The Wife He Wants Back! CHAPTER 167
CHARLOTTE’S POVShe swallowed, her eyes expressing her hesitance before she went on explain. “I know this sounds crazy but trust me. I don’t have these instincts for nothing! It was the same with me back then when my stupid husband left me for his mistress, and now I’m having the same feeling towards Hudson.”I blinked, not believing my ears. “What are you saying Lucia? How can you compare your useless ex-husband to my Huddie? That makes no sense!” I shot at her, truly offended.She sighed deeply as she looked at me, “Char, look, he came to your performance today, but he didn’t get you any gifts or flowers” she said, urging me to look around at other women that had flowers or gift boxes in their arms with their husbands standing close by, smiling with them.“He didn’t come to greet or talk to you either,” she added, her voice calm as I digested her words with a trembling heart. “I’ve been watching him all afternoon Char, he didn’t even glance at you once! And he is making no attempt t

HUDSON’S POV“Okay baby, sweet dreams”“Sweet dreams too, daddy. I love you” she said happily, her adorable tone making me chuckle as I responded I love you back to her but she pressed on for more. “You love only me right, daddy?” she asked, “I will always be your princess, right?”“Hmm, let me think” I mumbled, made a thinking face even though I knew she couldn’t see me since this was a call. “Huh? Daddy!” she exclaimed, complaining loudly with a pout that I knew would be on her lips right now, even if I couldn’t see her. “You’re no more my prince charming, I take it back!”“Woah, okay, okay princess,” I chuckled, thoroughly amused and happy with how much of a talkative she was becoming.“I apologize my princess, you’re the only one I have! And I will love you forever!” I assured her, smiling as she said she would think about forgiving me later on tomorrow. “Tomorrow? Isn’t that a bit too harsh, princess?” I argued.“Your princess says tomorrow daddy, why are you insisting?” she reto

HUDSON’S POVRather, when I reached for her hands, she quickly snatched it away, avoiding my eyes as she addressed me. And this time, her tone was like that of the Valerie I had met before all the times we’ve spent together recently. “No, that’s not what I’m talking about. You’re mistaken”But I didn’t relent. Since I had decided to take responsibility of the way she made me feel, it included having difficult conversations like this. If I couldn’t understand her struggles then what was my reason for being in her life? How would I prove I was ready for what was going on between us? How could I proof I was ready for us?“Val,” I called her softly, moving myself so I would close the distance between us. “Please look at me,” she refused at first but did a moment later, and when my eyes met her green ones, I could see the hurt floating in her eyes. I wanted to ask her what was wrong, why she hurt herself that day and why she was so worried but she beat me to it. “You cannot let Aby do that

CHARLOTTE’S POV“The number you’re trying to call, is not available at the moment. Please hold on or call back later” those words, those same words were what my phone kept saying each and every time I dialed his number. I didn’t stop trying and the robotic voice didn’t stop telling me the same words either.“Ma-Madame,” Maria stuttered behind me, “He is not picking up?” I asked, turning to face her. The white walls of the living room speeding past my eyes with how fast I spun around. “Why won’t he pick up? Are you sure he’s not at the office?”She bowed in disappointment before nodding her head as a yes. “But he said he has work, that he will be going to the office. If he is not at the office then where is he?!” I asked out loud, my voice shaky as I looked to the maids for answers but no one would respond, each of them shuffling on their feet as they mumbled amongst themselves.I have to keep trying. I have to keep calling, he would have to take my calls at some point! It was almost m

VALERIE’S POV“I’m so sorry… I’m so sorry!’ he cried out, his blue eyes glistening as tears rolled down each of them. “I didn’t know… I did not realize how bad my actions affected you. It was all my fault! I was stupid, young and very foolish, Valerie!”“I didn’t wan to lose to Grandpa because he had said I would end up loving you, so I was mean to you. I was cold and rude! I had thought that, if I was like that it would’ve made you give up and backed out of you and Grandpa’s deal! It was foolish! I am so ashamed of myself, Valerie. I am so ashamed” he explained, tears rolling down his cheeks as he held my hands, desperately trying to explain himself.And I didn’t know how to feel about that.When I started talking, I had no intention of evoking this reaction from him. I never even imagined he would behave like this! Crying, apologizing and begging for me not to leave him. They were all I ever wanted from him back then. Every day, I would stay up in my room and wished for him to do th

CHARLOTTE’S POVLucia was right. Hudson could decide not to come home but that doesn’t mean I can’t go to him here at the company. He may ignore me but he would most definitely not cause a scene at the office where public eyes could see. Hence, making Lucia’s plan to go to his office very efficient.How didn’t I think of this before?“Excuse me Ma’am, but who are you?” the security just outside the elevator on Hudson’s office floor asked, blocking my path. “What?”“Without a pass you can’t get through Ma’am” he said, looking unapologetic as he literally stopped me in front of the few staffs present. What sort of embarrassment is this?! “What the hell are you doing?” I spat in disgust as my eyes ran down his form, “Don’t you know who I am? What kind of sick joke is this?!”“No offense Ma’am but noise is restricted on this floor” he retorted, sparking my irritation as he communicated to God knows who on that communicating device seated on his waist. Soon after more security came rushing

