Lahat ng Kabanata ng Dear Ex-Husband, Beg For Mercy: Kabanata 41 - Kabanata 50

Anthea spent around four to five days in Vancouver and made sure Noah was recovering properly before returning back to New York. There were still a few more things she needed to finish as soon as she reached. Since Noah was going to shift here the next week, she needed to prepare everything for him. However, the most important thing she needed to do right now was to meet Sebastian Jones. She had an appointment with him in the evening which was why she was getting herself ready. Anthea picked a simple turquoise dress for the evening before slipping into it. The dress adorned her body perfectly till her waist before falling down an inch below her knee in perfect pleats. It had a perfect square neck with two thin straps on each side of her shoulder. The dress looked absolutely perfect for a fancy date. As she stared at her reflection in the dress, she couldn't help but smile in satisfaction. “I think I will look good in those photos.” She muttered to herself with a smirk as she though

“Congratulations on your engagement, Sebastian.”. Rayan’s sudden voice surprised Anthea as she tilted her head to look at him. Dressed in a black suit with a white shirt underneath, he calmly walked towards them along with Nathan before extending his right hand towards Sebastian with a smile. Sebastian paused before glancing at his hand first, then at his face. He smiled back at Rayan while accepting his handshake. “Thank you, Rayan. You are the first and only one to congratulate.” He responded with a chuckle while glancing at the people present around them with a taunting expression. “That's a pity, but I'm glad I'm the first one,” Rayan replied while his eyes shifted to Anthea, who was already looking at him. The moment their eyes met, he offered her a smile before completely facing her. “Congratulations, Ms. Morin.” He then proceeded to offer her a handshake. Anthea stared at his hand, which was forwarded in front of her with a little bewilderment. She reluctantly accepted his h

The sudden sound of bursting her office door open made Anthea’s head snap up from her computer screen. With a frown, she looked ahead of her to see the uninvited intruder, who rudely interrupted her work and didn't even bother to knock. To her surprise, Emilia, a furious-looking Emilia, strode towards her desk after closing the door with a thud on her way. “Emi, you are back.” Anthea’s face bloomed into a smile as she looked at her cousin while getting up from her seat. She completely ignored the pissed-out look Emilia had plastered all over her face as she made her way next to her. “What the hell is this? What the hell is going on, Anthea Morin?” Emilia asked while holding the iPad she was holding in Anthea’s hand. Anthea was caught completely off guard as she struggled to grip the electronic device without dropping it on the floor. She glanced at Emilia with a confused expression before holding the iPad properly in her hands. “What?” She asked as she glanced at the screen of the

Anthea stared at the small pink-blue lily of the valley that Nevaeh held out in front of her, waiting for her to accept the flower. For some weird reason, her heart squeezed painfully in her chest as a sudden thought crossed her mind. Would her daughter also look like the little girl in front of her? Would she also bring a flower for her birthday once she finds her? “Do you not like it?” Seeing Anthea silent like that, Nevaeh asked in a small voice while pouting her lips adorably. This snapped Anthea out of her thoughts as she shifted her attention to Nevaeh. “Of course, I like it. How can I not like something you brought for me?” Anthea smiled broadly at the little girl while accepting the flower pot from her hand. Nevaeh let out a giggle of happiness as Anthea accepted her gift. “I grew it with my dad. It's the prettiest flower in our garden. I'm giving it to you, okay?” She informed Anthea, once again surprising her with this piece of information. Anthea was taken aback for a wh

Flashbacks of the past-Lily sat quietly on the edge of the king-sized bed in her and Rayan’s shared bedroom. A bottle green ball gown lay next to her, which she was supposed to wear for the evening. Her mother-in-law had thrown a huge outdoor banquet in the backward garden of their estate. She had invited all of her rich and high-class close friends, celebrities, and political figures. All the people Lily didn't want to meet because she knew what she would feel inside those high-class crowds. A peasant. That word gave chills down her spine, as she still wasn't used to the world her in-laws used every single day to mock and humiliate her. The continued comparison with Aurelia Jones had now destroyed her self-esteem completely. She now feared even appearing in front of them. After spending eight months in that house, every single one of her dreams and expectations had already been shattered. The illusion she was living in had broken down into pieces, leaving only harsh reality. They w
