His Tears, My Freedom (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back) 163 I want Lila
(Claudia)I was already furious.The entire day had been an earful at the office, hearing about Lila’s launch, her success, her company, her achievements. Everywhere I went, her name followed me like a shadow I couldn’t escape.Then her message arrives.And just like that, my blood is boiling.My eyes burn through the screen as I stare at her words.“Liam was just here with Zara.”My jaw tightens instantly.“But don’t worry, I only treated them to dinner before letting them go, even though Zara didn’t want to leave.”My grip tightens around the phone.“How dare she?” My teeth grind. “How dare she throw this in my face?”Without thinking, I grab my car keys and rush out.I’m driving fast, reckless, her last message replaying in my mind.“But you don’t have to worry… nothing happened between us.”My breathing turns heavy. My grip tightens around the steering wheel as I press harder on the gas.It doesn’t take long before I arrive at Liam’s house.I enter the code and push the door open.

(Lila)"My goodness, Lila, you almost fell!"Zara's voice cuts through the moment.I immediately step back, pulling myself away from Liam.Just then, Zara marches toward us with all the confidence in the world, her tiny hands waving dramatically. "It's all thanks to my daddy that you didn't fall!" she announces proudly. "Because my daddy is a strong man!"She grabs Liam's hand."Thank you, Daddy, for saving Lila and our cookies."A laugh ripples through the kitchen.One of the maids quickly approaches me."Are you okay, ma'am?""Yeah. I'm fine." I force a smile. "You don't have to worry."My gaze shifts.Colette stands by the refrigerator, pulling out a bottle of water.She pauses.Looks at me.Then looks at Liam.The knowing expression on her face makes me want to roll my eyes.She doesn't say a word.She doesn't need to.I already know exactly what she's thinking.I scoff quietly.Then I turn back to the oven."I'll put them in now."Opening the oven door, I slide the tray inside an

Lila’s POVMy phone suddenly vibrates in my hand.The screen lights up.Grandma Margaux.Oh shit.She's calling.For a second, I glance around before forcing a smile onto my face."I need to take this call."They nod immediately."Okay, Amara. Go ahead."With that, I excuse myself and step out of the flagship store, moving into the open space outside.The afternoon breeze brushes against my skin.I pause, looking around.Nothing.No familiar vehicle.No sign of Grandma.No sign that she's anywhere near here.Then why is she calling?A deep sigh escapes me.I quickly swipe to answer."Grandma," I say, placing a soft smile on my face."Don't tell me you're calling to apologize for not being here?""Lila, my child, did you—"Her voice suddenly crackles through the speaker.The words distort into broken fragments.Static buzzes loudly against my ear."...Li...la... can... hear... me..."The connection stutters.Each syllable sounds as though it's being shredded apart before reaching me."G

Lior’s POVA sharp knock sounds against my office door before it bursts open."Lior, we have a problem."I lift my head from the documents scattered across my desk.Dave strides in, his expression tight.My stomach immediately sinks."What problem?" My brows knit together.He doesn't answer right away.Instead, he places a tablet in front of me."The sponsors for our project velocity pulled out."My chair scrapes against the floor as I shoot to my feet."What?"The word explodes out of me."How? Why?”My pulse begins to pound."How did this happen?"Dave exhales heavily.“We’re hearing they’re in talks with RD Corporation.”The room suddenly feels smaller."RD Corporations..."The name leaves my lips in a low murmur.A dangerous one.My jaw tightens.A deep sigh leaving me as I drag a hand through my hair."Set up a meeting with them."I look directly at him."I need to speak with them."Dave's face twists with something close to sympathy."I already tried."My heart drops."But they'

Margaux’s POV“So, how did it go?”My voice is calm, measured, but there is a quiet anticipation beneath it as I look at Vivian.She nods immediately. “The launch was a success.”A small smile curves my lips.Of course it was.She hands me the iPad and I take it, my fingers steady as I swipe through the photos.One after the other.Lila standing at the center of the room.Guests admiring the designs.The displays.The crowd.Her brand.Her world.Each image pulls something warm from deep within me.“I can’t wait for when she finally chooses a brand name,” I say, smiling as Vivian nods.“So tell me,” I continue, “did all her designs make it for today’s launch?”She inches closer. “Yes. I had all the designs she made for the prestige fashion show available for today’s launch, as per your order. And here’s the report about it.”My eyes flick briefly to hers before returning to the screen. She taps lightly, pulling up another page.Analytics.Live reports.Trending feeds.“The internet h

Lila’s POV“Wow, Lila… it’s only been five days since we graduated and you already own a huge flagship to yourself?”Sofia’s voice comes out soft, breathless, filled with pure wonder.I don’t answer immediately.Because from where we’re standing… I can see everything.The upper level curves slightly around the flagship, enclosed in clear glass that overlooks the entire space below. The music drifts up to us, softer here. Muted. Like the chaos beneath us belongs to a different world.People move in and out in a steady flow. Laughter rises. Glasses clink. The soft glow of chandeliers reflects against polished floors as customers already begin picking pieces off racks.My pieces.My brand.My life.“I guess that’s what it takes to be an Armitage, is it?” Enzo adds, lifting his glass to his lips and taking a slow sip, his tone light but laced with something deeper. Something curious. Maybe even a little impressed.“The whole place screams ready, girl. I’m sure you’re going to do amazingly
