KRISTINE'S POV

I stayed silent as I contemplated my thoughts but then Amelia queried me again. She just couldn't help it, could she?

"What are we going to do, Kristine?"

"What do you mean what are we going to do about what?" I snapped, my eyes reflecting annoyance. My frustration was already simmering and her incessant questioning was only adding to my anger.

However, she replied. "About Him. Sebastian. He's back. That can't be a coincidence... It can't be. He must have discovered our whereabouts somehow." She stated, worry laden in her voice.

With a weary sigh, I turned away from her, unsure of what to say. I was indeed troubled. I felt a whirlpool of emotions at that moment - Anger, anxiety, and confusion. However, the thing I was more concerned about was my upcoming speech, which I'd have to deliver in thirty minutes.

But how could I possibly perform well when I felt so disoriented in this moment? My thoughts were all over the place and I could barely get a grip of myself. Sebastia

    KRISTINE'S POV.I struggled to break away from his piercing gaze, my heart racing and my throat feeling parched suddenly. I momentarily lost track of everything until Amelia's voice snapped me back to reality."Kris, are you still with me?" It was then that I regained my focus, my gaze wavering as I finally managed to pull away from Sebastian's intense stare.Gosh, that was close.With my heart still pounding in my chest, I tried to steady my voice as I spoke to Amelia. "I'll call you back later, Amelia. I'm already at Mia's school to pick her up.""Since when do you end our calls just to pick up our daughter, Kristine? That's unusual."I swallowed hard, knowing she had seen through me, but I remained undeterred. "I’ll call you back later, okay? Goodbye for now," I replied. She was about to argue, but I quickly disconnected the call, my heart racing as I realized Amelia would be furious I had done that. Yet, I knew she wouldn’t back down until I took action myself.Sighing in frustra

    KRISTINE'S POVThe moment the lunch break alarm sounded, I quickly wrapped up my tasks, shutting down my computer before rising to my feet.The conversation I had with Dave just a few minutes ago still lingered painfully in my heart, causing my chest to tighten with heartbreak, but I forced myself to set the feelings aside. Now wasn't the time for all that.Grabbing my bag from my desk, I made my way out of the office to pick up Mia from school.As I walked towards the elevator, my thoughts were still consumed by my interaction with Dave. No matter how hard I tried to push it away, the memories kept flooding back and I couldn't help it.I felt a wave of sadness wash over me, still grappling with his cold silence. It wasn't fair; I hadn’t done anything wrong. However, I refused to resort to begging or appearing desperate for his love. I had been down that path before, and it hadn't ended well. I'd never repeat that mistake again. Heaven forbid a lady like me becomes a simp because of a

  • HIS REGRET; Chasing back his rejected ex-wife    044 ~ The rift between us.

    KRISTINE'S POV.It had been two days since Dave's encounter with Sebastian. Also two days since he'd returned to Puwak City, yet I had barely gotten a hold of him. He hadn't bothered to visit me after his return. He only settled for texting and calling to check up on me at least once a day. Now, I found that unusual, given this was the first time he was behaving this way towards me, especially since I was already accustomed to his usual special treatment whenever he returned from any business trip in the past.Seated behind my desk at the office, my heart ached as I pondered my musings. I couldn't shake off the feeling that Dave might be avoiding me. It all started from the day he had informed me about his bad experience with Sebastian. Ever since then, there's been changes in the way he talked to me.Even though he tried to mask his true feelings whenever we spoke on the phone, I couldn't help but notice the little changes. Like how I could sense he couldn't wait for our conversatio

  • HIS REGRET; Chasing back his rejected ex-wife    043 ~ Family Pressure

    SEBASTIAN'S POV After a moment’s hesitation, a laugh escaped me as I processed his words, my head shaking in disbelief. He stared back at me, his gaze completely expressionless. I tilted my head up to meet his eyes, the humor fading from my face as I asked, "Are you trying to threaten me or something?""Call it however you see fit," Jamie replied sharply. "Just offering a friendly warning, brother."I scoffed at the ridiculousness of his statement. I couldn't believe this. "How can you just walk in here and threaten me?" I challenged, my irritation evident. "Have you lost your mind by chance, brother?" I couldn’t understand how he believed he could come in here and make threats towards me like I was some weak-ass rival. While I respected him greatly, there were lines I wouldn’t let him or anyone else cross. Threatening me was one of them."Listen here, Seb. You really don’t stand a chance when it comes to inheriting the fortune; you do know that, right?" Jamie started, leaning in

    SEBASTIAN'S POV After what felt like an eternity, I finally cracked the code. Merely two days of scrutinizing the sales record, I uncovered the culprit behind the chaos. I couldn't believe it was one of my subordinates who had done this, but then again, such is life. We all get betrayed at some point by the people we thought we could trust the most. "Get Martins in here immediately!" I instructed Chris, who had been lingering in my office for direction. "Right away, boss," he replied sedately before dashing out.My hands balled into fists as I gazed at the screen of the computer that reflected my trusted employee's disloyalty and foolishness. Did he seriously think he could get away with stealing without me finding out?My annoyance grew as I awaited the arrival of the traitor. "I'm really sorry, boss." Martins pleaded as he entered my office, immediately facing my wrath. He sank to his knees, begging for my forgiveness and trying to justify the reason he had done what he did. Ho

    KRISTINE'S POV"Wait, what?" I was dumbstruck, disbelief rippling through me in waves. My eyes shone with bewilderment as I absorbed what Dave had just told me. "Yeah, what a coincidence, right?" He let out a scoff, frustration dripping from his words.Stunned to silence, I tried to ponder this revelation. This was definitely a fucking coincidence and I never would have imagined something like this could happen. Dave had gone all the way to Clasold City to sign a contract, only to find out my ex was the boss in charge? What kind of twist was this?" I-I don't understand," I managed to mutter, still reeling with shock. "How? How is this even possible?" I was so confused, at a loss for words. Dave went ahead to narrate his ordeal and how he had been clueless that Sebastian was the CEO, not until he had been escorted into Sebastian's office. He also told me how Sebastian had humiliated him before declining the request to become partners with him."He gave me an ultimatum, Kristine." D
