The Revenge Of The Billionaire's Ex Wife のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

She halted in her tracks fearfully, rushing to cover her ears with her hands.I stood still in my position, waiting for her to turn and walk up to me. I knew she'd do exactly what I imagined, and if she tried to act smart and indifferent by walking away, I was going to pull the trigger on her.Aurelia slowly turned to look at me, with her hands still covering both ears. I could hear her panting hard from the gunshot. My glare at her was strong enough to end her life if looks could kill.''I... Ivy?'' her voice conveyed the fear and distress she was feeling, ''You... You have a gun? Where did you get it from? And... Did you just fire it at--?''''Shut up!'' I ordered sternly, interrupting her questions, and making her shudder as she closed her lips tightly.She swallowed hard in fear. She looked like she had been punched in the gut, with her face pale and drained.We were a few feet apart from each other, but I wasn't going to be the one to walk and fill the gap. I was going to make he

The moment we pulled up in front of Dan Steward's law firm, I knew we weren't going to play. Nothing much had changed about the whole environment. The building was the same as it was twelve years ago, and it was a sucker to see it remain untouched even after being owned by a well-renowned lawyer like him.''Do you have an appointment with him, Ma'am?'' the tiny girl at the front desk asked me, preventing me from moving further into the office to meet him. I halted in my tracks and tilted my head backwards to give her an unwelcoming stare.''Yes, we do,'' Tristan had accompanied me just like we planned.''What's your name, ma'am?'' she inquired, and after hearing nothing, but silence from me, she raised her head up to continue, ''I'm sorry for bugging you with questions. But, it's just the procedure we need to follow,''I nodded absentmindedly, not really caring about what she was saying. My lips parted to respond, already getting impatient at waiting, ''Mr and Mrs. Kings,''Her finge

I made my way back home with a whole different mentality, trying so hard to register everything that Dan had told me. So, my father was murdered? But, not the way I had witnessed it? That was crazy!''What do we do now?'' Tristan asked me as we walked over to where our car was parked. He could see the way my shoulders were slumped in worry, and I guessed he was concerned.''I don't know,'' I responded honestly, ''I guess I'll just have to think about everything for now,'' The driver opened the passenger's door for me to get in, and once I was in, I muttered to Tristan, ''I need to see Elena,''****Only she could be responsible for the poison my father had ingested. While he was alive, I was the one taking care of his health, food, and everything that concerned him, until his last days on earth.Tristan complained that he was hungry, so we had to pull over at the nearest restaurant to get something to eat.We bumped into someone on our way into the premises. Tristan did actually. A

I got up in a rush, and dashed into the bathroom to take a shower. Standing in the shower, I kept scrubbing my body hard, hoping it would wash away the memories and intimate touches from last night.''What were you thinking, Valerie?'' I asked myself, trying to recall how I got into such a messy situation. How was I going to look Tristan in the face? What was he going to think of me? What about our friendship? How were we going to see or think of each other from now on? This was one big mistake that should never have happened. I screwed up big time.I took about an hour in the bathroom unknowingly. It wasn't planned, but I wanted to remain there so badly. I couldn't face Tristan's, neither could I imagine how he was going to look at me. Or even think of me. We both had sex even after proclaiming our friendship as a platonic one.My body was turning cold as I remained in the shower, and I was so close to freezing to death. I knew I had to get out of the shower and the bathroom. But, I

I didn't take my eyes off her for even a second. It felt like I was enjoying the show even more than Tristan who planned the whole thing. The guests started murmuring in confusion and side talks while I kept on sipping from my wine glass. Nothing felt better than watching the embarrassing look on the face of your enemies.Tristan nudged at me, signalling at the actions of Mr. Wellington. My eyes darted to his direction, and I saw the look of embarrassment in his eyes.''I swear to God, Daddy. I have no idea on what's happening,'' that was Rebecca pleading and trying to explain herself to her dotting father. But, he was startled, and watching the intimate scenes his beloved daughter was having behind secret doors.''How could you do this, Rebecca?'' her father's voice was filled with a tone of disappointment. His whole body was shaking in embarrassment as he kept trying to explain and calm down his guests. But, they were all gossiping and chattering without giving him listening ears.I
