Semua Bab The CEO's Fabulous Ex-Wife: Bab 71 - Bab 80

Ezrah was even more upset. “How many madams have ever been in this house except my wife?” The butler smiled, as if recalling something. “Oh, Mrs. Gannon of blessed memory. She…” “Stop saying that. She’s not dead,” Ezrah quickly cut him off. The butler was puzzled. Ezrah never mentioned Zora after her death, but everybody knew how it affected him, including his sleep. Also, he never brought any woman here. The butler wanted to remind him that Zora was no longer alive. “Sir…” “She’s alive,” Ezrah quickly said, knowing exactly what was on his mind. Not just the butler, but the maids cleaning the house were also shocked as Ezrah explained. “Her death was faked, so what does she like?” He asked. The butler thought for a while and revealed, “Honestly, sir, I don’t know what she likes. I only bought her gifts that my wife liked, and she always seemed happy. I can’t tell if she really liked them or if it was all because she thought they were from you.” Ezrah let out a deep breath. The si

“Do you know him?” Edmund asked Michelle. Madison was not surprised to see her boss since he was Lake’s best friend, but she felt it wasn’t fair for Lake to have her invite Michelle over when Ezrah was coming with Piper. Michelle was so pained by Piper’s presence that she pretended not to have heard the question, but Rush replied in her stead. “That is her ex-husband.” He hoped that would be enough to scare Edmund away, so he would only have Ezrah to deal with. Edmund almost spit out the drink in his mouth, feeling like this was the most outrageous thing he had heard in years. “Ex what?” He might be a star, but the man he saw was not ordinary. There was just an aura about him that Edmund could not pinpoint. Pride was one of the words among many. Over two years of friendship, and Michelle never mentioned being married before. He could not decipher what it meant for her to have kept something so important a secret from him when she confessed to liking him so much. “You never told

Knowing that Ezrah was still in love with Michelle, he termed it that way before pulling River from the floor. Dragging him out of the stall, Lake smashed his head against the wash hand basin. River was seeing stars and the pain was unbearable. Blood gushed out from the wound it created. “You should be glad it wasn’t my best friend who caught you,” Lake threw him on the floor and the punches were just the way he remembered them. Over decades ago, a group of girls had gang-beaten his sister, Margo. When Lake went to teach them a lesson, he was overpowered by their brothers and boyfriends. Lake thought he was going to die when that quiet boy from his class came through for him. That quiet boy was Ezrah and they never even spoke before then. Ezrah sustained some injuries but the thugs spent weeks in the hospital after what he did to them. It was later that Lake found out about Ezrah’s elder brothers. He had toughened up to stop them from bullying hm. However, since Ezrah could not b

Sebastian was in the restaurant manager's office, watching everything on CCTV footage.His heart was shattered, and he had lost interest. With the confirmation he needed, he decided not to see Piper anymore. When Ezrah sent a text, he didn't reply or act on it.However, he didn't expect Ezrah to openly call him out with certainty that he was there. In this case, Michelle would know that his attention towards her was only because he realized who Piper was. It would have been better for him to forget Piper and not show up. Later, he planned to meet up with Michelle and woo her, but Ezrah ruined it for him.The son of a bitch had already made everyone realize that Sebastian had been part of the plan. If he refused to accept the invitation, he would not be surprised that Ezrah would come and drag his ass out.The guy was as crazy as hell. Gritting his teeth, Sebastian thanked the restaurant manager and walked out of the office. All eyes were glued to the door in anticipation of which Se

“Slap her,” Ezrah ordered, the waitress’s eyes widened, and so did Piper's. Could Ezrah really do this to her, considering his relationship with her father?No, she must be overthinking it. The waitress was equally hesitant. The woman the rich customer was instructing her to assault was his fiancée.Perhaps he was pranking her. “I beg your pardon?” Ezrah lost his patience, and his expression hardened. “Back off. You can’t do it.” He turned around, about to request another waitress when one approached him.“Sir, I can do it because I need the money. My rent is due, I have bills to pay, and my sick mother’s cancer treatment bills are outrageous.” Ezrah liked this one and said, “A thousand dollars for a slap.” The waitress dropped her tray on the table and without asking again, she slapped Piper so hard her neck turned to the side, and she fell from the chair.Standing up with teary eyes, Ezrah asked her, “Are you ready to spill the truth now?”Piper endured not only the shame but als
