The Rejected Ex-wife 23 - The Charismatic daughter-in-law
It’s been three weeks since the accident, and June was finally out of the woods. Her situation had been hidden from the general public to protect her while she recuperated in Rafael’s home.Every day, Doctor Carson attended to her, and today was no different. However, the details of her murder attempt were still unclear, with no evidence to prove or ascertain how she got into that situation.The Rivera mother-and-daughter duo had done a clean job, leaving no trace behind. Hence, June was needed to clarify some things.“I was at the hospital when she suddenly dragged me into the closet,” June recounted the details of her murder attempt. “She told me how she made me unable to conceive by putting some potions in my food while we lived together.”“After stabbing me multiple times, she said I would be found by some people who would make it seem like it was suicide.”A dry laugh evaporated from June as she spoke to Rafael and Doctor Carson, who listened with tight faces as she narrated the

“Come on, keep walking,” Doctor Carson said to June as she limped around the house.Today was physical therapy—one of the days she got to go out and exercise her body. The stab wounds were healing, and so were the internal wounds.Doctor Carson had taken responsibility for her, and she was very grateful for his help so far. Her body was slowly but surely getting back into shape, and she owed it all to him.After their session, they returned to the house and sat in the living room.“Thank you,” June said to the maid who served them a drink.“How are you feeling?” Doctor Carson asked after he took a sip.“I feel stronger,” she replied. “I just wish I could hasten up the process and get myself useful.”“You will have all the time to do whatever you want when you are well and strong,” the doctor remarked. “Remember—”“Health is wealth,” June finished for him, and they shared a laugh.Every time she spoke about how she hated the way her recuperation process made her feel, Doctor Carson rep

June was lying on her bed when she heard little knocks on the door.It didn’t take a second before Luis’s little head squished its way into the room with a blinding smile on his face. As soon as she saw him, her heart felt so full of love and pain at the same time.“Baby!” She tried to put up a cheerful expression, but her words came out flat.Luis pushed open the door, letting himself in with some heavy books in his hands. June looked at the books with confusion. Surely, he didn’t plan on reading her such lengthy, serious-looking books.Getting to the stool beside her bed, Luis placed the books on it and the bed beside her. “Auntie! I brought my baby pictures!” he said with a smile that sucked the frigid look off June’s face.With eyes lit, she gleamed, “Really? I bet you were very handsome as a baby.” She cooed, ruffling his hair.Luis loved the feel of his auntie’s hand on his hair. For others, he would throw a tantrum when they wanted to mess with his hair, but with her, it was so

June stood in front of Rafael’s office with her phone in hand.Today was the day she left the house. She needed to look over spaces for her new company, but she didn’t know how Rafael would take to her finally leaving the house.It was no surprise that he didn’t like having her leave the house, especially when she was only fully recovering from the last attack. In consideration of her health, she had put off going out for the longest period of time.However, there was no way for her to move her plans forward without going out to sort out other things needed for the launch of her company.Over time, she had even brushed up on her skills, drawing out architectural designs just to pass time—designs she planned to use as models for the first set of projects she intended to carry out as soon as her company went live.Three knocks on the door, and June was asked into Rafael’s office.One look at her, and he shook his head. “No.”June’s shoulders sagged. “You can’t say no when you haven’t he

June sat at a table with a distraught Lucy seated before her.After meeting her former colleague in front of the restaurant, she expertly handled the situation, and they all made their way to another restaurant, where she took a separate table to discuss with her.“What happened?” June asked after they had been served. “How did you end up here?”The woman could barely speak with the amount of tears that dripped from her eyes. “I was fired from the company,” she managed to say between the tears.June’s heart broke at her words. “Why would he fire you? You are the best at what you do,” she spoke, confusion written on her face.The woman seated before her was one of the best closers she had ever encountered. She was the head of project management at her ex-husband’s firm, and for the three years she worked at LT Constructions, Lucy had won over clientele and projects that raked millions and billions into the company.Why the hell would she suddenly get fired?“I don’t know.” Lucy’s voice

How could he tell his mother that their company was in the hands of his wife?How could he explain that April had gone out of his control and now secretly called the shots in their beloved company? Since the day he discovered his cunning wife’s ways, everything had gone downhill.“Lucy Garfield was betraying us,” he managed to say before his father stepped into the conversation.“And the best person to replace her was your pregnant wife?!” the elderly man roared. “Have you lost your brains? Have you gone mad, Ethan?!”Ethan’s mouth shook at the fury of his father. He fell to the floor. “April has more knowledge and experience than you give her credit for, Father!“She can handle the posi

