CORRIE

I didn't like the idea of leaving Mimi alone with Emmette. I trust Emmette but I don't trust Mimi one bit and slowly regret cuts me with each strike of guilt.

Emery's hand was in mine as she happily jumped up and down humming a tune. Her grandmother was holding her other hand as we tried to keep her safe.

"Corrie." Arielle called out to me, pulling me out of my train of thought.

"Hmm" I muttered.

"How old are you?" She asked. It wasn't odd that she wanted to know my age but it was quite

  • Dear Ex Husband, I'll Make You Wish You Were Dead   190: The Goodwin Manor

    CORRIE "I refused, I told her I couldn't do it. Then she had an idea. Why not kidnap the both of you and traffic you both. I wasn't on board but she doubled the money. I couldn't resist. I mean I was just a lowly nanny. You would have taken the money if it was you." She said like that made any sense and slowly I began to understand why Emmette doesn't like his mother."I agreed… but then I had a plan," I continued. "Why not have you both trafficked, then come back for you afterwards and pass myself off as a hero who ‘rescued’ you? That way, I could return the both of you and not only get money from Darla, but your father would also pay me for bringing you back.""My plan was perfect, it was supposed to go exactly as I intended," Arielle continued. "But the organisation that trafficked you both erased your memories. Somehow, Emerald managed to escape and was found by the authorities, but you…" she paused briefly, her voice tightening, "you were declared dead. Your body was unrecognisa

  • Dear Ex Husband, I'll Make You Wish You Were Dead   189: Darla

    CORRIE It’s awkward. The tension in the room is so thick you could almost choke on it. I feel like I’m walking on eggshells between Emmette and his mother. We all came to a nearby restaurant, and neither of them has said a word since. Even when the waiter delivered our food, it did nothing to break the silence.I glance at Emmette and catch his still angry expression, then over to his mother, her face is tight with anxiety.How did I get here? What the hell am I even doing here? It’s obvious these two have nothing to say to each other… or maybe one of them does, and the other just doesn’t want to hear about it."So…" I say, picking up my glass of juice. "Umm… Mrs. Nash…"Arielle lets out a small chuckle and reaches for her own glass. "Arielle," she corrects gently.I exhale in relief. That already makes things slightly easier."Yes, but I’d rather call you ma’am, if that’s okay with you," I add politely."You don’t have to call her anything," Emmette cuts in sharply, his voice slicin

  • Dear Ex Husband, I'll Make You Wish You Were Dead   188: My mother

    CORRIE "So that's it. That was the deal I made with Kennedy." I finished my story to Hatty as she froze in her spot, her expression frozen, and I searched her face, waiting for her to say something, at least anything, but she was still frozen in thought. I reached out to Hatty, but she immediately got up with tears in her eyes, biting down on her knuckles."Hatty, I'm sorry..." I apologized again, getting up."How long have you been keeping this to yourself?" Hatty walked over to me, her hands hesitating to hold me, till she grabbed hold of my hands. "Corrie, how could you keep this to yourself for this long?" she said, finally pulling me into a hug, and I felt a wave of relief wash over me. My hands hesitated to wrap around her. It felt like I didn't deserve it until Hatty hugged me tighter, as if telling me it was okay, that I was allowed to hug her. I wrapped my arms around her as we both cried as loudly as we could till we finally disengaged from the hug and sat down right next t

  • Dear Ex Husband, I'll Make You Wish You Were Dead   187: An obvious lie

    MIMI I looked over to Melanie. "Is Devon aware you didn't go through with the abortion." I said as she nodded."Then why are here with me instead of him." I tossed the document and the picture at her."He's the one who got you pregnant dammit. Why do I have to get involved?" I hissed in rage."Because I knew you would listen. When I told Devon that I couldn't go through with the abortion. He said he would not be in the child's life. I accepted at but at least, he should have a bit of modesty and pay child support." "Modesty?" I laughed as her eyes trailed to me."That's rich coming from you. He paid you to terminate it. He even paid you to keep quiet and didn't do any of that. You don't fucking call the shots on how he should be modest." I hissed and I couldn't see the hurt in her eyes as tears sparkles on them."Either way. I need money." That's it, Instead of beating around the bush, she should have said this from the begining."Really?" I folded my arms. "Maybe you should have be

  • Dear Ex Husband, I'll Make You Wish You Were Dead   186: Melanie

    MIMII held a glass on my hand as I watched. Oh I didn't know her name."What's your name?" I asked as she paused midway from chugging her drink like the first one."Melanie." She said as my eyes looked down at my glass. That name was familiar, yes, it rings a bell somewhere. My eyes trailed back to her to see that she was midway chugging the glass of wine till it was finished. She bent over to the table picking another biscuit, what was it, like the fifth one. This girl clearly had no class or decorum so I wonder what actually we could talk about and how she could dare threaten Herod's position as heir?I dropped my glass on the stool by my side, I was ready to interrogate. I got up, picked up the bottle on the table and poured her another glass."Have another." I said with a smile as she nodded taking another biscuit but this time I sat down next to her after dropping the bottle back on the table."Thank you Mrs Remington." She said as I smile and nodded while she chugged the glass

  • Dear Ex Husband, I'll Make You Wish You Were Dead   185: Demand my attention

    MIMI I got down from my car, shutting the door behind me with an evident frown on my face. I held my phone in my hands, going through the latest news that popped on my notifications. Kennedy's engagement with Lilly. I gripped tightly to my phone with gritted teeths. Everything was already shitty from the start and now this? Those Goodwin siblings are both out to get me. They both seem to be living fine and being happy but here I was, thinking of how to get three hundred million.I walked towards the front door as I let myself in, shoving my phone in my bag without as much looking over at the living room. "Sylvie." I screamed. "Devon is at the hospital, I need you to..." I looked up to see a face that felt familiar but wasn't Sylvie. I paused, taken aback."Do I know you?" I asked looking at her casual outfit, she wasn't in uniform so she didn't work for me. "Nevermind." I cut her off before she could answer."If you're here to apply for a position, again I'm not hiring. I'll have S

    CORRIE"But I was on birth control, I took a plan b. How could I get pregnant?" I raised my voice in fear. How did I get to this point? I should have listened to Hatty, I should have gotten tested."The good news is you don't have AIDS or any STI's which is surprising to hear from Devon." She mutte

  • Dear Ex Husband, I'll Make You Wish You Were Dead   023: I've been framed

    CORRIE I dragged my feet to my apartment. With all that's going on, I couldn't stop thinking about where the pregnancy test came from. My heart skipped a beat, wondering if it was from Mimi, but it didn’t make sense—it was out in the study room. Since I didn’t even put it there, who did? I straigh

    MIMI"Hi Sarah." I greeted my niece as she just nodded and forced a smile. She didn't say anything else. I watched her from the rearview mirror going through her phone. I shrugged, the only reason I was picking her up was because Lilly insisted I do. With Devon against me, I need all the allies I c

    CORRIE Ba-thump. Ba-thump. Ba-thump. The sound of my heartbeat pounded in my ears. My chest tightened as my breath hitched, and I struggled to calm the storm within me. Emmette leaned back slightly, his eyes fixed on my face, and I felt the weight of his gaze. My nerves were a mess and all I coul
