My Ex-Husband is Out of Control CHAPTER 501
Sophia’s POVThe moment we arrived at the cafe, tension filled the room, tangible and suffocating, as if it had a life of its own. Morgana opened the door, her face pale, her hands twisting nervously in front of her. “Thank you for coming,” she said quickly, stepping aside to let us in. The normally vibrant glow she’d been emitting lately had vanished, replaced with an anxious energy. “I’m so sorry for calling you like this, but I couldn’t reach Elijah, and Lila… she was asking for the two of you.”“It’s fine, Morgana,” I said gently, though my heart was already racing. “What happened? Are you okay? Is Lila okay?”Morgana swallowed hard, closing the door behind us. “She’s in my office resting, but… here.” She handed me a crumpled flyer, her hand shaking slightly. “This was left outside the cafe this morning. And it’s… it’s been passed around the neighborhood. Posted on walls. Stuffed into mailboxes. It’s everywhere.”I took the flyer from her, my stomach sinking further with every wo

Sophia’s POV“THIS CAFE IS FOR WHORES!”The sight hit me like a punch to the gut. My breath caught as I stepped closer, the metallic smell of paint strong in the air. Morgana turned toward us, her face pale, her lips trembling.“Who… who would do this?” she whispered. Kayla let out a low whistle, shaking her head as she stared at the mirror. “This isn’t just a threat anymore. This is public humiliation.”My fists clenched at my sides as I struggled to contain my anger. “We shouldn’t take this lightly anymore. It’s not just a prank or a rumor. This is serious.”Clara stepped back, hugging herself tightly, her eyes darting nervously around the room. “Do you think… they were here recently? I mean, we’ve had customers all day. Anyone could’ve done this.”Lila’s face crumpled as she took in the hateful message scrawled across the mirror. Her breaths grew shallow, and her hand flew to her chest, her knees buckling slightly.“Oh my god…” she whispered, her voice breaking. Her eyes fluttered

Sophia’s POVAn hour had passed since the chaos in the restroom, and the cafe had settled back into its usual rhythm. The maintenance staff had scrubbed the mirror clean, the restroom remained closed off with a polite sign explaining renovations, and none of the patrons seemed to have noticed the earlier commotion. It was as if nothing had happened.But I knew better.I sat with Kayla and Lila in a cozy corner booth, surrounded by the chatter of diners that filled the air. However, our table felt like an island of unease amidst the calm.Lila stirred her drink absentmindedly, her gaze distant. “I just don’t get it,” she said, her voice heavy with frustration. “Who would want to do this to us? I don’t know of any enemies I might have.”Kayla leaned back, arms crossed, her sharp eyes scanning the room. “You’re a public figure, Lila,” she said pointedly. “It could be anyone. Jealous fans, internet trolls, someone trying to make a name for themselves by taking you down.”Lila sighed, her

Sophia’s POV“Gotcha,” I murmured under my breath, my heart skipping as I swiped through the photos on my phone. There she was, the woman who had called me Sabrina. She appeared in several shots, always on the edges of the room, blending in but never quite engaging fully with anyone. Her dark hair was neatly tied back, and she had the kind of presence that felt understated but deliberate.I didn’t waste another second. I headed straight to Morgana, finding her at the counter as she finished a conversation with a barista. “Morgana, can I show you something?”She turned to me, her expression still lined with stress but curious. “Of course. What is it?”I handed her my phone, scrolling to one of the clearest photos of the woman. “Do you recognize her? She was at the party. Apparently, she was invited.”Morgana furrowed her brow, leaning in to get a better look. “Hmm… she does look familiar,” she said slowly, her fingers drumming on the counter. “Give me a moment.”I waited, watching as h

Sophia’s POVI stood outside the modest two-story house, its neat garden lined with blooming flowers and a white picket fence. The afternoon sun was brightly shining, and yet I could not manage a relaxed and friendly smile. I was too much on edge. My hand hovered over the doorbell, unsure if I was truly ready for this. I hadn’t planned what to say, but something deeper than logic had pushed me to come here. Luana Miller held a thread of my past—one I desperately wanted to untangle.Finally, I pressed the doorbell. The chime echoed faintly from within, and my heart thumped hard as footsteps approached the door. It opened to reveal Luana, a warm smile spreading across her face.“Sabrina,” she greeted, her voice carrying a familiar softness that tugged at something deep inside me. “It’s so nice to see you.”I managed a smile, though my nerves made it shaky. “Hi, Luana. I hope I’m not intruding.”“Not at all,” she said, stepping aside to let me in. “Come on in, make yourself at home.”I

Sophia’s POVEmily’s studio was once again alive with energy, a controlled chaos of bustling staff, racks of flowing dresses, and the constant sound of conversation. I stood by one of the long tables, reviewing the latest sketches for the upcoming fashion show while Kayla worked beside me, her usual sharp, efficient self.“Alright,” she called to a group of assistants who were sorting through fabric samples. “The cobalt gown goes with the amber accessories, not the pearl set. Let’s keep it consistent with Emily’s original palette, people.”The assistants nodded quickly and got to work, their hands moving deftly through the fabrics. Kayla turned to me, arching an eyebrow. “Sophia, are you with me, or are you somewhere far, far away?”I blinked, realizing I’d been staring at the sketches without really seeing them. “Sorry,” I said with a sheepish smile. “I’m here. Sort of.”“Sort of,” she echoed, crossing her arms. “What’s going on? You’ve been zoning out since we got here.”Before I co

