AYAH'S POV

Ayah, Mia said you were bullying her in front of everyone.”

We were in his office. I didn’t even bother looking up at first. I just rolled my eyes, leaning back slightly on the chair like the whole thing bored me.

“Believe her then,” I said flatly, finally glancing at him. “I have no intention of dealing with you both.”

Ethan went quiet. I could see it in his face—he didn’t like my answer. But I didn’t care. Not when it was obvious. The way Mia stood near him earlier. The way she ta

  • The Heiress Married Her Ex-husband's Rival    My Last Memory of Him

    AYAH’S POVHow did he know my favorite food?I stared at him, trying to understand. Since when did he pay attention to the things I like? I remember clearly—he wasn’t the type to talk to me that much before.What was my last memory of him again?I was holding a bouquet… and then—I tried to remember, but nothing followed. It was like the memory just stopped there, cut off completely.Did I shoot my shot that time?If I remember correctly… I was planning to propose to him.My face turned red.Seriously? Me? Proposing to a man?Then again… if it’s Bryan, why not?I looked at him again, this time more carefully.His features were too perfect to ignore. Blue eyes that seemed calm but deep, honey-brown hair that fell naturally in place, and a straight, pointed nose that suited his face too well. His jaw was sharp and defined, giving his face that clean, structured look, and his face shape—balanced and masculine—made everything about him even more striking. His lips looked soft—annoyingly k

  • The Heiress Married Her Ex-husband's Rival    With Him

    AYAH'S POV “Where are you going?” Ethan asked.I had just finished my shift and was heading out of the building when, unfortunately, I ran into the man they call my husband. Still feels strange saying that when I don’t even remember marrying him.“Obviously none of your business. Excuse me.”My tone came out colder than I expected, but I didn’t care. After what I saw in our bedroom, he lost the right to ask me anything.“None of my business?” he repeated, his voice dropping. “You’re my wife.”“Wife, huh?” I let out a sarcastic laugh. “Right after I saw you making out with another woman? With your secretary? F*ck off.”I wasn’t jealous. Not really. I just couldn’t understand the audacity of him calling me his wife while being with someone else.“Ayah, let’s not make a big deal out of it,” he said, sounding annoyed now. “I’m stressed, and I need to take it out. You’re not helping me. Mia is the only one willing to help.”I stared at him.The lion, the witch, and the audacity of this b*

  • The Heiress Married Her Ex-husband's Rival    The Calmness They Didn't Expect

    AYAH’S POVI didn’t create a scene. I just knocked like the man inside wasn’t my husband.“Ayah,” Ethan’s voice came out nervous, almost breathless. “Wait—” His tone carried a hint of panic.I stood there, unmoved. I kept my expression steady, even if something in my chest felt slightly tight. When the door finally opened slightly, I looked at them calmly, as if nothing was wrong.“Sorry to disturb,” I said evenly. “I just want to sleep.”My eyes moved between Ethan and Mia. I didn’t let anything show. No surprise. No anger. Just… awareness.“Are you done yet?” I asked, my voice steady and controlled.Both of them froze. Ethan’s face changed instantly—guilt, worry, something I didn’t want to analyze. Mia, on the other hand, forced a small smile.“Get off the bed,” I added, my tone firm.Ethan stepped forward quickly, running a hand through his hair. “Ayah… I—” He hesitated, clearly struggling. “I can explain.”I looked at him briefly, then looked away. I didn’t feel the need to argue.

  • The Heiress Married Her Ex-husband's Rival    Caught

    AYAH’S POVWhen the meeting was dismissed, I followed Samuel outside the conference room.“Wait,” I called, grabbing his arm. Samuel froze, then turned to me and bowed. “Miss Zairayah, what is it?” he asked.A shiver ran down my spine. My grip loosened as I stared at him. “W-what?” I whispered.Samuel seemed to realize what he just said. His expression shifted for a second before he straightened. “I’m sorry, Miss Evans. I was just thinking about the project we talked about in the conference room,” he reasoned.I studied him for a moment. It sounded valid, but something still felt off. “Have we met before?” I asked.What I really wanted to ask was if he knew me before the accident. But I couldn’t say that, not when I wasn’t sure he even knew. “Of course, we did,” he answered.My brows furrowed. “Where?” I asked again, but before he could respond, his phone rang. “Excuse me,” he said.I stepped back slightly. “Okay, I’m going now. No need to answer that,” I said, turning away. I went ba

  • The Heiress Married Her Ex-husband's Rival    The Woman Thet Were Looking For

    AYAH'S POV There was a knock on the door. “Come in,” I said. The door opened, and Mia stepped in without hesitation. “There’s an urgent board meeting,” she said, her tone sharp, eyes scanning me like I didn’t belong here. “Aren’t you aware? Yet you want to compete as the President?” I leaned back slightly, meeting her gaze with a smirk. “A secretary does have a say?” Her expression tightened. For a second, I thought she’d snap back. But she didn’t. She just forced a smile—tight, controlled—before turning around. “Don’t be late,” she said, walking out. I watched the door close. Then stood up. — The boardroom was already full when I arrived. Long table. Sharp eyes. Silence that felt heavier than it should be. (Conference room.) The moment I stepped in, I felt it. Their stares. They are not curious. Not welcoming. They were— Judging. Some of them exchanged looks. Others didn’t even bother hiding their disapproval. Like my presence alone was a proble

I could see it in his face—he didn’t like my answer. But I didn’t care. Not when it was obvious. The way Mia stood near him earlier. The way she talked. The way he didn’t stop her. If that was their dynamic, then fine. I wasn’t going to fight for something I didn’t even remember.“All I want to do is join the company,” I added, my tone is calmer now but firm.There was a pause. Ethan sighed, running a hand through his hair. “You’re really serious about this,” he muttered. I didn’t answer. Because I was.He looked at me for a moment longer, like he was trying to read something I wasn’t showing. Then finally—“Fine.”That was it.Mia wasn’t t
