Semua Bab The CEO's Ex-wife Return As A Billionaire Heiress : Bab 61 - Bab 70

Vanessa I walked quietly down the hall, still savoring the thought of Phil sipping that tea, when I noticed light seeping out from Alex’s study room. Strange, he usually kept it dim at this hour.I pushed the door open softly, and what I saw froze me where I stood.Alex was sitting at his desk, his head bent forward, completely lost in thought. The glow of his laptop screen illuminated his face, and my breath caught when I saw Emily’s picture on his laptop.Not one. Not two. Several.He was scrolling through them with a look I had never seen in his eyes when he looked at me. Tender. Soft. Longing.My hands trembled, my knees weakened. My heart pounded so hard I thought I might faint. Does he still have Emily’s pictures? After all these years? After marrying me?I felt heat rise in my chest, burning through me like fire. I couldn’t hold it in anymore.I slammed the door shut loudly, making him jolt. His eyes snapped up, but instead of guilt, he looked irritated as if I had interrupt

EmilyMy heart pounded so violently in my chest I thought it might burst. I held Lucas and Lily’s hands tightly as we rushed out of the mall. Their little feet struggled to keep up, and I could already see the curiosity burning in their innocent eyes. I knew they wanted answers, but this wasn’t the time.“Mommy, what is wrong?” Lily asked, her voice filled with curiosity but I couldn’t answer, not now.The guards hurried ahead, opening the car door for us. I pushed them inside quickly, climbing in after them, my hands trembling as I tried to steady my breath.God, this… this was my greatest fear. I always knew this day would come, but I never imagined it would be this soon or this brutal.Just hearing his shocked voice when he saw my children inside that mall had ripped open wounds I thought I’d stitched closed years ago. I'm sure he knew the children were his and he wouldn’t stop now. I knew him too well. Once Alex suspected something, he would tear the world apart to uncover the

Emily I walked slowly toward the parking lot after breakfast, my heels clicking softly against the pavement. The morning air felt heavy, pressing down on me like the weight of yesterday’s encounter. Lucas’s concerned eyes and Lily’s quiet questions still echoed in my head, but I brushed them aside with a weak smile. I couldn’t let them see me fall apart. Not yet.The driver opened the car door and bowed slightly. I forced a nod, sliding into the backseat. The ride to the office blurred by in silence. My phone, tucked deep in my bag, remained off. I am not ready to take any calls now.When we arrived, I stepped out and straightened my jacket, trying to wear confidence like armor. The employees at the entrance greeted me with polite bows and bright smiles. I returned a nod, but inside, I was miles away.Without wasting time, I walked straight to the conference room. The moment I entered, chatter hushed and all eyes turned toward me. I forced a small smile and took my seat at the head

VanessaI pulled the hood of my jacket lower, slipping into the hospital quietly like a thief, trying not to draw any attention. My heart was beating fast, each step echoing louder than it should.God, why am I even here?Well, I am here because Natasha, my friend who is a nurse in this hospital, called me this morning and said she saw Phil here. I was surprised because Phil didn't tell me he was leaving the house, and that was strange, but then she said he wasn't alone and that made me more confused.According to her, he was with a boy who looked exactly like him.I almost laughed when she said it. Who else could look like Phil except… his other twin? Emily’s son.But I knew that would never happen. It's impossible because, from my sources, Emily’s children were far away in Singapore, and there is no way they would ever cross paths. Natasha must have been mistaken. Yet, the certainty in her voice shook me so badly that I couldn’t sit still. So, I decided to come see for myself.No

VanessaI didn’t bother to knock again; I shoved the door open, fury burning through me.“Phil!” I snapped, but then froze when I saw him standing by the window, phone still in hand.He turned casually, like he had been expecting me.“Who were you calling, Phil?” I demanded, my voice trembling with suspicion.A small, tired smile tugged at his lips. He ran a hand lazily through his hair and said, almost mockingly, “My friend or do I say, my brother?"I blinked in shock. “What nonsense are you talking about? You don’t have any brothers; I gave birth to only you!”His smile deepened into something sharp, cutting. He slipped his free hand into his pocket and leaned back like a king on his throne. “That’s because you are not my mother. And I am not Phil.”For a moment, I couldn’t breathe. His words crashed into me like thunder.“What rubbish are you saying?” I hissed.He tilted his head, eyes cold, calm, merciless. “My name is Lucas. And the person I was speaking to… was your son, Phil.”
