Ex- husband pursuit: Winning her back Chapter 48: An attack
Leslie and Michael hadn’t wronged her, and for that, Briella held no resentment. Whatever storm was brewing in her chest wasn’t their fault. So Briella kept whatever pain she carried tucked away. They didn’t deserve her bitterness.“You guys are welcome to join us,” she murmured, her voice soft, slightly above the music in the background. It was all she could manage, pretending to be okay.Hayden’s eyes stayed locked on her. She could feel them burning into her skin, but she didn’t care or acknowledge him at least, that’s what she told herself. Deep down, she blamed him. If their marriage hadn’t fallen apart, maybe… just maybe none of this would be happening and she wouldn't feel so lost.She grabbed the glass in front of her and downed a long gulp of alcohol, letting the bitterness bite her throat. She wanted it to burn, wanted to feel anything other than the ache curled up in her chest.Minutes later, the pressure in her bladder grew.“I need to use the restroom,” she muttered, sett
Ex- husband pursuit: Winning her back Chapter 47: Too exposed
Briella knew that she wasn't safe. Not after what she saw on Jaylen’s phone too.So she drove straight to the C & K law firm. The firm her best friends had built from scratch. A large, bold plaque gleamed at the entrance: C & K Legal Practitioners. It was her first time stepping in.She didn’t call or give them heads up, she just prayed that they should be around because she needed them now.Inside, the place was busy, phones ringing, printers humming, suited staff moving with purpose. It was hard to believe that just a few months ago, this was just a dream over coffee and late-night brainstorming sessions. Now, they are one of the fastest-rising firms here, no news about these ladies being one of the best in London.But she wasn’t here for the success story. She was here because she had nowhere else to go.Kristen’s assistant smiled apologetically. “Someone’s with her at the moment.”Crystal wasn’t around either.Briella sat quietly in the waiting area, hands clasped tightly in her

The Next Morning Jaylen and Briella lay tangled in the sheets, their bodies warm and bare under the soft morning light. Briella stirred first then her eyes opened.Her body felt sore but her limbs ached in the most satisfying way, a dull throb of pleasure nestled between her thighs. The scent of Jaylen filled her nostril, grounding her in a moment she wasn’t ready to leave.Jaylen’s arm was draped lazily over her waist, his breath steady against the back of her neck.She didn’t move, just lay there listening to his steady breathing, feeling the way their fingers had somehow intertwined during the night. Her thumb moved gently over his knuckles.Jaylen mumbled something into her skin, tightening his grip like even in sleep, he didn’t want to let her go.Her lips curved into a smile.She turned to face him, her movement careful. Her eyes traced the sharp lines of his cheekbones, now softened in sleep. The crease between his brows was gone, his lips slightly parted.Her gaze drifted lo

WARNING: This scene contains some explicit content.Briella swallowed an invisible lump in her throat, she didn’t move away nor speak.Because her eyes, which were wide and dark, already answered.His lips hovered just above hers, longing. Her hands slid to his chest, not pulling him, just feeling his heart beat. Their pulse increased with unspoken promises and unhealed pain all mixing into one dangerous desire.“Jaylen…” she whispered.But he was already leaning in.Her breath hitched.His fingers pressed firmer against her waist, pulling her slowly until her body was pressed against his. Her skin burned where he touched her, searing through the thin cotton of her crop top. His hands slid lower, grazing her bare back.Briella tilted her head up just enough for their lips to brush.That was all it took.Jaylen kissed her hard and deep His lips devoured hers, claiming, tasting, breathing her in like a hunger that had been simmering for too long.She melted into him. Her arms wrapped ar

Briella stayed with Jaylen for almost a week now and their bond grew stronger. Unlike before when she didn't feel anything when they kissed, now things have changed. After Briella realised she had been holding back, she decided to set herself free and enjoy the moment because life is too short to waste time.The young girl Jaylen fell deeply in love with was back in full.Later on, Jaylen decided to go to his orphanage home, he missed the children. He hadn’t been there in months and as the founder of the place, he felt bad.Yes, he built an orphanage home long time ago when he realised he was adopted and he situated it in New York- his home town.When he told Briella where he was going. Her face lit up, she was proud of him for giving back to a world that has taken so much from him. She wanted to go along with him and tried to persuade him to let her but it wasn’t safe. Not yet and not with so many shadows still looming.Jaylen called David to come over and he agreed to stay with Brie

The next day, Briella was still fast asleep due to the chaos of the previous day, her body had surrendered to exhaustion falling into a deep healing sleep.Jaylen didn’t disturbed her. Instead, he silenced her phone, placing it gently on the nightstand beside her. She needed the rest and no distraction was necessary at this point.Lex and David had already left earlier. The house was now quiet.In another world, far from the silence of Jaylen’s home, Brian’s name lit up her screen again and again but the phone remained muted and Briella in her slumber was unaware. Brian had been away for nearly a month. It was his idea, after all…“Distance makes the heart grow fonder,” he had said. But now, distance has carved more than space. It had carved silence.Briella had reached out, called and texted him. She heard he was on a business trip. So she didn’t want to burden him further. And now, her girls are here. She didn’t want to bring more weight to their friendship, he had helped her in so
