MELISSA’S POV

“Show me her picture,” he whispered.

I nodded, already pulling out my phone. With shaky fingers, I opened my phone gallery and found a photo of Crystal. She was laughing wholeheartedly with a cotton candy in her hands. Her eyes shone bright as the small dimple on her cheek, a trait she got from Listowel’s accenting to her cuteness.

I held the phone out to him.

When he got hold of it, he stared at the screen for a long, long time.

Then, as if a dam inside him had broken, endless tears fell from his eyes. He sank to the couch, tightly holding the phone as he admired the little girl he never knew he had.

“She’s so beautiful,” he choked out. “God, Melissa… she’s perfect. She looks just like you. No, just like us. I mean look at her tiny nose which resembles mine, and she also has your smile…”

He looked up, disbelief drawn all over his face.

“We’re going to see her,” he blurted. “Tomorrow. No, tonight.”

“The earliest flight is tomorrow morning,” I said th

Madam Gordon brought all this to herself, match making her grandson, replacing him with those 2 who were money hungry, ignorant of what they were doing. This is a good lesson for her, her poor choices, her failures, old woman with no brains

  • Mr. CEO’s Insatiable Addiction To His Feisty Ex-Wife    Chapter 218

    MELISSA’S POV It’s been a month since everything ended. Emily was sentenced to 80 years in prison for attempted murder and assault. Wendy was also sentenced to life imprisonment for attempted murder and possession of illegal drugs. On the day of the final ruling, Wendy’s grandpa refused to appear in court. He disowned Wendy as his own and publicly stated his will that his assets be shared between care homes across the city and Wendy’s unborn child. He left nothing to Wendy’s name. Emily on the other had her father, Mr. Coleman try to use his connections to intervene but her plans didn’t go through as the people especially the junior ballets she had assaulted in the past came out to speak their truth. Even Mr. Coleman himself was found guilty of sexual harassment at his company so he couldn’t do much. Both Listowel and I were in the courtroom when the judge sentenced these devils to a sentence and sent them to jail. I had giggled and laughed in their faces when they we

    WENDY’S POV I couldn’t stop shaking. My fingers dug into the leather armrest of my seat in the airplane as I tried to control myself. Staring straight ahead, I could only hope that this flight would take off any minute and carry me far away from this mess. The passengers around me were settling into their seats, adjusting headrests, pulling out headphones, and chatting casually without any worry about the world. To them, today was just another day and they were living their lives peacefully. Meanwhile, I, a fugitive, was sitting amongst them hoping that they would settle in with seriousness so that we could take off soon. I couldn't risk getting caught. I know the police are looking for me but I’ve bet my last hope on them not thinking of the airport as the last place I will run to. “God, please. Just let this plane move.” I held my thighs firm from shaking while praying. I swallowed hard and shut my eyes. My throat felt dry and sore. Every part of me was drenched in

    GRANDPA MACINNI’S POV “Good afternoon, Mr. Macinni,” the older one among them greeted. “We have a warrant to search the premises. We’re looking for your granddaughter, Wendy Macinni.” I stepped aside without a word. I had no strength to argue. My pride was bruised enough just trying to understand what the hell my granddaughter was running from. They didn’t waste time. They marched past me, their boots echoing on the floor as they bypassed me straight upstairs. I followed behind them slowly and when they stepped inside Wendy’s room, shame crept up my spine one more time. Her clothes were scattered everywhere. Makeup was scattered across the carpet. Her vanity drawers were open and yanked halfway out like she had been looking for something important in a panic.Her bed wasn’t made, and the pillows were also tossed aside. “Malaysia,” I murmured aloud again, loud enough for the officers to hear. “She’s not here,” I simply stated as they turned to look at me. Yes! I was tired

  • Mr. CEO’s Insatiable Addiction To His Feisty Ex-Wife    Chapter 215

    WENDY’S POV I was on the phone with Emily, contemplating how to get out of this situation. I’ve had no rest since the day I called the jerk of a hitman, and Melissa was the one who answered the phone. No one had to tell me he had been caught. And oh, the aggressiveness Melissa had come here the other day pretty well showed she wasn't playing. “I can’t go down like this,” I muttered. “I’m not ready to rot in some filthy prison for something that wasn’t supposed to go wrong. That bastard swore to us that he would do a clean job. If he’s failed to do it then he should face the consequences alone.” “He’s not going to stay quiet,” Emily cut in. “He’s got nothing to lose.” “Then let’s leave the country tonight. I’ve already secured a flight for us. “What? Where?” “Malaysia.” “Malaysia?” she gasped. “Are you insane? Why Malaysia of all places?” “Because no one will look for us there,” I muttered. “Besides, that was the only available flight. Be grateful I got it

  • Mr. CEO’s Insatiable Addiction To His Feisty Ex-Wife    Chapter 214

    EMILY’S POV I sat on the edge of my bed, my phone clutched so tightly in my hand that it could’ve cracked. The news of the hitman’s arrest had been eating at me all day. Every time a car passed outside or my phone buzzed, my heart jumped to my throat. “Was he going to talk?” The question kept repeating itself in my mind so much that I was literally on the verge of going mad. My mind was blank and as much as I tried, I couldn't think of anything. At this point, I could only hope that he keeps his part of the agreement because that huge sum we paid him was not small. My fingers trembled as I tapped Wendy’s name on my phone. She answered as soon as the call went through, her sharp voice cutting through the line before I could even speak. “Emily?” “I’m scared,” I blurted, pacing across the room with my phone in my palms flipped. “I saw on the news that the hitman we sent after Melissa is currently in police custody. What if he tells them everything?” “He won’t.” Wendy simply said.
