Chasing My Ex-wife Back by Symplyayisha Chapter 40
Chapter 40
One Week Later.
After searching for her mother everywhere, Vanessa finally found her mother in the garden, seated and flipping through a magazine, over a glass of wine.
“There you are! I thought you went out.” Vanessa said, approaching Connie, and taking a seat beside her.
“Not yet. What is it? You look grumpy.” Connie put the magazine aside, turning her attention to her daughter.
I’m worried.” Vanessa started to say, fiddling with her hands.
“About what?”
Today makes it one week since I posted about the baby on my socials. I have not heard a word from Cole. He hasn’t reached out to me nor did he like my post, admit or retract it. His silence worries me so much.”
–
I have a Doctor’s appointment this week. I want him to come with me but I don’t know how to tell him. I doubt if he is going to pick up my calls and I don’t know if I am ready to face him physically. Plus Dad still insists that I stay away from him.”
“I would have preferred that he reacted. His silence confuses me so much.”
“Oh, you are just overthinking.”
“Didn’t you see how the news of this baby went viral? It was as though this baby was the joy the world had been waiting for. There is no way Cole would be able to deny you all after that. Not after that many Congratulations.”
“He is probably shy and doesn’t know how to approach you. You should go see him and tell him about the Doctor’s appointment.”
“Now?”
“I think you should see him in the office where he cannot deny you access.”
Vanessa nodded. “I would go get my car keys. See you later, Mom.” She kissed Connie on the cheek after which she took her leave.
Cole snapped out of his thoughts when a knock came through on the door.
“Come in.” He answered, not looking up from his laptop.
The door opened. The person stepped in and shut the door.
“Have you gotten any response from Hayes and Co?” Cole said, looking up, only to come face to face with Vanessa.
He frowned. “What are you doing here?” At that moment, it dawned on him that he hadn’t kept measures in place not to allow Vanessa anywhere near his office.
“Ca…can we talk?” She tried not to get nervous.

“I have nothing to talk to you about Take your leave before I do something that we both regret
Please she pushed
Stay the hell away from me, Cole said at the top of his voice.
Twon’t take too truch of your time.” Vanessa mumbled. She took slow steps towards Cole’s table ignoring his glare. She sat one visitor y chair opposite his desk.
“You look terrible” Vanessa voiced out and she wasn’t even capping. Anyone who knew Cole Matthis knew he abworys looked good. But now he had bags under his eyes, he looked sleep deprived and his hair was all over the place
“My doctor’s appointment is tomorrow”
“Please tell me you are dying so I can actually have some peace.”
“Do do you really wish me dead” Vanessa said, trying to stop her eyes from feeling itchy with tears.
Yes. In fact, that is the best gift God could give me right now so I can finally have some peace.”
“Well, that’s sad because I am not dying. It’s a Doctor’s appointment for our baby.”
“You have to be there.
Cole said nothing, staring at Vanessa
Your child has a father Go meet him,”
“You are the father. Cole. We had sex the other night when you were drunk. I know this is unexpected for us but I need you to be there for me.
“Oh please shut that trap. You’ve got the Congratulations of your fans and the internet. That should keep you going, right?”
“Please don’t use that against me, Cole. What happened that day was very traumatic. You almost choked me to death. I was feeling so low and making that post and receiving so much love from it felt like the right thing to do. calmed me and assured me that I wasn’t worthless.”
The beautiful prayers under the post got to me the most. People wished us well and they are excited to see our wedding pictures.
“We are good together. Cole. Please don’t give up on us.”
“We will have a DNA test done when the baby is born. Just so we can confirm that you are the father, I have never cheated on you, Cole.” She sniffled.
“Are you done with your speech?
She shook her head. “Come with me tomorrow, please.”
“I’ve got better things to do.”
“Come on, Cole. What could be more important than your family?”

Chapter 40
“I’m no fool, Vanessa. The fact that I am being gentle with you doesn’t mean I’ve got no good sense of reasoning know what to do to disgrace you about the lies you posted on your page the other day. My silence doesn’t mean 1 am into you. It is because I chose my peace of mind over your lies”
“Get out of my office or I will have the securities throw you out.”
“Please don’t treat me that way. I love you, Cole. Let’s make our relationship work.
Cole said nothing. He turned his attention to his laptop, typing away.
“Are you treating me like this because of Hailey? You want to give up me and your child. What’s so damn special about her?”
Having heard enough, Cole picked up his phone on the desk beside him and typed for a while.
Vanessa could sense what he just did. For someone who recently posted on social media as though her life was perfect, the last thing she wanted was for people to see the security walking her out of Cole’s office.
She rose to her feet, picking up her handbag from his desk. This isn’t over!” She glared at Cole before storming out of his office.
Almost immediately, Cole’s assistant, Laurel, came in, standing not too far from the door.
“Inform all the securities not to ever allow Vanessa into this building”
“Miss Vanessa?” Laurel asked, shocked.
Cole glared at her.
“Okay, sir. I will inform the securities.”
“Did you hear back from the pilot?”
Yes, sir. The jet will be ready for departure at 11 pm.”
