All Chapters of The Rejected Ex-wife: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

June sat in the hospital with Rafael all through the seven-hour surgery.Things were not looking up and she was headed to her breaking point. Why couldn’t everything just work out to plan? Why did she have to go through all of this in one lifetime?The doctor finally came out and June rushed to him. “How is she? How is my mother?!” She cried, eyes hopeless as she awaited a response. Rafael stood by her, ready to do anything to alleviate the pain his wife was going through. There was a dark cloud as they awaited the news from the doctor.“Fortunately, the surgery was successful. However, she needs to wake up for further assessment.” June let out a sigh of relief at the doctor’s words. She almost cried at the joy that flooded her body. She couldn’t imagine becoming an orphan when she finally sorted things out with her mother. Indeed, you only know the value of what you have when it’s been lost, or in this case, almost lost. “Thank you! Thank you so much.” June said with a grateful he

Rafael and June jolted apart at the sound of the front door opening. “What is going on here?” Beatrice asked, looking distastefully at June who tried to get decent.Clarence walked into the scene and one look at Rafael and June, she knew her work was cut out for her. “Rafael!” She managed a smile and strutted towards Rafael. Before June could realise what was happening, Clarence indulged Rafael in a tight embrace. What’s worse, Rafael returned the gesture. The green monster woke up.“How have you been?” Clarence said with a smile as they broke apart. “It’s been so long. You look good.” Rafael wore a small smile. “You never told me you were in the country.” “You never asked.” She said in a chirpy tone and June suddenly felt out of place with their easy conversation. “You stopped returning my calls too.” She added in an accusatory tone. “I am a busy man,” Rafael said like it solved everything. Beatrice couldn’t restrain herself. “You didn’t go to the office today.”“And?” “I just

The government invited the three companies picked for the South City Resort project for lunch. They were briefed on the nature of the selection by the representative who spoke after the meal. “The three companies represented here have passed the preliminary stage of the selection. A direct result of some previous works that displayed exceptional talent.” “However, the president has highlighted the need to make the resort soulful, rich in culture, and the peak of tourist attractions in the city. You have been chosen to make some design models for the prestigious South City Resort.”“One of the three designs would be picked and displayed on the national day where the project would be awarded to the winner. Before that day, you are expected to turn in the designs for vetting by the president. Accept my congratulations.”The lunch came to an end, and soon, June was walking out of the place with Lucy. On getting to the car park, they were double-crossed by a black Prado Jeep that seemed

Clarence felt like she’d been slapped. Her smile turned into a frown. “Have you not been trained properly?” She seethed. Luis perked his brow at the woman who came in and had the guts to speak carelessly. He was a second away from lashing out when June stepped into the house, dragging some grocery bags along with her. He immediately turned docile as he cried to June. “Mother! This woman has come to harass me in my home!” June stopped in her tracks at the voice of her baby boy. The upset look on Clarence’s face hadn’t eased up. It seemed to tighten upon sighting June. With Rafael nowhere around, she didn’t need to pretend. “Is this how you raised my sister’s child?” She asked sternly. June smiled at the disrespect in her tone. She turned to Luis. “Oh dear, have you greeted Auntie? Come on, greet her properly.” She urged. Luis displayed his disposition towards Clarence but greeted her nonetheless. “Hello.” Clarence wasn’t satisfied, but she nodded in response. When she took over

“What did she just say, Colton?!” April raged as she got up from the floor. “What did she mean by congratulations on selling the company?! Did you lie to her? Did you screw her for money?!” Colton winced at the tone of her voice. “If only you can keep your scrawny voice down for one second, then I could-”April delivered a powerful slap before he could finish his words. Colton couldn’t believe it. He watched her with wide eyes as she vented her anger with words.“My entire life’s work! I gave you a part in the life I built for myself and this is how you pay me?” April’s breath rate increased and she felt her blood boil. “Who is that woman? Who is that wench you slept with? Open that cheating mouth of yours and speak!”Colton was baffled. He cornered her by the side of the room with menacing steps and eyes. “If you dare hit me in the face again, you will be sorry.” April raised her hand to slap him but he caught it in the air. “You bastard! You will regret it! I promise! I will make
