All Chapters of Chasing My Ex-wife Back : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

BRIANI had to admit something. I saw Ruby more than my patient's mother. She had a special place in my heart.Yes. I liked Ruby. I wasn't sure when I started developing a feeling of friendship toward Ruby, perhaps due to the constant meetings over the years. I didn't even remember when we became friends. All went naturally.And of course, when I said I liked her, it came in a set. I liked Austin as well.So it struck me the moment I found the same guy from the restaurant and clinic standing in front of Ruby's door. No one said anything but their eyes, Ruby's reaction, and Wyatt's persistence... I knew right away that I had a tough opponent.I had to beat the man from Ruby's past who might be Austin's father."Use your instep to kick straight." I taught Austin during our play. He had a high spirit, running here and there with a ball at his feet. Sometimes he missed the ball because he was too energetic with his run, or the ball went right when he was supposed to kick straight.Typical

RUBYHaving arguments with Wyatt constantly drained my energy. He seemed to find a way to counter my every word and annoy me.Like today.I was lost for words when he decided to drop us off at the Botanical Garden, even though no one asked him to do so."Text me after you finish. I'll pick you up here." Wyatt instructed us upon our arrival at the main gate. It was still morning. But there were a lot of people around us and walking toward the main entrance. "Do you understand, little Superman?"I rolled my eyes at his question. He learned to use my son to deliver his messages instead of talking to me."Yes, Uncle," Austin responded obediently. They were like partner in crime now."And remember to always be with your mom. Okay?"Au nodded. "Roger, Uncle."I almost chuckled hearing that. But I quickly managed to conceal my emotions by maintaining a flat expression. I took the tote bag before anyone realised what had happened. Additionally, I urged my son to leave the car. "Let's go, hone

WYATT"We find Austin."I couldn't help but stop when I heard that. My heart was beating wildly as hope rose inside me. I hoped she talked about my son, not another Austin.I looked at Ruby, who did the same. She stopped in her tracks and then began to walk hesitantly toward the staff."Is that my son?" The question sounded unsure, but Ruby didn't stop walking.The staff didn't answer right away. Instead, the staff talked to her colleague. "Is that really Austin we're looking for?"I subconsciously held my breath until a reply came. "Yes. It's Austin. He is looking for his mother."Only then did I breathe in relief. They found my son.Meanwhile, Ruby dropped to her knees after hearing the news. Tears began pouring down her cheeks. "Thank God." And she murmured the same words over and over.Yes. We were grateful that Austin returned to us."Where is he?" I asked the staff. Although we were relieved that they found Austin, I still had to see him myself to wash away my fear and worry."D

WYATT"Why don’t you come for dinner?"My eyes almost popped out at the question when I dropped Ruby and Austin off at their house after we spent a nice time at the Botanical Garden. Usually, our informal deal was that I stayed through the weekend. However, I had planned to leave early today because I knew Ruby needed time alone with Austin.But this... The sudden offer clearly surprised me."What?" Okay. I heard her. I just wanted to ensure that Ruby didn't mispeak and that the offer was still valid.Ruby took a deep breath, and when I thought she would snap or be unwilling to repeat her words, she did. "Why don’t you come for dinner?"I looked at her through the rearview, and our gazes met. To another surprise, Ruby didn't turn away. "Are you inviting me?" It was too sudden, so I couldn't help but feel confused."Yes. Austin would be happy if you could join us for dinner."It turned out to be about Austin. I felt joy only to be destroyed immediately.Still, I would go for it. I woul

RUBYMy mind refused to work after hearing what Wyatt said. Someone from our past would visit me. It was against the deal.But it was Harry. Everyone knew his reputation—he never revealed secrets. His presence alone was enough.Still, he would see me, and I wasn't sure how to react to him.Wyatt seemed to read my mind because he then uttered, "Don't worry. I've asked him to wait outside and call me when he arrives."Hearing that, I should have felt at ease, right?However, my feelings were far from relieved. Instead, guilt enveloped me. Harry was a good man. Being with him reminded me that there was still the ordinary Ruby behind Mrs Logan, and I could show my true self without being afraid of being judged.Unfortunately, just as I had to leave others I loved from my past life without a word or a goodbye, I had to leave him the same way. And now Harry would be in front of my house, which I believed he didn't know was mine."You dont need to greet him," Wyatt said again, forcing me to
