Semua Bab The Rejected Ex-wife: Bab 31 - Bab 40

Things were coming along slowly with the JL Architectures launch.June and Lucy worked hand in hand as they slowly arranged the office while June sought out clients in need of her architectural skills, as well as properties she could develop and make into something profitable.A large chunk of the money she had received had gone down with making the office a homey place, and she didn’t for one moment regret making the place into what she envisioned.The only problem was the incessant lack of customers and clients. All efforts to secure paying customers in need of her services had proved futile, and she was on the verge of losing her mind.One of the days, after going through the series of rejections from prospective clients she pitched for, she was ready to call it a day and headed downstairs in search of Luis.Perhaps he could get her out of the mood she felt at the moment.Unfortunately, Luis was still busy with his classes, and the last thing she wanted was to be the reason he was

June noticed Lucy's unusual quietness as they approached the hotel where Ethan and April’s party would be held.“We will get down here, Thomas. You can park the car and come right in afterward,” she said to Thomas, who hummed in response, doing as he was told.Judging from the card she received, the party had started three hours ago, and they were extremely late. Good thing that she wasn’t aiming to make an impression. Seeing as she never thought she would be attending the party, she had come here with zero plans.This meant that other than the fact she was about to set eyes on the woman who ruined her life, she had no idea what to do or how to approach the matter. Thankfully, she had always known how to wing things.The duo soon got out of the car and trudged into the place, turning in their invites at the gate. The security was tight, as there were a lot of important people at the said event.“Name,” the security official asked, looking at June with curious eyes.Lucy was afraid, bu

June couldn’t help the irritation that stroked her heart at the tone of the woman in front of her. After the night she’d had, the last thing she needed was another woman trying to get on her nerves.“Who are you, and why are you here?!” the woman screeched when June didn’t spare her a word.“I should be asking you, seeing as you came to my home.”A scoff. “Your home? Where the hell is Rafael?!”“What are you doing here?” a cold voice said from behind June.Rafael and Luis had joined the party. June stepped away from the door, refusing to handle any unnecessary drama. The woman in front of her seemed to have no shortage of drama to unleash.“Rafe... Who is this woman, and why is she in your home this late at night?”June couldn’t help but notice the fondness in her tone as she spoke to her husband. What was their relationship?Rafael seemed to be running short of patience, and instead of answering, he moved to close the door, but the woman stuck a leg into his home.“Mother said I coul

“That’s it! She can’t get married to you! Over my dead body!” Olivia rampaged into the Lontoc family home.Gary had summoned April and Ethan after Olivia returned with news of how she was walked out of the office by security at April’s words.“This wench will never be my daughter-in-law! Not while I am alive!”“Enough!” Gary Lontoc hit his walker on the floor with a frown on his face.“This wench—”“Sit down, Olivia!” Ethan’s father roared, barking into a fit of coughs afterward.April held a lasting bitch face as she watched their interaction, unbothered to a fault. When they all settled, Ethan’s father continued.“What exactly is going on in this family?” he said to his son. “What is this I am hearing?”“Father,” Ethan said with quivering lips. “It was all a misunderstanding. Mother came to the office, and things escalated. It won’t happen again.”“That does not answer my question, Ethan.” Gary took a seat on the chair, and his eyes focused on April, who was yet to say a word. “Why

Marie stayed outside the house until Rafael returned. With all her things inside the house, including her phone, she had no other choice.All the while, she fussed and screamed at the top of her voice until she was sore. She then sat on the floor, brimming with anger. When she became Rafael’s wife, she would kick that little thing out and make him regret being mean to her!Watching him play with that maid while she stood outside in the cold made her feel a new wave of anger. No matter how much she ordered the slut to open the door, it fell on deaf ears.Meanwhile, June opened her room using the keys that were abandoned on the cushion following her baby’s little stunt. Luis could never do wrong in her eyes, and as she helped him put puzzle pieces together, her mind remained stuck on the video sent to her.She wanted to watch it in the comfort of her room, without any distractions and with a clear mind. That was the only way she could get the meat of the video and find things hidden in
