All Chapters of The CEO's Ex-Wife Returns with Genius Twins: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The rain smashed violently against the floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the Vance Tower penthouse. Inside, the heavy silence was broken only by the sharp, rhythmic ticking of a grand clock and the brutal rustle of paper.Victoria sat motionless on the plush Italian leather sofa. Her fingers, trembling slightly under her sleeves, were tightly intertwined in her lap. Across the mahogany glass table sat Ethan Vance. He was a man carved from marble and cold granite. Tailored in an immaculate charcoal suit, his icy blue eyes fixed on her with absolute indifference. There was no warmth in his gaze, no remnant of the husband who had once sworn to cherish her when they wed two years ago. Beside Ethan sat Melanie—Victoria’s half-sister. Melanie was dressed in a soft cream silk dress, her eyes glossy with feigned tears as she delicately rested a hand on Ethan’s forearm."Victoria, please don’t make this harder than it already is," Melanie whimpered, her voice dripping with artificial sweetne

The air in the VIP terminal turned bone-chillingly cold.Ethan stared at Victoria, his mind reeling in absolute disbelief. The woman standing before him was not the quiet, timid wife who used to cook his meals in silence and flinch whenever he raised his voice. She wore a sharp crimson designer suit, her shoulders back, her gaze burning with an undeniable, royal arrogance. Her eyes—once filled with soft devotion whenever she looked at him—were now completely hollow of emotion. "Victoria..." Ethan took a step forward, his voice tight, almost breathless. "Where have you been for five years? I searched everywhere for you.""Searched for me?" Victoria let out a light, mocking laugh that sounded like delicate glass shattering. "Why, President Vance? To make sure I was still alive and not tarnishing the grand Vance family name? Or did you miss having a free servant at home?"Ethan’s jaw tightened. "That’s not why—"Before he could finish, little Chloe stepped up beside Victoria, wrapping

The red alarm text pulsed softly on the monitor screen, illuminating Leo’s calm face.Victoria walked over to the desk, her eyes narrowing as she read the encrypted code on the monitor. Melanie Vance was desperate. Stripped of her status, her luxury lifestyle, and her position beside Ethan, she had pulled the trigger on a final, reckless act of vengeance. "She used a offshore shell company to transfer two million dollars to the Black Viper syndicate," Leo explained, clicking his mouse to pull up the wire transfer path. "The hit is scheduled for 8:30 AM tomorrow morning, right before you enter the Vance Enterprise headquarters."Mark stepped into the study, his face dark. "Boss, I’ve already dispatched our elite security detail to track Melanie’s location. We can intercept the contract before—""No," Victoria interrupted softly, her voice cool and calculating. "Let the contract stand."Mark blinked in surprise. "Boss?""Melanie wants a show? I’ll give her one," Victoria said, a cold,

The corridor of Vance Tower suddenly felt ice-cold. Victoria stopped dead in her tracks, her hand clenching the phone so tightly her knuckles turned pale. Great-Grandfather Vance—Patriarch Samuel Vance—was the true shadow ruler of the entire Vance dynasty. A ruthless, old-world traditionalist in his eighties, he cared about only one thing: the purity and continuation of the Vance bloodline. When Victoria was married to Ethan, Samuel Vance had treated her like a invisible ghost, completely ignoring her because of her modest background. Now that he knew about the twins, he was coming for them like a vulture."Leo," Victoria said, her voice dropping into a razor-sharp tone. "Is the perimeter secure?""Yes, Mommy," Leo replied calmly. "Mark has already doubled the security around the villa. But the legal documents attached to the crate are real. Great-Grandfather Vance filed an emergency petition with the High Capital Court under the Ancient Family Estate Act. If we ignore it, they will

The atmosphere inside the courtyard of the Sterling Villa was electric with tension. Two sleek black government sedans with dark-tinted windows pulled up to the stone driveway. Four official-looking men dressed in dark suits carrying federal badges stepped out, led by a sharp-faced middle-aged man holding a red leather dossier.It was Inspector Vance-aligned Agent Harris from the Capital Child Protection Services."Under the emergency directive issued by the High Capital Court," Agent Harris announced in a cold, monotone voice as Mark stepped forward to block them, "we are authorized to conduct an immediate inspection of the living conditions, emotional state, and physical safety of the minors, Leo Sterling and Chloe Sterling."Mark crossed his arms, his massive frame completely blocking the front door. "You're five minutes away from getting your credentials revoked, Agent Harris. This is private property.""If you obstruct a federal officer, Mr. Mark," Harris smirked, holding up the
