All Chapters of The CEO's Amazing Ex-Wife Is Back!: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

After leaving the table, Luisa hadn’t even gotten past the hallway leading to the washroom when Alden suddenly grabbed her arm and held her back. “Luisa, please let me explain.”Luisa stiffened, then jerked her arm from his hold. “Explain what? You don’t owe me any explanation.”She tried to appear aloof, but she couldn’t keep it up for long before she hissed. “You told Millie to invite us here because of Kris, didn’t you? He made you bring Thalassa here because he was going to be here, didn’t he?”Seeing the need for honesty in her eyes, Alden couldn’t bring himself to lie. He ran his hand through his hair as he admitted, “Yes.”Luisa took a step back. She couldn’t believe she’d been foolish enough to think he’d sent the invite because of her.She knew she was being unreasonable because Alden never told her he was organizing this hangout for her. It was she and Thalassa who had assumed his intentions, so she had no right to feel this way—so betrayed.She felt even more foolish becau

Their eyes locked. For several seconds, they stared at each other—Kris’s eyes filled with all the desperation in the world, while Thalassa’s eyes were filled with... nothing. She hadn’t said a single word since he exposed Karen, and every second of her silence made him feel like he was dying inside, desperate for her to say something—anything. The moment was broken when Luisa suddenly stormed over to Karen. “You stupid bitch!” Two violent slaps landed on Karen’s face, causing her to stumble as Luisa continued to fume. “What kind of woman are you? How could you pay a man to do something like this to another woman? Someone who loved you and considered you her best friend? You’re despicable.” Another slap landed on Karen’s face, followed by another, and another. Karen’s ears were ringing and her head spinning from the pain radiating through her. She felt too overwhelmed to even attempt to hit Luisa back. All she could do was grab onto Kris’s arm and cling to it. “Kris, save me.

“Let go of my sister right this minute!” Zeke’s harsh voice cut off the confession Alden had been about to make as he grabbed Alden’s hand and tore it away from Luisa’s arm. Luisa gasped. “Zeke, what are you doing?” “Keeping this bastard away from you,” Zeke hissed. “Luisa, can’t you see that he can’t be trusted? He deceived all of you because his friend asked him to, just to get Thalassa here.” Alden clenched his jaw, frustrated, but tried to keep his voice calm. “You saw what happened here yourself, Zeke. I did it for a good reason.” “That doesn’t make you any less of a liar and a user,” Zeke scoffed disdainfully. “You still used my sister to get to Thalassa. How do I know you’re not trying to get close to her only because Miller asked you to?” Luisa felt her cheeks warm with embarrassment and quickly clarified, “Zeke, Alden never asked me out. He didn’t even speak to me personally.” Zeke huffed. “Sister, don’t try to defend this man. Please understand that he can’t

“The love birds are finally here!” Aunt Cynthia exclaimed excitedly the moment Kris walked into the house. His family were gathered in the living room, and they all had smiles on their faces, but their smiles dimmed when they noticed the gloomy look on Kris’s face as well as the fact that Karen wasn’t with him. “Kris, where’s Karen?” His aunt questioned. “Nephew, where’s your wife? You two went out to enjoy some quality time together, didn’t you?” His uncle supplied. His daughter, Tessa, was sitting on the floor in front of the nanny playing some Lego. Without answering his aunt and uncle, Kris sank down on the floor beside his daughter. “Hey baby.” He said and pressed his lips to her forehead. She stopped playing temporarily to look at him. “Dada.” The sweet, innocent smile she flashed him made his heart squeeze painfully. He knew the things that happened today were going to be hard on his daughter, but he hoped he was making the right decision. “Kris, why aren’t you

Linda felt her blood pressure rising, unable to believe the turn of events. All the machinations she’d done to get that lowlife out of her son’s life now seemed to be amounting to nothing. The woman obviously had Kris back under her thumb, and she had to do something about it.“What are you trying to say, Kris?” she demanded, the hurt in her voice carefully cajoled. “Are you saying that I also faked the evidence against that woman?”Kris let out a frustrated breath. “Mum, that’s not what I’m saying. I–““Then what are you saying?” Linda cut him off. “The day we caught her with that man in the hotel suite, she accused me of being the one who gave her the fraudulent documents to have them signed. If you’re saying you now believe her, then you’re accusing me of framing her.”She dissolved into tears. “What outrageous crime are you going to accuse me of next simply because Thalassa says so? That I’m the one who sent someone to attack her and her unborn child?”The mention of the unborn ch
