All Chapters of Ex-Wife's Return to the Mafia Lord: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Celine’s PovPlaying with little Henry at the park was a way I employed to escape the tense feeling and the atmosphere of futile efforts.After realizing that Aaron Lincoln was my dad's lawyer and the one in charge of the case, I put in all the effort I could to assist him, doing the little we could to sabotage and overturn the verdict. But the more we dug into the case, the more complex it became. Williams had been involved in so much fraud, and fighting the case only uncovered other hidden aspects of his dealings.There were things I never knew about him until now—certain dealings that were so messy, I couldn’t have imagined them. At first, I saw him as a ruthless, stern billionaire who merely possessed a domineering character that intimidated everyone around him. They all seemed to become subjects before him. Little did I know there was more behind it. To think that I once vowed to recover all his wealth is something I slightly regret. But still, I have to fight and forge ahead. He

HenryCeline’s povJust when we were about to leave the park, I noticed a group of guys entering. They looked cool but rude in their demeanor, and I doubted if they were also there to catch a glimpse of nature's beauty.“So, psychos also visit the park,” I thought to myself. Such a question was out of place because it was none of my business. When did I start prying into matters that didn’t concern me? I mean, it was an open and free place for anyone to visit, except for the entrance fee, which was high and made it the best park in the city.I hastily packed our things, put Henry back in his carrier, and shoved everything into the bag. I stopped for a deep breath, casting a sideways glare at the couple who had narrowed their eyes at us. We had already spent enough time here, and my meeting with Lincoln was just thirty minutes away. He was the kind of person who valued punctuality and frowned upon lateness. I wasn’t in the mood for his tantrums. The sooner we left, the better.I had re

Why?"Henry, wait for Mummy! Where are you going?" I ran to grasp his hand, but it slowly faded, leaving me in misery as I opened my eyes. My gaze darted around the room, goosebumps visible on my skin as fear gripped my entire being."Where is Henry?" I asked Evelyn, who held me tightly as I regained consciousness. Her expression revealed one thing—Henry wasn't here. I slowly pulled myself up. "Ahh!" The pain in my head, back, and entire body was overwhelming."Where's Henry?" I asked once more, pulling away from her grip, which was almost impossible to break. My body was still weak, but I felt a bit better than before. I knew I was in a hospital—the familiar smell and the white straps everywhere gave it away. How I got there wasn't something I could wrap my head around, nor did it matter. The only thing that made sense, even in my subconscious, was Henry. And I doubted if he was safe. I felt something was wrong. Henry was in danger."Let me go! Let me be!" I screamed at Evelyn as she

Hope Alive Was I meant to remain in shambles, heartbroken? Or was it always meant to turn to sorrow when it seemed like light was surging? My heart and entire body were no longer mine. Why was there a "but" in his last sentence? It's been three long days, but it felt like a thousand. I had wept until there were no more tears left. I had roamed the streets of the city countless times like a deranged person until my strength failed me. All futile, no hope. The worst part was that the cops were on the case, but still, it had been three days without my son. The inspector only pulled my leg to calm me down, assuring me my son was in their custody, but those were mere words. Only Aaron read between the lines as he glared intensely at me. I kept blaming myself subconsciously for even giving that strange guy a listening ear. I should have just ignored him and moved on. Maybe then all of this wouldn’t be happening, and Henry wouldn’t be missing. My body was a mess, and my limbs felt

Shocking RevelationCeline’s povMy heart suddenly quickened, a surge of delight sprang up, and a wide grin spread across my face. I had never been in such a mood for the past three days since Henry was apprehended, and to think the heavens somehow granted my wish swept me off my feet.“My son, my joy,” I gently pulled him from her grip as I kissed his tender face passionately over and over again. It felt like a million times, but it was never enough. I had missed him so much that tears welled up in my eyes as I planted those kisses.He didn't look any different from his usual self, and you would doubt he had even been held captive for the past three days. I narrowed my eyes at the familiar lady. I couldn’t forget her face in a hurry, despite my insane mood and deranged heart. She must have taken good care of him; that much I was certain as I observed him. But the question remained: how did he get into her custody? Was she working with my son's captors? A frown suddenly creased my fa
