Semua Bab MY EX-HUSBAND’S REMORSE: Bab 101 - Bab 110

YSABELLE “Why didn't you tell me?” Ronan’s jaw clenched as he stared at me, causing my legs to weaken. I know he's angry at me for not telling what Connor had said.“I'm afraid you will act madly–”“Of course I am!”I flinched at his sudden outburst and immediately covered his mouth. I pulled him out of the hallway and entered his office. “Ronan, I'm sorry. But I am also hesitant to believe what Connor said. We need confirmation to clarify the facts first before getting furious.”He walked back and forth in front of me, not even listening to my words. He angrily scratched his head and slammed his body off the couch; aggravation was painted all over his face. “Ronan…” I lowered down, caressing his thigh to get his attention. “Tell me what you are thinking.”“I'm confused.”“Which is it?”He sighed deeply and met my eyes; the wrinkles in between his brows made me frown as well.“If Connor is my brother on my father's side, how can he be a father of Jacob? Jacob and I don't have any

YSABELLE The sun cast a luminescent glow as soon as we landed at Campeche International Airport. We headed straight to Cabañas Laguna, Isla Aguada, to gather information about what Connor had planned before. I hope the tip given by Candice is useful.After almost two hours, we stopped in front of a small and cozy hotel. A garden setting surrounds a decent-sized pool. With help from the Mexican authorities, we can easily enter the place as they are already getting inside the hotel, together with the Canadian and US police officers who handled the case of Connor in each country.I noticed that Ronan remained still in his seat while his eyes glued outside, watching the officers check the inside first with their firearms.“Are we not going inside?”“They have to make sure the place is safe for us, Belle.”I nodded and leaned on my seat. Seeing the hotel and pool made me realize we've never been hanging out again with the kids since the problem with Connor occurred.I want Jacob to go b

RONANWaiting in a visitors' lounge here in a psychiatric hospital in Ottawa with Jacob gives me a different feeling.Yeah, I've decided to let Jacob meet his mother.Weirdly, I'm the one who's deciding it, though I'm not his biological father.How can I abandon him? His parents are not stable enough to raise him. One of the staff helped us get through the room where Jacob and Candice met.“Jacob!”“Mommy!”As soon as we open the door, Jacob sprints to Candice, who's impatiently waiting inside the room.Seeing the kid tightly hug Candice made me realize I almost ignored Jacob's will to meet his mother. I forgot that he's been a mama's boy since birth.I left the room and gave them privacy to cope with the things they missed. I guess it's already been a month since they parted ways with each other.I waited outside the room and sat on the empty bench. I'm worn out on the flight.There's still no news about Connor or Paul. The tip that Candice gave was a great help. The documents conta

YSABELLE As I arrived home before dinner, I saw Ronan drinking whiskey on the couch. He looked worn out as he chugged down the glass before his eyes met mine.I avoided his eyes and took off my heels because it was killing my toes.“Where did you go?”“I met my father,” I said as I walked past him, heading upstairs. I'm doubting Ronan’s intention in getting back with me and helping my father's company. Is he the same as some money-addict rich asshole who only loves themselves for being a wealthy freak?My father is a great example.Why am I doubting Ronan? Even his feelings for me.Father brainwashed me again.I throw my heels inside the closet and feel exhausted.“What's wrong?” I was startled at Ronan’s presence behind me. “Nothing.”I took off my clothes to change into comfortable ones despite Ronan’s heavy sigh behind me. I want to ask him what's bothering him because it's obvious he's worrying about something.He just came back from Canada with Jacob. Why does he look trouble

YSABELLEMy fingers curled around the phone as irritation slowly reached my nerves. Hearing her voice again after fooling me together with Paul made my rage come back in an instant."What do you want?" I gritted my teeth as I walked away from the servants and headed inside my old room."I called you because I can't reach your father."I annoyingly sigh. "Where did you get my number?""Won't you ask why I'm connected to your father?"I rolled my eyes as I remembered how she seduced an old man to get money from him. This bitch still has the guts to call me and talk to me as if we haven't been in touch with each other as a best friend."Do you think I care? And if he's the one you want to speak with, don't call me. Bye.""Wait!" I halted and was confused by her desperate voice. "I have something crucial in my hands that can ruin your father's reputation."My jaw clenched at her remarks. "Don't give me bullshit, Shaine.""What? I thought we were friends. Friends should tell each other sec
