Reclaiming My Ex-Wife Chapter 17 A slap
Lance’s POV…I stretched my hand to find my lovely wife. It will be fun to watch her blushed cheeks. I intend to confess my feelings to her. I really want to know what she will say and how she is going to react.My hand only comes into contact with the cold bedsheet. When I open my eyes, I find myself alone on the bed."Where has she gone?" I wonder as I sit up, looking around the room.Assuming she went out to eat for breakfast. I also go down the hall after quickly freshening up. I don't see her anywhere... Not in the hall, not in the dining room. All I see is Dad leaving for work and Mom waving goodbye.'She is probably with Grandma,' I think as I enter my grandmother's room.A maid is taking her into the bathroom to bathe her. Molly is not here either.I frown and come out, wondering whether she has left."You are awake." My mom’s cheerful voice makes me look ahead."Good morning, mom." I greet her and hug her."Good morning, darling. How was your sleep?" She is smirking at me, an
Reclaiming My Ex-Wife Chapter 18 The argument at the bar
I suck in the cold air, clasping my fingers. I am stunned at what I did. Shivers follow shivers down my spine. I am terrified, thinking he will take revenge on me.Squeezing my eyes, I press myself against the wall. I can't see his face, but I can imagine how enraged he will be. I am anticipating his retaliation.A few moments passed, and nothing happened as I expected. The silence is growing thicker, and my heart is trembling with fear. I'm afraid to open my eyes and look at him.After a while, I hear him mumble, "Sorry."I gasp again and open my eyes, only to see him walk out. My heart hurts even more. I slide down against the wall and hunch over my knees, tears streaming down my cheeks.Lance’s POV…I am angry and disappointed, not because Molly slapped me, but because of what I said. I can’t believe I said such humiliating words to my wife, my love. The resentment and jealousy completely clouded my thoughts, and I lost my rationality.I am ashamed of myself. I don’t know how to fa
Reclaiming My Ex-Wife Chapter 19 First day at the new job
Molly’s POV…Lance went out a few hours ago. He has not come back yet. He must be angry or distressed.I don’t know."Huh…" I sigh loudly. The surprising thing is that he has not taken out his rage on me. His apology is still ringing in my ears.Did he really regret what he had said?I couldn't get away from the fact that I slapped him. I pout and shifted my weight. My hunger has vanished, as has my sleep. For the past hour, I have been lying on the bed, wondering where he could go.‘Why is he not coming home?’ I have lost count of how many times I have asked myself this question.I considered phoning him several times but couldn’t bring myself to do so. He would simply get angrier with me.I sigh once more and mumble, "I’d better sleep now. Tomorrow is the first day at my new job. I cannot be late."I remind myself and close my eyes. However, Lance's face keeps flashing through my mind.The next day…Oh my God!I gasp, looking at the clock, which is reading 8:30 am. I was supposed to
Reclaiming My Ex-Wife Chapter 20 The confession (Part-1)
Lance’s POV…I press Molly to my chest tightly, fury overcoming me. I have the impression that the walls are closing in on me. In my mind, I am growing bigger and bigger. If I don’t do anything right now, right at this moment to control my rage, I will explode and kill this man.My pulse is speeding up, and my breathing is becoming shallow.This cretin... He had the audacity to try to exploit Molly. I am not going to leave him tonight.I make Molly sit on a stool and pull the man up by his collar. I ball my fingers into a fist and drive them through his face, then into his stomach.Several people come forward to separate us. I am still angry."Let go of me," I yell. "He dares to touch my wife. I will break his hands." I am desperately trying to set myself free.Their grips around my arms, chest, and waist are growing tighter. They are pulling me back while I am trying to move forward. They are telling me something, and I don’t get a fucking word of what they are saying. My full focus
Reclaiming My Ex-Wife Chapter 21 The Confession (Part 2)
My mouth is falling open. I blink slowly.‘Did she say she loved me?’ I find myself wondering this in my head.I believe this is a dream. Or the rising hormones muddle my brain, and I start hearing things. But the speeding heartbeat seems so real."Come again," I mumble. I want to hear her say that again. "Wait a minute." I quickly take out my phone and press the voice recording button. This will serve as proof that I am not dreaming."Say it again," I demand."What?""The thing you said just now. That you love me." I put the phone in front of her.She pushes my hand away and the phone drops on the bed. "You are a jerk," she yells. "You find it funny! Are you mocking me? Yes, I loved you. I was running after you, offering my heart. But you never noticed me. You always disregarded me and chose Ruby. All you want is Ruby, Ruby, Ruby…"She stops yelling, then tears begin to collect in her eyes. She sniffs as she says, "I married you, assuming you would start loving me. But you never paid
Reclaiming My Ex-Wife Chapter 22 The recording
The next morning…I stretch my hands and arch my back, yawning. My head is heavy, and my entire body is aching as if a road roller ran over me."Mm…" I wince, rubbing my forehead. "My head."When I open my eyes, I notice the familiar eyes staring down at me. I blinked dumbly at the sight of his smile.Lance Stevens is smiling at me!‘Why? Why? Why?’ My mind is frantic.I follow his gaze and find myself naked. My breasts are exposed in front of his eyes. I smoother a yelp and pull the blanket up, my stomach knotting tighter and tighter.The scratches on his arms and shoulders are proof that we had some steamy moments last night.That was not a dream. That happened in reality.‘Holy Mother.’I just want to disappear somewhere.What is he thinking? Does he think I am easily available when I am drunk? What excuse should I give to him?I was inebriated last night, but I am not sure whether he was drunk or not. I try to recall.His piercing eyes are distracting me. All that comes to my mind
Reclaiming My Ex-Wife Chapter 23 A chance
Molly’s POV…I lay motionless, my mind replaying the recording. I can only hear myself screaming, moaning, and sighing.‘Oh, God. It is so embarrassing.’I hope I can hide under the blanket forever. I don’t want to go out and face him.His sharp eyes scanned me and peered into my mind. It seemed as if nothing could be hidden from him.I squeeze my eyes even harder. I actually, shamelessly claimed that I loved him and willingly surrendered myself to him. I am a moron for imagining it as a dream.I bite my lower lip. A tingling sensation sweeps up the back of my neck and across my face, making me feel impossibly hot. My heart is thumping.I cannot stop thinking about how crazy I was the night before. Those moments are sweet. I wish I could spend my entire life in his arms. Then I remember the truth about our relationship.Three years later, we finally consummated this marriage when we decided to part ways.Why did it happen?He said he would like to talk to me. I have no idea what he wa
Reclaiming My Ex-Wife Chapter 24 Want something in return
Lance’s POV…The moment I enter the Global Network office building, I notice William taking Molly in his arms. My light mood and delight vanished straight away. My skin pricks with anger. Something snaps inside me.William, the man who used to follow Molly. I never could express feelings to her because she had a crush on this guy.I feel a stab in my heart when I see her with him. I clench my fists."Keep your hands off her," I shout as I storm over to them.I pull Molly to my chest and hug her possessively, giving William a hard look. I hold up my index finger and warn him, "Stay away from her, I am warning you."He gives me a cold stare.I want to punch him in the face, but I restrain myself only because Molly is around. I don’t want to frighten her."Lance…" Molly calls out to me, her voice trembling.I look down at her. My expression softens a little when I sense her fear."He is only helping me," she explains hurriedly. "I stepped on something greasy, which caused me to trip. Wil
