DIVORCED: MY EX HUSBAND WANTS ME BACK
My whole body began to quiver as I looked up at Ryan who wore a smug or was it? I couldn't tell as my vision was blurred with tears.
"What is the meaning of this?" I questioned still in disbelief. Where had it all gone wrong??!.
"It's exactly what it says in the paper, Ciara"
"And what is that?" I stubbornly inquired. It was as if I didn't want to believe what the paper read until Ryan says it. A part of me still wanted to fight for whatever we still had left.
But then he'd said it. Ryan had uttered those words I so desperately dreaded," I want a divorce, Ciara"
***
Ciara is the heiress to her father's company but she left all of that to be in a contract marriage with Ryan. It was supposed to be a 'no-strings-attached' kind of feeling but, she couldn't help but fall in love with him. Just when she wanted to start a clean slate on their first anniversary, she was handed a divorce paper.
Ryan is a billionaire and a man with a hardened heart. He never saw Ciara as something more than just a 'fake wife' who was willing to help him out with a case. Deciding that he had had enough, Ryan hands Ciara a divorce paper setting himself free from her.
But on his way to the office of the new investor of his company one day, he is overcomed by a welling shock that the name of his new investor was Ciara. The same Ciara he'd once known.
What happens when this two duo meets for the first time since their rough divorce?
Find out!

Chapter: 150. EPILOGUEAlenaOver the week -as we made preparations for our short trip vacation trip to Paris- we wrapped up things at work. As chief Quincy declared my team could go on a break, we went to Dad's restaurant to celebrate. It was there, Kassai decided to break the news that she and Maxton were dating. "Finally" Clara groaned, sipping on her can of beer. "I thought I was going to grow old before one of you could make the first move"Kassai chuckled nervously. "I decided to tell the team so that things won't be awkward later on if we break up""Don't worry about the unknown and live in the present" I advised. "When we reach that bridge, we'll cross it"Maxton springs up from his chair. He didn't look good. "I'm going to use the restroom"Picking up a chicken wings from the bucket, Clara sighs. "One person just got together another is about to go for her honeymoon in Paris soon..""Vacation" I correct. "Not an honeymoon"Kassai gasps with surprise. "You're going to paris?. How do I not know thi

Chapter: 149. MAKING THE MOST OUT OF THE PRESENTAsherMy hand healed up in no time. All that was left for me to now was to decide if I was ready to go back to the hopsital.I decided to speak with Fredinard about it as he was my new pops. "Damn" Fredinard exhaled. "I didn't know you were dealing with so much, Asher. I'm sorry for not paying close attention to you""You did" I corrected him. "I'm the one who didn't want anyone to finding out""Still..""Fredinard" I cut him off. "You don't have to feel responsible for problem. You've loved me like your own son since you came into our lives. That's more than I could ever ask for"I paused. "I decided to tell you about it now because I need your advise on what next to do""You said you still want to be a doctor, right?"I nod. "Yes""Then, take a break" Fredinard concludes. "Use this short break to go on a short vacation somewhere and while doing that, try to get over your phobia?" He paused. "Have you ever thought your phobia was as a result of a pat trauma?"I deeply reasoned Fredi

Chapter: 148. IS THIS SANE?Asher "You look so beautiful" I gasped, staring at Mom in her white wedding gown in the bride room. Never did I think Mom would actually want to settle down and remarry but I guess that Fredinard had some tricks up his sleeve. I better learn it from him. "Thank you, Asher" Mom says in all smiles. She was radiating from head to toe. Words didn't need to be conveyed to be told that she was happy. Anyone could see it. "I'm here!" Clara announces, barging into the room while breathing heavily. "Sorry I'm late, Mom. Traffic was heavy plus I just got off work""Did Alena come with you?" I asked, eager to see my girl. Clara twitched her lips. "You should at least act happy to see me""I am happy to see you but eager to see Alena more"Clara rolled her eyes. "Whatever. She's in the restroom. You can barge in there for all I care, Mr. Eager" Her gaze falls on Whitt as she picks him up from the ground into her arms. "There's my little boarding school kid. How have you been?""I'm fine"Wh

Chapter: 147. SIDE STORY 5KassaiMaxton had called and told me to meet him at Emmiel's bar. I'd contemplated coming up with an excuse to avoid meeting up with him but, Alena had told me to face it head on so that I would be able to quickly get over it. Strolling into the bar, I walked towards Emmiel by the counter. "Hey. Is Maxton here?""He's waiting for you in the VIP section upstairs""Thank you"Heading up the stairs, I played over the words I wanted to say to Maxton on repeat in my head but as soon as my gaze fell on Maxton, I forgot all I had to say. He was seated on a couch at the far end of the VIP section. I remained where I stood, putting some distance between us. "You came" He says. "Well, you called""I've been calling you since yesterday morning, Kass" Maxton says as a matter of fact. "You've clearly been avoiding me. Why?"Why?. "You know why, Maxton""I remember everything that happened that day" He claims. "I'm the one that kissed you so why are YOU the one avoiding me?""Because I know yo

Chapter: 146. DRESSED TO BE REJECTEDAlena"This one" Mom says, pulling out a pink dress from the clothe rack. Ciara and I had gone shopping the next day for a dress I'd wear to Miss Micheal's wedding. I'd told Mom that she didn't need to accompany me but she insisted. So, here we were in Miss Micheal's cloth store picking out a dress while Mom pushed baby Linden's stroller. Whisking the dress from her hands, I went into the dressing room to change into it. Mom had good taste. Stepping out from the dressing room, a short gasp escaped through Mom's lips. "You look like a princess"I blushed. "Thanks, Mom""Do you like this dress or do you want to try another?""I like this one""Then, let's get it"Stepping out from the dress, Mom asked for it to be placed in a bag as she made payment for it by the counter. As we exited Miss Micheal's store, Mom and I moved into the central park and sat down on a bench enjoying the scenery before us. "Thanks for insisting to come along, Mom" I say. "I didn't want to stress you as yo

Chapter: 145. SIDE STORY 4MaxtonIn the bar, I asked Emmiel to pur me another shot of beer. "Another"Emmiel was one of my closest friends I had outside my teammates. His father was owned this bar but as he was sick, Emmiel had been working in his place for the past 6 months now. "No, dude" Emmiel refused. "That's enough""Why?" I slurped. "I'm helping you boost your sales, aren't I?""Listen to me" Emmiel says. "I don't know what you're going through right now but you've had enough alcohol for one day"Letting out an exasperated sigh, adds. "Who the fuck gets drunk in the day time anyways?"I do. And that's because I was trying to forget my feelings for Alena. I hated the fact that she'd even gotten attacked by a victim and I wasn't there for her. Many more things were bound to happen one way or the other and I couldn't be there for her because she chose Asher instead and I hated that. "Fine, don't get me another drink" I splurged, rising up to my feet. "I'll just go drink at another bar""Hey, dude. Stop!
