All Chapters of RISING EX WIFE : Love Me Again Mrs Graves: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Chapter 12EVA'S POINT OF VIEW I heard the front door shut and my stomach dropped. Max was home. Crap. I've been dreading this all day.Max walked in like nothing was wrong. Like he hadn't just shown off Sara to the whole damn world. Like I wasn't a total joke now."Max," I said. My voice came out all shaky.He stopped and looked at me. His face was blank. Cold."Eva," he said, sounding bored.That did it. I lost it.I stormed up to him, shaking all over. "How could you?" I yelled. "How could you bring her into our house? Do you even know what you've done to me? To us?"He raised an eyebrow like I was being dramatic. "What are you talking about?"I laughed, but it sounded more like a bark. "Don't play dumb, Max. You took Sara out in public. Everyone saw you two together. Now I'm all over the news. 'Poor Eva, the wife he left behind.' Everyone's laughing at me!"His eyes flashed, but not with guilt. He just looked pissed off."That's what this is about? What people are saying?" he sne

Chapter 14MAX POINT OF VIEW I pulled up to my grandfather's huge house, feeling like I was gonna be sick. The big gates, the perfect lawn, the weird quiet, it was all the same, but today it felt different. Today, my stomach was in knots.I got out of the car and fixed my suit. It was cold, but that wasn't why I was shivering. My grandfather's phone call last night scared the crap out of me. When he calls me to the family house, it's always serious. And from how he sounded, I knew this was gonna suck.I barely got inside before the butler showed up. He took me to the study the same room where my grandfather made all his big deals and control everyone around him. It's where he built the company I'm supposed to run now.When I walked in, the door clicked shut behind me. There he was, sitting behind his big desk like always. He didn't even stand up when I came in. He never does. Even when he's just sitting there, you can feel how powerful he is."Maximilian," he said, all deep and bossy

Chapter 16EVA'S POINT OF VIEW The sun was barely peeking through my curtains, I woke up feeling like crap. I had barely slept I had been tossing and turning all night anyway. Every time I closed my eyes, I kept seeing that stupid picture Sara sent me of Max kissing her, their bodies all pressed up together. It made me want to throw up.I felt empty, like something had been ripped out of me, leaving nothing but pain in its place. I still hadn't decided what to do. My heart ached so much I could barely breathe. I wanted to scream, to cry, to demand answers, but there was no one to ask. Max hadn't come home last night, and the house felt so empty and quiet it was driving me nuts. I had given the maids off because of i want to be left alone.I forced myself to get out of bed and go through the motions of my morning routine, but my heart just wasn't in it. I was standing in the kitchen, staring into my cup of tea like it held all the answers, when the doorbell rang. My stomach did a litt

Chapter 18**EVA'S POINT OF VIEW**I stood there staring at the reporters who surrounded me, It felt like the whole world was spinning around me. All those reporters, their voices and questions were all suffocating me, their noises was too unbearable to bear. They were all yelling at me, accusing me of stuff I didn't do. My heart was pounding so hard I thought it might burst out of my chest. Each beat just reminded me of how messed up everything had gotten, how deep I'd fallen into this pit of total embarrassment."Eva! Is it true you stole your sister's fiancé and married him?""Did you really take him from Sara?""Eva, what do you have to say about all these claims?""Eva! Got any comment about the affair?""Did you actually steal your sister's husband?""Are you a homewrecker?""Eva! What did Sara ever do to deserve what you did to her?""Eva! Answer our questions!"I could barely breathe. My throat felt all tight, and everything was getting blurry 'cause I was trying so hard not t

Chapter 20SARA'S POINT OF VIEW I kept replaying the video of Max defending Eva over and over, thinking maybe if I watched it enough times, it would somehow change. But it didn't. You know when you see something on TV that makes you so mad you can't even think straight? That's exactly how I felt watching Max defend Eva to those reportersI was sitting on my couch, gripping the remote so tight my knuckles were turning white. Every time I heard Max say, "I love her. Eva is my wife, and I won't tolerate anyone disrespecting her," it felt like someone was stabbing me in the heart.His voice sounded so sure, and the way he looked when he said those words... it was like he really meant it. But that couldn't be true, right? It just couldn't.Max loved me. He always had. We had so much history together, a connection that was special. How could Eva, of all people, come between that?I couldn't take it anymore. I jumped up and threw the remote as hard as I could. It hit the wall and broke into
