ATHENA

I rush out as the wind slaps me on my face. Everything comes crashing down, and I feel my heart pump even faster.

“How'd it go? Does he have it?” Zayan asks when I enter the car.

“Even if he does, he wouldn't admit it.” I grind out as I hold back my tears.

He betrayed me.

My hands shake as I look at the photos on my phone. They're from the security footage, and in it is Ryan. Walking into my apartment empty-handed and walking out with a damn box.

Anger surges through me in ways I didn't know was possible. How dare he do this to me?

What did you expect, Athena? That the man had fallen head over heels for you?

A little voice taunts me in the worst way possible.

The car suddenly feels too small, and I feel like I can't breathe.

“You don't have to be strong with me, Athena. You can cry if you want to. You know I'm here for you.” Zayan says, but it does nothing to soothe my aching heart.

“Thank you for being here. Without your connection, I wouldn't have gotten that footage.”

Second one for today.

Ako it oh
Very disappointed with Athena! I thought she is smart! Does she know what a HIPPA is as a doctor ? She is not Alex’s doctor…YES ! But she still doesn’t have the right to tell anybody about his condition !

  • Dear Ex Wife, Please take me back   Chapter 184 ~ A devil

    ELI“No, son! It isn't. He is just trying to come between us. “Yes! Your father would never do such a thing!”“Oh come on, John. You can do better, bro. You see Noah, your daddy has always been insecure and envious. I mean, haven't you seen your mother? Because he couldn't have your aunt, he went and made a replica for himself. Didn't that shake you up a bit?” I grind my teeth at the reminder that this sick bastard still thinks of my wife.“BECAUSE IT WAS ALL MINE! YOU STOLE IT!” “How did I steal It? Hmm? Did I also push you to ruin your own daughter, you piece of shit?” I grab him by the collar and hit him so hard he stumbles back with a broken jaw. “You made a choice to be the monster you are! Don't you dare give an excuse for it. You even got yourself a demon for a wife to complete the cycle! No wonder your son has a shit torn of insecurities!” I kick him before turning to Noah.His lips are pressed into a thin line as he watches. The scene unfolds like his eyes are opening for

  • Dear Ex Wife, Please take me back   Chapter 183 ~ Unmasked

    ELI My mind has been moving in a dangerous direction. I'm trying to hold onto the patience I no longer have for the sake of my wife. If it were up to me, this shitty town would be in ashes as we speak. But I promised Ari I'd hold on a little and trust Luca. My phone vibrates, making me release my now sleeping wife and carefully place her on the couch. She has refused to leave our sons side for any reason.She has been practically staying in this hospital, and she fainted when the doctors rushed in once his heart stopped beating.I tried getting all kinds of hearts paying ten times their worth, but none was a match.Frustration was slowly building up, and I felt like if I spent another minute sitting, I'd lose the little control I'm holding to. This is my son we're talking about.The only one we have.If anything happens… I don't even want to go there.Sliding to the right, I pick up Luca's call. “Talk to me.” I grit out.“I'm sending something to your encrypted email.” He says an

  • Dear Ex Wife, Please take me back   Chapter 182 ~ A footage

    ATHENA“OH MY GOD!” I let out a scream as I step into the empty room.Tied to a chair and beaten to a pulp is Arnold. His face is barely recognizable. He's bruised, bloodied, swollen to the point where one eye is completely shut. Dried blood cakes his temple and lip. His breathing is shallow, wheezing with every inhale like it hurts to be alive.“How is this possible?” My voice is shaking both from fear and frustration.If the one we thought had it is here, then who has the damn box!“It can be anyone!” Luca runs his hand through his hair. “Fuck!” His eyes start to slowly darken as anger starts to wrap around him, making me take a step back.He has the face of someone who doesn't want to relax until someone is on the floor, bloody and broken.But Arnold’s already there.Honestly I mirror his anger. I'm actually getting more pissed off by the second. It's like someone is toying with us and it's starting to get fucking annoying.“Who the hell did this to him?” I whisper, my eyes dartin

  • Dear Ex Wife, Please take me back   Chapter 181 ~ You have to see this

    ATHENA “No killing, Luca!” I give him a side glance as he drives to whatever is our destination. “This is why I wanted you to go to the hospital! You'll just get in the way.” He complains.Hospital. One word.But has the power to make my heart stop.I don't want to go there hopelessly. I can't face Alex like that. I want to go there with hope and a solution. My only prayer is we get there on time because Rayen will never forgive me.“Do you know what caused his heart attack? Could it have been induced by something or someone?” I ask with a pounding heart.Truth is, guilt has been eating me and a part of me is afraid that I may have been the reason behind this. Luca shakes his head. “No. He knew it was coming. He even prepared a will and put some of his assets in a trust.” He turns to look at me, “With you as the trustee.”“What?” Luca doesn’t repeat himself. He just keeps his eyes on the road, both hands tight on the wheel, his jaw clenched like saying those words physically hur

  • Dear Ex Wife, Please take me back   Chapter 180 ~ Everyone makes mistakes

    ATHENA “Is this why you brought me here?” I turn to Luca, who has been watching the whole scene quietly.“Yes.”I hated him when he threatened to take my chance of my being with my son. I hated how he looked like he was barely holding back the feeling of murdering me. But now I understand. I would have done the same for my friend. Hell, Isabelle has been my best friend for only a few months, and she has already been to hell and back for me. I can imagine what that did to Luca after being at a threat of losing his friend and having his legacy ruined at once.“I bet you're having a blast knowing I've fucked up.” I laugh in defeat. “Not exactly.”I find that hard to believe. Luca thrives on being right.“Why not?”“Because my best friend is barely holding on. There is nothing blast about that.”Right.Guilt.Guilt is an ugly feeling that slowly eats you up until you're nothing but a shell. You start giving yourself excuses hoping they will save you but even those are never enough.A

  • Dear Ex Wife, Please take me back   Chapter 179 ~ I couldn't lose it all

    ATHENA“Why are you so breathless? Is it because of what Melania said?” He takes one step forward. Melania?He laughs. But there isn't any humor in the sound. “You put them up to it?” I ask, shock evident in my voice. “Well of course I did. Congratulations, your name isn't anywhere In the article. But from how you behaved and rushed to call Zayan, I'm guessing you had to confirm what you said didn't slip out of his bitching mouth isn't it?”My heart sinks. “That's not why I called him.” I lie but he doesn't buy it. If anything he just seems to get angrier. Tears burn my eyes. “Get in the fucking car, Athena!” He growls. My knees buckle. I would rather he kills me right here in the open, I'm not going anywhere near his car!“No.”“No?”“No… No, I’m not going anywhere with you.”My legs are trembling.I feel sick.The Athena that used to feel safe around him is gone.His usually bright eyes and cheerful face is something completely different. He looks so angry I can't even tell t
