Mr Ceo's Pregnant Ex-wife

Krrrrriing!? Krrrriiing!

The incessant sound of the phone ringing was getting to my nerves, it was making my headache worse.? All I wanted to do was to lie down and get another round of sleep since I felt I was deprived of sleep for an unknown reason. Aside from the unwelcome headache that pounded my head,? my tender body ached all over as if I spent the night doing some tedious work out which was nearly impossible during my drunken state.

My murderous glare returned on the top of the night table where the annoying ring was coming from. I wonder who died since the ceaseless call continues to pursue me.? What kind of bad news will I receive?

Should I answer the phone or not?? I pondered inwardly.? In the end,? I decided to answer the call.

I let go a deep exasperated sigh as my fingers picked the screaming phone on the top of the night table. My good mood was ruined by an early morning call and it won't just stop so to end this annoying call and before I could throw it outside the window from mental exhaustion I turned it on.

Sob!? Sob!

My eyes widened when there was nothing but the loud sound of a whimpering female voice which greeted my ears.? Is this some kind of kidnap for ransom call? Dear lord hopefully not. I have no money to give a ransom for a stranger's freedom.

"Good grief Ace!? Why aren't you answering the phone!? Where have you been all night!" The frantic voice nearly broke my eardrums.

The sound of my heartbeat intensified when I immediately recognized Angela's voice.? It was easy for me to recognize that voice since her insulting words still haunt me even to my sleep.? I exactly recalled how she called me ugly.

My trembling fingers turned the loudspeaker on as I carried the phone in front of my eyes and eyed it with scrutiny, I then realized that the phone wasn't mine—it belonged to Ace. It was some kind of honest mistake since we have the same phone unit and it happened that our ringtone happened to be similar.

'Does this mean Ace spent the night with me?' The disheveled condition of the bed and the wrinkled spot where he must have slept confirmed it.

Could it be that last night wasn't only a dream I thought it was?

I nearly had a heart attack after my eyes caught the discarded clothes lying on the floor which I easily recognized belonged to my husband.

"Damn you, Ace!? Why aren't you answering me?? Have you gone deaf and dumb?"

"F*ck you Ace!" Angela screamed that made my eyebrows merge into a single line. It took me an incredible amount of self-control not to curse her back.

"I'm pregnant Ace.? You are the father!"

The phone slipped out of my hold after hearing the truth. It's as if a bomb had been dropped right in front of my face,? paralyzing me for a moment. 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝙗nov𝘦𝗹.𝐜o𝓶

I died inside.

"Ace? Hello!? Are you still there?"

I could no longer hear Angela's frantic cries. It was the clear sound of my heart falling to the floor and shattering into a thousand pieces that I could only hear. I have no idea how I was able to put on some decent clothes and slid my backpack in a short amount of time before I made a beeline straight out of the room and walked into the hallway like a zombie.

The pain clutching my heart firmly.? I can barely breathe from the torture my heart was under. I was in a damn hurry that I was already inside the cab before I realized that I was not wearing a bra beneath my t-shirt but it doesn't matter anymore. As long as Ace was out of my sight I would be fine.

I told myself not to give up my husband for a thousand reasons. But now I realize that his mistress was pregnant, it gave me one reason—enough to finally give him up for real. f𝐫ee𝘄ℯ𝚋no𝐯𝐞l.c𝘰m

I can never provide him an heir and Angela finally did. This is where the story between Ace and Phoenix ends. Destined to meet but was never meant to be. That's enough reason for me to finally set him free.
