The Wife He Wants Back! Chapter 1
VALERIE POV“Goodness! I have no idea which rapid dog bit my son that day when he married you.” I clenched my fingers unconsciously around the damn papers while my “dear” mother-in-law rained insults on me.“Not only did you stop him from marrying someone decent like Charlotte, you also went ahead to hurt her and my grandkids!”“I never pushed her! Sh-”“You’re a monster!” she yelled venomously. I took shaky steps backwards in disbelief. Me? A monster!?“Aren’t you going to say anything?!” I spat angrily at Hudson, the very man who was supposed to be my husband.“You mean defend your lies?” He questioned; his expression was cold and mocking.“How about you tell everyone how you secretly stopped donating blood for Charlotte, huh?” I froze at his words. How did he find out? That was just two months ago.I had been feeling weak a lot and missed going one time, and the second time I went for it, I found out I was pregnant. I was finally pregnant after trying so hard for three years.Surel

VALERIE POV It’s been over an hour since I signed the divorce papers and left the entire Rodriguez family gawking in surprise downstairs, and yet here I was still crying.I may have been quite bold downstairs but honestly? It hurt, so fucking much! My heart felt like a thousand horse had stepped on it and I couldn’t breathe. My 4 years obsession had finally come to an end and with it my shattered heart. For 4 years of my life, I had loved and cherished one man, did everything in my power to make him see me but somehow it only seemed to make him hate me more.I stared down at the little garden below my window, a rose bunch that Grandpa had specially planted for me. Poor man, he didn’t know what had gone down today. The flowers danced happily with the gentle breeze, as though mocking me. "Go ahead, laugh at me," I croaked, my voice cracking with emotion. "I'm pretty stupid, aren't I?""You most definitely are." I spun around immediately, my anger flaring as I faced the evilness herself.

HUDSON’S POV“Who would have thought that we would be free of that ungrateful brat?” Mom beamed, casting me a meaningful look.“I know, right? Good riddance to bad rubbish." Aunt Claire added with a chuckle. “What’s important now is for Charlotte to nurse her health; my grandson can’t suffer any more stress, okay?”“Yes, aunt, I will be careful now,” Charlotte said with a big smile.“Nonsense, call me mom,” my mom gushed out. And it only made Charlotte smile brighter.It was comforting to see her smiling now, rather than shed those tears that broke my heart.Suddenly, Valerie’s crying face flashed through my mind. Her pouty pink lips, trembling from holding back tears that dripped down those soft cheeks. A strange feeling overtook my body at the memory and left a bitter taste in my mouth, but I immediately pushed it down.She tried to hurt Charlotte and my unborn children as well. That’s unforgiveable!“Baby, baby, are you okay?” Charlotte gently tapped me. I blinked in surprise. “Yea

VALERIE’S POV “Ma’am?” Rob, my assistant, called out for the third time since we arrived at the building for the signing. We are currently in the underground parking lot kept specially for VVIPs. It's been almost 30 minutes and I still couldn’t find it in me to get down from the car. Trust me, this was not the first time I had to come for a partnership signing, but this was the first time I would be seeing Hudson after our divorce. If I said I wasn’t tense about it, I would be lying. It’s been 5 years already, but it still seemed like yesterday. The memories of him and his family are still fresh on my mind. And especially today, it felt more like an open wound. Liam had repeatedly offered to come on my behalf, to save me the heartache, but I refused. This was my fight. After my experience with them, I fought constantly to be who I am today, building up my walls and confidence that they had trampled upon so ruthlessly. And I most definitely cannot let one meeting shatte

VALERIE'S POV“Mommy!” “Oh no,” I moaned, paused mid-air, and gritting my teeth at my poor attempt to tiptoe to my room.“I can see you mummy, there’s no need to hide” Mason said in his ‘as a matter of fact’ tone.I sighed ‘Okay Okay, you got me.” I said with a soft smile and raised my hands in defeat. But he didn’t seem phased at all, he just stared at me with a bored expression.I had to change tactics then. “Oh, baby, you shouldn’t be up, look at the time. Gosh!” I exclaimed.“Mommy you deceived us!” Miley voice rang out from the kitchen. “Me?” I replied with fake disbelief.Almost immediately sounds of her little flip flops filled the air as she ran to the living room, with an …ice cream coated hair??“Whoa! What’s with your hair?” I exclaimed and touched her hair; it was indeed ice cream.I looked at her tiny frowning face for explanation, but she just huffed and turned to the side. “Little Miss dramatic huh?” I teased as a slight chuckle left my lips.Just then, I heard tiny fe

