Hannah’s POV:

The car blurred the buildings and structures outside as it drove by, causing them to appear like smeared spirals through the car window. I relaxed on the cool leather chair, trying to cleanse my mind of the drama that just took place.

The audacity of Lenora to even show up at Josh’s building wasn’t even what got me; it was that she was sneakily following me about, trying to gather whatever evidence she could to feed her delusion that I was still interested in her brother, Hayes.

It was like me moving out of the house and quitting the company wasn’t enough evidence for her that I was done with both of them. She even threw away the food I had prepared for Adam.

I didn’t want to completely disappoint Adam. “I can’t just go back empty-handed; I’m sure he must still be waiting for something to eat.” I thought to myself.

I sat up and was about to instruct the driver to take us to a fast food joint where I could get food for Adam when my phone rang, jolting my concentration.

  • After Divorcing My Ex-Husband, I became His Boss   Chapter 28

    Hannah’s POV:Top Searches—1. Lenora exposed on livestream.2. Lenora bullying videos.3. #TeamHannah.The top three searches were all about the livestream. People who had supported Lenora earlier were shocked at the twist. And one thing that riled people up more than drama was them realizing that they had been used.It was literally like a manhunt for Lenora on the internet right now. Blogs carried the news. Some TV stations broadcast it. Lenora’s name was the headline, but not for the reasons she had wanted.I scrolled down my feed on Facebook. One post with a picture of Lenora read, “I can’t believe I fell for this witch’s tricks and fake tears.”Someone responded to them, “She had us all fooled. Have you seen the article that said she actually dyed her hair brown because she wanted to look more like Hannah?”“Jeez! She really is sick in the head.” The other replied.On Instagram they had dug into the court video and had found the Instagram page of Lenora’s lawyer. His comments wer

  • After Divorcing My Ex-Husband, I became His Boss   Chapter 27

    Hannah’s POV:Social media has been buzzing for the past few days. The story was on everyone’s lips. Lenora’s name was everywhere—basically anyone with internet access had heard about her. And her conference livestream? It had spread like wildfire, with the whole city excitedly watching.But the big question on everyone’s mind was—would the violent wife, Hannah, show up?The answer?Yes.I stepped into the packed hall, black heels clicking against the tile, and a red leather coat contoured my body outline. It was a statement piece, announcing to the room before I even spoke that I wasn’t here to play the victim or win sympathy. No! I was here to blind the lies with the truth and destroy everything that propagated that lie in the first place.Immediately I entered, all eyes turned to me, camera lights flashed like there was a thunderstorm, and the hall itself rattled to its very foundation from the uproar.“She actually showed up?”“She’s all dressed up like she has nothing to be asham

  • After Divorcing My Ex-Husband, I became His Boss   Chapter 26

    Lenora’s POV:I stormed into the house. “F!ck!!” I roared as I flung my bag across the room.“She won again. She freaking won again, like she always does!!” I seethed with the anger hot in my head, boiling in my veins. I felt like I could literally murder someone, and I knew exactly who my target would be…Hannah.Everything had been perfect before she showed up in Hayes's life. Hayes used to love me; he adored me more than anything in this world, and that love had only increased as we grew up. Growing up with Hayes, I always knew he was the man destined for me. He was the one fate had chosen and curated perfectly for me—my soulmate, my other half.Ever since I was a little girl, I had pictured it: me in a white, flowing wedding gown and beside me, Hayes, in black, standing handsomely and complementing my dress. We would have three kids, a boy that takes after him, and two little angels that would be a replica of me.It was all perfect. All planned out in my head.Until Hannah.She s

  • After Divorcing My Ex-Husband, I became His Boss   Chapter 25

    Hannah’s POV:Lies never hold still for long. When light cuts through the constructed walls of lies, the structure crumbles, the mask falls off, and the truth is laid bare. Nothing is hidden under the sun.And the thing with lies is that they are infectious for the ones who tell them; they spread like poisonous vines. They find themselves building up more lies to cover up for their previous lies. But it gets to a point when the dam fills up so much it begins to pour out, all the lies flooding out in all their sinful glory.Today was one of those days when the dam of lies pours out and the light cuts through its thick constructed walls.The courtroom was drenched in loud silence, the tension palpable in the air; you could almost taste it on your tongue. The warm lighting of the room cast a light shadow on the judge's face, who looked like he was in his late forties. His slant eyes hidden behind round glasses whispered years of experience in his field.I was seated in the defendants sec

  • After Divorcing My Ex-Husband, I became His Boss   Chapter 24

    Hannah’s POV:Josh looked at me like I had just declared we launched WWIII. His face was doe-eyed, his face had visibly gotten paler, and there was still a dribble of coffee droplets on his chin.He blinked himself out of oblivion. “You can’t possibly be serious!” He said in disbelief.I just looked at him, my expression calm but serious. I wasn’t joking.“Hannah! Stop!!” He gasped, his hands covering his mouth in stunned amusement as he realized I was being a hundred percent serious.He shook his head. “But that is madness! Just purely insane.” His legs were starting to wobble, and he sat back down, pushing the coffee cup a short distance away before folding his hands together. “So let me get this straight. You want someone to remind Lenora that she could sue you and ask for a huge amount for compensation?”“Yes,” I said simply.He burst into a deranged laugh. His head fell backwards before he brought it back forward, and his expression changed. “Are you burning up? Perhaps the whol

  • After Divorcing My Ex-Husband, I became His Boss   Chapter 23

    Hannah’s POV:My mouth went dry, the metal glass of the phone still pressed against my ear. “What do you mean revoke my spot from the competition?” I asked.I heard Josh’s heavy breathing from the other end, like he was trying to process something that shouldn’t be happening in the first place. “It’s the news, Hannah; it has spread like an infectious vine.” He paused. “These lies they’re spreading about you, are you okay? This must be intense for you.”Intense wouldn’t be the word I would use to describe what I was feeling right now. It would be something around ‘expected.’ I had expected this kind of feigned plot from Lenora. This playing the victim act was her logo, and she wore it like it was a badge of honor. The second word I would use to describe how I was feeling would be ‘unimpressed.’ I was unimpressed that Lenora chose to be this predictable and play this blaming game.Josh’s voice sounded through when he didn’t hear me respond. “I’ll be back in town tomorrow; let’s meet up
