All Chapters of The CEO's Ex-wife Return As A Billionaire Heiress : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Alex I felt like strangling Nathaniel, who was still holding Emily even when he saw me, as if she belonged to him. The sight of his arms wrapped around her made my blood boil with a rage I hadn't felt in years. "What is going on here?" I shouted with fury as I stepped in and banged the door behind me, the sound reverberating through the office like thunder. "I'm sorry, ma'am, I... tried to stop him, but he forced his way in," the secretary said to Emily, her voice filled with panic as she wrung her hands nervously. I turned and glared at her, making her shiver in fear as she quickly averted her gaze and looked down at the floor. Good. At least someone here had the sense to be afraid of what I was capable of. "It's fine. You can go," Emily said to the secretary as she ran a hand through her hair in frustration before dismissing her with a wave that barely concealed her trembling fingers. The secretary bowed and hurriedly left the room, practically stumbling over herself to esc

EmilyMy hands wouldn’t stop trembling for long after Alex stormed out of my office. His voice, his audacity, his piercing eyes, they lingered in the air like poison.How dare he?After everything he did to me. After sending me away like I was nothing… like I was trash. He never even tried to find out the truth. He never gave me the chance to explain. And now, he has the nerve to come back into my life and demand answers?My chest rose and fell with heavy breaths, rage boiling inside me. “God,” I muttered under my breath, pacing across the room, my heels clicking sharply against the floor. “Some men are so stupid. They think they can eat their cake and still have it. Not this time. I will show Alex I am not the same Emily he used to know. That naive woman is gone.”But the problem was… I knew Alex. He wouldn’t stop. Not until he dug up the truth. And that terrified me more than I wanted to admit.I had to do something. And fast.“Emily,” Nathaniel’s voice cut through my storm of thou

Chapter 75Emily"Fuck!" I cursed under my breath as I woke up and saw the time on my bedside clock. 8:30 AM. I was supposed to be at the office by 9:00 for the board meeting. How could I have overslept?This was not how I wanted to start my day. I jumped out of bed and rushed to the bathroom, my heart racing. I quickly brushed my teeth, took my bath and threw on the first business suit I could find. My hands were shaking as I tried to zip up my skirt.I ran downstairs, my heels clicking loudly on the marble floor. All my staff were already waiting, and they greeted me with respectful bows."Good morning, ma'am," they said together.I nodded quickly and hurried toward the dining room, expecting to see my children already eating breakfast. But when I got there, the table was empty. No Lucas, no Lily. Just empty plates and cold food."Where are my children?" I asked Maria, our head housekeeper."They are still in their rooms, ma'am," Maria replied, looking a little confused. "They ha

VanessaI hummed happily as I stood in front of my bedroom mirror, carefully applying my lipstick as my mind went to Phil and Lucas.Those little brats thought they were so smart, but they had no idea who they were dealing with. Soon, they would learn that I am much smarter than them.My phone started ringing, interrupting my thoughts. I glanced at the caller ID and smiled when I saw it was from Nurse Natasha at the hospital. Perfect timing."Hello, ma'am," Natasha's voice came through the phone. "Your work is done. When am I expecting my balance?""Right away," I said, my smile growing wider. "I will transfer the money to your account within the hour.""Thank you, ma'am," she said before hanging up.I set my phone down and let out a long, satisfied sigh. Finally, it is done. Now those brats would discover that Alex was their father, but I would still be Phil's legal mother. That way, Alex would have no reason to leave me. He would have to stay to be close to his precious son.This ph

AlexHow dare she show her face in my office after everything she has done? How could a mother be poisoning her own child?Gosh!I was still fuming with anger as I watched the guards drag Vanessa out of my office.God, I wouldn't have known she was cruel to my son if the nurses hadn't called me this morning.I could still hear the nurse's trembling voice in my head as I sat in my office, trying to process what she had told me earlier."Mr. Thompson, I can't do this anymore," she had whispered into the phone. "My conscience won't let me sleep. Mrs. Thompson... paid me to give her poison. She's been giving him small doses for months, trying to make it look like he is getting sick naturally. She also made me alter his medical results to show that his suffering from bone marrow..." "What did you just say?" My blood had turned to ice as I cut her off."I'm so sorry, sir. She threatened to ruin my career if I didn't help her. But I can't be part of murdering a child anymore. I have the m
