The Ex Wife‘s Revenge CHAPTER 67
BELLA'S POVI wake up gasping.My body aches, and my wrist throbs where Ethan grabbed me, my jaw still sore from his grip.The house is silent.I sit up slowly, my breath uneven. I don't know how long I was out, but it wasn't long enough for him to leave because he's still here.And my phone? I glance toward the couch.Still hidden. Still recording.I exhale, steadying myself. I have what I need—the proof. Now, I just have to use it.Mabel's already waiting for me when I pull into the parking lot. We agreed to meet up at the parking lot when I got the evidence.She's leaning against her car, arms crossed, sunglasses hiding her expression. But I can feel the tension radiating off her.The second I step out, she moves. "Did you get it?"I nod, pulling my phone from my bag. I tap the screen and show her the audio file.She exhales with a slow and controlled breath. "Play it."I hesitate. Hearing it again, reliving it. But I press play.The recording crackles to life. My voice was soft bu

BELLA’S POVWalking into the building that once bore my family’s name feels like stepping into the past, but not the kind you want to relive, more like the kind that haunts you when you least expect it. The familiar scent of polished mahogany and expensive cologne clings to the air, but instead of warmth, it fills me with a sense of betrayal so sharp it tightens around my chest like a vice.I move forward, my heels clicking against the sleek marble floors, a sound that used to command attention but now barely earns me a passing glance. The receptionist, a woman I hired myself, doesn’t even pretend to acknowledge me as she files her nails, chewing gum like she has all the time in the world.“I’m here to see Ethan,” I say, keeping my voice steady despite the storm brewing inside me.She slowly looks up, her lips curling with amusement as if she’s enjoying the sight of me standing there, stripped of the power I once held. “Does he know you’re coming?”“Just call him,” I reply, refusing t

BELLA’S POVI stood there, phone pressed against my ear, my breath coming in shallow bursts as the weight of my reality settled on my shoulders. The night air was cold against my skin, but it was nothing compared to the icy dread curling in my stomach.“I was wondering when you’d call.”Carlos’s voice was smooth, unreadable, the kind that sent a shiver down your spine not because it was unkind, but because it held secrets you weren’t sure you wanted to uncover.I swallowed hard, hesitating.I had no idea what I was stepping into, no clue what kind of man I was calling for help. But I knew one thing for certain. Ethan had left me with nothing, and if I wanted even the smallest chance at reclaiming my life, I couldn’t afford to be cautious. Not anymore.“I—” My voice cracked, so I took a slow breath before trying again. “I need help.”There was a pause on the other end, and then, “Where are you?”I glanced around, realizing I had been so lost in my thoughts I hadn’t even noticed where m

BELLA’S POVSilence stretched between us, thick and unyielding. Carlos sat across from me, his fingers tapping lightly against the table, his dark eyes unreadable. He was waiting for me to say something, to explain why I suddenly looked like I had just pieced together a missing part of a puzzle.I took a slow breath, choosing my words carefully. “There’s someone… someone who could help us.”Carlos arched a brow, still unreadable. “Who?”I swallowed, my heart hammering as I said the name out loud. “Edward.”For the first time since I had met Carlos, his expression wavered. It wasn’t shock, but something sharper, something calculating. “Edward Leon, Ethan’s brother?”I nodded. “I’ve only ever had a proper conversation with him once, but that was enough to see it, he hates Ethan. I don’t just mean sibling rivalry or petty resentment. No, Edward loathes him. And I know he’d do anything to take him down.”Carlos leaned back in his chair, arms crossed over his broad chest, watching me close

BELLA'S POVThe sounds of moans and skin slapping against each other echoed through the room and I stood frozen by the door as tears rolled down my face at the sight of my husband on top of another lady in our matrimonial bed.I couldn't speak, couldn't move, couldn't turn away. They were so into the pleasure that they didn't even notice my presence.“Ethan…” I finally managed to mumble and silence immediately filled the room. Ethan slowly turned to look at me and a groan escaped his lips as soon as he set his eyes on me.“Why are you back so early? You weren't supposed to be home until the next four hours. Are you slacking off at work now?” He reprimanded and I watched in despair as he placed a soft kiss on the girl's lips before pulling away and sitting on the bed.“This is what I get after being nothing but a good wife to you for five years?” I asked calmly as tears rolled down my cheeks and he let out a soft chuckle.He got off the bed, stark naked, as he approached me and then be

