All Chapters of Ex-Husband Wants Me Back : Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Lessie’s POVI rolled my eyes inwardly. Of course I’m burning up, and it’s all because of you, Benjamin! Can’t you tell? I didn’t say it out loud, but I was fuming inside.I forced myself to take a deep breath.“I’m fine. It’s nothing,” I said in a quiet, shaky voice.I still couldn’t bring myself to look in Freddie’s direction, but I knew they were watching. I could feel their eyes on me like heat on my skin.That’s when Ella showed up. She’d changed out of her swimwear.“Oh wow, Benjamin, you’re already here!” she said with a sweet smile, clearly excited to see him. She didn’t seem to notice my mood until she came closer.I shot her a sharp look, not hiding my irritation at all.“What’s wrong, Lessie?” she asked, pretending to be clueless.Well, she probably wasn’t pretending. I knew she truly didn’t understand what was going on in my head, she’s not a mind reader after all. But still, she was the reason I was so upset.If she hadn’t invited Benjamin without telling me, none of this

Lessie's POV“Where are they?” Ella asked as soon as she saw me returning. I raised my hand to stop her. “Hold on, I’ll be right back.”I walked over to the security guard and asked where the restroom was. He pointed in a direction, and I thanked him.“They’re in the restroom,” I told the others. “Let’s go.”We started walking to where the guard had pointed, but just when I thought things couldn’t get any worse today, I was proven wrong.Seriously, what kind of day is this?As we got closer to the restroom, I spotted two people, Collins and Lora. My heart skipped.Freddie’s friends? What are they doing here?I didn’t want them to see me, so I quickly stepped back and hid around the corner. Thankfully, the others noticed my sudden movement and quickly joined me.“What are they doing here?” Ella whispered. She might not have known them well before, but after seeing them at the pool earlier, she recognized them now.“I have no idea,” I muttered, shaking my head.“They look like they’re w

Freddie's POV After leaving the swimming area, I suddenly felt the urge to use the restroom. I went in, did my business, and was about to leave when I heard a noise coming from one of the stalls.At first, I tried to ignore it, but the noise continued. It sounded like something was breaking, then suddenly, I heard a painful cry.That was when I rushed into the stall. What I saw made my eyes widen.A little boy was on the floor, and there was blood all over.“What happened here?” I asked, though the scene already told me most of the story.The sink had shattered. From the way things looked, I guessed the boy had tried to clean up the broken glass but ended up cutting himself. He didn’t stop though, he just kept picking up the glass, ignoring the pain.It was probably one sharp, long piece that had cut him deeply. I noticed it lying nearby, still dripping with blood.“Hey, are you okay?” I asked gently after taking a look around.The boy didn’t respond. He didn’t even look up. He just

Lessie's POV After bathing, I stepped out of the bathroom and sat in front of the dressing mirror. I don’t usually do that, but I just didn’t feel like leaving the room yet.I applied some lotion to my skin, even though I had no idea what I was doing. Ella always says there’s a proper way to apply skincare products, but since she wasn’t around to instruct me, I did it my own way.Once I let the lotion soak in, I got dressed and finally left the room, heading for the living room.As I got closer, I immediately sensed the tense atmosphere. The air felt heavy.I pressed my lips together, then tried to act normal. “Where is everybody? Are you all still sleeping?” I called out, trying to sound cheerful.But when I entered the living room, I saw the kids curled up on the couch. What’s going on?Ella and Nanny Adele were sitting too, both looking serious and quiet.Their expressions made it clear they were still upset about what happened at the hotel last night. Oh no, why didn’t I think th

Lessie's POV I kept my head low and focused on my food, not lifting it even once. My stomach grumbling wasn’t helping at all, it was loud and embarrassing.So annoying.Ella and the kids just stared at me, clearly shocked.I ignored them and continued eating without saying a word or looking up.After a while, their stares started to get on my nerves. It felt like their eyes were poking into my skin.I frowned and looked up at them. “What?” I snapped. “Is there something on my face?”Still, no one said anything.I hissed and raised my voice. “Can you all stop staring at me? I’m not some kind of statue, you know!”That finally brought Ella back to reality. She still looked surprised, probably because of how loudly my stomach had growled. Her face seemed to say, “Really? You were that hungry? Then why were you acting so tough earlier?”I wanted to bury myself in shame, but what was the point?I turned to Ella and said, “Tell the kids to close their mouths.” Since she had come back to he
