CHAPTER SEVENTY-SEVEN: SHATTERED

CHRISTIAN

———

“Yo! Watch where you’re going, man!” The guy in the car I just overtook leaned out his window and yelled.

But I didn’t care. I didn’t even look at him. My hands tightened around the steering wheel, my jaw locked, and my bloodshot eyes stayed fixed on the road ahead.

All I wanted was to reach the hospital. To see my little girl.

It was Alex who had called a few minutes ago, his voice shaking as he informed me about Riley’s condition. And that

Hello dear readers. I want to take a moment to apologize for my inconsistent updates. I’ve been terribly sick and amidst all the treatments and daily hospital visits, I haven’t had the strength to write, no matter how much I try. But I’m feeling much better now and daily updates will continue as usual. I apologize once again, and forever grateful for your support and understanding ❤️

  • My Ex Cheated, So I Got Hotter!   CH106: Christian Jnr

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED SIX: CHRISTIAN JNRZOEYWhen I finally opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was a white ceiling.The bright hospital lights slowly came into focus, followed by the steady drip hanging beside my bed.I frowned.A hospital? How did I end up here?“Thank goodness you’re finally awake.” I turned my head toward the familiar voice.Camille sat beside my bed, one hand resting gently against my cheek. Relief washed over her face, though I could still see the worry lingering in her eyes.“Hey…” I murmured, my throat dry.I tried to sit up, but she immediately stopped me, gently easing me back onto the pillow.“Nope,” she said with a smile. “You’re staying right there. The only thing you’re allowed to do is rest.”I let out a quiet sigh. “Did I… pass out?”The memories came rushing back just then; the red carpet, the cameras, Christian’s proposal…My eyes darted around the room.“Where’s Christian?”“First of all,” Camille said, “yes, you passed out like a sack of potatoes.

  • My Ex Cheated, So I Got Hotter!   CH105: Lights, Cameras, Red Carpet

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED FIVE: LIGHTS, CAMERAS, RED CARPETZOEYThe cool Hollywood night buzzed with excitement as our car rolled to a stop outside the grand event hall.Bright lights flooded the red carpet, turning the entrance into a sea of flashing cameras and glittering gowns. My heart pounded so hard I could feel it in my throat. I couldn’t tell if it was excitement or nerves anymore.Beside me, Christian reached for my hand and gave it a reassuring squeeze.“You ready, baby?”I swallowed and nodded.“As ready as I’ll ever be.”The car door opened, and the flashes came instantly.For a split second, I was blinded by the sea of cameras before the roar of voices crashed over me.“Zoey!”“Over here!”“Look this way!”The screams, the shouting, the nonstop clicking of camera shutters, all blended into one deafening wave.Christian stepped out first, looking every bit the powerful man everyone admired. Then held out his hand, and helped me out of the car.The moment my heels touched the re

  • My Ex Cheated, So I Got Hotter!   CH014: What Comes After Climax

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED FOUR: WHAT COMES AFTER CLIMAXZOEYONE YEAR LATERI stood in front of the tall mirror in my dressing room while three stylists buzzed around me like busy bees. Their hands moved, adjusting the rich, deep burgundy velvet dress that hugged my curves perfectly, draping elegantly to the floor. “You look incredible, Miss Zoey. You’re going to outshine every single star on the red carpet today.” One of the stylists said, stepping back to admire their work.I offered a small smile, but it didn’t reach my eyes.Tiny sparkling glitter dusted my collarbones and shoulders, giving me an ethereal glow under the bright lights. The dress I was wearing was slit high on one thigh, elegant and daring at the same time. I barely recognized the woman staring back at me.A movie star.It still felt surreal.As they pinned the final strands of my hair into a sleek updo, my mind drifted back to everything that had happened in just one year. The arrests, the trials, the media storm. The

  • My Ex Cheated, So I Got Hotter!   CH 013: The Imposter Falls

    CHAPTER ONE-HUNDRED-THREE: THE IMPOSTER FALLSCHUCK (MARC)The police truck had barely driven off when my mother dropped to the floor like a fucking actress in a bad movie. She screamed dramatically, clutching her head and crying as if Daisy had actually murdered her.“Ow! My hair! That crazy bitch nearly scalped me!” She wailed.I ignored the sharp pain in my hand where Daisy had bitten me and knelt beside her. I helped her sit up, keeping my face concerned even though irritation boiled inside me.Why the hell is she whining like a pathetic bitch? It’s just hair. Not like the crazy whore actually killed her.“It’s okay, Mom. She’s gone now.” I said, trying to sound soothing.But my mother shoved my hand away, her face twisting with anger. “This is a big deal, Chuck! A very big deal!” She snapped. “This is exactly what I’ve been warning you about. Your terrible taste in women keeps bringing nothing but problems into our lives. Every single one of them!”She glared at me, eyes blazin

    CHAPTER ONE-HUNDRED-TWO: CRUSHED PLANSDAISYTWO DAYS LATERAs I zipped up my last suitcase, I let out a satisfied breath. Grabbing my phone from the bed, I typed a message to Zoey and hit send:ME: ON MY WAY NOW. SEE YOU SOON. A small smirk crept across my face as I stood in front of the mirror, fixing my hair one last time. I looked damn good, and even better knowing what I was about to do.I was finally going to destroy Chuck and that bitch Scarlett. I’ll spill every fucking secret of theirs to Zoey. I had contacted her yesterday, asking to meet up and that I had something important to tell her.To my surprise, she’d accepted without much back and forth like I initially expected.Chuck and that sick mother of his thought they could use me like some disposable pawn? No fucking way. I’ll expose every filthy secret they have and watch as their perfect little world crumbles.And then, I’ll disappear and none of them will ever see me again. I’ve premeditated my plan since my altercatio

  • My Ex Cheated, So I Got Hotter!   CH0101: Chuck’s Real Eyes

    CHAPTER ONE-HUNDRED-ONE: CHUCK’S REAL EYESZOEY“Cut!” The director called out as Angela’s fingers brushed my face in a fake slap. “And that’s a wrap for today! Great work, everyone!”The crew erupted into applause and rushed over with towels and cold bottles of water.I took a long gulp, relief washing over me. I was exhausted as fuck and starving. All I wanted right now was a good meal and my bed.“You did amazing today, honey,” Angela said warmly, patting my back. “Well done.”“I couldn’t have done it without you. You’re the best, Mrs. Simpson.”She waved off the compliment with a smile and headed back toward the building to change.That was when I noticed a familiar car pulling up in the distance. Christian stepped out, looking as handsome as ever in a simple shirt and jeans. He carried a lunch box in his hands and gave me that soft smile that always made my heart skip as he walked toward me.My stomach growled loudly the moment the delicious smell hit me.“Hi, love. How was your

Like a freaking déjà vu I couldn't p
