Lahat ng Kabanata ng Divorced By Mistake: Reclaiming My Ex-wife : Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

(Unknown)She's seated in her chief executive office, like a boss chic, legs crossed as she scrolls through her laptop, all her focus deeply immersed in work.She's a dazzling beauty, a true embodiment of elegance and sophistication. Her poise and aura is second to none. She's a force to reckon on as far as business goes and otherwise.And not to mention, no one dares to mess with her, especially the opposite gender, whom she has shut out of her life completely.A sudden knock on the door drags her attention off work, she looks up and almost immediately, her secretary walks in, a tablet in hand.She walks over to the her table and gives a polite nod, a curtly smile in place. "Your schedule for the day, ma'am." She retorts calmly, waiting for her orders."Get right to it, Olivia." She urges her, returning her eyes to her laptop.Olivia nods, furrowing her eyes on her tablet as she reads out. "You have a meeting with the Robinson's in an hour, review of the quarterly sales report at 10A

(Dean)Ethan comes right out from his mini bar, he's holding a bottle of wine and two glasses in hand.He pours us a drink and hands mine to me, with his eyebrows furrowed at me, he retorts. "So, you're saying you met a strange kid in the mall and he looks just like you?" He's looking at me intently, trying to gauge my reaction, he has this look, like he just doesn't get it.I take a sip, running a hand through my hair. "I just can't explain it. He's —," I trail off, struggling to put my feelings into words. "I know this doesn't make sense, Ethan, but he's just like a mini me, same eyes, same face but,"Ethan tilts his head, his eyes shining with curiosity. "But what?"I take a longer sip, an attempt to keep my voice stable. "His mom showed up, not someone I know or have ever seen," I say, trying to stifle the absurdity of my next words. "But then, I still can't shake off that strange feeling inside me, it's like the more I try to, the more it gnaws at me," I sigh.Ethan shrugs, gulpin

(Bella)Calvin pulls out a chair for me to sit down as we approached our table.He offered to take me out, which I declined at first but then he insisted and well, here we are."This is so nice," I say, as Calvin takes a seat, just across from me. My eyes moves over the fancy restaurant, taking in it's nice ambience."I'm glad you love it," Calvin replies, his tone calm, too calm. And when I turn to face him, I catch him staring at me with so much admiration shinning in his eyes, it's unsettling but yet I can't deny the warmth that comes from it."I do." I mouthed, offering a small smile, an attempt to break the tension hanging over us.He nods, maintaining his smile. "I thought I should treat you to a really nice dinner, I noticed you've been quite stressed lately," Calvin says, his smile fading a little as he furrows his eyes on me, his expression shifts to that of concern. "Is anything troubling you?" He asks, his eyes pinned on me as if studying me.I smile, seeing the genuine conc

(Bella)"Mommy, can we go to the mall later?" Javier ask as we're all seated at the dining table, having breakfast.Jasmine nods her head, like they have some sort of understanding.These two!I give Anne a quick glance before turning my gaze back to Javier. "Uhm okay but why honey?"His face breaks into a smile. "We might see the handsome mister there, mommy." He says, his eyes gleaming from what I can't quite place my hand on.I shift uncomfortably on my chair. I mean, the other day I overheard him and his sister talking about this same handsome mister.At first, it didn't really bother me. I mean that's what kids usually do, they talk about things that excites them.And I thought he'd forget eventually. After all, they're kids.But now, looking at his excited face, while he looks back at me, his expression tells me he's really hoping I'd say yes.But how can I?Not when this is starting to unsettle me in some sort of way.Before I could reply him, Anne steps in, offering a warm smil

(Ashley)"Patience Ashley. Be patient," Judy says with a glass of wine in hand, her legs crossed like an unflappable matriarch, her posture annoyingly serene.My blood is boiling with a rage I'm struggling to keep contained. So angry that this shameless bitch showed up here and is about to mess things up for me.I'm most certain she's not here solemnly for just business, and the look on her face earlier confirms it.And for that regard I doubt if patience is what we need right now. Best believe, it isn't.But Judy loves to be in charge, in control and since I need her to get to Dean, I will let her for now.Elena, who's sitting just across nods, adjusting slightly on her chair. "Pay that silly girl no mind. She's sharp-tongued, you shouldn't let anything she says get to you,"I want to believe that Bella was just rumbling but something about her confidence unnerves me, those taunting smile of hers puts me on the edge. It was like a stark mockery.The last time we talked, she was in te
