All Chapters of The CEO's Amazing Ex-Wife Is Back!: Chapter 371 - Chapter 380

After driving home, Tessa stepped into the house, shutting the door behind her as she let out a deep breath.To her surprise, her mother was still awake, sitting on the couch with a book in her lap. Her reading glasses were perched on her nose, making her look serious in such an endearing way.A small smile tugged at Tessa’s lips. It wasn’t uncommon for her mom to stay up reading, but tonight, it felt like she’d been waiting for her.A lot of her colleagues wondered why she was still living with her parents at this stage when she had enough to get herself a house or apartment like her brother had done. The truth was, to Tessa, she'd rather always be surrounded by family love then to love alone.“You’re back,” her mother noted, looking up from her book. “How was your date?”Tessa hesitated, forcing a smile. “It was… great.”Her mother raised an eyebrow, unconvinced. Without a word, she tapped the empty space beside her on the couch.Sighing, Tessa walked over and sank onto the couch. S

TWO DAYS LATERGendry ran, putting one tired foot in front of the other. He had set the treadmill to the highest speed, hoping it would help him outrun the memories of Tessa that refused to leave his head. But the more he ran, the more they stayed ahead of him.Her mesmerizing brown eyes. Her smooth, clear skin. Her dazzling smile and cute laugh. The way her gorgeous hair stuck to her flushed face. The warmth of her body as he drove into her. Those sweet moans of pleasure as she came.Oh, for Pete’s sake.Trying to stop thinking about her was an exercise in futility. He had been trying for the past two months without success.Not even the fact that he knew she now belonged to someone else could stop his mind.Gendry ran until the burn in his legs became too intense to ignore. He slammed his fingers om the stop button, keeping pace until the treadmill finally slowed to a halt.Jumping off, he limped toward the bench where he had hung his towel and sank down. Around him, people were ste

“…our revenue dropped by 8.6% last year. But as we can all see, our performance this year has improved to the point that we're projected to make up for 6.6% of that percentage drop.”Tessa addressed the board of executives in the conference room, pausing to let the information sink in. “That's quite an achievement, but I think we can all agree that it’s not enough. Two percent is a big deal, and TT Fashion has to be able to recover that and more. We…”She trailed off as her vision blurred. Gripping the backrest of her chair for balance, she blinked rapidly, and the dizziness passed.“Tessa, are you alright?” the marketing department executive asked, a frown creasing her forehead.“Yes, I’m fine,” Tessa responded.And she was. Mostly anyways. She’d been experiencing dizzy spells for the past two weeks, chalking it up to fatigue. But now that she knew she was pregnant, the spells had become more obvious, especially when she stood for too long.Plastering on a composed smile, she swept h

Gendry stared at her, waiting for her to say something.Unbidden, a single tear slid down Tessa's cheek. “You're only saying these things because you found out about my pregnancy. It's not necessary, Gendry. You don’t have to force yourself to be with me out of obligation.”A growl of frustration rumbled from Gendry’s throat. “Jesus, Tessa. Why would you think I’m forcing myself to be with you?”“Because I know you don’t consider me good enough for a relationship with you!”For several seconds, Gendry just stared at her, utterly dumbfounded. “What? Where did you get that from, Tessa?”“The day we went to help set up the photo booth, you told me in the car that because of everything your dad did to your mom, you never slept with any woman unless you were in a relationship with her. I was the only exception. The only woman you agreed to have a meaningless fling with.”Gendry exhaled sharply, rubbing his temples. “And from that, you assumed I don’t think you’re good enough for a relation

Tessa gripped the steering wheel, staring blankly at the closed door of their home. She had driven onto the driveway but had not turned off the ignition, so the engine was still on. Yet, she barely heard it over the chaotic thoughts pounding in her head.Henry.Her father.No; her biological father.The words felt foreign. She repeated them in her mind, trying to make them feel real, but they didn’t fit. They didn’t belong to her. They couldn’t.Her hands trembled in her lap, her knuckles still tight around the steering wheel. She should go inside. She should push this evening far, far away. She should act like it never happened.But how?Her father, the only father she’d ever known, was Kris Miller. And now, suddenly, there was this man. This stranger, claiming to be the one who had been robbed of her.Tessa squeezed her eyes shut.A sharp knock on the window made her jerk upright. She turned her head to find one of the security guards standing beside her car, his face creased with c
