I Never Trust You

I stared at the screen of my phone, the call ringing for the third time, each tone echoing in my mind like a warning bell. A part of me wanted to throw the device across the room. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to talk to him—I simply didn’t trust him, and that feeling was as suffocating as the summer heat hanging in the air. Alexander had a maddening way of worming his way into my head, unraveling my composure thread by thread. It was as if he had a sixth sense for when I was at my m

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    One Dance

    Lyvanne's POV…The award felt heavier than I expected. Not because of its weight. But because of everything it represented.Years ago, people called me a criminal.Tonight…Those same people stood and applauded.Life truly had a strange sense of humor, I must say.I smiled politely as congratulations came from every direction.Business partners, friends, investors, politicians, and everyone else.Everyone, except the one person I refused to look for.The only person I have been trying everything I could to not set eyes on.It was no other person but Alexander.I knew he was here. I had known the moment I entered the ballroom.You don't need to see someone to feel their presence.Occasionally you simply know.Still, I refused to search for him. Not because I hated him.Because I didn't want Rovan to misunderstand. Again.T

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    The Grand Charity Gala IV

    Rovan's POV…Alexander Saint.Even from across the ballroom, I could feel his eyes.Not on the stage, but on the awards.Not on the investors, but on Lyvanne.Again and again and again.He thought he was discreet, but he wasn't. A man in love never is.Everyone who was present at the event was none of my concern, except for Alex. I knew so well that if he had the chance to approach her, he would.The question was, will I give him the chance to do that?Certainly not. Unless I change my mind, else, as long as I'm here, he won't dare to do it even in his wildest dream.Suddenly, I leaned closer to Lyvanne to converse.“They're announcing your category next.” I stated, and she smiled.“I wasn't expecting to win.” She responded with hesitation.“I was.” I maintained my wide smile as I inserted.She didn't bother arguing but nodded and smiled back a

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    The Grand Charity Gala III

    Isabelle's POV… Smile. Just keep smiling. No one could ever suspect a smiling woman. At least that's what I kept telling myself, and it has always worked for me. Well, it said what you believe works for you. I guess whoever invented that statement was right. Looking at the enormous hall, the ballroom glittered with wealth and power, yet none of it interested me. Why should it? That wasn't why I was here. So it was none of my business. My eyes searched only for one person. Lucas. Where was he? He said he'd be here, but I haven't seen any sign of him. This better not be a prank or else… I don't even know if I can do anything to him, though. I just hoped it wasn't another way to put me in a problem I never wished for. Because I was ready to live a free life. A life filled with happiness, where I wouldn

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    The Grand Charity Gala II

    Alexander's POV…The loud applause echoed through the ballroom. I clapped with everyone else. Not because I wanted to. But because it was expected.At first, when I came inside the hall, there was no sign of her, and I thought she wasn't coming.Or perhaps Rovan stopped her from coming.Yeah, he was overprotecting her, allowing me no room to access her.Gosh!My eyes never left the woman standing beneath the spotlight.Lyvanne… Lyvanne Morales.She stood on the stage with effortless grace, the crystal trophy reflecting the chandelier lights as though the award itself had chosen its owner.If I'm being honest here, then I must say that she deserved it. She truly deserved it, and that was the plain truth.“My company has always believed that success means little unless it changes lives.”Those were the words that escaped her lips to the ears of the audience, who seemed imp

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    The Grand Charity Gala

    Lucas' POV…Patience…That was the difference between a professional and an amateur.Amateurs rushed, but professionals waited until their enemies believed they were safe, not knowing their enemy would be preparing for a more dangerous attack.Tonight wasn't the night. Tonight was merely the calm before the storm.Perhaps there might be a change of plans, though.Standing on the mezzanine level of the Grand Charity Gala, I overlooked the magnificent ballroom through a pair of tinted glasses.Crystal chandeliers illuminated the hall like countless stars, making the environment comfortable for all participants.A live orchestra filled the atmosphere with elegant music to entertain people of all kinds who were there.Business magnates, politicians, foreign investors, celebrities, and everyone who mattered were here exactly as I had expected.Who would want to miss such an event?No o

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    A Strange Place

    Isabelle's POV…My head was irking so badly when I finally woke up from my long sleep, but with my eyes still closed. It was as if I were lying on a hospital bed trying to comprehend where I was even without opening my eyes.I clasped my left palm against my temple, trying to feel my body temperature. Well, the temperature wasn't high nor was it low. It was neutral.I remained in that position for a while, refusing to open my eyes.Suddenly, my eyes fluttered open. And for several seconds, I couldn't remember where I was. The ceiling above me was unfamiliar, and I couldn't tell if it was a hotel room or someone's house. It has elegant chandeliers, cream-colored walls, and expensive decor.I looked around the corners of the room, trying to catch a glimpse of where I was. But the more I searched my memory for a picture of this place, the more confused I became.Yeah, it was obvious that I hadn't been here b

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    You Have No Right to Be Here

    The engine of the car hummed under my feet, but it was the silence that pressed against my chest. I couldn’t remember the last time I felt this disoriented. My thoughts were scattered, struggling to piece together the events that led us here. The image of Alexander’s bloodied form kept

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    Is He a Suspect or a Friend?

    (Lyvanne’s POV)I stopped abruptly when I saw Matteo.The moment our eyes locked outside the hotel entrance, my pulse quickened. How did he know I’d be here? There was no way it was a coincidence. With Matteo, everything felt orchestrated. His approach was smooth,

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    BRUISING MY EX HUSBAND'S EGO

    The atmosphere felt stifling, as if the air itself was constricting around me. My heart pounded with anxiety, our faces mere inches apart. "You seem tense. Do you miss me?" Alexander's voice sliced through the silence. I chose to ignore him, fully aware that I wanted nothing to do with someone wh

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    RETURN OF THE ENSTRANGED WIFE

    The clicks of a camera shutter followed me as soon as the door of my vehicle opened. Being a renowned figure was a big achievement for me. It reminded me of the sweaty days and troubled nights I’d sacrificed to ensure I got back on my feet…on my own.I’d spent two years in jail for a crime I neve
