All Chapters of The CEO Ex-Wife's Revenge: Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

“I’m afraid you have to prepare yourself for the inevitable this time around, Derek. I'm even surprised that the young lad has managed to fight this illness for this long, but unfortunately, we’re nearing the end. It’s best you and his mother prepare yourselves.” The doctor told Derek, his gaze sympathetic.Apparently, Barry’s condition had taken a turn for the worse after Derek left to go home the previous night. In fact, according to the doctor, if Derek had brought him in an hour or so later than when he did, he may not have made it.“No, no, that isn't possible. That was what you said nearly ten months ago, but he’s still here. You could be wrong this time around as well.” Derek said, shaking his head several times as though that was going to negate what the doctor just said.He knew he was being unreasonable, but he just couldn’t help himself.“I know, but sometimes people get lucky. I’m certain this time around though, and I don’t want you to be caught unawares.” The doctor told

"Um, was it something I did? Is she mad at me or something? I mean, she was happy to see me when I arrived.” Steve asked after a few seconds of uncomfortable silence.“No, of course not. She’s just mad that I didn’t allow her to open the gift you got for her yet. I told her that she’ll only be allowed to open it after she does her homework.” Ava lied. She knew her daughter very well, and she knew that Harper was mad because she had seen Ava kissing Steve.Derek had managed to charm Harper so fast that in the little time that she had known him, she already wanted him to be with Ava so that they could all be one big, happy family and the little girl knew that Steve was in the way of that happening.“Oh, alright. That makes sense. The gift is just a princess dress with a matching bag and shoes.” Steve said, sounding relieved.“Thank you for getting them for her, but you don’t need to do that everytime you come visiting, Steve. You’re spoiling her too much.”“I do the same for my sister’s

Short of removing his arm from Vanessa’s, thus embarrassing her, there was nothing that Derek could do right then about the arm she had entwined with his without hurting her feelings, or even worse, drawing attention.One thing was for certain though, and that was the fact that he had to set the record straight and let Vanessa know that he wasn’t available. His heart belonged to someone else, and it always would.The little voice in his head wasted no time in reminding him that he was only deluding himself. The person he was in love with was in a relationship with another person, yet he was putting his life on hold and pining after her.Nonetheless, delusion or no delusion, the fact remained that he wasn’t ready to get into a relationship with anyone just yet, especially not with his late assistant’s wife whom he saw as nothing but a friend.They all found somewhere to sit, but Derek was distracted throughout the game. Now that Tim’s father had opened his eyes, he could not miss the o

Now that the game had ended, Vanessa and her inlaws went in search of her son so they could celebrate with him and take pictures as well.Derek, on the other hand, decided to wait for them outside since he wasn't a part of their family and he wasn't about to impose himself on them.As he walked outside, he looked around for Ava, but because the crowd had now dispersed and people were now walking about, he could not easily find her in the crowd and he didn't want to continue to search for her like a creep.Feeling disappointed, he walked over to the parking lot with his bodyguard, where they waited for the family to come out. Derek liked this new guy.He wasn’t Jerome, but at least he was a good substitute for Jerome. Jerome was still unconscious and Derek was beginning to despair that he would ever wake up.Nonetheless, he kept clinging to the hope that sooner rather than later, Jerome was going to come out of his coma. Unlike in Derek’s case, the doctors were not sure Jerome was goin

“Alright, everyone. It’s time for me and this lovely lady here to go home. Thank you so much for the love. As you all know, I do not take your love for granted. However, now, I need to get this lovely lady home safely, so I’ll have to say goodbye.” Steve told the small crowd, every inch of him oozing charm and self-confidence. Ava stood nearby, wishing that she hadn’t even invited him to come in the first instance. He always managed to attract a crowd wherever they went, except he went disguised, and even sometimes when he went disguised, people still recognized him and came up to them.Ava knew that it wasn't his fault, but still, she didn’t think she would ever get used to having random people coming up to them all the time and invading their personal space. Also, she was embarrassed that he had kissed her in front of Derek, even though she had nothing to be ashamed of.She couldn’t even bring herself to look at Derek for a while, but when she finally did look at him, his face was
