Adrian tried to keep calm as he feigned ignorance and asked, “Who are y–you?”

His voice cracked. Just slightly.

On the other side of the phone, Richard was certain Adrian knew exactly who he was talking to.

He didn't need any introduction.

“I let you go five years ago because Arabella said so. I don't mind making you disappear.”

Adrian's jaw tightened.

The mention of Arabella just confirmed Gavin's findings.

And now, knowing Arabella knew Richard for that long finally answered the question

  • Mr. Sterling, Your Ex-wife is a Famous CEO    Interrupted

    Adrian raised a brow, confused, “A much better idea than life in prison?” “What is it?” Arabella leaned in, whispering into his ear. As Arabella moved her lips, the cold air hit his ear, sending a chill down his spine. Arabella didn't go into details about her plans, but just the end result was enough to cause fear. Adrian moved his head back a little, “Arabella, I know you’ve been terribly hurt by her, but are you sure…”“What?” Arabella interrupted sharply, “It's not illegal if the court gives the sentence.” She stared into his eyes, her breath brushing over his face as her face twisted into a frown. “Or are you worried about her?” “NO!” Adrian’s answer was firm.He held her arm with his only good hand, “Am I crazy to defend her?” “I already have my own plans to make her pay before I send her to prison.” He went on. “I already considered her father could pull some strings which is why I have asked Gavin to look into all Mr. Smith’s connections before her sentencing.” “I di

  • Mr. Sterling, Your Ex-wife is a Famous CEO    A Better Idea

    “Mr. Sterling had prior injuries that were aggravated by yesterday’s events,” the doctor explained. “Fortunately, a good Samaritan brought him in quickly. He’s stable now and out of danger.” Arabella exhaled deeply, the tight knot between her brows finally loosening for the first time that evening. “Thank you so much, doctor. Thank you.”The doctor nodded. “I have to go now. My shift ended hours ago, I only waited to meet you before I left.” “A nurse will be on duty throughout the night. Please don’t hesitate to call if he needs anything. I’ll check on him first thing in the morning.”Arabella nodded, watching as the doctor walked away. She hurried to Adrian's ward, her heart in her mouth. Even though the doctor had already reassured him he was out of danger, she still couldn't help feeling worried. Inside the room, Adrian lay on his stomach, his back heavily bandaged. One ankle was wrapped and slightly swollen. A bruise shadowed his cheekbone.The injuries were ridiculous and

  • Mr. Sterling, Your Ex-wife is a Famous CEO    The Patient

    When Arabella got home, Catherine had returned from the hospital, pacing worriedly around the living room after hearing about the scandal involving her son.As soon as Arabella walked through the door, she ran up to her. “Arabella!” Catherine rushed toward her. “Where’s Adrian? Is he alright? How on earth did that evidence get out?”Arabella let out a heavy sigh. “Don’t you remember? My contract ends today.”Catherine’s eyes widened, “What? No.” She screamed. “You’re still leaving?” Catherine’s eyes widened in disbelief. “I thought the two of you would come back together. Why are you abandoning him now?”Arabella’s face twisted with disgust. “Come back together?” She let out a bitter laugh. “How dare you? You were the one who helped ruin this family. You turned Adrian into a hollow shell of himself.”Her voice cracked with rising fury. “You destroyed me. You forced me to spend years chasing nothing but vengeance. And now you expect me to simply forgive and forget?” Arabella was so

    Gavin's phone went off again as a call entered. His face stiffened as he saw the caller. “Excuse me.” He walked past her. Arabella’s legs weakened and she quickly held the wall for support. I wish. The way Gavin said it sent a chill down her spine. Had she calculated wrong? Could they really drag this case to something more dangerous?“Arabella, are you alright?” Adrian’s voice came from behind. Arabella turned sharply, face pale. Adrian’s face creased with worry as he reached to hold her, “You look so pale, are you alright?” Arabella pulled away, standing upright and trying to hide her face. “I’m fine.” “After everything today, I suggest you still go to the hospital just to be safe…” “I said I’m fine.” She snapped. She hated how unaffected Adrian was looking while she was here panicking for him. This isn't how revenge should feel like.Adrian didn't frown, “Then maybe you should go home early and rest.” “I already put the company in a whole lot of mess that you need to

    Dissociate Adrian Sterling from the Sterling Law Group? Gasps. Murmurs filled the room as every board member discussed the suggestion within themselves. Removing Adrian Sterling from Sterling Group felt foreign to them. No one had ever thought of it. Because not only is Adrian the largest shareholder, he is also the only member of the Sterling family on the board.Sterling Law Group is family owned and has always been managed by the family. Still, they couldn't deny the impact this will have on the company. This would be the quickest way to end the scandal, but still…Arabella had her eyes locked on Adrian's. She had planned this moment for months.She had imagined it feeling like victory.It did not feel like anything she had a word for.And somehow the calmness on Adrian's face made her feel worse. Because for Adrian, Arabella's suggestion didn't come as a shock. It came as a sinking feeling in the pit of his stomach. Because as much as he tried to stop his mind from wande

  • Mr. Sterling, Your Ex-wife is a Famous CEO    Remove Mr. Sterling

    “As of 2pm today,” Arabella spoke calmly, ignoring the panicky board members as she signed some paperwork, “I have completed my three months contract with the Sterling Law Group.” She leaned back, fingers intertwined on top of the files.“In the three months period, I have fulfilled my side of the deal, completing the seven points agenda which included maintaining the public image and cashflow of the company.” She scanned the faces around her carefully, adding, “If a company as large as this can't keep from scandal every now and then, I believe there is something strongly wrong with its management.” “And in no way am I obligated to solve these problems too.” “We understand your point totally, and we truly appreciate your professionalism.” Mr. Campbell said, looking stressed. Bribery was a big deal to the image of the Sterling Group. A scandal they’ve always tried to dissociate from. “We’re willing to extend your contract.” He suggested. “Increase the fee.” Arabella looked aroun

    CRACK.Arabella's palm connected with Adrian's face. "What the hell did you do?"She was breathing hard, face flushed with fury.Adrian touched his stinging cheek. "What did I—” "Don't." Arabella shoved her hair back from her face. "Don't play dumb. That article—what were you thinking?” "I told

    ONE MONTH LATERArabella curled in the corner of the small room, her knees to her chest. Her arms shook from the last injection…they always made her feel like her bones were burning. She bit down on her lip to stop herself from crying again. Her voice was too hoarse to make another sound anyway.T

    Arabella woke slowly, blinking against light that wasn’t fluorescent or harsh. The bed cradled her gently, soft sheets sliding under her fingers. For a moment, she thought she was dreaming—after a month of narrow white walls, locked doors, and uncomfortable chains, this room felt impossibly wide a

    Adrian’s fist came down again, a dull, sickening sound filling the room.The guard collapsed against the tiled wall, sliding to the floor, blood already soaking into his uniform. His face was swollen, one eye nearly shut, breath coming out in broken wheezes. Adrian didn’t stop. He barely even looke
