Lahat ng Kabanata ng Obsession of the Ex-husband: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

"Your husband cheated," Joey Linton got a message from her bestie while resting on a clinic bench after her ovulation induction. She looked pale with her black hair, and her oval face was devoid of color, but her stunning beauty still turned heads as people passed by.Joey took a deep breath. Her hand trembled as she tapped on an image on her phone. It was a picture of her husband, Zachary Gray, holding a woman dressed in a pink designer dress as they left a hotel. His usually stern face had softened as he looked at her.She recognized the woman. She was Zachary's first love, Julia Fisher. Once she snapped out of it, Joey gave Zachary a call. After the phone's long, busy tone, he finally picked up. His tone was cold. "What's up?""Are you coming back tonight?" Joey actually wanted to ask if he'd ever come back at all, but it seemed her call interrupted him. After a few quiet seconds, Zachary snapped impatiently, "Is it that urgent?"Joey's eyes got a bit teary, but she kept her

Joey quickly gathered herself and said, "Just give me a moment. I'll be right there." She applied a light touch of makeup to conceal the dark circles under her eyes, changed into a sleek, professional outfit, and slipped into high heels before heading downstairs.As she spotted the familiar figures snuggled up on the lobby's sofa from a distance, her steps faltered. The smile on her face vanished instantly. There was no way to slip away now.Zachary frowned when he saw her. He stood up and strode over. Then, he grabbed her arm and pulled her toward him. "Joey, you've really got some nerve to track me down here."Joey pursed her lips and frowned. The divorce was imminent, and she didn't feel like explaining any misunderstandings. She shook his hand off and politely smiled. "Mr. Gray, I'm at work. Please behave properly."Zachary scowled as he retorted impatiently, "Running short on cash that you need to work as a shopper now?"Joey let out a sarcastic laugh. He knew about her t

Zachary looked at Joey with a frown. Why was she here in the first place? Dealing with this service role and the scrutiny involved was a stark difference from her life with the Gray family. He couldn't resist a taunt. "If you can't humble yourself, don't try to serve others."Joey felt a slight sting from his words. These two were experts at twisting the truth. She pursed her lips and said politely, "Fine, we'll find someone else for you. Hopefully, you can get Chloe's contact and bring us more clients."Joey left the fitting area and called in an assistant. "Don't mention my identity when you're in there." Then, she added with a touch of malice, "Tell them Chloe is grieving her late husband and has no interest in designing." Meet Chloe? In your dreams!The assistant walked in just in time to hear Julia complaining to Zachary, "Look at her attitude. I adore this dress and just wanted Chloe's contact. "But why is she being like this? The service quality of staff these days

That was a bit of an insult. He had time to meet Julia and accompany her when she wanted to try on wedding dresses, but he got impatient waiting for a divorce for an extra 20 minutes? Wasn't her willingness to get divorced as soon as possible a favor to them?She took a deep breath and suddenly heard a knocking sound from the other end of the line. She changed her tone. "Zachary, did you even go to the clerk's office?"Zachary coldly sneered. "Do you think everyone is as fickle as you?"Joey was confident he hadn't gone. "Then take a picture of the clerk's office's entrance for me ..." Before she could finish her sentence, Zachary hung up the phone. Joey tossed her phone aside and cursed, "Ugh, what a jerk!"Selena helped her get dressed and joined in the venting. "What's wrong with him again?"Irritated, Joey replied, "Who knows? I was late, and he didn't even go to the clerk's office, yet he's throwing a tantrum."He could do whatever he liked, but heaven forbid if someone else

Selena gave a professional smile and entered the elevator. She made her way to the president's office together with Joey.A mischievous voice came from the inside. "Is Chloe here?"Selena and Joey froze at the door. Kent happened to come out at this time and met gazes with the two women. They stood there dumbly until Selena came to her senses. She was the first to react and said, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Simons. I'm Selena Sanders, Emmen Fashion's boss, also known as Chloe."Kent shook hands with Selena, but his gaze was on Joey the whole time. He asked, "And this is …"Selena introduced, "She's my assistant."Kent almost failed to hold back a snicker. He cocked his head sideways and faced the inside of the office. He teased, "Hey Zachary, are you going broke soon?"Joey followed Kent's line of vision. She saw a familiar figure on the sofa faced backward to them. She could recognize him from the back, even if it was just a side profile. He was none other than Zachary. She pursed
