[Vivienne]

I blink a few times, trying to wrap my head around the scene before me.

“Anna?”

She’s sitting right there, slumped on the floor, her entire body shaking, loud sobs racking through her.

I look around, trying to understand what the hell just happened. My gaze lands on the old man, now unconscious on the floor, and I realize how quickly everything unfolded.

Somehow, I push myself off the floor and race to my bedroom for my phone. I call the guards and tell them everything. After they assure me they’ll be at my place as soon as possible, only then do I rush back out, only to find Anna now trying to pick the old man up. His lifeless hand slumps around her neck as she struggles to lift him, but she fails miserably against the man’s enormous size.

She keeps stumbling but doesn’t give up, not even once.

I have no choice but to help her. Despite my reluctance to be anywhere near him, I offer support from the other side, and together we manage to toss him onto the nearest couch.

  • No Longer Yours, Ex Husband   Chapter 336

    I’m tempted to whip around and face him—just to confirm that what I heard was actually his voice. That the sudden burst of serenity filling my entire soul means something—that it comes from him, and him only.I’ve never felt so much happiness just from hearing someone say a few simple words.But this isn’t the moment. Not when Axel’s life is on the line.“Caden!”But then Astrid’s whole demeanor takes a complete turn. Her taunting sneer and lunatic haze twist into something… miserable. Her eyes go wide and round, and her lips take a downward dive.“Oh my God, you’re here,” she cries, literal tears slipping from her eyes. Her hands go up in the air. “Please save me from this crazy woman. She’s out to kill me!”That’s the biggest pile of bullshit I’ve ever heard in my life. What the hell is this woman up to?Caden, however, simply looks at her with complete boredom. “Drop the act, Astrid. I’ve heard and seen more than enough.”“What? No. I don’t know what you heard, but look at her. She

  • No Longer Yours, Ex Husband   Chapter 335

    [Vivienne]“Mommy!” I hear Axel scream as he stands behind the pillar, holding it with all his might.When I jumped on Astrid and tackled her to the ground, I forgot I was leaving my little boy, who can’t see, all alone.I might have been really desperate.“You’re so dead, Vivienne!” Astrid snarls, launching herself at me again.I move the gun up and at her, aiming right for her head. “Yeah. Try that, for sure.”That makes her hesitate.On the other hand, Samuel looks absolutely misplaced and terrified. For a man as old and enormous as he is, he’s not very bold, I realize. In fact, from the very beginning, he has been constantly uncertain of himself. Even his act of abducting us wasn’t his own or out of rage—it was out of hopelessness.If not for this dangerous and messed-up situation he dragged us into, I would have honestly felt pity for him.Not that I do. The only thing I have for him is a huge-ass grudge.Astrid laughs, and that’s enough to bring my focus back to her.“What the h

  • No Longer Yours, Ex Husband   Chapter 334

    [Caden]“How the fuck did you lose her?” I ask the head guard of Vivienne’s security detail.The older man, probably in his forties, looks like he might punch himself in the face.Considering he lost my wife and my son to my drunk-out-of-his-mind brother, I might punch him myself.“My team did all they could to follow them,” he says, “but they eventually lost them due to the heavy rain.”“Well, if we don’t find them in the next ten minutes, you and your team can get lost from this business as well.”The man drops his head, ashamed.It doesn’t help that I’m scared out of my fucking mind. I saw the footage myself. Samuel was indeed here, and he took Viv and Axel into his car—at gunpoint.What I don’t understand is—why would he do that? Why would he go after Viv and my son and not me? Why come back after all these years? For revenge? For payback?But why now? And why Vivienne? Doesn’t he know we’re divorced? And who the hell told him Axel is my son? Because if that’s not the case—if he d

    “You’re bluffing.”“Am I now?”She stares hard at me before closing her eyes and muttering, “Shit!” Then she whips back around to face Samuel and backhands him again.“You… idiot. You couldn’t even do this one thing without making a mess out of it. If her men are actually outside, we are so damn screwed. You realize that? You fucking asshole.”If Samuel hadn’t sobered up earlier, he certainly seems awake now. He rubs his jaw, glaring hard at the woman in front of him.“Enough!” he snarls through gritted teeth. “I might have been drunk, but I wasn’t dead out of my mind. I know what happened, and those guards she’s talking about—they were nowhere near my car. I made sure of it.”I don’t give them the satisfaction of thinking I’m dangerously doubting the possibility of my men being outside. Instead, I only shrug, as if to say they can think what they want, but they’re fooling no one.Samuel keeps glaring, his fingers twitching like he’s either about to punch something—or lose what little

    Axel burrows into my side, tightening his arms around my legs.His small frame trembles against mine, and I can feel the quick, shallow gasps of his breath against my hip.God, if only I could do something to get us out of here—sooner rather than later. Because God knows the longer we stay here, the harder it will be to get out of this alive.Especially now that I have two psychos to deal with.I hate that I’m so helpless. I hate that Axel has to witness this absolute madness.While Astrid continues with her rant, I steal a glance at the entrance, silently begging for any kind of help to arrive. My guards must have followed us—I’m sure of it. I have to be sure. So what the hell is taking them so long? Every second that ticks by feels like a countdown I can’t see the end of.“Hey!” Two fingers snap sharply in front of my face, jerking me back to the present. “Eyes over here,” Astrid sneers, her voice laced with mockery. “What are you even looking at, princess? Expecting a cavalry to bu

  • No Longer Yours, Ex Husband   Chapter 331

    From everything I expected to happen tonight, Astrid showing up wasn’t even on the list.What the hell is she doing here?Not that I get the chance to ask.The two of them are already bickering.“What the hell was that for?” Samuel snaps, practically growling, somehow looking even taller and angrier than before.To my surprise, Astrid doesn’t look the least bit intimidated. In fact, with the way she’s holding herself—shoulders squared, fingers clenched at her sides, posture radiating fury—she looks ready to charge at any moment.“What the hell was that for?” she fires back. “That was for doing this!” She jabs a finger toward me and Axel. “How dare you go behind my back and pull something like this? How can you be so damn stupid?”“Stupid?” Samuel’s eyes shoot up, and something in him snaps.Before any of us can react, he grabs her by the throat and squeezes hard.“I’m not stupid,” he growls. “You’re the entitled bitch who can’t decide what she wants. You’re the dumbass wannabe who’s s
