All Chapters of Chasing back my ex-wife: Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

Leo’s POVI didn’t want to think about last night. About the call and how it almost ruined the nice moment we were having. So I buried myself in work instead.I sat in the living room, laptop open in front of me, trying to make sense of what was left of my company’s data. My fingers hovered over the keyboard, but my focus wasn’t steady.“Sir…” my IT head’s voice came through the call. “We’ve managed to recover about ten percent of the client database.”“Only ten?” I asked, my tone flat.“For now. But we’re working on the rest.”I exhaled slowly.“Keep going.”“Yes, sir.”The call ended. I flinged my phone on the couch, leaning back slightly, closing my eyes for a brief moment.Ten percent.That was what I had left. For something I built from nothing. I let out a quiet breath, opening my eyes again.Then I heard a car pulling into the compound. I didn’t need to check to know it was Kiara.But something felt off. There was another car door sound and voice.I frowned slightly and stood u

Kiara's povI didn't want to get upset. Obviously, it's just a game. So I had to excuse myself and pretend like I got a call. I could feel Leo's gaze on me as I walked away.And then I got a real call from Alex. “Are you at your office or your home?” he asked immediately.“I'm at home. Is there any problem?”“When did you start asking me such questions?” he replied dryly.Before I could say anything, I heard my doorbell. “Open the door,” he added. “I was already close to your house when I called.”I frowned slightly, lowering my phone.Before I could get to the living room, Leo had already opened the door. I stopped. Just stood there watching. The atmosphere shifted instantly. These two men stare aggressively at each other.It had been three weeks since Leo had been staying with me and I had hoped that he must have bounced back by now. Three weeks of rebuilding, working, and trying to keep things in check.And this? This was exactly what I had been trying to avoid.I didn’t want Sop

Kiara’s POVIt had been a month since the execution of Mr. Jones’ project, and my body was already protesting that I needed a break. A real one at that.And what better way to give myself that than a vacation?Yes. That was exactly what I needed.At least fourteen days away from everything—work, pressure, expectations.And I wasn’t leaving my baby behind.Thank God Sophia was on holiday. No school, no interruptions. Just the two of us.My phone rang.Alex.I stared at the screen for a second before answering.“Hey, Alex.”“Hey, Kiara,” his voice came through, softer than usual. “It’s been a while. Are you still mad at me for what happened weeks ago at your place?”I scoffed lightly. “No, not at all. I’ve just been busy with work.”“Work, huh? So busy you forgot how to check up on me or gist me like you used to?”I sighed, leaning back on the couch. “Honestly, I was really occupied with that Mr. Jones project I told you about.”“Are you still on it?”“No. I finished a month ago.”“A mo

Kiara’s POVThe vacation was supposed to be peaceful, that was the whole point.No work, no pressure, no Leo, no Alex.Just I and Sophia.The first seven days went exactly like that. So perfect.We woke up on the eighth morning, had breakfast by the balcony, and watched the ocean stretch endlessly. It was such a beautiful view.Sophia had already made friends with the hotel staff and somehow convinced one of them to give her extra pancakes every morning.“Because I’m cute,” she told me very confidently.I didn’t argue. I just chuckled.By the third day, I decided to step out alone. Sophia was downstairs with the kids’ activity group, supervised and happy.For the first time in weeks, I had time for myself. Just me.I walked into a minimalistic and elegant boutique store just a few blocks from the hotel.The kind of place where everything looked simple but cost a fortune.I picked up a dress, running my fingers over the soft, light fabric.“So you have this taste.” My hand froze.That

Leo’s povThe door sound echoed through the house. I stood there, still, my chest rising and falling slowly as Alex’s car sped off outside.Kiara didn’t move. She just stood there, staring at the door like she was still processing everything that had just happened. Her shoulders were tense, her fingers slightly curled at her sides.For a moment, neither of us said anything.Heavy silence filled the room. Then I finally took a step toward her.“I know you are mad at me right now” I started, my voice lower than usual. “And I’m sorry.”She didn’t turn immediately.“Leo please…” she said softly, like she didn’t even have the strength to argue.But I wasn’t backing down this time. Not like before. I moved closer, stopping just a few steps behind her.“Kiara, I’m so sorry for hurting you in the past,” I said, my voice steady but low. “I know you still love me… and trust me, I still do too.”She turned slowly this time. Her eyes met mine, and for a second, everything else faded.There was s
