Ex-Husband’s Nemesis Setting the stage
Chapter 60Jake’s POVEverything was falling into place.Just yesterday, I felt stuck when Andrea refused my offer, I always had a solution to any problems I faced but yesterday I felt trapped. That was something that hadn’t happened to me in years—I always had a backup plan. But this time, Andrea was my only option. I could have married just any woman to get the inheritance that wouldn’t have been difficult. But that wouldn’t have made an impact on Jason. It wouldn’t have destroyed him.Andrea, though—she was different. The moment she became my wife, Jason would lose his mind. He would hit his head against the wall in frustration. And that was exactly what I wanted.A slow, satisfied feeling spread through my chest.For years, I had watched from the shadows, carefully calculating Jason's every move while he built his empire—an empire made from stolen ideas, greed, and stepping on others to get to the top. Now, it was finally time to crush him. And Andrea, whether she realized it or

Chapter 61Andrea’s POVMy call with Jason had ended, but his voice still echoed in my ears like a bad aftertaste I couldn’t spit out.Don’t cry, Andrea. You’ll ruin that pretty face of yours, so Jason still sees me as his. He sounded like I was his property. Irritation crawled under my skin. How could someone be so shameless? The way his behavior switched when I told him I was accepting his proposal—what an idiot. He thinks the world revolves around him. A small, fleeting sense of satisfaction crept through me. Jason had fallen for my trap. It was easier than I thought.I turned to Jake, whose eyes remained focused on the road. I kept staring at him from the corner of my eye. So, this is going to be my husband soon, I pondered. Fake husband, though. If not for this contract marriage, I would’ve sworn off men for good after my divorce with Jason. I had closed that chapter of my life. Never in my wildest imagination had I thought I’d be getting married again—and to this man sitting ne

Chapter 62 Claire stared at me like I had just told her I was skydiving without a parachute. “You’re what? Did I hear you right?” Her voice shot up, louder than intended, her eyebrows shooting to her hairline as she sat up straighter in bed. I raised my hands slowly. “Calm down.” She flung the blanket off her legs and swung them over the edge of the bed. “How can I be calm in this situation? You just told me you’re meeting Jason! Why would you even do that, for God’s sake?” she demanded, throwing her hands in the air. “I need him for something,” I muttered, my voice low, my gaze drifting toward the floor. I wasn’t sure how much of the information I should tell her. I had already decided not to lie—that’s why I even told her in the first place. But now, watching her flip out like this, I felt like I’d made the wrong call. Claire was not taking it lightly. She narrowed her eyes, stepping closer. “What could you possibly need Jason for? Please, Andrea—just tell me exactly what’s

Chapter 63.The morning light spilled across the room in streaks of soft gold. I blinked against it, my body heavy with sleep but my mind already restless. For a moment, I stayed still, letting the silence wrap around me like a thin blanket. Claire was still fast asleep beside me, her face turned toward the window, hair tangled on the pillow. Her breathing was soft, steady. Peaceful.I eased out of bed quietly, careful not to wake her. The cold floor nipped at my feet as I walked across the room but I didn’t mind. I stood by the window for a long second, arms folded across my chest, just looking at the garden it used to be my normal routine when I wasn't working but today I wanted to enjoy the view and maybe just relax my nerves a bit.Today was the day.The weight of it sat heavy in my chest. I glanced back at Claire. Part of me still couldn’t believe I’d told her everything. Or most of it, anyway. Her reaction played on repeat in my mind—her shock, her worry, the way she kept asking

