Running After my Secret Billionaire Ex-Wife by Yoonworks

As soon 

as Ciara put the picture on her social media accounts, a lot of reactions were suddenly bombarded on the internet talking about it. They were now assuming who gave the flower, knowing Ciara posted a caption with “thanks, love” without mentioning who she was with. 

In just a minute, Ciara’s phone beeped. Andreus and Callum Haynes were now firing their first calls and some texts, which Ciara didn’t answer as she put her full attention on her daughter Cara, who was talking about how her day was. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

“I watched a movie with Lala and helped prepare your dessert. Mommy, we will bring Lala with us, right?” 

Ciara nodded. “Yes, sweetheart. We are bringing Lala with us.” 

“Mr. Andreus Evander is welcome in our house in Paris too, mommy. Tell him I am fine watching Disney movies with him.” 

Ciara only smiled, as she didn’t know what to say. She could feel how fond Cara was of Andreus and that she would rather welcome anyone in their lives than her own father.. 

“Have you…remember our talk during that night, Cara?” She asked. 

Cara nodded innocently. “Yes.” Her voice became low. 

“Your father was planning to talk to you, Cara. But of course, it’s up to you if you want to give him that. Maybe before we go back in Paris…” 

Cara stuffed her mouth with some food as she chewed it slowly, looking at the plate like she was trying to distract herself from the food in front of her. 

What does he want to say? Maybe he could…write it on…on a letter and then you will read it for me?” 

Ciara’s shoulder loosened. She didn’t expect Cara to be so distant that, even seeing him face-to-face, she wouldn’t 

“Don’t you want to talk to him up close?” Ciara asked. 

Cara didn’t say anything as she chewed her food slowly. She doesn’t want to have eye contact with her mother a 

“I will make sure that I am there if you want to talk to him personally, Cara. Just introduce yourself to him.” 

Cara blinks twice. “Just introduction? And he won’t live with us? 

Even though she wasn’t Callum, she was aching for him. She can’t imagine if she was on Callum’s spot, and her own daughter is treating her like a stranger and doesn’t even want to live with her. She might be breaking into pieces. 

“No, if you’re not comfortable with that, no,” 

“Then maybe I could consider it. I’m fine with it,” she said in her little voice, looking at her food like she was only agreeing because of her mother. 

Ciara smiled. “He wanted to meet you, Cara. Just tell him what you like. He would understand it. And I won’t stop you from spending time with your father, Cara” 

Cara shook her head. “I am fine without my father, mommy. I am happy without him” 

Ciara could feel how Callum would be having a hard time getting Cara’s trust, which has been shattered. 

“Then you can just let him talk to your Ciara asked. 

Cara nodded slowly. “Yes. Maybe next week? I’m going to go with Uncle Chance to Hong Kong. He said he’s taking me with

him.” 

And she was scheduling it according to her free time, huh? This is really my own attitude-the Sullivans being so untouchable that you can’t easily reach out to them. 

“Alright… 

The topic was finally shifted, as Ciara didn’t want Cara to feel uncomfortable talking about her father, though she seemed open about it, as Ciara could feel how deep Cara’s understanding of their situation was. 

They had fun together until Cara slept peacefully beside her while she was bombarded with calls again. It was from Callum 

this time. 

She sighed and answered it. 

“Yes? “She asked in her bedroom voice, trying to tone it down since she didn’t want to disturb Cara. 

“I’ve seen your posts on your social media accounts,” he opened up. 

Ciara could immediately smell what he wanted to ask, knowing that her caption would really be interpreted like she was on a date or something. 

“And what about it. stalker?” She dissed. 

“I followed you there. Of course, I would see it,” he explained. 

“Really? I didn’t know you were active on social media,” she said. 

“I am… just now.” 

Ciara rolled her eyes as the smile on her lips was now showing. 

“So… who are you with? I thought you had an interview today. You meet up with that, Andreus?” 

“You are so nosy, 

Callum.” 

“I am just asking.” he said, as the bitterness was mingling into her words. 

“Someone surprised me with a date,” she said. 

“Well, yes, I could clearly see by the set-up. So, who was it?” 

“Someone who hates you,” she said. 

She could feel that Callum was wondering who it was 

“Your daughter, Callum,” she added. 

She heard him sigh, and she didn’t know whether he was relieved by it or if he was in deep torment because it was his daughter who hated him. 

“What a cute little girl… surprising her mommy s 

“We talked about you” 

a dinner,” he said, chuckling a bit despite the pain mingling with it. 

“Yeah? What did she say: “He sounded so excited and hopeful. 

“Well, Cara is letting you meet her. To talk to her. But she’s scheduling it next week.” 

A 

“Next week. Wow. My princess seems busy, huh?” 

“I didn’t expect she would plan it out too. But she agreed just to talk to you. Though she wanted it through a letter, I think it is better for the both of you to talk in person.” 

“A letter? And you were saying she was my little me when she got your coldness?” 

“I’m shocked too, Callum. I didn’t expect her to have this side to her. She seems too cold and distant.” 

“Like you,” he added. 

She didn’t make a comment about it because she doesn’t really think she’s that distant and cold, but most of the impression with her is that she is indeed distant and cold. 

“Does she have any favorites that I could give to her?” He asked. 

“She likes rabbit-stuffed toys. She has her own rabbit stuff toy that I gave her, and she couldn’t sleep without it.” 

“Alright,” he said wearily. 

Ciara quite empathized with Callum. Because if she were in his shoes, she might collapse right away if Cara treated her differently. She cannot imagine her life without Cara. 

Callum knew that it was his fault for not being with them during those times because he chose to defend someone instead of standing with his wife. He couldn’t blame his own daughter either, because he was regretting what he did as well. 

Despite the heartbreak she felt from the past, she wanted to do Callum a favor for their daughter, at least. She wasn’t fully closing his responsibility and rights to be with his daughter, which she would allow, but she didn’t expect Cara would be the problem. 

On the next day, Ciara was already busy talking with the engineers and contractors about her plan to build her own brand in 

Paris 

“I will send the blueprint to you next week, Miss Ciara,” the architect said after an hour of explaining to them the details her interior design and the theme she wanted. 

“Her sales are increasing these days. She’s hitting the market so fast. It seems like the public is so obsessed with her that the were immediately consuming her products as her newly released scents were immediately sold out,” the man explained in front of the Sullivans, together with the Wilson, as they gathered for a meeting. 

“Callum. You know this woman, right?” Mr. Haynes asked. 

“That was his ex-wife,” Mrs. Haynes said, looking at her son meaningfully as well. 

“Then… this was supposed to be easy for you. Have you contactell her? You should keep her by your side,” Mr. Haynes said, looking at his son meaningfully, 

“I am doing it at the moment, Dad,” Callum said.” 

Mrs. Haynes smiled. “See? Trust your son on this, Cassius. He can handle this alone! 

“I hope you think about what that woman did to my daughter, Cillum. They should be put in their place,” Mr. Wilson said with a dark expression. 

“We have the upper hand right now. Imagine the downfall of the Sullivan family if the dirt of their daughter were exposed. She would be canceled right away, and she would drag her clan’s image on this too.” Mrs, Wilson arched her brow cunningly. 

“Let’s prolong it for a while. We will strike them without notice. Something they won’t expect,” Mr. Haynes suggested.

AM. 

“Well, that woman is probably head over heels for Callum. If it came from someone she didn’t expect to strike her, it might be successful. We might have our way to the top this time…. crushing the Sullivans.” Mrs. Haynes smiled at Callum. 

Callum remained silent, and was in a deep state of thinking, as he looked so serious and intimidating, planning out the best strategy for his next move.