HUDSON’S POV “James?” “James!” I roared, glaring daggers at anyone that dared gave me side glances. “Yes, boss” he replied and immediately appeared at my right-hand side. “I need every single detail about Valerie and all her movements from the last 5 years!” “Yes boss, I completely understand” he replied hastily. “And this time, do it right!” I barked and tugged the keys of my black Bentley out of his hands. With anger surging inside of me, I just turned on the car and sped off, away from the building for the event. Most important guests were gone already and that bloody twat was the very first to leave!The nerves! Leaving me behind to the guests like I was some errand boy of hers! She even dared to threaten me. Me! "Can you believe it?" I chuckled darkly, my annoyance increasing. After 5 years of her disappearing on me, she shows up and does this? Pretending like I never existed? That gold digging bitch! She had clearly found a new rich man to prey on, one that even allow

HUDSON'S POVName: Valerie Ann Marie Hernandez Status: CEO and sole heir of De Hernandez Dreamz Marital status: Single Legal Guardian: Henry Hernandez Relationship: Grandfather and chairman of De Hernandez Dreamz Parents; Dead"Valerie, you bloody liar!" I growled, roughly running my hands through my hair. It's been complete 20 minutes since I found out that Valerie was indeed a member of the Hernandez family.The very family that owned and ran the biggest corporation centered on furniture designing and decor.You know what's worse? She was not even just a mere family member but the sole heir! The fucking CEO!This had got to be some sort of trick right? but James sources were always legit. And I for one, had always thought Liam Hernandez was the CEO of De Hernandez Dreamz. He WAS the CEO, but that was only until 5 years ago. It was clearly stated in the file.The same 5 years ago that Valerie signed the damned divorce papers and walked out on me.So, that was the reason she di

HUDSON’S POVAfter recovering from my initial shock, I glared at my phone and my voice dropped dangerously low. “Look here you conniving little cheat, I have your life in my hands. So, it will do you well to speak to me nicely! While you still can that is,” I growled out.The line became silent, good. At least she knows when to listen. Before I could take another breath, a loud crackling laughter flowed through my phone speakers. What? Is she... laughing? This is funny to her?"Oh, my, you..." she started, her words dissolving into uncontrollable laughter. The sound of her crackling giggles filled the air, taunting me with each passing moment. My face darkened into a tight scowl, the more she laughed. My brow furrowed into the most intense frown I'd worn in years as I stood stiff, my hands clenched into fists at my sides, listening to her struggle to compose herself between gaps of laughter. "My goodness!... That was... hilarious Hudson, were you trying to scare me or something?” Sh

“But it was what pushed me.” Gregory insisted. “That was the genesis of all my wrong decisions! I took your heritage, gambled and lost it! I tried to get them back and got into more debt! Tried some more and got into more and more debts! Which was why when Drake approached me, I took his bait! Without even thinking! Why?! Because I didn’t want to ruin things between us, Amelia. I didn’t want to totally lose relevance in my father’s eyes and most definitely not in my son’s eyes! Hudson was all I had left. I couldn’t bear to become a disappointment to him, so I did it!”“I settled all my debts and everything but what I didn’t realize was that Drake wouldn’t take back money as payment. Instead, he wanted me to marry his daughter-Charlotte. That was where I met her. I couldn’t of course, I had a wife and a son almost Charlotte’s age, how could I do such a thing?!”“Good heavens!” Grandpa exclaimed, banging the arm of his chair as he stood up abruptly. Fury burning within him as he paced a

CHAPTER 247“Drake,” Hudson repeated, his deep voice vibrating in the air as he spoke for the very first time. “How do you know, Drake?”Gregory’s eyes widened in surprise at that question. Realizing what was supposed to be his quiet thought had been voiced out instead, even reaching the others of the others in the living room!Everyone’s eyes were on him. Zooming in on him and filling him with dread as he swallowed, hard. “You just mentioned Drake,” Hudson repeated, this time his voice even more firm. “How do you know him? Why did you mention him and what does he have to do with this recording?”“I- err-I-” Gregory stammered,“Answer me!” Hudson blasted. His sudden anger startling everyone, but it was to be expected. He hadn’t confronted Gregory ever since everything that happened at the hospital. His anger was justified. But even at that, Amelia couldn’t help but cut in.“But who is this, Drake?” She questioned with confusion, seemingly feeling whoever that was could not possibly be

And even until this moment!“Throw it out!” Amelia yelled at a confused maid.“Keep it down! I said keep it down!” Gregory instructed, countering Amelia’s order. Leaving the maid even more confused and slightly worried for her own safety as she looked between the couple.Or should I say, ex-couple.“Amelia, please. Let’s talk like grown adults! We don’t need to be like this, please” Gregory pleaded, repeating the words he had been saying since yesterday. But those very words seemed to drive Amelia even more mad with anger! So much that she charged at the maid, grabbing the set of clothes in her hands and threw them downstairs by herself.“I said, GET HIS FUCKING B

VALERIE’S POV“I did it all for you, Huddie!”“It was all for you. Because I loved you and still do!” Charlotte cried out, her voice raw with emotion like she wasn’t the one spewing shit just a moment ago. Gosh! This woman… I would never understand her, never!“I love you, Huddie. Let’s start all over, please” She pleaded, sniffling back her tears as she moved to his direction. But instead, all she got was cold shoulder from Hudson as he walked right past her, like she was nothing in his eyes. “The only person I need to start all with is my woman who I abandoned because of how foolish I was. Next to her, you’re simply insignificant and that’s all you will ever be!”Woah‘Look at that nonchalance people! That man is so done with her ass!’And he doesn’t know the full story yet! Hahaha!“Amelia?”“Amelia! Sweetheart please, let’s talk. I can totally explain! I can-“GET. YOUR. HANDS. OFF ME!” Amelia declared; her eyes murderous as they spat fire at Gregory.

