I was not sure! I did not even have an idea what his type was. I used to be so soft when it came to him and he never liked me that way.“That is not what I am trying to say, Ms. Ambers. I’m not saying that I don’t want you here. I am just following the rules…” he explained, his tone remaining cold as if he didn’t want me here. What the hell is going on with him? I thought he was starting to become too fond of me. What’s with his tone now?“I think I’ll believe you more if only you didn’t sound so mad. You seem to not like me here, Mr. Moore,” I

SERENA’S POVI was impressed by how well Gray maintained our eye contact. He did not even blink nor look away from me as he listened to my flirty voice. I did not know how long I would do this, but the more I stayed inside his office and act like a freaking slut, the more I felt disgusted by myself.How can I even do this? Is this my hidden talent?“To be honest, Ms. Ambers, you would not be the vice president of this company if it weren’t for your abilities to run a business,” he answered, a small smile erupting on his lips. Even though I was just faking my kindness toward him, I couldn’t help but feel flattered when I heard what he said. I loved the compliment of being good, but the moment I realized that it came from this man, my fantasy would immediately disappear.I didn’t need his validation. I loved to know that I was doing good, though. That only meant my years of practice and hard work weren’t wasted. “Hmm… I guess that compliment means we are okay, then? I know that we have

GRAY’S POV I could not understand where was she coming from. Yes, I paid for her brother’s tuition for the last time and it was only because her siblings did not have any idea what she was doing while working. But the groceries, pocket money, exam fee—I did not know about that. The last time I helped his brother was when Hazel Brown was fired and he messaged me, saying how thankful he was for giving his sister a job and how he was sorry because of what Hazel did. Well, that college tuition fee was part of Hazel’s contract with the company, anyway. It only got terminated the time she did that to Serena, but I still had his brother get the benefit even if the deal was no longer effective. “I hope you can hear yourself right now, Ms. Brown. Your brother’s college tuition fee was part of the contract. Any other financial aid that you have mentioned does not involve me anymore. You can ask my mother about it. She might have been the one who did that since she is too fond of you.”“Make

SERENA’S POV — Serena’s Dream / Memory —I stared at my reflection in the mirror, naked and my hair wet. I woke up today with a puffy eye due to crying the whole night. Last night was supposed to be a special night for me. We were supposed to celebrate my birthday, but Gray did not fulfill his promise. He did not show up. He did not even greet me through text or call. The only good thing yesterday was when my father visited me here. He made me feel special when it should be Gray doing that. How could he forget my birthday when I never forget to remind him about that damn dinner? Is he too busy that he forgot he had a wife? I knew we were only married through papers. He did not love me and I was merely a stranger to him, but can’t he at least show up as a respect to his wife? We were not personally in a relationship, but in the eyes of the public and the eyes of the law, he was married to me. Is he even taking this marriage seriously? “Tsk. What kind of question is that, Jane? Of c

SERENA’S POV — Serena’s Dream / Memory Continuation —I walked toward the dining room silently, hoping to see nothing but the food Lucia had prepared for me. I would surely eat the leftovers from last night. I would not let the food I worked hard for go to waste just because Gray did not show up. Lucia and I put our blood, sweat, and tears for all of these.“Lucia, I am here now…” I announced as I entered the dining room—only to halt and fall silent when I saw a man sitting at the end of the table. All of the dishes that we cooked yesterday were served. His eyes went straight to where I was, but he did not say anything or even greet me good morning. He was still here? I thought he had left already. I intentionally took my time preparing for the day because I thought he would not bother waiting for me. My eyes fell on his empty plate. It seemed like he had been waiting for me to come down and join him. It was clean and shining. “Good morning,” I greeted in a low voice, smiling fain

