Mr. Ex Husband, Why're You Back After Divorce?

Mr. Ex Husband, Why're You Back After Divorce?

Synopsis Katherine McQueen's world shattered when her father borrowed from Massimo Hollingsworth, a ruthless New York billionaire who commands the fearsome Hollingsworth dynasty. When Massimo arrived to collect his due, a tragic accident left him in a coma. Desperate and cornered, Katherine was forced into a marriage she never wanted. His powerful relatives plotted his death, certain he wouldn’t survive, eager to erase her as well by throwing her out once she becomes a widow. But Massimo did survive. When he awakened, the ice in his gaze was nothing compared to the fury in his heart. He recognized Katherine as the daughter of the man who orchestrated his accident. Hatred replaced reason. Cruelty became his weapon. “I heard you might be pregnant with my child already? Abort it. I don’t want a child from your wretched bloodline.” Devastated, Katherine fled, building a new life far from his shadow. But seven years later, fate played its cruel hand again. At a bustling amusement park, her brilliant young son, a boy who looked like a miniature Massimo, pointed to a man on stage. “Mom, why does that man look so much like me?” “Because he’s your uncle. But remember, never cross his path. He’s dangerous… he even threatened me while I carried you.” Yet her son was no fool. Taking matters into his own hands, he wrote a letter to Massimo. "You are my dad, but you terrified my mother while she was pregnant with me. What kind of father does that make you? I hate that I look so much like you. But guess what? I’ve come to stay and suffocate you.”

Chapter: Chapter Twenty-one
Chapter Twenty One Get face masks. Get fake guns. Everything had been planned down to the last detail. For three days, Katherine and her three allies had orchestrated every move, each step building toward tonight. It was Arianna’s idea that cracked the code. Her idea was to infiltrate the hotel from the inside. And they’d found a female staff member working discreetly under the radar. Now, she was their ghost in the machine, their eyes and hands inside enemy territory. Massimo’s security had been formidable, but not impenetrable. A fake emergency would scatter the guards and an anonymous threat would be phoned. While chaos unfolded on the lower floors, the CCTV feeds would go dark, thanks to a timed blackout engineered by the insider. At exactly 7:00 PM, the woman was to slip the sedative into Massimo’s drink and. moments later, he would be unconscious. Tyke and Willow, masked and armed with fake guns that looked real enough to cause panic, were to go inside silently through

Chapter: Chapter Twenty
Chapter Twenty"I can’t, Ari. You don’t understand. I just can’t do this. It’s not even a task, it’s a setup," Katherine said, pacing the living room with both hands tangled in her hair. Her voice cracked at the edges, strained by exhaustion and panic. She hadn't slept a wink all night.Arianna sat quietly on the couch, legs crossed, her eyes following Katherine’s every step. Even Tyke and Willow stayed silent, though it was obvious from their expressions that their minds were spinning with possible solutions.It had been twenty four hours since Mr. Rogers dropped the bomb on her and Katherine hadn’t stopped refusing since.Convince Massimo, that was the task. Massimo, the same man she’d stolen and escaped from. The father of her child. The one she thought she’d never face again.Arianna finally stood up and gently caught Katherine’s arm. "I know it feels like too much. Honestly, I wouldn’t want to face him either," she said softly. "But we don’t have a choice. We can’t afford to ba

Chapter: Chapter Nineteen
Chapter Nineteen “What?” Katherine gasped, stumbling a step back. “No, I didn’t… I never—” Her voice cracked, confusion flooding her features. “Why would you say something like that? I’ve never even had a conversation with Myles except to greet him in passing. Why would you think I’m involved in this?” The room buzzed with murmurs and sneers. “Spare us the drama,” Grace scoffed loudly from her seat. “Always acting like a saint.” Mr. Rogers didn’t speak. Instead, he shoved his phone in Katherine’s face. “Then explain this,” he growled. Katherine blinked at the screen as she saw a message thread that was sent to her number. The contact name was Katherine ❤️ And the message was: “We’ll share the money like we planned. Come meet me at the usual place, baby. Your love, Myles.” Her entire body went cold. Her knees buckled, and Ariana immediately stepped in to hold her up. “No… no, no, no,” Katherine whispered, her eyes wide with horror. “That’s not me! I swear! Please, someone b

Chapter: Chapter Eighteen
Chapter Eighteen Katherine sat beside her father in the quiet living room, the hum of the television barely filling the silence between them. Matthew, Katherine's father's head was bowed, his fingers laced tightly in his lap. They’d just finished speaking to Thelma, through Madam Racheal, as always. It’d become their only connection to her. “I miss her so much it hurts, Katherine,” Matthew finally whispered, his voice cracked with pain. “Every single day, it feels like a hole in my chest.” Katherine’s heart clenched. She reached out and gently placed her hand over his. “I know, Dad,” she said softly. “I miss her too. But one day we’ll be with her again. And by then—” she exhaled deeply “—we’ll finally know the truth. The truth about how Thelma became Massimo’s daughter when she was once my baby sister.” The words tasted bitter in her mouth. Her stepmother, Bethel, hadn’t even reached out, not a single call, not even after the news of her own daughter’s disappearance broke. Th

Chapter: Chapter Seventeen
Chapter Seventeen Katherine held Ethan’s small hand tightly as they walked into the amusement park. The principal’s words were still echoing in her mind, and Ethan, usually bubbling with energy anytime they were together, had been uncharacteristically quiet since she picked him up from school. She guided him to a shaded bench away from the noise and knelt beside him, brushing a hand over his hair. “Ethan,” she began softly, “your principal told me what happened yesterday. And I need you to tell me the truth. You’ve never hidden anything from me before, and I don’t understand why you kept this from me. What really happened between you and your classmates?” Ethan looked down, his fingers gripping the edge of his shirt. He knew exactly why the principal had called his mom. And he knew he’d to tell her, even if it might hurt her. Just like what those boys said had hurt him. He finally looked up. “They were bullying me, Mom.” Katherine’s expression softened, and she reached ou

Chapter: Chapter Sixteen
Chapter Sixteen Meanwhile, Massimo sat in his office, elbows resting on the mahogany desk, fingers pressed under his chin as he stared at his laptop screen. It was the private investigator’s report again. It was useless, just like the countless others he’d commissioned over the years. Seven goddamn years, and still nothing. No trace of Katherine. His jaw clenched. The memory hit him like a hammer to the chest. Coming home that night to a deathly silent mansion, all the staff unconscious, drugged. Katherine was gone. He’d nearly killed the guards when they eventually stirred awake. His fury had been uncontainable. But nothing compared to what came next. Two days after she disappeared, Uncle Ryan had waltzed into his office with a smug grin and a file in his hand, the very same file Massimo had believed was safely hidden in the concealed shelf of his bedroom wall. And what had Ryan said? "Your reign as CEO is over, Massimo. Katherine helped me find this, in exchange for