Chapter 64Jason stood up as I approached the table. He wore a navy shirt tucked into dark jeans, A small smirk tugged at the corner of his lips. It was the same damn smirk he always wore—the one that made me want to scream and punch him at the same time. My pulse quickened despite my best efforts to stay calm.“Damn,” he said, his eyes dragging over me slowly. “You look incredible.”I kept my expression neutral, but I noticed the way his gaze lingered. His eyes washed over me like he was trying to memorize every detail like he hadn’t expected this. I forced my voice to remain steady.“Thanks. You don’t look bad yourself,” I replied, though my heart was kicking hard in my chest.“I don’t look as good as you, though.” He stepped closer, pulling out a chair for me. “Are you sure this is a lunch and not a date? ‘Cause if it is, I’m underdressed.”I sat down, pretending I hadn’t heard what he just said.Jason returned to his seat, his eyes still fixed on me. “I didn’t know you could dre

Chapter 65 “You’re quiet now.” Jason’s face was right in front of mine. His breath touched my skin, heavy and cold. “For someone who was running her mouth a few moments ago, you look calm. What happened to all that fire, Andrea?”I blinked, unsure how to answer. My throat felt like sandpaper, the words stuck somewhere between fear and confusion. I wasn’t prepared for this part of the plan. I was so confident nothing could go wrong.My skin crawled. The wire taped beneath my blouse suddenly felt like it was burning into me. I wrapped my arms around myself instinctively, eyes flashing around the restaurant. There were only a few people scattered across tables. No one was paying attention. No one saw what was about to go wrong.Jason’s voice dropped low. “Come on, Andrea. Let’s take this off. It’s ridiculous.”He reached forward, fingers brushing the edge of my collar like he owned me. Like he could just touch and take and do as he pleased.“No,” I snapped, my voice cracking. I stood up

Chapter 66 Jake’s words were comforting, but my emotions were still getting the best of me. My knees stayed folded on the floor, my vision blurred because of the tears in my eyes. My fingers dug into the hem of my blouse like it was the only thing keeping me from falling apart, My eyes were fixed on the floor “Andrea,” he said, not forcing me to look at him. “Hey. It’s okay. You’re okay.”I couldn’t lift my head. Not yet. The tremble in my arms was still too raw, my chest too tight. Jake had said it was okay, but I didn’t feel okay in any way. It broke me to see myself like this. But seeing how Jason harassed me and tried to force himself on me… it was a nightmare.Jake stretched his hand gently removed my hand from the hem of my blouse, and held my hands.“I need you to breathe, alright?” he murmured.I didn’t respond to him.“Andrea,” he called out I finally looked up, tears falling freely down my cheeks. I let out a shaky breath.“Breathe, Andrea,” he said, breathing in through

Chapter 67Claire povThe soft chime of the boutique’s entrance bell echoed through the store.I stepped out of my office, ready to attend to one of my favorite clients who was checking out our latest collection in the dress section. As I walked closer to her, wearing a big smile on my face, my gaze shifted—and there she was.Andrea.Her shoulders were slightly hunched, and her eyes darted around like she was trying to hide whatever storm was going on inside her. My heart skipped a beat—not from worry, but from a flicker of annoyance.Why does she have to come now? I have a client to attend to.Yes, I had told her I wanted to see her, but that was only to cover my tracks. I didn’t want her to suspect that I was the one who told Jason she was wearing a wire. Jason had warned me—strictly—not to let Andrea find out I was the one that tipped him off, I was doing all the work for him and still he wanted to push me aside.And after everything I’ve done for him, he still had the guts to try

