Pepper POV

I 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 35. Cursing and Hissing in Pain

    Pepper POVWhen the two were out of my sight, I hesitated briefly on whether I should stay and enjoy myself.Since the kids were born, I have not had much time for myself. My days revolved around my triplets and the Women's Project.The Foundation had become my therapy. I was so focused back then on healing because who wanted to be broken for too long?I wanted to move forward.“Channel your energy on worthy endeavors.” Sam used to tell me. It was a slow process, but I did it. I focused my energy on my kids and the Foundation, which in turn, left me no time to indulge in socialization. And I did, which left me no time to indulge in socialization.I did not trust my decision-making capability.Back then, I believed that I failed at reading people. I trusted too much, which led to the downfall of my marriage.Now, I know better. That is why, in the years that followed, I have been selective with my friends, maintaining only those with whom I trust fully.But at night, I get to thin

  • BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE    Chapter 34. Beginning to Sail

    Pepper POVMemories rushed through my head when I let my mind wander back in time. I closed my eyes as images from the past flashed before me, frame by frame, like a movie playing in my mind. “I missed you.” I heard Victor whisper, making my eyes open in surprise. Anger burst inside. I wanted to lash out at him, and I did. I could not help the onrush of feeling coming in torrents. "How dare you?" I snarled, turning my head around abruptly to face him. But I was surprised to find that we were only separated by mere inches. A little inclination of his head and our lips would have touched. I jumped up to put a good distance between us, but someone from behind pushed at my back, and I lost my balance. "Ahh!" I cried in surprise.My arms flailed for balance before I found something to break the fall. With eyes growing wide in horror, I fell toward Victor. I could not blink.It took me a while for the whole thing to sink in. My hands were pressed to Victor's shoulders, and he was

    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

  • BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE    Chapter 31. Don't Ever Lie to Me

    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
