All Chapters of My Ex-Husband is Out of Control: Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

Sophia’s POVThe hospital was quieter than usual today. I held Reese's hand as we walked down the sterile, white hallway toward Dr. Lansing's office. It had only been a few days since they removed my cast, and this follow-up check-up was to ensure everything was healing properly. Reese skipped beside me, her wavy hair bouncing with each step.“Mommy, can I get a chocolate drink after this?” Reese asked, her eyes lighting up as she spotted a vending machine at the end of the hallway.“We'll see, sweetie,” I replied, squeezing her hand gently.Dr. Lansing's check-up was thorough but quick. He reassured me that my arm was healing well and gave me a few exercises to help regain my strength. With a fresh set of instructions and a reminder to schedule another appointment in a few weeks, we were on our way out.As we walked down the now-empty hallway, Reese's attention was caught by the vending machine. She let go of my hand and ran ahead, her small footsteps echoing.“Reese, wait!” I called

Sophia’s POVI stood in Elijah's spacious living room, unable to believe what was taking place. The luxurious surroundings felt oppressive in the midst of the unfolding chaos.Julia’s sobs echoed against the walls, increasing the tension even more. She’d been holding the document that I’d brought with me because I was supposed to leave already. But because of her antics, she dropped it. Elijah and I instinctively bent over to pick it up at the same time. His fingers brushed mine briefly, sending a jolt through me that I barely registered amid the unfolding drama. My heart beat fast, and I felt disoriented for a little while. “I... I can't... I can't do this!” Julia cried out, her voice trembling with distress. “Sophia, get out of here!” She looked at me in horror, and I didn’t know what to make of it. Elijah moved closer, murmuring something to Julia that I couldn't quite catch over her sobs. He quickly took the documents from my hands, signed them in a hurried motion, and handed

Sophia’s POVThe following day, Henry arrived at our Urban Next office right on time, his tall frame silhouetted against the glass doors. I stood up from my desk as he entered, offering him a polite smile.“It's good to see you again, Sophia,” he said, his voice smooth but with an edge that made me uneasy.“Same here, Henry,” I replied, trying to match his cordial tone. Inside, I couldn't shake the suspicion that something about him didn't quite feel right. There was an air of secrecy about him that set my instincts on edge.Henry settled into the chair opposite mine, placing a thick folder on my desk. “I've got an exciting project to discuss with you, as I’m sure Trevis has already mentioned,” he began, opening the folder to reveal a series of detailed blueprints and some rough concept sketches. “My company is developing an upscale residential and commercial hub. It will feature high-end residential units, state-of-the-art office spaces, upscale retail outlets, and recreational faci

Elijah’s POVI walked alongside Julia as we entered the hospital to visit her doctor and physical therapist. She seemed tense, her fingers fidgeting with the strap of her purse. Her injury from the accident was healing, but the emotional toll lingered.“How are you feeling?” I asked, trying to ease the tension.Julia gave a weak smile. “I'll be okay. Just anxious about these tests.”I was glad that she seemed to be in a better mood today. Even throughout the tests and therapy sessions, she appeared to be normal. Maybe she was on her way to fully recovering. “We should visit Grandma Evelyn,” she even said afterwards. “Are you sure you don’t want to go home yet and rest?” I asked her. She shook her head. “No, I want to check on Grandma Evelyn. She ought to wake up soon from her coma.” She began to look distressed, which also worried me. It’s been a long time that Evelyn hasn’t woken up since her accident at the construction site. We made our way to the familiar hallway where Evelyn

Sophia’s POVI couldn’t help but gasp. The sound seemed to echo in my head, louder than it really was. Morgana’s eyes locked onto mine. Her initial surprise mirrored my own, but before either of us could react, the man spoke.“Darling, I think we can order something like this for our daughter’s 19th birthday. She’ll love this. Or we can have the party in this restaurant. What do you think?”The words made my heart thump harder and faster. Elijah’s stepmother is having an affair, and she has a daughter with this man!I saw Morgana’s eyes narrow, her expression shifting rapidly from shock to guilt, then to something more sinister. Anger flickered across her face, a menacing glint in her eyes. I felt rooted to the spot, unable to move or speak.Morgana stood up slowly, her movements deliberate, and faced me. The room seemed to close in around us, the chatter of other diners fading into a distant hum. I could feel my pulse quicken, my mind racing to process what I had just witnessed.“Sop
