Alle Kapitel von Chasing back my ex-wife: Kapitel 191 – Kapitel 200

Leo’s povI woke up to laughter. Real laughter.The kind that fills a room naturally without effort. For a second, I just stayed there listening to it from upstairs.Sophia was downstairs arguing about pancakes again. Kiara was laughing at something she said.I rubbed a hand over my face before getting out of bed slowly.The past few weeks had felt different.Like life had finally stopped fighting us for one damn minute.When I walked downstairs, Sophia was standing on a kitchen stool dramatically flipping pancakes while Kiara leaned against the counter holding coffee.“You’re letting her cook?” I asked immediately.Kiara looked toward me innocently.“She insisted.”“She almost burned butter five minutes ago,” I replied.“That’s not true,” Sophia argued loudly.Smoke literally rose from the pan behind her.I stared at it. Then at her.She blinked once. “Okay maybe a little.”Kiara burst into laughter.I walked toward them slowly before kissing Kiara’s cheek softly.“Morning.”“Morning

Leo’s pov“You’ve checked your phone multiple times now.”I looked up from the screen immediately.Alex sat across from me in the living room looking entirely too amused with himself.“I’m working.”“You’re spiraling.”“I’m literally answering emails.”“You opened the same email three times.”I stared at him flatly.“I've been watching you, so no need to pretend.”Alex laughed under his breath before taking another sip of whiskey.I slightly adjusted my shirt, before finally setting my phone down.“You are such a handful”“Unfortunately, I'm here already.” He smirked faintly.Then his expression shifted slightly more serious. “Are you nervous?”I leaned back slowly against the chair and exhaled slowly.“A little.”Alex blinked once dramatically. “Oh wow.”“Relax.”“No no,” he leaned forward slightly. “I just never thought I’d see the day Leo Williams admitted emotional vulnerability voluntarily.”I rolled my eyes. “You’re enjoying this too much.”“Very much.”I shook my head faintly

Kiara’s povThe music echoed softly through the church as the doors slowly opened in front of me.And suddenly, every single person stood.My breath caught instantly.Candles flickered across the massive room. White roses lined the aisle beautifully beneath the golden lights hanging from above. Everything looked too beautiful. Too perfect.Sophia walked carefully ahead of me in her flower-girl dress, tiny hands holding the basket while she sprinkled white petals across the aisle.The entire congregation melted watching her.I could hear soft laughter. Sniffles. Whispers.But I barely focused on any of it. Because my eyes found Leo immediately, standing at the altar beside Alex. Waiting for me.My chest tightened painfully.He looked breathtaking in black. But it wasn’t even the suit. It was his face.The way he looked at me like nothing else inside the church existed. Like after everything… I was still the center of his entire world.Emotion burned hard inside my throat.And suddenly

Kiara's povThe moment the car door slammed shut behind me, I broke down, crying.Not the dignified tears I had somehow managed to hold together inside the church. This is the kind that makes breathing feels impossible.I pressed both hands against my face as tears kept flowing down my cheeks. Outside, reporters were still shouting.I could hear them through the tinted windows."Kiara!""What happened inside?""Did you leave Leo Williams at the altar?""Are you ending the relationship?"Camera flashes exploded endlessly outside. Security struggled to keep them back.But none of it sounded real anymore. Everything felt distant, like I was underwater.The wedding dress, the veil, the makeup and even the flowers, all of it suddenly felt too heavy on me.I felt sick.The driver quietly closed the privacy divider without saying a word. Giving me space and dignity to fall apart.And I was really falling apart.Because the worst part wasn't leaving Leo.The worst part was that I still loved

Kiara's povThree Months LaterWe went to a park. Sophia had already spotted the swings before we even reached the playground."Mummy, hurry up!"I laughed as she took off ahead of me.Around us, a few parents watched their children from nearby benches while others pushed strollers along the walking path. The park wasn't crowded, but it was alive and peaceful.For once, nobody was following us.No security alarms. No reporters. No fear.Just an ordinary afternoon with my daughter. For so long, my life has been chaotic.But now, I spent most mornings answering emails, meeting clients, and arguing with Sophia about random things.That felt like peace.Sophia reached the swings first and immediately turned around."Mummy!""I'm coming."She grinned triumphantly. "You lost.""I wasn't racing you.""That's because you knew I'd win."I rolled my eyes. The confidence in this child should honestly be studied.I helped her onto the swing before stepping back."Ready?""Push me high!""Not too
