Ava took out her wallet and withdrew several crisp ten-pound notes, handing them to the young attendant at the entertainment zone. Her tone was calm but sincere.

“I’m terribly sorry — this is for any damage that might’ve been caused earlier. My son will apologise as well. Cello?”

The little boy, still smelling faintly of paint, bowed his head obediently. “Auntie, I’m sorry.”

The young woman’s eyes widened. “Oh—no, no, please don’t! It wasn’t his fault. Nothing’s broken, and the mess is already cleaned up…”

Everyone had seen how things started. It was clear the blond boy had been the troublemaker, and the woman and her son had been the ones wronged. The staff member looked genuinely flustered, her cheeks pink.

But Ava pressed the money into her hands regardless. “Keep it. Please just make sure everything’s tidied. Thank you — and sorry again for the trouble.”

  • Billionaire’s Virgin Ex-Wife   * 1st * Chapter 187 : Mummy, I’m very angry.

    The next morning dawned soft and silver, the faint drizzle outside blurring the city skyline.Since they were due to travel abroad soon, Ava had already asked for leave from Cello’s teacher — which meant, for once, the little one could sleep in without an alarm.She, however, had not slept well.All night her mind had twisted between thoughts of Alexander and the test — what it would reveal, or rather, what she would make it reveal. Her dreams were hazy, fragmented — flashes of blue eyes, laughter in the dark, the smell of rosemary that refused to fade.When she finally woke, the clock on her bedside table read nine. Her head felt heavy, her body wrapped in a dull ache of sleeplessness.The flat was quiet.Too quiet.Her first thought was that Cello was still asleep.Throwing off the covers, Ava padded barefoot through the soft carpet and crossed the living room, her robe swaying loosely at her knees. She pushed open her son’s bedroom door with a teasing smile already on her lips.“Li

    The moment the bathroom door closed behind her, Ava exhaled.The light above the mirror glowed softly, illuminating the marble sink and her reflection — composed, elegant, but with a calculating gleam in her eyes.She turned on the tap, letting the water run as a cover for sound, then reached into her coat pocket and drew out a small folding knife.Her hand lifted, scattering her dark hair over her shoulders like a silken curtain. With practiced precision, she pinched a small strand near the nape of her neck and snipped it clean. A few short cuts followed — swift, neat, deliberate.She laid the trimmed strands, follicles intact, onto a folded tissue. The length matched her son’s hair almost perfectly.That would do.She pocketed the tissue carefully, wrapped tight, and rinsed away the rest — the scattered strands swirling down the drain, vanishing without a trace. Then she washed her hands, adjusted her hair back into a tight knot, and regarded her reflection once more.Her eyes met h

    Michelle’s hand remained looped tightly around Ezra’s arm, refusing to let go. Her gaze followed Ava’s retreating figure until the woman disappeared beyond the glass doors of the lobby.Only then did she turn back, tugging gently at him with a honeyed smile. “Let’s go upstairs first. After that, you can show me the restaurant where you’ve been working.”Ezra’s jaw tightened. Watching the spot where Ava had vanished, he finally freed his arm from Michelle’s grasp. “How did you know I was working here?”Michelle’s chin lifted a little higher, pride softening her features. “Secret,” she said lightly, tapping a manicured finger to her lips.Ezra’s eyes darkened. He’d taken precautions, changed his name, and even avoided his usual circles — there was no reason she should have found him so easily.“Michelle,” he said evenly, “how exactly did you find me?”Her smile deepened, teasing. “Want to know?” She tilted her head toward the bellhop waiting with her luggage. “Take me to my room first,

    For a few seconds, silence stretched between them.Ava waited, growing impatient. “Hey,” she said sharply, “are you done yet?”The man blinked, his wandering thoughts snapping back into focus. He released a quiet breath, finishing the last two stubborn strands caught in the hinge of her glasses. Then, almost absently, his fingers drifted upward.Click.The soft sound of the hair clip unlatching broke the stillness.Ava froze, startled. Her hair fell free — a dark, silken curtain cascading down her back like ink poured into sunlight.The morning light streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows caught every strand, painting faint blue halos over the black sheen. As the smooth lengths brushed over his fingers — and against his cheek — Alexander stood there, momentarily robbed of speech.Her scent clung faintly to the air — warm skin and something clean, something hers.“What are you doing?” she demanded, frowning in irritation.He looked down at the strand of hair tangled around his

    “Tastes different from yesterday,” Alexander murmured, his tone light yet deliberate. “Did you change your lipstick?”Any sensible person would’ve caught the insinuation — a casual dagger dressed in silk. He was still referring to the kiss.Before Ava could retort, Ezra’s smooth voice chimed in. “Oh, that reminds me…” He pressed a finger thoughtfully to his chin. “Ayvee, is my coat still with you?”The name rolled off his tongue lightly, deliberately.Ava blinked — his coat?Even though they were standing in her office when he’d left it there, Ezra’s words carried a hint of easy familiarity that was impossible to ignore.And judging by the faint arch of his brow and the knowing glance he sent toward Alexander, it was entirely intentional.The air between the two men changed — thin, sharp, electric.Ezra looked almost casual, but Ava knew him well enough to see the flicker of restrained anger in his eyes. He had been careful around her for months — cautious, measured, never crossing a
