•Edward POV•

A wave of emotions almost knocked me off balance as I stared at Juliet's disoriented expression. I still couldn't believe what she was saying. How could Jace not be in his school? This was strange, too strange. And the fact that I had gone there to see him before coming to work only made it seem as if I was the one who had taken him.

"I think we need to ask the school. See if anyone there saw someone take him out," I said, my heart pounding like a drum in my chest. I don't think I'd ever been this worried in my life.

Juliet looked up at me, anger and pain etched deep into her face. "Edward, how could you do this to me?" she cried, her voice trembling. The look in her eyes sent a chill through me, like she truly believed I had something to do with Jace’s disappearance.

Vera stepped forward, gently placing a hand on Juliet's shoulder. "I don't think Edward took Jace." she said calmly. "We need to go to Jace's school. If he's not with Edward, maybe he’s still in the building

  • Divorced: Dear Ex It's Your Loss   Chapter 199

    •Juliet POV•I rested my head against the door and wiped my tears, telling myself once more that everything can't end this way. But the more I said it, the more it felt like I was lying to myself. James would always want to do something else, even if I managed to scale through this.I let out a rasped breath and closed my eyes, relishing in the sudden relief as I tried to think of what I could do to finally put James behind bars.The ringing tone of my phone distracted me from my thoughts. I stood up slowly, walking over to the phone laying on the nightstand. I picked it up to check for the caller ID, but my hand mistakenly swiped the answer button. I stared at the screen, seeing a familiar number I couldn’t quite place who the owner is. I brought it close to my ear anyway.“Hello, Juliet. How are you doing?”The voice on the call became clearer, and I recognized it as my mom’s voice.I sighed. When I thought the day couldn’t get any worse, it just did. But I didn’t end the call. A pa

  • Divorced: Dear Ex It's Your Loss   Chapter 198

    •Edward POV•I stood by the door, hearing Juliet’s quiet sobs. Seeing her like that broke my heart, and I just couldn’t believe all this was happening.All I’d ever planned after Juliet accepted me back into her life was to make her smile always, to give her the happiness she deserved. But doing that since this issue with James started had become a difficult thing for me.“Juliet, please listen to me. I know how you’re feeling right now, and I want you to know that you’re not alone,” I muttered, leaning closer to the door. “I promise you that I’ll make sure everything goes back to normal and that James gets what he deserves.”There was a moment of silence, just the sound of her breathing. Then came more sniffling, and she started crying again. Realizing she wouldn’t let me in and that she needed some time alone, I walked away from the door and down the stairs to the living room.Eric was sitting on the couch, scrolling through the tab in his hand, his face locked in concentration. I t

    •Juliet POV•“What?” Edward shouted from where he was sitting, dropping the phone onto the table. He walked over to me, eyes locked on the screen as I scrolled through the comments.“Now I feel like punching that bastard,” Edward groaned. “What does he want? Why did he go to this length just to do this?”I looked up from the phone screen, my voice low. “He wants to tarnish the reputation of Jace Perfume now, after trying to steal it.” I muttered, almost to myself. “Eric, what should we do about this?”Eric shifted slightly in his seat and picked up the cup of coffee Mrs. Carl had placed on the table in front of him. “I’ll try to see if we can trace the location of those comments. Maybe close down the accounts.”“That’s not bad,” Edward said, jaw clenched tight. “At least now we know what James is capable of.”I stared at the tablet screen once more before picking it up and handing it over to Eric, who was already sipping his coffee.“Do what you have to do,” I told him quietly.He nod

    •Juliet POV•I rolled over on the bed and snuggled close to Edward, resting my head on his chest. Trying not to think about the situation at hand, I let the warmth of his body give me a welcoming comfort.The smell of an unfamiliar manly cologne prickled my pulse, making me sniff. I didn’t recognize this perfume from anywhere. I opened my eyes and lifted my head off Edward’s chest. He shifted on the bed and rolled to the other side.I stared at him. Something wasn’t right.The man next to me… wasn’t Edward. The muscular build, the broad chest, it wasn’t Edward’s.“Edward?” I muttered, looking confused. But he didn’t answer.I gently pulled myself away from him and was about to get off the bed when a strong hand grabbed my wrist.“Who are you calling Edward?” The familiar voice asked.I blinked in confusion. I remembered Edward lying beside me, patting my back, whispering that everything would be alright before I slept.“Who are you?” I asked softly, my voice trembling.The man turned,

    •Juliet POV•I walked down the hallway, wiping the tears off my cheek. I’d never been so confused in my life the way I was at that moment.“Juliet,” Edward called after me, rushing to keep up with my pace, but I was faster. I knew what he was going to say, that everything would be alright, but that would be wrong.I pushed open the door to my office and walked in. My knees buckled, and I dropped to the ground, crying. I just couldn’t hold back the pain in my chest anymore.“Juliet,” Edward mumbled softly as he rushed to meet me. He leaned close to me, his voice low and filled with sympathy. “Oh God, please don’t do this to yourself. Please, this is the time you have to be strong.”“Strong?” The word echoed in my head like a reminder, dragging up all those times I’d told myself to be strong. All those moments when I buried my pain and walked around pretending like I was fine with how my life was going. “How can I be strong right now, Edward? What have I ever done to deserve this? Why d

    •Juliet POV•I groaned, covering my face with my hand. “Jeez, what’s happening, Vera?” I lifted my hand and wiped my tears. “Why’s James doing all this to me? Who could it be that he’s using again against me?”Vera lowered her gaze and stepped closer to me. “I wish I had the answer to your questions, but even I’m confused. This is the height of everything. James must be insane.”I sniffled, dragging my fingers under my eyes, trying to hold myself together. I kept whispering to myself that I’d be strong… but inside, I felt the brokenness growing, spreading across my chest like cracked glass. I didn’t know how much longer I could hold it all in.Vera and I walked out of the production area and back into the elevator. She kept talking, venting her anger and how much she hated James, her words sharp with emotion. But I just stood there, quiet, lost in the first moment I met him.Maybe this was the danger I had felt from the beginning. Deep down, I knew something wasn’t right about him. Hi
