Semua Bab Dear Ex-husband, I Have Returned! : Bab 61 - Bab 70

I've not been stable with updates for this book because I lost the zeal to write it since no one is showing interest in it. I'm trying to round it up soon and release new books if possible. For now, all the best. 💙💫

~Unknown~The dimly lit bar made it difficult for me to see the expression the lady sitting before me had on. She brought the glass of whiskey to her lips but paused when she noticed my stare. "You failed twice. And now there's a bounty for your arrest." A cold smirk flashed on her lips for a second "I'm so much tempted to turn you in by myself!" Her voice was sharp and fierce at the end of her sentence. A cold sweat broke out on my forehead and it rolled down my face. The smell of alcohol lingered in the hair coupled with the smell of sweat from the people dancing to the loud music blasting through the speakers. My life was going well before I met her and started doing her heinous tasks. Now I regret ever accepting money from her. "I tried. They are just too lucky-"There's no such thing as luck! You failed! Stop making goddamned excuses!" Her sharp voice managed to reach my ears clearly despite the loud music playing. My head bowed slightly in disappointment. "I'll launch ano

~Stella~My eyes opened slowly as the sunlight crept in and fell on my face. A smile appeared on my lips in the bright room. I tried to turn but felt something heavy around my waist. My eyes went wide like saucers recalling every tiny detail from last night, I dropped my gaze to the arm holding my waist possessively like I belonged to him alone. It was Stephen.It wasn't a damn dream. It happened! I facepalm myself thinking of what Stephen might do or say when he realizes that he spent all night with me. The actions from last night shamelessly started flooding back in and I was left blushing hard. I bit my bottom lip to control myself from screaming out.I didn't regret it. It was indeed the best night of my life. The only problem I had was how he would react to this. I raised his arm slowly taking it away from my waist and gently crept out of the bed.I winced feeling the throbbing pain in-between my legs. Down there felt sour and it stings slightly. I lost count of how many times

~Stephen~She wasn't taking my calls. None of the sisters wanted to speak to me. I'm caught up in the middle feeling so confused about everything. In just one day, I lost everything. And the most painful part was that I couldn't fix it no matter how hard I tried to do so. With Stella nowhere to be found, it made matters worse. I have a lot of questions for her. A lot of why's.Only her could give me a detailed explanation of what happened last night. I recalled being at the bar and this morning, I'm naked under the sheets. "Any luck in finding her whereabouts?" I questioned one of my men over the phone. We've been searching for Stella for close to two hours and not a single thing has been heard from her at all. "She checked in at a hotel earlier today but she's gone" My eyes shut tightly. Was she just embarrassed to see me or was it guilt eating her up? I don't even know what to think in a situation like this. "Try to find out where she is at the moment. She couldn't have gone

~Avery~As promised, Scott sent the divorce papers to me through his lawyer the very next morning. The lawyer promised to come pick up the papers in two hours and my signature must be present on it. This was the fourth time I'm rechecking every clause just in case he left a clue for me like last time but I found nothing. His signature was already there and my real name was present too. All that remained was for me to sign and everything we both shared in the past will be over for good. My pen felt so heavy to lift up over the papers. I wanted to cry, scream and most probably curl myself up into a ball and wail even louder. The lawyer will be here anytime soon and these papers have to be signed before he gets here. Finally, I lifted my pen over each paper to put an end to everything. Mum was by my side to scoop me into her arms the second I started crying. Everything was gone, I came to the country with happiness and I'm gonna leave broken and dejected. This wasn't what I had pl
