"I was in the neighborhood so I decided to come say hi to you and Ethan." he answered.

"How did you know I live here, Lucas? What the heck is wrong with you? Why won't you just leave me alone, huh?" she snapped, her expression hardening as a friend settled on her face.

Lucas sighed and ruffled his hair. "I'm sorry if I came here out of the blue, Janette. I just wanted to see my son-"

"Stop calling him your son!" she yelled, her fists clenched. "You lost that right when you almost killed me years ago."

"I had no idea you were bleeding for real, Janette," he said, his voice breaking. "I thought you were doing that to get my attention, but it's not an excuse and I'm sorry. I won't get tired of apologizing until you forgive me," his eyes turned misty and Janette could only stare at him with wide eyes. "You're free to do whatever you like with me. Punish me, insult me, beat me up, or even break me, but please," he looked into her glassy eyes. "Please, don't keep me from seeing my

    086.Rosa blinked at Janette. “Huh?” she asked, not sure where the question was coming from.“You used to tell me that Liam was up to no good, and that he wasn't what he portrayed himself to be. Tell me everything you know about him, please. I don't want to make a mistake I might regret.” she pleaded.Rosa was happy Janette was finally returning to her senses. “Well, I don't know much, but I already told you it's by instincts and my instincts are never wrong,” she said and Janette nodded. “The first time I got hired and met him, I thought he was actually a nice person, but I started discovering that he was too secretive. You were too comfortable around him to notice.”“Uh-huh.” Janette urged her to continue. She needed to know the truth today.Rosa licked her bottom lips. “Back at Chicago, I always see him making strange calls. From what I heard, I think he wants something from you, but I have no idea what it is. I don't know who he talks to during those times, but he keeps saying he

  • Dear Ex-Wife, Let Us Restart   Chapter 085 ~ DNA Test

    085.“You've got to be kidding me, right?” Lucas asked, his fists balled. What the heck was Bella up to this time?Bella scoffed with her arms folded. “I kid you not, Lucas. Dave is your son, and it's time you took responsibility for him.”Janette blinked at whatever was happening. Dave was Lucas' son? Why didn't Bella reveal it all along? Why now when she and Lucas had settled their differences? Janette couldn't help but suspect that something was fishy, but her heart was pounding in her chest at the possibility that this could actually be true. Besides, he was having an affair with Bella behind her back. They must have had done something once or twice.Lucas noticed that Janette was tensed and he stepped forward. “What stunt are you trying to pull, Bella? You and I know that we did nothing two years ago. I always turned down your advances. You can't just tell me you have my son. Look at the boy, are there any of my features? The boy doesn't look like me at all.”Bella sneered. “Oh,

    084.Next Day...“Well, you're good to go. Do not do anything stressful or strenuous for the meantime. You can rest for a week before returning to work.” Janette instructed and Lucas nodded with a smile.“Oh, thank you so much, Jane. You're a lifesaver.” Genevieve hugged her.Janette chuckled. “Don't thank me. Thank all the doctors and nurses who took care of him. If it weren't for Dr. Hill who found out there was poison, we wouldn't have known how to identify it.”Aunt Maryanne smiled. “Still, you contributed greatly. It's hard to see a CEO who's this dedicated and even does more work than her employees.”Janette blushed. “Oh, Auntie.” she smiled and her gaze with that of Lucas.Lucas was so tempted to hug her right now but there were nurses in the ward. After the nurses left, he wanted to do what he has been thinking of but...“Daddy!” An adorably cute voice sounded from the doorway. Sophia stood with Ethan beside her and Ethan rushed into Lucas's arms.Janette was shocked to see hi

    083.CALIFORNIA “Why don't you hand over the will to me? I can help you look after it. When you're all better, we can find a way to find the Blackwood heiress together.” Reynold suggested.Dean got down from the bed and walked toward the window. He gazed at the city and let out a sigh before turning to look at Reynold. “Before the Blackwood family was murdered twenty five years ago, Mr. Blackwood gave me the will to look after for him. He had already willed everything to his only child and entrusted the child to me. He made me promise never to give it to anyone, and I am still holding onto that promise today.”“I felt like he knew he was going to die that day, that's why he gave that child to me and made me promise never to let the will get in the wrong hands. Knowing the kind of danger she was, I put her in an orphanage and watched her. Then I got involved in an accident, only for me to wake up and discover that she had been adopted. I tried to follow it up and there was no trace. I

