CLARA

That seemed to have come out of nowhere, but the fire in his eyes was not just from… nowhere.

I swallowed, finding my voice again, "Well, that ship sailed a long time ago. Now leave, please. We cannot let Zayn find you here."

He said nothing for the first few seconds, moving closer. My guards straightened, and he glared at them before speaking, "I just need a few minutes. We have to talk. It's about the company, moving forward. I know you have not recollected your memories but we can still go through some details now if you'd like."

That piqued my interest actually. Fred had betrayed me and sold the company that was supposed to be owned by the both of us… some kind of partnership fraud that I could not prove, still. Lucas was the buyer, and his he wanted to discuss.

I should let him in. He said he still has feelings for me, maybe we could come to an agreement. I bit down on my bottom lip as I pulled the door open wider, ushering him in.

He nodded once, then started towards me, t

  • Beware Dear Ex, I’m Back For Revenge   113. REDIRECTIONS

    LUCAS The renovations were finally complete. Simon cleared his throat beside me, making me look up from my phone where my fingers lingered over Clara's contact, wanting nothing more than to know how she was. I raised a brow at him when he said nothing after the first few seconds. He let out an awkward laugh then, speaking up, "Your mother called." I turned away from him with a sigh. He continued anyway, "She said she would kill herself if you end up giving the company back to Clara." Okay, what the fuck? My gaze shifted back to Simon, stunned. He shrugged, looking scared himself. "Actually, she said she would frame you up and that you know she is really good at that one. She wants you to beware of that, and according to her… not test her." He warned, after which he took some steps back whilst still keeping his eyes on me as if to lock his words in. He finally turned his back on me and walked away, and I sat back on my chair, lost in thought. The thing was, my mo

    CLARA"… and yes, it is also good in nutrients just so you know. They all are, I think that is common knowledge. You have to take enough of this…" Nora trailed off but I was barely listening.It was now four days since I left Lucas's house. According to dad—fuck, I was now calling someone dad—he called everyday. I really had no idea where dad stood with this man, to be honest. When I first told him what happened and how he deceived me that our wedding was still on when everything about us as a team had been called off almost four years ago. At first, dad was furious. He called Lucas while I cried and kept yelling at him. After that, though, they began to work together to take care of me. He took things from Lucas to support me. I knew this because Nora would not shut her mouth about it. And yes, Nora. It was weird that I had a female friend after years of trying to keep one. Due to my condition, it was hard for me to have a friend because of how tedious it was to be around me. I co

  • Beware Dear Ex, I’m Back For Revenge   111. KNOWLEDGE OF HER PAST

    LUCASClara's eyes shone with hurt and there was moisture in her eyes—tears that I could see her struggling so hard to hold back.But she walked back to the bed still, sat there and held her head in her hands. I saw her back shake once, I didn't wait for the second time before appearing by her side.She let me place my hand on her back and I rubbed slowly, lacking words to say in this moment to pacify her.She let out a shaky breath as my hand moved in slow, steady circles on her back. She didn't say anything, didn't look up—just sat there with her face buried in her palms, shoulders trembling like she was fighting every emotion from combusting out of her.I sat beside her on the bed, close enough that our knees brushed. She didn’t move away, but she also did not speak and it was driving me crazy. I called her name a couple of times but she said nothing to me for almost twenty minutes.“You lied to me,” she finally whispered, and her voice was so small it punched the air right out of

  • Beware Dear Ex, I’m Back For Revenge   110. CASTED!

    CLARA My eyes peeled open and I clutched my head in pain, groaning loudly. I was alone on the bed, and recalling the events before I passed out, I blew out a sigh of relief. Oh God, I was really so embarrassing. I had really passed out sucking dick… I wondered how terrified that must have gotten Lucas and how fast his dick must have grown limp, too. "Gah! I should really run away. Hide somewhere far away and never return until this scar is completely healed—" "Yeah, that's not happening." I jerked up with a start, slapping my hand over my mouth as my cheeks heated up even more. Lucas smirked, balancing a tray on his right hand. He moved towards me, dropping the tray on the bedside table. Then he leaned over me, taking my hand and moving it away from my mouth. I screwed my eyes shut as he planted a kiss on my lips, lingering for a few seconds before pulling away. My eyes flitted to the food on the tray—some scrambled eggs and toast, with a cup of hot, steaming te

    LUCASOne minute, her lips were wrapped around my dick and the next, there was a doctor checking her whilst she lay on my bed, unconscious.I barely had time to pull up my pants before I was calling the doctor. My private doctor. Thank God he lived close by and owed me more than a few favors.He asked what happened, I had to tell him. He was judging me with his eyes until now. I did not give a shit about what he thought, though. I just needed to know that she was fine."What's up?" I asked him after he sighed and moved away from her. He shrugged.“Nothing serious,” he said, finally. “She was stressed. Probably overwhelmed. It might be connected to her recent head injury—this kind of fatigue can come and go. She just needed to rest like the hospital advised. Let her sleep through it. No meds, no panic. Just rest.”I nodded whilst watching her lay there, completely still, the sheets barely moving with each breath. I stood at the edge of the room with my arms folded and a clenched jaw. I
