Conall

I am bored out of my mind. I hate shopping, and Serena has been dragging me around the stores for three hours. Three damn hours! I understand she wants the perfect outfit for tomorrow, but she has tried many power suits on that have been perfect. What do I know, though? I only have myself to blame for agreeing to come with her. I didn’t want her to go alone.

I am sitting on a seat, and Serena is in the changing room, trying on more clothes. I can’t even occupy myself with my cell because

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Your Enemy Wants Me    Chapter Eighty-Six

    SerenaConall has officially moved in; all his things are here. It only took a few days since he wasn’t working. I went out to deal with some things, and when I returned a few hours later, the rest of his belongings had arrived. He hired a company to help him. Although he had to put a lot in storage, he seemed okay with that. We plan to take everything out before we leave for a fresh start and find a bigger place where it all fits. Things have been quiet; we’ve heard nothing from Henry or the police. Thankfully, we keep busy with other things. Right now, I am enjoying peach iced tea while Conall steps out to pick up lunch. I love having him around, but a half hour of "me" time is welcome. After nearly a year alone, I’m still adjusting to someone being around. I close my eyes, rest my head against the sofa, and take in the silence. Suddenly, my cell rings and shatters the calm. With a groan, I glance down at a number I don’t recognise. I could ignore it, but it might be business, so I

    Conall“What are you going to do with this place?” Serena asks as we pack up some of my things.I will either sell or lease it. I need to review the market and determine the best course.I am only packing what we can fit in the cars today. I can get the rest of my things at some point because it will take a while to get this place rented or sold. The place isn’t cheap, and the economy isn’t at its best right now.“Are you sure you don’t want to hold onto it in case you end up hating living with me?” There is a nervousness in her voice when she asks.I glance up at her from the floor where I am packing up some boxes. “That won’t happen, baby girl.”I know it won’t. I have faith that it will work out for us.“You sound certain. I can be a stubborn jackass at times.”I raise my brow at her. “Something I am already familiar with. Trust me, it will work. Have a little faith, sweetness.”Serena nods and smiles. “You should rent, maybe short term, it would work better for you in the long run

    SerenaWe finally heard, and surprisingly, they are doing something about the assault on Conall. For everything else, since it involves federal matters, the case is being handed over to the FBI. They haven’t told us much, but just enough to know that something is getting done. It is now a waiting game. It could take months, but the best thing for us to do is get on with our lives and hope they don’t find out it was us and try to cause more trouble. If they do, we will fight back harder, and it will just give us more evidence to hand over to them.It has been a stressful week, but we have taken a step in the right direction. The assault on Conall should be dealt with more quickly than everything else, since they have everything they need. I still can’t help but worry that it won’t work out how we want it to, but we will need to find that out and try not to overthink it all.I arrive at my apartment, where for the first time in weeks we will be staying tonight. Conall should be here soo

    ConallI feel anxious as I meet my mom for coffee. She’s unaware of what’s happening. I haven’t told her yet, but I plan to today. I’m uncertain how she’ll respond. I hope she understands and supports my choice. The main update is that we submitted everything, but haven’t received any feedback. Tomorrow, we’ll return to the station to speak in person. We’ve given them enough time. A two-minute call would have sufficed for an update, but nothing came. I can’t tell if that’s positive or negative. We’ll know tomorrow.I step into the cafe, breathe deeply, and search for my mom. I see her waiting. Serena isn’t here today. Her presence would calm me, but I must face this alone. I put on my best smile and approach the table. Mom stands to hug me. I return the hug, holding tighter and longer than usual. I am a mama’s boy, and I admit it. No matter how old you get, parents provide comfort that no one else can. Mom doesn’t mind. I release her after a moment, and we sit to order drinks.“Conall

    SerenaIt has been a few days, but we haven’t heard a thing. If we still haven’t heard from anyone within the next couple of days, I will be paying them a visit to see what is going on. Clearly, they must still be working on things because we would have heard by now if anyone had been taken in or arrested. It would have been all over the news or one of them would have paid us a visit. None of that has happened. We are just going about our days normally the best we can. I still have no idea if Felicty has left Henry or not. Basically, we are no further along as of yet. We are trying not to let it gets to us, but sometimes that is easier said than done. Conall has been burying himself in work, that is his way of dealing with it. I am been doing the same, but it means we aren’t getting as much together, but it is a process and that is fine.I just finished with my day and heading to Conall’s office. I want to make sure he doesn’t work late into the night. I want him to come home, well, t

    ConallI sigh as we leave the police station. It is going to be a waiting game now to see what happens. We gave them everything. Told them everything, and now we can’t do anything else until they take the next step. If they take the next step. I have no idea who they have in their pocket, but it doesn’t matter either way because if they don’t do something about it, we will find someone else who will.“I know it is a stressful time, my love, but we have done everything we can, and now we just need to wait. Let’s go get some food and coffee, try not to think about it too much.” Serena says softly, resting her hand on the small of my back.I turn to her. “Yes, good idea. Thank you for coming with me.” I reply and reach in, kissing her softly.“I will always be here for you, Conall, in the same way you have been there for me. We are in this together, no matter what happens. I promise.”“Always.”The sooner all of this is over, the better. We can get on with our lives, maybe move away and

    Conall I haven’t moved an inch since Serena fell asleep. I don’t want to disturb her. I have been staring at the ceiling or the bedroom door for the last forty minutes. I have been pulled back. I am not surprised. There is a reason I haven’t seen Serena recently, because I knew the second I did, t

    Serena The second I wake, I reach for Conall, but he isn’t there. I expected him still to be here, but I shouldn’t be surprised that he has left, considering I am not giving him what he wants or needs. I sigh and run my fingers through my hair, disappointed. I hoped he would have stuck around. Ins

I am so thankful she doesn’t hate me because I was married into that horrible family for a long time. Conall’s mom is the sweetest, and that makes me hate them even more for wh

Does your mother really want to be around me since I was part of the family that ruined her life for a long time?” Serena asks.I told my mom that I had been spending a lot of time with Serena.
