Ex Wife Strikes Back Chapter 16
ADELINE“You came to pick me up?” I let out a scoff, arms crossed. “Cole. We haven’t seen each other in what, four years? Five? And this is how you reintroduce yourself?”“Four years, seven months.” He said it without blinking. “Not that I was counting.”“You were counting.”“Maybe a little.”God, he hadn’t changed at all. Still that same insufferable grin that used to talk his way out of every mess in college.“Unbelievable.” I muttered.His smile faded, just slightly, hands sliding into his pockets.“I’m sorry. For leaving without saying goodbye. That wasn’t fair to you.”I blinked. I wasn't expecting that. Not today, of all days, when I’d already used up my quota of unexpected blows for the week.“It’s fine.” I said, even though it wasn’t, even though I cried myself stupid for weeks after he vanished and never once got an answer why.“It’s not fine.” He shook his head. “I just couldn’t say it to your face back then.”“And now you can?”“I kept tabs on you.” He admitted. “Not in a c

Adeline“Boss, are you okay?" Nova asked again at the sound of my laptop slamming and I looked up at her, I'm sure the way my heart was beating, she could hear the rhythm from across the room.“It's nothing. I just made a mistake." I rasped and she peered at me.“When you lie, you get still. You're very still right now. Plus, you're killing your burrito and you haven't touched your pan au Chocolat.” I looked down immediately.I was indeed squeezing my burrito to death. I dropped it immediately and dusted my hands like I got some dirt on them.I need to go home.I need a break."Just a spam email. And everything going on is getting to me.” I said, glossing over the detailsIt wasn't exactly a lie but it wasn't the whole truth.“Alright. And something came in the mail too." She said, her eyes widening like she had forgotten to even talk of that when she came in.That reminds me, I had seen her with a file when she was coming in, and I had wanted to ask her about it.I guess I was too en

AdelineAfter leaving Noah ’s–my fathers company, I headed directly to my own company. That was the only one that Noah didn't know about and I was glad that it remained that way. If not, I probably would be battling how to take back just another company from Noah .“Boss, I did an in depth check into all of the companies affiliated to the group as you requested and we realised that most of them have been bought by different anonymous buyers. The remaining of the companies which were not sold had a large number of shares sold out.” It felt like my head was spinning.Those were years of hard work.Nights of endless creativity that Noah decided to sell out all in his ploy against me. When exactly did it start? When exactly did he start detesting me? The more I tried to think, the more my brain hit a dead end.If all of this didn't unfold very quickly, I wouldn't have known that Noah actually hated me.It never showed. I never would have been able to guess and you know what? That was

AdelineI just stared at him, trying my best not to roll my eyes, knowing that all eyes were waiting for my reaction. The last thing I would want was for rumours to start sparking and it turned out to be i and Rye’s name in one sentence.I needed to divorce Noah and to succeed, I needed to remain clean as ever.But my instincts told me that Rye knew that. And that was the reason he was trying to pull this stunt, if rumours that i cheated on Noah with Rye, I would never have a say if Noah sued.“Back to what I was saying, Miss Adeline will be taking over as CEO till further notice.” Everyone clapped because as I repeat, who would actually question his decisions? What was he even playing at, at this point? If it were someone else, I would say they pulled all this stunt just to help me but knowing Rye, something had to give.“For now, this meeting is dismissed. You may leave.” There was a bit of rowdiness as everyone pulled out of their seats and began walking out. I stared at him a bi

Adeline ‘What the fuck are you talking about?” Noah almost screamed, signaling to the security guards who had been alerted to report into the boardroom.“Hold on! Nikolai Rye Sterling? The heir to the Sterling group?” One of the board members exclaimed and the guy from earlier, the one that had brought the flower bouquet over stepped forward.Funny.I hadn't seen when he had even walked into the meeting room again after earlier. And what did he mean by saying that he was the new CEO.That is just ridiculous. I turned to Noah and he looked as confused as confused could get. He didn't even know what was going on either, it was all visible that he didn't know what was going on either.Well, this is quite crazy.“He… either ways, what the hell are you–” “Our ceo has the highest number of shares currently, so if there's anyone that is to be appointed ceo, it should be him.” the guy muttered and I felt a wave of exhaustion run down my spine.Just how many people did I need to deal with an

Adeline“Who?” I and Nova asked in jinx and the guy just stared at us like he was even surprised we’d ask such a question. I turned to Noah.He bought me flowers? Wait. No. Sterling? There was only one Sterling I knew. Only one sterling that would derive joy in pulling this kind of stunt. “Your husb–” “Don't you dare finish that statement. Take that back to your boss and tell him to stop being a creep.” I shut him down immediately. He looked totally taken aback like he hadn't expected that would actually come out of my mouth. I can swear to every star that Nikolai must have told him that i was his wife without any context given. This guy looked totally star struck. “Mrs Sterling, I really can't take this flower back. My boss would totally kill me.” He pleaded, taking a few steps towards me and placed the flower right in front of me.“I-”“So you were indeed cheating on me huh?” Noah questioned, his voice low as it could get while his eyes darkened with murderous intent.“Mrs Adel
