Billionaire Ascendancy

Her ex husband

Authors POV

Even though she really wants to show Ava that she can’t do anything, she doesn’t think of going back to him again. Not after he had lied to her. How could she think of going back to her Ex husband again? Would her family even be in support of this? Thinking about this was just making her go crazy and how Stefan thought that he could make her fall in love with him and later revealed himself to her since by then she would have fallen for him and won’t be able to leave him. It was such a stupid decision for him to do this to her.

“you’re quite funny Ava. But even though I want to stay with him after knowing the truth I know you can’t do anything so just stop blabbering your mouth on what you can’t do. I will be leaving him just like you’ve expected, not because of the fact that you threaten me but because of the fact that he lied to me and I can’t keep up with someone like him. He’s also a womanizer so I do hope you will be able to keep up with his characters when you have everything in your way”.

Ava was satisfied to hear such words from her. “Seems like you’ve sense after all”. Sharon complimented her for making a good decision.

“I will stop him from Such acts, Raven. He can’t womanize in front of me and that includes him staying away from Sharon who turns out to be his side chick”. Ava gives Sharon a dangerous look as she keeps her mouth muttered, unable to say a word Because she feels so embarrassed by what Ava just says to her.

“You’ve finally made a good decision Raven and I’m very proud of that. They’re lots of men out there who will love to marry a beautiful lady like you. So, an agreement is an agreement. I do hope that from today onwards, I won’t see you anyway around him'”. Ava called one of her men to drive her home.

“So this is where our plans End huh?” Sharon decided to let out her frustration on Ava since Raven was gone because she wouldn’t want her to mock her. “Of course. We’re done with our cooperation and our plans. Thank you so much for letting me know of his true identity Sharon. I really appreciate your help for that because I wouldn’t have imagined what would happen if I didn’t get to know this on time”. Sharon scoffs on hearing her words and how funny she really sounds right now. “If I had known this would turn out to be this way I wouldn’t have helped you Ava”. Sharon storms out of her in Angers. not wanting to hear any words from her because eventually if Stefan called her again she would definitely go to meet him.

They dropped Raven down at her house as she began to cry out her eyes. Presh, who had noticed the sobbing sound from her, walked up to her and confronted her. “Please stop crying, okay. What is the problem? Did Ava send someone to harass you or do you have a fight with your boss at the company?”

Presh questions her as she nodded her head. “I’m really so disappointed, Presh. You won’t understand how I’m feeling right now. I just feel like something has left my body. All my life I had never thought that he could disguise Himself from me but here’s it. There was even proverb that says *don’t trust men* and I end up trusting him. Hoping he was different from them but what I didn’t know was that I was dealing with the same person”. Raven cried out her eyes as Presh confronted her by petting her back.

Stefan was devastated when he received the news from Wilfred that they were stopped by some bandit who later took Raven’s away.

On his way to drive to the place and track them down he had been calling Ava since this might likely be her work but her line was switched off. Raven on the other hand wasn’t taking her call but her phone was ringing. Searching all over for her, he was planning to make an attempt to involve the police in this case when he called Raven and she picked the call. “Where are you now? What happened? Who kidnapped you? Was it Ava? He questions her with a worried tone as she takes a deep breath.

“Calm down Stefan. Nothing happened to me. I’m at home. What do you want?” She called out his name, trying to let him know that she had finally figured out the truth. But Stefan wasn’t bothered with the name which she had called him.. He thought maybe she could have mistaken the name since she was familiar with it.

“Please where are you right now? Can I come and see you? I want to know how you’re doing now. Please tell me where you are so that I can come and pick you up”. Even as much as he tries believing her words but he couldn’t believe the fact that she was saved.

What if this was the words Ava had told her to say. “Listen to me babe. Please stop being scared of whoever that’s with you right now. I’m sure someone is threatening you to keep quiet and never says a word but I’m assuring you to speak up and tell me your location”. Raven Scoffed on hearing his words which sounded so funny to her.

She couldn’t believe that he was pretending to care for her. “quit the act and just listen to me. I said I’m fine. I’m currently in the house right now so you don’t have to worry about me”…!!ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

she’s fine sir”. Presh let out words audible enough for him to hear since he doesn’t seem convinced that she was fine. “if what you’re saying is true right now then I’m coming to your place”. He said and before Raven could utter a word, he ended the call. “I don’t want to see him. I don’t wish to see him either Presh. If he comes, please tell him that I’m not at home and that I just left”. Preshy pulled her down the moment she planned standing up.

“Come on, take a seat. Do you think running away from him will make your mind calm down? No! You’re really angry right now and you have many questions and doubts that need answers. I will advise you to say whatever that’s on your mind to him first. You have lots of questions to ask him don’t you? Do that the moment he come”. Ravens put presh ‘s words into consideration and decide to do it by waiting patiently for him.

Not so sure about Raven’s words, Stefan gives Ava a call since he needs to hear some words from her and she picks up immediately which makes him suspicious. “Who’s this please?” Ava questions him over the phone on knowing who he was as he bursts into laughter.

“Don’t you know me? I am Raven’s fiancee, the man you met the last time you tried to harass Raven in front of me”. Ava pretended like someone who had remembered what he had said. “If that’s right then how do you have my number? I don’t really remember Giving you my number so who did that? Stefan knows he needs to go straight to the point right now instead of trying to exchange words with her when he doesn’t even have time. “I know what you did Ava. Just tell me the truth. Where’s Raven? Hearing his questions, she burst into laughter.

“I’m sorry but what did you just say?” Ava was a bit worried that Raven hadn’t gotten home. Maybe she should give her a call to know where she was. “I know what you did Ava. You sent someone to kidnap my babe didn’t you? Tell me what do you want? Is it money or what? Just tell me anything and I will give that to you”. Stefan hates having This type of conversation with her since he knew that sometimes she can be a Beast and monster.

“I have no idea what you’re talking about, young man! Like I don’t really get. How could you call me and start accusing me of kidnapping your girlfriend? What do you think I want to use her for? Maybe you should try calling to know her whereabouts. Please don’t call me to ask this again because I might report this case to the police”.

Ava ended the call quickly before he could say anything. Frustrated, he came down from his car with an apprehension running down his Body as he hoped he would see Raven and hope this wasn’t a prank played by any of them.

The moment he opened the door, he saw Raven standing at the door, patiently waiting for him with Presh who was sitting down. He was about to hug her when she withdrew herself from him immediately. “Please don’t. You’re not here for that and I’m not an object you can play with”.
