Broke Ex Wants Me Back After I Marry Rich Chapter 8
I stumbled back two steps. My back slammed hard against the cold wall, which was the only thing keeping me from collapsing to the floor. A tight, cramping pain seized my lower abdomen."Audrey!"A hoarse, all-too-familiar voice suddenly called out, carrying a desperate, almost manic excitement.I struggled to bring my vision back into focus. When I jerked my head up, I found myself staring straight into a pair of obsessive eyes.Those eyes were bloodshot, with dirty, clouded whites, yet the pupils shone with an eerie brightness that sent a chill down my spine.It was Edward.He was standing only a few steps away. I had no idea when he had gotten there.His face was overgrown with unkempt stubble, and his once-handsome features were now sunken and hollow. His clothes were wrinkled beyond recognition, as if he had been living in them for days.I instinctively tried to pull back, but Edward suddenly lunged toward me.Before the bodyguards or I could move, he closed the distance w

His knees crashed against the stone floor with a heavy thud that sounded painful even to hear, yet he seemed completely numb to it.He looked up at me and begged, "I used every connection I had just to get the hospital to call you. I only wanted a chance to see you. Please, just give me a few minutes. That's all I ask. I just want to tell you a few things."His voice thickened with emotion, and his eyes grew red.I looked down at the man I had once loved for so many years, now kneeling before me like a homeless person who had nowhere left to go.My heart didn't waver in the slightest. All I felt was a deep, overwhelming sense of absurdity.The spot on my wrist where he had grabbed me still felt sticky and unpleasant.I wiped it off in silence.Without any signal from me, the bodyguards just held their defensive stance, keeping their eyes locked on Edward.Suddenly, Edward shuffled forward on his knees and grabbed the hem of my pants tightly.He held on so hard that his knuckle

Scott didn't spare either of them another glance, as if looking at them any longer would stain his eyes.He wrapped an arm carefully around my shoulders, holding me in a protective embrace as he guided me toward the exit."Audrey!"Behind us, Edward's desperate scream suddenly rang out.His voice was filled with panic and regret that had come far too late."I was wrong! I know I was wrong! Don't let them take me away!"Fear warped his voice until it broke into sobs.Scott never slowed his steps, nor did he spare him even a glance.His thin lips parted slightly, and the words that left him carried a lazy, cruel edge."Someone as worthless as you has no right to utter my wife's name."Then he paused briefly and issued a final warning. "If I hear you utter her name again, that tongue of yours won't be staying where it is."Behind us, Edward's wails and frantic pleas ceased mid-breath, as if an unseen hand had clamped shut his throat and snuffed out the sound.Silence followe

Edward instinctively stepped forward, trying to forcibly drag me back to his side.Scott towered over him, looking down with a gaze so cold it could freeze.Edward froze on the spot as if something had pinned him in place.Then rage surged back up his chest, burning his eyes red.He pointed at me and snapped, "Say something. Whose wife are you? Stop putting on this act! You—""Shut up."Scott cut him off with just two words. Though he didn't raise his voice, it carried a dominance that allowed no objection.Edward choked on his own words. Frustration swelled in his chest, flushing his face a deep, angry red.The moment I saw Scott, the tension that had been strangling me finally snapped.The disgust and humiliation I had been holding down broke loose all at once.Tears spilled down my cheeks, blurring everything around me.I reached out and firmly grasped Scott's warm hand.The icy chill radiating from Scott vanished in an instant.He lowered his head and gently wiped the

Edward suddenly burst into laughter as if he had just heard the most ridiculous joke in the world. The shock on his face was instantly replaced by pure mockery.He laughed and disdainfully said, "It's been years, and you're still the same. The only thing that's gotten better is your ability to make things up. Scott Miller's wife? Why don't you just say you're the Queen?"He laughed loudly and exaggeratedly, but his eyes were as cold as blades. "Do you honestly expect me to believe that Scott Miller would choose a woman I already discarded and make her his wife? Come on. If you're going to lie, at least try to make it convincing."Every word he said felt like a kick, driving me further into the dirt beneath him.Lily quickly capitalized on the moment, adding her voice to his. "Audrey, I know you're trying to provoke us, but you can't just make things up like this…"She paused, then continued, "When I was in Marinova, I heard the wealthy ladies there talk about Mr. Miller's myster

The call connected almost instantly."Mrs. Miller."The man on the line was the butler, Arthur Sterling. His respectful voice came clearly through the phone.I calmly said, "Arthur, I'm at the cafe in the downtown mall. There's a man and a woman here harassing me. Please send the villa's bodyguards to pick me up right away."Edward's expression darkened completely.The satisfaction in Lily's eyes disappeared instantly, giving way to jealousy she could not hide."Audrey!" Edward roared, staring at me with bloodshot eyes."It's only been three years, and you've turned playing pretend into a fine art. You're getting scarily good at it!"He stepped closer, pressing toward me again. "Forgive me, but wasn't it you who declared you would wed no one but me? After hearing about Lily's pregnancy, you immediately got yourself pregnant with another man's baby?"He scoffed, feeling absolutely certain of himself. "Do you think spinning these lies and putting on this show is actually going t
