~GENERAL~

After work, Violet decided to drop by at the mall for grocery shopping before going to pick up the children at school. They'd been ordering takeouts since they returned to the country because she hadn't been chanced to do go to the market to get foodstuff.

She walked into the mall and began to pick the things she needed.

When she got to the rice section and was checking for the best grain to add to her cart, she heard two familiar voices behind her. "Is that Violet? I think she is the one. Hey, Violet!"

Violet rolled her eyes and sighed, her shoulders dropping when she recognized the voices. "This is just my fourth day in Australia, for goodness sake. Can't I just enjoy my stay for a month before bumping into these psychos?" She complained in her head, heaving out loudly.

"We know that is you, Violet. You don't need to hide your face away." The voices echoed again.

With a forced fake smile on her face, Violet turned and said,. "I think you are mistaken, ladies. I am not V

  • The Ex-Husband’s Regret: The Wife He Couldn’t Love   Chapter 22 - The Unknown Anger

    ~STEWART~ "Have you gotten any information on Violet Rhodes and the main CEO of SHAVIO AUTOS?" I questioned my assistant who was standing in front of me. He handed over the iPad in his hands to me and said, "We didn't find anything on the CEO of SHAVIO AUTOS, but we found a few pieces of information about her." My eyes skipped through the document on the iPad. She stayed in Australia for six years and returned four days ago with two children. My lashes blinked, and my gaze deepened when I saw children. Whose children were they? They couldn't be Violet's, right? That was impossible, wasn't it? She loved me so much and wouldn't have moved in from me in six years. I was certain that she would still be regretting her decision six years ago and must be looking for a way to get back with me. The sole reason she was still holding back was that I had already discovered her dirty secrets.Could they be the children of the man she was fucking with at the moment? The children of the CEO of SH

  • The Ex-Husband’s Regret: The Wife He Couldn’t Love   Chapter 23 - Act Like A Fool

    ~WILLOW~Violet just arrived, and she had already started exacting her revenge. What the fuck am I even saying? Exact revenge? She isn't up to the level of who could exact revenge on me. But what has she done to my Stewart? What has she done to my man? He never hid anything from me since we got back together, but he did that for the first time. He knew Violet was back in the country, but he never informed me about it. And he raised his voice at me for the first time. He had never done that. He loved me so much that he didn't want to ever see my tears. It is all because of Violet. "We are home!" Katie's voice echoed in my ears, jerking me out of my train of thought. Without saying anything, I stepped out of the car and scurried into the house. "Willow, my dear. Did you enjoy your outing with Katie?" Stewart's mother asked as soon as I got in, but I wasn't in the mood to respond to her. I scurried out of her sight, holding back the tears lurking in my eyelids and threatening to fal

  • The Ex-Husband’s Regret: The Wife He Couldn’t Love   Chapter 24 - VIOLET IS THE PROBLEM

    ~STEWART~I knew I wronged Willow, especially with the way I raised my voice at her the previous day. Honestly, I didn't know what came over me, either. I didn't know why I got easily worked up because of Violet. At this point, I think I was going crazy because anything with Violet easily irked me up. I have noticed this from the award ceremony, and it wasn't normal. This wasn't supposed to be happening.Despite apologizing to her, she didn't open the door, and I understood her. I have hurt her. I made her cry, and I should be punished for that.The next morning after dressing up for work, I went to her door to try my luck for the last time. Just maybe her anger might have subsided, and she might probably open the door for me. "Good morning, baby. I am so sorry for hurting you yesterday. I am such a fool. I wasn't supposed to raise my voice at you. Pardon my manners. Can you please open the door so that we could talk?" I pleaded in a calm tone, hoping that she would open the door a

  • The Ex-Husband’s Regret: The Wife He Couldn’t Love   Chapter 1 - The D-Day

    VIOLET This is the D-day. When my husband, Stewart Johnston will be showing me off to the world as his wife. I had waited long for this day. My endurance and patience had finally yielded a positive result. With a cheeky smile, I stared at my reflection in the vanity. I couldn't help but fall in love with the woman in front of me. What she looked like today was the result of the endurance she had practiced. I admire her strength and I would want to be like her if there was another world. Making a 360 turn, I squirmed as I paid keen attention to the detail of my dress. Stewart got the dress for me. That was the first time he would be gifting me since we got married. "And what are you doing?" A sharp rude voice rang through the air, jerking me out of my reverie. The moment I comprehended who the voice belonged to, the smile on my lips froze. "Oh, my God! This is the wrong timing. She isn't supposed to come now," I mumbled in my head, gritting my teeth and tightening my eyes shut

