Clara's Pov

After I was certain that Adrian had walked away, I fixed my gaze on Julian's face. He had a smug expression on his face.

He was bold and protective of me and that was good, but we were still in a public place, and any little unusual activities would be recorded by guests and it might cause an even bigger problem.

“You shouldn't have engaged in a fight with him. I'm in charge of an event and there are a lot of guests here.”

Julian's smirk stretched.

“I wasn't fighting with him,

    Clara's Pov "If you didn't have a hand in this arrangement, then you should be more than willing to speak to the company about it and ensure some changes are made." I added, enunciating every word so it sank in properly.Adrian stared at me for ten seconds, or more without saying a word. It was as though he couldn't believe that I would say something like that. "Can I ask you a question Clara?" He started after a long silence. "What?" I raised a brow."What's the main reason you came on this trip? Why did you really come here?" I scoffed, remembering it was the same question Julian asked me when u told him I wanted to go for the trip. He kept asking me the reason why I wanted to go like I was a little child who didn't know how to make good decisions."I came here for the same reason others did." I replied simply, trying to keep the conversation short and control my voice from being too loud. "I came here because I wanted to be with you undisturbed." Adrian replied. His face was a

  • THE EX-WIFE HE COULDN'T RESIST   Chapter 141 - Close proximity

    Clara's Pov The night passed without much interaction.Leo was the first to fall asleep, exhaustion finally caught up with him. He'd been running around the whole place actively and I was beginning to wonder if he would ever feel tired from all the running around. I tucked him in carefully, brushing his hair back before turning off the light.The whole place was covered in silence after he went to bed. The woman who gave me the apartment allocation said the master's bedroom was meant to be shared but there was no way in hell I'd be sharing a room with Adrian. It was frustrating enough that I have to share an apartment with him and bear seeing him every time I want to use the kitchen or living room. I laid beside Leo, placing my head on the soft pillow, and I slept off almost immediately. The journey weighed on me. I had no idea how long I slept but the first turn I made on the bed led to me waking up immediately. For a split second, I was confused when u saw the unfamiliar room

  • THE EX-WIFE HE COULDN'T RESIST   Chapter 140 - Tiny but not so tiny adjustments

    Author's POV"You can play with him until our flight is ready to leave." She finished and Leo ran off almost immediately. He did need anyone to tell him that he might not get the opportunity again. Clara wasn't the happiest that Leo was playing with Adrian especially after she'd tried to keep them apart for so long. But they were at the airport and she didn't want to be stressed more than the wait was making her. Having Adrian play with Leo meant he was watching Leo as well and so, the way he looked at her also reduced. Leo was the distraction. Their eyes met for a split second. Then she looked away.**The rest of the journey passed in a blur of announcements, boarding calls, and long hours that felt even longer than the first.By the time they finally arrived, exhaustion had begun to settle in.South Korea was colder than Clara expected.The cold air was the first thing that hit her the moment they stepped out, it was sharp and unfamiliar. She pulled her coat closer around herse

  • THE EX-WIFE HE COULDN'T RESIST   Chapter 139 - Same seat coincidence

    Author's POV"Who are you always calling and expecting calls from?" She asked him on one occasion as his suspicious activities continued and just like Clara expected, he acted totally clueless like she was speaking in a foreign language. "What do you mean?" He asked. "Are you saying that you haven't noticed your movements of late? The way you always look at your phone, how absent minded you have been?" She asked and this time, he let out a slight scoff. "Oh that, that is nothing." He simply waved it aside and changed the topic. Clara was confused and worried but since he didn't want to open up to her, she had not much of an option. Clara didn't want to push further since Julian refused to agree to what she saw at the mall, or agree that he had been acting strangely of late. She decided to drop it since it didn't affect her trip in any way. If Julian was secretly meeting up with Elena for some reason, as long as it didn't concern her, she wouldn't bother about it. The preparation

  • THE EX-WIFE HE COULDN'T RESIST   Chapter 138 - The crazy one

    Clara's Pov "Are you good?" I asked Julian when I noticed his mood change on our way back home. He nodded but it wasn't good for an answer. I didn't press. I overheard their conversation and I was certain that whatever was going on with him had to do with the conversation he had with Adrian. "Is there something going through your mind?" Again, he shook his head. "Would you mind stopping at that restaurant?" I pointed at the 4star restaurant we usually frequented. "I'm famished." And I was certain he was famished as well. We didn't have anything for breakfast before leaving the house. Julian made a turn without saying a word. "What would you like?" I asked when the waiter stood by our side, waiting to take our orders. I even wanted him to make the orders for the both of us like he usually did but he just waved his hand. "Anything is fine." I wasn't satisfied with his reply but I went ahead to place the order. We went back to the house to get Leo and freshen up for our day ou

  • THE EX-WIFE HE COULDN'T RESIST   Chapter 137 - Ugly News

    Author's POVSilas raised his hand and waved Elena away and she scurried out of the dining room, abandoning her cleaning equipment while at it. He brought out a pack of cigarettes from his back pocket, picked one stick from the array, placed its bottom in between his lips and brought out a lighter from his pocket. He tried twice before the fire stayed, then he brought it to the cigarette that was held in place. He replaced the lighter and pack of cigarettes then used his index and middle finger to pick the stick from in between his lips then blew out the smoke. He repeated the process of sucking and blowing out the smoke until the dining room was covered in smoke. Walking out of the polluted space, he brought his phone from his pocket and called a number he had to type into his phone. It wasn't saved in his phone. "Hello, boss.." The other line connected and a young man replied, sounding energetic and loyal. "I want you to look into Adrian. Report what's going on with him, any n

    Adrian's pov"So, the old man's in a coma?" Silas's voice made me turn my face from the wall. I nodded slightly. Clara left already.Good. I didn't want to look into her face after what she'd done to the old man. "So, uhm. I heard the doctors don't know when he's going to wake up?" He asked again

When Adrian called, I'd thought he wanted to make some trouble as usual but I was grateful I picked up after the call. It was already late by the time I got to the house so I did

I was certain he wanted to say more than that but he held back, slid his hands into his pockets and drew a long breath. "Besides, I never got the chance to meet you,
