365 Days To Ruin My Ex Husband’s Life のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

Chapter 22 — You Heard Daddy… BehaveThe drive back to the main family house was filled with fire. Rue’s mother sat stiffly in the backseat, eyes burning with disbelief, lips pressed so tightly together they looked like one sharp line. Beside her, Clara was fuming, arms folded, breathing loudly like she wanted the entire world to know she was offended.“I can’t believe this,” Rue’s mother muttered, her voice cracking through the silence like thunder. “ Rue…he just threw us out. Of his house, My son !. Because of that girl? A maid?”“She probably seduced him,” Clara jumped in eagerly, she was instigating . “You know how these girls are. Acting all innocent, crying in corners, trying to win sympathy. I told you she was trouble the first time I saw her in that kitchen.”Rue’s mother shook her head violently. “A maid, Clara. My son is marrying a maid. After everything. After all I’ve built.”“He needs deliverance,” Clara said with a scoff. “What does he even see in her? And the way he spo

Chapter 24; Friday Night’s ScriptsDay 6/365 VICKYWe were barely through the door when Rue dropped his keys and said, “We need to rehearse for tomorrow.”I just nodded and followed him to the living room.He grabbed a notebook from the center table and sat on the couch. “Let’s go over the basics.”“Basics like what?”He looked up at me. “We already established how we met so let’s go over other things like ,What our first date was. How I proposed. Stuff they’ll expect us to know.I sighed and sat beside him.“Okay, So what if they ask about my first impression of you , i mean it makes sense to say you were rude “Rue smirked. “I wasn’t rude, i don’t want to go with that ““ i mean that’s what makes sense, you are rude to everybody so yeah ?” “You were clumsy then cause you are always clumsy ,” he shot back.I raised a brow. “You’re clumsy, I’m not …” He chuckled. “Alright, Let’s scrap that part , they might not ask , What about our first date? Looks like a question, Bella might ask

Chapter 26: The KissDay 7/365 VICKYWe were walking out of the restaurant, full and surprisingly calm, when I saw her.Valerie.Standing by the marble pillar, phone in hand, sunglasses halfway down her nose, she was with some friends.I froze, Why was she always showing up when i was out with Rue . “Rue,” I whispered, grabbing his arm. “Have you told Williams about us yet?”He tilted his head. “No. Not directly. But I’ve dropped hints.”My eyes narrowed. “Hints?”“You know… casual lines like ‘Your ex-wife’s hotter when she’s with me.’ Stuff like that.”“ You told him that ?” i turned to Rue spanking his arms and he laughed .“ Of course not …”I groaned. “Rue….”“What?”“Never mind. Look.”I subtly pointed with my chin.His eyes followed and landed on Valerie.He went stiff.“Interesting,” he muttered. “The pregnant mistress herself.”As we walked toward the car, I kept my head high. Rue stayed slightly ahead, distracted by his phone. I could tell he didn’t want to engage.But Vale

Chapter 28: AftermathDay 7/365VICKYI didn’t know what Rue expected after kissing me in front of Valerie like that. There was no way the energy could remain the same. I didn’t know if I was supposed to speak first or wait for him to say something else. Just this morning and last night, we had developed an informal kind of relationship. We spoke casually now, and I was starting to get used to him being around.Then he had to ruin it with that kiss.That was his way of keeping things convincing, like he said.“When are we going to be done with the silence game?” Rue asked, his eyes on the road while mine stayed fixed on the window.“I’m only quiet because I have nothing to say,” I replied, my mind spinning. I couldn’t stop wondering why we hadn’t reached the house yet. Was Rue driving slower on purpose, or did the distance feel longer because of the tension between us? Or maybe it was just the same, and I was overthinking it because I was anxious.“Okay… I’m sorry for kissing you lik

Chapter 30: Clause BDay 7/365VICKY.I started walking fast toward the door, pretending not to have heard what Rue just said. I wanted to end this right now. Who was I kidding? I was just a miserable woman with a few days left to live. Why was I even thinking about revenge? They were happy—expecting a baby. I was the one with a terminal illness.Marrying into money and power won’t fix that.Even Rue’s family didn’t seem to like me. I was just the maid to them. And to some extent, maybe even to Rue.“Vicky… wait. What is wrong with you?” Rue grabbed my arm.I struggled. “Let me go.”“Go where? Where are you going?”“I’m going home.” That was my plan—pretend I was going for a walk, then disappear. I had what I came with—my phone—and the journal I’d started keeping here. It was all tucked into my hoodie pocket. But now I’d said it out loud. Home.“What home? The one your sister now occupies with your ex-husband?” he asked, narrowing his eyes.“My parents left that house for us.”“Well,