  • The Ex-Husband’s Regret: The Wife He Couldn’t Love   Chapter 2 - Victim Game

    VIOLET I was stupefied. Words failed me. The situation was difficult to comprehend and look for a solution instantly. I knew Katie was a bastard but I didn't think that she would stoop so low as to do something like that. "Katie, I didn't...," I was still trying to talk when the people at the door rushed in. It was my husband, Stewart Johnston, and his mother, Madam Josephine who walked in on us. "Oh my! Violet! How could you do this to my child?" Madam Josephine gasped, raising her hands to her mouth with her eyes widened. She rushed to Katie and bent to her level. "Mum! Brother! Please, ask Violet why she hates me so much. I was only trying to deliver what you sent me before she got pissed off. She slapped me, mum. She didn't just slap me but pushed me to the floor," She explained, shedding crocodile tears. I was perplexed. This was beyond my expectations. Katie played the victim game effortlessly. Her cracked speech and crocodile tears were top of the game. I had really

  • The Ex-Husband’s Regret: The Wife He Couldn’t Love   Chapter 3 - A Wife! A slave!

    VIOLET My mind wandered as I walked down the stairs in the same dress. Willow is back. I thought she had relocated to South Korea. Yeah! That was what Stewart told me a year ago when we chatted about our ex-partners. He told me about Willow and revealed that she dumped him before she left for Korea. When did she get back? Why didn't Stewart tell me? Why did he gifted me the same dress his ex-fiancee had worn? Was that how pathetic I was? Yeah! I was less privileged but did that mean I should be disrespected by my own husband? I was just excited over nothing. I thought he regarded me but he had to pretend he loved me because the woman he really loved dumped him. I was just a second option. I was just a substitute. Willow is back and he might be planning to dump me too. My heart missed a beat as I thought about that. "You cannot let that happen, Violet," I cannot let him divorce me. I love him. I have fallen in love with him like a fool. I don't even want his money anymore. I ju

  • The Ex-Husband’s Regret: The Wife He Couldn’t Love   Chapter 4 - Aggression transfer

    Violet I knew she was the one because Stewart showed me her picture a year ago while talking about her. I wouldn't lie, I saw the love in his eyes when he was talking about her. I saw how elated he was, but I never paid full attention to it. I mean, why should I let it bother me when he was already married to me? Even if Willow returned on that day, they couldn't get back together since he was married to me. Her steps halted when she saw me and she flashed a wide smile. "Are you by a chance, Violet?" She questioned, leaning her head backward so that she could take a full glimpse of me. I didn't know what to do. Was I supposed to nod my head like a lizard excitedly to the woman who took my place in my husband's event today? Was I supposed to smile at her and welcome her back? I guessed she knew I was having mixed emotions as she didn't wait for me to respond to her before she came closer and held my hands. "I am Willow. Stewart must have told you about me. Thank you so much

  • The Ex-Husband’s Regret: The Wife He Couldn’t Love   Chapter 05 - Pregnant! Miscarriage!

    ~VIOLET~The beeping of the life machine and the weird nauseating smell made me realize where I was even before I pried my eyes open. I was at the hospital. Once my lids parted, a pang of pain slit through my head like a double-edged sword and I was forced to squeeze my eyes close back. That was expected. Stewart's punch sent me off my feet and the last thing I remembered was hitting my head on the wall.After a few minutes, my eyes split apart and I was welcomed by the bright light radiating from the huge bulb at the center of the ward. Looking around me, I was expecting to see Stewart but I didn't. Instead, it turned out that I was in the public ward with seven other patients. Did he really believe that I pushed Willow? I scoffed, smacking my lips. I gently sat up on the bed. My body ached badly like I had been smashed by a trailer transporting sand and stones.Why are you asking an obvious question, Violet? You wouldn't be in a hospital bed if he didn't assume that you pushed her.

