Todos os capítulos de Chasing His Betrayed Ex-Wife: Capítulo 21 - Capítulo 30

Third person POV Ivan was seething with rage, his plans shattered the moment the truth emerged. He despised that Dominic always seemed to be one step ahead, and it infuriated him. He was on the verge of marrying a woman he had desired for years, only to have her reject him for Dominic, Eve, now known as Clarissa. This was his golden chance to bring Dominic down, especially after he had taken his wife a year ago. Clarissa had no recollection of that time, leaving her mind open for Ivan to manipulate in his favor.Since her arrival in Italy, he had refused to leave, hiding with his men and biding his time for the perfect moment to strike against the Italian mafia. Ivan had grown up under the shadow of the mafia, with Dominic as his brother, but his greed consumed him. When his uncle offered him a chance to control the Russian mafia, he betrayed the guidance he had received, driven by a desire for revenge that only fueled his animosity toward Dominic.“What’s the update?” Ivan demanded

The hours slipped away, and I found myself retreating to my room, tears streaming down my face. What kind of life had I cherished before everything fell apart? I pondered this while standing in the shower, lost in thought, when suddenly there was a knock at the door. Wrapping a towel around myself, I made my way to the door and opened it to find a maid waiting, her gaze fixed on me. “I apologize for the interruption, but the Don has requested your presence at dinner in twenty minutes,” she said gently. “Alright, I’ll be there,” I replied, closing the door behind me and exhaling deeply. The men had delivered my clothes a few hours earlier, and I felt a wave of gratitude for the outfit I had chosen to wear during my stay here.I quickly slipped into a comfortable pair of jeans and a simple white top, the kind of attire that feels just right. As I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror, I pulled my hair back into a loose ponytail. Stepping out of my room, I noticed the hallway wa

I didn’t know if I was to be angry or sad. I could see that not every one wanted me here and Vincent had expressed his anger toward that.But he was bested by Dominic, I didn’t know much but I could tell that the two of them didn’t get along after that conversation, I observe the way everyone sat still with fear as they watched the interaction without anyone saying a word to opppsed any of them.Then I knew, maybe only vincent had trooper to oppose his claim, I didn’t know why to think of him after all I had just met him a few minutes ago, but I knew the was something dangerous about him and I knew I would never eve go so close to him.I could still see the anger in Dominic eyes as Everyone ate their food and he sat ther drinking his wine, the was still tension in the air as everyone ate without a word or maybe they were scared or say any thing after what had happened between Dominic and Vincent.In a few minutes, Dominic had angrily stormed out of the dining, followed by vincent and

The day went by as I spent it exploring the collection with Dominic. I never realized I could paint, and when I attempted to use a brush, I could only manage half of what I used to accomplish.The night was lovely, and Dominic stayed by my side as we laughed and discussed everything that made sense while watching a movie.He agreed to take things slow with me, which I truly appreciated, and I eventually drifted off to sleep in his arms. By morning, I woke up in my bed, and just as my feet touched the ground, there was a knock on my door.I groaned and fell back onto the bed, wondering who it could be.“Come in,” I called out, and the door opened. I expected to see a servant, but instead, it was Harper. She entered with a bright smile, which immediately made me uneasy.“Harper... it’s nice to see you,” I said through clenched teeth, trying to maintain a pleasant expression.“Oh, did I wake you? I’m so sorry if I did,” she said as she approached the bed. I stood up to receive her embra

As I sat in the car, I watched Lily’s hands gripping the steering wheel so tightly that her knuckles were turning white. Her fingers trembled, and the way her breaths came short and uneven was enough to show how scared she was. I knew she didn’t like that we were going to see Dominic, but she trusted me and I appreciated that. I reached over and placed my hand on hers, feeling the tremor through her skin.“You don’t have to worry, Lily,” I whispered, trying to calm her down. “You’ll be safe. I’ll be fine. I just… I just have to find out the truth about everything.” I comforted her.She turned her head slightly, glancing at me, her eyes wide and glassy. Tears welled up in her eyes, and before I could blink, one slipped down my cheek. I hadn’t even realized I was crying.“I don’t know,” she whispered, her voice shaky. “This is scary. I know you don’t trust Ivan. It’s not too late to turn back. You don’t have to do this, we can find out the truth another way” she begged me.I shook my
