Ex- husband pursuit: Winning her back Chapter 84: The plot
One week laterBriella sat on the couch trying to lose the ribbon wrapped around a large box. Hayden’s handwriting was on a small card and it read.. For the most beautiful baby girl. And for a second she almost laughed because she hasn't even started shopping for her baby. He had said he was getting something for her baby, she didn't know he was actually serious.They’d been talking since the mess with Hilda. Just casual conversations and nothing too deep. Even though his answer when she asked if he would want to be with a woman who was carrying another man's child was that he didn't care if the child wasn't his and all that matters is that she just accepted him.Briella was suprised at his answer but she had told him flat out that they could only be friends. That night, Hayden was hurt and heartbroken but he didn’t argue, he told her he wouldn’t stop loving her the way she deserved, whether she let him or not.Briella snapped out of her thought as she continued to peel the back of

“I just figured it out… so it's really true?“ Briella replied.Brian brushed it off with a faint smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes.“Don’t worry about me,” he said. “I’ll handle it.”Briella tilted her head, studying him. “Brian… that’s all you ever say. I’ll handle it. But you’re not fine, and we both know it.”He avoided her gaze.“Look at me,” she pressed gently. “We’ve known each other too long for you to shut me out. You say you’re handling it, but the weight’s still in your eyes. Talk to me... how are you going to.. your parents are insisting you marry her and her parents too.. From all these, it seems she likes you.”For a moment, Brian’s expression changed, like he was fighting words he couldn’t bring himself to release. Finally, he let out a long, uneven breath.“I wish things were different,” he said softly. “That’s all.”The room seemed to still.“Different how?” Briella whispered.His eyes moved up to hers, he wanted to confess his feelings right there and then but he

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.Then before her courage could vanish, she pressed the call button.The phone rang once, twice and thrice.Her pulse increased, each second heavier than the last. If he didn’t answer, maybe it would be easier. Maybe she could convince herself she had tried.On the fourth ring, the line clicked. Silence. Then his voice, low, rough and uncertain.“Briella…”Her throat tightened, tears threatening, but she steadied her voice.“Hayden?” she whispered.“I’m sorry Briella,” he said, his tone ragged and almost breaking. “I didn’t mean to drag you into the spotlight. I just wanted you to see I’d do anything to get you back. I really love you, and I can’t let go.”Her heart leapt and stumbled all at once. She had never been this speechless in her life.“You’re trending because of me,” Hayden continued, his words filled with guilt. “I know you hate the attention. You’ve always loved your privacy. Just… Please, don’t hate me more for this.”“Hayden.” He

Hayden entered his car and took out a pack of cigarettes he hadn’t touched in months and lit a stick.His phone buzzed repeatedly in his pocket. Notifications piling up one after the other, news outlets, gossip blogs, investors, even his board of directors. He didn’t need to open them to know what they were saying.#CEO Linford admits to infidelity on livestream.#Hilda Bennet humiliated at a public proposal.#Briella Milton, the ex-wife at the center of it all.Briella’s name and face were everywhere again because of him.He crushed the cigarette under his shoe and cursed low. What the hell had he done?Michael’s words came back to him: “What are you going to do about it now?”What could he do?If he went to Briella now, she might slam the door in his face. Or worse, she might look at him with those calm, unshaken eyes, tell him she had moved on, and prove that his confession had been too little or too late.And yet… his heart beat with a stubborn certainty he hadn’t felt in years. S
Ex- husband pursuit: Winning her back Chapter 80: All for her
“Hayden stop this, believe me, tell them it’s fake!” She cried.But Hayden only tightened his grip on her hand, raising it into the air for everyone to see. His voice rang out, merciless.“This is the woman I almost gave everything to,” he said. “The woman who thought she could manipulate me, betray me, and walk away untouched.”The audience was a storm now, phones camera still flashing, voices muttering in shock.Hayden’s voice dropped lower, cut into the livestream that thousands were watching.“You wanted a proposal, Hilda?” He leaned close enough that only she could feel the venom in his tone. Then, straightening as he let the venom drip.“Here’s mine: I propose you get punished for everything you’ve done.”And with that, the lights shifted. From the back of the venue, men in black suits moved forward, their badges flashing as the police stepped into view.The crowd screamed, chaos breaking out. The live comments exploded again.Hilda’s eyes locked on Hayden as if he’d stabbed her

7:01pm. Fairytale garden.The place shimmered under strings of multicolored lights, the evening breeze cool. Laughter and murmurs filled the serene space, a soft piano melody playing from hidden speakers. Guests turned their heads as Hayden and Hilda walked in, hand in hand, a picture of poise and elegance.Hilda’s smile lit up her face. She thought it was just another of Hayden’s quiet dinners, one of his unpredictable dates. But the second she saw the balloon and the glittering golden letters **WILL YOU MARRY ME?**She gasped, covering her mouth. Her knees trembled, then her hand flew to her chest.She had been expecting his proposal but not so soon and definitely not like this.The cameras flashed. The guests clapped. Phones tilted up to catch every angle, the moment was already being streamed live.On the projector, images flickered to life, Hayden holding her waist at a gala, her laughing into his shoulder at the beach, his hand lingering on hers during a dinner.
