All Chapters of Ex-wife Returns : Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

Nelly paced around her room, her nerves on edge. She had received a tip earlier that day that Leah would be having a playdate, which seemed like the perfect opportunity for her plan. She had set her boys up, giving them clear instructions to ensure the kidnap was a success. But as night fell, there was still no word from them. The anxiety was eating her alive.Finally, her phone rang. She answered it quickly, her voice sharp. “Well? Did you get her?”There was a pause on the other end, and then a hesitant voice replied, “No, ma’am. We couldn’t find Leah. She wasn’t there.”Nelly’s face twisted with rage. “What do you mean she wasn’t there? I had everything planned perfectly!”“We waited, but there was no sign of her. We checked the house and the surrounding area, but she never came out,” the voice explained, trying to stay calm.Nelly’s fury exploded. She screamed into the phone, “You idiots! How could you mess this up? I gave you one simple task!”The voice on the other end stammered

I woke up feeling uneasy. The sun was barely peeking through the curtains, but I knew I had a long day ahead. I glanced at my phone, hoping to see a missed call or a message from Martins, but there was nothing. I sighed and tried calling him again, but it went straight to voicemail. My heart sank.After getting Leah ready for school and dropping her off, I decided to drive to Martins' house. I needed to see him, to understand why he was avoiding me. When I arrived, his workers told me he wasn't home."Do you know where he might be?" I asked, trying to hide my frustration."I'm sorry, ma'am. We haven't seen him since yesterday," one of them replied.Feeling defeated, I drove to his office. Maybe he was swamped with work and just needed some time. But when I called his office, they told me he wasn't there either. My mind raced with worry and confusion.I needed to talk to someone, so I headed to Mandy's boutique. Mandy was always a voice of reason and comfort. As soon as I walked in, sh

Madam Katie had been worried about Martins for days. She knew he was hiding in his penthouse, avoiding everyone, including Carina. The situation couldn’t go on any longer. She needed answers and she needed to set things straight.She drove to his penthouse, her mind racing with thoughts. When she arrived, she didn’t bother knocking. She barged in, her determination unwavering.Inside, the smell of alcohol was overwhelming. Martins sat on the couch, a bottle of whiskey in his hand. His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked utterly defeated.“Martins!” Madam Katie yelled, her voice filled with anger and concern. “Why haven’t you been taking my calls? Or Carina’s calls?”Martins stared at the floor, saying nothing. His silence only fueled her frustration.“Answer me!” she demanded. “Why are you avoiding Carina?”Still, he remained silent. Madam Katie’s patience snapped. She marched over to him, her eyes blazing with fury.“When did you get this weak, Martins?” she shouted. “What happened t

The man I had loved and trusted had been hiding such a terrible secret, and I felt lost, betrayed, and utterly broken. The tears wouldn't stop, and I could hardly see where I was going. My legs felt heavy, and each step seemed to take all the energy I had left.Just outside, I saw Luke waiting by his car. He noticed my distress and walked over, offering to give me a ride home. I didn't have the strength to argue or refuse, so I nodded and got into his car.Luke drove in silence at first, but I could feel his eyes on me. I tried my best to hold back the tears, but they kept flowing. My chest felt tight, and my hands trembled."Carina," Luke started, his voice soft but with a hint of something else, "I'm sorry you're going through this. Martins... he's always been a problem."I didn't respond, staring out of the window, letting the tears fall freely. Luke took my silence as a cue to continue."You know, Martins has always been shady. He has a history of hurting people. I remember heari

I walked into the boardroom, my stomach a knot of anxiety. The air was thick with tension. As I took my seat at the head of the table, I could feel the weight of everyone's eyes on me. The board of directors sat, grim-faced, waiting to unleash their fury."Carina, do you realize the magnitude of this disaster?" Mr. Thompson, the head of the board, began. His voice was harsh, his eyes burning with anger.I took a deep breath, trying to steady my nerves. "I understand the situation is dire, Mr. Thompson. We were blindsided by this leak of information,and I'm doing everything I can to find out who’s responsible."Ms. Jacobs, another director, leaned forward, her expression cold. "Blindsided? This was a blank failure of leadership. You were supposed to ensure the security of our plans. Instead, you let them slip right into the hands of our competitors."I felt my cheeks flush with a mix of embarrassment and anger. "Security measures were in place, Ms. Jacobs. Whoever did this knew how to
