Semua Bab The Plus-Size Ex-Wife's Comeback: Bab 61 - Bab 70

Genevieve's POV The final document slid neatly into its folder, and I leaned back in my chair with a satisfied sigh.Finally.For the first time in what felt like forever, my desk no longer looked like a disaster zone.Stacks of contracts had been reviewed, emails had been answered and tomorrow's schedule had been reorganized at least three different times. Since I was finally returning to the office after days away, I wanted everything to run as smoothly as possible.Convincing Norman to let me resume work had been an uphill battle.If there was one thing I'd learned about my husband over the past few weeks, it was that once he made up his mind, changing it required nothing short of a miracle.He'd insisted I needed more rest.I'd insisted the company needed me.He'd reminded me that capable executives existed for a reason.I'd reminded him that I happened to be the CEO..Round and round we'd gone until he'd finally, and very reluctantly, agreed that I could return.Even then, he h

Gabrielle's POV I walked into Lennox Global with a smile I hadn't worn in days.For the first time since everything happened with Dennis, the court case and my forced absence from work, I finally felt like myself again.The familiar sight of employees moving briskly across the lobby, the sound of elevator chimes and the quiet buzz of conversations somehow soothed me.I had missed this place.The receptionist was the first to notice me."Good morning, Mrs. Adams!”Almost immediately, several employees turned in my direction."Welcome back, ma'am!""It's good to have you back!""We've missed you."I smiled warmly at everyone as I made my way toward the executive elevator."Thank you. I've missed all of you too."The elevator doors opened onto the executive floor, and before I could take two steps, someone came running toward me."Mrs. Adams!"Marissa.She threw her arms around me without the slightest hesitation.I laughed as I hugged her back."Easy there."She pulled away almost imme

Nadia's POV I stood in front of the full-length mirror, turning slightly from one side to the other as I admired my reflection. The emerald-green dress hugged my figure perfectly, and the soft curls cascading over my shoulders framed my face exactly the way I wanted. I added one last touch of lipstick before reaching for my perfume, spraying a light mist over my neck and wrists. Perfect. Just as I picked up my clutch, my phone lit up. A smile spread across my face before I answered. "Hi, baby." I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear and smiled at my reflection. "I'm actually getting dressed to come see you." A soft laugh escaped my lips as I listened to the voice on the other end. "I've missed you too." The smile on my face slowly disappeared. "So... you need money again?" I sighed dramatically. "What happened to the twenty thousand dollars I gave you last week?" Whoever was speaking began explaining, and I rolled my eyes affectionately. "Okay, fine.” I glanced tow

Genevieve's POV Today was my dinner date with my father. Ever since we'd agreed to meet again, I'd been trying to convince myself that I was ready, but now that the day had finally arrived, I couldn't stop the nervousness bubbling inside me. Every time I thought about seeing him again, memories from our last conversation came rushing back. Norman had reminded me several times before leaving for work that morning not to overthink it. "You don't have to fix your relationship with your dad tonight, baby. Just have dinner with him, enjoy the moment and come home. That's enough.” It sounded so simple whenever he said it. Unfortunately, my brain had a habit of imagining the worst possible outcome before anything even happened. What if tonight became awkward? What if we argued again? What if I realized I still wasn't ready to forgive him? I let out a long breath and shook my head. "No, Genevieve. You're not backing out this time." After grabbing my handbag, I headed downstairs

Dennis's POV The moment I stepped out of the restaurant, someone walked straight into me."Watch where you're—"The words died on my tongue.Nora…no Genevieve.For a split second, I simply stared.She had changed so much that my mind struggled to reconcile the woman standing in front of me with the wife I'd divorced.Good…Lord.My eyes traveled over her before I could stop myself.The elegant dress hugged every curve of her body perfectly, accentuating a figure that hadn't existed when we were married.And the confidence with which she carried herself made her look even more breathtaking.Was this really the same woman I had divorced?Why was it that women always seemed to become more beautiful after a marriage ended?For the past few weeks, she had been appearing in my thoughts far more often than I cared to admit. Every news article about Lennox Global carried her picture, business magazines praised her leadership and social events featured another photograph of her smiling beside
