Running After my Secret Billionaire Ex-Wife by Yoonworks

Chapter 90 

As Ciara and Callum were basically some names that were prominent within the business world, the moment that their feet stepped into the airport and landed back in the country, many people from the media were able to get a sniff of their arrival. But of course, even if Ciara didn’t tell Gwen that they would be back, it was very easy for Gwen to realize that they were coming from the moment that Ciara and her family hopped in the car in Paris and headed to the airport. 

Before the news hit the internet, Gwen and the security team were already able to make a move and stop every article from being released, but she couldn’t stop the news from going around in the elite world. 

By this time, everyone who knew about the Sullivans and the Haynes knew that the two people from the most powerful clan just come back to the country. And that news was more than enough to shake the leaders of every company there is. 

What is the meaning of this? Why are they back? 

Ciara had been known as a very scary competitor despite being a CEO for only a short period of time. Even after she stayed in Paris, her brand had accumulated a very strong peak and stance within the business world. And that’s a feat that couldn’t be easily achieved. 

Though she became the face of the Sullivan company for only a short period of time, her presence posed a huge risk and fear to every young leader in the corporate world. 

And Callum Haynes, another household name in the business world. The news about him stepping down as the company CEO posed so many questions to so many people. Ever since Callum led the Haynes Corporation, they have been the only company that was able to rival the Sullivans very closely. 

But not after the incident with the Wilsons 

It was kept in the dark. The news wasn’t fully disclosed but some powerful people knew that something big had happened that made the Sullivans so angry. And they didn’t even hide it. They made sure everyone knows that the most powerful can there was so  mad like they were sending signals, warning to remember who they are, that they are not some people to be messed around with. 

“Wow, you actually made some grand entrance right there, huh? Just so you know, you made Gwen’s day a little too difficult today with all the work she had to do to make sure news about your arrival was controlled,” 

Ciara almost scoffed at what Serra had said. Her eyes landed on Cara’s direction who was hugging her grandparents with Chance having to mess around with her because he just misses her so much despite having the chance to always visit them in Paris as well. 

“The media didn’t have to cover our arrival. It’s not like we were celebrities,” she answered and Serra laughed. 

*Baby sis, in case you didn’t know, there are a lot of people that call you the ‘Princess of the business world, if not the queen. You amassed such a huge number of admirers and fans that you are basically considered a celebrity at this point. It didn’t even matter that you were out of the scene for so many years. That’s just how much impact you have left, okay?” 

Chance, who was just playing with Cara earlier, chuckled as he was able to hear the words Serra had said. 

“As much as what Serra had said was so funny and absurd to me, I actually heard those too. I feel like if you didn’t leave some years ago, I’m sure some companies would reach out to you so you would be an actress as well,” 

Ciara laughed with her siblings. Louis was not around because he was still in the company. 

As they had calmed down with the pleasantries, Chance sat on the opposite couch where she and Serra were sitting. After their arrival, Cara and she went straight to her parents‘ house. Callum drove them there but they agreed that he go home first to meet his family while she talks to her family first. 

Callum wanted to greet her family but eventually, he understood that they just arrived and the life they left here wasn’t necessarily pleasant to begin with. They both know that they need to take a breath before starting things around. 

“So.. I guess you two are really back together, huh?” Chance asked. There was something in his expression that Ciara couldn’t decipher. But most importantly, she knows that this is one of those rare chances where he was serious. 

Serra didn’t even react to Chance’s question as if she was a bit scared to actually stop Chance whatever it was that he wanted to say.. Ciara looked at her daughter first who was busy talking to her grandparents before she turned her attention back to her siblings. She bit her lower lip and was a bit nervous. She knows that her family has always been supportive of her decisions ever since. They were not the type to control her. In fact, out of everyone, she had the most freedom as the youngest. They let her do anything she wanted and even didn’t meddle when she got married in secret. 

That’s how her life had been with her family. But she also knew that after what happened to her, things had already shifted and she

couldn’t blame them for being a little concerned for her wellbeing 

“It’s been four years.” she started, trying to find the right words. 

“Four years isn’t that long to me, Ciara. I still could vividly remember your state back then, and I promised myself I would never see you like that ever not you, not Serra, not anyone in this family ever,” he meaningfully said and Ciara could feel her stomach churn with his words. 

Out of everyone in their family, Chance had always been the cheeky and playful one. He was never serious and just played around a lot. 5o. seeing him like this makes Ciara a bit nervous. He is her older brother after all. 

“I know. And I promise it won’t happen again. Shane won’t ever be able to come close to me, right? You won’t let that happen.” 

Ciara bit her lower lip because this was the first time that she felt so nervous when talking to her siblings. 

Chance sighs. “You shouldn’t worry about me. Worry about Louis. He was just not pleased about everything and for sure, Callum is aware by now,” 

That, she was aware. And that was actually one of the reasons why she wanted them to come back. She doesn’t want her family to do things because of her. 

She doesn’t want them to be ruthless for her. They weren’t like that and she won’t allow them to be like that all for her sake. 

“I’m fine now, Chance. Or maybe I am indeed still in the process of healing but how can I move forward if I will stay in the past?” she stated 

A 

ong sigh escaped Chance’s lips. 

“I appreciate all of your kindness. Tappreciate the fact that you all try your best to check on me every time. I don’t think I would have wwwved the past years without your guidance But I think I am ready to move forward now. I want to start over and do things right.” 

There were so many things that had been going on her mind. But this is a decision she needed to make and she will stand by it. 

“I wasted so many years already. Cara is almost ten and she understands so much. Do you know she and her father survived these years by only exchanging letters? They were that patient and there was a part in me that felt so bail because I realized that everyone had to adjust for my comfort. Though I didn’t wish for it to happen but u looked like my pain was the only thing that mattered to this family for the past few years. And I want that to stop for now, 

Serra and Chance didn’t talk. She knows and understand where they are coming from and she doesn’t want to undermine their emotion. But this is something that she really needed to do for her own family. 

By the evening Cara and Cura were already preparing themselves so they could go to bed. 

Cara just finished showering and Ciara felt so proud because Cara had really matured so well. She could take care of herself now and had always tried to do things on her own for her own growth. 

She was helping Cara dry her hair with a hair dryer while Cara was humming to one of her favorite songs, 

“Are you happy” she asked and Cara nodded enthusiastically Her eyes were shining and Ciara couldn’t help but feel happy that her daughter was looking so happy as well. 

Now, she could happily say that going home was the best decision she ever made. She had expected that not everyone would be as accepting of her decision immediately but she knew that eventually, things would fall into the right place. 

“Mommy? Cara spoke and Cura hummed as she brushed her hair. 

“I am happy that we are back here. I like Pans but I also missed everyone even Lalat And Mommy, I want to meet Daddy’s family too! Daddy said he would let me meet my other grandparents” 

Ciara smiled at that. Just knowing that Cara is happy was more than enough. 

“Daddy told me so many things about them and he said they want to see me. Can I visit thein, mominy?” Cara’s eyes were shining, as if just thinking about her father’s parents made her so happy. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

She nodded and chuckled as well 

Callum and her never really got to meet them formally. Their relationship had started so messed up. And after what happened to her with Shane, she knew things weren’t that easy. 

The two of them lay down on the bed and Cara hugged her so tight.

“Mommy, I am so used to sleeping between you and Daddy that I already miss him so much!” 

She kissed the top of Cara’s head and whispered, “I miss you daddy too,”
