[Vivienne]

I turn to her, my eyes wide.

“Excuse me?”

She smiles knowingly. “You’re pregnant, aren’t you? I can tell. It’s the way your eyes shine, the way your face is glowing. You have that special glow all pregnant women have.”

I stare at her, speechless.

I can’t believe she just said that.

“I’m sorry, I can’t be—”

But she interrupts me. “Don’t worry, dear. It’s perfectly natural. I remember when I was pregnant with Aiden and Xander. I was so excited. And then when they were born… oh, it was the happiest day of my life. I’m glad you’re going to experience that as well. The joy of being a mother is not in the fate of everyone.”

I shake my head, trying to clear my thoughts. “No…I mean, you’re mistaken. I’m not…not pregnant. I can’t be.”

She raises a brow. “Really? What makes you so sure?”

I stare at her, unable to answer. What am I even supposed to tell her? That I can’t be pregnant because my ex-husband is the biggest jerk of all time? That it’s nearly impossible to get pregnant when

  • No Longer Yours, Ex Husband   Chapter 355

    [Vivienne]When we reach the city’s biggest mall and enter one of the garment stores, we are instantly swarmed by attendants. Apparently, someone informed them of our arrival—especially of the Richardson heiress—and they can’t wait to please me.By someone, I mean Rosita, of course. Thanks to my brother, she owns this whole damn mall.“OMG, look at this. I love this white dress. What do you think?” Rosita shrieks, her eyes literally glittering. When it comes to fashion, there’s no one as good as Rosita. Her fashion sense is far better than mine. Maybe that’s why she’s my very own personal fashion advisor.“If you say it’s good, then I’m sure it is.”Rosita rolls her eyes. “Don’t patronize me. Try this out, then we’ll see.”She drags me into a changing room, and I obediently do as I’m told.When I step out, Rosita looks beyond stunned. She gasps. “Vivienne… you look absolutely divine.”I glance at the mirror across from me, and for a moment, I don’t even recognize myself. The dress cli

    [Caden]She tries to pull her hands away, but I can’t bear to part with her.After what she said, I feel like she’s ready to give up on me. And the thought…the thought alone makes something in my chest ache. Something as intense as desperation rises in my throat, and I feel like throwing my arms around her and not letting her go.I hold on to her tighter, hopeful that if I touch her long enough she will change her mind. “Just hear me out once.”“I know you mean well, but I need some more time.” She pulls away, her gaze sad yet determined.Time. Of course I can give her that. I can give her all the time in the world. But why do I feel uneasy just thinking about her leaving right now? I feel like if she left now, I’d never see her again.“Take me with you. I’ll help you shop. I’ll carry your bags. I’ll hold the door open for you. I’ll… do whatever you want me to do.”She looks at me as if she can’t believe her ears, and maybe her eyes, too. “Are you…” She shakes her head, fingers runnin

    [Caden]Fifteen minutes pass in pure anxiousness.Neither Harvey nor I are able to sit quietly. We both seem to be restless on our feet, looking up at the door every ten seconds.Perhaps that’s the reason why, when I catch a slight sight of Vivienne walking out of the building, my heart almost feels like it’s about to lunge out of my chest. I don’t even realize when I kill the distance between us, almost rushing to her and grabbing her by the arms.“Are you alright? What happened in there? Why do you look so glum? Did they mistreat you in any way? Why—”“I’m fine,” she says with conviction, her eyes bright yet a deep frown tugging at her lips. “Don’t worry. They have nothing concrete against me.”“Thank goodness. I swear to God, if they had kept you five more minutes outside, I was about to call for another lawyer, because apparently, Elijah was not able to keep his word.”“Are you serious?” The man standing next to Vivienne grumbles before rolling his eyes. “The only reason it took u

    [Vivienne]“What? Nothing to say anymore?” I hear the detective’s voice, laced with sarcasm.He couldn’t be more wrong.But that doesn’t mean I’m not surprised.I turn to face him. “Before today, I’ve never seen this woman in my life.”“Don’t be so hasty, Ms. Richardson. Maybe take a minute or two.”I roll my eyes. “My memory is quite sharp, Detective. If I say I’ve never seen this woman before, I mean it.”“Alright.” He turns to the woman. “Please wait outside.”The woman leaves.The detective sits straighter, smiling to himself as if pleased with all the calculations going on inside his head.“For someone who’s failing miserably at getting a confession out of me, you look pretty happy.”His grin widens. “Maybe because I already got what I needed.”He stands up, almost cheerfully, grabs his file, and leaves.“Weirdo,” I mumble to myself—then realize I forgot to ask if I could leave. “Dammit!”By now, the time for my plane must have already passed.Shit. I can’t believe I can’t even l

    One of the officers who came to pick me up for the investigation walks in, shutting the door behind him.He takes the chair across from me, staring straight into my eyes as he drops a thin file on the table.“Hello, Ms. Richardson. I’m Detective Jacob Hall, and I’m here to ask you some questions.”“Of course, Detective. Whatever I can do to help.”“How do you know Samuel Lawrence?”“He used to be my brother-in-law.”“Used to be?”“I divorced my husband five years ago.”“Oh.” He nods slowly. “That makes sense.” Then, he leans forward on the table, almost casually, his dark eyes fixed on my face as if he’s waiting for me to twitch or blink out of turn. “So, what happened between you two? Why did you kill him?”His outright accusation makes me laugh. I shake my head. “Really? Whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty? Not in the mood for a fair investigation?”He smiles faintly. “As long as I’m on your case, Ms. Richardson, trust me—this investigation will be as fair as possible.

    [Vivienne]“That’s—” Harvey starts to argue, but with my hand on his shoulder, I stop him.“It’s alright. I have nothing to hide.” I turn to face the officer. “Let’s go.”The two men nod and gesture for me to get into their van.I walk over to them, only for Harvey to grab my arm.“This doesn’t make sense,” he murmurs, his brows furrowed deeply.“I know. Sadly, we can’t ignore such a blatant accusation. And truth be told, I’m curious to get to the bottom of this as well. Do me a favor,” I lower my voice, speaking only for him. “Investigate this for me.”He nods more eagerly this time. “I know what to do. Just be calm, and don’t say anything until our lawyer arrives.”I nod back, then step into the police car.Twenty minutes later, I’m sitting at the precinct, waiting for my turn to be questioned. Around me, the whole place is abuzz. Officers in uniforms and plainclothes move about, minding their own bloody business. I sit on a bench, with only one woman seated beside me. She seems to
