All Chapters of The CEO Ex-Wife's Revenge: Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

Derek unconsciously tried to prolong their stay at the restaurant for as long as possible. In the end, though, he couldn't delay any longer without it seeming weird, so they had to leave and go back home.Ava was already living with him since she had been the one who was taking care of him after the accident, so all her stuff was at his place. Nothing had really changed in their day-to-day life ... except for the fact that they were now man and wife.“How did you manage to convince your parents not to come to the wedding?” He asked her on the drive home.“Oh, we had a small fight because they wanted me to marry someone else. It was easy after that because we were mad at each other.”“Oh. You didn’t want to get married to this person? Why not?”“Heavens, no! I can't stand the thought of him.” Ava exclaimed, laughing a little. Derek had to smile at that.“So have you told them that you got married to someone else then?”“No, not yet. I’ll tell them when we get home.”“Cool, cool,” Derek

“Yes, I indeed am pregnant. Can you believe it? To think that we weren’t even trying to get pregnant, yet here we are. I’m so so happy. I’ve always wanted a baby.” Ava gushed on and on, while Derek remained quiet and let her talk.She was quite the talkative and anytime she was extremely excited about something, she would literally talk the head off of anyone who cared to listen to her.That was what she was doing now. In fact, she had launched into a long excited speech about what gender she thought the baby might be, who she thought the baby was going to look like, and all of that.Her excitement was palpable and Derek found himself smiling indulgently at her. A baby? He could feel happiness stirring up within him at the thought of having a baby, even though they hadn't exactly planned it.“Um, wait! You haven’t said anything since I told you that I am pregnant. Are you not happy about it? I swear I didn’t know I was going to get pregnant. It must have happened the few times we had

Somehow, Ava was not surprised to find herself in this situation. In fact, it felt like on a subconscious level, she had been hoping that Derek would find out that he had a daughter from her this way.He had not yet pieced the puzzle together, but was instead, smiling and looking at her uncertainly, probably wondering why she was acting strangely.Ava willed herself to smile … do something … say something, but all she could manage was to open her mouth and close it several times like a fish out of the water, totally at a loss as to what to say.“Well, fancy meeting you here, Ava. What are you doing here, if I may ask?” Derek asked.“Hello,” Harper said to Derek before her mother could answer the question, choosing that moment to greet him, and he smiled warmly down at her and told her hello in return.“Um, well … I …” Ava stammered, her face flushing. Harper came to the rescue in the next second.“This is my mom. Mom, this is Barry’s Dad. He has many nice cars.” She introduced Derek t

Derek could not stop smiling. Never in his wildest dreams had he imagined that he would suddenly get a daughter out of nowhere, but that was exactly what had happened less than an hour ago, and he was ecstatic about it.What was even better was the fact that his beautiful daughter was birthed by the woman he loved. Yes, he loved Ava, and maybe it was high time he stopped deceiving himself and trying to deny his feelings.There was no point in doing that. He couldn’t wait to start to make up for lost time where Harper was concerned. Also, he couldn’t help but wonder if things would have been different had he known that Ava was pregnant with his baby before she left.Yes, things would have been different, because he wouldn’t just have allowed her to leave with his child. Hell, he wouldn't have divorced her in the first place because it would have meant choosing between her and Denise and there was no way he would have chosen Denise over her.One of the reasons why he had finally decided

He rushed over to her immediately, his heart pounding harder than it had ever pounded in his life.He lifted her head up and checked for a pulse, calling her name over and over as though that was going to make her get up, laugh, and tell him that it was all a prank.He did find a pulse, although it was a very faint one, and when he found it, he sagged with relief, reached for his phone, and called his driver who had dropped him off immediately. “There’s an emergency. Please get the car ready and keep the engine running. We have to get to the hospital as fast as we can.” He told the man, not bothering to listen to his response.It would be much faster for the man to drive them to the hospital than for him to wait for an ambulance to arrive, he reckoned. He was also in no frame of mind to drive right then.Already, he had lifted Ava up in his arms and was headed as fast as he could down the stairs, still dressed in his suit.The driver had the car ready as instructed and was already wa
