Secret Unveiled: my ex-wife is a big shot

Secret Unveiled

Stacy pov

Stacy's point of view

I packed everything that passed as my property. I was broken hearted, heavy and filled with vengeance. I gave him that social ladder he climbed. Now that he repaid me with evil, I won't hesitate to take him down.

I picked up my phone and I called Mr Paul. He picked up. “Hello. My husband just divorced me because he is successful. I want you to take down his position in the dragon empire.” Giving that command, Paul replied positively before I ended the call.

I managed to get an Uber that took me to a nearby hotel.

Few minutes later, I received a call from Mr Paul. I picked it up. “His position has been taken down.” “Since you are now divorced, is it not time for you to return home?” Hearing that made me remember what happened five years ago.

My father; Mr Watson, wanted to give me in an arranged marriage to Sabastian. I totally abhor it. And when I found this young man, I decided to go against my father's wish. Due to my disobedience, my father disowned me. I went away from home to marry that young man. I stripped myself off my identity.

I snapped out of the thoughts. With pain in my heart, I responded. “I can't go back home now. I went against my father's wish and I am sure he doesn't want to hear from me.” Saying that to him, Mr Paul understood every point of mine. He ended the call.

Few minutes later, I received a call from my secretary. I picked it up. “Hello. I am sorry that your husband just divorced you. The Chaldeans empire needs you now. Should I send your driver to pick you up?”

Hearing that, I took an intense breath. I am the founder of the Chaldean's empire; a top-ranked company in the world. “Come and pick me up.”

The secretary ended the call. Thirty minutes later, seven convoy cars arrived. I was escorted out of the hotel into the car. Each car is worth over fifty million dollars each.

It only took a few minutes to drive before I got back to the company again. Then, I was approached by my secretary. “Ma. Your ex-husband is still owing the company.” Hearing that made my lips curved with a smile.

“What are you still waiting for? Get him arrested.” “I will personally go in person to see him in the police net.”

…

Several hours later. “Your ex-husband is now in police custody.” Hearing that, I replied sharply. “I am coming to see him.” After saying those words, I hung up the phone and I took steps out of the company.

I went to see him.

Getting out of my car, I stepped into the police station and I was escorted by the policeman to meet with him.

Getting in front of him, Greg challenged me. “I thought you said I shouldn't worry about the loan. Why am I getting arrested for it?” He shot a deadly glare at me.

His words brought back memories. Three years into our marriage, Greg was hell-bent on getting into a profitable business. I suggested that he take a loan from the Chaldean's Empire. Unbeknownst to him that I was the owner of the company. He took the loan and he was bothered about paying up after he lost everything to the business. I told him not to get himself worried. Since then, he didn't worry about it until now.

“You got arrested for it because you left me. That word of mine only irked him. “And who are you to determine how the Chaldean's empire operates?”

Hearing that from him, I brought out my ID. I gave it to him and started talking. “I am the founder of Chaldean’s empire and that is why you weren't pestered to pay up the loan. Now that you left me, you will have to pay up everything.” I saw fear all over his face. “Why are you looking scared? I thought you said you will pay me off with two million dollars.” I arched my eyebrows.

Greg was dissuaded. He couldn't believe his ears as the truth was revealed. His world came crashing down. He spoke defensively. “You deceived me to take this loan from the start. You made me not pay even though I was worried at first!” “Two million dollars wasn't huge when I had my job. The dragon empire fired me before I even started working!” He furrowed his gaze at me.

That only made me chuckle. “I didn't deceive you. You brought this on yourself.” “I was the one that recommended you to the Dragon Empire. And immediately you divorced me, I made them fire you.” Hearing that, he locked his eyes on me.

“What did you say you did?!” He took a break; finding it difficult to believe. “So, you were behind my downfall? Who the hell are you?” “We have been married for five years and I don't know you at all. How possible is this?”

I knew it had begun to rub on him as a reality. “I hid my identity from you. When I was about revealing it, you were impatient and you divorced me.” “All your achievements came from me, Greg.”

Hearing me say those words, he shivered in pain. And I spoke in anger. “After making you who you are, the first thing you did was to divorce me. How ungrateful can you be?” “You made all my sacrifices go in vain and now, you will suffer the consequences of your action.”

Greg didn't know he would regret his actions so soon. He realized he was going to spend the rest of his life in jail. He went on his knees.

“Please forgive me. I have realized my mistakes.” Hearing that from him didn't make me flinch. “I told you that you are going to regret it. Do you regret it now?”

With pain twisting his lips, he replied, “I regret it. I regret every bit of it.”

After hearing him say that, I took my ID and left the police custody. He called my name and he tried to stop me, but I didn't listen.

…

Getting out of the police custody, my phone started ringing out. Checking it, I realized it was my father. That came as a surprise to me. My father didn't want to have anything to do with me five years ago. Why is he calling me now? While in thoughts, I decided to pick up his call.

“Hello, daughter. It's been five years that you have been away from home. It came to me as news that you have just divorced your husband. I want you to return home to take your rightful place as the heiress of everything I have. But you must know that your return means you accept to marry Sabastian.” Hearing those words from him made me swallow the saliva in my mouth.

I felt my heart racing hard against my chest. What I ran away for came back knocking at my door. I realized I need to make a decision that will change my life forever.
