All Chapters of No Longer Yours, Ex Husband: Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

[Caden]My flight is delayed again, and I end up sitting at the bar. A drink in my hand, a million thoughts in my head. Out of the corner of my eye, I notice someone taking the stool next to me, but I barely turn or acknowledge them. I just want to be left alone.After what Dr. Kaito said about my unborn child, I can’t stop wondering what to do next. Convincing Vivienne to give up the baby is out of the question. She already thinks the worst of me, and no matter what I say, she won’t listen.But isn’t that what I’ve always been afraid of?It’s not that I don’t want a child—who the hell wouldn’t? The problem is this damned treatment I’ve been going through. I never found the courage to tell Vivienne about my… issue. I knew she would have understood, but she always saw me as this perfect man. I couldn’t shatter that image. I never wanted to be anything but perfect—not for anyone but myself, and for her. If she knew how broken I really was, how my own family abandoned me because they con

[Vivienne]I wake up in the middle of night, feeling thirsty.I turn on the lamp and grab the bottle, hoping to pour myself some water.Only to find the bottle is empty.Of course, it is. I have been so thirsty recently, gulping down water as if not an entire waterfall could satisfy me.I sigh and get out of bed, heading out of my bedroom.I could have called one of the staff to bring me another bottle of water, but one look at the clock made me reluctant. It’s half past two. Not the time to disturb someone, especially when I can do that myself.I take the stairs and enter the kitchen. And as I do, my stomach grumbles as if I haven’t eaten anything for ages.God, this pregnancy. It’s turning me into an animal. I have no control over my diet, and I definitely have no control ov

Tears burn my eyes as I hear Mr. Parker’s words.But he’s not wrong. I don’t have to be alone in this. I don’t have to keep my troubles to myself, especially now that I have people who genuinely care.Of course, my family was always there, and I was the one who distanced myself from them in the first place. But still, I can’t make the same mistake again.I remember that one time when I fractured my ankle after twisting my foot on the stairs. I was all alone in the hospital, and at home too. No one came to see me. Caden was off on his business trips, and his family never cared enough to even ask if I was alive or dead. I spent the entire week by myself, surrounded only by maids. When Caden finally returned home and learned about my fall, all he did was ask how I was doing and make some extra arrangements to oversee my health. Nothing more. We didn’t even sleep in the same room.I mean, I knew he was quiet and mostly kept to himself from the start, but he wasn’t exactly dumb, was he? Co

[Caden]“How much longer?” I ask, irritated.It’s been two hours since I arrived at the restaurant where Alexander arranged the meeting. Finally, I would see the woman who hasn’t stopped stalking me ever since she learned of my accomplishments. The same woman who still has the nerve to call herself my mother.Mother. Huh. Does she even know what that word means? Does she know anything at all?I glance around the restaurant one more time and sigh in utter displeasure. Alexander’s men are everywhere, stationed in every corner of the building, yet there’s no sign of him—or her.I prepare to leave, but a hand on my shoulder forces me back into my seat.I glare up at the man, who only grins. “They’re here.”I look forward, and there they are. The two people I despise the most, walking closer and closer, making me want to get up and leave even faster.I try not to care about the woman who enters the room as if she owns it. Head held high, hands clasped in front of her, holding some sort of

[Vivienne]“What did she do this time?” Theo asks, before Harvey and I can even wrap around what Rosita just blurted out.Rosita rushes in, looking really troubled. “Guys, I don’t know what’s going on. But she just posted this video a few minutes ago and the media is already giving it the blind coverage.”Harvey waves a hand in the air. “What can she possibly say now to cause such havoc?”Rosita avoids looking at him. “Uh. Well, she said something for sure, and now it’s all over the internet.”The suspense is killing me and I was the one who was supposed to be calm. I shake my head. “Just show me already.”Rosita hands over the phone and I tap on the screen. A video starts playing.On the screen, Sasha appears utterly devastated, her eyes red and swollen as though she’s been crying for hours. Her voice trembles with every word.“I—I am Sasha Clarkson, daughter of Albert Clarkson. I’m here to… to beg the Richardson family for forgiveness.” She takes a shaky breath, barely able to speak
