Ex-Husband’s Nemesis There's always a way
Chapter 114The day had been a busy one. I had a lot of pending work to attend to since I’d been out of the office for a while.I dropped the final folder on my desk and let out a slow breath.“Done,” I whispered to myself, letting the word roll off my tongue like a reward. It felt good to be busy again, not thinking about Jason, Claire, or Mr. Anonymous. Work was the only time my mind felt relaxed.I stood up and stretched my back, hearing a faint crack. I must’ve been sitting for too long.My eyes drifted across the office space, landing on a flower vase Claire had gifted me during one of her visits. I walked over to it, grabbed it angrily, and dumped it straight into the bin—just the same way Claire trashed our friendship. I wanted nothing more than to smash that vase on the ground, but it would only cause a scene.My mind pulled me back to the day Claire barged into this office, looking like the world had collapsed on her shoulders. She asked if I was okay, concerned about the sca
Ex-Husband’s Nemesis Quiet suspicions
Chapter 113Andrea's pov I had a good sleep last night, with no worries in mind, which was surprising to me. After everything that had happened, I didn’t expect to sleep peacefully. Maybe it was because I knew in my heart that Jake was just a door away, and I didn’t need to worry about anyone or anything. It could also be that this place was slowly beginning to feel like home.I stood in front of the mirror as I packed my hair. I was already dressed for work. My heart beat with excitement. I missed working. This whole chaos had taken me away from work, and I was finally resuming duties today. At least I’d be busy and have no time for distractions or worries.Grabbing my bag, I made my way downstairs. My heels clicked softly as I walked through the steps.When i got to the sitting room the smell of pancakes filled the air. My stomach grumbled. My mouth watered in hunger.I turned to the corner trying to know where the aroma was coming from that's when i saw Jake.He was in the dining
Ex-Husband’s Nemesis My promise to her
Chapter 112Jake's povThe moment I got to my room, I laid on my bed and let out a slow breath.My eyes were fixed on a painting in my room of a woman dressed in flowers. It was a beautiful piece, but right now, it reminded me of Andrea.God.I closed my eyes for a second, then opened them again, replaying her in that wedding gown. She looked… breathtaking. Like something out of a dream. No, she looked like an angel walking straight toward me. I hadn’t expected it to hit me so hard, but when she stood beside me and said those vows—even though we both knew it was fake I felt every damn word. Like she meant them. I had to pinch myself to remember it was all part of the plan. I rolled to my side and rubbed my eyes. My mind wandered to last night at the hotel. She probably thought I was asleep when I got out of the bathroom and slid under the covers. But I wasn’t. I had just kept my eyes shut and my breathing loud so she’d think I was already fast asleep, to make her feel at ease. I didn
Ex-Husband’s Nemesis My new home
Chapter 111 Uhhh. I stretched as I opened my eyes. It was morning already. I looked at the window, the whole place was already bright. I must have overslept. I didn’t even know when I dozed off. I noticed Jake wasn’t on the bed. I looked forward and saw him sitting in an armchair, drinking a cup of coffee by the window. “You’re up,” he said. “Yeah,” I muttered, rubbing my eyes. “You must really like the view,” I added, noticing how he was there last night too. “It’s beautiful,” he admitted, setting the cup down on the side table. “You want breakfast?” I shook my head as I stood, brushing my hair out of my face. “No… I need to get moving. I’ve got work tomorrow, remember?” “Right,” he said, watching me closely. “You sure you’re okay?” I gave him a nod that probably looked more convincing than it felt. “Just want to go hom—” I didn’t finish. For a moment, I forgot I'd be going to Jake's house. The “home” I was talking about was my parents’ house. He didn’t say anything. He mus

Ex-Husband’s Nemesis Wedding bells
Chapter 109Andrea's pov My hand was tucked in my father’s arm as he walked me down the aisle, his face beaming with pride.This was really happening.I was getting married… to Jake.I didn’t think I’d be nervous. Especially with way I was running my mouth the other day in Jake’s apartment, anyone would think I had everything under control. Like I was sure and had no second thoughts.But now, walking down the aisle, the weight of it all settled in.This was real. It wasn’t just some plan anymore, it was now a reality.The hall wasn’t anything grand. Just my parents, Paul, Annabel, and a few close relatives. Jake had no one. He’d already told my parents his parents were both dead. The only family he had left was Jason, his stepsister, and stepmother, And we all knew none of them were welcomed to come.Jake didn’t count them as family anyway.As we got closer, I looked up at him.He looked… perfect.Clean-cut suit, sharp jawline, that same calm expression he always wore. But his smil
Ex-Husband’s Nemesis Wake up call
Chapter 108Jake’s pov Andrea was right.Giving up wasn’t the best option, hell, it never was. But that hadn’t crossed my mind over the past few days. I’d locked myself away in this place, drowning in regret, pacing the floor like it held answers, blaming myself for not moving fast enough.But what truly ate me alive deep down, past the failed plans and lost inheritance, was that I hadn’t seen her.Not since that day at the hospital.I’d walked out, convinced it was the right thing. Leave her be. Let her heal without me. I told myself she didn’t need me told myself she’d be better off. That I’d only remind her of what we lost.But that wasn’t what broke me.I missed her.I missed the sound of her voice. Wondering if she was getting better. If she could sleep through the night, or if Claire’s betrayal kept her up. I wondered if she hated me for disappearing.And still, I couldn’t bring myself to go to her.I thought removing myself was some twisted act of kindness. But maybe that w
Ex-Husband’s Nemesis No Retreat
Chapter 107“Why are you here, Andrea?” Jake said.The look of surprise had already faded from his face. Now, he just looked blank, expressionless.“You’re answering my question with a question,” I said sharply. “I asked you something. What happened to you?” He stepped aside and let me in without a word. His silence said more than anything else could. The house felt colder than I remembered, dim, unbothered, like no one had opened the curtains in days. I walked in slowly, glancing around. The air felt heavy. There was a plate on the coffee table, half-eaten, untouched for hours from the looks of it. The couch had a throw blanket bunched up at one end. I could tell he’d been sleeping there. He looked like hell. My heart cracked seeing him this way, but I wasn’t here to feel that way. I shoved the sympathy down and braced myself. I turned to him as he shut the door. “So, are you going to tell me what the hell is going on, or should I start guessing?” Jake rubbed the back of his ne
Ex-Husband’s Nemesis Missing piece
Chapter 106 Andrea’s POV I got discharged the day after I saw the news about Claire and Jason’s wedding. My parents were bent on me staying longer. They even told the doctor and nurses to convince me to stay another week, but I had already made up my mind. There was no way I was going to lie in that hospital bed for another second, feeling the sting of betrayal crawling under my skin. I needed to be out of there. I needed to breathe. In the end, my parents saw it too, they knew I had made up my mind. So they gave in. And today makes it one week since I came home. My injuries are almost fully healed. For the past week, I’ve been thinking. Trying to come to terms with everything. Trying to accept the truth that Claire never really cared for me. I should’ve known. I should’ve suspected something when that wire incident happened at the restaurant with Jason. But I didn’t. I was too blinded by the love I felt for her, too loyal. Too trusting. What a fool I was. Claire was never
