Ex-Wife, You Are Mine! Chapter 107. The Jealousy Blast
Bruce carried a bottle of champagne in one hand and two glasses in the other. Meanwhile, Malikha was relaxing outside, admiring the beautiful flower garden beside the vacation house. After inspecting every room and reviewing the property's interior, Bruce wanted to celebrate by treating her to a drink. He set the bottle down on the small table beside her."Oh, I don't usually drink, Bruce. I tried beer once when I was in France, and I regretted it immediately," Malikha said with an embarrassed smile, politely declining his offer.Bruce laughed at her confession."Really? Why?" he asked, chuckling."I only had one glass, and I got completely drunk. I started acting strangely and couldn't remember a single thing afterward. I have no idea what embarrassing things I did. If Aidan hadn't come to pick me up, I probably would've ended up sleeping on the street." She giggled softly at the memory.The moment Aidan's name slipped from her lips, Bruce's smile
Ex-Wife, You Are Mine! Chapter 106. Run Again?
The morning had barely settled into its usual rhythm, yet Glenn Matthews was already in a foul mood.His patience—never particularly abundant to begin with—had finally snapped.The moment he pushed open the door to Aidan's executive office, the sight before him made his blood boil. Once again, Lucy had found another excuse to throw herself at Aidan before he left to pick up Lea, Raphael Augustin's girlfriend.Without bothering to hide his irritation, Glenn strode across the room and slammed a thick stack of documents onto Aidan's desk with enough force to make the polished wood shudder.The sharp bang echoed throughout the office.Lucy, who had been casually perched on the edge of Aidan's desk while chatting with him as he signed several contracts, whipped her head toward Glenn with an irritated frown.Aidan merely glanced up for a brief second before returning to the paperwork in front of him.He didn't scold Glenn.Frankly, he had grown exhausted by Lucy's increasingly shameless beh
Ex-Wife, You Are Mine! Chapter 105. Maybe I Was Wrong
GREENWICH, CONNECTICUTBruce’s car arrived after nearly an hour and a half of driving from Noxtrot. The two of them stepped out onto the front grounds of a housing development company called Ranallo Construction & Housing Developer.The scenery surrounding the office was absolutely breathtaking. It was the kind of view Malikha had never imagined she would find so close to a city as crowded as New York.“This is so beautiful,” Malikha said softly as she looked around.Bruce smiled, pleased to see how much she was enjoying the trip. He then led her inside the construction company’s office, a firm that specialized in residential developments and custom housing projects.“This company hires us for exterior and interior design services. Noxtrot has worked with Ranallo Construction on several luxury homes. Now they’ve asked us to design a retirement house project,” Bruce explained proudly.
Ex-Wife, You Are Mine! Chapter 104. End This Soon
Malikha tried her best not to think about what she had just seen. For a brief moment, she had wanted to speak with Aidan about their marriage and perhaps give their relationship another chance, but that desire had now disappeared completely.Eventually, the taxi brought Malikha safely to Noxtrot. She had already arrived late because of the ridiculous confinement she had endured earlier. Reluctantly, she knew she had to meet Bruce and apologize.“Malikha... you’re here? I thought you weren’t coming today either,” Bruce said as he approached her, his face filled with concern.Bruce had been unable to contact Malikha ever since the divorce case.Malikha knew he was referring to the court hearing several days ago. She answered his concern with a gentle smile, pretending that nothing had happened.“I’m fine,” Malikha replied reassuringly.“Where were you? Why didn’t you show up at the hearing?
Ex-Wife, You Are Mine! Chapter 103. Naive
Desperation could drive a person to do reckless things, even to challenge death itself and risk their own life. That was exactly what Malikha was doing now. To escape from Aidan Caesar, she was willing to do something completely outside the boundaries of her usual behavior.Under normal circumstances, Malikha would have thought twice—or perhaps a thousand times—before making such a dangerous decision. But desperation had clouded her judgment and pushed her to do whatever it took. That included persuading the woman living next door to come to her apartment.At first, Malikha had considered simply jumping from her balcony to the neighboring one, but the woman immediately stopped her.“Don’t do that. Let me come over and get you instead. Just stay there and wait for me,” the woman said after Malikha explained that she had been locked inside by her possessive and jealous husband.Malikha even added a few dramatic details to the story, claiming that her husband had imprisoned her and forbi
Ex-Wife, You Are Mine! Chapter 102. Trapped Again
Malikha finished her lunch more slowly than Aidan. Before she was done eating, Aidan decided to surprise her, hoping to ease her stress and keep her from dwelling on everything that had happened.“After you finish eating, take a warm bath with a bubble bath bomb. I’ll prepare the bathtub for you. Just give me a moment,” Aidan said with a sweet smile as he rose from his chair.He walked into the bedroom, leaving Malikha staring after him in bewilderment. Aidan’s behavior seemed incredibly strange to her. She glanced at Eva and Jessica, who wore expressions just as confused as her own. The two maids looked back at Malikha and grinned.That day, Malikha was treated like a queen. Aidan did everything he could to keep her from thinking about leaving his apartment again.“Enjoy your bath. I’ll be waiting for you in the living room.” Aidan smiled, gently ruffling her hair before leaving her alone in his luxurious bathroom. Malikha remained confused and had not spoken much since the panic att
Ex-Wife, You Are Mine! Chapter 84. The Monster Is Still There
When Arjoona finally arrived, the entire funeral hall immediately fell silent before every mourner rose to their feet. Members of The Seven Wolves and Golden Dragon stood almost instinctively the moment they saw him walking inside. One by one, beginning with James and Shawn, followed by Bryan and
Ex-Wife, You Are Mine! Chapter 79. Critical Eleven
The one thing Malikha regretted more than anything else in her life was that her first love had been a foolish teenage boy who was arrogant, loved showing off, and lacked a decent personality. Jason Holland had probably trapped dozens of girls their age with his charm, including Malikha Swan, the
Ex-Wife, You Are Mine! Chapter 77. Surrendering
“Then what am I supposed to do?” Aidan asked softly, his voice carrying equal parts surrender and hopelessness.“In a relationship, love and hate always exist in the same space,” Raphael answered calmly. “A person can love someone deeply, then suddenly hate th
Ex-Wife, You Are Mine! Chapter 76. Inside My Heart
For as long as he could remember, the only sweet, love-filled kisses Aidan had ever given belonged to Malikha. No matter how often his lips claimed he hated the woman who had trapped him, the woman who had nearly cost him his life, the truth hidden deep inside his heart had never once changed.
