บททั้งหมดของ CHASING MY EX-CONTRACT WIFE: บทที่ 21 - บทที่ 30

“Chloe.” I called and, hearing her voice from my office, headed there. “What are you doing here?” My voice faded off as I saw what she was holding. I grabbed the package of toy she had been opening, seeing the others that were already opened on the floor. “What is your problem?” I asked in fury.She continued staring at me wordlessly, and I dropped the package I’d collected from her. “Chloe.” “What is this? I’ve not heard from you in a few months, and now I’m seeing children’s toys in your house. Are you planning an orphanage visit?”I rolled my eyes at her sarcastic question. We had a team for things like that, and she was part of it so she definitely knew that wasn’t the case. “Why did you have to look through my things then? I’ve told you to stop it.”She crossed her arms and glared at me. “You keep on ignoring my calls. You don’t answer mom’s either. I’m worried about you and I want to know what’s going on in your life. The only way I can find that out is when I go through your t

PRISCILLA’S POVI rubbed my shaking hands on my thigh as the models were being made up and dressed. It was finally D-Day, and all the nerves I’d been feeling prior to this day had multiplied. I looked around for Carlie, surprised when she was nowhere to be found. The backstage was milling with models and designers screaming orders and last minute fixings.I saw my team and went to them. “Is everything ready?” I asked the stylists.One of the ladies who was working on a model turned to me. “What do we do? She has gained weight since our last fitting, so the cloth looks odd on her.” she complained, eyeing the dress that did look too small for her frame.I turned to the model who looked no older than seventeen years, who was sobbing and held back the anger that was burning in me. “What happened?” I asked her.“I’m so sorry.” She turned to an older woman who was probably her agent since the show had a rule on minors not appearing alone, who was looking disgusted and the woman, noticing my

PRISCILLA POVAs I walked out from the back dressing room, I was congratulated by a model who passed by.Her face was shining and a smile was plastered on her face as she engulfed me in a warm hug, "you did great out that." I smiled at her in response, "thank you very much." I said to her,"You're welcome." She replied and walked off backstage.I sighed and walked out of the hall, I shivered and goosebumps filled my skin in reaction to the cold air that was biting my skin as it whooshed passed me.I wrapped my arms around my upper part to try to keep the cold away. I was holding my bouquet in one hand and holding my trophy in the other as I walked to my car which was parked out front.I got to my car and wrapped my hand around the door's handle and moved to pull it open but another hand appeared from the side and closed it shut.My brows drew together in anger and as soon as my head came up, I had thought up some nasty things to say to the blockhead that saw it fit to prevent me from

PRISCILLA'S POVThe elevator dinged, and I followed Brent down the hallway to his home, or should I say my former home? We'd had dinner and I wanted to pick the kids up from his place since they were with Salome. After the time Brent had kept them with her while he flew to California to help me, they'd been asking to stay with her again and so, I'd set it up when Brent offered to take me to dinner to celebrate something he still hadn’t told me.I entered the house and looked around, masking my emotions. It looked the same I'd left it. Looking at every painting and decoration was bringing memories I'd love to forget back to memory. I had decorated this house with Brent back when we realized we had fallen in love with each other.“What do you think? Doesn't the house look too empty for your taste?” Brent asked, caressing my hair.I nodded. “I thought you preferred things like this, since you weren't home often.” I looked into his eyes and smiled at the look of love I'd been unaware of t

PRISCILLA'S POVI sighed and looked across my office to where Carlie was meant to be seated. since I'd entered the office that morning, the atmosphere had been tense, which meant what she'd done had been the topic of discussion before I arrived. Since Carlie was no longer trustworthy enough to leave the company to, I had to travel here even more now.Someone knocked on my door and I quickly sat up, no point in giving my employees even more to talk about. it hadn't been a secret that we were very close. "Come in."The door opened, and my new secretary brought in a file. "I compiled the list of all the people that have offered interest in working with us and partnering with us after the show."I collected the file and looked through it. "Why wasn't it sectioned? These contain agencies, celebrities as well as prospective partners. How am I meant to sort them all if they aren't sorted?" I asked her, intentionally making my voice softer. I'd yelled at two of my employees since the day had
