Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife Chapter 46 Still married
(Dean)My phone rings and it's Humphrey calling. I click the green icon and press the phone to my ear."Yes?" I answer, sipping my coffee."Good day boss. The official document for the building has been finalized." He divulged, his voice crisp and professional.I bring the cup down. "Hmm. I see," I mutter."Yes, boss. Are you willing to retain the security officers working there?" He asks.I didn't even have to think. "Of course, everyone keeps their jobs," I reply."Alright noted sir. And the building inspection, when are you free?""Is there any need for that, Humphrey?" I ask, I have my decision of not showing up there in mind when I ask."Most definitely boss, it's one of your laid down policies before purchasing a property," Humphrey reminds me.I take a quick glance at my wrist watch, we still have time before my morning meetings. "Alright. Let's go take a look this morning," if l don't do that now, I'm not sure when it'd be.I'm about to hang up when I retort. "Oh, and one more

(Bella)"Alright Mr Alfred, we'll be looking forward to doing business with you," Cynthia said, extending a hand to our new client.I nod with a smile, seemingly pleased with the outcome of the meeting."The pleasure is all mine," Mr Alfred replies with a smile, taking her hand.As soon as he walks out of the room, I turn to Cynthia, offering a warm smile. "You did great," I tell her."Thank you," she says in a dismissive tone, picking up her tablet to leave.I noticed Cynthia hasn't been as cold as she used to be towards me and that's a relief. Now, we can coexist as colleagues without any bad blood.So the thing is, she didn't answer my question that day, unlike Cynthia I know quite well, she didn't try to counter that, she simply walked away but not before I saw something flash through her eyes, which suggests that I might be right after all.~~I swipe my entry card and walk into my office, the meeting was a welcome distraction from the wheels turning in my head.The weight of Dean

(Dean)It's been days and I still don't know how to feel about the mean things Bella said to me.I thought mentioning the unsigned divorce papers will make her see things differently but I guess I was wrong.Yet again, she's proven to me that she never wanted to be with me.Why do I even keep trying?I mean, she cheated on me, deceived me but I'm the one who hasn't signed the divorce papers, who's been mooning over her and yet when I mentioned it, she showed no interest whatsoever in that.Like she didn't give a care in the world.I guess that did it for me.And now, I'm almost certain that I won't bother her again. I'm going to move on completely just like she has.I'd find the courage to sign the divorce papers officially and put everything behind me.So, throughout these days I've preoccupied my mind with work, attending more meetings than usual, my schedule has been a lot tighter, with barely a moment to spare for introspection.I even went as far as signing up for a gym membership

(Bella)I walk Calvin to the door after a casual visit.To be honest, I've been thinking a whole lot lately, Judy and Ashley's threat, Dean's revelation, it's been on my mind.Calvin turns as soon as he steps out of the door, facing me with a concerned look etched on his face. "Is there something on your mind, something you want to talk to me about? You've been too quiet lately," Calvin asks, holding my gaze.I shake my head slightly and forced a smile. "No Calvin, I'm fine." That's not true but I want it to be.Calvin holds my gaze for a second longer, I'm not sure he's convinced but then he drops it, much to my relief.He lets out a breath and replied. "Okay. Let's have dinner together tonight," he offered.I'm about to find a nice way to turn him down, my mind's unease to hang out right now.Calvin's voice comes through again, a lot softer this time. "Please don't say no, Bella. It's just my own little way of cheering you up," he retorts, offering a warm smile.I look at him, and hi

(Dean)Calvin blinks as realization hits him, his expression twists but that reaction doesn't linger on for too long.Bella's face contorts in rage instantly, she looks at me fiercely with a note of disbelief. "Stop with the BS, Dean!" She snaps, taking a step closer, she seems more annoyed than anything, her eyes are narrowed at me, emitting an intense anger, a side of her I've never seen. "I'm no one's wife," she declared, her voice sharp.Hearing her say that straight to my face without a care in the world, undoes something in me.My jaw tightens. "You think this is a joke?" I seethe, my eyes pinned on her. "We're not officially divorced and what you're doing right now," I say, pointing between her and Calvin. "Is damn wrong but it's not like being faithful has ever been your strong suit anyways," I mocked, my voice a deep coating of sarcasm.A chuckle slips out of Bella's mouth, a dry, humourless sound. My frustration boils over, and for a moment I wonder if I've said anything funn

(Dean)I barely slept last night, my mind's been a mess, I can't seem to hold it down, Bella's words, Humphrey's revelation.It's all stuck in my head, refusing to back off.I don't understand.How is it even possible that Bella has not just a kid but twins and I didn't know?If it was anyone else that told me about this, I'd have doubted it but then it's Humphrey and he sent me evidence to back this up, the full details of Bella when she moved in and true to his words, she's their mother.But it baffles me that I'm just finding out, I must say, she did a fantastic job hiding them.But then again, who's the lady with the little boy at the mall?There's just so much questions running through my head.Javier, the name escapes my mouth as my brain works overtime.Now, it makes so much sense.The resemblance, the sudden connection ever since I laid my eyes on him, my curiosity, it's not just about me liking kids.It's something more, something deeper.Wait.The twins couldn't have been mor

