Chapter 040: She is back!

|• DELORESI watched in awe as the numbers continued to climb. The phone was right in my hand but I still couldn’t believe it. All it took was one gig. All it took was one shot, and I had my followers back and more. I chuckled as I read the comments of some of them who said they weren’t following back because they forgave but because they missed me breaking records. I knew they didn’t want to admit how much they loved me but their comments were giving them away. Sure there were others who still hated me, but what’s an actress without haters? I ignored them and looked around the cafe, waiting for Sylvie to show up.I was done with rehearsals for today, and my commercial going viral just added to my joy. I couldn’t wait to see how it’d perform in the coming weeks. It’s just been a day and there’s already this much response and comments. He went silent, his usual confident demeanor faltering completely under the weight of my words.“Why… why didn’t you tell me?” I demanded, letting go

Chapter 041: Fitting

|• DELORES“We’re going to your husband’s company for our fitting, Delores,” Helen muttered excitedly as the makeup artists retouched my makeup while we were in the bus.I had no idea why I had to retouch my makeup when I already looked good. Halden had said that due to my recent spike in popularity, there was no doubt there were going to be reporters waiting at the entrance of the company to have a chance at talking to me, and he wanted me to look good.Something told me that wasn’t the main reason. They all knew Aaron was my husband and wanted to win his favor. If only they knew I was already planning our divorce.Aaron might not be in support of it, but that didn’t mean I wouldn’t still do it.The bus finally came to a stop, and before I could even fully process it, the noise hit me.Voices. Loud. Overlapping. Calling my name.“Delores!”“Over here!”“Miss Delores!”My brows furrowed slightly as I looked out the window.There were so many reporters. Cameras flashing. Microphones ra

Chapter 042: Not letting her go

|• AARONI wasn’t ready either. I just hid it better.She stood there, pretending to be unaffected, but I could see it—the slight tension in her shoulders, the way her fingers moved like she didn’t know what to do with them, the way her eyes avoided mine for too long before coming back again. Delores was nervous. And for once… it wasn’t because of me.It was because everything around her was changing too fast. Fame. Attention. Pressure.And yet, she still stood straight like she wasn’t breaking inside. That was something I had always admired about her, even when she thought I didn’t notice.“Let’s just get this over with,” she said.Her voice was calm, but I could hear the slight rush in it, like she wanted to finish quickly and run.I exhaled slowly, then nodded. “Alright.”I picked up the dress carefully and turned toward her. “Turn around.”She hesitated. Of course she did. Her eyes narrowed slightly at me like she didn’t trust me. That hurt more than I expected.“Relax,” I added q

Chapter 043: Paris — a chance

|• AARONI stayed there for a few seconds after she left, staring at the door like she might walk back in. She didn’t. I let out a slow breath and ran a hand through my hair before stepping out of the room.The moment I entered the hallway, everything came back—voices, movement, staff walking around, assistants rushing from one place to another. Work.But my eyes found her immediately.Delores stood a few steps away with the rest of the team, and for a moment… I just watched. People were talking to her, smiling at her, looking at her like she was something special. No… not like. Like they knew she was.There was admiration in their eyes. Real admiration. Not fake. Not forced. Real.And I felt it. Pride. It settled in my chest so deeply that I had to pause for a second.That was my wife.The same woman who used to doubt herself, the same woman who used to hide behind others. Now? She stood there, answering questions, smiling softly, holding herself with a kind of quiet confidence that

Chapter 044: Back in business

|• DELORES“We’re having dinner at the new restaurant that just opened in town, Dee,” Helen held my hand as we walked out of Aaron’s company’s building together. “Why not come with us?” Before I could decline, Lila spoke from the back. “Why would you invite a married woman to a dinner between singles?” Her voice dropped with condescension. “You do not want her husband to think she’s cheating on him, now do you? With her reputation, he doesn’t trust her one bit.”I stopped in my tracks and took a deep breath. I wasn’t going to let her get on mh nerves this evening. I was tired, hungry, feeling a headache coming and the only thing I want to do now is go home, eat some salad and soak myself in the hot tub for as long as it’ll take.Drama wasn’t part of my evening plan.I ignored Lila completely and smiled at Helen. “You guys go ahead. I will you for dinner some other time.”Helen sighed and nodded. “Fine. See you tomorrow.” she smiled and gestured for the rest of the team to follow her.

