Running After my Secret Billionaire Ex-Wife by Yoonworks

“I’m sorry for what Daddy did, Mommy, Cara said, apologizing on behalf of her father while they were now seated on the private jet on the way to Paris 

Ciara was touched by how Cara apologized for her father when she shouldn’t have to because it had nothing to do with her. 

Though the filing of the case against Callum wasn’t pushed through because of the evidence presented, he has proven himself not guilty. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

For Clara, Callum still plays a big role in what happened to her. Shane got her way with her by using Callum as the bridge to hurt her, which led to the death of their baby. 

Her anger for them was already so much that she thought she could never forgive them for what they had done to her, most especially to her baby. 

Because of them, she needed to undergo therapy because of the severe trauma they left to her. She can’t manage to sleep now, afraid that they will come back to her and repeat what they did to her that night. 

Cara has been a patient kid, understanding that her mother is not well and she would see her breaking down from time to time. But instead of getting scared, she bravely stayed by her mother’s side and consoled her, saying that she would never leave her and that she would always be there for her mother. 

It was the toughest battle for Ciara. She needed to face her fear–to deal with the trauma on her own and to fight the darkness that was luring her into the gutter, as she didn’t want to leave her daughter behind and even her family, who were rooting for her, knew that she could do it. 

What happened to her took a drastic turn in her life. She was suffering mentally because of the traumatizing experience that involved the only man whom she loved. 

But then, she was now completely letting go of the idea that she could have Callum peacefully. She doesn’t want to dwell on those kinds of daydreams anymore because she knows that it was a complete nightmare to have him back in her life. 

And she’s slowly embracing the changes again. This time, she was completely sure that she didn’t want him back because if she did, it would only cause her sanity. 

The ongoing construction of her brand in Paris takes place. Other than that, her family decided to withdraw her position in the company as they did not want Ciara to continue ruling it because of how dangerous it was for her, and they did not want to cause more trauma for Ciara. 

The Sullivans were ruthlessly closing deals and partnering with the big clients that swallowed their competitors wholly as they were striking back for what the Wilsons did to Clara. 

Clara has completely cut off connections with Callum, as she stands by her words that she doesn’t want him anymore. Though she knew that he wasn’t part of it now, the fact that his name was written on the paper made it just too hard to ignore that he was part of it. He was the core reason why Shane had been so envious of Ciara and why she was so desperate to hurt her. 

Clara became more private with her daughter in Paris as they went back to their old life with maximum security to ensure that no danger would happen. 

Clara focused on building her own brand and working with trusted clients to boost her own name in the business industry. Despite not using her privilege as a Sullivan, she successfully ruled her own brand with a massive hit sale because of the way she marketed it through women’s rights, which speaks for women who’ve been too afraid that they would be eaten alive by predators out there. 

She was now campaigning against victims as she wanted to be a good example of those women who became victims of  harassment like her and to raise awareness about the underlying issue of society and how women have been easily targeted. 

After years of working on and focusing on her growth, there were still nights when she would cry for her lost baby and remember the dark past that had scarred her deeply. 

“This way, Ms. Sullivan, the staff guided her to her seat on the occasion of a fund–raising event she attended, at which she became one of the outstanding clients who’s been donating a large amount of money to children in orphanages. 

She took a seat as there were media who even took photos of her while she was in her black dress and her hair was hig 

ir was high and ponytailed. 

Ciara noticed the empty seat beside her, but what caught her attention was the surname of someone familiar that she had tried to forget for how many years now? 

was already too late to react because the moment she wanted to call the staff, sise saw him being guided her way until they locked. 

12:49 PM 3 

gazes.. 

She saw the shock in his eyes as if he didn’t expect she would also be there. Her jaw clenched as she wanted to stand so badly and just change seats, but then Callum said something to the woman who was arranging their seat. She nodded and decided to switch his seat 

with someone else. 

And Clara noticed so well how Callum went to the end of the table, where he was now away from her, as he fixed his coat and took a seat without glancing at Ciara. 

She calmed down a bit as she tried to relax and didn’t want to show him that she was bothered by his presence too. But if only she could walk out, she would probably have done it by now. 

He’s donating to this orphanage too. Since when is he fond of…kids? 

She wanted to think that they had the same reason for donating to the orphanage, but she didn’t want to conclude things. She doesn’t want to think about anything related to Callum Haynes.. 

But then she heard the news that during those times she filed a case against them, Callum had been rumored to have stepped down from their company’s position as he was no longer part of Haynes Corp. 

Though Ciara doesn’t care what shit has he been doing at that time, the only thing that matters to her is to seek justice for what happened to her and her baby. To see him again after many years brings back a lot of memories from the past. 

She remembered how she would talk about Callum with her therapist, not because she missed him but because he was part of her process to help herself heal without bringing any baggage from the past so she could start over again. 

It was hard for her. During those times, as she spoke more about Callum, her therapist’s words awakened something in her that had been carved in her mind for a long time now, 

As the event started, she could see him in her peripheral vision, who was seriously paying attention to the program too. He wasn’t glancing at her, and she wasn’t glancing at him as well. They were like strangers in a sea of people who never knew each other. 

Ciara knew that Shane was still jailed or put in a rehabilitation center for her mental health problems as she was paying for her sins, but she was paranoid sometimes that she would escape and crawl back into her life again every now and then. 

“Thank you for coming, Miss Sullivan. I’m glad to have you here. The kids were so delighted by your gifts a month ago.” Sister Theresa. said when she went to Ciara after the program to thank her personally in her nun outfit. 

Ciara smiled. “I’m glad the kids love it, sister. I’m pleased to know it.” 

Sister Theresa’s eyes drifted to the side, and she called someone. 

“Mr. Haynes! Oh, come here! I wanted you to meet someone!” she said giddily, calling Callum, who was done talking to someone. 

Ciara swallowed secretly as she wanted to stop her from calling him and telling him she knew him, but Sister Theresa was persistent in taking Callum in front of her. 

“She was the one I told you who’s your greatest competitor when it comes to donations!” Sister Theresa chuckled happily as she pulled Callum completely, whose eyes immediately drifted to Ciara.. 

“This is Miss Ciara Sullivan. Just like you, she also loves kids. And she has a daughter too, like you,” Sister Theresa introduced. 

Ciara and Callum looked at each other. The years without seeing each other and now that they’re in front of each other felt like a dream. “Nice to meet you. Callum said gently. 

Ciara just nodded, smiled a little, and looked at sister Theresa. “I’m going, sister. It’s quite late. My daughter is waiting for me.”
