The CEO’s Ex-Wife Is A Famous Doctor

Chapter 81: A New Business Partner
“Shanty. Where are you? Shanty, come
back! Please!” Evan’s dream startled
Shantelle. His hold around her waist
tightened, and her naked body was
pressed against him.
“Evan. Evan!” Shantelle called, waking
him. “Evan, I’m here.”
Evan jerked awake, his eyes rounding while his breathing hitched. He held Shantelle tightly, repeatedly calling her name,
“Shanty. Shanty.” He turned to her side and hugged her firmly. “Don’t leave me again, please. I can’t bear it.”
Shantelle returned the embrace. She
wrapped her arm around his neck,
answering, “I’m here. I’m not leaving, Evan. Whatever it was, it was just a
dream. I’m here.”
It took some time for Evan to settle his
emotions. When he did, he revealed, “I
haven’t been dreaming of such a scene lately, but it came so often during the first two years when you left.”
“Lately, I have been sleeping better,”
Evan disclosed.
His words made Shantelle wonder how badly Evan struggled to sleep at night for many years. She had those nights too,

when Evan broke her heart, but when she learned she was pregnant, her hormones
aided in her rest.
Shantelle pecked his cheek, saying,
You’ll be sleeping much better now.”
“You promise to stay with me all night?”
Evan softly asked.
Shantelle chuckled and replied, “In some nights.”
With a nod, Evan replied, “I’m okay with
that.”
Evan realized how it was nearly dawn. He checked the time and said, “I’m fucking hungry.” He should. He made love with
Shantelle until one in the morning,
making it until the fourth round.
When Evan realized it was half an hour past four, he suggested they have an early breakfast. “Lucas should be awake soon.
Let’s eat first, and then I’ll eat you for dessert before heading back to your
house.”
“But, I don’t have a top anymore,”
Shantelle reminded him of how he tore
off her blouse.
Evan pointed with his head and said, You have lots of clothes inside the closet.”
Shantelle remembered how Mrs. Shaw suggested the same. Well, seeing it would
be much better. ‘Did he maintain all my

clothes?’
She got up, covering herself with a blanket, leaving Evan baffled. He asked, ” What are you doing? I have seen you
naked. I have tasted every part of your body. Why are you covering up?”
Shantelle rolled her eyes before leaving
the blanket on the floor. When she
entered the closet, she was shocked to see
all the clothes. It was more than what she
remembered! There was so much Evan barely had space for his own. She saw several pieces that were unfamiliar to her. She
asked, “Are these new?”
“Yes, I buy clothes for you now and then, “Evan said behind her. He entered the
walk-in closet to fetch a shirt and
pajamas.
“How did you guess I would be back here, though?” Shantelle asked.
Evan laughed and embraced her from behind, cupping her breast while he was at it. He kissed her cheek, saying, “I did not
know, but I never stopped hoping.
“I’ll head down first,” Evan said.
After hearing him leave the room, Shantelle found a good pair of shorts and a shirt she remembered Evan bought her when they
married. She was about to leave when a particular white dress caught her attention.
“Wow,” she remarked. It was a Sarah Kate dress. she bit her lips, remembering how she used to be so particular about buying
only the same designer dress, but it wasn’t her priority after leaving Rose Hills. Still, she bought a dress or two, but because
Warlington did not have a Sarah Kate boutique, she had failed to follow
the trend.

She went through the dresses and found
more limited edition ones. Her eyeballs would have fallen off just by how they
were rounding in each dress she pulled
out.
“So beautiful,” she complimented on a blue dress. Some needed resizing since Shantelle had lost weight, but not significantly.
She checked the mirror and said, “This brings out the color of my
eyes, but then again, the white dress is so elegant!” a
Shantelle felt like a princess, having
many clothes to choose from, yet she
didn’t know about them until now. “I love
this.”
“Can’t decide which one to wear?” Evan
walked in behind her. “We will have a
formal wear photo shoot later. Let’s have
white and blue?”
Shantelle’s eyes were gleaming. She
smiled brightly at Evan, saying, “Thank
you, Evan. These are so beautiful. Some
are even more stunning than the ones you
recently gave me.”
“I wasn’t sure if you’d want these since they are old,” Evan described.

