Chasing My Ex-wife Back (Hailey and Cole) novel Chapter 2

Chapter 2

A few staff members saw her crying her eyes out the moment she ran out of the Boss’s office, but she couldn’t care less about their glances or gossip that was starting to spread.

Hailey got to her office, picked up her handbag, and exited the office building.

The tears came rushing in full force the moment Hailey got into the car. She buried her face in her palm and cried her eyes out until there were no tears left.

Not knowing what else to do, She started the car engine and made her way back home in the hope that this was all a dream. Cole was angry and by the time he returned from the office, he would be much calmer, they would settle their differences and she would tell him about the baby.

Upon pulling up at the gate of the mansion, Hailey’s heart shattered in pieces when she sighted familiar luggage boxes placed right outside the gate.

She got out of the car and then approached the gate.

“What’s going on here?” She said to Enoch who came outside upon sighting her car. He was the head security of the house.

“They were brought out here on the Boss’s instructions and you are not allowed to come in.”

“Cole said so?”

“Absolutely“

“You heard him. Take your things and leave.”

Hailey froze where she stood upon hearing that familiar voice. She finally turned to the direction the voice came from and it turned out to be Vanesaa, walking out of the mansion in nothing but a red short dress and matching footwear.

Hailey blinked her eyes in a bid to clear her vision. She shut her eyes and opened them again but she still saw the same person.

“What are you doing in my house?” Hailey attacked, trying to stay strong.

“I think I should be the one asking that question because this house is mine now.” She came to a halt before Hailey, folding her arms confidently.

“You are wrong if you think you can bully me out of my husband’s home.”

“You mean your soon-to-be ex-husband?” Vanessa mocked.

Her lips curved into a big smile. “You know how much I love seeing you miserable.” She brought her fingers to Hailey’s face and started to twirl her hair but Hailey shrugged her hand off.

“I can’t bear to see you be the wife of the richest man in the country. That would be so unfair to me. You are the step-daughter of the family and just like your dead mother who was a slut, you don’t deserve a good life.”

“Keep my mother’s name off your mouth!” Hailey challenged, trying so hard not to show her pain.

“Of course, It’s no fun talking about poor and ridiculous people. I am here to put you in your place so take your leave right now.”

Hailey had no idea what came over her or where she got the courage from. Her hand had landed really hard across Vanessa’s cheek before she realized what she had done.
