Isabelle’s POV

The night was quiet, save for the faint hum of the city beyond my windows.

I had just settled onto the couch, a glass of wine in hand, when the knock came.

No. Not a knock. A pound.

Sharp. Unrelenting.

I knew who it was before I even stood.

Damion.

I took a slow breath, forcing myself to stay calm. But my hands trembled slightly as I set my glass down and walked toward the door.

I should have ignored it. I should have let him stew in whatever storm was raging inside him.

But I didn’t.

Because I wanted to face him. I needed to.

I unlocked the door and pulled it open, coming face to face with the man who had once held my entire world in his hands—and shattered it without a second thought.

He looked…unhinged.

His tie was gone, the top buttons of his shirt undone. His hair was slightly disheveled, like he had run his hands through it too many times. But it was his eyes that stopped me.

Wild. Hungry. Desperate.

  • Chasing His Ex-Wife Back   Chapter 114

    Emily lay in bed, her mind still reeling from the events of the previous night. She heard the apartment door receive a knock, and Jackson's footsteps as he went to answer it. She remembered how he hadn't even come to check on her after their argument, but had still come into the bedroom to lie down, his presence feeling like an intrusion. And now, this morning, he was up early, already stirring and making noise. Emily folded herself into a ball on the bed, holding her stomach as a wave of discomfort washed over her. She felt a sense of unease, her body and mind still reeling from the tension and anger of the previous night. Just as she was starting to drift off into a restless sleep, she heard Jackson call her name from the sitting room. "Emily! Emily, can you come here for a minute?" Emily's heart sank. What did he want now? She didn't answer, hoping he would go away, but the calling continued, his voice growing louder and more insistent. With a sigh, she slowly got o

  • Chasing His Ex-Wife Back   Chapter 113

    Emily trudged into the apartment, exhausted from the long day at work. She fumbled for the light switch, expecting the familiar warmth and comfort of her home. But as the lights flickered, she was met with an eerie silence. The apartment was dark and still, and for a moment, she wondered if Jackson wasn't home. But then, she heard the unmistakable sound of chuckles coming from Amelia's room. Emily's heart skipped a beat as she walked towards the door, her mind racing with questions. What was Jackson doing there? And why were they in a room together? As she approached the door, she saw Jackson sitting on Amelia's bed, chatting with her. Emily's eyes scanned the room, and her heart sank as she saw the other person - a woman, no other than Amelia smiling heartily. Exhaustion vanished, replaced by a surge of adrenaline and a sense of unease. She felt like an intruder in her own home, and she didn't like it one bit. Emily entered the room, her eyes fixed on Jackson and Amelia. "W

    Suddenly, a gust of air rushed into the hotel room, whipping through the space like a mini whirlwind. The windows had been flung open, and a bright light poured in, illuminating Emily's face. She rolled on the bed, grunting softly, her eyes still closed. "Who opened the window?" she mumbled, her voice groggy and disoriented. But there was no reply. Emily's eyes fluttered open, and she sat up in a rush, her head spinning. She looked around the room, trying to shake off the haze of sleep and confusion. The bright light still shone in her face, making her squint. She raised a hand to shield her eyes, her gaze scanning the room frantically. Where was she? And how did he get here? The memories of the previous night came flooding back, and Emily's face flushed with embarrassment. She remembered the bar, the man in the suit, and the kiss... Oh, the kiss! Emily's heart raced as she looked around the room, hoping to see the man, but she was alone. In her head, Emily knew she wasn'

    The sound of bar cups hitting against each other was a rhythmic clinking, a metallic chime that filled the air as the bartender expertly mixed drinks with a flourish. The room was bathed in a warm, yellow light, like the glow of a sunset on a summer evening. The atmosphere was cozy and intimate, with the soft murmur of hushed conversations and the gentle hum of jazz music in the background. In the midst of this warm ambiance, a man sat on a stool, his suit impeccable and tailored to perfection. His features were chiseled and handsome, with piercing blue eyes that seemed to see right through you. His dark hair was slicked back, revealing a prominent forehead and a sharp jawline that seemed carved from granite. His lips were full and inviting, curled into a subtle smile as he sipped his drink with an air of sophistication. He sat with an ease that commanded attention, his broad shoulders relaxed and his eyes fixed on the bartender as he ordered another round. The barte

    Emily's voice was firm and resolute. "I can't allow this, Jackson. You need to send her back home." Jackson shook his head, his expression unyielding. "I can't do that, Emily. I can’t send her back." Amelia's face contorted in a pretence of distress, her voice trembling. "But I can't stay in my house alone, Jackson. I'm so scared and vulnerable." Emily's eyes flashed with anger. "You can't stay in my husband's house with me his wife, Amelia. That's not acceptable." Jackson's face hardened, his voice cold and detached. "If you can't accept it, Emily, then maybe you should leave." Emily's gaze locked onto Jackson, her eyes wide and disbelieving. She seemed to be searching for any sign of the man she thought she knew, but his expression remained unyielding. Jackson repeated himself, his voice firm and unrelenting. "If you can't accept it, Emily, then you should leave. It's as simple as that." Amelia's face contorted in a exaggerated display of distress, her voice tremblin

  • Chasing His Ex-Wife Back   Chapter 109

    Emily opened the front door, stepping into the quiet morning stillness of the house. She had returned alone, Lisa having already left for her own home. The silence was a stark contrast to the chaos of the hospital, and Emily felt a sense of relief wash over her as she closed the door behind her. She walked into the dining room, her eyes scanning the space, when she spotted Jackson sitting at the table, sipping a cup of coffee. As soon as he saw her, his face lit up with a warm smile. "Emily! You're home already?" he called out, his voice filled with enthusiasm. Emily's response was laced with skepticism. "I thought you didn't want me to come back home," she said, her eyes narrowing slightly. Jackson's smile faltered for a moment before he stood up, his chair scraping against the floor. "Why would you say that?" he asked, his voice filled with concern, as he walked towards her. Emily's defenses began to crumble as Jackson enveloped her in a tight hug. "I'm so glad you're h