Chapter 046: Accidents happen

|• DELORESAsher walked to where we stood, his smile a little too wide. I smiled back at him but seeing a whole Adriana stiffen at the sight of him, especially after what she said, made me feel weird like there was something I didn’t know.“Hello, beautiful ladies,” he greeted with a polite smile.Adriana scoffed beside me. I wondered if they knew each other. What was I thinking? Of course they would. These were business men and women who spoke about sales and shares over a mere cup of tea.“Hi, Asher, lovely to meet you again.” I stretched out my hand for a handshake but he took it and placed a wet kiss on the back of my palm.I grimaced and quickly pulled my hand away. I raised an eyebrow at him but he flashed me that soft smile of his instead. He turned to face Adriana but she had a frown on her face. Damn, what did he do to her? She looked ready to kill him with the way her eyes were literally throwing daggers at him.“It’s good to see that you haven’t changed a bit,” she folded h

Chapter 047: What I wanted…

|• DELORESI wasn't given my best friend enough credit. My schedule have been packed ever since Starlight Talent Group took me back. Jared had gone above and beyond to find auditions and perfect roles for me.I've gone to three red carpet events in a space of one week, while still preparing for my trip to Paris for the shooting of the film.Hilda, my manager, has been all over me, habdkding calls, fixing dates and trying to help with my body schedule. Today is the only day I have to breathe before my shoot at Belle tomorrow, and I needed to see Sylvie. I've missed her. I watched how she began crying on cue and smiled. My best friend is really talented. I want her to get projects even bigger than this.“And... Cut!” The director announced and patted her on teb shoulder. “Good work.”Sylvie nodded with a smile.“Take ten everyone!” he said and hurried to speak with the camera man.Sylvie looked around and our eyes met. She beamed and waved at me. Before I could wave back, she was alre

Chapter 047: Don’t touch my wife

Linda blinked, her eyes widening as she took in his words. At one point she felt like she was dreaming, but she stylishly pinched herself. The pain was as real as the confession just made to her.“Seth, I…”“I know we haven’t spent a lot of time touetger, Linda, but the little time we’ve spent has shown me that you are the woman I want. No woman has ever made me feel the way you make me feel. I feel like myself whenever I’m with you and I don’t get to hide my flaws with you, Linda. I love you.”Linda smiled as she stared at him. She couldn’t deny the fact that she had been attracted to him for a while now. It all started after he defended her against Roland — the way he fought for her and even punched Roland when Roland disrespected her moved her to the core. Though they had times when they’d banter and curse at each other, but she always found herself enjoying every bit of it. And yes, she got to be herself with him too; she hid no flaws and he was able to see all of her the same way

Chapter 048: Be a professional

PARISIt had been a quiet afternoon: sunlight streamed through the living room window, casting a warm glow across the furniture as Samantha, Ashlyn, Linda, and Mia lounged in the house, each occupied with her own thing. Laughter occasionally erupted as they shared jokes and swapped stories over cups of iced tea. It was the kind of day that felt ordinary and safe but was it really? This was the kind things out of the ordinary usually happened.Without warning, a loud knock echoed through the house. They didn't wait as the front door swung open a moment later, and several police officers strode in with determination in their eyes, their expressions unreadable.Samantha and the girls quickly stood up. What the fucking heck was going on? Why would these people barge into their living room like that?“Good afternoon,” one of them said firmly, his eyes scanning the room. “We’ve received a report regarding drug abuse at this residence. We’re here to investigate.”The room fell into stunned s

Chapter 049: Dear Father

|• Author’s POVEstella was in her room having a drink with wine and cigarettes. There was loud music playing while she screamed and danced. “I can't believe that actually worked!” she giggled and plopped down on the bed.Ryan smirked and took a sip from his wine. “See? I told you it was going to work. Who knew hiding that drugs in her room before leaving the house after she framed you would actually come in handy right now.”Estella giggled. “I know, right? I did tell her I was going to make her face the same thing. I also replaced her pills with drugs--”Her words were cut off when her door swung open and Linda barged in. “You bitch!” she rushed to Estella and pulled her to her feet, dragging her out of the house and into the living room.“Get your filthy hands off me!” she snapped, her eyes blazing with fury but Linda didn't care.Ryan remained in the room because he didn't want Ray, Estella’s father to see him. Ray has warned him to stay away from Estella and stop influencing her
