Semua Bab CHASING MY EX-CONTRACT WIFE: Bab 101 - Bab 110

BRENT’S POVAfter Priscilla returned from shopping with the kids last night, her mood had for some reason become sour. She barely talked to me or the kids, even. All she did was put the minor things they bought away and when I tried to ask what was wrong, she brushed me off with her signature response. “I'm fine, there's no problem.” “You know you have to talk to me when you get issues like this, I can't help you if you keep staying silent.” I'd said after sneaking up to her in the kitchen but she was still giving me a cold shoulder. I'd thought it was just me who did something to upset her but she was going all out on the kids too. She snapped at them at every slight inconvenience, leaving them teary or surprised. “Priscilla, you can't keep yelling at the kids because you're upset, just tell me what's going on, I'm sure we can find a way around it.” I told her after we'd managed to put the kids to bed. “It's fine, I'm just tired, I need to rest.” She withdrew her hands from min

PRISCILLA’S POVWatching Brent leave the house gave me sort of relief. It felt like I was finally able to breathe properly. He's been staring at me, watching every of my movements and acting like I'm a fragile glass, trying to hold and touch me at every slight inconvenience. The way he won't take his eyes off me, even while we were with the kids, made me feel uneasy for a bit. I wanted to assure him that I was fine and didn't need to be watched over like a kid but I couldn't shake Pamela's last words off either. They sounded like a threat and after the fire incident, I've slowly thought myself to be wary of threats, especially as they could put my kids in danger. “Mummy, can we have ice cream before going to bed?” As usual, Aiden was trying out his luck with me again but he got a smile instead. “No, Aiden. You have school tomorrow, okay? You can't take ice cream tonight.” I told him and he stuck to watching the television instead. An hour after Brent left, I got a message notific

BRENT’S POV“Ughhh, what the hell?” I groaned at the first ray of light that hit my face. I tried to open my eyes but the sunlight shining brightly into my face sent me cowering almost immediately. That split second made it feel like I was losing my eyesight. However, there was more to come. My head started banging almost immediately. It felt like I was in the midst of a chainsaw and was getting my head ripped apart. “Where am I?” I muttered because my head and mind felt cloudy and foggy, I couldn't actually remember anything, neither could I look around because the slightest pain would send my headache off. I held my head tightly because any single attempt to let go made it feel like I would lose my head. The ache in my head increased with every second, while my eyes burned crazily and my stomach churned loudly. “What the heck is going on with me?” I asked myself but didn't get the chance to answer that because the next thing I could mutter was a loud retching sound. Thankfully

Chapter hundred and eightPamela's pov “Why is it so dark in here?” I mumbled, trying to walk carefully without tripping over done thing. My heels clicked on the floor and I could hear my footsteps echoing. I was about to take out my phone from my bag when I heard the voice I dreaded most. “Can't you walk a bit more quietly?” I heard her voice behind me and froze. It was dark in the lair so I couldn't see her but I had her face engraved in my mind so I could tell she had an irritated frown on her face and the distance with which she'd stopped, made me sense that she was closely behind me. My breath paused for few seconds in anticipation for her next words and for some reason, the darkness I complained about just few minutes ago was now a blessing. “I…uhm, I didn't know you were there.” I managed to stutter but I heard her scoff instead before shoving me out if the way, almost hauling me into a pile of abandoned items. I winced in pain but didn't make a sound, I heard her footstep

PAMELA’S POVI was left in awe of how she was and to pull off the party without giving anything away. “Just how evil are you?” I thought to myself, forcefully tearing my gaze away from her. “More like just how desperate is she?” My subconscious interfered. Back at the lair before the party, Evelyn had told Jack and I about a new plan she was working on which was a way to trap Brent and make him stick to me. At first, I didn't believe any of the things she said but as usual, I had no choice but to listen to her. “You cannot mess this up.” She said to me with all of her attention directed at me. “So, it's a quick plan that should work better than any of the things Jack has been doing. Brent gave me a day off and I thought of something that would work. I'm having a birthday party.” She said and I was stunned. “What does a birthday party have to do with any of this?” I asked cluelessly and she let out a mischievous smirk. “You definitely are not a match for me. It's simple, I'll p