HUDSON’S POV“Wah…what is she talking about?”“What is she talking about, Gregory?!” Mom’s voice bounced off in the air, further sinking in Charlotte’s words into my mind.“I don’t-i-Amelia listen” Dad tried to explain, gently taking mom’s hands. “I have no idea what she is-“You have no idea what I’m saying?” Charlotte cut in; her tone irritated. “You have no idea about the fact that we’ve been meeting up at hotels behind her back?! That you’ve been sleeping with me? or that Abrille is actually your daughter and not my Huddie’s?! What exactly is confusing you, Gregory? Or are you just trying to make me look stupid?!”“What?!” Mom exclaimed; her expression crowned with the exact same feeling of disbelief that I felt watching this entire show!A show! That’s what’s happening here!A fucking show for the premieres!“You…”“You…Greg… what?!” Mom shrilled again, disgust filling her bones as she immediately moved out of dad’s hold. “What th- you…Haha!

Valerie that stood by the side blinked back her tears a few times, her eyes feeling heavy from watching the actual videos and hearing grandpa silently sob in front of the TV screen. Even Amelia seemed shaken by it all. Most of those videos… she vividly remembered fighting against those accusations on Charlotte. She remembered even throwing a few people out of the house simply because she believed they were just ganging up against Charlotte when they knew she had no one and could barely stand up for herself as a result of her weak body.Little did she know… little did she know!You would think it was all over after going through so many videos, watching so many anger provoking scenes… but Hudson went further, wanting to see it all for himself! Wanting to see for himself the continuous wicked sneer Charlotte had on her face in every single scene!As though to convince himself that there was no redemption for her, she wasn’t confused when all these happened. They were all deliberate and

THIRD PERSON POV“Abrille is your daughter, Charlotte!” Valerie added, taking Amelia’s cue. “Why do you want to waste her life the same way you wasted her sibling 5 years ago?!”“What? 5-5 years ago?” Gregory stuttered, his interest for the conversation now growing. “What is she talking about?”“Everyone here knows how Charlotte lost that baby, Valerie!” Amelia spat angrily, “You know this as well, are you trying to make the situation here worse intentionally?”Valerie smirked, putting down he rout stretched arm as she faced Amelia. “Oh? You haven’t heard?” she mocked, her tone further intensifying Charlotte’ tension.“Heard what?” Charlotte spat, eyeing Valerie with distain.“Well, I heard that someone saw how Charlotte fell that day and lost the baby!” Valerie announced loudly, catching everyone’s interest. “The person that saw her said something really striking you know, that Charlotte didn’t even bleed that day and she-“HEY!” Charlotte roared, startling everyone and most especiall

THIRD PERSON POV“Mr. Rodriguiez’s blood is not a match!” The doctor’s voice sounded through the air and with it came the rapt attention of everyone present. Including the very angry Hudson that wouldn’t look away from Charlotte a moment ago. His child’s life was way more important than the foolish woman that was her mother.Everyone was tensed alright, but no one had their heart rate increasing by a tempo after the doctor’ words. Only Charlotte’s did. And with more words from the doctor, so did her heart rate tripled. Leaving sweaty and uncomfortable as she stood there.“I’m afraid we need the mother to test for the transfusion as well,” the doctor continued, as he turned to face Valerie. “Can we begin, ma’am?”At his suggestive words, Valerie became dumbfounded. Her eyes wide in surprise that the doctor thought she was Abrille’s mother, while she was not. “Oh no, doctor! I-I’m not her mother” she rushed to explain, much to Charlotte’s annoyance and Hudson’s embarrassment. Never did h

HUDSON’S POV“Val?”“Daddy!” Mason called out, his excited voice echoing in the hallway as he rushed to me. My arms wrapping around him, relived to finally see them all okay but still equally worried though. “Hey, little man” I mumbled, perking his head as I did the same for the others the moment I reached them. Instantly pulling Valerie into my arms for a hug, as her flowery fragrance filling my nostrils and giving me a much-needed calmness to my mind. Otherwise, I knew I was going to go crazy.“What happened? What happened to Aby?” I asked, pulling back from her embrace as I searched for answers. But right then, my eyes caught sight of Grandpa. “Grandpa? How are you-“I called them,” Val explained, “Right after I got off the phone with you the first time, Grandpa called so I told him where we were and he came with everyone”My eyes followed her hand gesture and sure enough, both my dad and mom were sat right beside Grandpa and I hadn’t even noticed them. “Son, we heard what happened
