Lahat ng Kabanata ng Dear Ex-husband, I Have Returned! : Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

~Avery~Ah! My head hurt so much. I lazily scanned my surroundings which appeared to be a basement to a building. I tried to move but suddenly realized that I was strapped to a chair. I couldn't scream either because a tape was on my lips.Realizing that I've just been kidnapped, panic struck within me. Different thoughts ran through my mind on who could be responsible and why? But it all draws down to one answer.I tried moving my wrists against each other as they were tied behind the chair I occupied. This position wasn't favorable to my wrist or feet strapped to the chair.I rocked back and forth on the wooden chair to make some screech on the ground, that way it would attract whoever kidnapped me.Not too long, I heard a firm and slow footstep approaching me. The nearer the sounds drew closer to me the more I was scared for my life. What if they kill me? There wasn't any sane thoughts left in my head anymore.A screeching sound against the ground accompanied the footstep approach

~Avery~My head fell on the steering wheel processing everything that happened in that basement minutes ago. Scott knows about Allison and I've got this strange feeling that he'll be more persistent than he was before.So this was the truth Scott had kept away from me all these years. I was finally able to connect the few dots together. I broke down into tears. I allowed the salty water flow down freely. Everything I had always pictured about Scott was wrong. He was still the same person I loved in the past.“You could have said something to me” I choked out amidst tears.I lost count of how long I've been in that position bawling my lungs and eyes out until a knock fell on the windshield. Jerking up, I wiped my tears away with the back of my palm before I raised my head up. The figure was a bit blurry but I was able to make out Stephen's figure.It was already dark outside, Stephen's worried face only made me anxious and uncertain about the future. Wiping every single tear stain so

~Scott~For more than five years I've been known as the infidel husband who couldn't keep his lower part in check. Everyone saw me as the villain most especially Avery who still thought that I really cheated on her with Ella.But the truth was that Ella was my older brother's widow and also my ex-girlfriend. We dated for two years during highschool before she broke up with me. A week after our split up, she hooked up with greg.My brother Gregory was known for his careless lifestyle and unfortunately for him, he was murdered. Perhaps he knew something or saw something that he shouldn't have seen or heard. I've tried my very best to know who the killer was but it led to a dead end. If the killer was still alive, Ella and her baby would never be safe. Whoever killed Gregory was coming for Ella and her unborn baby as per her words and I couldn't sit back and watch my sister-in-law and her baby die just like my brother. And till date, I have never witnessed an attack on either Ella or

Scott~ Hating Stephen was one thing but accepting to meet up with him was another thing entirely, we never liked each other and I was very certain that it would remain that way for as long as possible. It was best if we talked things out right now and also set some boundaries.I couldn’t get over the fact that Avery had agreed to marry the joker himself. I looked around the open air cafe in search of him. I saw him sitting a few distance away from the few people around. He was deeply engrossed in his phone or he was just trying to make me feel small by pretending to not see me.Ridiculous!I took my time to walk up to the table he reserved. I suddenly had the urge to walk up to that table and flip it over. No one gets to steal my woman away from me.I pulled out one of the chairs, dragging it on the ground purposely to make my presence known even though he knew that I was around.Unbuttoning my suit, I took a seat and picked up one of the menus lying on the table. I brought it over

~Avery~The drive to the address the unknown man sent to me was a six minutes drive from my office. I peered out of the glass staring at the old and abandoned looking building. I guess this was the place. The grass shrubs looked totally unattended to giving it an eery looking vibe.I desperately wanted to know the bastard who was brave enough to lay a finger on my daughter. The second I get to meet him, I'll grace him with a tight slap. The only enemy I could think of right now was Scott. I hated Scott for what he did or what I thought he did but I knew he couldn’t do such a thing especially when he already found out that Allison was his daughter.Inhaling a deep breath, I unfastened my seatbelt and attempted to push the door open when my phone buzzed loudly. I picked it out of my purse and scrolled through the new text message.‘Leave your phone and purse in the car. You have three minutes to get in’My anger only surged. There was a very high chance that I might not make it out ali
