Ex-husband wants me back novel

Chapter 636 Chapter 636 090 +25 Bonus "Cale." Lydia's voice softened, almost a whisper. The room was spacious, too spacious to simply be called a hotel suite. Floor-to-ceiling glass walls revealed a sweeping view of Berlin's city center from above, the lights beginning to glow like fallen stars scattered across the earth. But that wasn't all. Rose petals were arranged carefully across parts of the room. A small table near the window was decorated with scented candles. Several bottles of fine wine were set out, untouched.

And the large bed at the center of the room looked almost too perfect, its arrangement unmistakably deliberate. It wasn't just luxurious. It was intimate. Intentionally so. As if whoever had prepared it knew that the people staying here would need more than just a place to rest. Lydia stepped inside slowly, her gaze moving from one detail to another-until it finally settled on the bed. "This..." she turned, still a little in disbelief. "You... arranged all of this?" Cale stepped fully inside now, closing the door behind them.

His gaze swept across the room, catching details Lydia hadn't even noticed yet. And for a fraction of a second-he was surprised too. But it disappeared just as quickly. "Who do you think gave us this 'gift'?" he replied calmly. Lydia narrowed her eyes, then let out a soft laugh. "Oh my God. I know, but... this is-" "Too much?" Cale finished, strolling toward her. When the distance between them shrank to mere inches, he rested his forehead lightly against her shoulder. "We're on our honeymoon. And I think this is the best thing Althea could've given us. So...

let's just enjoy it." "Yes, but this..." Lydia gestured toward the decorations. "It's very... specific." Cale didn't answer right away. But in his mind, he could already guess exactly where Althea's intentions were headed-hoping little Chase would have a companion soon. Remarkable. The way she planned everything so thoroughly. The thought alone tugged faintly at the corner of his lips. Barely noticeable. "Think of it as a bonus," he said at last. Lydia exhaled softly, then laughed under her breath, half surrendering.

"I should thank her later." 1/4 Chapter 636 400 +25 Bonus "You can do that after we get back," Cale replied easily. He let her go when she shifted restlessly in his hold. Lydia walked toward the large window, pressing her palm lightly against the cool glass. Her gaze softened again as she took in the city stretching wide beneath them. "It's beautiful," she murmured. Cale stood a short distance behind her, watching in silence. This time, it wasn't just Lydia's reaction that caught his attention... but how everything about this felt almost too perfect-for something he hadn't planned himself.

Still, he said nothing. A few seconds later, Lydia let out a long breath. Her shoulders dropped, the tension slowly leaving her body. Then, without warning, she turned, walked to the bed... and simply dropped onto it in exhaustion. "I give up." Cale raised a brow. "We just got here." "I didn't get enough sleep," Lydia replied, not even opening her eyes, her voice softer now. "And my body is still protesting." "Protesting?" Cale echoed, stepping closer. Lydia cracked her eyes open, shooting him a flat look. "Don't start." Cale chuckled under his breath.

"I haven't done anything." "That's exactly the problem," Lydia muttered. "You always look like you're about to do something." "And you always complain." "Of course I do, I'm the one who must deal with the consequences." Cale stopped at the edge of the bed and sat down slowly. His hand reached out, brushing her slightly tousled hair back into place-a small gesture, almost absentminded, yet far too gentle for someone like him. "Just sleep," he said quietly, Lydia let out a long breath.

"Don't disturb me." "I can't promise that." Her eyes opened again, narrowing at him despite the exhaustion weighing her down. "Cale," That tone was enough of a warning. Cale smiled faintly. "Alright." This time, Lydia closed her eyes without hesitation. Her body relaxed, her breathing gradually evening out. Within minutes, she was asleep-too worn out to fight it any longer. 2/4 Chooter 605 +25 Bonus The room fell silent. Cale remained seated for a moment, watching her face-peaceful now, far from the expressive, emotional woman she usually was.

His hand lingered in her hair for a second longer... before he finally pulled away. He stood. His steps were quiet, nearly soundless, as he walked toward the window. Berlin stretched out beneath him, fully alive now-lights shimmering, streets in constant motion. Cale took out his phone. He stared at the screen for a few seconds, then tapped a contact. The call connected. "Liu." The voice on the other end responded immediately. "Yes, Mr. Cale." Cale didn't waste time. "I want you to investigate something." His tone shifted-cold, firm, edged with something sharper. More dangerous.

His gaze remained on the city outside, but his mind had already returned to the airport to the symbol that should not have existed anymore. "What is it about, Mr. Cale?" "Black Serpent." Silence. A long one. "You heard me?" "Of course, Mr. Cale. I wouldn't dare ignore you." There was unease in Liu's voice now tight, controlled, but unmistakable. "You're surprised?" "Yes," Liu admitted. "How can you bring that up... after all this time?" Cale let out a quiet laugh. "I just saw it." He paused deliberately, needing a moment to be certain-because what he'd seen couldn't just be coincidence.

"Where did you see it, sir?" "In Berlin," Cale replied shortly. "A girl who bumped into me at the airport," he continued, voice low. "She was wearing that symbol, Liu." Silence again. 3/4 Chapter 636 +25 Bonus "Find out if it's true," Cale said, his voice dropping further. "If they're still alive." "Yes, Mr. Cale. I'll look into it immediately." Cale exhaled slowly. The brilliance of Berlin's lights meant nothing compared to the storm forming in his mind. The past he had believed buried-left behind without a trace-was beginning to surface again.

Along with a promise he had never been able to forget. "I'm giving you three days, Liu," Cale said, his tone final. "Make sure I get a satisfying answer." BIG SALE: 3500 bonus free fou you admin
