That day, Nathan snatched Tessa’s phone and checked it. He knew Adrian was Tessa’s best friend who lived abroad. He had never made a big deal out of it before, always treating her gently like he usually did. But this time, he hurled the phone to the floor, smashing it into pieces. He forbade Tessa from contacting Adrian ever again, then stormed out in anger.

After that brutal fight, Nathan didn’t show up. Not even the next day. He was dead set on enforcing his infamous silent treatment. For Tessa, though, it was a relief. She would rather spend time with Smokey than face that brooding man.

She tried talking to the maids who came in to clean her room, but as usual, they ignored her. Some even gave her suspicious looks. Tessa figured they didn’t like her.

After lunch, the maids left. On her way back to her room, her attention was caught by a painting hanging on the wall.

Her eyes locked on the portrait of a young woman, blonde hair and green eyes painted to perfection. The face looked a

  • My Ex-Husband’s Vengeful Obsession   Chapter 18: Between Hatred and Concern

    The doctor asked Tessa to lie on her side, the same side where they had done the biopsy. That position was important to help stop the bleeding and prevent a hematoma from forming. And she had to stay like that for a few hours.Unfortunately, the TV in her room wasn’t working properly. The hospital director even came in person to apologize and offered to move her to another room, but Tessa refused. Just walking into the hospital had already been heavy enough after everything she’d been through. The doctors had even performed the biopsy procedure right there in her room instead of the operating room because she’d refused to be moved around the hospital.Tessa stayed silent, staring blankly at the wall until it was finally time to go home.Nathan placed his phone on the bed right in front of her face. He played a movie she used to love, even though she already knew exactly how it ended. At least it was something to distract her. While she watched, Nathan sat behind her, doing God knows w

  • My Ex-Husband’s Vengeful Obsession   Chapter 17. Under His Control

    Without warning, Nathan’s two fingers sank inside her with the precision of someone who knew every inch of her body better than she did. There was no room to resist. Her back arched against the wall like a cornered cat."How is it?" Nathan murmured, watching her from where he stood. His eyes studied her carefully while his fingers kept moving inside her. "Moan for me, baby." He lowered his head and kissed her neck, then moved up to her ear.Tessa wanted to hate him. She wanted to hate the way his fingers found the right spot, the way every movement pushed her closer to the edge. But what hurt the most was the look in his eyes, that cruel satisfaction he felt watching her fall apart, knowing her pleasure was still under his control."Do you get it now?" he asked, adding his thumb to circle her clit until the sensation ripped a scream from her lips. "No one else can make you feel like this. Not him. No one.""Nath..." Tessa clutched his arm, her eyes silently begging him to stop, even t

    "God, this man is insane!” she muttered. She ran to the nightstand for her phone, but it was gone. She searched every corner of the room. Nothing. Nathan had taken it too. The realization hit slowly. It wasn’t just so she couldn’t reach Nathan. Adrian had her number now. This was her ex-husband’s plan from the start. All night Tessa was restless, too angry to sleep, barely eating a bite. At least it was convenient. She had a biopsy in the morning and needed to fast for over twelve hours. The clock struck ten as the door opened. Tessa ran toward it. Standing there was the man who had taken her cat. Nathan was dressed sharp as always, but his hands were empty. “Where’s Smokey?” Tessa demanded, eyes wide. Nathan looked her up and down, his face twisted in an irritation she couldn’t make sense of. Why was he angry? She was the one whose cat had been taken, not him. “Aren’t you going to let me in?” he asked, one brow raised. “No,” she said flatly. “Give me my cat first.” Sh

    “No. Not until I see you’re okay!” Nathan’s fist slammed into the side of the bed near Tessa. Tessa didn’t answer. His breathing was heavy, almost animalistic, a sign his patience had completely snapped. “I don’t have time for your stupid games,” he said, yanking the coat off her head. “You don’t need this either.” Before she could stop him, her hat and sunglasses were gone. Tessa looked wrecked. Her eyes were red, her nose runny, tears streaming down her face. Her stomach hurt and her chest felt so tight she was almost nauseous. Nathan’s eyes swept over her body and back to her face, like he was searching for something he couldn’t find. “This is your fault,” she sobbed. “Don’t act like you care. I’m here because of you. You left me when I needed you most.” Nathan shook his head. His hand reached for her neck, his fingers threading into her hair. “No matter what I did, you’d still be going through this. Your father’s in prison for his crimes, and people were always going to hat

    Adrian’s face shifted slowly from shock to anger as his eyes landed on Tessa’s ex-husband.“We need to go. Now,” Nathan said flatly. He let go of his embrace and grabbed Tessa’s wrist like he was about to tie her down.He started dragging her with him, forcing her to move. But before he could take more than a step, Adrian grabbed her other wrist.Her body was like a toy being fought over by two stubborn kids, pulled from opposite sides until she couldn’t move. Thankfully, Nathan stopped tugging, or her shoulder might have popped out of its socket.Nathan’s gaze dropped to the source of resistance: Adrian’s hand still wrapped around Tessa’s wrist.“Don’t touch her, you bastard!” Nathan roared. He let go of Tessa only to yank Adrian’s collar with brutal force.“You’re the one who shouldn’t touch her! You think I don’t know what you did to her?” Adrian shouted back without backing down. “You don’t deserve to lay a finger on her!”Nathan’s fist flew before Adrian could blink, crashing aga

    Today, Tessa had to go in for a consultation and an in-person checkup at the hospital. And even though she’d told him not to, Nathan insisted on coming with her.After changing out of the hospital gown and back into her own dress, she stepped into the consultation room, where Nathan and Dr. Bennett were already waiting. All the tests were done. Now it was time to hear the results.She sat down beside her ex-husband and watched as the doctor flipped through a few pages of the report.“Mr. and Mrs. Hale,” Dr. Bennett said. Tessa frowned at the last name but stayed silent. She didn’t want to interrupt a moment this important. “The gastritis is under control. Tomorrow morning, we’ll proceed with a biopsy.”She let out a long breath, feeling the pressure in her chest slowly lift.“Here’s a list of things you need to follow before the procedure,” the doctor added, handing a sheet of paper to Nathan. It listed everything she wasn’t allowed to do, from fasting and food restrictions to medicat
