My Ex-Husband's Temptation 113: Stubborness
WINTER:“I’m not saying they are siblings, Miss Winter. I don’t see any similarities at all,” Hawk retorted. “But there is something between them which I could not pinpoint.” He completely turned his focus on me. “Is there something you are hiding, Miss Winter?”My mouth felt dry while my heart hammered against my chest. “W- What are you trying to say? Besides, why did the attention shift to me when I don't have anything to do with this drama?”I bit the inside of my cheeks as they continued watching me. Hawk's eyes were full of suspicion but he was not voicing them. “You're acting suspicious, Miss Winter.”“I’m not! Why would I be suspicious?”Dang it.Why did I sound as if I was defensive? And why did I care if Hawk would find out that the two were half-siblings? I admitted that it was based on impulse so I suddenly butted in. For crying out loud, I was merely an expectation among the three. Simple…You don’t want Hawk to hate Nathalia just because of her relationship with your ex
My Ex-Husband's Temptation 114: What
WINTER:I was left speechless at Cali’s statement.I was not expecting what he would say.Me rejecting Hawk? There were times when I did think about that. That I should follow what my heart dictated, but then my mind would go back to Hawk and how the rejection would hurt him.I could not do it. I did not want to hurt him. "Pumpkin? Despite the revelations I found now, of Nathalia liking your bodyguard, can I still say that I have a higher chance now that my secretary wanted your bodyguard for herself?"My mouth opened and closed. He grabbed my hand and squeezed it tight. It was only a yes or a no answer, but why did it seem like it was difficult to answer? "Pumpkin? Please tell me if I have a better chance now?"He always had a higher probability of being accepted as my boyfriend. But then, what about Hawk?I instantly pulled my hand away and distanced myself away from him. "I did not say anything like that, Cali. All I am saying is that you don't have the right to dictate to Nat
My Ex-Husband's Temptation 115: Hawk
HAWK:I breathed deeply, seeing the scenery ahead of me. It felt like my chest was being stabbed a couple of times and it seemed like the pain was a million times worse than being burned alive.The rain continued pouring outside. The air felt colder. “Oh, what a lovely couple we have here,” Natalia murmured. “They looked so much together, right?”She was watching my reaction. And right now, I did not care what she would see. “You're speechless,” she commented and pinched my cheeks. Seeing the direction of my eyes, she continued, "Do you see them right now? They looked so sweet, right?" Nathalia whispered in my ears watching Miss Winter, cuddled next to her ex-husband. Someone killed me now. The more I watched them, the pain intensified even more. I could not see their faces since their backs were against us, but I could feel that Miss Winter was happy. If she was not, she would be pushing that bastard away.She thought Nathalia had gone home…Was that the reason why she lowered
My Ex-Husband's Temptation 116: Hawk
HAWK:Nathalia was sent by her boss to make me change her mind. Lifting her chin, she said, "Are you freaking kidding me? Of course, not! I ordered myself to do this. I don't want to see the man I like act pathetic like this. It's so not like you. I wanted to see the man who captured my heart the first time we met. He was a confident man, not someone like you looking depressed like this. No offense." She hugged herself when the cold hit her delicate skin. Why did she wear a striped tank top in this weather? It was her fault anyway. She had to learn her lesson. "What will I do to make you go? I'm already thinking about a lot of things. Don't add any more to my problems.""I'm not adding anything. How about temporarily forgetting your problem?"There was something evil in the way she stared at me.A shiver ran down my spine, not because of the cold, but the way she looked at me. She was planning something. This woman was evil. "What are you trying to say? Say it and get lost."I lo
My Ex-Husband's Temptation 117: Hawk
HAWK:Nathalia was a man magnet. Everyone was watching her every move and was trying to get her attention. They wanted her attention, but her eyes were only trained on me.I did not know why she kept on insisting on her feelings when there were others far better than me. Not all of the men in this bar were bastards. Some were rich.Nathalia seeped her wine, not aware of the attention she was getting. Her eyes were always trained on me as if I was the most interesting person for her. At the corner of my eye, someone on the other table was eyeing her. I inhaled deeply. Irritation kept on rising. They ogled her and I did not like the annoyance brewing inside me. Why would I get annoyed at the way they stared at her? Wouldn't it be better for me that someone would catch her attention so that she would shift her attention to other men?Relax, Hawk. This woman might be setting you up. See that satisfied expression on her face? She liked everything that you were giving her. "Are you fal
My Ex-Husband's Temptation 118: Worried Sick
WINTER:"Where could he be?" I asked for the nth time, referring to my bodyguard—Hawke. It was already eleven o'clock in the evening, and he was not here yet. It was seven o'clock when I found out my bodyguard was gone. Since Cali did not bring his car, I was supposed to ask Hawk if he could drive Cali back when the rain stopped falling, but to my surprise, the man was nowhere to be found. "Your bodyguard is not a child, Pumpkin. Don't worry about me. I can just stay here for another day."Here I was, worried for Hawk's safety, but it seemed that Cali did not share my sentiments. He kept on pressing that there was nothing to worry about since Hawk could protect himself.Cali did not know everything. "No, you cannot," I muttered, turning him down. I could not afford to make him spend the night here or else, something might happen between us. And then, Cali might expect something else that I could not give at the moment. I haven't made a decision yet. "You're going home, Calcifer,"
My Ex-Husband's Temptation 119: Bitch
WINTER:Cali looked at me when I did not answer. Seeing my confused expression, he asked, "What's wrong, Pumpkin? Is that your bodyguard? Let me answer it for you."He was about to grab the phone, but I shook my head. "It's Nathalia," I mouthed. His brows formed a straight line. "Nathalia? Why would she answer that bastard's phone? They haven't gone home, yet?" Realization marred his face. “What the fuck? What did she do to my secretary? Give me the damn phone!” he whispered harshly. I lifted it high when he wanted to snatch it from me. “That's what I am trying to find, Cali.” “Where are they right now?” I gave him a half-shrug. "I don't know," I answered. I returned my focus to the phone. "Nathalia. Why are you answering Hawk's phone right now?"There were shouts in the background. And what was that? Smashing of objects? “Nathalia? Are you okay?” I asked for the second time. “Do you want me to send over the police right now?”My heart hammered against my chest as I waited for
My Ex-Husband's Temptation 120: What Do You Think About Miss Nathalia?
WINTER:It was a rumble after Cali stepped in, and Hawk followed punching the group earlier. They were raining kicks and punches and grabbed whatever they could have and threw it against each other. My mouth fell open, no words would come out of my mouth. The scene looked like they were shooting an action scene. I flinched when the smallest among the group hit Cali. The latter staggered. Using the opportunity, the man was about to throw another punch at Cali, but Hawk came to the rescue, and threw him a punch on his jaw, rendering the man unconscious. Hawk and I locked gazes and he gave me a thumbs up. He swayed and was able to regain his balance. A thumbs up? Did he think this was fine?The other four men were about to attack Cali and Hawk, but Miss O shrieked and ordered her bouncers to step in. Bulky and large men stepped forward and successfully stopped all of them before great damage would be done. "Fuck you!" Calcifer cursed, in an attempt to attack the men again, but two
