All Chapters of His Ex-wife Is An Heiress: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

“So, let’s get this straight,” Melanie’s voice boomed from the video call she was currently having with Amara. “You’re throwing a welcoming party and you want us to fly all the way to Italy?”Amara nodded her head, but didn’t bother taking her gaze off the papers in her hands. They were company documents, the most important ones, as Lorenzo had dimmed them.If she wanted to know everything about their headquarters before taking the seat of CEO, she’d have to be aware of how the company ran. And she was hell bent on learning that.“That’s right,” She spoke. “I’ll arrange for my private jet to pick you up and I’ll even arrange for a place for you to stay and-“ Suddenly realizing that Melanie had gone silent, Amara stopped talking and looked up from the documents in her hand.Melanie sat with her hands crossed and an expression of amusement plastered across her face.“Go on,” She encouraged. “I’m listening.” Her words, especially the way she said them, made Amara conscious of all she had

“Tobias?”Celestine perked up from the couch at the sound of the main door opening and closing.She watched as he walked into the living room, a deep frown marring his face.“Is everything okay?” She stood up from the couch and met him halfway, placing her hands on his shoulders to examine his face. “Did something happen?”“It’s nothing,” Tobias unintentionally brushed off her hand and headed for the bed room.Celestine frowned at the action.What now? She thought. Things had been going perfectly between them. There was no Amara to cause chaos or draw Tobias’s attention, so what was making him act like this?Well one thing was for sure, she couldn’t get answers from standing around.Turning around, she headed towards their shared room. “How was the meeting with Brian?”Brian was the investor Tobias had gone to meet up with last minute. Or at le

“Ah, I see you two already met each other.” Richard said, grinning from ear to ear at how the situation had surprisingly turned out to be In his favor.“Yes, Amara and I, quite close.” Elijah added and Amara looked away, tightening her hold on the wine glass in her hand.Quite closer her ass! If they were as close as he claimed, why did he hide…‘Ah,’ Amara mentally slapped herself. ‘So this was how Melanie felt.’“That’s great.” Richard laughed, tapping Elvis on his shoulder. “See Elvis, I told you they’d make a fine pair.” He turned back to Elijah. “And to think that this young man here was playing hard to get when I first approached him, saying he didn’t have the time for a relationship.”Elvis chuckled. “Ah, the young ones these days, they always have one thing or the other to do, can’t find the time to settle down.”

Edward stared like a dead fish.He couldn’t believe what he was seeing. The CEO who stood on the screen was Amara, the very same person who had quit her job as managing director… The very same person he had treated badly.Oh no. Alarm bells loudly went off in Edward’s mind.Amara was the CEO, making her…the daughter of Elvis Crawford and sister to Lorenzo Crawford.Shit, he had screwed up, big time!Seeing Edward’s face ridden with surprise had to be the best present Amara has received in a long while.She fought hard to stop herself from grinning from ear to ear and ultimately settled for a smirk, one that ticked Edward off, as much as it scared him.“I’ve already given an outline of the meeting and my plans for the company, if you’ll all kindly open the file on your desk and skim through it, you’ll find it there.”One by one, the members of the conference began ope

The drive back home was quiet. Celestine remained silent in fear that if she opened her mouth and spoke, she’d worsen the matter more than it already was.From the corner of her eyes, she could see the wheels on Tobias’s mind turning, perhaps, trying to think of a reason why she had done what she had done.The silence had dragged on virtually half of the ride when Celestine couldn’t take it no more.She spoke.“Toby-“But was interrupted that very second.“Why did you slap her?” He finally asked, turning to meet her with a confused expression. It was clear that he was still trying to figure out Celestine’s actions even if they were measly.“She, she insulted me and down played my feelings for you.” Celestine’s voice was barely above a whisper. “I just couldn’t take it and I…I…” She couldn’t complete the rest of her words, or at least, she made it seem that way.Tobias sighed at her pitiful state. He stood where she was coming from. Having someone down play your love for another wasn’t
