Kiara’s POV

Now that Leo is beginning to come too close to my daughter, I guess his mind is telling him that Sophia is his each time he sees her.

And honestly, I won't even blame him. The resemblance is obviously there. When I look at her atimes, I feel like I'm looking at a smaller version of Leo– same eyes, same smile. But he doesn't have any evidence yet and I won't let him have one.

I stood in the living room, tapping my foot against the floor, one hand on my waist, lost in thought. Thinking about how to make him seize seeing Sophia, before he kidnaps her too and goes for a DNA behind my back. I don't trust Leo, he can pull that type of stunt.

“Mommy!!”

That tiny, excited voice snapped me out of my thoughts. I looked down and saw Sophia running toward me, her tiny arms wrapping around my waist — that’s as far as her little hands could reach.

“Oh, my baby girl!” I lifted her up and kissed her cheeks, her giggle filling the air.

“Mummy was lonely without you,” I said, tickling her

  • Chasing back my ex-wife   Chapter 45

    Leo's Pov When I got to the venue with the range in me, Kiara was already seated, a bottle of water in front of her, as she awaited my arrival.I walked up slowly, hands shoved in my pockets. For a moment, I just stood there, watching her, wondering if she could really hide such truth from me. She had this slight flicker in her eyes when she finally looked up and saw me.But before I could stop myself, the words flew out.“Why didn’t you tell me that Sophia is my daughter?”She raised an eyebrow, clearly puzzled. Her reaction made me feel like Miriam didn't know what she was saying but I went ahead to push harder.“Is that why you called me out here?” I added, my voice sharper now. “To feed me more lies? To pretend like nothing happened while hiding a whole child from me all these years?”“Leo…”“What?” I cut her off, folding my arms. “You thought I wouldn’t find out?”She looked at me for a few seconds before saying “do you realize we’re in public?” She closed her eyes, breathed in

  • Chasing back my ex-wife   Chapter 44

    Leo's PovAs someone seeking Kiara's attention, I paused everything I was doing at the restaurant I was having my lunch. I grabbed my keys, tossed a few bills on the table, and walked out quickly. My thoughts were running wild.Has Miriam done something again? Or maybe… maybe Kiara was finally starting to soften up toward me?I was driving when the address of the place Kiara wanted me to come, blinked on my phone screen.Kiara calling me with all urgency seems weird. Thought she never wanted to see me anymore, so I wasn’t sure what to expect but I will find out.I turned down to the quiet street she’d sent me, one hand on the wheel, the other drumming restlessly on my thigh.Halfway there, my phone started ringing.The name on the screen made me pause. It was Miriam.I clenched my jaw. “Why the hell is she calling me now?” I muttered. “Thought she was better off sulking alone.”After a few rings, I picked up, mostly out of curiosity.“What do you want, Miriam?”“Leo…” Her voice came

  • Chasing back my ex-wife   Chapter 43

    Kiara’s POVI don't think I'm emotionally or mentally ready to make the decision of letting Leo know Sophia is his daughter.“No, I can’t,” I muttered under my breath, pacing inside the kitchen. “I nurtured her alone, therefore I’m having her alone.”Just saying it out loud made me feel a sting in my chest, but I meant every word.To distract myself, I scooped another set of the remaining cold ice cream I made earlier into two bowls — one for Sophia and one for me. She was curled up on the couch, completely glued to her favorite cartoon when I walked in.“I can see someone’s enjoying herself without me,” I teased, placing the bowl in front of her.But I got no response. Not even a glance. She was lost in her little world, giggling as her cartoon character tripped and fell. I smiled faintly.Just then, the nanny appeared in the setting room, holding my phone out. “Ma’am, your phone’s been ringing.”I blinked, realizing I didn’t even know where I left it. “Oh, right. Thanks.” I wiped my

    Kiara’s POV“Why are you looking so worked up?” I heard a voice behind me and stuttered.“Oh hey.” I turned around to meet Alex standing by the door, one hand in his pocket, the other holding the door knob. “Didn’t hear the door open.”“That’s because you were in deep thoughts,” he said, walking in slowly. “What is it? Work?”I scoffed. “I wish.”“Then what is it?”“Same old story. “The psycho ex who refuses to move on.”"Oh guess the car I passed was his right?”“Exactly. He just dropped me off.” i replied as I sank into the nearest chair, exhaling like I’d been holding my breath since he left.I was going to tell you,” I added, trying to sound casual. “We went for breakfast. So he dropped me off.”I searched Alex’s face for any reaction.“He just called now because he saw your car.”“Oh.” The word came out low and tight, his jaw flexing as he tried to hide his irritation. His hand rubbed the back of his neck before he gave a faint, forced smile.“Yes.” I waved my hand as if brushin

  • Chasing back my ex-wife   Chapter 40

    Leo's povAs I was heading back, I replayed our morning event in my head and smiled, “atleast am making moves, soon she will give in to my advances.” I muttered to myself.But then, I saw a black SUV car that looked familiar, passed us. Moving toward the same direction I just came out from. I sat up so fast, my driver glanced back at me.Looking at the black SUV car stop right in front of Kiara‘s gate and Alex came out. My jaw clenched. I wasn't wrong after all. “Doesn't he have a job?” I muttered, still frowning.“What did you say sir?” my driver asked.“I wasn’t talking to you,” I snapped. “Just drive.”My chest was beating so fast, my fists curled against my thighs. It took everything not to tell the driver to turn around.I started thinking about ways to distract them. Kiara is mine, I can't share her with anybody, not even that loser. After some time, I picked up my phone and called her.She picked up on the third ring. “Hello, sweetheart.” “What is it, Leo?” Her voice carri
