ISABELLA’S POV

I was drowning in a pile of work. The boss wouldn't stop calling me after the fake painting rumour. He had informed me that most clients called him complaining and now I had to call them one after another to clear the air.

To inform them that my sister was only throwing a tantrum that my parents could have stopped when we were growing up.

Well I didn't put it that way. I just had to explain that it was Valeria’s misunderstanding and nothing more. I even volunteered to have their paintings checked by an expert.

“You hid the fact that you were married, Miss Isabella. I am sure you had your reasons but please keep your personal life away from your business life.” He paused. I could hear him fiddling with something on the other side of the call. “I’m turning a blind eye because you have sacrificed a lot for this company.

  • EX-HUSBAND’S LAST CHANCE AT LOVE   EPILOGUE

    Isabella walked around their building carefully, her eyes glued to the backyard where Alaric held Sunshine close to his chest, laughter bubbling from his chest at the Kelvin’s jokes causing Diamond to hit him playfully in the chest.He pretended to be hurt, and a smile caressed my lips. She was more than relieved that things were back to normal. The police were still searching for the murderer, but she was at peace knowing Alaric didn't do it. Tessa had tried reaching out to them countless times, but Isabella had ignored her. She had made peace with herself and no longer held that baggage.Yes, Tessa remained unforgiving. But her karma had caught up with her. The guilt tearing at her soul was enough. Isabella didn't want to walk through that lane again.“Baby.” Sighting her, he handed their baby to her godparents before heading towards her. “You haven't healed yet. You should be resting.” She bit on her lower lip to endure the searing pain that came with each step.“I need to let

    THIRD PERSON’S POVHer head throbbed badly and she let out a grunt before slowly pulling her eyes open. Instead of the darkness she was now used to, she was met with light. Blurry at first and then gradually the empty space fell into space.Her breath seized. Tears roared down her ears. The air that hit her lungs next was fresh, and it felt like it awoke every part of her body. It….“My poor baby…” She heard her Mother’s wail before she stepped into the room. Slowly she tilted her head and pain jotted through her. Hazel froze for a second then broke into a loud laughter before bursting forward to wrap her arms around her and place kisses all over her face. Isabella let out a soft agonising laugh. “Mom…” Her voice quivered as she tried to wrap her weak arms around her. “I feared I lost you. Again.” Hazel sobbed. “Never again, Ruby. Never again.” Her tears wet Isabella’s cheeks. Alexander and Alaric stood behind them. Alaric’s heavy heart deflating. She was alive. He released in

    ALARIC’S POVI had thought that flying would be impossible given the warning, but somehow I had managed to get on the plane. My chest almost burst open from how fast my heart pounded. The journey had been like a ticking bomb for me. The eagerness that held me was high. The urge to see my wife again and wrap my arms around her.Soon, the plane landed, and I got out, heading towards where the cars were parked. I had been in a hurry and had not made enough preparation.As I stood in front of the building, the whole place was filled with people, some laughing with their loved ones, and others trying to get their clients downtown. I stepped into the one I had bought online before I boarded the plane. The newly hired driver was in it, a big grin on his lips.“Billionaire suspect flees this night after the death of his father. Police are on the lookout for…” The voice drifted off the radio.I frowned. That sounded oddly familiar. “Whatever your name is, drive,” I ordered, regardless, scrol

    THIRD PERSON’S POV A ringtone sliced through his deep sleep making his groan. His hands rambled over the sheet, the tone was near yet he found nothing until he forced himself up. His eyes ached with intensity, and his skin was caressed by the cool breeze. He had slept off mid tears, and worse, his head against the edge of the bed, while the rest of his body was crouched on the floor. He felt something underneath his knee and stretched to put it out. His phone. Alexander. The name flashed in his vision. Clearing his throat to hide all forms of emotions, he placed it against his ear. “I’m sorry I couldn't make it. I had…something came up. How is my wife?” Alaric let out, scared to tell them what exactly it was that happened. Isabella was no longer the girl he had married. She was the daughter of a powerful family now and him, all he had left was his Father’s name. He feared that they might see him as unworthy of her. She could have anyone now. Literally anyone. “It’

    ALARIC’S POV This wasn't the development I expected. My fist slammed into the dashboard as my annoyance consumed me. My end game was to drag her with me to my wife and make her plead for a second chance to live.But women like her didn't even deserve a second chance.I wanted nothing more than to slowly torture her in exchange for what she made my woman go through.My phone ringtone sliced through the air causing me to grunt as I pulled it out. An unknown number. My finger hovered over it as I contemplated between answering or ignoring and finally I slid the green button.“Yes.” I breathed out.“Mr Alaric. This is the police.” There was a pause then some sounds underneath. “We found a body, and we need you to come check if it is him.” My heart skipped a beat. A bead of sweat formed over my forehead.“Where?” My voice sounded distant.“Hallyway Bridge.” With that, the call dropped, and in the next minutes, I was steering the wheel with all my strength while my heart continued to bea

    ALARIC’S POVMy jaw clenched over and over again as I awaited the door to open. My patience was standing on the edge of an ice, and it was taking all my willpower not to break down the door and have this over with.Finally, it was pulled open to reveal a young lady with dark hair, she looked too young to be the woman I was looking for. Her eyebrow arched a little as her eyes moved over me.“I’m looking for a Tessa Ray,” I announced, her brows furrowed in the middle.“That’s my mom. Is everything okay? Is she expecting you?” I bit on the inside of my mouth, telling myself to control myself from blurting out the type of monster her so-called mother was. “Yes.” I lied, and she stared at me for seconds before shutting the door.Anger rose in me, and I formed my palms into fists. By the time the door opened a few moments later, it was her. I could tell from how similar she looked to the younger one.She had a bright smile on. Her face filled with evidence of aging. Her once black hair w
