The Next Day

Janette lay awake in the dim room, her mind restless and heavy with fear. Sleep eluded her, chased away by the gnawing worry that Lucas wouldn’t find her in time. Her arms wrapped tightly around Ethan, who was burning with fever, his small body shaking with every breath.

Tears slipped down Janette’s cheeks as she rocked him gently, whispering desperate prayers into the stale air. Please let Lucas find us. Please keep my son safe.

She blamed herself for the nightmare they were living. How had she been so blind to Liam’s lies? How had she let him deceive her so thoroughly? Now, because of her mistakes, her precious boy was in danger, weak and vulnerable.

The door opened quietly. Sophia stepped inside, her face unreadable, followed by two women in plain but well-made dresses.

Janette’s heart clenched. “Please, Ethan needs a doctor,” she said, voice cracking. “He’s burning up.”

Sophia’s expression softened just a little. “The fever will pass once he takes his medicine. Y

  • Dear Ex-Wife, Let Us Restart   Chapter 104 ~ THE END

    FINAL CHAPTERA Week Later… CALIFORNIA The Blackwood mansion was glowing that night.The chandeliers were lit, soft music played in the background, and the halls were filled with laughter and joy. The celebration of the return of the real Blackwood heiress was in full swing. Guests from all over the country attended, and the media was buzzing with the news of the grand comeback of Janette Aveline Blackwood.Janette stood near the balcony in a flowing, elegant gown that shimmered under the lights. Her hair was swept back, her makeup soft and elegant. But what made her truly shine wasn’t the expensive dress but it was the glow of peace and pride on her face. She had been through hell and back, but she was standing tall now.Lucas stood beside her, his hand resting gently on her lower back. Every now and then, he’d lean in and whisper something in her ear, making her giggle. They looked like something out of a dream.Soon, the music stopped, and the host called everyone’s attention.“La

    103.Liam couldn’t believe it.He staggered backward, eyes wide and mouth slightly open, as Dean’s words echoed in his ears.Janette was the will.All this time—every manipulation, every plan, every lie—he had been chasing a ghost. He thought he was so close to taking over Blackwood Corp, only to find out he’d been grasping at shadows.“No…” he muttered again, staring at Janette like she was a stranger. “You’re lying. This can’t be…”But Dean said nothing more. His silence was confirmation enough.Liam stood frozen, trying to piece everything together, still holding Janette tightly, though his grip had weakened significantly.Janette noticed it.With her heart pounding and every ounce of strength she had left, she bent her knee and slammed it into Liam’s groin.Liam let out a choked cry and dropped like a stone, the gun clattering to the marble floor. Everyone moved at once, but Janette was faster.She dove for the gun and spun around, pointing it at the man seated beside Ethan, the o

    102.Liam’s eyes darted wildly as officers swarmed the room, but he wasn’t going down without a fight.“Don’t come any closer!” he shouted, pulling a gun from the inside of his jacket and wrapping his arm tightly around Janette’s waist. He pressed the cold muzzle to her temple. “One step, and I’ll shoot her!”Everyone froze.Lucas clenched his fists, his body shaking with rage. “Let her go, Liam.”Liam’s grip tightened. “Stay back!” he screamed, his hand trembling slightly. “I swear I’ll do it!”Janette winced, trying not to breathe too hard. Ethan whimpered from the corner, trying to rise but too weak to move. Rosa, Alan, and the others stood frozen, panic written across every face.Then, the doors creaked open again.Dean stepped into the hall, completely calm.Liam’s eyes widened. “You?”Dean took slow, deliberate steps forward. “Yes, me,” he said coolly. “I always show up when the show gets good.”“What…how…” Liam’s voice cracked. “You were in California!”Dean smirked. “And now I

    101.CALIFORNIAReynold tore through Dean’s office like a madman. Drawers were yanked open, cabinets emptied, papers thrown into the air. He flipped over books, scattered files across the floor, and rummaged through every inch of the mahogany desk.“The will has to be here,” he muttered, frustration dripping from every word. Sweat beaded on his forehead as he pulled out the bottom drawer and upturned its contents onto the floor. Nothing.Just then, his phone buzzed. He hissed under his breath when he saw Dean’s name flashing on the screen. With a curse, he silenced it. It buzzed again this time, a video call. Swearing again, Reynold dashed out of the office and into the hallway before answering.The screen lit up with Dean’s calm but steely expression.“What are you doing in my office, Reynold?” Dean asked, voice clipped and cold.Reynold forced a sheepish smile. “Oh, Dean. I came to check on you. You weren’t around, and I was a bit concerned.” He gave a fake chuckle. “Just thought ma

    099.Lucas paced the length of his study, the phone pressed to his ear as he listened to the automated voice again.“The number you are trying to reach is currently unavailable…”He ended the call with a growl, his jaw clenching. He immediately redialed again. Nothing.“Damn it!” he hissed, tossing the phone onto the desk. Something was wrong. Janette never ignored his calls, not for this long. Unable to sit still, he quickly called Dean.“Dean,” Lucas snapped the moment the line connected. “Is Janette with you?”“No,” Dean replied, sounding just as confused. “I thought she was with you.”Lucas’s eyes narrowed. “She left to pick Ethan up from school. That was hours ago. Her line’s dead.”Dean’s tone darkened. “That’s not like her.”Just then, the door to the study burst open. Rosa and Alan rushed in, their faces pale and anxious.“Lucas,” Rosa said, breathless, “we found Janette’s car. It was parked in the school’s parking lot; just sitting there. But… she wasn’t inside.”Lucas’s hear
