All Chapters of Ex-Husband's Regret: The Triplet’s Revenge : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

“Simon?” Anna called as she stepped into the house, walking straight to the kitchen to put the bouquet of flowers she had bought on the table. “Simon?” Anna called again, but the same silence met her in response. The well-lit Victorian house sat silent, the only sound being the ticking of the clock from the living room. "Maybe he is running late; it's that time of the year, and he has a lot to do," Anna muttered to herself as she checked the watch on her wrist. It was the end of the year; the cold winter days were getting shorter, and Simon's workload always seemed to increase during this time, despite Paul Parker, his uncle's offer of help, which he always turns down. Anna shook her head, not wanting to think about the drama between them, as she instead poured herself a cup of wine and waited for him to return. As she lifted the glass to her lips, she heard the doorknob turning. "Simon," Anna breathed as she stood up abruptly. The smile that lit her face coul

"Huh, I think you should go now, Anna," John interrupted, glaring at Nancy as he stepped in front of her. "What did you just say?" Anna asked. "Nothing you need to hear again, and by the way you should go visit your mother," Nancy snorted. Anna turned and, without saying a word, stepped out the door. She walked over to the car, got in, and sighed deeply. Lily noticed the concerned look on her face and asked, "Are you okay?" "I'm worried about my mom," Anna responded. "Do you want to go straight to the hospital now?" Lily asked. "No, let's go home, and then we can head there once I'm packed," Anna replied. "Okay," Lily responded as she drove out of the driveway and headed straight to Anna's house. "What do you want to do now?" Lily asked. Anna stepped out of the car when they got to the house; she walked straight up to her room, packed a bag, and came back downstairs. "Here, let me help you with that," Lily said, taking the bag from her. They were

The airport was chaotic, a usual atmosphere in New Jersey around this time of the year. It was spring break with a lot of persons going on vacation. "It's been how long? Five years, right? How does it feel to be back?" Natasha asked Anna as they walked to the exit of the airport. Natasha Roberts had met Anna for the first time three years ago at the Fisher telecoms System, where Anna had come to put them through a cybersecurity course. The two had hit it off from there, fast becoming friends. On Anna's part, Natasha's personality reminded her of Lily. "I don't know how I feel, Nat; honestly, I don't think I want to feel anything for this place," Anna replied. "I understand that feeling. I don't know the whole story, but I got your back anytime," Natasha said with a warm smile. Anna smiled and replied, "Thanks, Nat." Barely five minutes after they got to the exit, Clayton appeared with a trolley in tow. All their bags were stacked on each other. "Okay, Billy, you go

In the conference room, Simon walked over to his designated seat, a scowl on his face. "You look like someone just stoned you." William Blake, his personal assistant, said, noticing the awkward glances from those who walked in after Simon. "How long is this supposed to take?" Simon grunted, picking up his phone. "Uhm, about four hours. You already knew that. What’s wrong? Or rather, did something happen?" William asked. "It's of no significance," Simon muttered. "But it seems to bother you, so I wouldn’t call it significant," William stated. "Drop it, okay?" Simon shot him a sharp look, which cut the conversation short. The event host took to the stage, beaming with a smile as she said, "Good day, everyone. Thank you all for being here. It is such an honor to welcome such a distinguished guest." After a brief recognition of key organizations and an introduction of the judges, the host’s tone shifted. "And now, I have an exciting announcement. We have the honor of presenting a

"Hhngh!" Anna yelped as her back hit the door. The room was dark and small; a tall, looming figure stood before her, forcing her to lift her head to see who it was. For a moment, that night flashed before Anna's face as she felt the taste of the sea in her mouth. Instinctively, Anna closed her eyes, trying to block out the thought. "What the h*ll do you think you are doing?" Anna's eyes snapped open at the voice, all her fear turning into anger as she recognized it. She looked up, the sound of their heavy breathing echoing in the tense silence between them as she tried to see his face in the dimly lit room. "What the h*ll do you think you are doing?" She shouted at him. "You should answer me first," Simon replied, his voice ice cold, as he stood very close to her. "If you weren't trying to look so pissed, I'd say you know the answer to that," Anna responded. She pulled herself away from the door, but Simon refused to step back, and Anna refused to give him the satisfaction of
