He's my (Former) wife

Trapped

Jake is baffled to death because Chen hasn't returned from his home country. Sean is also not in business with other colleagues.

The problem is Jake has no one he can trust other than Chen and Sean to help him settle the company's affairs.

Jake must soon take a company tour on one of the tenders in a small town that is building critical infrastructure.

The point is Jake will control the development project of a subsidiary of Xander Group that has penetrated into remote areas.

...

"Damn, can't you come back soon?!"

Isabelle who was cleaning Jake's room at the second hour could only see when the ex-husband was upset when he contacted someone.

"I don't want to know, someone has to accompany me there!" jake's assertive, of course, he'll get a witty answer.

"Can't you recommend someone?" The man still demanded the other person speak. Every now and then he looked towards Isabelle who was busy tidying the guest table.

After hanging up the phone line, the man immediately noticed a circular watch on his left wrist.

He immediately got up and grabbed the suit hanging on the back of the chair. The next instant shocked Isabelle and nearly fell down as Jake grabbed Isabelle's hand and pulled her body to follow the man's steps.

"Hey, what are you doing?" isabelle protests, she may be a errand boy in Jake's office, but she doesn't like being treated like an animal being dragged. It sounded exaggerated because it was just Isabelle's thinking.

"Follow me!!" jake firmly without turning his head and let go of his hand.

"What-what? I don't want to!!" reject Isabelle while trying to pull a hand to escape, but it was useless. Jake's energy isn't worth his weak calm.

Almost all office employees saw the incident, the drama played by Jake and Isabelle was like a spectacle for them.

"This is an order!! Follow me to Lewis Conty's farm, no rejection! You understand?!"

Isabelle rounded her eyes when she heard the ex-husband's words. Of course he would not because he remembered Michael.

After arriving at the parking lot Isabelle releases Jake's hand checks and it works.

"I told you I don't want to! Don't just because you're a boss it means you can do it!" angry Isabelle.

"I'll pay you!" jake answered while opening the car door and directing Isabelle to enter immediately.

"I can't!" isabelle insists, of course he can not go because the place that Jake mentioned is far from where they live.

The farm is almost in the mountains and is certainly still rarely populated there. It all comes back to Isabelle's maternal instincts of not wanting to be away from her little son.

"Why? Do I need to remind you again about your assignment?!" jake asked rhetorically, of course he reminded me that Isabelle must obey all her will.

"I can't because- ...."

"What?" Jake looks impatient. "Hurry in!!"

"There's someone waiting for me at home" replied Isabelle quickly.

"Who? Your boyfriend the other day? You think I care? You can meet him after your assignment is done!" Jake's words sounded very stressful.

'What's worse than prison.'

Isabelle just doesn't understand how Jake thinks he has a girlfriend. You arrogant man who is willing to draw conclusions.

"Okay, but let me call someone!" pinta Isabelle with a pleading tone.

"All right, tell your girlfriend to wait!" jake's saying that makes Isabelle lose her word. "Then you can spend all your time!"

How could the man think that, even though he only wanted to contact Mariela to leave Michael. He is forced by Jake's insurmountable wish.

Isabelle is sad to have to part with her baby, and she is instead stuck with her ex-husband who is a biological father to Michael.

...

An hour's drive to Lewis Conty is filled only with silence by Jake and Isabelle, no one intending to start a conversation with each other.

An hour that felt so long for Isabelle, even the road that was being passed like endless and it made Isabelle desperate.

Jake who realized Isabelle's anxiety only occasionally glanced, the woman who bestatus ex-wife looks uncomfortable.

'Isabelle really worried about her boyfriend? Exorbitant!'

"Are you so familiar with Sean?" Isabelle is shocked to hear Jake's voice, the man starts talking to her first.

"Eh? Sean is a friend of my brother's, "Isabelle replied hesitantly.

Jake glanced back, Isabelle was looking down, maybe he was also less understanding or less satisfied with the answer from the ex-wife.

"I-i ...."

"You- ...."

Jake and Isabelle turned their faces back, saying at the same time they both kept quiet and did not continue their respective words.

Isabelle never expected that sitting together with Jake could make her nervous to death, and was stuck in the same place she had never thought of all this time.

Is it fate or coincidence? Isabelle just does not want the man to come back to humble himself, especially Isabelle does not want if feelings for her ex-husband reappear.

Why is she stuck with her ex-husband? The problem was caused by Jake himself. Wouldn't things get worse later.

It seemed Isabelle would rather daydream than interact with Jake, the woman just stared out the car window where the view felt much more attractive than the handsome man beside her.

The tall and shady forest trees make the air around the streets cooler and fresher.

Isabelle's smile expanded slightly, she lowered the car glass and took out her hand just to feel the touch of the wind that hit her hand.

Without the woman realizing that the ex-husband continues to pay attention to all his movements. Isabelle's draped hair also flew away from the wind, a part of the child's hair stuck to her spotless face.

'Beautiful ....!'

A thin smile that was almost invisible, was also present on Jake's face. The man only felt that the ex-wife could be comforted by something so simple.

Jake only shook his head because he felt stupid and why would he bother thinking about what Isabelle was feeling right now?

However, Isabelle's happiness must end when suddenly the car she was riding stopped suddenly.

"What's wrong?" asked Isabelle with a questionable look.

"I don't know," Jake replied, the man looked confused as well. He immediately went down and checked things out.

Isabelle follows Jake down from the car and he can only wait while watching the surroundings.

Sepi ...

There were no other vehicles passing by, but perhaps soon there would be another car, at this time it could be said they stopped right on the path that passed through the forest.

"Is everything okay?" Isabelle asked, while approaching and looking at Jake who seemed to be still checking the state of his car.

"Damn ....!!" jake's anger makes Isabelle jump. Apparently he ran out of fuel in a hurry he forgot to refill.

At such a time Isabelle's mind could not be compromised, a bad shadow filled it. He remembered all the horror movies he had seen, or the psychopaths who were looking for prey in the forest.

Isabelle's thoughts continue to float how the psychopaths in the film kill, cut, even eat the flesh of their victims, really creepy.

Isabelle felt a sudden chill as the cool breeze of the forest hit her body clad in a thin white shirt.

The woman only patted her white cheeks a few times, and again her behavior was seen by the ex-husband who was crossing his hands on his chest while looking at her.

"What's he doing?" Whether the idea of where Jake wants to tease the woman is from, Jake is sensitive enough to mean that Isabelle is nervous and scared.

"Ah, it looks like we'll be stuck here if there's no passing vehicle," teased Jake pretending to be confused.

"What-what?" ask Isabelle quickly. His eyes blinked a few times and it looked cute and adorable in Jake's eyes, apparently he had already made a mistake by teasing the ex-wife.

'You're so beautiful.'

'So damn beautiful.'
