TAKE ME BACK EX WIFE CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-TWO
152JOANA'S POVI felt as if a heavy fog was settling into my chest every day. Usually, planning a wedding would have been fun and cheerful, but every place in the house seemed so lonely.Caleb was called away for a meeting, and I couldn’t risk calling him here. Ciara was also not available due to an impromptu assignment. I never knew I would miss her this much when she started her intense program.Peter really wanted to stay with his mother for the weekend. Even so, I went along with his wishes. So, I ended up looking after the triplets.But in this case, it felt like they were the ones looking after me.If it was at another time, I would have responded positively to their bubbliness.Yet now, I could feel exhaustion enveloping my body and a headache that wouldn’t go away, so I was barely able to make it through.I fought off the urge by saying I was just tired. A nap might be enough to manage an issue of that kind. Still, this was not the case.I did my best to maintain a constant m

151JOANA'S POVThrough the sheer curtains, the sun rays entered the room, and I didn’t feel tense like usual; I felt peace instead. Caleb still had his arms draped around me as if I was something he had to guard. I indulged in the warm atmosphere for some more time, only to hear Ciara’s voice coming through the door a moment later.“Come on, Joana, we’ll miss out on the good ones if we’re late!”With a smile, I pulled myself out of Caleb’s strong embrace. He opened an eye and let out a lazy smile. “Looking for your wedding dress?”“Yes, I called Ciara to assist. Are you sure you will be able to survive without me?” I teased.He leaned in, kissed my knuckles, and let go after that. “Barely. Nevertheless, make sure to capture an image that amazes everyone.”“I’ll try.”In no time, I was dressed, had my hair in a ponytail, and picked up my bag. Just as I left the house, Ciara was already in the car, operating her phone and drinking coffee.Ever since starting her studies, she looked ful

150JOANA'S POVWith our fingers linked together, Caleb and I went back to the mansion, each of us remembering the promise we shared just before. Looking at my hand, I could see the ring shining softly and remembered what he said: Will you marry me?When we reached the living room, we heard everyone laughing.At that time, Jake, Japheth, and Mirabel were wide awake and pretending to climb Clinton as if he were a jungle gym. He just accepted it without any problem.From the way he acted, it looked like everything he lived for was times like these. We found out that Jake recognised us first. He looked at our hands as we clung to each other, and his eyes grew wider.He turned his head and asked, “Mommy? What made you start holding Uncle Caleb’s hand?”I stopped moving, almost choking on the next word I needed to say. Caleb nudged me slightly to indicate I should only reveal my feelings when I was comfortable.Clinton grinned and said, “They must like seeing you together, that’s all.”“Ci

149JOANA'S POVThe restaurant was so beautiful it seemed like a dream.Beautiful, sparkling in gentle gold and enfolded by elegance. At the city’s border, it gazed up at the skyline, featuring tall and broad glass walls. As soon as I entered, pleasant music, a hint of vanilla, and a familiar concierge welcomed me.With a smooth smile, he said to her, “Miss Joana. Mr. Caleb wants to meet you. Please follow me this way.”He walked me through the dark passage to a cosy area near the large windows. Recognizing me, Caleb stood with a suit open at the collar and finished in black.I could definitely appreciate how good he looked that night.I could tell his grin was genuine, as it touched his eyes and made me think I was the only person there for him.When I got closer, the boy said, “Wow!” “You’re stunning.”I smiled and twitched the hair behind my ear. “I must say, you look rather good yourself.”He moved over and kissed me on the cheek, and after that, he pulled out my chair as I would

148 JOANA'S POV Not anger this time—pain. Vulnerability. The boundary he always created between us now had flaws, and light could be seen inside. “Are you sure I have not let that happen?” I asked, brows furrowed. “I don’t know,” he admitted. There are days when I feel you understand me. Other times, staring at the way you look after him, the way you protect him, seems to throw everything in question. I sighed and looked off to one side, trying to choose my words wisely. Whatever else may come, Clinton will hold a place in my life. “We have a history. We share a past. We share children. That doesn’t go away, Caleb. It’s a fact of life. Still, that doesn’t mean I feel love for him.” His mouth closed and opened again, all while he seemed to process the information. I went on to say, “You are who I’m with now. You are the person I picked, Caleb. Not just because someone told me to. Not because it was convenient. Because I wanted to. I want us to work.” He gently reached

147JOANA'S POVAs he got nearer, his tone shook with strong emotions, whether it was just anger or even more. “Is there a chance I won’t let go of my fears? Whenever I see you, I fear you wish you were with him and not me."I placed my hand over my heart. "That’s not fair. I have always acted in a way that kept your trust in me. Never. I always remained by your side, even when you seemed to move away from me. Even when your jealousy leaves everything between us in ashes.”“Jealousy is the only emotion I experience whenever I think about the man who had you before me!” He shouted.Neither of us spoke, and the silence was like a powerful thunderclap.I took a step back. "So that’s it then. This is all about connecting with our true selves. Clinton had me first."He found it hard to speak but simply remained silent.I shook my head. “Caleb, you are not helping us by doing this. You’re fighting to beat him. No one is allowed to claim me as a prize to fight for."He looked away, jaw tight
