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    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    The Stranger

    Isabelle's POV…There were moments when I still woke up in the middle of the night, drenched in cold sweat.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Lyvanne's face. Not the helpless woman I had once manipulated. But the fearless woman who had looked me straight in the eye while deciding whether I deserved to live.I honestly thought she was going to kill me that day.After everything I had done and the lies I told Alexander about her. After sending her to prison and after trying to destroy her life over and over again.I wouldn't have blamed her if she had ended mine. Yet she didn't.She let me go. And even now, I couldn't understand why. Perhaps mercy really existed.Or perhaps she simply believed living with my guilt was a far worse punishment than death.I released a long sigh as I stepped out of the luxury shopping mall, several branded shopping bags hanging from both hands.“I should be grateful,” I

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    You Aren't Safe

    Lyvanne’s POVThe faint hum of my laptop filled the room as I clicked the power button. The screen lit up, and then—my heart stopped. A bold, red warning flashed across the screen:“Just because you survive doesn’t mean you are safe.”A cold shiver ran down my

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    It's Nothing to Be Helped by an Enemy

    Lyvanne’s POVThe silence in the room was deafening, my gaze never leaving him. The atmosphere was so quiet, like a graveyard.I watched Alexander standing frozen by the door, my question still hanging heavily in the air. I was desperate to hear what he had to say.“Why did you help me?” I asked on

  • Dear Ex-wife, Please Come Back    You have a call

    Lyvanne's POVThe studio buzzed with pressure, fabric rustled, machines hummed, staff moving quickly as if the very floor beneath them would catch fire if they slowed down.I stood in the center of the busy office, a storm in heels, snapping out instructions like a general in battle. It has always

  • 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
