Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE! Chapter 30 not even you, Arianna

ALESSANDRO’S POV

Every vein of mine started throbbing furiously at that assistant of hers. She actually gave a cold shoulder and left

with that guy! What could that man possibly offer her?

I just wanted to pack her up and then take her to my home if possible.

But I can’t simply do that! She already hates me enough, and I can’t tolerate more. Now I know how she felt when I

loathed her love.

A few days had only passed, and I was losing my sanity, but she endured my entire family and me for three years

without a complaint. I sighed, rubbing my face in frustration.

“Sir, why don’t we go back to the office now?”

I heard Calvin, who silently witnessed everything that happened, and I could hear sympathy lingering in his tone for

me.

I wanted to snap at him, but I didn’t. I only nodded, agreeing with him. “Let’s go.”

Getting inside the car, I closed my eyes, leaning against the seat.

These days, the more I see Victoria, the more she seems so different. As if something suddenly changed inside her.

I just don’t know what it is, but the change is there, and I can feel it.

She is… My thoughts were interrupted by a ring on my mobile, and when I looked at the screen, it was grandma.

At this point, I can guess why she is calling me now. Mrs. White couldn’t degrade Victoria in her workplace and saw

me here, taking her support. It is likely that she will report this to grandma.

But they don’t really get it, do they? I am not the same Alessandro from before, who was blinded by a stupid ego.

“What happened?” I said with my usual blank tone, receiving the call.

Grandma was silent for a second; maybe she didn’t expect this tone from me. Next second, she replied, “Come

home, Aless. I need to talk to you about a matter.”

I didn’t reply and cut the call.

“Turn the car to the old mansion,” I ordered before closing my eyes once again.

****

Reaching the mansion, Calvin opened the door for me, and I came out of the car.

With a sharp breath, I went inside only to find both grandma and Mrs. White sitting in the huge hall room as Mrs.

White was crying her heart out to grandma.

She is complaining about how Victoria insulted her, and I took her support.

My footsteps might get their attention, and grandma glared at me furiously.

“You are finally here, Aless! What is all this I’m hearing?” She said, caressing Mrs White’s back in comfort.

“And what are you hearing?” I arched my brow at her, ignoring that nasty woman completely.

“What is this attitude of yours, Aless? This is very unlike you! Very unacceptable! What that woman did to you that

you became like this, huh? What is wrong with you?!” grandma asked with disappointment and anger.

“I am sure that bitch did some black magic on him!” Mrs. White spoke beside grandma. She was trying to use her

as the shield against me. “She captived his soul too much that he even lied about the divorce alliance! She made

him torture my innocent Camilla! She is playing with him even after their divorce! And she…”

“Shut up!” I growled at her, not gonna have it anymore. I have had enough of this shit.

Both women were stunned, and Mrs. White slightly hid herself behind Grandma.

“Aless!” grandma retorted, half aggressive and half shocked.

“You are the wrong one in the first place and even shouted at her! Stop being stubborn, Aless!” Grandma closed

her eyes, trying to calm herself down and then open again. “Say sorry to her, Aless.”

My rage was on the verge of bursting. “For what? Standing for the truth or for not supporting the lie?”

“Aless…” grandma gasped, hurt at my words, but that can’t stop me now. I have lost her enough, and I can’t let it

happen again and again.

I raised my hand, stopping her in the middle. “Not a word, grandma. As you get to know many things, then you

should also know that Reywalt is going to support the new design auction Victoria will hold.”

“What? Alessandro! How dare you do that?” grandma shouted. “I won’t ever allow that to happen!”

I only smirked a little at her. “That is my final decision. No one gets to talk over it. Not even you, grandma.”

My words fell coldly. I have never talked like this ever with grandma, but this time, her blinded trust in that family

surpassed everything.

Tears formed in her eyes, and her weak knees probably couldn’t help her stand anymore. She slumped on the sofa

while shaking her head.

I gulped hard, wanting to go to her and comfort her, but my weakness would repeatedly give her power to

badmouth Victoria, and I don’t want that.

Sometimes, people need to close their love for the time being to make everything alright. And I did lock mine too.

Grandma looked up at me, weak and with teary eyes. “Aless, what is wrong with you, my child? How can you hurt

the woman who loved you all these years even though she is ready to be with you when you ignored her and broke

promises? Do you forget what that poor girl did and sacrificed for you?”

