Calla started walking toward him, slow and confident. For a moment, he thought she was going to kiss him. His breath hitched, eyes going down to her lips. But instead, she stopped right in front of him, opened her purse, and dropping a few cash into his palm.

“Thanks for the night,” she said sweetly. “And the premium breakfast.”

She winked, turned around, and swayed her hips like she knew exactly what she was doing to him.

Killian stared at the bills in his hand, then burst into laughter. “Thanks, ma’am!” he shouted after her, still laughing as she climbed into her car.

Killian stood by the door for a moment after Calla drove off, the sound of her car fading into the quiet street. A low chuckle escaped his lips as he stared at the coins she’d dropped in his palm. “Thanks for the night and the premium breakfast,” he murmured under his breath, shaking his head. She still had a way of getting the last word, even when she was walking away.

He closed the door and leaned against it

  • The EX-Wife Returns    Chapter 212: The viper

    The room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Every dangerous eye in the place was fixed on Calla. The woman with the sharp eyes smiled like a cat that had found its favorite mouse. Pierre stood frozen beside her, not moving at all. "Well, don't just stand there looking pretty," the woman said smoothly. She pointed to the empty chair across from her. "Sit down, darling. We are all friends here." Calla did not blink. She sat down slowly, never looking away from the woman. Neva moved to stand right behind Calla's chair. She looked ready for a fight. "Let's not waste time," Calla said, her voice cold as ice. "Who are you and what do you want?" The woman laughed, a sharp sound like breaking glass. "So straight to the point! I like that." She played with the cards in her hands. "Let's just say I am the one who pays Pierre. I have been watching you for a very long time." Calla's eyes became thin slits. "You have been following me? How sweet. Do you want my signature?" "Oh, fro

    Silas stood in Calla's office. His face looked very serious. "Jefa, we have big trouble," he said. Calla put down the papers she was reading. "What kind of trouble again this time Silas, I gave you a part to manage but you're here guarding me and always announcing troubles to me. What is it this time." she asked. "I apologize Jefa, but I still have to protect you and right now the problem is the truck going north," Silas explained. "The one carrying our special bottles. Some men attacked it and I know it Killian's men, ever since he came to the club I knew he was up to something because they didn't steal anything. They poured gasoline everywhere and set it on fire. All our product is gone. Everything burned." Calla felt like someone had punched her in the stomach. That shipment wasn't just about money. "He's sending us a message," she said quietly. "He's telling us he knows about our business." "Yes," Silas agreed. "He's saying he's coming for you personally." Calla felt anger g

  • The EX-Wife Returns    Chapter 210: The Club

    Killian sat in his dark office, turning the business card over and over in his hands. The gold letters seemed to shine even in the dim light. Sombra de Agave. The name repeated in his mind like a song he couldn't forget. "Mateo," he called out, his voice rough from too much thinking. Mateo appeared from the shadows. "Yes, boss? What do you need?" "Take two of our best men. Go to this address." Killian held up the card. "I want you to watch this place like hawks. Watch the guards, count the cars, notice everyone who comes and goes. But I want you to be ghosts. Don't let anyone see you." Mateo took the card carefully. "We understand, boss. We will be invisible. No one will know we were there." "Good," Killian said. "Report back to me by tonight." Across the city, in her Brewery office, Calla stood with Neva and a stunning woman named Isabella. The morning sun streamed through the large windows. Neva had searched for long to find the perfect face for the club, and Isabella wa

  • The EX-Wife Returns    Chapter 209: The pearl vs the ghost

    The next morning, the black pearl sat on Calla’s desk like a single, watchful eye. Morning light entered through the blinds, washing the study in a pale gold that made the jewel gleam ominously. Calla, Neva, and Jones stood around the desk, each one silent, each one knowing what that pearl meant. “We’re not running,” Calla said finally. Her voice was calm but cut through the air like a blade. “We dig in. Jones.” The head of security straightened. “Ma’am.” “Triple the guards,” she ordered, her finger tapping beside the pearl. “Two-man patrols around the walls every hour. Not just the gates, everywhere. No one gets near this house without my say-so. Delivery boy, flower man, priest, I don’t care who it is. Everyone gets checked.” “Understood.” Jones nodded sharply. “You can leave,” Calla said. He bowed and disappeared through the door without another word. Silence lingered for a moment before Calla turned to Neva. Her gaze was still locked on the pearl. “I need you to do som

    Calla's black car moved fast through the dark streets. The city lights blurred past her window. She sat in the back seat, her heart still pounding from the party. "Are you alright, madam?" asked the driver. His name was Amir, a serious man from Shaw's security company. He had started working for her a month ago. "I'm fine, Amir," Calla said, but her voice was tight. "Just get me home." "Yes, madam." Soon, the iron gates of her huge mansion appeared. They opened slowly like giant metal arms welcoming her back. Her home stood like a white castle in the moonlight. Bright lights showed every corner of the big garden. Four guards with guns walked around the property. They nodded when her car passed. Amir stopped the car at the front door. He got out and opened her door. "Goodnight, madam," he said with a small bow. "I hope you sleep well." "Thank you, Amir," Calla said. She walked quickly up the marble steps. Her high heels made clicking sounds that echoed in the quiet night. Insid

    The grand ballroom was a swirling sea of black silk and hidden faces. Soft music floated in the air, mixing with the clinking of glasses and the low hum of a hundred conversations. Calla stood by a towering ice sculpture, feeling its cold breath on her skin. She gripped her sparkling water, her knuckles white. She was getting used to the atmosphere, it might be her first time but if she ass going to remain in this business, she had to get used to it and that was exactly she was trying to do without making a fool of herself. Neva leaned close, her voice a steady anchor in the storm. "Just breathe. You look perfect. No one knows it's you. Though I doubt they even know who you are without the mask except they watch the Damien Calloway's ex wife news." "Oh Neva nice joke but anyways everyone here is a wolf in a mask, they are so weird and the atmosphere screams dangerous." Calla whispered back, her eyes scanning the crowd. "I can feel their eyes on me, some are admiring my dress, some
