All Chapters of Mr CEO Your Ex-wife Is Back: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

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

EMMAI sat across from Williams at our favorite rooftop restaurant in central London, trying my best to smile and laugh at his jokes. The city lights sparkled beautifully below us, and the food was excellent as always, but my mind kept drifting back to the penthouse and to Ava. I didn't like the way she had looked when I left her this evening, all curled up on the couch, eyes red from crying while still pretending she was fine.I wasn’t really in the mood for a date night, but I didn’t want to burden Williams with all the family drama. He had been so patient with me lately. I owed him this evening.“You’ve been quiet tonight,” Williams said gently, reaching across the table to take my hand. “Everything okay, love?”I squeezed his fingers and forced a brighter smile. “Yeah, I’m fine. Just a little tired from work. Tell me about your day instead.”He talked about a new project at his firm, his eyes lighting up the way they always did when he was passionate about something. I listened, n

EMMAI smiled widely, trying not to laugh too hard at Williams’ silly joke about how he almost dropped the ring while setting up. The Sky Garden looked magical under the soft lights, I felt genuinely happy and kept smiling from ear to ear.“You really outdid yourself with the decorations,” I said, squeezing his hand. “I loved that you used purple everywhere. It’s my favorite color.”Williams grinned, looking a little shy. “Well, yeah… that part was mostly Ava.”I paused and blinked twice. “Huh?”“Yeah,” he said, chuckling. “Ava texted me this morning and basically took over. She told me exactly what to do, helped with the color scheme, hired the people who did the decorations, and even threatened to kill me if I messed anything up. Your sister can be really scary sometimes.”“Wow,” I whispered, feeling tears prick my eyes. “She went all out for this. Can you believe she personally picked this dress for me and gifted me this jewelry too.”“You have an amazing big sister,” Williams sai

JULIANI stepped out to my balcony feeling quite proud. I picked up my phone again and sent Sophia a message: “Meet me at my penthouse tomorrow at 10 AM. We need to discuss the future properly. Sweet dreams—Julian.”That night I slept like a newborn. The next morning I woke up feeling quite excited. I freshened up, did my early morning workouts, had my breakfast and got ready to welcome Sophia.My assistant arrived by 9:25am with the contract which he dropped off in the study and left almost immediately.I am no chef but I had made bangers and mash paired with sparkling red grape wine.Sophia arrived right on time. She looked elegant in a soft cream dress, her hand resting lightly on her stomach.“You look great.” I said while she nodded smiling. I took her to the dining area where we had our breakfast.“How is it?” I couldn’t help but ask.“Mmm, It’s good…Thank you..”“I made it myself, I’m glad you liked it.” I replied smiling.After breakfast, I led her to my study, where I had al

JULIANI stormed into my penthouse, slamming the door so hard the walls shook. The board meeting replayed in my head like a nightmare I couldn’t wake from.“Fuck!” I roared, throwing my briefcase across the room. It crashed against the wall, papers scattering everywhere.She was getting stronger. And it was pissing me off more than I wanted to admit.I poured myself a large whiskey and stood by the window, staring at the London skyline. The city looked the same, but everything felt different. I needed to shift the narrative. I needed something that would remind everyone who truly held power.I pulled out my phone and called Sophia. She picked up on the second ring.“Julian,” she answered on the second ring, her voice warm but cautious.“How are you doing?” I asked.“Very well, you?”. “Badly,” I said bluntly. “What’s wrong?” She asked, sounding concerned.“We had a board meeting today…..Ava managed to sway enough members to reverse the restructuring. She’s back in control of her port
