Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE! Chapter 52 She called!

ALESSANDRO’S POV

I’m struggling to comprehend the current state of my life. It seems like since Victoria’s departure, everything I attempt to do has become plagued with misfortune.

Not a single piece of information I am getting correctly. I was unaware of the identity of the person who rescued me that evening if it was Camilla or someone else. I was also unsure if Victoria was pregnant three years ago. Victoria’s current location and now the merging of White Corporation. Nothing is going well.

Calvin and I have been working on the project since yesterday, but we have been unable to secure any of their projects. I am confused about what is happening – could they have sold their company without our knowledge?

As I got through the same papers, double-checking them, Calvin walked inside the office with a worried frown on his face.

“Boss, I guess we find out what is wrong in White Corp,” he said, keeping his iPad before me.

As I looked down at the information, he continued, “someone recently invested in White Corp. The individual must possess significant power to have complete control over everything. They have restricted access to a considerable amount of data, and their information is not easily accessible. And…”

He swiped to the other page, pointing to the red mark. “Everything with the red dot is marking Reywalt Corporation, and it seems that someone is hostile toward Reywalt as he is targeting all our projects. So, instead of getting theirs, we are losing all our projects recently.” After doing the calculations, I finally understood all the equations and realized that what Calvin had said must be true. The losses we were experiencing were not as significant as those typically seen in business, which is why we hadn’t noticed them before.

But the question is why? Who could that someone be? Is it someone related to the White family, our family, or Edwards?

No. I immediately dropped the idea of Edwards’s doing such a thing to me. I don’t know, but I couldn’t believe that Victoria would do anything unless Antonio was secretly doing things to avenge his sister.

However, this possibility doesn’t make me feel optimistic. My intuition tells me that there is something else happening.

I tapped on the desk before looking up at Calvin, “it seems this person is targeting me because of some personal revenge. At least, that is what I am feeling, and using the White family for this. Keep your research going, but start doing secret research to find this anonymous with your most loyal men.”

I looked back at the screen again. “Let him know that we didn’t stop but turned into a mess because of him. Then only he would make a mistake to come out.”

“Yes, sir.” With a nod, he immediately started walking out but stopped in the middle and turned to me.

“Oh, and boss? Will you be visiting Paris for the new project?” He asked.

Without any hesitation, I shook my head at him and said, “No, send Mr. Barren and have someone go with him. Please keep me informed of every situation.”

“Sure, sir.” With that, he walked out rushingly.

While I was overwhelmed with work, I continued the process of merging and focused on my other tasks as well. All of a sudden, I heard a series of beeps.

My phone started ringing. Removing the glass from my nose, I looked down at it only to frown.

The phone is ringing with an unknown number; importantly, it is private.

I answered the phone and said, “Hello? May I know who’s calling?”

“It’s me, Victoria.” A female tone came to my ear that made me freeze in my seat without movement.

My heart started beating like crazy, and for a moment, I felt like my heart would stop at any time. Everything seemed so illusionary suddenly. Perhaps I am having imaginary thoughts. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

Why would she call me all of a sudden?

Although my mind is active with numerous thoughts, I remain seated and motionless while pressing my phone against my ear with one hand.

I felt that if I were to shift, the illusion would vanish, and that’s not what I desire! Even if it’s just my own illusion, I long to sense her nearness to me.

I heard the same voice again as if to break my frozen state. “Are you there, Alessandro?”

Her tone once again fell to my ear, and then reality hit me. She called?! Fuck!

“Yes! Yes, I am! Victoria…” I answered in a rush. Her name fell from my lips, and my throat suddenly turned heavier, making it hard for me to speak.

Yet, I didn’t care. I won’t! I don’t know why she called me, but I need to talk to her. Her voice is like a drop of water in my burned soul.

“Thank God you called. I have searched for you almost in the whole of America! Where are you, Victoria, I…”

I have a lot to talk about and a lot to ask. But she stopped me in the middle with her next words.

“My location is not the main thing, Alessandro.” Her tone came colder than I had ever heard, and I realized something was wrong for the first time while talking.

“Victoria…” I only could say her name, and nothing came out.

“What? No more words, huh?” I heard her mockery even through the phone. “I at least thought you were not someone who would choose crime over justice, no matter who she is.”

I blinked, totally baffled hearing her words. Before I could ask what happened, she said, “even after Camilla drugged you, you got her out of prison, Alessandro. I never accepted such a thing from you ever. You destroyed the one thing I was certain of regarding you. Anyways, congratulations on your win. However, keep in mind that you won’t get another chance to do something like this in the future.”

‘Beep… beep…’

“Hello! Victoria! Listen…” However, she had already ended the call.

Knowing this was a private number, I still called her back, but it didn’t go. Immediately, I called for Calvin through the intercom.

When he entered, I gave him the private number and asked him to find out the location of this number at any cost.

I am willing to pay anything to find and see her again. I can’t fail in that, not anymore.
