บททั้งหมดของ The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife: บทที่ 271 - บทที่ 280

"Hi, I’m Catherine, but you can call me Cat for short," Hector’s sister said, extending her hand to Lake, to everyone’s shock.Hector was upset but careful not to worsen matters and remained silent.Lake frowned deeply but did not attempt to accept the handshake.About to reject her, Coco pushed him aside, standing protectively in front of him as she waved her ring finger, flaunting the engagement ring."Too late, Pussy Cat. This man right here is engaged to a stunning woman like me, so shush away from him," Coco shooed her away like a dangerous fly, causing Catherine’s brows to crease from embarrassment.Zora and Madison found themselves giggling aloud, deepening Catherine’s embarrassment.To make matters worse, Lake wrapped his arms around Coco’s waist from behind and kissed the crook of her neck."You know that no woman can take me away from you right? In fact, in my eyes, you are the only woman I see."Coco’s cheeks crimsoned at his heartfelt words, and all her friends were happy

Zora's mischievous side took over, causing her to put the phone on speaker instead of ending the call.It felt like eavesdropping on their best friends as they heard Lake’s voice.“Baby, if you're pregnant, why don't we try again? If we increase the frequency, maybe we'll have twins.”Zora and Ezrah's laughter made Coco realize she hadn't hung up the call, inadvertently activating the speaker due to Lake's silly words.Coco couldn't tell if he was joking, given the seriousness on his face.“Ezrah and Zora are laughing at you,” she revealed, but Lake didn't seem bothered, knowing Coco was already on a call when he entered the bedroom.Coco elaborated, “Once a baby is conceived, nothing can be added to it. Did you even go to school?”Zora and Ezrah laughed on the other end, but Lake chuckled. He knew that already but was only teasing her with his words previously.“No, I didn't. What I meant was, I wish we could have twins.”Lake wanted the sound of children in the big mansion and was ea

Piper was relieved to see her parents and not Madison, as she had feared.Now she was certain that somebody would fight for her against the injustice she was facing in prison, except that she forgot one small detail.Her parents were no longer in the position they used to be in before.Breaking down, all she wanted to do was melt into their arms, but unlike the time she sat face to face with Madison, she was separated from her parents by a glass.She could not touch them, and even their voices could only be heard from the intercom.Both her parents broke down at the sight of her, and her mother was the first to speak.“Piper, how did this happen? We were kidnapped and thought you were coming for us, but all we heard after being released was the news of you being here. Why did you attack the officer?” her father chastised.It was very hard for him when he realized the depth of his daughter’s crimes.Not even the best lawyers would be able to defend her because of all the evidence again

Zora remembered how he constantly talked about making her happy every day, understanding that the man was serious about it.Still, her attention was drawn to the rain, as she wondered how Ezrah was able to come up with the amazing concept of hearing the raindrops in the igloo despite the materials used for it.“I plan for us to spend the night here, Zora. I don’t think the rain will stop anytime soon.”He loved that she loved everything, especially the magical rain, but was nervous about knowing her thoughts on what he had prepared for her.This was the final thing he had worked on in the last couple of weeks, and the result had to be pleasing to her, or else everything would be useless.Zora got the message, pulling her attention from the raindrops on the igloo and the ambiance of the garden around it, and focusing on the huge item on the bed.She sat beside it and carefully began to unravel it to reveal a large Iris cream cappuccino cake.It wasn't either of their birthdays, so she w

Madison pushed a food trolley over to them and said, “My job is done. See you at the wedding.”Although she was supposed to report to work the next day, she hoped that Ezrah would let her off since there were things she could still do from home.Zora did not have to ask what Madison was doing there.It was clear that she was the master planner in everything, but with the pending wedding, Zora couldn't help but ask.“Does this mean you've already started your leave?”“Exactly,” Madison said, staring at Ezrah as she desperately appealed to his conscience. She loved her job, but this time around, she needed a break.“It’s okay. Bring in that guy you talked about tomorrow, and you can begin your leave after,” Ezrah finally relented to Madison’s request for a break.That guy was supposed to be Madison’s assistant, and she chose a male because Ezrah had informed her about the prank Zora had played on him with her secretary.He also knew that within the next one or two years, she would no lo
