All Chapters of Lost in your Curves : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Alex relates:Again, it was Saturday, I wasn't in much of a hurry that morning since Ava had left early.That day we were to go to visit her grandfather, but she had an engagement with her friends and decided to meet them first so that we could spend the quiet afternoon at Mr. Chester's, without other engagements to interrupt us.She needed a break, since the new curvy clothing line was announced in the company, the work had been crazy and well, I was used to that, but apparently, she wasn't.I noticed that she was more and more tired and absent-minded, dark circles began to show and almost everything was forgotten, not to mention that she seemed more tense, more anxious, and irritable, however, I understood her, stress can be very harmful.All this intensified, especially with the arrival of Joselin, I assumed that despite my explanation, Ava could not help but feel anxious and perhaps somewhat insecure, knowing that there was an ex-girlfriend nearby.I had to think of a good way to

Ava relates:I went into our room to pack my bags, trying to keep my emotions in check. It wasn’t easy. My throat was already sore, my body ached, and my heart felt like it was breaking.“Ava, what are you doing?” Alex came in and grabbed my arm.“It saves you work and time,” I replied, frowning. Anger was the best way to keep tears at bay. I pulled away from his grip to continue packing.“What? What are you saying? I don’t want anything with that woman…”“For now…” I started, but he cut me off.“Ava, please!” He took me by the arms, forcing me to look him in the eye with that piercing blue gaze that had always done so much to me. “I love you. I don’t want anything with her. You have to believe me.”“That’s what you say now, just like everyone else. But there will come a time when you’ll end up giving in. It always happens like this…” I tried to sound calm. That had been my reality for years. I couldn’t deny that Alex had feelings for me, and he had shown me more care than all my ex-b

Ava relates:Ava relates:I was going to lose my mind, yes, that was surely what would happen. I was at my parents' house, and the only person I could talk to at times was Cristina, the housekeeper. Although I enjoyed the brief moments of her company, most of the time, I was alone.My mother was always in her world, planning parties and events, and my father was at the company. I could barely see him on occasion. And I missed Alex—every day, every minute—as if it were an addiction, suffering from withdrawal.I always thought of Alex, and every night, I cried in silence, longing for his embrace, his breath on my neck before sleep, and his words of love. There were even days when, out of nowhere, anxiety attacks would hit, pushing me to go back, and I could barely contain them.I had already endured a month without Alex. And even though I asked my grandfather not to look for me, every day I would look out the window of my room, hoping to see him arrive, shouting to me and taking me back

Ava relates:I slowly raised my eyes, feeling my hands start to sweat, my heart pounding, and my stomach churning. A tailored suit came into focus before me.Alex had come for me! Emotion overwhelmed me, and my eyes instantly filled with tears.But as I looked further up, a familiar face—one I wasn’t expecting—confronted me. It was Ethan.My mouth went dry, a wave of dizziness hit me, and for a moment, I thought I might fall off the swing. First Eva, and now him?I could have sworn it was Alex, but it seemed fate was determined to force me to face the demons of my past.“Ava, I’m back,” he said, a smile spreading across his face.I snapped my book shut with a loud thud and stood up, ready to leave, but Ethan grabbed me by the arm, stopping me.“Ava! Wait!” His smile disappeared, replaced by a look of anxious desperation.“What do you want?” I growled, refusing to turn around.“Nothing! It’s just that… I was passing by, and seeing you here surprised me, so I thought…”“What? That you c

Alex relates:It was a good day. My lawyer had called me early in the morning to confirm what we had already suspected: Joselin had left.All it took was filing a lawsuit against her for a substantial amount of money, adding the aggravating factors of her harassment and violating the restraining order. That was enough for her to disappear as suddenly as she had arrived.Although they hadn’t found Mike yet, Ava’s frustrated ex-boyfriend, or her former friend Cecil, the investigators had informed me that they were following a lead.So, for me, it was a day of achievements, and I was so happy and eager to see Ava that I was starting to seriously wonder if it was time to go find her.That morning, I went to the office to take care of some loose ends. I planned to get everything in order before thinking about flying to Paris to surprise my wife, when life surprised me instead.My secretary, Olivia, called.“Mr. Grand?” Her voice came through the receiver.“Is something wrong, Olivia?”“I’v
