All Chapters of His Ex-Wife Came Back—Stronger.: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

“Long time, hasn't it?” Amber said, not at all sounding like one who was pleased to meet someone she hadn't seen in a while.Of course, I shared in her feeling. Not at all pleased to meet her.“Why are you here?” Nora stepped forward, her heeled feet making her short self seem taller. “I could ask the same, you know?” At that point, I wasn't even sure if I cared to be chatting with them.They weren't worth my time.Nora scoffed, an irritating sound. “Of course you could.”“Listen, I don't have the time to waste with you and your trashy talks. I've got somewhere of importance to be, not here with you both.” I stared plainly, about to turn when Amber chipped in.“Yeah, go on.” Her voice leaked with scorn. “Go on to whoever it is you keep scamming. We know that's the only way your asshole self can afford this life you live. Even if you try to say otherwise.”My body exploded by her words, furious that even after three years, she was still as stupid as ever.“Seriously?” Tina offered a h

“Sam! What happened?!” Nora called, obviously rushing from behind to try catch up, but I didn't care.I got straight into the car, started it then zoomed off.All the while, my thoughts were on the fact I actually had a son. Like really, Emery had kept something this huge from me.Something as huge as being a father.And she didn't think to let me know I was one.Wow.Never had a drive felt so long, but finally, I pulled over in front of hers and Chloe's place.And as we would have it, just at that moment, Emery got out of the house, clutching Donald in one hand and a traveller's bag in the other, looking very much like a child about to run away from home.Wait, was she seriously planning on running away? Did she figure out I might have found out the truth and the first thing she thought was smart to do was escape.What on earth?Quickly, I got out of the car, watching how the color drained from her skin at my sight.Her feet paused instantly. In fact, I was certain she'd forgotten h

Dale kissed back, his arm finding its way round my back while the other rested steadily behind my neck, sending an electric current down all areas of me .In a good way though, because as our tongues moved in sync with each other and goosebumps trailed down my entirety, I realized I was starting to feel how I hadn't felt in so long.Something was beginning to take form in me, rising all over my entirety. A feeling that scared me.Because this was one that has likely passed the stage of mere admiration.It seemed it might have developed into something more.***My sleep was disrupted by the sudden light that shone straight to my eyes, causing a scrunch of my face.But I was enjoying my state of snooze way too much to allow it be disturbed by anything.Which was why, with a slight groan, my body rolled over on the soft bed, lifting the duvet over my face to shield any light from being a disturbance.“If you want to stay there all day, I wouldn't mind.” Dale's deep voice said. “As long a

~ Emery ~I had barely gone out of my room ever since the day I'd almost left for Japan.Of course, that was a result of me not thinking straight, because the moment Chloe let me know Sam had found out about Donald, all forms of reasoning disappeared. All I just wanted to do was run. Escape to anywhere. As long as me and my son would never be found.A very dumb decision.Chloe would've been very furious and likely never forgiven me. So far, she was still annoyed at me.I hadn't seen her around much, but the few times we'd bumped into each other, she'd frown, ask if I was ready to tell her the truth, and leave when my reply was with nothing but silence.Today however, with me on my way to meet Sam, she came over to the room, Donald in hand.“Thanks for helping me watch him while I'm out.” I said, putting on the green slippers that likely didn't match with the purple gown I had on.In fact, my appearance was nothing to be proud of.But I didn't care.It wasn't like I was going there f

“Because I love you.” Dale's words were followed by silence. Full, complete silence.We both paused, staring straight at each other.People passed by, cars zoomed off, the doormen greeted customers getting in.But we both stayed unmoving, no words said, no sound made.It took a moment before I got myself a little, but the shock hit harder than ever.“Do you know what you're saying?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.He sighed, shoulders seeming a little tense. “I-I didn't mean to say it this way, but yes. I've loved you for a long time, although I've refused to admit it, not only to you, but to myself.”My heart skipped a beat by those words, breath hanging somewhere up in the air.This was all coming to me as a complete shock.“The day of the event, when I saw you after so long, something stirred up in me. Seeing you again,” he seemed to hesitate slightly, “it brought something in me. And-And I realized I might've missed you. More than I thought I did.”“I—” was at a loss of
