(Dean)

I couldn't have been more restless after seeing Bella's text.

She wanted to meet and talk, on one hand I was happy she texted, super excited even but on the other hand I was dreadfully nervous.

Bella wanted to talk?

That thought leaves me thrilled and anxious. We'd be having lunch this afternoon, and hence I welcomed the morning with an electrifying buzz.

I wore my finest suit, a well polished shoe and made sure my hair was perfectly in place. I just couldn't help myself.

Ethan noticed it, perhaps from my voice when he called this morning to remind me of the meeting with the upper Elites.

And trust him to not fail to ask. "You sound incredibly thrilled for someone who'd be in the same space for two long hours with Eric Scott," He say, my mind drifts to the meeting I do not wish to attend.

If it wasn't out of duty and perhaps business, I doubt I'd want to be anywhere near the likes of Eric.

Eric always wants to undermine me at every turn. He seems to cease any chance he gets to

  • Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife    Chapter 153 Lust and desires

    (Ethan)"Hmmm, interesting." I say, my eyes not leaving where she is. "My usual." I tell Israel.Ignoring the stares of the girls ogling me, I walk to my usual spot and sat down, my eyes never leaving this shawty, one who took my breath away at first glance."Thank you," I mutter to the bartender that brought my drink, taking my glass and bringing it close to my mouth.This isn't you, Ethan. You can't let one girl stop you from having fun tonight, my nasty mind reminded me but I was far too gone to listen.I see two guys approach her and strangely I can't tell how I feel about that, but she tells them off with a sexy glance that says 'Nah, I'd pass'.A small part of me got excited seeing her turn these men down but that excitement is short-lived as a tall blonde- haired guy walks towards her with a darkened eyes, and even worse, she's entertaining him.I got on my feet before I could stop myself, walking to where she is.I inched closer. "Hey, baby. I'm sorry for keeping you waiting f

  • Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife    Chapter 152 Swept off my feet

    (Ivy)I stared at the name before me, La Dolce Vita. It's the best out of the list, and my guts just feel right about this one.A smirk appears as I begin to walk my way into the club, looking incredibly sumptuous."A glass of Belvedere, please." I smile at the bartender who's staring like he's been hypnotized. I get it though, I'm a pretty irresistible thing."Sure," the bartender gives a crooked smile as he turns to follow orders.I make myself comfortable on the stool, my eyes sweeping the entire room.I sigh, no one piques my interest, just some boring jerks. I mean I'm going to get laid by one though but if I'm going to do this, then it should be worth it, somehow."Here," the bartender's voice drags my attention and I turn to meet him stripping me off with his eyes.Asshole."Thanks," I mutter half-assed, before taking the glass and gulp down half the content.But as I do so, I noticed the footsteps of someone stepping into the club, drawing the attention of all the girls in the

  • Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife    Chapter 151 Sort out plan

    (Ivy)"I want a baby," I say out of the blues, making Tracy, my bestfriend, choke on her drink.Yes, you heard right. I want a baby to love and me to love back and that's on period.I give Tracy a look as I watch her reaction. Yeah, I expected that and well…even more.Tracy looks at me like I've gone crazy. "You want what?" She asks in shock, her eyes not leaving mine.I know she heard me but I don't mind saying it again. "I want a baby, Tra….,""I heard you the first time," she cuts me off abruptly, her gaze pinned on me. "What I don't understand is why, how…why now? Why do you need a baby now, you're literally at the peak of your career, are you sure?"I take a quick sip from my glass and nod. "I have never been so sure about anything in my entire life, I want this, more than anything,"Tracy sighs and gives me a thoughtful gaze. "Look, Ivy. Having a baby requires a lot, and —," she trails off again. "How do you even intend to go about it, you barely give any man the time of the day

  • Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife    Chapter 150 Table turns drastically

    (Ashley)My life's hanging on a thin line as I await trial. I clench my fist tight, my head is blank. It was supposed to be Bella in that hospital, hurt and in despair, not Dean.I didn't know he'd jump in front of her like that, I didn't plan to risk his life, just eliminate the thorn in my side, Bella.Now, Dean probably hates me more.And even worse, my own mother does too. Yesterday, she walked out, telling me to my face that I was nothing but a disgrace to the family, How Leila, my younger sister is better off.Yeah, that. I have to live with been compared to my younger sister, and that was never okay, I wanted to prove something, to myself and to my mother.That I can do much better, keep a man, not just any man but the best of the best. That I could start my own family, that Leila can't come close.But Bella ruined it all, fucking bitch!Now, my mother thinks I'm a burden, threatening to cut me off and with Romeo's case suddenly resurfacing, I don't think I will be out of here.

  • Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife    Chapter 149 Mistakes and regrets

    (Judy)Never have I imagined being this vulnerable, this shattered but I'm too broken to put up any sort of emotional shield right now.I have to admit, I've been wrong about Bella all along, she's not the problem, I am.It was unfair to have judged her, to have condemned her because of her past, and to have broken her home.I thought she was out to get Dean, that she was using him, always believing that she wasn't good enough for the son I raised.And with Dean paying her debt and getting her out of that shit hole, my hatred piqued. But I was too quick to judge.Yes, I was.She was never with him for money, walking out of the marriage without demanding for a penny should have told me so but my hatred for her blinded me.I wanted Ashley so bad for Dean that it led me into doing outrageous things, I did everything to get them together, knowing fully well that Dean only has eyes for Bella.He loves her deeply, the press conference was an eye opener and then this, taking a bullet for her

  • Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife    Chapter 148 Tricia, not Ivy

    (Bella)"Baby, you need to go home, freshen up and get some rest," Dean tries to coax me, stroking my hair gently. "I promise I'll be fine on my own, Ethan's coming over." He gives me that look, hoping to get through to me.I might be tired out from crying and all of that but there's no way I'm leaving him alone in this sterile place, all to himself. I need to be with him.I look at him and shake my head. "I need to stay here. I need to be close to you, I can't leave you all to yourself." I insists.Dean holds my gaze and a soft smile appears. "I know babe, but you need rest as much as I do. And the kids, they might—," he trails off and his smile grows a little bigger. "Okay, let's do it this way. Ethan's almost here, why don't Raymond take you home, get some rest, change into something more comfortable, then he can bring you back right after?" He tilts his head, searching my eyes as he says this.As much as I want to be stubborn about this one, he's damn right. I haven't seen my babi

  • Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife    Chapter 147 Us

    (Bella)I clear my throat briefly, my eyes flickering on both Ethan and Ivy. "Dean's safe now, the doctor just brought the news," I say, my voice cutting through the tension like a sharp knife.I don't know what that is, but then it's Ethan, he's always had his way with women, but looking at Ivy, she looks undaunted, unmoved.It migh—-- it might be nothing, perhaps I'm just overthinking it.Ethan shifts his gaze to me, but I don't miss the shock in his eyes. "Than— thank God he's okay," He says, letting out a deep breath, something is definitely off with him, but I don't let that thought linger on.From my spot, a little further down the hallway, I see Judy and Elena darting towards us, their stride is quick, the fear written all over their faces.I don't — I don't remember telling Judy about this. My eyes flickers to Ethan as I think this and he gives me that apologetic look."She called and I— I just couldn't keep this away from her," he says softly.I take a deep breath and nod, my

  • Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife    Chapter 146 It's all over now

    (Bella)My heart is been ripped out of my chest, as I helplessly watch the paramedics load Dean into the ambulance.I look over and see the police officer's car driving away, with Ashley in it and my chest tightens, tears streaming down my face. I haven't felt this hate towards anyone in my entire life.I know that Ashley is capable of many things but trying to kill me, with a gun, by herself, in broad day light was never in my list.And in doing so, she has hurt Dean, so badly.I was too disheveled to tell where the gun had hit him, but I know he has lost so much blood.My eyes flickers to my shaking hands, sticky with Dean's blood and my heart shattered.I could barely catch my breath, my lungs became impossible to stretch, making every breath far too shallow to suffice.I know Dean loves me, more than anything but…. But taking the bullet for me, I don't… I don't know what to say.It all but brings fresh tears to my eyes. Knowing that the man who'd give his life up for me is in there

  • Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife    Chapter 145 The last straw

    (Ashley)I've waited for this day, impetuously, biding for the perfect time. Dean tightened the security around her, but that's fine. I needed to lay low for a while anyways.I knew my time will come, just like it did before and I will fucking grab it, making the most out of it.Kendra became my eyes and my ears, the only one I could trust at this point. I have her constantly tail her and keep me in the loop.It was taking much time, it feels more like a dream that was taking far too long to achieve and to top it all, I got an email from Judy, asking for a respite, a truce.And then my mother called, Judy must've coaxed her into ordering for my return.I let out a loud laugh, but there's no real humor in it.She must think I'm stupid. She's even dumber than dog shit to think I'll back down now, to forfeit everything I've sacrificed for the past eight years.Never.Dean will have to choose me, no one else.He was supposed to be mine till she came and stole him from me. But I'll do whate
