I'm the Obsession of My Cold-Hearted Ex novel Chapter 66

Chapter 66 Midnight Intrusion

Finished

Ellis clearly remembered locking the door as soon as she got home from work. So, how did that lousy guy manage to get in?

A slight thrill of horror spread at the bottom of her heart, causing her to sit up in bed in an instant, staring incredulously at the man beside her. “Why are you in my house? How did you get in?”

“Opening a door isn’t hard. is it?”

“What do you want?” Ellis felt a chill crawl up her scalp.

In the dead of night, anyone would be terrified to find someone breaking into their home, especially when sleeping soundly. Although the intruder was Easton, not some vile criminal, his grim expression was still unsettling.

“Give me your phone.” Easton reached out his hand.

Ellis frowned.

Without waiting for her to act, Easton reached under her pillow as if he knew exactly where to look. Seeing her phone being taken, she tried to snatch it back while scolding. “In the middle of the night, you don’t sleep but come here to steal my phone? Are you full?”

Easton held the phone just out of reach and entered the unlock code.

Unexpectedly, the screen indicated the password was incorrect. His gaze shifted back to her, clearly annoyed. “Changed your password?

Unable to retrieve her phone, Ellis glared at Easton and then turned her face away. “None of your business!”

When blindly in love, you really want to make everything about the other person. She used to set all her passwords to Easton’s birthday, and he always knew her habit, even mocked her for being childish.

No longer in love with Easton, she definitely had to change her passwords! He probably didn’t like her answer, his lips pressed into a thin line.

“Tell me the new password“”

His tone was imperious, infuriating her. “Are you insane? Breaking into my house in the middle of the night and stealing my phone, what the hell do you want?”

Before she could finish, Easton was already tapping on the keypad again, waiting for her to reveal the new password. Then, as if struck by a thought, he grabbed her right hand.

Caught off guard, he quickly squeezed her right thumb onto the screen.

The fingerprint was successfully scanned, unlocking the phone. Right under her nose, he opened her WhatsApp.

Glancing at her WhatsApp homepage, Ellis vaguely guessed his motive, yet it seemed too far–fetched. Only when Easton opened her WhatsApp blacklist, found his account, quickly removed it, and sent a friend request did the bizarre truth hit her. All this just to remove himself from a blacklist?

He must be the only one in the world who’d break into someone’s house in the middle of the night just to do that! Speechless, she didn’t know what to say or how to react, rubbing her forehead in frustration.

After everything, Easton loomed over her. “Ellist

Just two days ago, he warned her not to cheat, and tonight he had frightened her again.

Cant he find something productive to do, like rushing to the Civil Affairs Department with me to get a divorce certificate, instead of formenting me?

His voice, usually pleasant and deep, carried a hint of anger in the quiet of the night, sounding rather ominous.

Finished

Lois had warned that he might find out she was helping Tate Group poach employees. She was prepared, so his words didn’t scare her but left her feeling helpless.

Carly had discussed the prenuptial agreement she and Easton signed, planning to invalidate it with Sophia’s help.

Expecting Carly to understand and respect her wishes was harder than reaching the heavens.

Ellis flopped back, resigned, lying flat and pulling the blanket over her head.

“Stop your pipe dream. They work for you, not as your slaves; there’s no indenture–they can switch jobs freely! You want me to quit Tate Group, not a chance!” She made her firm stance on not quitting clear.

Losing a job that paid a million a year meant facing the cold winds.

As for Carly’s actions, being misunderstood by Easton that she had used Carly as an enforcer left her with no desire to explain.

Easton’s lack of trust meant that nothing she said would make a difference. He would only believe what he wanted to believe!

As she finished speaking, the blanket was roughly pulled off. Ellis watched, expressionless, as the man’s face grew darker. This is a society governed by law; any crime will face legal consequences, so don’t mess around“”
