All Chapters of Chasing My Ex-wife Back : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

RUBY"What are you doing in your free time?" I asked the woman beside me. She is tall, beautiful, talented, and definitely young.Did I know her?Yes, because she was one of my bodyguards, Katy."Reading books, hanging out, making new friends," Katy replied, mentioning some activities while she was off duty."Oh, that's fun," I responded, taking a box of balloons from the shelf, then putting it into the trolley. I was in the middle of shopping for Austin's birthday as we planned to throw a little party for him. However, Wyatt couldn't accompany me since he had to return to New York. So here I was. Roaming around the supermarket with my best bodyguard. Somehow, it brought me nostalgia. In the past, I also had my own bodyguard, and I would occasionally invite them to join me for shopping or a coffee. "Do you make a lot of friends?" I asked again."Not really. I prefer a quiet place, so it's rare to find a new friend in such a place." She uttered it, taking steps to follow me, but still

RUBY"Chance? What chance?""To love you, be a man you can rely on, and be Austin’s father."I swallowed hard as those words slowly registered in my head. It turned out to be true. All their assumption were happening at the moment.How?"D-Don’t be joking." I stammered as nervousness took over me. I hoped it was a joke he threw, like he used to.But who was joking about their feelings and confession?Which Brian denied with his every word. "I’m not joking, Ruby. I’m serious. What I feel for you is real. I love you." And he made sure there wouldn't be any misunderstandings. They all were true.Still, how?I bit my bottom lip, realizing that my answer was obvious, even before my friends saw the sign on Brian. "You are my friend." And it remains the same now as it was then.Silence fell between us for a few seconds that felt like eternity. Then I suddenly regretted my decision to go with him and have this conversation. At least, we wouldn't be in this awkward situation when confession, r

WYATTA week had passed, and everything seemed to be perfect. Moreover, it was my son's birthday.It was my turn to celebrate his birthday, and I couldn't help but feel excited, even though I was a bit nervous. I was afraid that I would make a mistake.However, Ruby assured me that everything was going to be fine. She also said that Austin would be happier to have us on his birthday, especially with the gifts.Well, it is understandable that a child loves presents.Austin's birthday was on Friday, and I had particularly cleared my schedule so I could spend the whole day with him. However, Ruby and I decided to throw a party on Saturday instead, as it was the weekend. It would give our friends ample time to come here and help us prepare the surprise.Our guests were already at Ruby's place, and necessity had been set when we left the house to pick up our son. R had also informed them about our arrival near home. So here we were. Heading inside the house after Ruby opened the door for u

WYATTI said it.Finally, I said that I wanted her to be my 'anything'.It wasn't a surprise, anyway, since my presence and purpose were clear. I wanted Ruby back.I wanted us back.However, she hadn't given me the answer. She seemed flustered when I made a confession last night and quickly ran away to her room. She left me hanging and awake all night. However, the good news was that there wasn't a rejection."What? Why do I see a smile here?" Kevin approached the kitchen, where I took a bottle to refill our drink.But I stayed for a while since the view from here was remarkable. It was just a casual gathering with our friends, like we usually did. But what caught my attention was Ruby and Austin. They sat next to each other because Austin asked her to read him a book. It was Nicolas' present.Speaking about Nicolas, I was still curious about him."I’m happy, so I smile," I replied to him shortly."Yeah. I know you're happy. I can see it since yesterday. But what makes me question is

WYATTI kissed her.I almost forgot that she tastes soft and sweet, and finally, I could taste it again.But I had to restrain myself because the kiss couldn't go deeper and only lasted for no more than three seconds.I withdrew myself, only to find Ruby blinking repeatedly and seeming to be startled by my action. And it made me regret when her expression stayed for a few seconds longer. "I'm sorry. I couldn't hold it."She looked at me, still blinking, before she gasped as realization hit her far too late. "B-bathroom. I need to go to the bathroom." She stammered and, without waiting for my reply, she dashed to the bathroom and left me dazed at her reaction.But then, a chuckle came out when I realized she must be embarrassed. I spotted a red tint before she left, making her look more adorable.Ruby is indeed a breath of fresh air.I waited for her for five minutes, but she seemed to need more time. Okay, five more minutes. Still, no hint of her appearance. And when another five minu
