Double-cross
Keeping a straight face, Ava fixed her eyes on the door as it opened, then her sight rested on Roland, and the corners of her lips slightly raised.
"I'm sorry for slapping you," Ava mumbled beneath her breath as she watched him shut the door.
"It's fine. I shouldn't have forced you to do something that you didn't want to do." Roland said, walking over to her.
Then when he was just a foot away from Ava, he squatted, took her hands in his, and looked into her eyes.
"How about we take a trip out of this place and go somewhere else for the time being until this issue with Belle can die down," Roland said as he focused solely on her gaze.
"Are you serious?" Ava asked, striving to contain her excitement.
"Yes, just you and I… Well and Jax."
"Yes!"
Widening her smile, Ava's eyes lit up as she loudly said again, "Yes, I want to!"
"Great, grab a suitcase and get a few things that you need. We will go shopping when

The jet landed on an open field, and its door opened. Then Roland looked at Ava and said, "Let's go." Although she had all these questions running about in her head, she stood from the seat and mumbled, "Okay," Then she obediently followed Roland out of the jet, and once her feet touched the grass, Ava looked at the black SUV in front of them and then stared at Roland before asking, "What now?" Swaying his attention to her, he said with a deadpan expression, "Get in the car." Inhaling deeply, Ava gathered all her strength, held in her words, and walked over to the SUV. After she had gotten into the car, Roland looked at Jax when he stopped beside him and asked, "Is everything set?" "Yes, he's awaiting us at the hotel," Jax replied. Staring at the tainted window glass, Ava pouted, wondering why Roland had not entered the car yet, and suddenly, the thought of him abandoning her crossed her mind. Without hesitating,
My Ex Double Life Rain
The rain was pouring intensely that night when Ava heard a loud knock on her door. She rested her book right next to her cup of tea on the coffee table and got up from her rocking chair.Ava hurriedly put on her robe as the knock got louder and more aggressive. She then rushed to her front door and peeped into the spy hole. At that moment, tears fell from her eyes as her hands trembled to get the door open."Rake, what are you doing here?" Ava softly said, yet there was anger in her tone.She stood at the opened door, staring at a man that had left her broken for so many years, and finally, when she came to accept the fact that he was never coming back, here he is, standing in front of her house soaking wet in the rain."I need your help. Your house will be the last place that they will ever think about looking for me at, so please help me." Rake said with his hand pressed against his side."Who's they? What have you gotten yourself into, Rake?" Ava worrie
My Ex Double Life Encounter
Ava opened her eyes to the bright morning light from the rising sun. She tossed on the bed a bit, then Rake came to her mind, so she raced to the living room. The thought that had kept her up for half of the night had come true."He's gone." She mumbled as her eyes pitifully stared at the comforter folded nicely on the couch and the pillow beside it.Ave was about to head back upstairs and sob for a few minutes when a note on the table caught her attention."I made you breakfast as a way of saying thank you. I am sorry for every pain that I have caused you. I also hope you can forget about me and move on with your life and find someone better who will be a better partner and man than I ever was to you." The note said.Ava allowed her tears to escape her eyes as she let the paper slip from her hand."You fool! Don't you know that there's no other man for me except you? I have waited for years for you to come back and explain why you left me and my heart
My Ex Double Life You shouldn't be here
"What are you doing here, Ava?" Rake asked as he lowered his gun."You killed my boss! Are you an assassin?" Ava asked.She was still in a state of turmoil over everything, and the sight and scent of blood were not helping her think straight."You work here?" Rake asked.He put his gun back in the black bag on the floor, then stood up and stared at Ava's upset face."Is that all you can say? How about explaining why you have a gun and the reason you killed my boss?" Ava screamed."Okay, this is not the time and place for such a conversation! You don't know the enormous problem you have created for being here! I tried so hard to keep you out of this mess. I guess fate had to mess up everything!" Rake angrily said.Ava folded her hand into a fist in rage as she gazed into Rake's restless eyes. She felt furious, and yet she was more worried about him."We've got to get out of here. You ruined my mission." Rake said."What did I do!
My Ex Double Life An unexpected change
Ava steadied her breath and tried to calm the panic she felt, yet she could no longer control her hands as they shook in an odd trembling rhythm. "Ava!" Rake called. Even though it was the fifth time he had said her name, she was not responding. He could see the fear in her expression as she ushered her dark eyes shut, then opened it. "I want to go home." Ava mumbled as tears rolled down her face. "You can't." Rake said. She then turned her head and doubtfully gazed at him as though he was talking nonsense. "Why is that?" Ava harshly asked. "Because you stand the risk of getting you and everyone you love killed." Rake casually replied. For a while, Ava didn't know how to respond to his statement or how to feel about what he had said. So she just gazed at him with annoyance in her eyes. "I know it's hard to accept, but your old life is over. Your boss' son will not take his father's death lightly. In this game, a
My Ex Double Life Can I keep you safe?
Rake stepped down from the vehicle, then he turned around and helped Ava out of the car. Once her feet were stable on the green grass, she lightly shook her arms to signal him to let go of her.Rake got the signal and his fingers slowly slip of Ava's arm as he stared at her with concern in his eyes."Hey Jax." Rake called out as a man with blonde hair approached them."Hello, boss." Jax replied.He then turned his head and gazed at Ava, who didn't pay him much attention since she was mad at Rake. He then looked at Rake, whose expression seemed aloof."Who's this pretty thing?" Jax said."She's just a chick that was in the wrong place at the wrong time." Rake replied with coldness in his tone."Are you going to take her to the big boss?""No. He can not know about her! I will handle her myself.""It's your prey, so you call the shots on it."Ava didn't know what to think or which words to use in such a situation. The entire
My Ex Double Life Danger
The chopper landed on an enormous field, and Jax was the first to get out, leaving Ava and Rake alone.Ava gazed at Rake, but the soulless expression on his face made her quickly look the other way."Is your ass stuck to the chair or something?" Rake coldly stated."What?" Ava harshly asked with a shocked expression on her face.She angrily gazed at Rake. However, from the coldness in his eyes, she knew that he wasn't the Rake she loves, and it tore her heart apart, but she kept silent instead of crying."You are not the man I hope to have spent eternity with and love even in death. I feel so cheated for loving you." Ava pitifully said."If you want to survive this side of my life, you better keep those cheesy statements to yourself." Rake stated."Haha... Cheesy. You are really not Rake."Ava angrily wiped her face, then stood up from her seat and got out of the chopper without looking at Rake.Jax saw Ava walking towards him, a
My Ex Double Life Wolves
Ava stepped back slowly as the three bloodthirsty wolves circled her, leaving only a little distance between them and her."Nice fellows. I am not tasty at all. You don't want a skinny woman like me." Ava calmly mumbled.However, she was freaking out inside, and with every step that the wolves took closer, Ava felt as though her heart was going to explode in her chest."Stay back!!!" Ava commanded."Growl!!!""Growl!!!""Growl!!!"Ava’s bossy tone only made the wolves more alarmed and agitated as they closed in with their aggressive red eyes center on her."Ohh, this is not good. Rake! Rake! I am sorry. I didn't mean to act stubborn! I don't feel ready to die! So please save me!" Ava hastily screamed.At that instant, one of the wolves vigorously charged toward her. Ava couldn't breathe because of fear, and she immediately shut her eyes tightly."Bang!!!"The gunshot sound didn't help Ava’s panic attack either, but sh