  • Dear Ex-Wife, Let Us Restart   Chapter 082 ~ Solid evidence

    082.“She really did?” Victor asked, his eyes wide in surprise. If what Liam said was true, then Janette was really in love with Lucas. Liam ruffled his hair aggressively, his face twisted into a snarl. “That Lucas! Gosh, if only that poison can just finish him off then I'll know I have nothing to worry about. Janette and I were perfectly fine before he came into the picture. I regret returning to New York. We would have just stayed in Chicago and I would have married her before we came here.”Victor licked his lower lip. “So what are you going to do now?”Liam steepled his fingers. “I didn't want to do this from the start, but I guess I have to. I already called her and asked her to go with the second plan, once that is established, I will know what to do next. We need to cause a rift between them immediately; something from the past that might trigger Janette and make her hate him.”“Wouldn't you be hurting her then?” Victor asked.Liam glared at him. “I think it's time you stopped

  • Dear Ex-Wife, Let Us Restart   Chapter 081 ~ Suspecting him

    081.Liam forced a smile at Janette and walked to hold her hand. “How long have you been here?” he asked, causing Janette to raise a brow at him.“I was here long enough to see you loathing that necklace,” she shifted her gaze to the locket in his hand. “Hope you aren't planning something bad.” she asked, starting to suspect that Liam might actually be behind what happened to Lucas. He's the only rival Lucas had that she knew about, but she didn't want to jump into conclusions. Besides, Liam was in California when it happened. He might be hot-tempered, but he wouldn't stoop that low.“Oh, the locket,” he said and handed it over to her. “Why would I plan something bad? I do admit that a second ago, I wanted to get rid of it, but I decided against it. Also, about when what you heard me saying, I was talking about work. The proposal we made to a tech company didn't go through, so I'm telling Victor to go with Plan B.”Janette watched him for a while. He looked so sincere, and she felt ba

  • Dear Ex-Wife, Let Us Restart   Chapter 080 ~ Plan B

    080.After work, Janette was about to leave her office when a knock came in. She hung her coat, picked up her bag and opened the door. One of the nurses held a big gift box in her hand. “This came in for you.” The nurse said and Janette raised an eyebrow. Could it be from Liam? Did he remember her birthday?With a sigh, she took it from the lady. “Who brought it?”“Mr. Lucas’s personality assistant.” The nurse replied and Janette’s face fell. It wasn’t from Liam after all. It was from Lucas, but how did he prepare this? He was currently unconscious. She gestured for the nurse to leave before dropping the gift box on her desk. She massaged her temple as she thought about it, but then it hit her. Lucas must have prepared it before the poisoning incident.With a sigh, she dropped her bag and reached into the big gift box, wondering what might be inside.Janette slowly pulled out a bundle wrapped in a blue velvet cloth. As she unwrapped it, her breath caught in her throat.Nestled insid

  • Dear Ex-Wife, Let Us Restart   Chapter 079 ~ What matters the most

    079.Janette dashed out of the lab and hurriedly dialed the number of Dr. Hill, one of the senior doctors in the hospital. She paced the hallway as she waited for the call to connect.“Dr. Hill? It's Janette. I have a critical situation in the lab. I found cicutoxin in Lucas's system, the one who got a peanut butter allergic reaction.”“Cicutoxin? That's impossible!” Dr. Hill exclaimed. “Are you sure?”“Of course I’m sure, Dr. Hill. I found the toxin in his blood sample.”Dr. Hill sucked in a breath. “This is grave. We need to get Lucas to the ICU immediately. Cicutoxin is deadly, and we need to flush out any remaining poison in his system.”“Yes. I already asked them to do that. I’m on my way to the ICU right now.” Janette replied, her voice tense with urgency.“Tell them to prepare the IV immediately and start pumping adrenaline and atropine into his system. We need to stabilize him as quickly as possible,” Dr. Hill said, his voice serious and commanding.Her voice was low and stead

  • Dear Ex-Wife, Let Us Restart   Chapter 078 ~ Poison

    078.GEOFFREY CORP…“You said all those words to her?” Victor was shocked as he looked at Liam, who had his arms folded, and his back leaned on the chair in front of his desk.Liam pinched the bridge of his nose, sighing heavily. “I got so mad that I just had to say it.”“But you overreacted and went too far if you really said all these things you’re telling me right now,” Liam placed his palm on his forehead. “I already apologized to her and she forgives me. It might GG’s been harsh but at least it brought her back to her senses. I just need to do something to keep her then I propose.”Victor blinked. “Hope you aren’t planning to propose immediately? She might have forgiven you, but you need to give her some time to calm down and process her thoughts. Dropping a proposal on her can seem selfish of you.”Liam’s eyes blazed with defiance. “I know that, Victor. But this is more than just about winning her. It's about showing her that she belongs with me, that she's safe with me. She do
