All Chapters of After Forgetting Me, My CEO Ex-husband Regrets: Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

(Jack)I was sitting in the spot mother had vacated, head in my hands as I tried to come to terms with what had just happened.I was coming back home to talk to mother.After spending last night getting drunk and then puking my guts out in the morning, I decided to take a day off to get over the hangover. However, with nothing else to do, I kept thinking about what Ruby said.If I go to mother and talk to her about how all of this was affecting me, would she give up all of this and let me be with Ruby?I thought about it so much that I made myself believe that this was the only option. Yet, when I reached the mansion, Ruby was already there.“I’m sorry you had to see that,” mother said as she sat beside me.I really didn’t know what to say to her. Yes, Ruby shouldn’t have come here to talk to her alone and by herself, but what choice did mother even give her?I hated having to tell her to leave, but I knew that wasn’t the right moment to talk about all the things that had become messe

(Jack)After talking with mother, I spent some more time at the mansion. Actually, it was because mother wanted me to stay since I had been living at the apartment for more than a week now.According to her, I had lost a substantial amount of weight and had dark circles under my eyes. I had hoped that she would realize that it was because I worried too much and she was the cause of my worries.I had texted Ruby that I would come to visit the house and to wait for me there, but when I went there, Ruby’s Mama opened the door, a weak smile on her features.“She’s not home is she?” I had asked her with a pained smile on my face.She had shaken her head, looking like she wanted to say more but had likely held herself back because Ruby probably told her to do so.Now, sitting in the living room of my empty apartment once again, I tried calling Ruby but there was no reply. All my texts were going unread as well. I had apologized to her for sending her away so harshly, but there was still no

(Lydia)It had been another testing morning and afternoon. I had given my first sets of interviews and most of them went smoothly. I got asked to talk about movies and my inspirations in acting and I was to follow through with well thought out answers.I did my homework on the interviewers as well and realized they asked a familiar set of questions with most actors they interviewed. I’m not going to lie, doing so helped me a lot even though I had to lose a few hours of sleep at night.The busy schedule had kept me thinking about anything or thinking much at all. I preferred it that way because sooner rather than later, my thoughts would make me spiral.I was noticing every single person and how they acted around me then comparing it to Nathan. There wasn’t much of a difference though, but what bugged me was that everyone else treated me uniformly, while with Nathan it felt like we were buddies one moment and then almost strangers the next.This up and down was making me feel confused

(Thomas)If someone told me I would once again be nervous about going to school again I would laugh in their faces but as I stood in front of the mirror, ready to take Mabel and Miles to their preschool, I couldn’t help but feel nervous.Today was parent’s day and I was about to accompany my kids to their school, something I wouldn’t have thought possible a year ago.I wanted to scream and shout from happiness that I felt flowing inside of me.I remembered Lydia’s expression when I told her last night how the kids had asked me to come to their school. At first, I was hesitant because I didn’t want her to feel left out, but I really wanted to share my happiness with someone, so I shared the news.***Lydia was telling me about something funny that occurred during one of her interviews. I could still see that she was bothered by something but as she said, she would tell me when the time was right and I trusted her wholeheartedly.When she fell silent, I took this as my chance.“Hey, Lyd

(Lydia)It was the last day of promotions in New York before I would be going back home for the weekend. I was so glad that I had made the decision to return.It’s not like I was missing anything. It would just be a couple of red carpets and those were not the priority in my life. Josh moaned about the fact that he would have loved to style me for a few red carpets, but I confidently told him that he would have the chance to do that later.I was sitting in the lobby of the hotel when I saw a flash of blonde in my peripheral vision. The figure that had caught my attention was covered from head to toe, even wearing gloves, a hat, and a pair of dark glasses.But I knew the gait. It was a model’s gate and there was only a model with that height and hair that I knew about. I checked my watch to see that there was still time before I had to leave, so I got up from my chair and tried to follow the figure as conspicuously as possible.Clara did not take the elevators, instead she entered the