Ex-Husband’s Nemesis Finally safe
Chapter 102Poom…Poom…Poom…That was the first thing I heard.Soft. Steady. Like a heartbeat, but outside my body.I didn’t know where I was. My eyes were still closed. Everything felt heavy. My arms, my chest, even my thoughts.But that sound kept going.Poom… poom… poom…Like it was reminding me I was still here.My fingers twitched. The air around me was cold, sterile, but safe. Different.I blinked slowly, once, then again. Light rushed in, too bright at first. My lids fluttered open, and everything looked blurry, like I was underwater.It took a few seconds, maybe more, for things to settle.White ceiling. Pale blue curtains. Machines.The beeping beside me made sense now.A soft weight tugged at my hand. I turned slowly, my head barely shifting. A clear drip was taped into the back of my hand, the IV line running up to a bag hanging beside the bed. My wrist and foot were wrapped. Cleaned. Bandaged.I was in the hospital.I was alive.My chest rose shakily. Tears pricked my eye
Ex-Husband’s Nemesis The Escape
Chapter 101Andrea’s POVI knew something was off the moment I woke up.The mood was different tonight.No footsteps echoed in the hallway, no keys jangled, no harsh voices barked orders. The house was filled with the normal coldness, but it was lively.Beyond the metal door, I heard it. Music. Laughter. The clinking of glasses. Voices muffled but happy.They were celebrating.My stomach turned, not from hunger this time, but anticipation.I stayed still for a moment, my back against the cold wall, heart pounding so loud I was afraid someone might hear it. My wrists were sore and scabbed from the ropes, but my mind was clear and sharper than it had been in days.Something’s different.They hadn’t done their usual check. No footsteps outside my door. No voices. No shadows under the crack.Maybe… maybe this was it.The metal shard I had hidden days ago pressed against my thigh beneath the blanket. My one sliver of hope. I’d been waiting for the right moment. Waiting for the smallest cra
Ex-Husband’s Nemesis Helpless
Chapter 100Jake’s POVThat’s exactly how I felt. Two days—forty-eight damn hours and still no trace of Andrea. Never in my life had I ever felt this restless. I hadn’t had a good night’s sleep since she disappeared. And whenever I did doze off, nightmares followed. The same one every time, Andrea, crying out for help, begging, afraid. I’d jolt awake, drenched in sweat, unsure if the dream was real or not.I poured myself another glass—the third one tonight. The first had done nothing. The second only made my head spin worse. My hands trembled slightly as I lifted the glass.These past few days had forced me to face something I’d been avoiding for a long time—how much I truly cared about Andrea. How much I loved her.Yeah. Love. I hadn’t wanted to admit it before, but this fear, this desperation was the kind of pain that only love brings.I dropped onto the couch and ran a hand down my face. I couldn’t just sit here and do nothing. But what else could I do? We’d already gone to the po
Ex-Husband’s Nemesis The edge of survival
Chapter 99Andrea's pov There was no clock in the room. No window, no sun, no ticking hand to mark the passing of time. But somehow, I knew it had been close to two days. My body told me. The aching bones. The heaviness behind my eyes. The way my stomach twisted and turned—not just from hunger, but from fear.Two nights. Two damn nights.I had slept. I wasn’t sure when or how, but the dreams had been hollow and sharp-edged, like broken glass on repeat. Every time I woke up, I hoped it was all over. That the door would burst open and I’d be rescued from this pain and torture. But no. Same walls. Same cold floor. Same silence.Except when they came.They didn’t speak. They just came in—faces masked, eyes dull—and dropped food like I was some stray they had to keep alive. After the last time I’d tried to run, they no longer untied my hands. One would hold me still while the other brought the spoon to my lips. No words. No looks. Like I wasn’t human. Like I wasn’t even there.My throat b
Ex-Husband’s Nemesis Disappeared
