DANIEL’s POV

I turned off the engine and sighed again, checking my watch. My wife had just kept me waiting for over twenty minutes. At a point, I’d considered going inside to confirm she hadn’t collapsed or fainted on the way. It had taken exactly two seconds to perish the thought, and now I’d gone from that to frustration which was fast escalating to anger.

I was certain the people that had invented the phone had done so to aid communication across borders, so I was quite fascinated my wife st

  • MY EX WANTS ME BACK? NOT A CHANCE!   CHAPTER 153

    Daniel's POV The air in the abandoned house wafted into my nose, stale and damp. I could perceive the damp concrete and crumbling bricks of the house. It wasn't until then that I really took in my space. The old house. It looks dirty and really abandoned. Cobwebs strung from one side of the room to the other. Mold was starting to grow on the bricks and the paint was falling off. I would never have imagined Eunice using a space so dirty for her stake out. The Eunice I used to know would rather make another plan to lure a target rather than use a building this old and useless. My lips curled at the realization of that. She must've gotten too desperate that she was willing to take anything. Her desperation was making her do so many terrible things that I would never have thought she would do. But here we were, circling around each other in an old house. Since she'd started moving in circles, I figured it'd be better for me to make a better move. I stepped forward with it thinking

  • MY EX WANTS ME BACK? NOT A CHANCE!   CHAPTER 152

    Eunice's POV I let my eyes study him carefully. His stance, his clutch on the gun strap on his waist. One he probably thought I was too stupid to see. I almost laughed but I let it slide. The last thing I needed was too blow my cover. His gaze on me was extremely dark and unsettling.I couldn't even bear to look in his eyes for too long. However, something about him was different. Not different in a good way. Different in a bad, terrible way. A way that screamed he'd been touched and messed with. It was in his aura, in the way he carried himself differently. It was nothing like I'd ever seen. A version of him I never thought would be alive. My jaw tightened at the thought of another woman breaking what I had spent my time building. The thought of another woman touching him in places that used to be meant for me and me alone. I ground my teeth hard against each other in a bid to fight the frustration and anger brewing in my chest. As he tried to mock me through his words, I fo

  • MY EX WANTS ME BACK? NOT A CHANCE!   CHAPTER 151

    Daniel's POV “If you think I'm not different, then you're not either.” I spat at her cruel eyes, staring at me like some prey she wanted to tear apart. A smirk spread out on her face, the face I used to know and…love. She didn't look remorseful neither did she look hurt by my words. Heck, she even looked proud of it. I expected her to say something to counter my words but she didn't. Instead, she moved further away from the darkness and stepped into the light where I could see her. Since the house was abandoned, there was barely any light and the only way I could see her face was through a crack that reflected light on her face. That alone made her look dangerous. I reached for my gun, just to reassure myself that I was safe and I had things under control. “You're such a weakling.” She finally cracked. The laughter from her lips was hollow and empty. Not light the bright bubble I used to love hearing. I couldn't believe a person could turn so bad that their laughter starte

  • MY EX WANTS ME BACK? NOT A CHANCE!   Chapter 150

    Daniel's POV “You've almost arrived at your destination.” My map read as I drove deeper into the creeks. I couldn't see a building anywhere around but my instincts trusted the map. Besides, I had no other option. I drove deeper into the woods and kept turning my eyes at everything strange that I saw. I bit my lips until I started to taste my blood on my tongue. I had a mix of adrenaline pump, anxiety and determination rushing through my blood stream. It took about five minutes deeper into the woods before the map silently went off, indicating that I was at the location. Now, the problem was, there was nothing around except for trees and thick bushes. My earphones glitched in my ear. “Do you sight anything like an abandoned house?” I asked through the mouthpiece. “No boss. There's nothing in sight.” The response came from my men. My jaw locked hard. I turned my eyes around, trying to make out an abandoned house in the distance. I glanced back at the map for the umpteenth tim

  • MY EX WANTS ME BACK? NOT A CHANCE!   Chapter 149

    Jocelyn's POV Again, something felt off. Not just with work but with Daniel…my husband. After my discharge from the hospital, he reached out for a while, stayed close to me but somewhere along the line, it stopped. He didn't just stop immediately, it started from just not checking up on me anymore, sending the guards to check on me instead of doing it himself, avoiding the living room, going into meetings before I could speak with him. Initially, I tried pushing off the feeling as him just being overwhelmed with everything but at some point, I recognized that pattern once again. The same pattern that led us to almost losing each other the first time. My gaze faded outside the window, I sucked in my breath, trying to put my attention on something but no matter how hard I tried, my mind kept circling back to him. “This is so hard.” I muttered, under my breath. My table was filled with files, documents and office tasks that I had to attend to but really, I wasn't in the head spa

  • MY EX WANTS ME BACK? NOT A CHANCE!   Chapter 148

    Daniel's POV After hours of checking and baiting, I finally caught a signal on one of my laptops. “Boss, we got her.” My earpod glitched with the voice of my security men on the other end. I was in the office when the call came in. My eyes trailed on the laptop watching as the tracker blinked and moved. My jaws tightened and my fists clenched, my eyes remained unmoving from the laptop. I had to be sure that this wasn't a set up or a bait move from her. The signal clicked again and this time, it confirmed that I really had her. I had her location now. “Yes!” I whispered, feeling charged up. Adrenaline pumped through to my heart making it pound really hard. After days of constant monitoring and baiting, I finally had my hands on Eunice's location. If I wanted to finish this fast, I had to get to her as fast as I could. “Keep your eyes on her and trail from a distance. Give me all the leads you get. I'll be there shortly.” I ordered and started throwing my jacket and protective

    JOCELYN’s POVMy hands were crossed in front of my chest, and I was pacing in my room, no idea yet on what else to do and still angry enough I didn’t want to think of my aunt. But, I didn’t have just myself to consider. I could imagine how heartbroken she will be right now, not having any way to re

    JOCELYN’s POVI opened the door beside my room and got inside, seeing Daniel had been right. It looked very similar to mine except the fact that it was a little smaller, it was also painted in the same black. What exactly had the interior decorator been thinking? I went towards the window, admiring
