Semua Bab Best Revenge: Don't Beg for Mercy, Ex-husband: Bab 151 - Bab 160

“Kiara.”She expected to hear his voice, to open her eyes to the sight of him still taking her to the hospital. However, Kiara opened her eyes in an unfamiliar place at first because it looked nothing like a hospital.But the clearer her vision, the more familiar it became. She was back in the Villa. Back inside their bedroom. “Kiara, it’s me.” Greg’s voice reached her ears and she looked sideways to find him sitting beside her. “You’re finally awake.”What happened? It was as if Kiara had never left. As if everything that happened to her was a dream; Being taken to the Cops’ Department and getting tortured mercilessly before Killian arrived to save her. Everything felt like a dream. “I was so scared.” Greg pulled her into his arms, hugging her tightly like his life depended on it. “I’m so sorry, Kiara. If I knew they were going to do this to you, I wouldn’t have allowed them to take you away.”But it wasn’t a dream. Her bruises were real. The wound on her forehead was real, and

Killian stopped pacing, his eyes darting to her. He hurried over, his expression ebbing with relief as he approached her. “Kiara-”“Killian, please don’t finish her!” Maya jumped in their middle, shielding Kiara behind her. “I- I know we must have done things to upset you in the past. Some misunderstandings happened, and you think Kiara is your enemy. Please don’t do something you’ll regret later. The evidence might be hard to find now, but I believe Kiara will never do something like that. Take me instead, but promise you’ll let my best friend go.”“That’s crazy.” Killian gave her a look of disbelief then pushed her aside. “I’m not that stupid.”The worry returned to his eyes as he stared at Kiara. “Are you alright?”“Huh?“Huh?”Both she and Maya exchanged confused glances. Hadn’t he brought them here to secretly finish them?Despite her confusion, Kiara nodded to his question, wondering if what happened hours ago was actually real and not a dream. “I- I’m fine.”“Great.” His eyes

…“Andrew, did you say that you’re Marcus Hale’s little brother?”“We’re twins.”“Why don’t you share a resemblance?”Maya had made herself too comfortable in the place and was even chatting with the man who had decided to stay behind to keep them company. However, Kiara had a feeling that Andrew Hale was just waiting for orders as he would constantly glance at his phone as if expecting a call. She didn’t know what kind of orders, though. She couldn’t tell what Killian was up to, and she was apprehensive now. It had been many hours already, and the evening was fast approaching. Killian hadn’t returned. Had he not found the evidence yet?What if there wasn’t any evidence? What if nothing could clear her name? Nobody would believe that Sophia’s fall from the stairs was only an accident. Considering their history, everyone would rather point fingers at her. “Do all twins look alike?” Andrew answered Maya’s question. “You talk too much, Lady. I have never been this interrogated befo

“So now I am your enemy!” The old man shouted. “That girl was sickle from the start! She was bound to die! If I had let you know her illness, would you have focused on that mission? Would you have been able to eradicate all the threats to the company?”Was his daughter’s life the price he had to pay for ridding the company of all the hidden dangers and future threats!?“Your reason is baseless! It makes me wonder if you have a heart!”“You!” His grandfather’s eyes reddened, and he stomped forward and raised his hands against him. “Everything I have done is to make sure this family remains stable. Do you think that it took only luck to build the most influential family in the city and the most thriving business!? I was only teaching you to be a man–”“You were teaching me to be heartless!” Killian snapped back. “Just so you know, I am no longer your puppet! You have no right to dictate my life!”He’d sent him on those constant trips. The old man made sure he worked his ass off in uphol

That was weird. Kiara ransacked the contents of her bag. However, it was as if that envelope had disappeared into thin air. How was it possible? She went outside and checked her car to see if she had forgotten it there. But Kiara found nothing. She was very sure that she’d dropped the envelope in her bag.She let out a helpless sigh and returned inside the building. Kiara headed to the bedroom, washed up, and got changed. She came back downstairs later to find Greg setting food on the dining table. “Where’s the cake?”“Got burnt.” He gave her an apologetic smile. “I set the temperature too high. I wasn’t looking.”“It’s okay. At least, you tried.” Kiara didn’t mind. This wasn’t his first time burning a cake, and she never got to eat any cake he’d baked. While eating, she casually asked, “Have you seen the envelope?”“Which envelope?” Greg looked confused as he stared at her. He probably wasn’t the one who took it from her bag. She hadn’t dropped it, had she? That was very strang
