Dear Ex, I Am Not Your Backup Anymore Chapter 36
Ellie's P.O.V.As we walked out of the boutique, my gaze remained fixed on Zack's broad back.He was carrying ‘MY’ shopping bags, and that was something I had never expected in my wildest dreams.Growing up, I had always been the one carrying things. Then Jared came into my life. We had gone for shopping trips too, but I was always the one following him with bags and fabric rolls while he tended to his business calls.It never crossed my mind that someone could carry my burden without being asked.And Zack? Of all people?I glanced at him again.Just yesterday, I was convinced annoying me was his life's greatest purpose. But tonight, he bought me an entirely new wardrobe, paid for everything I needed for the project, and carried everything without uttering a single complaint. Unlike Jared, Zack didn’t ask me to manage the budget as the company's money wasn’t free.This gentleman was completely out of syllabus.“You've stopped walking.” Zack’s deep voice interrupted my thoughts. I blin
Dear Ex, I Am Not Your Backup Anymore Chapter 35
Ellie's P.O.V.The moment I stepped inside the grand boutique, I froze. The crystal chandeliers sparkled overhead. Elegant mannequins displayed the latest collection, each outfit looking as though it had walked straight out of a fashion magazine.I had admired this most luxurious store countless times from outside. But never once had I imagined walking in as a customer.Before I could admire another display, Zack's deep voice echoed through the boutique.“She needs a new wardrobe.”Every sales assistant immediately sprang into action.“Right away, Mr. Walton.”Excuse me?I gently pulled my wrist free before stepping closer.“I appreciate your concern.” My voice dropped to a whisper. “But I don’t need new clothes.”Zack made himself comfortable on a nearby sofa. Crossing one leg over the other, he looked at me calmly.“Now that's a lie.”He gestured toward me.“Your wardrobe looks like a sad graveyard.”I raised my brow.“My clothes aren't that bad. They're comfortable.”“They are depr

Ellie's P.O.V.“The mall?” I asked in confusion. “Why are we going to the mall?”Zack raised an eyebrow as if I'd asked why people breathed.“Dresses are made of fabric. And fabric doesn't grow inside an enclosed room, Ellie.”Goah. Why couldn't this man answer a question like a normal human being?“Fine.” I climbed toward the car and reached for the rear door. Zack’s voice made me pause.“Sit in the front.” He had already walked around to the driver's side. “I'm not your driver.”I looked at him in disbelief.“You're driving?”He frowned.“Why? You think I lack basic life skills?”“No.” I hurried around the car and climbed into the passenger seat. “It's just that you have a driver.”I searched for the correct words. “And people like you don't usually drive themselves. Like you didn’t…”The rest of the words died down in my head as Zack suddenly leaned across the center console, the scent of his expensive cologne cutting through stale car air.My heart skipped a beat.“W-What are you
Dear Ex, I Am Not Your Backup Anymore Chapter 33
Ellie's P.O.V. For the first time in what felt like forever, I was actually looking forward to the next three days. Just me, my sketchbook, and two dresses that could change everything. However, that dream lasted exactly three minutes. The servants barged into my room with a small office table along with a chair and files, arranging another setup in the empty corner. A moment later, Zack walked in without even asking permission. He placed his coffee mug on the newly arranged desk before taking a seat as though he owned the room. “Morning.” What? I looked between him and the office that had magically appeared inside my bedroom. “What exactly is going on?” He sat down and answered casually. “Temporary branch office.” I frowned. “You moved your office into my bedroom?” Zack opened his laptop. “Yes. This project has the highest priority.” I protested. “But this is my room.” “And this is my house. So get to work.” Well, that was true! Groaning inwardly, I sat down at my s

Ellie's P.O.V.“Are you alright?”The moment Zack doubled over coughing, I rushed to the sideboard. My fingers wrapped around the nearest glass of water before I hurried back.“Here. Drink this.”He accepted the glass without looking at me.After taking several slow sips, his coughing gradually subsided. He exhaled before placing the half-empty glass on the desk.Then he looked at me.“You were saying?”I straightened my shoulders. If Zack believed me, that was great. If he didn't, at least I had finally told the truth.“I worked for Walton Lux for two years,” I repeated, louder this time. “As I know their standards, I can design dresses that match them.”Then I braced myself for laughter or being dismissed for lying. I didn’t have any employment proof, so if he didn’t believe me, it would be only fair.However, Zack didn’t say anything immediately.He placed the glass down and strode toward me in three long steps. Before I could react, his hands landed firmly on my shoulders.His amb
Dear Ex, I Am Not Your Backup Anymore Chapter 31
Ellie's P.O.V.I stood frozen where I was while Zack glared at me from across the room. His chest rose and fell with restrained anger.“Why can't you just listen?”His voice raised an octave."I sent you to one damn board meeting, and you turned it into a battlefield."He threw the file on the table again.“Why? Who asked you to play the hero there?”My heart hammered like a frantic drum. I'd never seen this side of Zack before. He had teased me, mocked me, and even uttered cruel words. But he never raised his voice on me.My voice quivered.“I thought…”The words barely left my mouth before he cut me off.“You thought what?”He stepped around the desk, his polished shoes echoing against the wooden floor as he walked toward me.“That humiliating your ex in front of the board would solve everything? Or that one dramatic speech would magically fix years of problems?”His laugh was cold.“This isn't some high school argument, Ellie. This is business.”Zack’s words stung more than I wante

Zack’s P.O.V. The Hunt family sent a bride to the White mansion? That matter alone was suspicious! I leaned back in my chair, fingers resting lightly against the armchair as the city stretched beneath the glass office of my house. Quiet and controlled, unlike the situation of this arrang
Dear Ex, I Am Not Your Backup Anymore Chapter 5
Ellie’s P.O.V. Exhaling sharply, I turned. Zack stood a few steps away, one hand in his pocket, the other loosely holding his phone. There wasn’t a speck of concern on his face. His keen gaze moved over my face, scanning me, as he added casually. “I came to visit Dad. Didn’t realize I had wa

Ellie’s P.O.V. I didn’t sleep that night. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Zack's amber eyes and heard his mocking voice. I turned on my side, pressing my face into the pillow, forcing myself to think about someone else. My husband! Zackary... and then his son, Zack. A chill ran down my
Dear Ex, I Am Not Your Backup Anymore Chapter 3
Ellie’s P.O.V. The moment I looked up, my heart paused. That man was not old. He wasn’t weak, fragile, or anything like the rumors surrounding Zackary Walton. The young man standing near the door looked handsome in a way that felt illegal. He was tall, broad-shouldered, and dressed in a blac
