All Chapters of Marrying the ruthless CEO to destroy my Ex-husband : Chapter 1 - Chapter 7

The stage is covered with a backdrop of stories, faces, names, and hopes. Elegant tables linened with glamorous silk cotton. That's how I describe the whole place. Honestly, this is my first time going out together with Lucas. Ever since I left my home and chose this kind of life. This is my first time appearing to the public in the longest time, and yes, I feel nervous especially since there were different cameras around us. I’ve been with him for 5 years, and yeah! I met him in the lowest part of my life. I ran away from home because my parents wanted to marry me to their closest business partner, but as a woman who wants to explore, and feel the love that’s not forced. I escaped in my own reality and I ended up on his territory, where I found genuine love that I never expected. Right now, It's the 25th foundation anniversary of his charity. The charity that once became his home when he had nothing and looking at him now, I am beyond proud of him for making everything impossible. I

I woke up to the sunlight filtering through the window. I looked around, searching for my husband, only to realize that the bed was empty. The sheets were already crumpled. Suddenly I hear an echo came from the bathroom. After a second, I found him coming out from the bathroom. His hair is wet and… topless. I stare at him for a second and suddenly everything flashes back. Everything feels like the beginning of how I fall for him. He still has a beautiful body figure that every woman can drool over. But the thoughts that were running through my mind suddenly disappeared, along with my smile, because I remembered what happened last night. “Good morning, Do you sleep well?” I looked at him so trailed. Like, He is aware how I take those things at once. He looked at my eyes “you didn't sleep” then he looked away, finding his suit to get ready to be in his office. “Is it because of what happened last night? It's about Scarlet?”I suddenly clenched my hand when I heard her name. “

“Damn it, Kayla! You're just too much!” his soft palm landed on my face. I barely touched my face. I felt like it welled up because of too much pressure. But I can handle this pain compared to the pain they have been feeling right now. “Lucas…” I called his name full of frustration and irritation. “How dare you!?” my voice almost cracked and trembled. But he just stood in front of me, his eyes glaring at me. His jaw tightens, and feels like he is controlling himself to do something worse. “Please, explain to me Kayla? Why do you slap Scarlet? She is just here because we have a meeting about our business. And you are acting like you’ve been hurt? If you are hurt because you lost something on you… blame yourself don't blame others for your stupidity!” he barked at me. He is willing to do everything just to protect Scarlet. I bit my lower lip in anger. My legs become weaker. “ What! Have you heard what you said? For God sake we lost our baby and you're just acting like nothing happ

Of course, why would he go home, when I'm not his home anymore.“Here we are again, overthinking the things that are beyond to happen.” but I couldn't stop thinking about the things that are possible to happen.In five years of our marriage, I have never been this uncomfortable whenever he was surrounded by women. Just this time when Scarlet came back.I finished my food on my plate and started to clean the table. I just help the housemaid for a while. “Miss, maybe you should take a rest for a while. I’ll be the one to do that, it's our job after all.” One of the housemaids told me.I just smiled at them, and said. “No, let me help you. I’m okay, I can rest after this.” The house maid let me do some stuff. Then after a few seconds, I felt someone's presence, when I turned my back. I saw a woman who totally hated me and despised me.“Nope, you can’t rest after that!” In the middle of doing my thing. I heard a familiar voice behind my back.Her voice is full of authority and demand.
