Chapter 31-Courage

It was difficult; I thought Ivan would keep me and never allow me to leave, but I was willing to take that risk to see my son. However, he kicked me out, and his men took my vehicle and left us there. I tried to run back, but I collapsed on the road, crying out in pain. Lily stood there watching me; I knew there was nothing she could do anymore. Ivan had blackmailed me, and seeing the look in his eyes made me believe that everything said about him was true. It hurt to know he had taken me away from my life, got me pregnant, and stole my son, only to blackmail me with him. I felt lost and didn’t know what to do. “Clarissa, we need to go before Dominic realizes you’re missing,” Lily called out, but I didn’t feel like leaving; nothing felt right anymore. “How can I continue living knowing my life has been taken from me? My freedom has been stolen, and the things I held dear have been snatched away. How?” I cried, holding my stomach in tears. “I know it’s hard, but what more can we

Chapter 32- Declaration of love

Chasing His Betrayed Ex-Wife/Celess

I was unsure of my actions; I likely wouldn’t have said that if I had known better. However, since I got into trouble and he was aware of it, there was no point in lying. He stared at me in disbelief, and everyone else did too. I turned to see Aiden, Lily's brother, his eyes wide with horror as he looked at her in the same way. I didn’t know much, but I was aware they were pissed off.“What did you do?” Aiden shouted angrily as he pulled Lily toward him and yelled at her.“No, let her be! I was the one who asked her to take me; she didn’t want to. She never did, even when I begged her. But she understood how important it was to me, and she agreed,” I blurted out, and Dominic looked at me with betrayal in his eyes.“That doesn’t mean anything. You betrayed me by meeting him. What point were you trying to prove?” he snapped.“No, I didn’t betray you. I owe you no loyalty. We’ll see about that, and yes, it meant a lot because Ivan had my…” I froze as I realized what I was about to say.

Chapter 33-Challenging Harper

Chasing His Betrayed Ex-Wife/Celess

I noticed him freeze, his eyes locked onto mine, and everyone else's eyes widened. From the corner of my vision, I saw Aiden pulling Lily away by her hand, while the men walked off, presumably to give us some privacy.“What?” he asked, looking confused as he approached me.“I… feel safe with you… I feel like I belong here, like you’re my home. I went there to tell him…” I stammered, suddenly realizing what I was doing.I was about to back the truth with a lie. What if he never forgave me for this? How long could I maintain this deception, knowing it would eventually be revealed?He reached out and lifted my chin. As he gazed into my eyes, I could sense how much it meant to him to hear those words. “I’m sorry I was hard on you. I’m scared of losing you,” he said softly, and I looked at him with deep affection.I was right about one thing: I was falling for him, and there was no denying it. I loved it.“I’m sorry for being so reckless. I’ve been with Ivan for as long as I can remember,

Chapter 35-Murder instinct

Chasing His Betrayed Ex-Wife/Celess

The man’s eyes widened in shock, but he tried to argue. "Ma'am, I—"I cut him off, my gaze boring into him. Whatever he saw there must have convinced him, because he shut his mouth quickly, his horror plain on his face. "This way, ma'am," he muttered.Before he could lead me away, the doctor caught up, panting and red-faced. "Okay, time to go back to your room," he said, sounding far too pleased with himself as if this was some minor misunderstanding that could be easily solved.The man raised a hand to stop him. "Don’t worry, Doctor. I’m taking her home," he said, his tone final. The doctor hesitated, looking between us, but didn’t argue.I followed the mafia man out of the hospital, my bare feet slapping against the cold floor until we reached the garage. He stopped in front of a sleek black car and turned to me, a puzzled look on his face. "Aren’t you going to change?" he asked, gesturing vaguely at my hospital gown.I crossed my arms and glared at him. "No, I’m not. Take me back
