Lahat ng Kabanata ng Revenge After Rebirth: No Longer Yours, Ex!: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

Julia’s POVAlex was furious. His eyes, cold and sharp, glinted with the kind of rage that only comes from having one’s ego bruised. The tendons on his neck tightened, and his jaw clenched so hard I could almost hear his teeth grinding. His nostrils flared slightly as he glared at me, struggling to comprehend how I had the audacity to throw a cake at him. A bead of icing slid down his pristine suit jacket and his hands curled into fists at his sides. The anger in his expression burned with one question: How dare she?But I dared, and I didn’t regret it.Before Alex could spit out whatever venomous words he had brewing, my stepmother, Scarlett’s fingers latched onto my arm, dragging me out of the hall. Her grip was firm, desperate. I could see the alarm in her eyes as she led me down a quiet corridor, away from the horrified murmurs of the gathered guests.“Are you out of your mind?” she hissed, her voice trembling with barely contained panic. “Do you have any idea what you’ve done?”I

Julia’s POV The next day, I was woken up by my mobile phone vibrating relentlessly. Alex’s name lit up the screen. He’d called a dozen times already, and a new one buzzed before I could even process the count. I didn’t expect him to be so persistent. In my previous life, he’d hated me, loathed me even. Now he couldn’t seem to leave me alone. I let the phone ring out, the shrill sound piercing the morning silence. I didn’t answer, not because I was afraid, but because I didn’t want to hear any pathetic words from him. Shortly, there was a message notification. I checked the messages he’d sent. “You dare ignore my calls?” I read. I blocked his number without hesitation. He didn’t deserve another second of my time. As I set my phone down. In my previous life, I’d wasted so much energy trying to make him love me, trying to fix what was irreparably broken. Not this time. This time, I’d put myself first. Shortly after I blocked Alex’s number and sank back into the peace of my thoughts

Julia’s POVAt this Entrepreneurs Summit, startup teams will showcase their innovative achievements, aiming to attract interested investors to buy out their projects. The investor who offers the highest bid will be able to reach a cooperation agreement with the entrepreneurs. The entire process operates like an auction, each proposal is scrutinized, debated, and ultimately sold to the highest bidder. For my company, this event represents not only a chance to secure critical funding but also an opportunity to establish long-term partnerships that could shape the future of our enterprise.My gaze were still focused on the document in my hands, the neatly printed schedule of the summit was boldly written as I read through. The stakes were higher than ever, and I needed a solid plan.“Miss,” Emily’s voice broke through my thoughts. “Scarlett has already refused the invitation to this summit… as per Alex’s orders. He instructed me to keep the document aside because he won’t be attending to

Julia’s POVI was shocked by Lucas’s sudden intimacy, the way he acted in front of everyone towards me that made them speechless as if he had every right to hold me that way I could practically feel the weight of countless gazes, stunned silence washing over as we continued to walk while there were flashes of light coming from countless shots from different camera men. Just as I was about to break free, Lucas leaned down slightly, his lips close to my ear. “With such a great opportunity, aren’t you going to take advantage of me?” His voice was smooth, teasing, and entirely. Then came that smirk. I shot him an exasperated look and smiled at his words. On one hand, I thought he was being the epitome of narcissism, acting as though I should be grateful for his attention. But on the other… Well, he had a point. Lucas Lynwood was breathtakingly handsome, far more than Alex had ever been. Sharp features, intense eyes, an aura of quiet dominance that made everyone in the room acknowledge hi

Julia’s POVThat night, I asked Lucas to drop me off at the company.“I still have some things to take care of before going home.” I said and he nodded without hesitation. He dropped me off and after some hours, I was done, about to head out. The moment I stepped out of the company doors, the sight of a sleek, black car parked near the entrance gate made me wonder if Alex was here. It was his car and his car plate number convinced me more that it was truly him. Why was he here?At the sight of it, my feet slowed instinctively, my fingers tightening around the strap of my purse as my eyes were darting around to catch a glimpse of him. Shortly, the driver’s side door opened, and Alex stepped out. His expression was a mixture of anger and something else, something possessive. He strode toward me, his towering body casting a shadow over me as I tried to walk pass him.“Julia,” he said, his voice sharp and commanding. “You really didn’t waste any time, did you?”I halted with a frown, my