Chapter 98 Jake's pov It had been 24 hours since we had heard nothing from Andrea. No calls, no texts, nothing—no sign. The silence was deafening. Everyone in the house was in a panic. Andrea’s mother had been restless. She sat scrunched on the edge of the couch, her eyes swollen from crying, hands wringing a tissue that had long since given up holding anything back. Her father paced by the window, arms folded tightly, a muscle ticking in his jaw every time his phone lit up with nothing. “Where could she be?” her mother whispered, barely audible over the ticking clock. “What if… something had happened to—” She burst out crying, unable to finish the sentence. Andrea’s father walked to her, holding her hands, trying to console her. “She’s fine, darling. Andrea is a strong girl. Nothing has happened to her. Maybe she needed space. Maybe she’s trying to clear her head.” But even he didn’t believe it. None of us did. I sat there, my leg bouncing uncontrollably, trying to calm the
Ex-Husband’s Nemesis Tied and Terrified
Chapter 97Andrea's pov I jolted awake, my neck aching from the awkward position I’d dozed off in. I must have slept off out of tiredness, or maybe I just wanted to escape this terror so badly. For a fleeting moment, I hoped it was all a nightmare—that if I just closed my eyes and slept, I’d wake up in the comfort of my bed, thinking about the bad dream I had.But reality slapped me faster than any pinch could.I was still here. Still tied. Still trapped.The same damp air filled my lungs. The faint buzz of that godforsaken light above hummed in my ears. I blinked, trying to clear the haze.I shifted slightly. The ropes binding my hands and feet hurt my skin. My mouth was dry, and my stomach growled in protest.“Can I have some water?” I called out weakly.But there was no response.“Is anyone there?” I screamed.Still no response.“Ughhh…” I breathed out in frustration.Time seemed to blur. I had no idea how long I’d been here. Minutes? Hours? A whole day?Panic trickled in slowly—n
Ex-Husband’s Nemesis Where's Andrea???
Chapter 95Jake's pov I checked my watch for the third time in ten minutes.Four hours.Four whole hours.I’d been sitting here, surrounded by wedding gowns and impatient whispers from the boutique staff, waiting for Andrea to walk through that door. But nothing.No call. No text. Nothing.My phone sat heavy in my palm, screen dim. I tapped it, then called again. Her number went straight to voicemail like it had the last four times. I ran a hand through my hair and exhaled slowly, trying to keep calm.Maybe she got stuck in traffic. Or maybe her mum dragged her into something.But something about this—this stillness—wasn’t sitting right.The boutique door finally opened with a jingle. I looked up, half-expecting to see Andrea, annoyed or flustered, maybe rolling her eyes at how late she was. But it was her mum.“Sorry I’m late,” she said, smoothing her purse strap as she walked in. “I had a few things to sort out. So, how many gowns has she tried on?” she asked with a smile as she go
Ex-Husband’s Nemesis Kidnapped
Chapter 95When I opened my eyes, everything felt wrong.The first thing I noticed was the ache in my neck, a pulsing stiffness that crawled down my spine like ice. The second was the bitter sting of rope cutting into my wrists, binding me to the arms of a wooden chair. My legs were tied, too—--- -tight, I couldn’t move. My heart launched itself against my chest.Panic bloomed before I could stop it.Where the hell was I?The room was dim, too quiet. Cold air brushed against my skin—cement floor, no windows. There was a faint hum from somewhere above, like the buzz of a fluorescent light, but nothing else. No footsteps. No distant voices. Just… me.And fear.I tried to remember. The last clear moment was getting into that taxi—yes, I’d told the driver where to go, buckled my seatbelt. Then… the car slowing, a strange silence, and his hand—gloved—pressing something over my nose.A handkerchief.My blood ran cold.“Oh my God,” I whispered, the words scraping out of my dry throat. “No, n
Ex-Husband’s Nemesis The Ride
Chapter 94I was already dressed for work when my Mum knocked on my door.“Andrea,” she’d said in that sugary tone she always used when she wanted something. “Darling, you’re not going to the office today.”I’d stared at her, halfway through buttoning my blouse. “Why not?”She smiled like it was obvious. “Because you have a wedding dress appointment. You’re getting married, remember?”Right. The wedding. The thing that now dictated my entire schedule.And just like that, I was “canceled” for the day.I didn’t argue. There was no point in doing that. So I changed into a more casual dress, trying not to roll my eyes every time I caught my reflection. I just wanted this wedding circus to be over. Honestly, at this point, I didn’t care what gown I wore. I’d walk down the aisle in a paper bag if it meant we could skip the drama and move on.As I adjusted the strap of my sandal, I heard soft footsteps behind me. I turned and froze.“Annabel?”She smiled gently from the doorway, her apron fr
