“If he thinks that he can relieve his guilty conscience by paying me back, then he can think again!”
Shan listened attentively to my tirade after I told her what happened at my unannounced visit to the Gunner’s office.
It was true what they say, ignorance is bliss.
“I shouldn’t have acted impulsively and followed him there. Now, I can’t dump whatever I heard from my mind.” I told Shan shakily.
It was hard to unhear what I heard. Victor Gunner only got close to me and the children because he wanted my shares.
If only he had approached me and not tried to ensnare me using underhanded tactics, I would have been magnanimous and let&

BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE Chapter 83. Complete Family
Pepper POVUpon hearing Victor’s announcement, I had forgotten to comment on how Aaron addressed him. Not Mr. Victor, but Daddy.It would have been a momentous moment for us, but it paled in comparison to Victor’s shocking revelation.If Victor did not announce what he did, Aaron calling him Daddy for the first time would have been a happy event.I would have been elated by this latest development.But my happiness was punctured by Victor’s statement earlier about moving in with us.Victor was not asking.Neither was he requesting.He was imposing.I wanted to scream and stamp on his foot in frustration.Just when he told me that he wouldn't bulldoze his way in, he was doing it again.He was forcing my hand again.Where was our talk about taking it nice and slow?My face contorted in annoyance, and I was so ready to blow my top, but the protest was stuck in my throat when I heard Althea speak, telling me her thoughts about this current development in our lives.She was so happy.“Yey!
BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE Chapter 82. Moving In
Pepper POV“You patched things up?” Shan asked eagerly when Victor left for the night.After dining at home, with Victor becoming our regular cook and Althea working as his little assistant, Shan came to my room to fish for information.I was surprised. She had been silent the whole afternoon and evening, and I thought she wouldn’t be eager to inquire about my talk with Victor.I stopped applying neat cream on my face to face her.“We have an understanding,” I told her, but then I pierced her with a sharp look.“You still owe me,” I warned.Shan giggled. “I am sorry, but if I did not do that, you won’t kiss and make up. You did, didn’t you?” There was excitement in Shan’s voice that was both alarming and satisfying.It did not deter the blush staining my neck and face at the mention of the kiss.Surprisingly, my talk with Victor, though a little unnerving at first, managed to break the ice between us. This softened my stance, allowing me to finally let myself listen to what Victor ha
BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE Chapter 81. You Are Still Trespassing
Pepper POVI nodded as I digested his words and let the idea roll in my head.It is imperative that, as the triplets’ parents, Victor and I should start working as a team instead of two adults trying to steer clear of each other.Well, the latter part was my fault.And because the children grew up with me, they tend to pick up things like tension and strange vibes around us.They knew, from our first meeting, that Victor and I were not on good terms.“We are partners, Pepper. Our children depend on us to provide them with a secure and loving environment. Love should start from us.”Goosebumps formed on my skin when he mentioned the word “love.”Since our marriage had gone awry, which has led to our divorce, thoughts of romantic love ticked me off.I had been burned by love, and it made me wary of committing to another man.“I wanted to re-earn your trust, Pepper. And maybe someday, your love.” Hearing the gentleness in his voice made me remember the Victor I used to know back when I w

Pepper POVThe closed door serves as his backdrop as he eyes me with that enigmatic gaze of his I was too familiar with.In one hand, he was holding a bouquet, looking picture perfect.My response was instantaneous, a jolt of indignation flashing through my surprise.Eyes wide with shock, I shot up from the couch, slamming Victor with an accusing glare. In a heartbeat, my fear twisted into irritation, my narrowed gaze broadcasting just how unwelcome he was.“I specifically gave orders. You are not allowed here. You are trespassing.” I said in a high-pitched voice, feeling flustered that he found me in one of my weak moments.I was slumped on the couch, for goodness&rsq
BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE Chapter 79. Flower Delivery
Pepper POV“Did he finally leave?” I asked Shan, who had just placed the receiver back on its cradle. While I waited by her desk, Shan called Abby to ask about Victor. Shan shook her head. “No. He has not left.” My eyes grew wide. “What is he doing in the lobby?” I nearly shriek, overtaken by fresh curiosity about my ex-husband. Shan shook her head. “Are you sure you don’t want him here? Maybe it would be better if you just let things be. Maybe all you need is a good talk.” I shook my head in response.“I can’t.” I was still reeling from what happened at the Gunner-owned building. Victor confused me. He makes me flustered. When he announced earlier that he wanted me back, my knees began to shake. My orderly life is beginning to get messed up since our paths crossed again, and the only remedy I could think of was to limit our daily interaction. It was hard enough to endure his presence every morning for the triplets’ sake. I don’t hate him, but I can’t allow myself to be clo
BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE Chapter 78. Still Want You Back
Victor POVPepper is being difficult again, I thought to myself after receiving an official email sent by her assistant.The letter started polite, with all the proper punctuation. It was succinct and direct.“Dear Mr. Gunner. We wish to inform you that Ms. Pepper Ferguson is requesting early dissolution of your cooperation with us at the Women Project.”I snorted when I read the contents of the letter. They were thanking me for my valuable input and services, but they are letting me go regretfully.I shook my head after reading the email and grunted in response.If Pepper thinks that she can dismiss me that easily, she has to think again.I reached out for the phone and called the one person who summoned me to replace him.“Did you hear the news? Pepper just dismissed me.” I told him, feeling miffed that Pepper made a decision that concerns me without proper consultation.Samuel Burke’s reply was a resounding laugh on the other end of the line.The sound grated on my already frayed n
