Leo’s pov

I went back to my office after Kiara left, sank back into my office seat, loosened my tie, and let out a long breath. The weight on my chest was heavier than usual and it wasn't really about the project, rather it was Kiara that occupied my thoughts.

I leaned back in my seat, faced my head to the ceiling and then I shut my eyes closed. memories of her flooding back into my mind. Her laughter at my jokes, the many lazy Sundays she would curl up beside me, the way she used to look at me as though I was her entire world. How had I allowed that to slip away?

I opened my eyes and glanced through the window, Where I had a clear view of her office. She was pacing inside, with her phone pressed to her ear, having an animated conversation. She was so engrossed in the conversation.

What if she was talking with Alex? The thought struck me.

The thought of Alex made my jaw clenched. Seeing them together that very day, the way she laughed with him and hugged him so tight. It felt like a

  • Chasing back my ex-wife   Chapter 37

    Kiara's POVMy phone buzzed on the bedside drawer. I woke up feeling grumpy, stretched my body and pushed up my eye mask to check who was calling. It was Leo. I tried to ignore the call and get back to sleep, so he would probably get the message and stop calling, but my phone kept buzzing. “What is it this early morning!?” I shouted, finally accepting the call."Sweetheart it's 8:15am, it's no longer early.” Leo said. “And I'm here to take you out for breakfast."I sat up, blinking. “You’re what? Where exactly?”"I'm outside your house baby.”I stood up with speed and dash to my window to know if he was actually serious. I opened the curtain and my jaw dropped.There he was, leaning casually against his black car, dressed like some kind of runway model. Aviator sunglasses. Crisp white shirt. That damn charming aura.How did he find me again?My heart pounded as realization hit me. First, it was him going to Sophia’s school… Now our house? Was he spying on us? I think it's high tim

  • Chasing back my ex-wife   Chapter 36

    Kiara’s PovI shut my laptop with a heavy sigh and leaned back into the couch. The glow from the sun filtered through the curtains, casting faint patterns on the floor. It was 2:15pm, but I already felt like I had lived through an entire week. My luxury office proposal still needed revisions before the presentation and one particular indecisive client had spent nearly an hour contemplating over two wallpaper samples that looked exactly the same to anyone with sane eyes.The door opened and I heard Sophia's voice. She ran towards me.“Mommy! Mommy!”I opened my eyes just to see Sophia rush into the living room, a wide grin stretched across her face and her curls bouncing wildly.“What’s all this?” I asked as she dropped a large gift bag on the table. It was surprisingly heavy.She beamed. “Gifts!”I sat up. “Gifts?”She nodded, eyes glittering with excitement. “It was a birthday today! One of my friends. And there were snacks and toys and balloons and... look!” She pulled out her Bar

    Leo's POV"Urrggh, yes baby, hit me harder," Kiara moaned, her voice full of longing and desire. I gripped her hair tighter, pounding her from behind, which was her favorite style. The way she arched her back drove me wild. I could feel her trembling under me. I flipped her onto her back, the mattress creaking beneath us, and pushed her deeper into the bed. Her skin glistened with sweat as I lowered my mouth to her sweet spot, tasting the essence of her. "Fuck!" she screamed, hands tangled in my hair, the other clawing the bed sheet.I licked my way up her body, slowly, savoring every inch of her skin, until I hovered above her lips, about to kiss her…"Grrrrrr!"The shrill sound of my alarm shattered everything."Shit!" I groaned, slamming the stop button and throwing the pillow over my head. The room was still, but my body burned with frustration. It was 8:00 a.m. I looked under the duvet, damn, I was fucking hard. Really hard.I closed my eyes, trying to sink back into the dream

  • Chasing back my ex-wife   Chapter 34

    Kiara’s POVI didn’t speak a word on the drive back.The man Leo assigned to drop me off kept glancing at me through the rearview mirror, as if expecting me to cry, but I sat still. Deep down, I was breaking. My mind thought about everything that happened.When the car pulled up at my apartment, I opened the door slowly. My feet touched the floor like they carried bricks. I reached the door and knocked, my hands trembling.“Good evening ma.” The nanny greeted me with a look of concern on her face because of the way I looked with my tousled hair.My mouth was even heavy to respond to her. I just moved straight to the stairs, dragging the weight of everything Leo had ever done to me with every step.The moment I got to my room, I locked the door, pulled the curtains shut, and sank to the floor. The silence felt suffocating.I felt like screaming so loud to feel better. Tears were already rolling down my cheeks.I cried like a child. How could he still think that he had a right over me?

  • Chasing back my ex-wife   Chapter 33

    Leo’s POVI just couldn’t watch her leave just like that. I really love her. Yes, I said it. I love Kiara, and I’ve never stopped loving her.Watching her drive off, just feels like I've lost her forever, since the project is over.I know it sounds crazy, but I needed to see her again. Talk to her. Hold her. Just to be close.So I sent a few of my boys to bring her to me.Not to hurt her, I can't do such. I gave them strict instructions. “No harm must come to her. Not even a scratch.”I just wanted to spend time with her. Was that really too much to ask?The moment they brought her in and they removed the blindfold, her eyes landed on me. You could see the shock and disappointment on her face.“Welcome, darling,” I said, smiling, even though nothing was funny from her looks and my heart was racing.She took a shaky step forward, her voice trembling. “Leo, really? You think this is funny? What’s all this about? What have I ever done to deserve this kind of maltreatment from you?” She

  • Chasing back my ex-wife   Chapter 32

    Kiara’s POVThe restaurant Evergreen’s CEO chose was the definition of luxury, dimmed chandeliers, soft music echoing through the air, and waiters dressed like they’d stepped out of a Vogue editorial. It was the kind of place where deals were sealed.I arrived before Leo. As usual, though I like being early. Tonight wasn’t just about celebrating a job well done. It was about turning a new chapter for Kiara's interiors.Mr. Dominic Hughes, CEO of Evergreen, stood the moment he saw me. He is tall, with silver hair, in his mid 50s . “Kiara! You look stunning,” he said, smiling warmly and gesturing for the waiter to pull out a chair for me." You're even more elegant than your designs.” he added. I smiled politely.I wore a sleeveless black dress, elegant but modest, paired with nude heels. Nothing flashy though.“Thank you, sir. I’m glad you could make time to come.”“I should be the one thanking you. You and your team outdid yourselves. Your work at Evergreen was exceptional,” Dominic
