Within moments, I introduced Noah properly, explaining his work, but then something caught my attention—Mrs. Walton’s gaze lingered on him longer, as if heaven itself existed in his face. There was hunger in her smile, an intent in her eyes that made my stomach knot.

We left the men for their business discussion and entered the hall. A waitress approached, balancing a tray of wine glasses. Mrs Walton reached for the tray and handed me one.

“You even have a handsome husband who's younger than you. My gosh, you really have everything.”

Her words landed like a slap across my face, but I was equally skilled at returning the blow.

“He's the same age as me,” I said, eyes drifting to the wine. It's so eerily similar to the one Noah had brought home days ago.

“Oh really? He is so handsome, very younger than his age,” she murmured.

“Yes,” I replied softly, keeping my gaze locked on the table, trying to hide the storm raging beneath my skin.

“Oh right. Dr. Emma, she's Isabella, my daughter.”

  • Ex-wife Revenge    Chapter 41: The night of reckoning

    It was already past seven in the evening by the time I finished work. I almost went to meet Mia, the address she sent still sitting in my messages, but I could not bring myself to go. The fear of seeing her face, of hearing her accuse me of sleeping with her husband, pressed guilt into my chest like a stone.So instead of meeting her, I chose to meet him at the hotel by eight.The road was chaos. Horns blared endlessly while the red tail lights stretched like a glowing chain through the traffic. My headache pulsed in rhythm with the sound. I gripped the steering wheel tighter, whispering under my breath for the cars to move faster.After a long, heavy drive that felt like forever, I finally pulled into the hotel parking lot. My pulse quickened as I checked my phone. 7:57 p.m. I hated being late.I stumbled out, fixing my jacket tightly around me. The hotel’s warm air brushed against my skin as I stepped inside, my heels clicking on the marble floor with every step. I tried to move qui

  • Ex-wife Revenge    Chapter 40: crossroads at 8pm

    The moment I darted out of Henry’s office, my heels hit the marble floor like a gavel pounding on everything wrong in my life.Each click echoed through the hall — judgment, regret, chaos.By the time I reached the parking lot, my breath was ragged, my pulse wild. I slammed the car door shut and leaned back against the seat, staring at my trembling hands on the wheel.How did I end up here?How could Noah be so broke, so careless with all the money he took from me and the loans? Where is all the damn money going?The engine hummed to life. I pressed the gas, the tunnel lights streaking past my windshield like falling stars.Then — her car.Mia.My chest seized. The sight of her sleek white Audi made my throat tighten.I froze, fingers trembling as I rolled my window up.She was right there, and I couldn’t bring myself to face her. Our cars passed, metal sliding past metal, and for a moment I swear she paused, maybe even looked back. My pulse roared in my ears as I sped out of the tun

  • Ex-wife Revenge    Chapter 39: He saw me

    Dawn crept through the curtains when I collapsed on the couch — the scent of hotel sheets still clinging to my skin. Regret pressed down on me, heavy and sour, but not strong enough to erase the memory of his hands.Fuck. I slept with my friend’s husband — my husband’s friend. There isn’t a word filthy enough for what I’ve become in the name of revenge.The regret came in waves, but it never drowned me. Because this wasn’t on me — it was Noah’s doing. He broke us first. If he hadn't cheated on me and mentioned that I'm no longer desirable, I wouldn't have done that, would I? And it won't repeat itself. All I need now is information about his account and then set the divorce in motion.During the course of my sleep on the couch, my eyes opened to see Noah holding my phone. His gaze was staring at me as if he had noticed something. But I didn't even give a damn about his thoughts since I only did what he had done. I only took a glance and then fell back to sleep. The moment I arrived

  • Ex-wife Revenge    Chapter 38: Room 407

    At a point, a part of me wanted to turn back but the other overcame it. I stood in front of room 407, my hands scratching the card like the way the pain is eating me up. I glance at the lobby, checking if anyone was noticing me. It was all empty. No movement, only me, just Emma. I swallowed hard and leaned forward, scanning the pass card and the pad light green. I press the doorknob and swing the door open. His eyes darted as he saw me at the entrance. My jaw dropped the moment our gaze met. I remain close to the door, a flicker of guilt washing through me. But the next thing I know, my black dress has fallen to my knees, and I am naked except for my heel sandals.My nipples are painfully erect as he looks at me. His blue eyes take their sweet time ravaging my body.Fuck. He hasn't even touched me yet, but I'm already so wet. I step out of my dress, pulling off my heel sandal, and walk towards him. Before I could think, his lips came crashing down on mine. A soft moan escaped me

  • Ex-wife Revenge    Chapter 37: At the hotel with Henry

    I headed inside and washed up, trying to scrub away the heaviness sitting in my chest.Then I slipped into the black outfit — the one that clung to my hips and traced every curve I once believed could make Noah stay.I dusted my skin with Cledbel powder, fixed my lashes, and sprayed myself with perfume — too much of it. I wanted to drown in the scent of someone who still mattered.It took thirty minutes to become the woman I used to be. The woman Noah once desired.Before leaving, my gaze drifted to the lipstick I’d bought weeks ago. I thought everything was about the shade didn't wear, so I got one hoping to catch his attention again. It hadn’t worked, but maybe tonight, it did need to.I picked it up and glided the color across my lips, a trembling breath escaping me as I stared at my reflection.I was beautiful. Still beautiful.And yet, I’d been cheated on — told I was no longer enough. That my beauty had faded like old perfume.A sharp exhale broke through me. I straightened, gr

  • Ex-wife Revenge    Chapter 36: The beginning of my undoing

    Bella’s call was a revival of hope for me — but a shattered one at the same time.She told me she’d been followed by her arrogant boyfriend the night I asked her to check on Noah. He trailed her all the way to the apartment I rented for her, ever since she agreed to help me. He threatened to expose her for spying on Isabella and even took the camera as proof. In the struggle to get it back, he beat her.She sent me her pictures the moment our call ended. My heart tightened seeing the bruises — her once lively face now pale, swollen, and painted with pain.But despite it all, she said she’d managed to build a bond with Isabella — close enough that Isabella had confided the secret of her affair with Noah.So this evening I was ironing clothes, Noah and William sat across each other in the living room. My phone buzzed and Bella’s name popped up the moment the screen light up. I picked it since there were ear pods in my ear. I waited for her to speak before saying anything but the voice t
