All Chapters of No Second Chances, Ex-husband: Chapter 201 - Chapter 210

ELIZABETH’S POV “That would be five thousand dollars a night, ma’am,” the receptionist said politely, her voice calm and professional. My brows immediately furrowed at the price she just mentioned. “Five thousand?” I repeated, my tone edged with disbelief. “Are you sure this place is actually a seven-star hotel? Because the price you’re calling seems a little too cheap for that kind of standard.” The young woman behind the counter looked startled for a second, probably unsure whether to laugh or apologize. “Cheap? Ma’am, this is our most expensive room you just booked,” she said, straightening her uniform as if to reassure me that I had indeed chosen luxury. I sighed and waved a dismissive hand. “Whatever. I just hope I don’t get low service because of these low prices,” I said, my tone clipped. “I want the best service. Breakfast by eight a.m. on the dot, no need for lunch, I always eat out. And dinner by nine p.m. sharp. Not a minute later than those times, do you understand?

ELIZABETH'S POV “I need to call my parents and show this to them. This is already becoming more creepy each time I think about it, and I get even more curious every moment that goes by. How did I not know about this person all my life?” I said as I fully lay down on the bed, letting out a frustrated sigh. The mattress sank under my weight, swallowing me into the softness as I stared up at the ceiling. “Yes, I think you should do that. Maybe they should have an explanation for this, and if they don’t, then that’s when you should panic,” my friend said through the phone, her voice echoing slightly, hinting she might be walking around. I didn’t want to keep dragging the conversation. My heart was already pounding with enough anxiety for both of us. Without another word, I ended the call. My hands immediately went to my contacts, and I found my dad’s name. I hovered over it for a second, exhaling one last time before hitting the call button. The phone rang twice. I stared at the scree

ELIZABETH'S POV“Girl, I’m really sorry to hear all this,” my friend Jessica said. I couldn’t keep all this information to myself not when it was choking me from the inside. I needed to talk to someone, and Jessica was the only one I could think of. I trusted her. She always listened, always understood.“I wish I was with you there in America. I would give you a big hug right now,” she added, her voice softening.“I was already annoyed with them before all this happened,” I began, pacing around the room. Every step felt heavy, like the weight of the entire world had landed on my shoulders. “Now they tell me this. I was adopted, Jess. And I have a freaking twin sister. She looks exactly like me. My other half, separated from me since childhood. And no one told me.”“Listen,” Jessica said, and I could feel her trying to be cautious with her words. “I mean… I’m not trying to take sides, but I would have done the same thing if I had a kid.”I stopped pacing and narrowed my eyes, even thou

LAUREN'S POVI stepped out of my car, the wind brushing against my skin as I took in the sight before me. The prison facility stood tall, cold, and unwelcoming, just as I had imagined it would be. Fences with razor wire stretched around the property, and men in uniform stood guard at several points. I had never been here before, never thought I would need to be but today was different.I sucked in a deep breath and walked toward the main entrance. Even though I tried to calm my nerves, I couldn’t help but stare at everything around me. It was brutal, bleak, and far from the life I had come to know in the past few days.Once inside, a guard led me to the warden’s office. The warden was an older man with graying hair and a stern expression. He looked up from his desk as I approached, and when I told him I’d like to see Ethan Black, his eyebrows shot up. Shock was written all over his face, almost as if he couldn’t believe I was here. I didn’t need to read his mind to know he was wonderi

LAUREN'S POV"Look, I messed up. Big time. I realize that now,” Ethan said, his voice shaky, almost trembling as if the words were scraping their way out of him. “If I knew this was how things were going to end, then I wouldn’t have even done this. I was just… really obsessed with Sophia.”“Up to the point that you threw your wife out,” I said, raising a brow, reminding him of his own humiliation.He blinked quickly, lowering his gaze. “I’m sorry. I actually am. My biggest wish right now would be to turn back the hands of time. To treat you better. To have a second chance with you. Because I know I’ve wronged you horribly, and I regret it now.”The crack in his voice was obvious. It wasn’t just shaking — his whole expression was trembling, as if the weight of everything suddenly came crashing down and he had no strength to carry it.“Are you just saying this because you’re in here,” I asked calmly, “or do you actually mean it?”I honestly didn’t care if he meant it or not. He was alre