Sophia’s POV“Jared?” I called gently, kneeling to his level. “What’s going on, sweetheart?”He didn’t answer, but his defiance wavered for just a moment. Enough for me to know something had happened. Reese stepped forward, her expression serious. “Mommy, I saw what happened,” she said, her voice small but certain. “Jared was teasing Asha. Maybe he was trying to make her cry.”I turned back to Jared, who shifted on his feet, his defiance giving way to guilt. His eyes glistened with unshed tears, and he stared at the floor, silent.“Jared,” I said softly, my tone even and calm. “Is that true? Were you teasing Asha?”He hesitated, but after a moment, he shrugged, looking unsure and still not meeting my eyes.I reached out, placing a gentle hand on his shoulder. “Sweetheart, I think you just wanted to play with her, right? But Asha’s just a baby. Babies can’t always understand when someone’s playing. Sometimes, our words and actions might upset them, even if we don’t mean to.”His lip t

Sophia’s POV“Her name is Luana,” I said, staring up at the soft ceiling lights of Dr. Lawson’s clinic. “She knew me as Sabrina. She remembered things about my life, about people I’ve forgotten completely. And she seems… kind, like she genuinely wants to help me.”Dr. Lawson’s calm voice came from just beyond my line of sight. “That’s a good sign, Sophia. Reconnecting with someone from your past can be a powerful trigger for recovering memories. The more you engage with her, the better chance you have of uncovering the missing pieces.”I turned my head slightly, glancing at her. “Do you really think it’s possible? That I could remember everything again?”Dr. Lawson’s expression was thoughtful but encouraging. “The mind is resilient, and memory is complex. While I can’t promise full restoration, I believe reconnecting with people, revisiting places, and being open to the process will help. Your determination will make all the difference.”Her words filled me with hope, and as the sessi

Chris’s POV“How do we even know we can trust them?” a gruff voice broke through the murmurs. It belonged to Alain, one of Luc’s more skeptical allies, his thick arms crossed tightly over his chest. “This Arcane Network—how do we know they won’t just use us and leave us out to dry?”A ripple of agreement moved through the room, a few others nodding or muttering under their breath. The air was charged, heavy with tension and doubt.Étienne straightened in his chair, his sharp gaze slicing through the dissent. “Because they have as much to lose as we do,” he said firmly. “They’ve been tracking Les Ombres Écarlates for years, and they’ve suffered their own losses to the mob. We have a shared enemy. This partnership makes sense.”“They could still double-cross us,” Alain pressed, his voice tight with suspicion. “What if this is a trap?”Before Étienne could respond, I leaned forward, my hands resting on the table. “I understand the hesitation,” I began, my voice steady but loud enough to

Elijah’s POVThe sharp scent of salt and oil dominated the surroundings, underscored by the industrial clatter of machinery and the distant shouts of Vito’s men echoing through the shipyard. I stayed pressed against the cold metal crate, my breaths shallow and measured. The sound of boots and angry voices reverberated through the maze of containers, too close for comfort.“Split up and cover the south end!” Vito’s voice boomed, carrying above the chaos.I cursed under my breath. They were organized, and their numbers made it clear—this wasn’t going to be an easy escape.My earpiece came to life. “Elijah,” Joe’s voice whispered urgently. “Get to the northwest corner. There’s a stack of containers near the crane. I’ll meet you there. Stay low.”I peeked around the edge of the crate. The narrow path ahead was littered with shadows, but further down, I could see the towering crane Joe had mentioned. It loomed like a beacon of hope—or a final destination.“Got it,” I whispered back, clutch

Elijah’s POVThe air inside the van was tense, thick with the kind of anticipation that made every sound sharper, every shadow more menacing. Joe sat beside me, his focus sharp as he scanned the live feed on the monitor. His men were positioned around the warehouse, their voices low over the comms as they reported their positions.“Movement at the rear entrance,” one of them said. “Two men unloading crates from a truck.”I leaned forward, squinting at the grainy black-and-white footage. The warehouse was nondescript, a hulking concrete building that blended into the industrial sprawl. But we knew better. This was a key hub for Les Ombres Écarlates, and tonight, we were here to confirm something that had kept me up for days—Vito’s survival.“There’s more activity near the side gate,” another voice crackled. “Four armed guards. Looks like they’re expecting something.”Joe exchanged a glance with me, his expression grim. “It’s definitely a big shipment. Whatever’s in those crates is imp