(Dean)I'm seated at my office, flipping through a document, I tried to stay focused but I'm really not feeling it.I've instructed Humphrey to call my PR team to clean this up immediately and luckily they've been able to hold things down for now.Hopefully we don't draw more attention to the situation, the gossip will die down with time too.And as for Eric, we'll meet again.All in all, I should be a lot calmer right?But heck I'm not. I still have a bigger fish to fry.Bella, the twins, their paternity, the reason why she's been hiding them, the pills, my sudden confliction, all of it.Surely, I'll get to the root of this.As I shuffle nonchalantly through the pages of the document Humphrey had brought in earlier, a woman's angry voice cuts through the silence. "Where is Dean?"I recognize that voice instantly. It's Mom.She must've seen the news, such things doesn't get past her.I shrug back to my chair, waiting for her to stride in.The door burst open and Mom storms in angrily w

(Dean)The room falls silent, Ethan's words hanging in the air. I just stilled, letting his words sink in.I don't know but the thought of seeing Bella with Calvin, losing her to him, the fear of it, it makes my stomach twist, it leaves my heart feeling empty.But then, I'm still confused about a whole lot of things.My mind's a jumbled mess.I look at Ethan, my expression softens completely. "You remember the little boy from the mall, the twins?" I ask, holding Ethan's gaze.He shrugs. "Yeah, I do. What about them?" He asked, eyebrows raised.I swallow hard. "Bella's their birth Mom," I say, my voice strained.Ethan tilts his head, his eyes wide open. "Huh?" He exclaims, his eyes darting on me, he has a look of disbelief registered on his face. "Bella has kids?"I nod. "Yeah, she does," I reply, the words as simple as it sounds, feels so heavy in my mouth. "I'm just so—- confused," My shoulders slumps. Ethan narrows his eyes at me, studying my expression carefully and then he says in

Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife Chapter 136 Only one suspect
(Bella)I wake up and Dean isn't beside me but I when I hear a little sound in the bathroom I knew he was in there.Last night was mind blowing, Dean did things to me that had me nearly passing out from pleasure.We both didn't leave this room, the only time I had to say anything to anyone was to Anne, she had knocked to ask if we'd have dinner and of course I dismissed her, we've both had our fill and by the time I had my sixth orgasm, we were both tired out and could barely stomach anything.Stretching, I'm about to get up when he saunters out of the bathroom, fully dressed."You're awake," he says, a smile finding it's way to his face. "I didn't want to disrupt your sleep, seeing you needed rest after….," he winks, pausing halfway.My face feels like volcano and I could barely hide it from him. "You're ready to go?" I manage to ask through a shy smile and he nods."Yup, but I asked Anne to whip up something for you," he says and almost immediately a knock comes to the door. "I gues
Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife Chapter 135 Fiercely mine
(Dean)The smile on her face makes my stomach clench with happiness and every ounce of jealousy I had felt suddenly ebbs away.I don't reply, my words failed me, all I did was stare at her, my desire laid bare.My eyes darken and the next thing I knew, I leaned over and claimed her lips, kissing her so hard. I need to get lost in her so bad, I want to eat her out for hours.She moans into my mouth and my dick throbs in my pants. I whirled her around, resting her back on the couch, towering over her, and claiming her lips once more."What are you doing?" She asks, out of breath, while I gently nibble on the nape of her neck. "Dean…Anne could…,""She's out to get groceries. It's just the two of us, baby." I murmur against her skin, running my hand over her hard, sensitive nipples through her silky top."She'll be back— in no time," she croaked out, causing me to pause and look at her.Fine, I picked her up and maneuvered us to her room, I gently put her down and pulled off her silky top
Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife Chapter 134 The only one for me
(Dean)I have called Arthur and asked him to urgently look into how those pictures got to the press and I know I'll have my answer in less than a day.I stood in front of Bella's front door and exhaled deeply, ready to face this strange lady but this time I won't be leaving if I don't see my woman.I press the doorbell and waited and after a while the door creaks open and this lady stood before me yet again, bearing an unreadable expression.But instead of telling me off, she shifts to let me in, and I see a smirk creeping up her face.Is she messing with me?"Come in," she says, giving me quite the look.I step in, still as confused as hell."Didn't you say you just —," I tried to voice out but the approaching footsteps cuts me off.I turn to see Bella, and she paused as soon as she sees me, staring into my eyes.The warmth in her eyes somehow takes all my worries and fears away."Babe," I call out softly and rushed to her, pulling her close and wrapping my arms around her, I hold he
Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife Chapter 133 My sister, my rock
(Bella)"Why didn't you say so sooner?" I smack her arms and she giggles slightly."Well, that's part of the surprise, telling you would have ruined the fun, don't you think?" she says, lifting her eyebrows.I shake my head, and walk over to her car to meet a beaming Aria, I pause.She's gorgeous, pretty eyes and a cute smile like her momma."Hi," I say, flashing her a smile.Her grin grows bigger and she throws herself into my arms. "Aunt Bella!" She squealed.I ruffle her hair and when I look back to where Ivy was standing, she isn't there anymore, she has opened the door of my car, leaning over and talking with the twins, I could literally hear their soft giggles.I snap my eyes back to Aria and kiss her forehead. "What's her name?" I pointed to her big doll behind her."Star," she says, her smile growing even wider."Such a cute name," I retort, ruffling her hair gently, my smile still in place. I just love her, I've loved her long before now.After we had our moment, I step aside
Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife Chapter 132 I'll have to do me
(Bella)Whoever was behind this aimed to ruin me, hence the reason my social handles were all over the media, notifications were pouring in, tons of hateful words, dirty comments and some even tagged me a whore and a golddigger.The blogs didn't relent, they're clearly milking this for all it's worth.Tired of reading through all the nonsense about me, I drop my phone and exhaled deeply.I'm handling this a lot better than my emotional self would, it baffles me but well, I'll have to do me, the world will be just fine.But then….. I pause, a thought comes to mind. If this lingers on, it won't be long before they drag my kids into this drama.I sigh, running a hand through my hair. Soon enough, it'll be the gold-digging wife and her secret babies.My kid's faces will be all over the media, I wouldn't put that past the person behind this chaos.God, I don't want them to drag my innocent kids into this and I definitely do not want this kind of ridiculous attention for them.I sucked in
Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife Chapter 131 Echoes of love
(Dean)Unease, worry, a surge of helplessness, all of it scratch it's way through my skin, seeping through every pore.It's been over five seconds since this strange lady shut the door in my face, and here I am, glued to a spot.That isn't even the disturbing part, but wheels are already turning in my head at her response. She moved in?If that's not strange, then I don't know what is. A pang of uneasiness, fear, and a little bit of anger settles over me.Maybe if I hadn't freaking silenced my phones, I would have been here in time.But moving out? Did Bella really do that?I'm not believing any damn thing till I hear from her, and there's only one way to find out, actually two ways.Shit… I pause.I can't contact Derrick, I had angrily deleted his number when I thought Bella left me and I still don't have it now.Ugh. I run my hand through my hair, and then I lift my eyes and slowly walk over to meet the building's concierge.He bowed down to greet on seeing me.I give him a curt n
Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife Chapter 130 Through thick and thin
(Dean)Full tilt into my meetings and I've barely come up for air. It's been a busy day, even so more than usual.And I can't wait to get done with it and head back home to my woman and kids. I couldn't wait until I could hold Bella in my arms again.But then, I had an odd feeling when I called Bella before getting on with these meetings and she didn't answer, I texted her and waited for a while but got no response.Humphrey came to inform me that it was time for the meeting, my eyes had flickered on the phone before I put it on silence and handed it over to Humphrey, alongside my other phone.I do that whenever I have important meetings to avoid distractions, and this one is with international investors, so yeah."We're looking forward to working with you, Mr. Brennan." One of the men says with a grin as he extends his hand toward me.A smile sits on my lips as I take the hand he's offering. "It's a pleasure, Mr. Duke."Once done, I head out to where Humphrey is seated, waiting.He g
Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife Chapter 129 Stolen peace of mind
(Bella)I got home in time before Javier and Jasmine woke up, I had to, Anne isn't too strong to get them ready for school on her own, and I needed her to get all the rest she can.I didn't get Ivy's call nor text, she usually calls every morning or leaves a text. I had called but she didn't answer and hasn't returned the calls.I pocket my phone and help get the twins ready for school before heading to make us breakfast.As I move around the kitchen, plating the food, I couldn't help but reminisce about last night, it was beyond what I could put into coherent words, it was beautiful, it was passionate and it felt right, more right than anything has in a long time.I had a corking good time.We made love till we were both tired out, we talked about a lot, from how I felt when I realized Ashley and his mother had set me up down to how challenging being pregnant and alone was, how helpful Calvin has been.My stomach twisted when I mentioned Calvin, a subtle reminder of our unresolved is
Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife Chapter 128 Screams of pleasure
(Bella)Those words were all it took, and Dean's lips are on mine again, devouring every inch of my mouth, I could barely catch my breath as the kiss grows more intense with every second.It feels like we're both starving, the passion is still there, as fiery as ever.Dean lifts me up against the wall, his lips still on mine, while I wrap my legs around his waist.After a few minutes of kissing me none stop, he gently brings me down, and striped me bare, discarding my dress and I watch his eyes darken as he stares at my body, eyes filled with admiration."You're so beautiful," his voice is hoarse and soaked in desire, he undid his button, shrugging out of his shirt, revealing a well-defined chest and sculpted abs.My eyes roams his body, exploring every fascinating inch of his chest and abdomen and then my face flushed as my eyes drifted to a certain bulge in his boxers briefs. When I look up to meet his gaze, he has a smirk.He took a single step forward and that was it, he whirls me
