Semua Bab My Ex-Husband Wants Me Back After Two Years Of Divorce : Bab 221 - Bab 230

Nicole. I stared at Rowan, who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed. If it weren’t for the monitor beeping beside him, I might have thought he was just asleep. It had been an hour since I was brought to his room, and I was relieved that no one had come to ask me to leave since my mom knocked on the door thirty minutes ago. I couldn’t look away from him. I kept picturing how he had flawlessly stepped in front of me to protect me without a second thought. While I appreciated his bravery, I couldn’t wait for him to recover so I could scold him for putting himself in danger. My head felt heavy on my neck, and my eyes were drooping with sleep. I knew I couldn’t sit up for another minute; it felt like my whole system would crash if I did. I needed to rest my eyes, but I stubbornly refused because I wanted to be the first person he saw when he woke up. I had no choice but to call a nurse and politely ask her to set up another bed in Rowan’s room. With the help of Chloe and Theodore

Jackson.I ground my teeth together so hard to stop myself from wincing from the pain.My head hurt from the impact of the gun hitting me and from the look on his face, I knew more was coming. But I have to bear it; if I want to protect Zoe, my daughter then taking a hit or two shouldn’t matter.Alfred doesn’t know where Zoe is because if he had known where I kept her for her safety, he wouldn’t have followed me around. I learned from my sources that he has gotten what he wanted from Nicole—the company.The only reason he was here in front of me was because he wanted Zoe back and he wanted to shove it in my face that he had gotten what he’d wanted for years now.“Where is she? Where is my daughter?” He yelled in my face but whatever he was saying wasn’t my concern.The only thing I was concentrating on was the slight movement behind him, I hoped that whoever was there would be the one to lock his ass up.My gaze went back to his.“It seems like you aren’t getting what I’m trying to sa

Rowan.I have been nervous all morning, not because of my treatment or anything like that but because I have something important to do later on. Since I woke up from the surgery, my brain has been foggy and I couldn’t remember what happened that day so I haven’t asked about the clothes I was putting on that day.I woke up this morning with just one thing on my mind and that was to look for the clothes I was wearing before I got shot. There was something very important in there that I needed to get and I wasn’t going to relax until I got an answer.I really didn’t relax until a nurse stepped forward to tell me she kept my things.Nicole was curious to know what must have made me so bothered, but I couldn’t tell her. Telling her would ruin the surprise I have for her.She has been the only thing on my mind since I woke up and she was the only one I kept thinking of when I rushed in front of her to protect her.She has been on my mind every single time and before getting hit, the only th

Nicole. As I stared at Rowan, my mind couldn’t help but race with different scenarios. On one hand, I was shocked and excited to learn that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with me, just as I had always wanted with him. On the other hand, I felt a sense of fear.I was scared because this was another step in our relationship, I knew once I said yes then we’d officially become one—after marriage. I was scared that jumping into this one would be the same as my first marriage. All my life, all I’ve ever wanted was for someone to love and see me for who I really am. After my mother left back then—after I’d thought she had abandoned me, I thought getting married to someone I was in love with even knowing he was with someone else before me, would be the best thing in my life. I thought I would gain superpowers to change him and make him love me; at least, that's what I believed. But in the end, all I acquired was pain, heartbreak, and more heartbreak. As I stared into Rowan’s gree

Laura.“You ruined my life, Laura.” He spoke up after a long silence, and I frowned.What the hell is he talking about? How on earth did I ruin his life?“I…I don’t understand what you’re talking about,” I replied, blinking in confusion.The only thing I did was make him believe I was there for him when I wasn’t.“I loved you, Laura, and I was truly heartbroken when my family accepted that marriage. All I wanted was for you to see that I didn’t want that marriage. I did everything in my power to make sure you never shed a tear, and even when you did, I was always beside you to lend my shoulder. I always thought you loved me as I loved you, but I was wrong. Not only did you come back into my life after making it clear you wanted nothing to do with me after my marriage—after we kept seeing each other even when I was married—but you came back, thrust yourself into my life again, and I, being the foolish bastard I was, was quick to open my arms and accept you back.” He paused and took a d
