"Tell me you're joking right now!" Natalia snapped on the phone.

My jaw clenched, my fingers dug into my palms as I stared at the screen. "I wish I were joking. That's exactly what happened."

"That fucking psychopath. What the hell does he want from you?"

"I asked the bastard the same question. I fucking asked him. I could have read the signs Nat, I could have. Even Aurora noticed that something was wrong with the man. The way he was just so eager to work with us. And trying to make everything round up as soon as possible."

Natalia scoffed, her hand dragging over her face. "You don't get to blame yourself. There's no way you could have known that he was the one behind it."

"Nat, you needed to see how he was trying to act oblivious. But it was written all over his face that he knew about this."

"His ego was bruised that you refused to work for Langston Holdings. That's the only way I can explain this madness. Because he could clearly get any decorator he wants so why you?"

  • Ex-husband, You Broke The Wrong Woman    Chapter 127 - You know what you did!

    [Elena]Everything else Asher said didn’t register. The only thing I could hear was just one word."Does it still hurt that I didn't choose you?"My head spun so hard the room felt like it tilted.I bit down on my inner cheek until the sharp sting cut through the haze and the metallic tang of blood spread across my tongue. His words replayed in my skull as I stared at the man standing in front of me.This was the same man I’d been worried sick about—wondering what Raphael might do to him. It shouldn’t have been my business. I’d been telling myself that for the past two days, repeating it like a damn mantra. But no matter how many times I tried to shut it out, it echoed. Again. And again.And this bastard dared to storm into my office, stand in front of my employees, and spew trash like he owned the place?"Have you suddenly gone dumb?" His voice snapped me back. I blinked, slowly raising my eyes to his. "What stupid lies did you tell your brother? Do you have any idea what the hell yo

  • Ex-husband, You Broke The Wrong Woman    Chapter 126 - Does it still hurt?

    [Asher]"What the fuck are you talking about?" My hand slammed against the desk as I tried to make sense of what the hell was going on.But he said nothing. Silence.My jaw clenched, my lips pursed and just when I opened my mouth to speak, Raphael's voice cut through. "Asher Langston, you and that thing you call a wife messed with the wrong person!" And just like that the line went dead.I stood still right in the middle of my office, trying to calm the fury brewing inside me but it felt impossible.My chest heaved, my hand tightened on my phone as I tried to comprehend what the hell was going on and it suddenly clicked.The day you made my sister shed a tear.His sister, Elena? Wait a damn minute.What did Elena tell Raphael?I swallowed so hard my throat hurt. My hand trembled. I was beginning to see red.A low chuckle left my lips, and before I knew it, I was dialing back Raphael's number.Once. Twice. And up until the fifth ring, it went straight to voicemail.I picked up my car

  • Ex-husband, You Broke The Wrong Woman    Chapter 125 - What are you talking about?

    [Asher]A few days later..."What do you mean they’re all withdrawing?" My voice came out clipped, colder than I intended.James shifted on his feet, the hesitation in his eyes doing nothing to calm the fire building in my chest."What the hell is going on?" I demanded.Before he could respond, a knock came on my door. One of my managers stepped in, his face pale, his hand shaking around the tablet he was holding."Sir…" He swallowed hard, his voice low but urgent. "All our major shareholders are pulling out—almost at the same time. And our stock… It’s dropping fast. Like someone hit a switch."For a moment, silence. Then James and I locked eyes.He knew. I knew. This wasn’t random.Something was wrong. Terribly wrong."Sir, this—this has never happened before," the manager stammered. "Even during the scandal two years ago, the selloff wasn’t like this. This feels… orchestrated.""Something’s definitely wrong," I snapped, running a hand through my hair, the weight of it pressing down

  • Ex-husband, You Broke The Wrong Woman    Chapter 124 - I do not care!

    [Elena] Thirty minutes later, a knock came at my door. "Come in," I said softly and the door swung open. My lips pressed into a small smile as I watched Cassie look ever so beautiful making her way in. "Hey friend." Cassie purred. I rose to my feet and circled the table just as she stretched out her arms. "Welcome," I mumbled, giving her a side hug before ushering her to sit. I walked back to my seat and settled down, turning to stare at one of the most beautiful women I've ever met. "So here we are? The newest resident of Boston." I teased and Cassie waved her hand, smiling. "I moved in two days ago like I told you, and of course, I wanted to come see you as soon as possible. I already missed you." "Urgh, that's so sweet. I missed you too." Her brow furrowed for a second as she stared at me, her lips pressed together and just as I was about to ask if everything was okay, she cut me off. "Are you okay?" My brow creased. "I am, why?" She leaned a bit closer, placing her hand

  • Ex-husband, You Broke The Wrong Woman    Chapter 123 - What exactly?

    [Elena]"No, like fucking no girl! Tell me you're joking, that's what I want to hear you say right now!" Natalia snapped on the phone.My lips pursed as my eyes flicked toward the door Raphael had walked out of just a few hours ago.When I didn't say anything to Nat, her voice came again now louder. "Listen, Elena, you're my best friend, and I swear I'm trying so fucking hard not to hang this call and do what you'll hate me for. What the hell do you mean by you told him to let it go?""Nat, please, you should understand what I mean, I...""I don’t understand a damn thing. There’s a difference between you not letting them know and now that they know who the hell those bastards are!" Natalia snapped, and I clamped my mouth shut."Do you want me to remind you what those two people did to you?""Nat, don't do that. That's not what I'm talking about, you should know I want to let this all go. It's in the past!""No it's not. And even if you don't want to hear it I'm going to say it. That b

  • Ex-husband, You Broke The Wrong Woman    Chapter 122 - Let it go

    [Elena]The moment my brain registered what my brother just asked, every part of my body went still.My lips parted to say something, but I snapped them shut.This was different.Different from the first time he had asked if I knew Asher. Raphael didn't have that kind of look on his face right now, and that can only mean one thing. He knows!But how? Did he...I mean did he really dig into my past?"What do you mean?" I mumbled, my hand slipping from the table and clutching my dress underneath my desk. "What do you mean if I've known him before now?"His brow furrowed for a second. I could see the way his jaw clenched for a second before he released it. "It's just a question, Princess. Have you known him before now? And when? What was your relationship with him if you had?"My heart skipped.One part of my mind whispered that this might be a harmless question. He could just be asking out of curiosity or anything but another part of my mind knew better.From the way he sounded on the ph
