Semua Bab Mr CEO Your Ex-wife Is Back: Bab 111 - Bab 120

EMMAThe weekend came faster than I expected.I woke up earlier than usual, my eyes opening before my alarm even had the chance to ring. For a moment, I just lay there, staring at the ceiling, trying to calm the strange mix of excitement and nervousness sitting in my chest.Today was the day. I was going to meet Williams’ father. I sat up slowly and ran a hand through my hair.“Why am I this nervous?” I muttered to myself.It wasn’t like I hadn’t met people before. But this felt different. I’ve been tensed up throughout the night. I felt the need to create a good impression and was scared I would end up messing things up.I got out of bed and stepped out of my room, heading downstairs. Ava was already in the living room, scrolling through her phone, it was quite the surprising cause I usually wake up before her.She looked up the moment she saw me.“You’re awake early,” I asked, raising a brow.“I

AVAI arrived at the office later than usual after the long breakfast planning with Emma. Traffic had given me plenty of time to replay our strategy in my head. I stepped out of the elevator and walked confidently down the corridor toward my office.Ameera was already waiting with her tablet ready, her usual professional smile in place.“Good morning, Miss Ava. You’re a bit late today,” she said, falling into step beside me. “Here’s your schedule. You have two virtual meetings this morning, a lunch review with the marketing team at 1 PM, and several document approvals. Also, tomorrow’s strategy meeting with Mr. Julian and the board is confirmed. He wants to focus heavily on the Harrington Elite campaign. He asked that you prepare some supporting points.”I smiled and took the tablet from her. “Thank you, Ameera. You’re always so efficient. Please ensure the conference room is fully prepared for tomorrow. I’ll handle the supporting points personally.”I entered my office, closed the do

DANIELI spent the entire night thinking about Julian’s threat, pacing the living room like a caged animal while the whiskey bottle slowly emptied. Every scenario I imagined ended badly. If I told Ava, Julian would strike harder. If I stayed, he would destroy her. If I left… she might survive.By the time the sun rose, I was drunk and exhausted. I barely made it to bed before passing out.I woke up later that morning with a pounding headache and the familiar weight of guilt on my chest. Ava was already awake, lying on her side and watching me with worried eyes.“Daniel… what’s wrong?” she asked softly, brushing her fingers through my hair. “You’ve been drinking a lot lately. This isn’t like you.”I forced a tired smile and pulled her closer, burying my face in her neck for a moment, breathing her in. “I can’t stop thinking about the stunt Julian pulled yesterday. The way he’s coming after you… it’s eating me up inside.”Ava sighed and hugged me tighter. “I’ll be fine, baby. I promise

AVAI woke up with a strange heaviness in my chest, even though yesterday’s move against the Harrington Elite campaign had gone exactly as planned. I pushed the feeling aside, got out of bed, and went through my morning routine …a long shower, careful skincare, and choosing a sleek navy blue suit that made me look every bit the confident Executive Vice Chair.By the time I arrived at the office, I had steadied myself. I stepped out of the elevator and headed toward my office, expecting a normal day of managing the aftermath.Ameera met me halfway, looking slightly flustered.“Miss Ava, Mr. Julian is waiting for you inside your office. He arrived about fifteen minutes ago.”I paused for a second, then nodded. “Thank you, Ameera.”I pushed open the door. Julian stood by the window, hands in his pockets, looking out at the city. He turned when he heard me and smiled warmly.“Good morning, Ava,” he said, stepping forwar

AVAI was already seated at the dining table waiting for them when Daniel finally came downstairs, freshly showered and changed into comfortable clothes.“You are not eating?” Daniel asked, looking at the untouched plates.“I’m waiting for you and Emma,” I replied with a small smile.“Right, Emma… Is she back?” Daniel said, pulling out his chair. “Mrs. Keller said she didn’t come home yesterday.”“Yes, she is back but she is not looking so good.”“What’s wrong?”“If she didn’t come home yesterday, that means she was probably with Williams, and now she came back crying,” I said, my worry growing. “Crying?” Daniel asked.“I swear to God, Daniel, if Williams hurt her in any way, I’ll kill him.”“Calm down, Ava. Let’s not rush into conclusions,” Daniel said gently, though I could see concern in his eyes too.“But why is she taking so long to come out?” I asked, glancing tow
