[Asher]

I was driving like a madman.

My chest tightened as a thousand questions tore through my head.

Why would Vienna tell the nanny not to let me know?

Why rush our son to the hospital and keep it from me?

The thought alone made my heart twist painfully.

My mother’s voice echoed in my head from a few weeks ago —

"Asher, doesn’t Darian look a little pale to you?"

I’d brushed it off then, saying he was fine.

I swallowed hard, my grip tightening on the steering wheel as I swerved sharply to the right. My pulse hammered against my throat.

A breath I didn’t realize I’d been holding escaped when the hospital building finally came into view.

I slammed the brakes, barely threw the gear into park before I was out of the car and running. My shoes hit the pavement hard, adrenaline burning through my veins.

Inside, the smell of antiseptic filled my lungs. My fingers dug into my palms as I approached the receptionist. She gave me directions, and I barely waited for her to finish before heading

  • Ex-husband, You Broke The Wrong Woman    Chapter 121 - Have you known him before now?

    [Raphael]I didn't want to talk to her about it but I needed to be sure.I needed to make sure what I read was right, because if so, then heaven and hell help Asher Langston.I will make sure I reduce him to nothing.I will make his life so miserable that he will wish he had never existed, and to the one who was by his side? Vienna? I learnt that she was the daughter of Elena's adoptive parents.I stared at the files in front of me for the umpteenth time just as I ended the call with Elena.My eyes darted around every detail on it.She was married to Asher in a contract and they put her through all of this?Elena had told the story, told us everything that happened, but she refused to call names. What I wasn't expecting was for it to be the man I had just made her sign a contract with.A contract that she can not withdraw from because of its terms and conditions, but that doesn't mean that I'll allow her anywhere close to him."You can't conclude this yet. Asher might not be the one s

  • Ex-husband, You Broke The Wrong Woman    Chapter 120 - What's with your voice?

    [Elena]"Are you sure you're okay now?" Mom asked just as I came down the stairs. Her brows were creased, her eyes darting over every inch of me like she was expecting to find something broken.I hadn’t left the house since the incident, but I couldn’t keep living like this—locked in, fragile, afraid. I was still shaken, yes, but I had a life. If I didn’t try to suppress the fear and move forward, it would swallow me whole."I'm fine, Mom. I have to go to work," I murmured, and she looked at me like I’d said something absurd before finally nodding.Yesterday was her and my late father's anniversary—the one we’d been planning for weeks—but she had to scale it down, worried sick about me. Even when I insisted I was fine and begged her to celebrate as planned, she refused. The whole thing was smaller, quieter because of me."The guard and the driver will take you anywhere you want to go for now, alright?""Sure, Mom, that’s fine. I need to leave now. A lot is waiting for me—Aurora’s alre

  • Ex-husband, You Broke The Wrong Woman    Chapter 119 - Why?

    [Elena]It’s been two days since the incident, and even when I tried to convince my family that I was fine, I knew I wasn’t.I could pretend to act strong, but that was all it was — a performance. Inside, I was anything but okay."Has Raphael found who was behind it?" Natalia’s voice pulled me back to the present.I shook my head, pressing my lips together. "He hasn’t," I mumbled.Her face filled my phone screen, and I could already see the frustration in her eyes. She was still upset that I’d told her not to come to Boston. The moment she heard what happened, she wanted to fly down immediately."Why do I have this feeling that Asher or Vienna is behind this?" She asked.I sighed. Talking about Vienna made my blood heat — that witch could truly stoop low — but Asher? He was the only reason I was alive. What if that man had found me before Asher did? What would have happened?Even though I wouldn’t admit it to his face, I was grateful he’d found me in time."Elena? Can you hear me?" Na

  • Ex-husband, You Broke The Wrong Woman    Chapter 118 - I'll never forgive you!

    [Asher]"Her brother is there now so I'm very sure she'll be fine," I mumbled under my breath, tightening my grip on the steering wheel.Hell, I wanted to stay longer —I wanted to be right there with her —and even when I knew she was safe with her brother, I just wanted to know exactly what happened.Who tied her up? And why the hell would someone tie her up? That was the things I so much need answers to and fuck all I want to do is make sure whoever did that to her would not live to see the next sunlight.My jaw clenched as I tried pushing the thoughts aside. I'm sure Raphael would be able to resolve whatever issue that is.I swallowed hard as I swerved my engine into the hospital lot.I took a slow, deep breath, tightening my hand on the steering wheel before turning off the engine.I stepped out and made my way inside the hospital. I still needed to make sure Vienna isn't mad anymore.Even when I was trying to save Elena, it was absolutely wrong of me to leave my wife in the middle

  • Ex-husband, You Broke The Wrong Woman    Chapter 117 - I'll find them!

    [Elena]"Your brother will be here any moment. I’ll be leaving now," Asher said, handing me a glass of warm water.I took a small gulp and set the glass down, my fingers trembling slightly against the bedside table.My gaze lingered on him longer than it should have. I was still trying to wrap my head around the fact that this Asher—the same man who once turned his back on me—was the one who brought me to a hospital and stayed until I woke up.I didn’t even know how to feel about it. Gratitude? Confusion? Anger? It was all muddled together in my chest, pressing like a knot. So, I just nodded. A small, hesitant nod.Before I could stop myself, the words slipped out of my mouth."Thank you," I muttered under my breath.His brow creased—barely—but I caught it before he smoothed it over.He gave a short nod, and for a moment I thought that was it—that he’d walk out the door without another word. But then his footsteps shifted, slow and deliberate, and he started walking toward me instead.

  • Ex-husband, You Broke The Wrong Woman    Chapter 116 - Hospital

    [Raphael]I am Raphael Thorne, for heaven’s sake.One of the richest men in Boston. I could find anyone, get any information within seconds. But why was I right here for more than ten miserable hours, not having a clue where my only sister was?My mother was losing it. She knew something was wrong. She kept calling and I kept ignoring because I had nothing to tell her.I swallowed hard, jaw clenched, pacing the length of my living room with my phone pressed to my ear.I’d sent every one of my men out, but none had come back with anything solid. Every update was the same useless line. No sighting. No lead. Nothing.The footage I’d requested from the area had been wiped clean. Not missing. Not corrupted. Wiped. That made everything worse. Whoever did this was smart and deliberate.And then there was her phone. Left in her car.Someone had taken my sister. There was no other explanation.But who?Who the hell would dare?I’d promised her I wouldn’t dig into her past. She wanted to move o
