BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE Chapter 240. Right Here. Right Now.
Samuel POVMy fiancée is crying.I was looking at her, and couldn't help the grin that crept to my face.I was happy.Not because I was seeing her bawling her eyes out. I even narrowed my eyes to confirm if that was snot I saw coming out of her nostrils.I took out my handkerchief and offered it to her.She snatched it from my hands and gave me back the key. With utter disregard for poise, she blew her nose.She gave me back the sodden handkerchief, and I stuffed it back into my pocket without taking my eyes away from her face.She looked lovely. Even with her cheeks and nose red, Shan always manages to take my breath away.I shook my head while I watched her eyes teem with water.I thought I would not be able to pull it through.Surprisingly, Shan did not suspect a thing.I have been thinking about it lately. Actually, it was the night we talked about my move back to California. How our conversation went that time bothered me.She was hesitating to go, and because I wanted her, I cam

Shan POVA proposal!I looked at my ring, and then I pulled back from Samuel’s embrace to take a good look at his face.His eyes were shut. It was like he was already content in our position, but his right hand was busy stroking my hair.He looked serene and fine.Early this morning, I couldn't face him. Not because I hated him or I was angry with him, but more because I was sad.I was sure that we were bound to separate.I can’t see a resolution to our problem. I wanted an assurance. I wanted to know if I decided to uproot my life in New York, I won’t regret my decision in the future.But Pepper was right.She often told me that life is a risk. It is a series of twists and turns, of craggy paths and marble floors.But I was tired of risking my heart all the time. And then, at the end of the day, I will find that I have nothing left.I was a mass of nerves. I was afraid, hesitant, and frustrated.Again, I looked at my ring and sighed.I was waiting for it for a long time. When I thoug

Samuel POVAfter I sent Donny and Pearl back to their hotel, I decided to drop by the Women’s Project to sort out my things.I went to my office with the intention of getting my important files.I was about to leave when I decided to drop by Pepper’s office to smooth out some details of my work. I was hoping we could discuss the candidates I had shortlisted to replace me and help speed up the transition process.I just did not expect to overhear the conversation between her and Shan.Early this morning, I was feeling down.I can’t shake the disappointment I felt after hearing the hesitation of Shan about moving in with me in California.I hated the fact that she was choosing to stay here rather than come with me. Of course, that meant that Shelly would be staying here, too.I don’t think I can stand that kind of set-up.Shan and Shelly are my family. They belong to me.We should be together, not miles apart.Last night, I kept wondering why Shan would refuse to come with me. Without
BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE Chapter 237. I Won't Reject You
Pepper POVTwenty minutes later, I called Shan to my office.It took Victor and me twenty minutes to calm down after the torrid kiss we shared.I wanted to berate him for doing this behind my back, but I guess I was overwhelmed by the knowledge that he would stop at nothing to keep the children and me by his side.Victor has repeatedly shown me how far he would go to have us in his life. He would stop at nothing to be with us.Sometimes, it made me wonder if I was deserving of his love because, let’s face it, I was able to walk away from him when the going gets tough. When our relationship ended, I did not think twice about divorcing him.Until now, I still rued that fact. I had given up on us.I was the one who ended us. Not him.“You look preoccupied. Are you still angry at me?”I shook my head in response to his question.I knew he was waiting for me to explain.“I was just thinking that if our roles were reversed, would I be able to show the same commitment you have shown me?”I

Victor POVPepper fell silent.I was waiting for her to say something. It looks to me as if she was in deep thought, mulling over my words.I know how important Samuel and Shan were to him, and I don’t want her to break their friendship because of work.Surely, there is always a way. So long as people keep meeting each other halfway.In every relationship, compromise is the key.I recount in my head the many instances where Pepper and I accommodate each other’s opinions, biases, and prejudices.It was not always easy to agree with each other, but there had to be a meeting point somewhere as long as the people involved were willing.Nothing in life is impossible. Only difficult.Even the toughest rock can crack when exposed to water. It will take time, but it will happen.I smiled when I saw her capitulating.I saw the facial expressions that flitted on her face. She was debating inwardly.“You know that it was not easy. I fired Samuel, but I never told him to leave New York.”“And wha
BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE Chapter 235. Reconsider
Pepper POVMy brows furrowed in confusion after hearing Victor's barrage of information.Frankly, I have not thought of the ramifications of my decision yesterday. When I fired Samuel, I was not thinking straight. I only thought that I wanted to relieve him from becoming a ping-pong ball.He can’t go back and forth between my parents and me. I can’t compromise his profession like that.Shan’s case also slipped my mind.Since I arrived this morning, I have been so busy that I haven't had time to chat with Shan. Come to think of it, I haven’t checked on her since we parted yesterday.Some friend I was.I wanted to berate myself, but what good would it do? The deed had been done.I made a mental note to check on her later, after I reviewed the dossier Samuel sent me for his possible replacement.There were four candidates, and I was thoroughly combing through each one’s information.Samuel’s a tough act to follow.It would be hard to replace him, but what can I do? At some point, I know
