[Mercedes]

My heart nearly stopped beating, following what I just saw!

My eyes blinked uncontrollably as my mind spiraled into chaos.

The weight of everything happening around me was becoming too much to bear.

All around the hall, people were already raising their phones and recording videos of the unfolding drama.

Their faces were filled with shock and disbelief as their cameras remained fixed on the projector screen, capturing every second of the humiliation I was being forced to endure.

  • His Ugly Ex-wife Returns As A Beautiful CEO    30. What Do You Mean By That?

    [Mercedes]The question I asked my mother came purely from a place of shock.I wasn't expecting to see her there.In fact, the moment I saw her standing before me, I was completely stunned.Genevieve Salvacion.My mother.A woman of average height, yet commanding enough to make everyone around her feel small. Even at the age of forty-two, she remained elegant, rich, luxurious, and breathtakingly beautiful.She was not a woman who tolerated nonsense.She was powerful.Influential.Respected.In fact, most of the fame I enjoyed today came because I was known as the daughter of the former Beauty Queen.And my mother?Whenever her expression became this dark and disappointed, it always meant one thing.Something had happened.Something serious.Usually, it involved an attack on her reputation or the reputation of our brand.But what I couldn't understand was why she was looking at me that way.Why was she so angry that she had actually raised her hand against me?For the first time in ove

  • His Ugly Ex-wife Returns As A Beautiful CEO    29. Genevieve Salvacion

    [Mercedes]Everything happened so fast that I barely realized when that bitch, Mia, gained the upper hand and slammed me to the ground.Thank God Felix showed up when he did. Otherwise, she would have completely ruined my face with those vicious punches she kept throwing.Right now, I was seated inside Felix's car as he drove me home.Or at least, that was what I thought.Ever since we got into the car, Felix hadn't said a single word to me. I had tried several times to start a conversation, but each attempt was met with silence.The atmosphere inside the car was suffocating.For what felt like forever, neither of us spoke.Then, just as we approached our neighborhood, Felix suddenly took a left turn instead of the usual right.My brows knitted together.He was supposed to be driving us home, but he had just driven straight past our mansion.Confused, I turned to him."What's going on, Felix?" I asked. "Why did you drive past the house?"No response.I stared at him, expecting an answ

  • His Ugly Ex-wife Returns As A Beautiful CEO    28. Levels Have Changed

    [Mia]Mercedes's grip was merciless—tight, brutal, and suffocating. I could practically feel strands of my hair being ripped from my scalp.A painful groan escaped my lips as the agony intensified.“Let go of me, Mercedes!”But she was too consumed by anger—perhaps even pride—to listen.“Who the hell do you think you are, huh?” she snapped. “You think you can talk to me however you want and walk away scot-free? I'll teach you a lesson you'll never forget for as long as you live on this earth!”Her fingers tightened even more around my hair.The pain shot through my head, making my eyes sting.Around us, people had already pulled out their phones, recording every second of the chaos unfolding before them. Meanwhile, Mercedes continued dragging me by the hair, yanking so hard as though she intended to tear it completely off my head.This bitch really thinks she has all the power, huh?Maybe it's time for someone to humble the so-called Beauty Queen of Geria.Without thinking twice, I gr

  • His Ugly Ex-wife Returns As A Beautiful CEO    27. The Warning

    [Mia]It's been over an hour since I arrived at this eatery, yet I still haven't caught a glimpse of Mercedes.I glanced at my wristwatch.1:00 PM.Mercedes had specifically said we were to meet at 12:00 PM, but it was already an hour past the agreed time, and she was nowhere to be seen.Rubbing my forehead in frustration, I struggled to keep my patience from running out.No one knows I'm here.Claire had gone straight to work this morning, and Felix had left shortly after. Knowing him, he could return home whenever he pleased. What would happen if he got back and discovered I wasn't there?I could already imagine the endless questions.And when he eventually found out that I had come to meet Mercedes, things definitely wouldn't end well for any of us.Taking a deep breath, I forced myself to calm down. Then, I pulled out my phone and dialed Mercedes' number.Once...Twice...Three times...No answer."Shit!"I slammed my phone onto the table.The customers nearby immediately turned t

  • His Ugly Ex-wife Returns As A Beautiful CEO    26. What Has To Be Discussed?

    [Mia]I was still in the bathroom, lost in thought as I replayed everything that had happened today.It had been a hectic day, but at the same time, it was a day that gave me the satisfaction of watching the very people who had wished for my downfall suffer a painful crack in their unity.The anger on Felix's face had been impossible to miss, and the expression on Mercedes's face revealed just how badly she was struggling through her own humiliation.Still, this wasn't even close to what I truly wanted.And this surgery I had undergone—it had proven its worth today.Just imagining the looks on their faces when they saw me again was enough to make me smile.Mercedes had even collapsed on the spot.None of them had ever expected me to be alive.They had convinced themselves that I was long dead. Yet there I was, standing before them with not only a new body but an entirely different face. It was something they could never have prepared themselves for.But whatever happened today was on

  • His Ugly Ex-wife Returns As A Beautiful CEO    25. Let's Meet Up

    [Mercedes]The next place I found myself was my room.Felix sat beside me, his hand wrapped gently around mine. The moment my eyes fluttered open, his gaze met mine, and a relieved smile spread across his face."Mercedes, are you feeling better now?" he asked softly.Although I still felt weak, I managed to give him a slight nod.My eyes drifted to my wrist, the same wrist I had cut with a knife earlier. A clean bandage was now wrapped around it. I stared at it for a moment before looking away.I was guessing Felix had cleaned and treated the wound himself."Listen up, Mercedes. You didn't have to hurt yourself just to prove a point to me," he said.I looked at him again as the memory of everything that had happened replayed in my head.Of course, I had done all of that on purpose.I needed something I could use against Felix's intentions. I needed him to trust me and believe my words. Since he wasn't buying any of my lies, I had decided to do something drastic enough to force him int

    The question Troy asked was heavy.Too heavy.It sat in my chest long after he said it, pressing down on me in ways I wasn’t ready to confront.I wanted to answer him honestly. I wanted to give him the response that lived in my heart.But I knew that if I did, I would sound ungrateful—like I was re

    ~Mia“Plast… plastic surgery?”Troy asked immediately, his lips trembling slightly. He sounded so confused, almost scared. “You mean you’re going to go under the knife?”I nodded, forcing a small, painful smile.I knew this would shake him. This was exactly why I never wanted him to know about my d

    ~MiaAs I said those words, a surge of rage rushed through my body, hot and uncontrollable. In that moment, I wished I could gather enough strength to cool the fire burning inside me, but something deep within refused to let me calm down. It kept pushing me, urging me not to show even the smallest

    ~Mia“Doc… Doc! How is she? Can I see her now?”“Yes, of course, Mr. LeVert.”I could hear muffled voices around me… and the steady beeping of machines. A soft, sterile light crept into my vision as I struggled to open my eyes.My head throbbed, and there was a dull pain radiating through it. I cou
