Serena

But strangely, the triumph I felt wasn't as sweet as I expected. Because all I could think about was Ethan.

About his voice saying "I love you."

About his birthday that I'd almost missed.

About how much he meant to me.

God, When did this happen?

When did this stop being just a contract marriage?

When did I fall in love with him?

I shook my head, trying to clear my thoughts.

Focus, Serena. You have work to finish. And you have a birthday to plan.

I looked at the clock. 2 PM.

  • The Worthless Ex-Wife's Revenge    Author's Note

    Dear readers, I want to apologize for not updating yesterday. I took my baby for her Penta 1 vaccination, and she wasn't feeling well afterward, so I had to give her my full attention and couldn't write. Thank you all for your patience, understanding, and for staying with me throughout this journey. Your support means so much to me. Also, please check out my new book, Too Late To Take Me Back, Alpha. I promise it's a story you'll love! Thank you for your continued love and support. ❤️

    SerenaTwo weeks later...For the first time in a very long time, life felt peaceful.Not perfect.Dave was still out there somewhere.But peaceful.No attacks, no threats, no emergency meetings, no sudden disasters.Just peace.And honestly?I was learning how to breathe again.The twins had become very active lately.Sometimes they kicked so hard that I nearly dropped whatever I was holding.Dr. Amelia said it was normal.Ethan, however, acted like every kick was a national emergency.The man practically called the doctor every other day.I smiled to myself as I reviewed the documents on my desk.The afternoon sunlight streamed through the large windows of my office.The company was doing better than ever.The stock prices had recovered, investors were returning.Lawrence Global was finally stable again.A small smile appeared on my lips.Then suddenly, the office door opened.I looked up.Immediately, my smile widened.It was Ethan.He walked into the office wearing a perfectly tai

    SerenaI could not sit still.The moment Ethan left the mansion, an uneasy feeling settled inside my chest and refused to leave.I tried reading.I tried watching television.I even tried taking a nap.Nothing worked.My mind kept going back to Ethan.I looked at my phone again.Still nothing.I pressed his number once more but the call failed.A frown appeared on my face.Why wasn't his phone going through?I tried again.And again.The same thing.The twins suddenly kicked. I rubbed my stomach gently. "Your father is stressing me out."The babies kicked again.I sighed. "Just wait until he comes home. We will both scold him."One of the maids standing nearby smiled.I tried smiling back, but my heart was not cooperating.Something felt wrong.Very wrong.Please God, don't let anything happen to him.Minutes slowly turned into an hour.I walked toward the window for what felt like the hundredth time.The sun had already disappeared. Darkness covered the grounds outside.Then suddenly

    EthanThe moment I stepped out of the interrogation room, Daniel was already waiting."Sir?"I looked at him. "Get everyone ready."His expression hardened immediately."We're moving tonight." I said.Daniel nodded. "Target, sir?""Victor Kane."The corridor fell silent. Several guards exchanged glances. Not because they were afraid. But because they knew exactly what that meant.Victor Kane had crossed a line.And people who crossed lines involving Serena rarely survived the consequences."Understood."Within minutes, the operation was moving.Vehicles rolled out from the underground facility one after another.Black SUVs, armed personnel, communication channels active. Everyone focused, everyone ready.I sat in the rear seat of the lead vehicle while my phone rested in my hand.Across from me sat Rex.The best technology specialist money could buy.His laptop was already open, his fingers moved across the keyboard, lines of code flashed across the screen."Hotel security network bre

    Ethan I absorbed everything without letting it show. "And what were you instructed to do?" "He instructed us to kill you." A pause. "And your wife." The room was completely quiet. God, my wife... I can't believe Victor Kane has the guts to target me and my pregnant wife. Something moved through me that I did not let reach my face. "He wanted you both dead," the man continued. He was talking now with the desperation of someone who believed information was currency and was spending everything he had. "He said you were a problem. He said the woman was the problem. He said as long as she was alive and holding shares in that company he couldn't..." He stopped. "Victor Kane. Where is he?" I asked through gritted teeth. "The Meridian hotel." He said it immediately without hesitation. "Top floor suite. He's been there two weeks." "Security detail?" "He has eight men rotating four-hour shifts. He doesn't go out. Everything comes to him." I looked at him. Then at the other three in

    EthanThe drive home was silent. Not because there was nothing to say, but because the fear Serena had felt still lingered in the car like a ghost neither of us wanted to acknowledge.I kept one arm around her shoulders the entire ride.Every few seconds, my eyes drifted to her stomach, to our babies.The thought of what could have happened made my jaw tighten.Someone had the guts to follow her, to target and pointed a gun at the car she was in.That person had just signed their own death warrant.The gates of Ashford Manor opened immediately as our convoy entered.The guards stationed outside straightened."Welcome home, Mr. Ashford.""Welcome home, Madam."Servants lined the entrance hall and bowed respectfully as we entered.Normally Serena would smile and greet them. Today she looked exhausted. The fear was still there, hidden behind her brave face.I guided her upstairs carefully. One hand at her back, the other holding hers.When we reached our room, I helped her sit on the edg

    Marcus As soon as I got into my room, I collapsed onto the bed and stared at the ceiling.God, everything is falling apart.The company is gone. My father is going to prison.Serena hates us. And I have no idea how to fix any of it.A knock on the door interrupted my thoughts."Go away," I called

    Serena "Serena," he said, and his voice was different. Softer. Almost... pleading?"Mr. Wellington," I replied coolly. "What can I do for you?"He flinched at my formal tone."Please," he said. "Can we talk? Really talk?"I leaned back in my chair, studying him. "You have five minutes."He took a

    MarcusI sat in my study, staring at my phone like it was a bomb about to explode.Twelve calls.I had made twelve calls in the past hour. And every single one had ended the same way."I'm sorry, Marcus, but I can't help you.""The situation is too complicated.""I don't want to get involved.""My

    Marcus"This is ridiculous!" my mother shrieked, jumping to her feet. "Absolutely ridiculous!"Her voice echoed through the conference room, making several shareholders flinch."You crazy woman!" she continued, pointing a shaking finger at Serena. "What kind of nonsense are you spewing? Majority sh
