"What's the meaning of this?" Clara asked the second she saw me standing in her office with the bouquet I carefully selected at the flower shop.

Her bluntness made it hard for me to speak for a few minutes as I stood there staring at her.

"I got these for you..."

"Are you out of your mind?" She asked before I finished speaking.

"I told you times without number to stop these unprofessional acts at the place of work but you keep trying me, to see what I would do."

  • THE EX-WIFE HE COULDN'T RESIST   Chapter 100 - Less Efforts?

    Adrian"What's the meaning of this?" Clara asked the second she saw me standing in her office with the bouquet I carefully selected at the flower shop. Her bluntness made it hard for me to speak for a few minutes as I stood there staring at her. "I got these for you..." "Are you out of your mind?" She asked before I finished speaking. "I told you times without number to stop these unprofessional acts at the place of work but you keep trying me, to see what I would do." I was at loss for words with the way she was talking. She lashed out at me like I had ruined her entire day. "I won't tell you this again. It's time I take matters into my own hands." She rose from her seat and brushed past me out of the office. For a few seconds, I stood in the office, the bouquet in my hand as my mind processed what just happened. I got the flowers to apologize to her. I noticed that the previous day, after the incident that happened at the office, she didn't return to the office again. She di

  • THE EX-WIFE HE COULDN'T RESIST   Chapter 99 - Argument

    ClaraTo think that Carl was going to say something nice at the very least. I walked out of dinner first. Julian didn't want to leave, he wanted to clear the table. He reluctantly met me at the car after a few minutes of waiting. "Why did you leave like that? You didn't even taste the chicken. It was so good." He said, still chewing what I believed was the chicken. "What kind of question is that?" I asked, my voice higher than usual and I caught myself fast enough because of the little child, Leo who was standing beside Julian, clueless about what was going on. I didn't want him to see us argue or quarrel. I wanted to raise him in a peaceful home. "You can go back if you haven't had enough but I want to leave now." I regulated my tone before speaking this time. "Let's go." He walked to the driver's door, opened it and called Leo to follow him. I led Leo to the back door and placed him on the back seat and fastened his seat belt. I settled into the front seat after making sure

  • THE EX-WIFE HE COULDN'T RESIST   Chapter 98 - Warning in disguise

    ClaraWe were sitting at the table for forty minutes, thirty-six seconds and there was still no show of Carl. Dinner had been served already and it was a feast. He prepared everything he could to welcome us but I didn't feel welcomed. That was not the case for Julian. He seemed happy with the arrangement. Leo had no idea what was going on, only that his parents were seated at a table with so much food. I couldn't bring myself to eat the sumptuous looking meals on the table. A part of me wondered if he poisoned the food. Another part debunked the thought but the first part was stronger than the latter. Carl was ruthless. As much as he loved family and friends and protected them, he didn't hesitate to hurt them to teach others a lesson as well. Julian was carefree. He smiled at Leo and encouraged him to eat up while he stuffed his mouth with food. He glanced at me and smiled like the insensitive man he was. There was no way he didn't know I didn't like being there but he acted ob

  • THE EX-WIFE HE COULDN'T RESIST   Chapter 97 - Dumped wish

    ClaraI stormed out of the office, leaving him behind because I didn't trust my voice would be firm when I asked him to walk out of my office. My stomach rumbled as the stupid butterflies that had been dead for years now fluttered back to life. My throat clogged with something thick that threatened to disgrace me if I tried to speak. "Clara..." He called as I walked out of the office but I didn't turn back. I couldn't let him see the strange expression that now covered my face. Only when I got outside the building did I let out my breath I didn't know I've been holding in all this while. "What are you doing outside?" Julian's familiar voice made me jolt. "Huh?""What?" He asked, noticing my anxiety. "Uhm.." I swallowed the lump that blocked my throat and tried to think of something believable to tell him and fast. "What were you thinking that made you look so surprised?" He asked again, his eyes searching my face. "Nothing, I was just... I just needed a break, some fresh air.

    Adrian"I got the details you needed sir." Clem said, standing in front of my desk with her iPad clutched to her side. I stretched my hand and she placed the device on my hand. I glanced at the screen, pictures of Clara covered most of the screen, pictures of her in different places. Photos from two years ago when she was first spotted after the accident. Photos of her and her son playing at the pack in a different country.It was all there with descriptions. "What does this mean?" I asked to be sure. "She's Clara Hollingsworth. She was in hiding for years with the aid of the mafia boss, Carl." "Carl?" I asked, shocked to hear the name. Carl was not one to get himself involved in normal people's business. How did Clara get to know such a man to the extent of staying in his mansion, under his care for a long time? "Yes sir, he took care of her all those years and made sure no one saw her around. Although she left his house two years ago." Clem informed me. "Are they still in t

  • THE EX-WIFE HE COULDN'T RESIST   Chapter 95 - Fear

    3rd person povJulian wasn't the happiest about what was going on. His fear had been his rival, Adrian, getting back with Clara and he'd consoled himself with the fact that she lost her memories and no longer remembered anything that happened before the accident. But they were getting too close than necessary. He had to do something about it but he didn't want to put her off and make her feel like something was wrong just like she thought before. Julian gestured to his table and a waitress strutted towards him with a smirk. "I want more." He spoke with a husky voice and she turned the liquor in her hand into his cup. "Someone broke your heart?" She asked as she turned the drink into his cup. He ignored her the first time and gulped down the drink in one smooth move. He placed the cup on the table for another glass. She smirked and turned more liquor in. "You know, talking about heartbreak helps a bit to ease the ache." "What's your name?" Julian asked, reaching for the glass

    Clara's povStepping into my office, my phone rang. It was an unknown number but I picked it up anyway. "Hello?""Hello there Mrs Hollingsworth," a firm voice spoke from the other end. "This is Doctor Rob. I'm calling to inform you that the test results are out." Quickly, my memories aligned. I'd
