Alexander's POV….

Without wasting much time, I found myself on the road to the address Lyvanne sent to me. Although it was 1:20pm, I still considered going there early so I could wait for her arrival. I was eager—too eager to meet her and hear what she wanted to discuss.

Yeah, even if she'll mention the proposal, I know how to convince her so as not to blame me for what happened. I would need to convince her to believe that the proposal wasn't done because I wanted to, but to protect her from my Mum. To protect her from the danger that was knocking on her door.

My only prayers?

I just pray she believes me because the last time we saw each other, it was written all over her face that she can't trust any word that came out of my mouth. But I'll try everything possible to convince her. Yes, she would have to believe me.

As I exited the hotel, I didn't bother to inform Isabella that I was leaving. Why should I even do that? The environment was suffocating—too suffocating for me to stay.

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    Her Past

    Alexander's POV…“Do you care for anything?” Lyvanne asked even before I took my seat. “Not really,” I shook my head as I sat opposite her. “But you look so hungry. Lol,” she teased, a smile curving her lips. I don't think she was really concerned about whether I was hungry or not, but just to tease me to see my reaction. Perhaps she was up to something else. Who knows? But whatever she was up to, I hope this urgent meeting ends well, though.“Well,” I shrugged, crossing my legs. “Your voice, your smiles, and your words alone are enough to quench my hunger if truly I'm hungry as you said.”Even if I'm hungry, I'm not sure whether there's anything or anyone on this earth that can convince me to eat anything here. I have no evidence that I was poisoned here as Isabella claimed, but just because I don't trust Isabella's words doesn't mean I trust the staff here. Just to avoid suspicion from Lyvanne or problems that might arise in the future, I didn't bother to meet the restaurant man

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    The Proposal

    Alexander's POV The day was finally here. The day I wished it never came. The rooftop of the luxury hotel glittered beneath the city’s skyline, lit with thousands of fairy lights wrapped around crystal pillars. A string quartet played softly in the background, their music floating into the evening air. Everything about the night screamed perfection, exclusivity, expensiveness, and breathtakingness. But you know what? My chest felt hollow, as if all the diamonds that shimmered around them had been carved out of my heart. My Mum just has no idea the monster she's about to bring into her home as a daughter-in-law. Maybe she hasn't seen Isabella's real side because she has been hiding it from her, pretending to be a nice lady. While I sat pondering everything, Isabella sat across the table, smiling uncontrollably, and never concerned about how I feel right now. Isn't a proposal supposed to come as a surprise? Why is this particular one planned together with the person who's

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    Sympathy

    Lyvanne's POV “I’m still trying so hard to believe what you're saying, Lyvanne,” said Vivienne as she sat on one of the couches, her leg crossed on the other, a glass of wine in her hand. “If this guy has been taking such risks just to prove how desperate he was to get you back, then I think it's time you give him the chance to come into your life once more. “What!” I exclaimed, clearly taken aback by Vivienne’s words. If someone ever told me that Vivienne would suggest such a thing to me, I wouldn't have believed it. “I can't believe you're saying this, Vivienne. Like, have you forgotten the pain I went through in the prison because of this same man you're asking me to give a second chance to? Do you even realize he was the reason my company's reputation was tarnished?” “Point of correction,” Vivienne cut in, a grin plastered on her face. “Your reputation was almost tarnished, but he intervened, which is why you should consider giving him a chance, Lyly.” “He intervened, you said

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back     A Tough Decision To Make

    Alexander's POV ‘Does that mean everything I have been through to win Lyvanne back will go in vain? Will I just stand here and let that happen?’ I was lost in thought as I stood in place, speechless, yet my eyes were on Isabella, but my attention wasn't on her. It was as if I knew something was going to come up. What kind of spell did Isabella cast on my Mum that she doesn't see her wrong side even if she's at fault? The more my Mum insists on getting married to Isabella, the more I feel it was a planned thing. While I was lost in thought, Isabella called me back to reality when she cleared her throat. “Alex, I…” she swallowed hard as she managed to speak, her palms rubbing against each other. “I know this is hard on you, but you should know that your Mum wants the best for you; that's why she's doing this. You…” “Just shut the f*ck up, Isabella,” I screamed at the top of my voice, causing her to tremble. I was beyond rage. It was as if I should strangle her to death. “My Mum is

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    Consider My Request

    . Isabella's POV “What!?” Alex gasped, his expression a mix of shock, awe, and utter bewilderment, like he was struggling to process what his Mum said. His face was a blank slate, his eyes empty and uncomprehending like a person in a daze. It was as if he was stabbed with a knife in the back by a betrayer on a battlefield. On the other hand, I was taken aback, as I wasn't expecting to hear that from Jessica. I never knew she loved me that much to the extent of asking her son to do such a thing. The last time I checked, it was Alex's wish to marry me, but I declined. Why? Of course, you don't expect me to marry someone with a terminal disease. Someone who had kidney failure? The fear of asking me to donate my kidney to him because he's my husband? I can't take that risk, please, no matter how much I love the person. I can't even make such a sacrifice for my parents, let alone someone's son. Although I called off our marriage then, I never believed Alex would accept me back into
