BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE Chapter 33. The First Time We Went Out for a Date
Pepper POVI thought that was the end of it. I thought I already made it clear to Victor that he can’t do anything to make me change my mind about remarrying him. A chuckle escaped my lips.“Marry him?” I snorted when Shan and I retreated inside my room. The children were already asleep, and Samuel had already left, but Shan stayed at my request. I needed to vent out. I needed Shan to listen.And that’s what she did. “The nerve of the guy to ask me to marry him again? Didn’t he have a screw loose somewhere?” “He must be delusional to think that I would remarry him! I already escaped a worthless marriage, why would I want to move back in?”I kept pacing the floor while Shan followed my movements with my eyes. “He already made his choice six years ago. I, too, made mine. We can no longer unravel the past just because of a whim.” I was shaking my head, too shaken by the words I heard out of Victor’s mouth. If he had said that six years ago, maybe I would have stayed. But he show
BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE Chapter 32. Six Years Too Late
PepperThe door burst open to show Benedict Gunner, my former father-in-law, barging in, unannounced.His appearance made my children jump up in surprise.Ignoring everyone but me, Benedict purposely marched inside and stopped in front of me. His jaw set.My first reaction upon seeing him was to protect my children.Nervously, I gathered them closer to my body just as Benedict demanded,“What is the meaning of this? Why are you bringing in your lowlife upbringing to my son’s office?”The sound of his bellow transported me back to that time six years ago when he almost threw me out of their home

Pepper POV“From now on, you are not allowed to brandish your squirt guns anywhere!” I told the triplets while they stood in line, heads bent, and their hands placed on their backs. We were inside Victor’s office after the ruckus they created at the shoot.The children looked clearly chastened. But the damage had been done. “You ruined the shoot!” I told them, making them see the enormity of their actions. Althea lifted her chin defiantly. “He’s holding your hand. He is our enemy. He shouldn’t be touching you.” The protectiveness in her voice warmed my heart, but I did not want my children to grow up thinking they can have a free pass at hurting people. I allowed them to do that one time because I felt immense satisfaction in seeing Victor stumped for the first time in his life. I bet it was the first time someone talked back at him, and to think that they were his own children. I don’t know how I am going to face everyone in the studio after what my children did. If only I coul
BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE Chapter 30. Crumbling From the Inside
Victor POVThe three children ran around the studio. Their lithe bodies and sturdy legs carried them while Samuel and Pepper's assistant tried to catch them. All to no avail.They were quick. The three must have been experts. They must have done this before, I decided while watching them skillfully navigate through a maze of people and equipment, dodging everyone who tried to prevent them from escaping. The ruckus they created disrupted the shoot. While the three children ran around, the director/photographer was pulling his hair in frustration. Still, he couldn't do anything against the children because I had already given him a warning look ahead of time. Chairs overturned, the camera stand toppled over, while the director/photographer of the shoot cried hysterically, stepping forward in time to catch a million-dollar worth of equipment, and hugging it to his chest. The director/photographer caught the million-dollar worth of equipment. His face showed relief when it emerged un
BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE Chapter 29. Stick my Head on the Floor
Pepper POV“Mommy?” Althea’s voice jolted me from tiptoeing out of their room. I berated myself mentally for not being careful enough. Regretfully, I turned around and went back to where my daughter was. When I reached her bed, I found that she had already kicked her comforter to the foot of the bed and was sitting up, her back against the headboard. Althea took in my appearance, and when she noticed that I was garbed in my corporate attire, her brows furrowed in confusion. “You did not tell us you have an appointment today.” She pointed it out, and that made me feel a bit guilty.Since they learned how to communicate with me, I make it a point to tell them my appointments for the next day during bedtime. Last night, I was not able to tell them because Samuel relayed the message to me right after I put them to bed. I sat on her bed, stroked her cheek, and tucked a stray strand on the back of her ear.All the while, I was smiling wistfully. My little girl is growing. She was so
BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE Chapter 28. Cooking Up Something
Pepper POV"What are you doing, Victor Gunner?" I cried in outrage when he gripped my wrist and forced me away. I kept struggling against his manacle hold, but because he caught me off guard, he had a better advantage than I did. It also did not help that he seemed determined in what he had set out to do, considering the firm set of his jaw. But while I let him drag me away, I kept throwing him threats.We reached the parking area, and he dragged me to his car. My teeth gritted in annoyance when I saw that we were becoming quite an attraction. People were eyeing our progress with open-mouthed stares, but no one dared to interfere to help me. It must be because they knew Victor Gunner as the face of Gunner Holdings, Inc.It was that or… I shook my head, not wanting to acknowledge what my brain dictates to me - that we are now living in an apathetic society where people don’t care about others anymore. When we reached his car, Victor urgently tapped on the driver’s side window, a
