Pregnant and Divorced: My Ex Husband Wants Me Back Chapter 132
ALEXANDER’S POVThe trucks roll through the estate gates just after sunrise. I sit on the passenger side of the second vehicle, dressed in a crisp, pressed uniform, a laminated ID badge clipped to my chest. “RiverStone Wedding Logistics – Clearance Level B.” The face on the card is mine. The name is not.No one looks twice.What better way to see my precious Emily than to disguise to be one of the wedding vendors? It took me a lot to find out the vendors she would be using. And when I did, I applied for a job.Obviously, I can’t show my face around her but it doesn’t matter. Seeing her or watching her from a distance is more than enough.I wear a face cap to hide my eyes and the hunger behind them. My hands rest calmly on my thighs, but inside me, I’m excited just to see her again.I’ve waited long enough.We pull to a stop in the back courtyard of the estate, where a small army of florists, caterers, decorators, and planners are already moving. But no one sees me. They won’t—not yet.

ALEXANDER’S POVI sit at my desk—no, our altar—. My fingers tremble as I slowly smooth down the edges of a photograph. Her photograph. Emily.Her face is a perfect masterpiece, smiling innocently at the camera. She doesn’t even know I took that one. She was sipping coffee at that café on Rue de la Paix in Paris. Her eyes crinkled in that way they do when she’s really, really happy. I remember that morning. She wore a scarf, red with little white stars, and her hands were always cold. I watched her for hours, pretending to read while snapping a photo every time she looked away. No one ever noticed. No one ever saw me. But I saw everything.I saw her.Her beauty. Her grace. Her smile. She belonged to me then. She still does now.I look at the pile of y photos printed from her social media—the ones she posted before she blocked me. I memorized every one before they disappeared. And the ones I printed of her walking to work. Eating with friends. Laughing at something stupid Bridget or Hel

EMILY'S POVI can’t stop shaking. My whole body feels like it’s trembling beneath Carlos’s arms, and no matter how tight he holds me, it doesn’t go away.I clutch onto him like a lifeline. My face is buried in his chest, breathing in the scent of him. My tears have soaked his shirt. My voice comes out broken, breathless. “I—Carlos—I can’t… I can’t stop shaking…”“I’ve got you,” he whispers fiercely, kissing the top of my head. “I’ve got you, baby. You and our little girl… no one’s going to hurt you. I promise. I swear it.”His words soothe me a bit but they can’t stop the images flashing through my mind—the bloodied stuffed bear, the knife, the name in red ink: From Lina. The firework, the panic, the drone whirring above us. It’s all too much.Around us, the atmosphere is thick. The guests are murmuring in shock and confusion. Their happy faces from earlier are now pale, anxious. Some are helping to calm others. Carlos’s parents are on their feet. His father barks orders to security.

EMILY’S POVI always imagined what my baby shower will be like… but I never imagine this.It is beyond perfect.The entire backyard has been transformed into what can only be described as a fairytale dream. I’ve never seen so much pink, white, and gold in one place in my entire life. Shimmering fairy lights are on top. There are pink and blue balloons everywhere. Tables are covered in blue or pink cloths, topped with glass vases full of wildflowers and rose petals. Sweet jazz music plays softly through the speakersEvery corner of the backyard looked like it had been kissed by a Pinterest fairy.Carlos had gone insane with the planning—and I loved every second of it.Everywhere I turned, people were smiling, hugging, toasting, and doting on me like I was royalty. Maybe it was the glow. Maybe it was the baby bump. Maybe it was the food. But this was one of the happiest moments of my life.I float from table to table in my flowing ivory maternity dress, greeting guests, accepting hugs a

EMILY’S POVI wipe the sweat from Carlos’s brow for what must be the fifth time today. He’s been healing well, stronger by the day, but the stubborn man still pushes himself too hard when no one’s looking. He hates feeling helpless. Hates staying in bed, being doted on. He’ll never admit it, but I can tell.“Emily.” He says.I glance down. He’s propped himself up on one elbow. His blue eyes catch the sunlight that slips through the open window. The sight of him like this makes my heart skip a beat.God, he’s gorgeous.Still, I can’t deny the mischievous glint in his eyes—the same one that got us into trouble more times than I can count.“I want to go for a walk,” he says.My hands pause mid-fold, a soft towel half-rolled in my lap. “Carlos…”“Please.”“You’re not strong enough yet,” I counter gently, smoothing the towel and setting it down. “You’ve barely recovered, remember? The doctor says you need to be on bed rest”He chuckles “You make it sound dramatic.”“Carlos, you almost died

THIRD PERSON'S POVThe camera is steady. Its lens are trained tightly on Marcelo’s face. The background is neutral, plain, and polished—crafted to look professional. What the public can’t see, however, is the truth just beyond the frame.A gloved hand holds a gun firmly to the back of Marcelo’s head, and Daniel stands just out of sight. His eyes are filled with hatred. His posture says it all – one wrong move and you’re dead.Marcelo takes a shaky breath. His hands tremble in his lap, but his voice—practiced, rehearsed—sounds clear.“To the public, to the press, to all those I’ve misled… I want to apologize,” he says. “Over the past week, I have shared false and damaging information about the Carter family—particularly Henry Carter. I claimed that he was involved in the death of a whistleblower. I claimed that he orchestrated things behind the scenes, that he was corrupt. But none of that… none of it is true.”He swallows hard. His eyes move to the barrel behind him that no one can se
