Author’s POV~

A triumphant smile tugged at Jasmine's lip as she watched Ethan exit the hotel in frustration, his face etched with disappointment. His fists were clenched, his jaw tight with his eyes as cold as ever.

Her grip on the steering wheel tightened, her eyes sparkling with satisfaction with a sense of victory washing over her. She felt– happy, relieved, victorious that her perfect plan succeeded.

Her eyes traced Ethan's movements, watching him dawdle to his car, each step carrying a weight of anger and disappointment.

She wasn't close by; she was in her car which was parked at a side on the other road– adjacent to the hotel.

Ethan had no clue that she had followed him all the way to the hotel to watch how things turned out.

Each sigh, each step he took towards his car, each sulken expression and hint of disappointment in his eyes only seemed to fuel her sense of triumph and satisfaction.

As she reclined visibly relaxed on her chair, she smirked, her confidence growing as she

  • Sunrise After Divorce; The Comeback Queen    Chapter 73.~. Echoes Of The Past

    Scarlett’s POV~I stretched my arms widely as I sat up on the bed, my mouth cracked open. The sun was up, casting a warm glow over the city. As I got on my feet, I smoothened my hair with my fingers, feeling a little refreshed and energised to tackle the day. Last night, I read Emily her bedtime stories, and we did a lot of fun things together. Following my date with Dylan, I made sure to get her favorite snacks to compensate for missing her presentation last week. Luckily, she wasn't mad at me anymore and I'm glad she is starting to cope with my absence.As I walked up to the window, a warm smile stretched my lips. My eyes locked on the wide blue sky and the birds, which chirped on a tree.I was so engrossed, admiring nature and the perfect view that I didn't realise my phone beeped until it beeped again, snapping me back to reality.Curious, I ambled towards the table where my phone laid with the screen glowing with a missed notification.As I picked up the phone, the soft light ill

  • Sunrise After Divorce; The Comeback Queen    Chapter 72 ~. A Visit With An Agenda

    Ethan's POV~My thoughts were still on Alaric's claim about his loyalty towards me as a friend. “Loyal indeed.” I whispered, my lips twitching in a sneer.Was he truly loyal or was it just a means for him to get close to Scarlett back then?Now, I see. The scales had finally fallen off my eyes, the memories and evidence as clear as daylight. I couldn't stop thinking about the memories we shared— the laughter, the adventures, trust,-- everything seems fainter now. As I brought myself towards the door, I hesitated a bit, thinking about those moments we spent together, wondering if he had been playing me all along. The trust I had placed on him, the confidence I had shared and the bond I had formed was nothing but a ruse and a clever act for him to hide his true intentions. While I thought he was trying to make things work between me and Scarlett, he's been fucking her right under my nose.As I recalled how the worker at the hotel narrated their relationship, I couldn't help but feel

    Author's POV~Jasmine’s brows creased slightly, her eyes narrowing slightly as she sized Hilary up. She crossed her arm, her eyes flashing with a mixture of suspicion, curiosity and hostility. The mention of Hilary being Ethan's ex girlfriend didn't sit right with her. How would a lady, dressed all pretty, drenched in perfumes and piercings walk up to her door and introduce herself as her fiance's ex girlfriend.Hilary Mercer? Her name echoes in Jasmine's mind, the memories of Ethan's past flooding back. “Excuse me, you said you're what, again?” Hilary asked, her voice louder than intended.She heard what she had said but perhaps, she just couldn't wrap her head around it to bring herself to accept the fact that the lady in front of her had a past relationship with her fiancé.Hilary raised a brow, her composure relaxed as she replied, “I'm Hilary Mercer. Ethan's ex-girlfriend. Or let's just say, Ethan's friend.” Her voice was sharp, her countenance serene with a hint of warmth and

  • Sunrise After Divorce; The Comeback Queen    Chapter 69.~. The Weight Of Truth

    Author's POV~“Let's leave, Mark. We have no point staying here any longer.” Ethan's voice was cold and detached, his face a mask of disappointment. As he exited the hotel, he walked back angrily to his car, his long strides eating the distance. His face was set in a scowl, his eyes flashing with anger as he clenched his fist.Opening the door of his car, he exhaled and halted for a moment, his eyes fixed on the moving cars as they sped across the highway, their head light illuminating the darkening landscape, faint outline of trees and billboards.Mark, his secretary and his private investigator walked up to him, his expression neutral.

  • Sunrise After Divorce; The Comeback Queen    Chapter 68.~. Hotel Of Secrets

    Author's POV~ Jasmine’s fingers trembled like it was absorbing electric charges, she set her phone down on the marble kitchen counter as her mind raced to figure out what to do. The sun was already waving goodbye for the day, turning the vibrant city in an orange and crimson hue. It was a beautiful sight, but she didn't notice nor care. Not when her heart pounded hard against her chest at the revelation of Ethan’s plan. It was pretty much crystal clear to her, and it chilled her to her core. Ethan was getting too close to the truth about Scarlett and Alaric, too freaking close to ruining everything they had carefully built… or rather, everything she was committed to protect at all cost. Jasmine hesitated for a second before she turned around to face him, adorning her face with a fake smile, a tight mask she hopes covers the tension underneath. “I got a message from my dad,” she said casually. “It’s urgent.
