Three years later.

"Baby, I love it here!" Lily screeched, excited as they checked the giant mansion that would be their new home. "Let's hurry up and pay right now. Your mom really referred a lovely place for us!"

Brad stood there proud of himself. "Yea, it's alright. I'm just glad you like it, baby." He walked over to her, pulled her closer and leaned in for a kiss. Lily wrapped her arms around his neck, pressing her boobs to his chest. When he pulled free, a wild grin rested on his face.

"Come on, pay to the agent and let's move in right away. Oh, I can't wait to feel you in me, right on that new bedroom of ours." She moaned as she bit her lips.

A young lady behind them cleared her throat to let them know she was still around. She was the agent who brought them to check the house.

Brad found her cough a bit disrespectful but he shrugged it off. "We want this one. Let's get the payment preparation ready." He said gruffly.

"Yes sir. Uh, excuse me sir, I have to pick this." The lady's voice was firm. She reached for her phone and quickly excused herself to pick the call. A while later, she came back. "Oh I am so sorry about that--"

Unknowingly to the lady, Brad was already fuming with rage. "Get out! I will report you to your fucking boss! How dare you try to walk out on us while we were still talking to you!"

Lily stepped forward, "just calm down, baby." Then she turned to the lady, "look what your stupidity has caused, huh? You moron! Just hurry up and get us the account details so that we can pay and you can leave!"

The lady blinked, completely confused. She didn't understand why they were being so rude to her. But she cleared her throat to give her announcement, "I'm sorry, but my boss has changed her mind. She's not willing to sell to you, so you two, get lost please."

Brad raged out. "Huh! How dare you and your fucking boss! Do you know who I am? I am a fucking Cambridge! Brad Cambridge!"

The lady ignored and walked away, "I think I need to get the security on this one," she muttered as she walked out.

Lily hurried after the agent, "wait! Who the hell is your boss? Why did she cancel all of a sudden? We want this house and that's final."

"You'd have to speak to my boss because this is above me." The lady explained patiently.

Brad was beside them now. "Who the hell is your boss! I would like to speak to her right now! This house was referred to by my mother, Maria Cambridge!"

"I don't have a say in this. But I will call my boss now to know if she would like to speak to you or not." She said, then brought out her phone before anyone could say anything and dialed the number.

Alison was standing tall with her hands on her hips, looking straight at the camera as people around her hyped her with praises. But she knew no amount of that could make her feel comfortable!

"That's right! You look gorgeous, my dear." Celine, a middle aged pretty woman who was Alison's manager said with a big cheery smile on her face. "These photos are what will spell out your name boldly, they'll say 'Ally F. Rose has arrived.'"

Alison groaned. "I still think we're taking it a little far, Celine. It's too early for me to be all out there."

"Too early? My dear, you have sold millions of copies of your novel in just, what, two years? That's a huge success and you need to start putting yourself out there. Besides, if you play your cards right, you'll get movie industries all lined up begging for an adaptation of your latest novel into a movie."

"Maybe," Alison said, still not buying Celine's idea, "still, we should take things slow--"

"--you're talking too much. Big smile, honey, less teeth. Do you not know what sexy means? Jeez, you're half my age and even I've still got it than you!" Celine was saying when Alison's personal assistant, Mira came by to give her the phone again.

"Would you stop this? We're in the middle of something here!" Celine rolled her eyes at Mira.

"It's okay, lemme see." Alison was glad for a break as she went to one corner with Mira.

"It's that man and his wife, the one from Cambridge family. He wants to speak with you and he's angry you won't sell him the house. The agent wanted to know if she should hang up now or maybe you'll speak to Mr Cambridge?" Mira explained.

Alison heaved in a deep sigh. It had been three years since she last heard from Brad, and now he was back. "There's no way I'm selling the house to him." She was determined in her mind. "Give me the damn phone. I'm not afraid of him."

The voice from over there was angry, rage filling his words like if he had his chance, he would shoot her straight up for disrespecting him.

"You still are the same horrible angry piece of shit, aren't you?" Alison said, calming this man down immediately.

"Hey, wh--who the hell are you? Why would you speak to me in this manner!" He yelled out.

"Will you keep your mouth shut already? I am not selling the house to you, Brad. So why don't you grab your little mistress and leave right now while I'm still being nice." Alison made sure her tone was a solid one and was quite impressed with her confidence. Hopefully it would be the same when she was standing face to face with him when he glared at her with those intimidating eyes.

"Wait wait, hold on a minute. Why are you sounding so familiar?...Alison?" Brad pronounced slowly, and Alison could imagine the shock resting on his face now. "Alison, is that you? H--how??"

