Running After my Secret Billionaire Ex-Wife by Yoonworks

Chapter 46 

Cara didn’t hesitate to shake her head like her decision had been final since day one. Ciara tried to see her face just to make sure that she wasn’t sleeping, but despite closing her eyes, it seemed like Cara was wide awake in her mind and was paying. attention to her mother. 

“May I know why?” she asked. 

“He made you cry. I don’t want to,” she explained carefully. 

Though Ciara has thought Cara about forgiveness, seems like her own daughter has her own understanding as well and her own decision that she would stand with it no matter what, like it was what she sees as something she shouldn’t tolerate if she doesn’t want to see happening it again. 

“You won’t give him a chance? What if he’s really sorry and he promises he won’t do it again?” she bargained, hopeful that her daughter has reserved a special space in her heart for her father. 

She was silent for a minute, which Ciara let her as she might be contemplating her answer. 

“There are days that the people we love will make us cry because they hurt us. If they did it once, apologized for it, and told us that they won’t do it again, if we feel like they were sincere and they deserve a second chance, we must give it to them. But that second chance should not be taken for granted. That second chance might be treated like the last,” she explained. 

“I don’t like people who hurt my mommy, who make my mommy cry, Cara said in her little voice. 

“Cara, your father has hurt me, but I hurt him in some ways too. I haven’t apologized for it yet, and he already apologized for the things he had done in the past. I lied… I made him believe something that wasn’t really true which made a conflict between us. 

“But he has a girlfriend already. Auntie Serra told me that having a girlfriend means you are already taken and you should. not entertain anymore because it would be called cheating and you would make your partner cry. Mommy, you told m we should not give chances no matter who they were if they hurt us deeply. If they did something that is too painful forgive. I don’t think…I could ever forgive Daddy because..he made you cry.” 

The last sentence broke her, but at the same time, slowly healed the wound that had been tormenting her for too long. 

She might be too weak to easily forgive Callum after what happened in the past, but there was Cara, her daughter who is strength and is just too hard at forgiving when it comes to her mother’s sake. 

“Your father and L…we…we are starting to work things out. He told me he would just take care of some things, and then..he would live with us. Or he would visit us in Paris. And of course, He would earn Cara’s forgiveness too, like he’s been doing to Mommy. Are you okay with that?” 

Cara paused for a while, and it seemed like she was deeply thinking about it. 

“But he he has a girlfriend. His girlfriend is his fiancee. Someone he wanted to marry,” she whispered like she knew a lot of things that she was holding on to, the reason why she doesn’t like her father. 

“He doesn’t have one, sweetheart. Not everything on the media is true.” 

“What if he’s lying?” 

“Then I won’t forgive him anymore.” 

Cara silently processed everything as Ciara gave her some time to digest it slowly by slowly. She’s just five, but Ciara is a smart kid and she easily catches even on adult’s conversation, especially when it comes to her mommy. 

“If…if he makes my mommy happy, then he makes Cara happy. But I am not gonna go easy on daddy, mommy. I will guard

my mommy,” she said with full of assurance.

Ciara chuckled and squeezed her. She kissed the tip of her head and closed her eyes while the smile lingered on her lips, feeling at ease that she had Cara who would always be there for her. 

“You’d protect mommy?” she asked softly, delighted by it. 

“Yes, mommy. From everyone else… 

Ciara chuckled. “I should be the one saying that to you, sweetheart.” 

“Don’t worry about me, mommy. I can take care of myself. You’ve been through a lot. And I am here now. I will do anything for you, Mommy.” 

She was melting by the words she said that the smile on her lips didn’t vanish. 

“Then I have my own soldier? What a cute little soldier. I thought you were a Disney princess?” she chuckled and tickled her a bit. 

Cara laughed while moving with the tickle as she caught her mother’s hand. 

“I am a Disney princess and a soldier at the same time, mommy 

“Oh! What an amazing little girl you are! You could be a soldier too!” 

They spent the rest of the night giggling in the bed until on the next day, Ciara was bombarded with news about her that she was seen having dinner with Andreus Evander, which drew massive speculations to the public whether they were dating or 

not. 

Some of the people on the internet claimed that they might be working on collaboration since they both have the same brand that has similarities which were now compared on the internet. 

But of course, there were still those who noticed how it was posted publicly and wasn’t banned compared to that scene that happened at the event and Ciara being linked to Callum Haynes which some were leaving some speculations the two meeting up might just be the cover of Callum Haynes and Ciara Sullivan dating in secret, 

Ciara allowed it to be posted publicly, including Gwen who was the mastermind as well, for a public exposure of her brand, and for people to be more curious. It was a marketing psychology trick to pull their attention while adding some love interest issues when the main point of it was to promote the brand. 

“Oh wow. The most talked about woman on the internet right now, pulling the finest men in the business industry,” Serral teased as she showed up while Ciara was in her office and busy with her business. 

Ciara only looked at her once as she occupied the seat at the front and smirked at her. 

“I know that you and Andreus were seeing for only pure business. But I want to personally hear it from your mouth. Just pure business or you are now considering other men aside from Callum Haynes?” she asked as she leaned against the seat without taking her eyes off Ciara. 

“Just pure business, Serra. I could learn from him since he started like me too.” 

“Really? No sex involved? That’s so lame.” She wrinkled her nose 

“Why would I sleep with him, Serra?” 

“Because he’s hot and he’s not Callum Haynes! Andreus Evander has been keeping his image clean since day one in front of the public, though I know most of his sexcapades, but Ciara, you are single too! Like him! You should enjoy it!” 

didn’t answer her sister as her phone beeped twice and the text messages from different persons started popping out

Ciara could almost smell the bitter remark on Callum’s text that she wanted to grimace about it but kept her poker face as she continued reviewing Gwen’s proposal who would handle the construction of her brand in Paris. She took the finest Engineer, which is also close to the Sullivans, and showed some nice blueprints for the future design proposed by the finest architects as well. 

“Ciara, you should enjoy your freedom. I know that you were thinking of giving Callum a chance, but don’t dwell on it too much. Open yourself to someone else too. Don’t make him as your world- 

“We fucked. Last night,” she interjected. 

Serra stopped for a while, as her jaw dropped. 

“With Andreus!” she reacted violently. 

Ciara looked at Serra, and the way she gave her a meaningful look made Serra’s eyes widen even more, as she seat almost dropping her jaw on the floor. 

“With Callum Haynes?” 

Ciara sighed. “I am giving him a chance to prove himself- 

“To prove how he would do you hard in bed is that what kind of chance you gave to him?!” she cut her off. 

Cura licked her lips as she stared at the screen of her laptop, unable to put what was on her mind into words. 

stood on her 

“Oh my god, Ciara! I know he’s Callum Haynes, a good fuck you should not even miss, but you are slowly falling into him again! You are making him your world again!” she snapped, her eyes leering at her sister warningly,
