All Chapters of On Your Knees, Mr. Ex Husband: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

“Dahlia!” Everyone said at once, but she ignored them all and sat on top of Joyce and pulled her hair,“You should have killed me too, you fucking Monster!” Her voice cracked through the room like thunder, but before she could land another blow, she was lifted off Joyce by very strong arms. Even when she kicked and swung her arms, Silas still held her firmly.“Let me go! I’ll make her cross over, too.” She screamed, but Silas held her back and angrily said,“You keep forgetting you’re pregnant. Why the hell would you be so reckless! What is wrong with you?”Dahlia turned to face him and slapped him hard across the face, making everyone still. Not one person moved a muscle as the sound echoed in the living room. Edward turned and faced all the security detail and servants he had called earlier to find out where Dahlia had escaped to and said, “Everyone, out now.”No one had ever dared to answer back at Silas or cross him and live to see another day. Everyone who angered him seemed to m

The tone of her laugh was so unexpected that Jane froze."Madam?"But Dahlia only laughed again. Not because she found anything funny, but because she was so hurt even after three years of being treated like nothing. Silas still managed to hit another low. She couldn’t believe that he still thought she staged a kidnapping just to get his attention. ‘He must think I’m such a fool, and honestly, I don’t blame him. I did put this upon myself with how I followed him around like a damn puppy. But if they think I’ll just sit on my hands, then they have another thing coming.’ Dahlia vowed as she made her way upstairs with Jane following closely behind. When they reached the door, Jane finally asked,“Do you think Mr. Scott was serious about firing the others?”“I’ll ask my father to find other good jobs that can still keep them afloat. Tell them not to worry. Joyce will pay for everything she has done. All I need is to strip off that mask she has on, and then she will know what a real monste

Dahlia blinked, the bright light making her shut her eyes immediately. She groaned as she turned on her side and drifted off into sleep again. With how much she cried, how restless she had been, and the pregnancy exhaustion, she couldn’t stay awake even if she tried.The doctors Silas had called were all camped nervously in the guest houses on the left wing. He forbade them from leaving without checking on Dahlia. Meanwhile, back at the office, Silas was working late again. Joyce had kept him updated every hour, so he took his time to handle the issue with the board that was slowly becoming a big problem. “Has Dahlia been checked yet?” He paused reading a document to look at Edward, who was sulking the whole day.Edward pulled his glasses forward and shook his head.“You can respond with words, Edward. You know how angry that makes me.” Silas removed his reading glasses to stare holes at Edward, who remained unfazed in his assistant seat. “Seems like you’ve chosen to equally annoy m

As Silas drove Joyce to the hospital, he couldn’t help the suffocating feeling that was in his chest. He couldn’t help but wonder what he had just signed and if it was truly a property. He was so deep in his thoughts that he didn’t even notice the traffic light changing to red. His fingers tightened around the steering wheel as the memory replayed over and over again.No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t get the memory of Dahlia’s look in her eyes as she demanded that he sign the document. She didn’t care that he was taking Joyce first; she didn’t beg him like she always did, and somehow that worried him. He felt like something was happening that he wasn’t fully grasping, but couldn’t get his fingers on it.The loud honk of a car and a shout from Joyce brought him back,“Silas, watch out!” His eyes widened as he saw the truck speeding toward them. He slammed his foot on the brake, the tires screeching against the road as the car stopped inches away from the intersection. Joyce had

Dahlia opened her mouth, but no words came out.Where was she even supposed to start?The kidnapping?The bomb?The pregnancy?The fact that her husband had locked her in a room like a criminal?Dahlia sighed, remembering Edward was only two steps behind, and there was so much she couldn’t say in front of him. Ava looked behind her and then back at Dahlia, misunderstanding the whole scene. She took a step forward, her eyes angry as she held Dahlia’s shoulders,“Don’t tell me he has you followed!” She said in a displeased tone, “This is unbelievable! What the hell is going on?”Dahlia held her hands with a small smile, “No. It’s not like that. Silas is busy with Joyce. Why would he have me followed? I’m not well, so Edward is just looking out for me. Here.” She gave her the brown envelope where the divorce papers were, “I figured I’d drop them myself, you know,” Dahlia shrugged, “So Jane wouldn’t get- since she is busy training the new staff.” Ava watched her carefully, so many words a
