All Chapters of Bye Dear Ex-husband But It's Not Over Yet : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Lyra's POV “This is definitely going to work just the way I want it!” A whisper in my head told me.“I hope your ex-wife won't hurt me whatsoever?” Pearl uttered as her gaze travelled.“Not at all she's not going to waste time. But if you're delaying, I will check up on you,” he said.“Not even a peck for me,” She said and before he planted that peck on her forehead, he looked at me intensely.Then she took the lead as we climbed the stairs upstairs. Then, we swung the door open, and we strolled in, but there was still a deafening silence between us.As planned I went straight to the business that brought me. The moment I bent to open the down drawer. Her voice echoed in my ears and startled me. “Lyra! What the heck are you up to? What's even your problem?!”“What's the meaning of that nonsense you spilt out there, Lyra? Where did you get that information from in the first place?” Pearl asked me numerous questions at the same time.Meanwhile, I laughed softly as I pretended like she

Lyra's POV I swallowed hard as I tried not to reveal my anger and the fueling rage in me was intensifying. “Ooh, he did that? He divorced his wife just to be with my step sister. Which normal being in his right senses will do that to a woman he has exchanged vows with?” I threw a question at him like stones.“It's something else, Miss Jenkins. Some men don't deserve good women, and I'm sure he's one of them because Pearl is definitely not any better than his ex-wife. Even though I don't know her, I know Pearl pretty well. Money is her love language and the moment that varnishes, she's also gone. That's the reason she's threatening her husband for a divorce currently,” Marc revealed as I still stood in front of the window.Hmm!Everything is glaring at me and I don't need to spill much anymore to Zane. When did this interview take place without my notice?He introduced her as his wife-to-be at one of his recent interviews. How didn't I get this headline all this while?I mean, what ki

Caleb's POV“I hope you have witnessed it yourself now right? It wasn't necessary to allow her into this house. What the heck is even wrong with you? Such disrespect from a pauper like her? Hell no!” my mom barked as I crawled from the stairs with my mind racing dangerously.I can't seem to understand my ex-wife's relationship with Pearl, but it seems they're familiar with each other. Probably, I'm not the only one in the dark and the fears in Pearl's eyes when I barged in confirm everything to me.After all, I'm not hallucinating or being crazy. As my mind was a crazy mixture of thoughts, I felt a hand resting on my hunched shoulders, and chills went down my spine.“Baby,” she muttered under her breath and planted a kiss on my neck.“Are you okay? I mean, you seemed disorganised,” she added, and I definitely understood what she was referring to.“I am? Yeah…I mean, I'm great,” my voice stuttered, and I didn't know why.“Really?” She asked and her brows furrowed slightly as I rotated

Caleb's POV I cleared my throat and chills went down my spine. “I…Derrick?” I stammered in bewilderment and my throat suddenly felt dry.He pulled the chair Pearl was seated on and relaxed himself. “Calm down, you don't have to be confused at this point. Huh?” His voice was so cool like nothing was freaking bothering him but I know it's not so.I bit my lower lip as I tried to maintain a calm composure. “What do you want here? Are you not supposed to be at the gate? Or do you want me to report you to the manager of this restaurant?” I threw numerous questions at him at the same time and a warning whisper rang in my head as I stared at his nonchalant face.For a moment I wonder if this is the Derrick I've always known all my life. The calm, sober and fearful one. It doesn't definitely look like it as I perceived his relaxed cheeks.“Let's say…,” he paused and pulled my chin up confidently without batting an eyelid. “It's not your fucking business Caleb Sawyer! You're here to eat and n

Lyra's POV “You…but Marc,” she stammered and her eyes frantically went back and forth on us.“Yeah, I didn't tell her about it because I wanted to surprise the both of you,” Marc replied eagerly and upon all indications, they had been in touch with each other.“Miss Jenkins, I thought it wise to schedule a meeting with you and grandma. Since you returned you have not asked about her and know why. But…”I dropped my handbag on the couch near her and I interrupted him vehemently. “Who the hell gave you that advice? Wait…oh God!” My voice cracked and I ran my hand through my long hair.“What even makes you think that I want to see this? This one? She's not my grandma anymore and will never be!” My voice was almost cold.I swallowed the lump that rose in my throat, and I stared at them with my eyes full of fury while she lowered her gaze to the floor.She picked up her support crutch, and tried to sit upright. I couldn't imagine that just in less than five years of being away she's now t
