All Chapters of THE EX-WIFE HE COULDN’T DESTROY : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Elysia took a sip from her cup, returning her finger to where it was; under her chin as she kept her gaze locked on Calvin who was some meters away from her with a leg crossed, eyes also fixed on her. “What was your question again?” Calvin asked, leaning in with a look of curiosity in his eyes, dimming the waiting look in the eyes of Elysia, and unsurprisingly he was quick to notice the disappointment that slowly crept to her face. “I'm sorry.” Elysia sighed, pushing aside the cup that had been staring at her all along, the swivel chair followed next as she pushed it back, walking towards the huge window with her hands behind her. “I said up until the time of Emily's death did you guys fight?” She asked, curiosity laced in her tone. It was not the first time anyway; but it was obvious that the curiosity was not going to return since she had spoken as clearly as she possibly could and Calvin knew better than asking another question rather than giving a response to the question she

The woman standing in front of the door let out a sigh before replying, “I wish I could say the same, though.” She flashed a brief smile that didn't reach her eyes and took a step closer, while Nessa moved to the side to give her enough space to come into the office. The room was filled with the gentle sound of the door being closed, followed by that of approaching footsteps, but all that wasn't enough to pull Orion's attention from the files he was going through until his nose picked up a familiar scent. He was about to call her name, but instead he let his eyes wander from her head to her toes and to the bag she held. It wasn't a fancy bag that he was used to seeing her carry, which was plainly for fashion. The bag she held carried something. His eyes widened a fraction, surprise dancing in them. Seraphina tilted her head slightly to the side and dropped the bag on the table.“Why are you acting surprised to see me?” She asked, pulling out the chair opposite him to sit on. O

Elysia pushed the door open, tightening her grip on the bag with a frown, but it was replaced with a smile immediately she saw the children approaching her. She chose to leave work earlier than the normal days where she closed around eight o'clock, and sometimes, late than that. “You are early ma,” it was Malia who had followed the children down to where they ran to. “Is there any problem?” Elysia looked at them for a while, then back to Malia, then with a fake smile she responded. “No, not at all,” a shrug followed after that. “Good afternoon, mum,” the children muttered in unison, something they were taught over and over again, till it became part of them, and just as expected by anyone who was usually around them, Elysia returned the greetings. “Good afternoon.” Malia was still standing there, with her hands placed on her waist. “I don't mean to be inquisitive, ma,” Malia paused, watching Elysia's face for a while, and since it was looking good so far, she went on. “But are

Orion stood at the front of the mirror, adjusting his tie with a face lined with focus as the stare lingered for seconds, and slowly, it prolonged into minutes. He was in a black suit, one that went with his jet black hair and the trouser he wore; the same could be said about the black glossy shoe he wore. “Today eii?” He whispered to himself, looking at the brown briefcase that was placed at the far end of the bed. “Well.” Seraphina walked into the room, throwing a hand to her waist, and after that she scanned Orion from head to toe, a smile tugging at the corner of her lips. “Look who we have here,” she muttered, leaning on the door frame with her side, but Orion remained there, although for a short period before turning back to her, returning the smile. He flashed a smile, a neutral expression replacing it almost immediately. “You're back.” The smile broadened her lips, and finally she stood to her full height, revealing her 5’8 height. “Yeah, had the maids complete it thoug

“You are out already,” Damon's baritone voice could be heard over the phone and Elysia nodded, a smile broadening her lips.Orion watched from a distance, the disappointment in his eyes moving to something similar to pain. “Yes I am,’’ she responded, kicking a piece of paper that she later picked up, tossing it into a waste bin. “Thought you were going to be busy too.” The chuckle was loud enough for Elysia to hear, and a look of confusion made her features harden. “I don't understand, it's not something funny so why that?”“I don't know,” he shrugged, moving from where he was even though it was by an inch. “You know, I just came to realize that it's been a while since I heard your voice.” She narrowed her gaze on a blank space, like he was there, looking at her face to face, only for a smile to broaden her lips once more, and each time Orion saw that, it felt like a hand was squeezing his chest since he knew fully well that it was supposed to be him making her smile.