    Lily's hands wouldn't stop shaking.She stood behind the filthy window, barely to breathe as she watched everything unravel outside. Those idiots hadn't even managed to drag Alison inside before Richard Harrison showed up. One after another, the men she'd paid crashed to the floor until not even one of them was left standing."What the hell..." she whispered. Richard wasn't supposed to be here. He was supposed to be buried in meetings. So why was he here now?Her fingers fumbled so badly she nearly dropped her phone as she scrolled through her contacts until she hit Brad's number.He answered after several rings. "Lily, what's up?""Brad!" Lily cried out at once, her voice breaking out. "There are some people here! And they're beating everyone up. You have to get over here before they kill me!"Silence stretched that lily had to check her phone again to confirm if the call was still connected. Then came a long, tired sigh. "Lily.""No, listen to me!" She pressed herself farther again

  • After Divorce:Ex Husband's Regret.   Lost Composure.

    Richard stood still, his eyes locking on the black SUV disappearing into traffic. For one impossible second, his mind refused to accept what he’d just witnessed.The SUV was already disappearing into the traffic when Richard suddenly snapped back to reality. His gaze darted towards the rear of the vehicle, locking onto the plate number just before another car blocked his view. He repeated the numbers silently, burning them into his memory. Then rushed back to the car, “Follow them!” he hushed the driver who had seen what had just happened too.As the car lurched forward, Richard found the lady that had been with Alison and asked the driver to stop, then recognizing her, he hurried her to get in. Mira hesitated for half a second before climbing into the back seat, breathing hard.Richard never took his eyes off the road ahead. Every traffic light felt too long. “What happened?” he demanded at last after seeing Mira had been more calm. “Who were those men?”Mira swallowed, still trying

  • After Divorce:Ex Husband's Regret.   The Black SUV

    Richard stared at Monique’s message for a long moment before letting out a tired breath.“I want Maggie over for a week, my birthday week. I'll be coming next month to get her.”His expression didn’t even change. His fingers moved across the keyboard almost on instinct and he typed out, “No.”He locked the phone before she could reply and reached for the stack of documents waiting on his desk. There was no point entertaining the conversation. Maggie wasn’t spending a week away from home simply because Monique had decided she wanted company. The next few hours blurred together in a parade of presentations, revised contracts, financial reports, and questions that seemed to multiply every time one was answered. By the time the last investor finally stood to shake his hand, Richard could feel the exhaustion settling into his shoulders.He waited until the conference room had emptied before checking the time; 4:59 p.m. “So much for an early day.” Richard leaned back in his chair and close

  • After Divorce:Ex Husband's Regret.   What Happened?

    Alison's thumb hovered over Richard's name.Another loud bang rattled the front door, making her flinch so hard she almost dropped her phone. "Damn it!" Her heart was pounding heavily.She'd spent half the night convincing herself there wasn't a masked man lurking outside her apartment, and now she was seconds away from calling Richard because someone knocked a little too hard?The banging came again. "Alison!"The familiar voice caused her to freeze still. "...Mira?"A muffled groan answered from the other side. "Yes, it's me! Are you planning to let me in, or should I move into the hallway?"Relief swept through her so fast that she almost laughed."Mira, what the hell are you..." She shook her head and hurried to unlock the door. Mira stood there with one hand still raised from knocking, the other balancing a laptop bag on her shoulder. The moment the door opened, she looked Alison up and down before letting out a long, exaggerated sigh. "There you are at last."Alison pressed a h

    “I don't think anyone is there, Richard.” Alison said, and frowned because it felt like she'd been repeating herself for the tenth time.Richard's face was completely hardened as he dialed his phone, reaching someone. Alison pulled Maggie closer, assuring her all was well. “I'm sure it's just some friendly neighbor or something.”“Neighbors? Do you have neighbors?” Maggie asked, raising a brow.Her lips pressed as she thought of another way to calm her down. “Um, okay.” She knelt down to match her height. “I know you saw someone. But they're gone now, right? I'm just saying, I don't think it was some bad man you saw.”Maggie sighed, nodding slightly. Then she began to describe the image of the person she saw. The descriptions she gave caused Alison's mouth to hang open in shock.Tall man on mask, piercing eyes? Looks expensive?Jimmy.Suddenly, she heard her own name from Maggie and gave a start. “Huh? Did you call me?”Maggie flashed her a suspicious stare, “you kinda blacked out. Ar

    Richard’s shoulders relaxed a little, a helpless chuckle escaping his lips as he gave his daughter an obedient nod. "Alright, boss. Message received."Maggie offered him a satisfied nod of approval.Alison watched the exchange with growing amusement. “She’s really the boss around here, isn’t she?”“You have no idea.” Richard leaned back in his chair with a resigned smile. “Lately she sounds exactly like my mom.”"Maybe your mom is just the only one who knows how to keep you in line," Alison teased, her lips curving into a bright smile. “By the way, why did you—”She was cut off again after asking for like the third time by Maggie whispering something to her dad's ears.Not wanting the conversation to drift back to whatever mysterious reason had brought Richard over, Alison reached for the pet magazine she’d left on the coffee table earlier. She flipped through a few pages before sliding it in front of Maggie. “Here, help me out with an important task, Maggie.”Maggie’s eyes immediatel