Fashion styles always come back every few years. Some of these will return to trend,” Shantelle suggested. “Some designs can
be timeless.”
She turned to Evan and kissed his lips, saying, “I love them.”
He kissed back, asking, “How about you love me?”
Shantelle’s face burned. Instead of
answering, she tasted his mouth and relished in a deep kiss. When she pulled away, Evan said, “Mmmm. I’m going to eat two
servings of dessert later.”
***
Evan had his double dessert after an early
breakfast. Next, they went to the Scotts
mansion to fetch their son.
Lucas was over the moon when he learned they would spend two days together as a family. His tired self became. full of life as
he jumped for joy. He excitedly packed his bags with his parents. help and left with them for their family photo shoot.
From formal to casual wear, the family of three changed from one set of clothes to another, posing for the cameras.
Evan brought them to a studio full of professional stylists and photographers. Shantelle and Lucas were introduced as Evan’s
family, and they had Evan’s full attention the entire time.
“Make sure my wife and son look good in the photo,” Evan instructed while posing
for the cameras.
“Does my son look like me or what? Make
sure our angles are the same,” Evan
added.

When Shantelle changed into a new dress, he constantly checked if it fit her well. As for Lucas, he personally helped him with
clothes and styled his son’s hair
to make it look like his.
During breaks, Evan took it upon himself to prepare his family’s meals, and they all ate together simultaneously.
James, Evan’s assistant, was also present to direct the team of writers and the magazine representative on how the feature will
go. Evan’s plan was to block an entire five spreads, equal to ten pages all in all, of the magazine to introduce Shantelle and
Lucas.
When the photo shoot was done, Evan selected from all the pictures and decided which ones would be published in the
magazine. He and Shantelle also quickly met with Evan’s PR manager to discuss the subsequent publicity that needed to
be done.
As the family drove to the villa, Shantelle
asked Evan, “So about Jessica Turner
With a sigh, Evan said, “Wifey, I don’t
want you to think I’m not doing anything. I am working on it. Let them think they
have escaped my punishment; the higher
they climb, the harder they will fall. So be
patient with me. Just one week more, and
everything will fall into place.”
“I have canceled our future collaboration,
but I am having difficulty buying their rights in the newly built condo. I will let them glorify for now, but I’ll take

everything back, eventually, eventually. With Attorney Scarlett’s help, I’ll have full rights to the condo and a new business partner,
too,” Evan revealed. ‘
Everything will unravel at the company’s
anniversary party, where I will
reintroduce you and Lucas and formally announce the new business partner.”
“The new business partner?” Shantelle repeated. 2
“Yes,” Evan smirked and announced, Scarlett’s husband will buy the shares of
the Turners and will convert the
condominium into a Diamond Hotel, the
first here in Rose Hills.” 2
“Oh, wow. Nice catch, Evan. Good job,” Shantelle remarked. The Diamond Hotels was one of the biggest hotel brands in the
country. Making partners with the said hotel brand would certainly pave the way
for Evan’s growing empire.
“Yes, well. Everything happens for a reason,” Evan remarked. “It was a good decision for me to hire Attorney Scarlett
and her team to represent you against Warlington Hospital and Mayor Frank
Morgan.”
“I have invited Scarlett’s family to the anniversary party,” Evan announced.
“I can’t wait to meet them,” Shantelle
commented.
“Yes, I heard they have lots of kids.” Evan winked at Shantelle, saying, “Maybe, we can learn from them, Wifey. Make loads.
of babies.”

Shantelle shook her head as she looked
outside the window of the car.
Meanwhile, Lucas, who had been lying on
her lap the whole time, exclaimed, “I
want a brother!”
“Sure,” Evan promised, while Shantelle glared at him.
