All Chapters of After Divorce, I Return As CEO : Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

"Quite the situation you've gotten yourself into, isn't it, Dearest Son of mine?"Hearing her words, Lucien couldn't help but smile. He stood up and approached the bar, greeting the woman in front of him with a simple nod."Hello, mother, Pleasure seeing you here."" He greeted as if nothing was wrong with the situation at hand."Oh don't play innocent with me, boy," She scolded and the smile on her lips faded a tad bit, allowing way for a more serious expression. One that Lucien wasn't really a fan of, yet, he forced a smile."Officers," Turning to the man with them, Lucien's mother began. "would you please be kind and let me have a moment alone with my son." She requested."Ma'am, that's against protocol, I can't-" The officer had originally began, but with one look from the woman in front of him, he'd glued his mouth shut and began contemplating his answer.The one thing he has learnt while being in this field was knowing when not to step on the wrong person's foot and right now, th

The drive back to her house, surprisingly so, was shorter than she had anticipated.As Ezekiel pulled into the familiar streets of her residence, Ivory recalled that she had to reach out to Lucien.After thanking Ezekiel and stepping out of the car, she pulled out her phone and called Lucien.As usual, the phone only rang for a few seconds, before it was answered.“Lucien, hey,” She called out. “Are you still at the hospital?”The other end of the line was silent for a little while, but when a response came, Ivory frowned.“No, I’m not.” His voice sounded…close.She looked up and was surprised to see him sitting on the stairs of her porch.“Oh God,” she muttered in fright, before chuckling. “You startled me.”As she ended the call and pocketed her device, she approached him.“What are you doing here? The doctor said you weren’t me

After the not so helpful meet up with Cameron and Asher, Gadreel had returned home.Thankfully, Evangeline wasn’t lingering around and after sending Jennifer away, he retired to his study and pulled out the folder that his private investigator has given him a while back.He had refused to look at it ever since then, but now, he had a feeling that looking at it, would help solve the conflict that was brewing within him.So, bracing himself, Gadreel pulled out the contents of the folder, going mainly for the information that has been gathered on Evangeline.He made It through the first page, the picture he had seen before and proceeded to the second.This one wasn’t anything out of the ordinary, explaining in details the thinks Evangeline has done when she was aboard and briefly, the things she had done after Returning.He was about to flip to the next page when something caught his eyes. It was another picture, a recent one with E

Ivory was speechless for the better half of the time since she had walked into the Cafe, trying to wrap her head around why Lucien was here."Lucien," She began, taking a step forward. "What...what are you doing here?""I came to meet up with Mrs. Mendez," Lucien said as he stood up and approached her, standing a few feet away from her. "I contacted her a few days ago, apologizing for not being able to make it to our previous meeting and to, set up a new one. And today happened to be that day." He explained, but Ivory couldn't help but frown.Huh, she thought. Didn't Annabelle say that Lucien had never contacted her. Did she lie to her and if so, why did she do that?"Mrs. Mendez," Ivory was about to take her up on that little thought of hers, question her, but much to her dismay, Lucien stepped in front of her, blocking her line of vision."I answered your question, V, why not answer mine. Why are you here? This isn't the company, now is it?""Well, I had a few things to do around th

The drive to the hospital was a silent one, no one said a word, and although Gadreel occasionally glanced at her, he sais nothing and neither did she.So the silence remained until the last moment."We're here," Gadreel announced once they had pulled up at the hospital's parking lot.They both got out of the car and headed for the entrance, walking down the hallway and to the ward where Lionel was.As they were nearing the ward, Evangeline, who was standing a few feet away, came into their vision.She spotted them almost immediately and rushed to their side, no more accurately, she was rushing to Gadreel's side, when she spotted Ivory and stopped."What...what is she doing here?" She questioned, glaring hard at her stepsister."Evangeline," Gadreel called out in a somewhat warning tone. "We're at a hospital."Evangeline was mortified and upset over Gadreel's words. Since when...no, there was no use asking that question.Gadreel had been acting weird the past few days. When it started,
