Everything happened in a blink. Nathan burst into the room like a raging storm. His eyes were cold as ice, sharp enough to cut through anyone who dared to stand in his way.

The man tried to get up, but it was useless. Tessa’s ex-husband grabbed him and slammed him into the mirror, shattering it into a thousand pieces.

“Nathan!” Tessa shouted, more out of shock than concern.

She wasn’t an angel, and that man deserved what he got.

Her eyes widened in horror as Nathan kicked him again and again, then drove his heel into the man’s face like he’d lost all control.

She shut her eyes tight when the first drop of blood spilled from his mouth. The sound of bones cracking made her stomach turn.

“Bastard,” Nathan growled, his voice barely human. He reached into the man’s pocket, pulled out a screwdriver, and drove it into his stomach.

Those few seconds felt like forever. Then Nathan threw the screwdriver to the floor, his face blank. His chest rose and fell rapidly as he tried to breathe. Tessa

  • My Ex-Husband’s Vengeful Obsession   Chapter 118: Blood That Wasn’t Hers

    Earlier.The car tore down the highway, slicing through the dark. Inside, tension sat heavy in the air, broken only by the growl of the engine and the crack of Nathan’s knuckles as his hands clenched into fists.Jack drove with lethal focus, swerving around potholes with practiced ease. In the back, Julian studied the map on his tablet, his face washed in cold light, all business. Tyler stared out the window, quiet with nerves, while in the middle seat Caroline curled in on herself, pale and shaking.“If this is a trap,” Nathan finally said, shattering the silence as he watched Caroline’s reflection in the mirror, “I swear you won’t live to see the sun tomorrow.”Caroline flinched, shrinking even smaller.“It’s not,” she whispered. “I know what’s waiting for me if I lie. He’s in that house. I’m sure of it.”Twenty minutes later they reached a small island after switching to a speedboat. At the top of the island sat a large house, isolated and bleak. A place that didn’t deserve the Rem

  • My Ex-Husband’s Vengeful Obsession   Chapter 117: No Mercy

    Minutes crawled by in the damp darkness of the deserted island. The wet forest floor felt painfully cold against Tessa’s bare feet. Inside her chest, a frozen emptiness had taken over ever since she watched the life fade from her father’s eyes.Her sobs had thinned into silent trembling. Each ragged breath shuddered through her, growing weaker, as if crying had drained whatever strength she had left.Her mind, numb with shock, drifted through broken, scattered images.Nathan. Where was he? Did he know what had happened? Would he come looking for her on this island?She couldn’t stay hidden forever. She had to find help. For herself. For her baby.With whatever strength she had left, Tessa wiped her face with the back of her hand, streaking her skin with her father’s dried blood, rough and dark like cracked earth. She drew a deep breath, filling her lungs with the salty night air the sea breeze carried in, then peered out carefully from behind the thick tree trunk that had been shelter

  • My Ex-Husband’s Vengeful Obsession   Chapter 116: No More Protection

    Tessa’s heart, her lungs, everything felt like it just stopped working. Every part of her seemed to freeze when she saw the two men lying on the floor, motionless. No one spoke, and she could barely tell if they were even breathing.What happened? Who was hurt? Both of them? Just one? Were they still alive?The gunshot still rang in her ears and the smell of smoke burned her nose.Then one of the bodies moved.Charles Remington pushed himself up with a low groan, swayed for a second, then finally stood. He wiped his face and patted his body like he couldn’t believe he was still in one piece. Not a single wound on him.Tessa’s tear-blurred gaze shifted to the other body. The one sprawled on his back. Too still.“Dad?” The strangled word slipped out of her. Under his body, a dark, thick pool crept across the floor, slick and shining in the dim light.“No…” Her voice came out thin, barely audible, like her throat refused to let the truth in.The ropes at her wrists meant nothing now. Pai

  • My Ex-Husband’s Vengeful Obsession   Chapter 115: A Father and the Monster Who Hid

    Tessa finally saw it. Her father had been hiding money. All this time. While she pawned her jewelry, while she lay awake sick with worry over unpaid bills, while she tried to survive the bankruptcy he caused, there had been stolen cash waiting. He had lied to her. Even in the middle of their poverty.The shock must have shown on her face, because Charles smiled, satisfied and cruel.“You’re so naive,” he said, dripping contempt. “Just like your mother.”That stopped Tessa cold.Her mother? What did her mother have to do with this?“Don’t… don’t say her name,” Tessa managed, confused.“Why not?” Charles tilted his head. “She was the same. So naive she couldn’t see who Robert really was. She believed the image of the good man, the respectable businessman.” His voice was heavy with old resentment. “She chose your father, not me, because I was colder and more realistic.”The confession knocked the air out of Tessa. Her eyes widened.Charles had been in love with her mother. All that hatre

    Nathan glared at him, his face almost touching Ben’s. "You’re lying," he said. "You’re mixed up in all of this. You know something. They paid you. They told you to do it. Where did that van take them? Tell me the address!""I don’t know!" Ben cried, his voice breaking from fear and pain. "I swear, I don’t know! The deal was only about Caldwell!"Nathan’s anger exploded, dark and blinding. He grabbed Ben by the shoulders and shook him violently.No. He refused to accept it. Ben was their only lead to find Tessa. He had to know something."I’ll kill you if you don’t tell me where she is!" Nathan yelled.Suddenly, the door slammed open. A court officer rushed in, pale and trembling. He looked at them nervously. "Mr. Hale, stop! This is illegal! Let him go, now!"Of course it was illegal. That’s why Nathan had hired a fool who apparently failed to watch the door.Nathan almost snapped at him to leave, reminding everyone that nothing was more important than Tessa, when a slender figure app

    The courthouse security room reeked of cold sweat and the aftertaste of a small fire, smoke and burned leaves lingering in the air. Blue light from the monitors washed over Nathan’s face, throwing the storm of fury and helplessness inside him into sharp relief. Jack stood beside him like a statue barely holding back something violent.“Run the west corridor camera again,” Nathan said. His voice was knife-sharp.The nervous security technician obeyed at once. The grainy footage rolled again. There. A man in a black mask and a hat. Tall. Lean. Cruel elegance in the way he moved, the kind only Remington Charles ever radiated, even with his face hidden. He walked out of the women’s restroom. He didn’t carry Tessa. He had her locked against him, his arm trapping hers, pinning her to his body like stolen treasure.Tessa looked wrecked.Her body sagged, her head lolling against his shoulder. She didn’t look completely unconscious, but her legs barely worked. She seemed one breath away from c