CHARLOTTE'S POVAs if my day couldn’t get any worse, she just had to show up! To pop up out of nowhere just when I was losing my shit over finding out that Hudson cheated on me. “You’re here to mock me, aren’t you? To gloat in my face just like all those other bitches, aren’t you?! Beat the dog while its down, eh?” I sneered, my eyes glaring daggers as I equally approached her incoming form.“Charlotte, are you well?” she asked instead, her overall expression nonchalant like she couldn’t be bothered by my approaching form. “What are you talking about?”“Admit it!” I spat angrily, my temper rolling as I moved even closer to her. “You’re here to laugh at me. You think I’m pathetic? You think I’m stupid, right?! So stupid that I couldn’t see Hudson was cheating me!” I sneered in her face, each word leaving a bitter taste in my mouth as it further confirmed that this was truly happening and to me, of all people!But sadly, my inner turmoil only brought joy to the face to the brown-haired

VALERIE’S POV“G-get lost?”“H-how can you be so mean to me?!” she shrilled; her brown eyes red rimmed from shedding so much tears and more still continued to drip. Her mascara was far gone as it had already formed a long streak down her both cheeks since I stepped into the office. I already knew she was crying.She had most definitely seen the makeup stain on his suit, just like I had planned and now nothing will hold back her doubts and fears. I knew she wouldn’t accept that Hudson was cheating on her so easily if she hadn’t seen it with her two eyes. He was after all loyal to her all these years, not once having a scandal or looking at other women. A man with such devotion, what woman would believe he was cheating without concrete proof? No one!And as such, I had to create one for her.I couldn’t show myself just yet so telling her about it was out of the question. Hence, my reason for intentionally applying a bit of my makeup on his suit earlier this morning before we came to his

VALERIE’S POV“Grandpa!”“Daddy!” my babies squealed out, each of them racing to the different men in delight. Their excited laughter filling the air as I slowly joined from behind, a flawless smile on my face as well the moment I took in the floored expressions on literally everyone’s face at the table!Every single person had stood up from shock, their eyes bulging, their stylish yet comfortable outfits making the table look colorful as they watched those oblivious trio of mine, that simply couldn’t be bothered as they switched hugs between their daddy and Grandpa. It truly was a funny sight to be honest. “Valerie,” Grandpa called out, my name rolling of his lips breathlessly as he spread his arms wide open for me.“My dear, welcome!” I smiled back, unable to resist his contagious smiles as I took off my sunshades to hug him.“Good morning, Grandpa. Sorry, we are late!” I apologized, pulling back from his warm hug just in time to watch him wave it off like it was nothing. “What? Wha

CHARLOTTE’S POV The sun had hung up high in the sky by the time I had arrived at the mansion. Today was to be the old man’s classic ranch day! Another one of his practices where he made everyone gather in the fields for his amusement. I call it; the mud day! A day you should get prepared to be attacked with the unpleasant smell of horse pop and other animals that he reared for fun. You get stained and do stupid chores while he relaxed at a spot on his wheelchair, watching you make a fool out of yourself. An eerie way to have fun if you ask me, but what do I know? I after all wanted to become his granddaughter in law, so I guess I had to endure. Which was why I was seated here, under a very stylish canopy with individuals I would rather not even glance at on a normal day. “Ah! Such a great weather today, isn’t it?” Coco, Hudson’s elder cousin commented, letting out a sigh as she took off her sunshades to bask in the morning sun. I just discreetly rolled my eyes at her, yeah the we

CHARLOTTE’S POVCold.That sensation right there, was what I felt through out my body. Its unrepentant poison coursing through every nerve on my skin as I laid there in the slightly reddish water of my bathtub. Caused by the deep cut on my arm. An injury I had inflicted on myself after knocking down the hand dryer in the bathroom as a result of my anger and frustrations.Who wouldn’t be in my situation? Who? I would love to see that person!Just then, I heard footsteps approach the bathroom and my head rose from its bent position, my eyes hopeful as I waited for the man that I wanted to walk in. The only man that could make all these heartaches go away… But all hope came crashing down as a lean physique man rather, walked in. His movements skeptical and his eyes scanning the bathroom before settling on me.Alarm shot up in his eyes as he took in my condition, “Madame!” Ethan cried out, rushing to me.“Are you okay? You’re bleeding… can you hear me?” he probed, fussing around in the ba

