I’m Remarrying, My Ex-Husband Novel – Cecilia Bradshaw received evidence of her husband cheating and watched the video on a loop. Kolton Thompson was never this excited or unrelenting when they had sex. In the video, a woman knocked on the door of Kolton’s hotel room at 11 pm. Kolton opened the door in his bathrobe. The woman left three hours later. The time stamp showed it happened yesterday.
The third day of Kolton’s business trip. Maybe Kolton hired a hooker to pass the lonely night. He was always libidinous. In the two years of their marriage, Cecilia rarely had a peaceful night. Did hiring a hooker count as cheating? From what her parents taught Cecilia about marriage, it didn’t. Still, the thought didn’t make Cecilia feel better. Cecilia put down her phone and stared at the melting cake.
Kolton wasn’t a romantic man and never celebrated Cecilia’s birthday for her. But today was Kolton’s birthday. Knowing Kolton didn’t like cream, Cecilia learned how to make an ice cream one. The weather was cold as it was fall. But after the long wait, the cake was melting. The decorative tiger looked ridiculous as it almost fell down. Cecilia didn’t have the leisure to think whether she should just eat the cake or call Kolton to ask when he was coming home.
The video filled her mind. Cecilia didn’t even notice Kolton’s car had entered the yard. The door opened. Kolton’s familiar footsteps were getting more and more clear.

He was competent and his family was influential. Frankly, Cecilia couldn’t find any flaw in Kolton even if she nitpicked. Inevitably, she fell in love with Kolton at first sight. It was when they met for their marriage contract. Because she loved Kolton, Cecilia agreed to stay a secret. She gave up her dream to be the Mrs.
Thompson that no one knew about. Her life became rotated around Kolton like a good wife, just like what Jasmin Pearson, her mom, had done. Did Kolton return her feelings… Cecilia remembered one thing. Two years ago, her family nearly went bankrupt over a failed investment. Garrett Bradshaw, her dad, planned to marry Cecilia to an old man for his money. Kolton came forward and saved Cecilia by agreeing to fulfill the marriage contract. So…Kolton must like her too.
The video was sent by an unknown number and the faces in it were blurry. Cecilia convinced herself that it was a misunderstanding. And it was Kolton’s birthday… She’d ask him about it tomorrow. “You said six pm when I called.” Cecilia got up and greeted Kolton, catching his black suit jacket. A strong whiff of perfume surprised Cecilia. She paused and looked at Kolton. “Occupied by work,” Kolton said curtly and frowned as he noticed the cake on the table. “Happy birthday!” Pushing her doubts aside, Cecilia was back to her good wife’s role.
Her two dimples showed as she beamed at Kolton with bright eyes. Kolton remained as indifferent as ever as if he didn’t hear her. He loosened his ti
