I haven’t heard from Conall since he stormed out of my place this morning. I feel guilty for how I acted. He has helped me so much. Conall is the last person who deserves my bitchiness. It has crossed my mind many times throughout the day to reach out to him, but something has been holding me back. I wouldn’t blame him if he wants nothing to do with me or the arrangement any longer.

It is after midnight, too late to reach out now. I came to bed two hours ago, but have spent all my time t

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

    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

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

    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

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

    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

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

    SerenaI am enjoying a coffee and reading when Conall comes running in, as if he is on a mission. What has gotten him so worked up?“Conall, are you okay? Did something happen?”“I need my laptop.”There is something going on because he always says hello with a kiss before doing anything else. He doesn’t seem stressed. It is something else. He rushes to his bedroom before I have a chance to say another word. I sit, confused and wait for his return to find out what is going on. A moment later, he comes rushing back through and takes a seat next to me, setting up his laptop, without saying another word.“Conall, what is going on?”“I will tell you in a second. I need to check this first before I get my hopes up.” He doesn’t even look at me as he answers, something else he never does. He always makes eye contact when he talks to me.I notice a flash drive in his hand. Conall’s leg bounces up and down, anxious to see whatever is on it. I let him focus because, by the sounds of it, he expe

    ConallI am sitting in my office, busy, trying to finish up for the day. I don’t want another late night. I am eager to get home to Serena, who is waiting for me at mine. I should be done soon. A knock at my office door makes me look up, and the last person I expected to see is standing there. Felicty! What the hell is she doing here? I cautiously call for her to come in. She seems hesitant, but opens the door and comes in, slowly walking towards my desk. She seems nervous, worried even, which is confusing me even more.“Felicity, what are you doing here?” I ask with a raised brow.Has Henry pulled her into some part of his plan? Sighing, she takes a seat on the other side of my desk, eyes down. “I need to talk to you, it is important, but no one can know my reason for being here.”If she doesn’t want anyone to see her here, then why come to my office, where most people know who she is?“Has Henry sent you? Is this some part of the plan?”She lifts her head to look at me and shakes he

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Your Enemy Wants Me    Chapter Seventy-Eight

    SerenaI have told Conall I have gone out to deal with some business. Just not the business he thinks. I have a meeting with a PI to help me get the proof I need to determine who is responsible for the attack. I am paying him a fortune because he goes above and beyond and doesn’t do everything exactly by the book when he is on a case, and that is what I need. I have the details of Henry and his father's banks, their addresses and everything else I could get my hands on without anyone knowing what I was doing. He is going to hack into all the security in the surrounding area, too. Yes, I know the police are on it, but in case they don’t do anything or find what they need, this is another option. I hate lying to Conall about it, but if I told him what I planned on doing, he wouldn’t allow it. He would try to talk me out of it. I still plan to pay Henry and his father a visit to see if they will admit to anything, but that won’t be an easy thing, so for now, I can only hope the PI can ge

    SerenaI woke a little while ago. Conall is still asleep next to me. His alarm will go off soon, but I have a better way to wake him. One thing I am sure he would appreciate more. I smirk, carefully climbing out of bed and going to use the bathroom, freshening myself up before I slip back into bed.

Sitting up, I pull it together and run my fingers through my messy hair. My heart broke for her last night. I knew it was too much f

Sighing, I rest my hand on my stomach and close my eyes, my mind drifting back to the horrible day.~~~~~~They rushed

    ConallI am eager to finish and go to Serena’s place to see what happened today. I did offer to go with her. It was probably a good thing she said no because I had meetings outside of the office. I haven’t had the pleasure of running into Henry today, thank God. He better not have acted like an ass