Chris’s POVThe boat cut through the dark water, its motor humming steadily beneath the sound of waves slapping against the hull. The air was crisp, tinged with salt and the faint scent of diesel.I held Emily close, her trembling frame tucked against mine as if I could shield her from everything that had happened. Her hair smelled faintly of the forest, damp and earthy from our time on the run. But for the first time in what felt like an eternity, her breaths were even. She was safe, and that was all that mattered.Luc sat at the helm, his sharp eyes scanning the horizon. He didn’t look relaxed, not completely. His hand hovered near the firearm strapped to his side, his fingers tapping the edge of the wheel.“We’re clear for now,” he said, glancing back at us. “The mob scattered. No sign of them in the port, no tails on us. We’ve got a bit of breathing room.”I nodded, but the tension within me didn’t ease. “What about Marc?” I asked, my voice low, careful not to disturb the fragile

Elijah’s POVThe message arrived at midnight, just as I was about to call it a night. My phone vibrated softly on the desk, the glow of the screen casting eerie shadows across the room. An unknown number. No subject. Encrypted.A chill ran down my spine as I opened the email. The message contained a single image: a grainy photograph of a man at a port, captured mid-motion as he unloaded a crate from a shipping container. His head was tilted slightly, his face shadowed, but I’d recognize those features anywhere.Shit, it can’t be… But it is. It’s Vito. The man we had all believed was dead.A single line of text accompanied the photo: Some ghosts refuse to stay buried.My heart pounded in my chest. The timestamp on the image was recent, taken just three days ago. The location—a port I didn’t immediately recognize—was blurred in the background, but the shipping crates bore the logo of a company long suspected of being a Les Ombres Écarlates front.I stared at the photo, my thoughts raci

Sophia’s POVThe warm scent of baked rosemary chicken and freshly baked bread greeted me as I stepped into Phoebe’s cozy apartment, immediately putting me at ease. Roxy and Jared scurried ahead, their laughter bouncing off the walls. Reese was the first to greet them, her face lighting up as she jumped up from the playmat in the corner.“Mommy!” Reese ran over, wrapping her arms around me in a quick hug before joining her siblings. “We’re playing house! Jared is the baby!”I laughed, kissing the top of her head. “You all behave, alright? And no bossing Jared around too much, Reese.”Kayla emerged from the small kitchen, balancing baby Asha on her hip. Her warm smile widened when she saw me. “Sophia! Finally. I was starting to think you’d gotten stuck in another snowstorm.”“Trust me, I almost did,” I said, exhaling as I set down my bag. “Thanks for picking up Reese. You’re a lifesaver.”“No problem,” Kayla replied, adjusting Asha in her arms. “You know I love spending time with your l

Sophia’s POVAs I stepped into my car, the cold leather seats sent a sharp chill through me. The afternoon sun, shy but persistent, peeked through scattered clouds, bathing the pristine snow in a gentle radiance. Thankfully, the blizzard had blown over quickly, and the roads were clear enough to navigate. It was the kind of crisp day that made the world feel brand new, but my thoughts were far from fresh.Lucas stood near the entrance of the ski resort, his hands shoved into his coat pockets. He waved, a warm smile on his face as I rolled down my window.“Thanks for coming, Sabrina,” he called, his voice carrying easily in the still air. I forced a polite smile, not knowing how to feel about him still calling me Sabrina up to now, especially after what I'd just discovered about my childhood. “Thanks, Lucas. The resort has so much potential. I’ll send over the updated designs soon.”“I’m looking forward to it,” he said, stepping back. “Drive safe. Roads might still be icy in some spot

Emily’s POVThe biting cold wrapped around me like a vice as the forest settled into an eerie stillness. The sounds of the chase from the night before had faded, but they seemed to continue echoing in my head. My legs ached, my hands were raw, and my breath fogged in the frigid air as I stumbled forward, searching for something—anything—that could serve as a refuge.It’s getting late. I have to find shelter first. The darkness was suffocating, but then, faintly, through the trees, I saw a glimmer of light. My heart leaped as I cautiously approached, praying it wasn’t a trap. What I found instead was a small, dilapidated hunting shack, nearly swallowed by the forest. Its wooden walls were warped, the roof sagging in places, but it was shelter. For now, it was enough.Inside, the air was stale and cold, but at least it shielded me from the howling wind. I found a dusty lantern and managed to light it with trembling hands, its soft glow pushing back the shadows. There was an old cot in

Sophia’s POVThe memory hung in my mind like a shadow, vivid and unsettling. Lucas’s voice—the one I had heard in my dream, the one calling for Sabrina—now felt too real to dismiss as just a fragment of my imagination.I tried to focus on the snow, its mesmerizing dance beyond the glass, but my mind wouldn’t stop racing.And then Lucas stepped closer, his presence pulling me from my turmoil. His eyes searched mine. “What are you remembering?” he asked carefully. I turned to face him fully, my heart thundering in my chest. “It’s… hard to explain,” I began, forcing the words out through the lump in my throat. “I had a dream—a nightmare, really—about when I got lost in the snowstorm as a child. I mean, I already know that it was Morgana who actually left me behind because she’d met with her lover then. But now…”Lucas’s eyes narrowed. “Now what?”“Well, in my dream, I thought I heard Elijah calling my name. He’d been there with his family too, so…”Lucas’s expression tightened, but he s