VALERIE’S POVA moment of silence passed after Mason’s question. Everyone keeping quiet and looking expectantly at, well… Hudson. He was the daddy here, right? His son just asked him a question then. “Daddy?” Miley pressed, blinking her green eyes at the screen.“Err-I-” Hudson stuttered, seemingly speechless at the moment as he shared a surprised look with me. But eventually, “No. I’m not married, Mason” he responded, his voice firm.“I told you!” Miley announced immediately, her eyes fixed on Mason. “But he took so many pictures with the shiny hair lady and none with mommy!” Miles argued and just then I realized what was going on. “Daddy, why didn’t you take pictures with mommy?”I felt Hudson suck a breath as he tried to come up with answers for these curious trio of mine. They had most definitely surfed the internet again despite my warnings. But then again, these things were bound to come out one day. No matter how much we wanted to avoid it, it would find a way to show its ugly h

VALERIE’S POV“What happened?!”“Sir! She just started bleeding and-“Through her nostrils?!” he bellowed, panic coursing through each word as he rushed to her small form on the living room couch, the maid following behind. “Aby, baby, can you hear me?” he called out eagerly, cupping her cheek for a bit as he tried wiping off the blood that had stained her clothes all over.“What the fuck happened here?! Why is there so much blood?” he roared, frightening the already trembling maid. “This-it has happened before Sir. She started having nose bleeds a few weeks back, but she has never passed out because of it! I just found her bleeding at the stairs when I called you and now she- she…” the maid cried out, her voice breaking as she broke into tears.But Hudson was having none of it, “Abrille.”“Abrille!!”“Shit! She’s so cold. Get James and the car, NOW!” he thundered, his eyes blazing with anger as he hurriedly cuddled the little girl to his chest before rushing to the front door. His l

HUDSON'S POV“It is! It is Hudson, it is!” she snapped, her voice cold. “You’re embarrassed and angry because people now know about me. About our dealings with each other! You wanted to keep me hidden and only meet me when you wanted to, isn’t it? That’s why you brought up that whole talk of getting us a home!”What?My blood boiled hot at those words. Was that what she was thinking? Was that why she had been giving me cold shoulder all these why?! Without trying to understand me?! “There’s a reason why I wanted to keep you hidden!” I argued, my voice loud. “There was a reason I wanted us to build a home where I can easily go to everyday after work without having to remember Charlotte was just few blocks down the street! I wanted us all to be safe, I wanted you and our kids, our family to be safe from any drama that may arise for the meantime! I never planned to keep you hidden forever, Valerie! How could say things like this?!”“Now, they know all about us what next? What next?! What

HUDSON’S POV“Hudson!”“Huddie, it was her!” a groan of frustration almost left my lips as I heard her yell from outside my office door. There really is no stopping her, is there?She wouldn’t stop screaming about like a crazy person! This was the third time she was going at it just today and honestly; I was so sick of it! But before I could move to lock my door, it flung open and in she came. Fully fledged with her brown eyes holding promises of another round of screaming. I pressed my eyes shut as I groaned inwardly, totally disliking the way my evening was going.First, I hadn’t heard from Val these past days ever since she left me standing at her company’s parking lot. That alone was enough to trouble my mind, and attending that stupid handover party with Charlotte didn’t help matters. Mom refused to listen to a word I said, all she cared about was how I was letting myself get seduced by Val.So, granting Charlotte a space in the business was her own way of reminding me what was i

CHARLOTTE’S POV“Looks like your dad and I, are going to have a longgg chat” she whispered, a chilling smirk playing on her lips as she slowly leaned away from my face. She was fond of doing this. Always looking down on me with contempt, like she was better than I was! But in as much as I wanted to blast at her for doing so, I had more pressing issues to worry about.What did she mean I should go complain to my father? What did she mean by saying they were going to have a long chat?!Could she…could she have found out something? About my father?No. No, that’s not possible!We took precautions and everything had been smooth so far. How could she know about him? Or linked our relationship together?It was impossible! Absolutely impossible!She was probably just bluffing and wanting to get a rise out of me. “Manipulative crazy bitch!” I cussed underneath my breath and turned to get her before she fully left the environment.“Hey!” I called out, my irritation reaching the roof as I watche

VALERIE’S POV“Have you had dinner, yet?“It’s past 10pm, go to bed and leave your study alone, Valerie!” I scoffed loudly at that last message. Is he scolding me now? What, no more sweet messages? No more, ‘my love’ or did my goddess take a picture today for me?Absolutely nothing!He just went all out and didn’t contact me the whole day until this very moment! What do I make of this, huh? He was protesting? A show of displeasure after my words yesterday about him waiting till I had made my decision? “Pfft! Fucking dickhead” I cussed under my breath as I partially slammed my phone on a stack of files close by. Not sending any response to those messages either. Not like I used to respond though but… whatever.Just then my phone buzzed again and I quickly grabbed it to see what other scolding text he had sent. But only after I found myself happily unlocking my phone that I realized just exactly what I was doing.“Woah, okay Valerie, okay.” I softly scolded myself, putting down the phon
