All Chapters of The CEO Ex-Wife's Revenge: Chapter 201 - Chapter 210

She immediately felt guilty for thinking this way, because there was no reason why she should feel that way. Steve had been nothing short of nice to her … a bit overbearing, maybe, but he definitely did not deserve to be thought of as a nuisance or a subject that ruined the mood.“Yes, he calls me every day. He’s actually arriving later tonight, which is a surprise because he originally told me that he would come back in two weeks.” She replied to Derek’s question.Derek wasn’t surprised. Steve was obviously rushing to come back home so that he could sweet-talk Ava into ignoring whatever it was that he was sure Derek was going to tell her.“I ran into him on my trip,” Derek said.“Ah, yes. He informed me about it that same night. Apparently, he and some members of the crew flew in to celebrate a birthday party.” Ava explained. She did not sound particularly worried or suspicious.“Ava, I want to ask you a serious question.”“Sure, what is it?”“Now, I don’t want you to see me as a med

“You won't guess what happened some days ago,” Amanda said to Denise, smiling secretively as she waited for the other woman to guess, but Denise wasn’t in the mood for guessing games.“What is it? I’ve got a headache, and as you well know, I'm not really good at playing guessing games.”“Well, well, well, someone’s in a shitty mood today. What's it with you and the scowling and grumpiness that you’ve been doing all day?” Amanda asked, not sounding particularly offended. In fact, she was in a very good mood.Money always put her in a good mood, and a few days back, she had received money … lots of it, from her dumb brother, so yeah, she was as happy as a kid in a candy store … at least for now.“Well, if you must know, I'm not happy at all. Derek has blocked my access to the account he gave me, from which I used to be able to withdraw at any time. I mean, I still had access to that account even after he kicked me out of his house, but now, I can't access it all of a sudden. How on eart

Steve was avoiding Ava, and she had a good suspicion as to why this was so. He no doubt knew that Derek had told her about his escapades and he probably thought that she was mad at him and was waiting her out until he felt that she was no longer angry.She wasn’t mad at him, though. She was just done with him and she had realized that the longer she waited for evidence of his cheating before breaking up with him, the longer she was going to be stuck with him and that wasn't something she wanted.Besides, what if he decided to turn a new leaf and change his ways so that she wouldn't end things with him? It was highly unlikely, but still. Each time she requested to see him so they could talk because she didn’t want to break up with him over the phone, he gave excuses as to why they could not see yet.On the day he finally came to see her in the house, he arrived with a truckload of gifts for her and Harper and acted as though everything was perfect, and then as soon as she mentioned the

Ava was not surprised when Steve pulled up in front of her house less than thirty minutes after she got home from Helen's place. She was already outside the house because she went to throw out the garbage, otherwise, she wouldn’t have opened the door, and she would have ignored him until he left.He parked his car, and hurried down from it with his head bent low and his face cap covering his face to avoid recognition, even though the streets were deserted as it was late.Then he came towards her quickly, and grabbed her hands, before fixing her with the most earnest expression that he could muster.“Ava, I know how you must feel, and I can't tell you how deeply sorry I truly am. I only hope you can forgive me and we can get past this.” He told her.“What are you doing here?” Ava asked harshly, dragging away her hand from his savagely.“I came to apologize, of course. I’m sorry for hurting you, but I swear it was a one-time thing, and I don’t know what came over me. It won't happen aga

Rage was too mild a word to describe the emotion that Derek was feeling as he took Ava in his arms and listened to her sob while he tried his best to comfort her.The thought of Steve laying his filthy hands on Ava was enough to make Derek want to break every single bone in his body and listen to him squeal in pain without showing him mercy.He had known all along that Steve hadn't and couldn't, or wouldn't change his horrid behavior. A leopard couldn’t change its spots, after all.Derek had failed Victoria, but he wasn’t about to do the same with Ava. He wasn’t about to let Steve get away with hitting Ava, even if he and Ava were no longer an item, as Ava told Derek. Thankfully, Ava wasn’t like Victoria, in the sense that she wasn't going to cover for Steve and continue to take his abuse silently while refusing every form of help.“I’m really sorry. I don’t know why I’m crying. You did try to warn me, after all.” Ava apologized, raising her head and wiping at her eyes. She was look