The Rejected Ex-wife 80 - Are you Mrs. Rivera?
Mrs Evelyn left the house a few hours after June left for work. It was past noon when she finally left the house with some money to aid her journey. She dressed in a black assemble and boarded a cab that headed to the Rivera family house. When she reached the neighbourhood, she put on her face mask and sneaked her way into the estate where her home stood in majesty. Her entry was swift and painless. The house seemed nearly deserted, and it was easy for her to manoeuvre her way into the place she had lived for most of her life. As soon as she got in, she headed right for her bedroom with her heart in her mouth. The last thing she wanted was to get caught in breaking into her own home, or worse, April finding out she was in the house. Evelyn was sure it wouldn’t end well if April met her in the house or got to know she had been anywhere near the parameters of the house. Nostalgic feelings attacked her upon entering her bedroom, and she was immediately reminded of who she had lost.
The Rejected Ex-wife 79 - Let me take care of you
Rafael left the sitting room when Mrs Evelyn’s tears grew heavy. June’s heart broke at the sight of her mother looking so distraught and grieved. “Mother...” Her eyes glassed with unshed tears. “I don’t deserve your kindness,” Evelyn said and stood on your feet. “It's preposterous of me to accept anything from you after all I did to you.” “Mother..”“No.” Evelyn shook her head and wiped her tears. “What I did is unforgivable. I maltreated and let you suffer because I couldn’t deal with my grief.”Tears pooled June’s eyes as she listened to her mother. “All these years, I blamed you. I blamed you for getting lost as a child in that hospital. I blamed you for putting our family through tough times, I blamed you for my husband’s death. Anytime something evil came to me, I found a way to blame you for it.” “I hated the fact I lost you and couldn’t bear the guilt of losing you as a child in that hospital, so I decided to bring in someone who could replace you. I brought in the devil a
The Rejected Ex-wife 78 - What’s going on?
The entire house was silent as eyes turned to April with shock. “It’s a lie! She isn’t alright! The doctors are coming to pick her up! I already told you all she lost her mind! Why...why can’t you see it?” April cried but this time no one bought her facade. People who were once on her side, having pity and empathy for her suddenly stepped aside in shock as they watched her lie repeatedly. “Mother! Please, stop this.” April moved towards Evelyn who stepped back in fear. “Please! I know you are hurting from father’s death but I promise, things will be fine. I will take care of you and your doctor will soon be here.”“Just-”“Do not take one more step,” June said in a tone that brought goosebumps to the skin of her hearers. “One more step and I promise, you would be taken to the hospital yourself.” When April found that no one believed her act and everything was out in the open, she wiped her face clean and put a stern look on her face. “Enough, June. Congratulations! You found a mad
The Rejected Ex-wife 77 - I’d like to see you try!
“Sister! Why are you so bent on slandering me? Why are you so-” April fell to the floor, tears streaming down her eyes. “The past few days have been hell for me since father’s untimely death, and mother’s insanity.”“I tried calling you for the longest time but you refused to pick my calls.” She wept, “Now you show up here and try to pin this on me? Why do you hate me so much, sister? What did I ever do?” The visitors were moved by compassion for April and scorn for her sister. “That woman is such a wicked person!” One said in anger.“She doesn’t care for her mother! She is just here to cause a scene!” Another said, “Why are they letting crap like her come into this house? Mrs Evelyn had already told us about this daughter of hers before she lost her mind. She should not be allowed to come into this house!”“Such a shameless woman! Bullying her younger sister for trying to carry the family name while she whores about! Despicable!”Soon enough, the entire house turned against June w

His face froze, and he abandoned everything he had at hand. “Cancel the meetings and ready the car. We leave immediately!” Rafael hit the road to a private hospital where his wife was held.

June returned home from a long day of work at the site. The building project was on course after her designs were approved. Joel Patel and some men were assigned to ensure the building was a physical representation of the design while she handled the job of ensuring everything was under control. “There you are!” June jolted at the sound of her mother-in-law who approached her with a smile. “How are you doing?”“Mother!” She greeted me with a smile. “I’ve missed you!” “Oh dear, I missed you too. You and my sweet boys.” She cooed. “Have you eaten? I brought some food from home. Let’s have an early dinner.

“You’ve got to be joking,” Evelyn said with a small smile but was met with bone-serious looks from her daughter and her strange man. When she saw that this was not a joke, she lost it. “Are you crazy? Have you gone mad?! Do not for one moment think you can intimidate me into giving away my company because you will be in for a rude awakening.”“Read my lips. I am not Ethan. Neither am I any of his godforsaken parents, if you try to mess with me, I will bring you down without a moment's thought.”April and Colton shared gazes and burst into a round of mocking laughter together. “You didn’t tell me she was this feisty, darling,” Colton said and kissed the space between her neck and body. “Oh pay her no mind. She is all bark and no bite.” April said, closing her eyes as she leaned into the kiss. “I have her on leech.” Evelyn's eyes reddened and she shook with anger. “Just try me. I beg you. Test me this time and see if I don’t bite you. I am done playing your silly games, child.”She s
The Rejected Ex-wife 72 - Would you like a demonstration?
June and her team were seated in one of Ambrose Corporation's meeting rooms, where they were set to present the final design of the new office project. While they waited for Rafael, June felt her nerves twist. She wanted her husband to like this design. With every project she embarked on, she aimed for perfection but with her husband in the picture, she was reaching for the stars. The last thing she wanted was to get this deal solely because she was his wife. Hence, when Rafael delayed to show up, her nerves twisted all over the place. Soon enough, Rafael came into the meeting, and they all stood up to welcome him. “I am sorry for my lateness.” He said with his eyes fixated on June. Lucy and Joel smiled awkwardly. They could wait a lifetime if it meant meeting with such a royalty-personified human! They must have done something right in their former lives to be blessed with such an opportunity! “It’s no problem,” June said and they all had their seats. Throughout the viewing, Ra