BELLA'S POV “Help me, please.” She said as she inched closer and I moved away from her in case she was trying to do something to hurt me. “What do you mean?” “Listen, Ethan's asleep right now, but there's more to my relationship with him than he said earlier.” She started when suddenly her eyes darted to the table where the abortion pills sat and her eyes widened in shock and despair. “What has he done to you?” She asked in horror and I just stared at her in confusion. What in the world was going on right now? “He might wake up anytime soon, and if I get caught talking to you, we'd both get in trouble, so meet me at the auction event tomorrow; I have a lot to talk to you about.” She said quickly before turning around to leave and I couldn't help but get curious. “Wait, why should I trust you? You're literally my husband's mistress. What if you're trying to get rid of me?” I asked slowly and she let out a sigh before coming close to me and holding my shoulders with a solemn look

BELLA'S POV“What the hell are you doing?” I yelled, and she quickly placed her hand over my mouth to stop me from shouting.“Calm down! I'm not gonna hurt you. If Ethan finds out you're missing, he's gonna wanna be a good husband and try to find you. If he sees us talking calmly, he would suspect something is going on, but if he sees us like this, he would think we got into a fight. He wouldn't have any reasons to be suspicious, does that make sense?” She replied calmly, and I realized she was right, so I stopped struggling while she took her hand off my mouth.“So, what is it you wanted to tell me?” I asked and she let out a sigh before pulling the mask off. I could tell from her expression that she was troubled and probably afraid.“I was also tricked into being with Ethan, but unlike you, I'm not married to him. However, he owns me for life. My parents' business was on the brink of bankruptcy and my brother nearly died due to a rare disease. Ethan was the only hope we had and he a

BELLA'S POVI sat frozen in my seat as I stared at the intimidating man who looked down at me with a cold smile, and I could feel sweat trickling down my back even though the hall was air-conditioned.“Are you a detective?” I managed to ask and he let out a cold chuckle, one that sent goosebumps across my skin.“I'm the one asking the questions here. Do you know a certain Mabel Miles?” He asked and my brows furrowed in confusion as I looked up at him.“W-why do you ask?” I managed to mumble and his smile immediately faded, causing me to nearly jump in my seat with how scary he looked.He was the most handsome, yet scary man I've ever set my eyes on.“I remember making it clear that only I asked the questions here. You either answer my questions truthfully and nobody gets hurt or…” He suddenly took out a syringe and pressed it close to my neck, making me close my eyes in horror.“Fine, fine. I'll answer all your questions, just get that thing away from me!”“Do you know Mabel Miles?” H

BELLA'S POVMy blood turns to ice. Ethan was standing in my office doorway, watching me.I swallow hard, and my grip tightens on the phone. Before I can say anything, Mabel speaks, her voice smooth and unbothered."Ethan."My breath catches. She said his name. Not mine, but Ethan's name.Not pretending to be someone else.She wants him to know it's her.Ethan doesn't even flinch. He steps further into the room, eyes on me, but his voice is for her."Mabel."The tension is suffocating. I grip the phone tighter, but neither of them acknowledges me. It's like I'm not even here.I feel a pang of jealousy, as his love for her is evident even as she isn't here with us. Even after all these years, I couldn't command his attention the way she did. It doesn't matter what I do or how I do it; he'll never be mine, and he'll never love me."You shouldn't be calling my wife at work," Ethan says. His tone is calm, but I know better. There's a sharpness underneath, something coiled and waiting to sn
The Ex Wife‘s Revenge CHAPTER
BELLA'S POV"Let's just say it involves making someone pay for their actions today," Ethan said cruelly before leaving.Those words kept echoing in my head. How could I sleep knowing that Ethan was going to deal with Edward? I know that Edward can protect himself, but something about Ethan's possessive behavior today was unnerving.I kept checking through the curtains all night to see when Ethan got back, as I couldn't get any rest. I didn't believe for once that Edward was as vile as Ethan claimed. I may be in love, but I'm not that stupid.At past 3:00 in the morning, I saw an all-too-familiar Mustang pull up at the residence, and I knew he was finally back. I rushed back immediately but carefully, laid back down, and closed my eyes while awaiting his presence.I felt his daunting presence even before the door opened. He scanned the room as if checking to see if anything was amiss. Finally, he walked towards the edge of the bed and smoothed my hair down.While looking down at me, he

BELLA'S POV“What's going on here?” I heard Ethan say with a scowl on his face and my heart sank in fear. He walked closer to our side and suddenly grabbed Edward's shirt as he raised his hand to throw a punch.“What? I was just keeping your wife company since you were so busy with your mistress.” Edward replied with a low voice and Ethan's hand froze in the air.“What are you talking about? How did you know that?” He asked in shock as he turned to me with a scowl. “Did you tell him?” He asked, and I quickly shook my head as I tried to explain, but Edward beat me to it.“Why do you have to blame everything on her? You're the one who couldn't keep your tracks clean. I'm sure you know what would happen to you if this gets exposed…” He said with a sly smirk and the veins in Ethan's nearly popped out with how angry he was.Thankfully, the hall was dimly lit and no one noticed the conflict between both of them. The glaring contest was getting terrifying and I knew I had to find a way to st