    ~VIOLET~As soon as the call ended, my phone rang again. For a moment, I thought it was that bastard and didn't bother checking the caller's ID before picking up. "I just said I don't care what you tell people. Is that hard to understand? Leave me the hell alone," I yelled and was about to hang up again when my sister's voice echoed. "Who are you fighting with so early in the morning?" She asked, causing my eyes to widen as I checked the phone's screen for the ID. I tightened my eyes and gritted my teeth, embarrassed by what just played out. I should have checked the caller's ID. I was such a fool. Was that how massive Stewart madness affected me? "I... Good morning, sissy," I mumbled on the phone, scratching my neck. I knew she wouldn't let things be, and I had to explain what just happened without keeping any word back. "You don't need to greet me, Violet. You know how much I love gists. Tell me, who is the bastard disturbing you? Shaun also told me about a fool who attacked

    ~VIOLET~I stepped into my house at 1 am, and I was exhausted from the whole party thing. I started removing everything I had on from the living room and was tossing it wherever. As soon as I got into my bedroom, I collapsed on the bed, facing the ceiling and flopping my hands. The dramas at the event replayed in my head. It made me wonder if Stewart was in his right senses because the way he acted wasn't normal. First was twisting Uncle Shaun's arm, and the second was being jealous... What! Did I just say jealous?Am I a fool? How could I think that a man like him was jealous? Why would he be when he never loved me in the first place?As I thought about the whole thing, I slowly drifted off to sleep.***My phone's ringtone ripped into the air, disturbing the peaceful beauty of sleep I was having. Maybe it was because of the party brouhaha; I found it hard to open my eyes, and seeing that somebody finally disturbed me, I didn't know if the caller deserved a prayer or a curse from me.

  • The Ex-Husband’s Regret: The Wife He Couldn’t Love   Chapter 18 - THE REAL CEO

    ~STEWART~ What did I just hear? Violet was the CEO of SHAVIO AUTOS AND ELECTRICALS? I couldn't believe my ears. They must be faulty. How could she be the CEO of SHAVIOS? Then, who was the man beside her?I snorted, "Funny! This slut must have pulled some strings,"I wondered how many rounds of sex she gave to the real CEO of SHAVIO AUTOS to convince him to allow her to take the award on his behalf and introduce herself as the CEO of his company. And the so-called CEO was laughing and clapping like a fool. Did sleeping with Violet suddenly make him lose his senses? "Whoa! This revelation is shocking. Who would have thought that a woman is the CEO of the same company we've been trying to collaborate with?" Jackson mumbled, smiling. That fool was adding salt to my injury. He was making things worse for me. And did I just hear him affirm that Violet was the CEO? He must be joking. "You are such a fool. Violet can deceive gullible people like you but not me. Do you also believe tha

  • The Ex-Husband’s Regret: The Wife He Couldn’t Love   Chapter 17 - The Shocking Revelation

    ~VIOLET~ "What!" I spurted out, squishing my face as I tried to comprehend what he was trying to do. What gave him the nerve to talk to me in such a manner? "Name it. I am ready to pay twice the amount you get from them just to have you in my bed," he mumbled, looking at me like I was nothing but a whore. This man must have presumed that I wouldn't be able to do anything without him. He thought I was the same Violet he used to know. The dependent Violet, had nothing except her husband's wealth.I snorted jestingly. "Enough to make you experience bankruptcy for the rest of your life, Mr. ....., but I will be nice enough to give you a piece of advice," I told him, forcing out a wide grin and moving my face closer to his. "Keep your money. You will need it for some important things later," I mumbled, causing his eyes to widen with irritation. He opened his mouth to talk back at me, but Liam returned with a glass of wine at that time, which made him shut the fuck up.Liam was surprise

    ~VIOLET~The last thing I expected to see at today's event was Stewart's behavior. He appeared from nowhere and twisted Uncle Shaun's arm. We were dumbstruck and it took seconds to finally return to reality.Liam rushed to his side and pushed him away, pulling Uncle Shaun's arm away from his grip. Lines of anger was scribbled on his face and his eyes were dark. His forehead scrunched and he looked like he could kill anyone at that moment. I was confused. Why the hell was he angry? Who was he angry with? And why did he decide to disrupt the exciting moment we were having over here? "Are you crazy?" Uncle Shaun yelled, ignoring the eyes of the people at the ceremony. We were beginning to garner people's attention and I hated that. I glanced at Stewart who was arguing with my PA and shook my head. It was impossible to know what was running through the man's head. "I am sorry for that, Uncle Shaun. He must be crazy as you said," I apologized, holding his hands and checking if he wa
