All Chapters of THE EX-WIFE HE COULDN'T RESIST: Chapter 141 - Chapter 149

Clara's Pov The night passed without much interaction.Leo was the first to fall asleep, exhaustion finally caught up with him. He'd been running around the whole place actively and I was beginning to wonder if he would ever feel tired from all the running around. I tucked him in carefully, brushing his hair back before turning off the light.The whole place was covered in silence after he went to bed. The woman who gave me the apartment allocation said the master's bedroom was meant to be shared but there was no way in hell I'd be sharing a room with Adrian. It was frustrating enough that I have to share an apartment with him and bear seeing him every time I want to use the kitchen or living room. I laid beside Leo, placing my head on the soft pillow, and I slept off almost immediately. The journey weighed on me. I had no idea how long I slept but the first turn I made on the bed led to me waking up immediately. For a split second, I was confused when u saw the unfamiliar room

Clara's Pov The temperature difference from the warmth in the house with the cold outside hit me and made me pause for a few seconds but after my body settled with the temperature, it didn't feel too cold anymore. I stepped off the porch and when I was far enough, I turned around and took a good look at the apartment. It was a long building with 'apartments' in them. Typical but not so typical. They built it in a way that it could house a lot of people while still managing space. Fascinating. So that meant that we weren't the only ones staying at the apartment. Other people were and I'm guessing other foreign people who were not part of us were also renting the place. Maybe the place was filled already, but I still wasn't convinced that in the whole of Korea, they couldn't find another apartment for us. It was just too impractical to believe. It had a see-through gate that wasn't as tall as a normal gate. Its bars were thin and spaced. The kind that you could just slide open and

Clara's Pov "What the actual f**k?" It took all the composure I could summon not to scream through the roof. I wouldn't have thought too much about the whole thing, in fact, I loved the apartment, I liked Mr. Han. He was a handful. I loved my handsome neighbor. I had no problem with the place. I wouldn't have had any problem if I was paired with someone else as a house mate. I just didn't understand why it had to be Adrian of all people that came on the trip. What happened to the other ladies? I dragged a palm down my face and stopped it at my mouth, screaming into my palms so it sounded muffled. Just then, a light knock sounded on the door and it was pushed open before I could ask who it was. Little Leo stood by the door. "Food is ready mummy." He informed me and I nodded, taking my hands off my mouth so he could see the smile on my face. "Have you brushed your teeth yet?" I asked and he shook his head. "Okay honey, come with me. I haven't brushed mine either but we

Clara's Pov For a second, I almost believed him when he said he was looking out for me. I almost did when he said he was the reason why the board called that morning. I wanted to really believe that he would support me genuinely without asking for anything in return but when I remembered what he said about taking the trip because of me, everything changed. The belief I was starting to nurse vanished almost immediately. I had my bath after dressing Leo up for the day. He was out of the room before I could finish my bath. I knew where he was so I didn't panic like the first time I didn't meet him in the room. I kept it simple with my dressing since we were in the house. It was chill outside but not too chill. So I wore a pair of pants and a top that wasn't too thick or light. Something to shield me from the cold and still let my skin breathe. After applying my body lotion, I picked my phone and sent a calm across to Cassie. She was another person I hadn't called since we arr

Clara's Pov “Can I taste?” I asked, pointing to the sauce left in the bowl.He nodded.I dipped a finger in carefully and tasted it.The flavor hit immediately—spicy, sweet, deep. It made my eyes widen just a little.“That’s… good,” I said, a bit surprised.Again his shoulders swelled with pride at my words. We continued like that for a while.Cutting, mixing, asking small questions and getting small answers.It was as though he timed everything perfectly. The second he was done with the last preparation for dinner, the food was ready to serve. "Lunch is ready ma'am." He said to me with a slight bow and I took the cue to head upstairs to tell Adrian and Leo about it. We all returned to an already set table and dishes on the table. "If you continue to feed me like this, I'll be fat within a week." I declared, taking a seat by the table. I was loving the princess treatment or whatever this could be called. Lunch was amazing as usual. Burst of flavors, new taste in our mouths and