The Ex-Wife's Revenge 147: Last Farewell
SERENA’S POVGray Moore looked at me straightly as I bid my goodbye to his friends. He had been waiting for his turn, but even I felt like I was not ready to go yet. I felt like I still needed to say something to him before finally leaving the state.My family was already inside the jet, waiting for me to get inside so we could all leave this place. I thought Gray’s friends understood me when they started waving their hands as they walked away from the both of us.We needed privacy, and I was thankful they weren’t slow to understand what I wanted to happen.“I am leaving now. You may or may not see me anymore once this plane leaves to send us somewhere you’ll probably know soon only if you’re desperate enough to find where I live…” I stated, chuckling. Knowing Gray, he could pay millions just to get what he wanted. “I’ll know where you are. I’d go crazy if I didn’t get an update—”“I would not text you or anything, Gray. I would cut connections to all of you. It is also a challenge f
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 146: Private Visit
SERENA’S POVThe sound of my heels colliding with the floor surrounded the empty hallway of this floor. Weeks later and I finally had the time to visit this wench face-to-face.Hazel Brown was sent to jail immediately the day I got rescued, as she didn’t have any major injuries like Geraldine Moore. I did not know how had she been since she was arrested, but I hoped she was suffering here. I hoped she would rot here.I went inside a room when a policeman opened the door for me. This room was just for private visitations, so this was far from Hazel’s cell. This one was decent and might be comfortable for her. I did not want her to feel this good while she was in jail.“Why did you visit me here? Is sending me to jail not enough for you?” she asked the moment I sat down in front of her. Her hands were handcuffed and there were two policemen behind her, while my bodyguards were on my side. “Any form of punishment and torture would never be enough for me, Hazel Brown. You’re lucky I stil
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 145: Forgiveness
AERAH’S POV My heart was throbbing in anxiety as the maid of the mansion escorted me inside. This wasn’t my first time coming here, but this was the only time that I dared to enter the huge structure and face the people whom I had been having anxiety about talking with. I heard my brother was here again. I needed to talk to him… at least just this once. “I did not expect to see you here, Ms. Moore. You’re looking for your brother?” I was startled when I heard a voice that was similar to the voice of the person that I was most scared to face. Looking to the side, I saw Kaihly Ambers sitting on one of the couches, a plate filled with fruits resting on her lap. She was alone there, and I was so thankful for that. She looked exactly like Kelsey, the only difference was that she had soft features and lacked the boldness on her face. “Y-Yes. Have you seen him? I heard he’s here… according to his secretary. I just need to talk to him,” I answered, my confidence leaving me as the minutes
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 144: Fly
GRAY’S POV Ever since Jane got rescued and woke up from her deep slumber, I started having a new routine. It felt like I was already living in their house because I refused to leave her side even though I had a ton of paperwork to do. One part of her room looked like my office. It had a table and a swivel chair where I did what I was supposed to do in my office. Her family offered me a room, but as I said, I refused to leave her side. I would only do so if it were nighttime. But everything must come to an end. When Jane finally healed, I took the initiative to leave her alone and only met with her whenever she went to work. I would visit her from time to time, though—but only if she allowed it. “What the hell is this, Gray? What’s the meaning of this?” Jane inquired curiously as she put familiar papers on my table. “Have you read it?” I asked her back. The last time I saw those papers was already years ago, when I thought she had died, and all I could ever think was to give her e
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 143: Truth and Answers
GRAY’S POVI was not expecting Jane’s family to let me enter their home after all the things that happened. I wouldn’t question it if they banned me here, but that was not the thing they did. They simply let me wander around their house as if I did not do anything wrong, as we all waited for my wife to wake up.Jane was peacefully sleeping in her room, a bedside monitor standing beside her. It had been two days since she got rescued, and she still hadn’t woken up since then. Fortunately, they didn’t hurt her when we hadn’t arrived where they hid her, so there was nothing serious that happened to her body aside from the wound that she got before they took her. She already got the treatment that she needed, but her doctor said she was still under trauma, which was why she wasn’t waking up.My phone had been vibrating for a while now. It wasn’t a call from anyone but text messages from my sister. She had been asking me if I was going to visit our mother in the hospital, and if I was eve
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 142: Geraldine’s End
SERENA’S POV“Oh, stop overreacting, Aerah Celine. It’s just a shot on your leg. Why bother to cry?”I could not believe this old hag. It felt so strange listening to her confident voice when I had been watching her fake her illness a thousand years ago. How could she do all of that stuff? How could she shoot her daughter?“Mommy, stop this now, please—”“Oh, shut the hell up, Aerah Celine! The moment you chose to side with the woman, I no longer considered you as my daughter! How could you betray your mother, huh?! You are just like your brother—”“And how can you call yourself our mother while doing all of these, huh? I can’t believe you, Mom. After all these years… after all of the things that I have done for our family…”I still could feel the metallic material that was pointed at my temple, but after hours of waiting and I finally got to hear Gray’s voice, waves of relief washed over my chest. We were still here yet I already felt like my problems were now resolved. There was no
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 141: Mastermind
SERENA’S POVI felt lightheaded as Charles continued carrying me. The only hope that I had with me right now was the fact that Gray would be with us anytime soon. How dumb it was to feel like this when I was the one who ran away from him before I got kidnapped.I was the one who put us all into this.“Jane, I have to stop carrying you for now. Aerah Celine will guide you while I protect the three of us from any person who might come to us. This will be quick. Gray and the backups will be here anytime soon…” Charles whispered to me, making me open my eyes amidst the gunshot that I was hearing around the building.I was comfortable being carried by him, as my injured leg could not take it anymore. But hearing that this would be over soon, it was as if the motivation to get through all of these that I thought had left my body made me agree to what he said.My silent nod was his cue to put me down carefully. The moment that my feet felt the solid ground immediately had me gasp in pain. Ae
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 140: Charles and Aerah
SERENA’S POV My lips seemed to be experiencing draught due to dryness, my bruised leg was numb, and I was damn well sure that I had lost a lot of blood during my whole stay in this building. It had been so many hours since Hazel told me those things. She said that she would finish me and I would not be able to leave this place alive. During my hours of stay here, I had a lot of time to think of what she told me. I even came across thinking of the things that I wanted to tell not just to my family but also to Gray before Hazel decided to kill me. It was so heavy in my chest to even think that I would not have the chance to talk to Gray after learning all of those things, but somehow, while I stayed all alone here for I did not know how many hours, there was a time that I accepted that this would be my end. That I would die without achieving the justice and happiness that I deserved. I did not know what Hazel was waiting for. Is this her way of killing me? To let me have an infection
The Ex-Wife's Revenge 139: The Search
GRAY’S POVIt had been a day since Jane went missing. Because of this happening, we paused everything that we were about to do during the whole team building. To be fair to the other employees who had been so excited about this out-of-town activity, I gave them all a budget to stay on a nearby island where they could enjoy things without interruptions.There were only a few of us left here, and when I said few, only Jane’s relatives and mine were present. Including the police officers that we contacted, of course.“Look for my daughter in all the corners of this island and the nearby ones. It is so impossible for her to be missing in this small place. I need you to find her.”The woman whom they called Victoria, the mother of the love of my life sat at the end of the table with a wine glass in front of her. Just like what they described her, she had a strong facade because of her sharp features which no one dared to talk about while she was speaking.I did not know if I was the only o
