Chloe’s POVThere’s something about the scent of lemongrass and fresh blowouts that always soothes me. I sat in the leather chair of Luxe Mane Salon, sipping on a chilled cup of lavender tea, letting the warm steam and gentle hum of dryers lull me into a brief moment of peace. For once, I wasn’t thinking about Lyon. Or Sherry. Or revenge.I was just Chloe.“Hey, Miss, we’ll start with a deep scalp massage, then your usual caramel gloss, right?” the stylist asked.I smiled faintly. “Yes. Thank you.”Sometimes, life throws you into the lion’s den just to see if you'll come out alive or become a feast for the beasts. I didn’t think I’d be crossing paths with her so soon. I wasn’t even ready.But life doesn’t wait for you to be ready, it just hits.It was supposed to be a calm afternoon. Just me, a quiet salon, a cup of iced lavender tea, and some peace while I got my nails done. I hadn’t had much of that lately. But the moment I heard her voice cut through the air behind me; sweet, veno
Sherry's POV One thing with becoming someone's second chance or an option, is that they can leave you at any time, when they feel you're of no value anymore. Because someone should wake me up and tell me what just happened is a dream to me.I know the bad days, he's having at work, and for me to cancel my fitness training today, just to go to the trade fair and get some sexy lingerie, just to make him happy when he's back.But did you see the disappoinment in his eyes, he couldn't even look at me the second time, he chased me away because his favorite ex wife is back in town?I don't know how it is my business, but in this marriage of a thing, it is forever and not even a minus can be on it. I was very angry over the things Lyon said to me. How dare him call me a slut and stripper? Simply because I was only trying to enlighten his mood? You see men, they'll always stain your white and make you the evil one, no matter the sacrifices you've done for them.When I met Lyon, he was very
Lyon's POV I returned home, after a stressful day at work. I could swear, today is one of the worst days I've had all my life. After everything, my sacrifices, my dedication, my time and sweat I poured in to make his company, the talk of the town, he couldn't even look me in the eyes when he demoted me.That is one thing, with having to work under anyone but my boss was a good man before Chloe entered his life, he always call me up for any suggestions, or emergencies. But today, all those times, where I portray myself as the boss has come to an end. My ex wife is now my boss, does that even make sense, telling me to obey her instructions?Chloe might think she's winning, but she's just don't know, I'm keeping quiet because of my love for her, sooner or later, she will have no choice than to be with me.I walked up to my wine bar and took some shots of Martel and exhaled at the sofar. I was really stressed out today and judging from the look of the way I dose off immediately, without
Chloe's POV I knew the moment Lyon came up to my husband and ask for a private moment, something is cooking up his sleeves but I cared less, no matter how he rolls on the floor or manipulate my husband Richard, he can never go wrong from his judgement. And that's the part I love about Richard; He's a man of few words and he always makes sure, he never regret any decision he has made for himself.I was done speaking with few staffs, they all smile at my guidance and call me "Boss Wife" and just as I expected, it keeps coming to pass. I was walking down the staircase to meet up with the workers at the second floor when someone walked up to me."Hey, Miss Boss Wife!". He called out sarcastically.I turned and it was Lyon. When will this devil, let me be and accept the fact, he's truly nothing but a loser now?Yes, how may I help you please! I asked, my tone straight and my eyes fixated on him. One thing I noticed, once you're in contact with your enemy, they'll always look into your ey
Richard's POV****Even with the applause and uproar that swept through the large conference hall, my gaze was fixed on Lyon, the anger in his eyes was clearly visible yet I could not fathom why.But more than the expression of anger that lingered on his face, I was more furious at the way he stared at Chloe, there was disrespect and I could not help but gritted my teeth, furiously wondering what was going on.“Thank you all for having me here, I promise that I would put more effort into this company and making certain that we become the best that everyone would want to partner with and with, and with Mr. Lyon by my side, I strongly believe that we can achieve that”Chloe had a warm smile on her face while she went ahead with the speech. There was another applaud from the board.Despite the fact that she had given all credit to him, yet Lyon still maintained a stern expression, making me curious why he was so angry at my woman taking over the position.The meeting went on with a few ot
Lyon's POV****I was just having a time alone at home with so much that was going through my head when I had been informed of an emergency meeting.“I was the managing director, who dare hold an emergency meeting with informing me about it”I muttered to myself the moment that I had just read through my mail, curious to know what this was about, I began to get dressed.But I was more stunned when I met Chloe at the door. I had no clue why she was here, but most especially, it was more than difficult for me to wipe the image of her.She was looking so stunning, more than she ever looked when she was with me. There was a sting of pain in the pit of my stomach when I first set my eyes on her.I knew that I wanted her back, now she was close yet but felt like she was miles away from me.As I scurried to the conference hall, I was taken aback to see Chloe standing across the table and next to her was Mr. Richard who had his hand wrapped around her waist, no doubt that she was enjoying the