Her words ached my wounded soul, awaking the wounds again. The clear images of my deeds to Victoria started

pinching my heart badly.

I know she is talking about Camilla, but I could only think about my Victoria. Every second reminds me of my stupid

actions and her unconditional love for me.

A tight grasp in my heart suffocated me whenever I thought of that woman.

I gulped the tight lump that formed in my throat and stood starlight with my hands inserted in the pocket.

“No, I did not forget anything, grandma, nor would I. That’s why I committed to offering her something other than

marriage as compensation, and she requested what she wanted. Victoria has an upcoming auction where there is a

ring named ‘Beloved’ that she desires to obtain, and I promised Camilla to get that.”

“And that will be the last thing I will do for her. There will be no next time for her in my life.”

I said, turned around and left the place.

VICTORIA’S POV

“Are you sure about this, Victoria? You still have time to deny him. I can support the auction for you.” Antonio said

for the tenth time after I informed him about the bizarre situation in the office, and like every time, I denied it.

I returned home after that messed up situation in the office, and Daniel returned to the office.

My priority is to take care of my baby, so I can’t take any more risks today. I even consulted the doctor, and after

checking up, she said I better take some rest.

“It’s alright, Ant. I don’t care if he is my ex-husband. This is pure business. Moreover, I am grateful to him for

appearing on time.”

Antonio sighed from the opposite side of the phone. “Okay, as you say. And don’t worry anymore about that

bastard. I will take care of him.” I heard his hard tone; surely, he would destroy that Reynolds. Well, I won’t

complain, though. He deserves that!

“Okay, ask anything you need to Ricci. He is a secret helper for you,” Antonio informed me, and I shook my head

with a smile.

“I appreciate that, Ant. But I guess Daniel is doing pretty good in taking care. Don’t worry; I will ask Ricci if Daniel

can’t do it,” I assured him.

“And umm, Ant, I… I want to confess my pregnancy to mom and dad. Do you think it’s the right time for it?” I

asked, hesitating a bit.

Antonio chuckled reassuringly. “Of course, it is okay letting our parents know about this thing; you don’t need to

wait for the right time. Every time is right. And… Victoria, what happened?”

He asked; all of a sudden, hearing a loud gasp that I also heard. It came from my behind, and when I turned to look

at it, it was time to gasp in shock.

Mama was standing with her hands covering her mouth and dad beside her staring at me with confusion written all

over his face.

“Mama, papa…” I muttered. “I will call you later, Ant,” so I hung up. God knows what will happen now!

****

“Guys, please say something,” I said, watching my parents. They were now sitting on the designer couch in one

corner of my room, and I was sitting on the single sofa beside it.

They already heard my pregnancy part when I was talking to Antonio, which forced me to confess the truth to them

and still now, they are sitting in silence.

“I swear, I will kill him!” Finally, papa stated, declaring his final words, but immediately got a glare from Mama.

“Stop it.”

“How dare he touch my daughter?!” He defended his rage angrily.

“They were husband and wife, Vincent. So, stop being so dramatic. Moreover, it’s not about us; it’s about Victoria

and the unborn child.”

Her eyes fixed on me as she slipped between me and held my hands. “So, what are your thoughts about the baby,

sweetheart? Does he know about this?”

I shook my head, fidgeting my fingers. “No, he doesn’t. And I don’t want to let him know about this.”

“Oh, you want to keep it, or…”

“No!” I immediately denied the words before she could spell them. “No, Mama. I don’t want to lose this baby. I can’t

lose my child again.” A droplet of tears slipped from my eyes.

Mama sighed, wiping the tears away from my cheeks. “Yes, baby, of course you can. It’s your decision completely

whether to keep the baby or not. Just remember that, whatever your decision is, your papa and I are beside you,

always.”

I looked up at my father. His eyes slipped down to my belly, and then he rubbed his face.

“Your mother is right. Even though I want to kill that fucker badly, I support you in every way, Victoria. I won’t make

the same mistake again and let you suffer.”

Then his jaw set hard, and his eyes turned blank.

“But, if he dares to come after you next time, I will ruin him by myself, and that time, I won’t listen to anyone. Not

even you, Arianna.” He vowed with determination.

Well, papa, I won’t stop you either…
