My Ruthless Ex Demands by Eva Blackwood Episode 169

A Week Later
Foxfire County.
Nestled around Orkset City, Foxfire County was home to the serene Jade Lake, a place brimming with historical allure. The area had resisted the heavy hand of modern development, leaving its pristine landscapes untouched—a rare gem where nature reigned supreme.
Elizabeth had once visited this idyllic locale with Elijah during a project survey. The enchanting scenery had left such a mark on her that she wove its charm into one of her scripts, a vivid reflection of her awe.
Recently, Freddie had caught wind of Jade Lake’s newfound fame, thanks to the ever-powerful internet celebrities. The buzz had nudged local authorities toward transforming the area into a tourist hub.
Fearing that impending construction might disrupt their shoot, Freddie made the executive decision to film the lake scenes ahead of schedule.
Since that explosive argument with Elijah, Elizabeth had poured herself entirely into her work, throwing her energy into the film crew’s efforts. As for Elijah, he hadn’t reached out—not a call, not a message.
It was as though the ties binding them had frayed into oblivion.
And yet, shadows of their past lingered. Sandra’s Twitter posts occasionally bore subtle, almost coded hints of Elijah—little markers only someone intimately familiar with him would recognize.
Elizabeth’s gut told her these cryptic gestures were directed at her, designed to provoke.
But to what end? To gloat? What exactly did Sandra have to flaunt? Elizabeth had walked away willingly, carrying no regrets.
With an exasperated sigh, she blocked Sandra on Twitter. Competing in such an absurd game of smoke and mirrors wasn’t worth her time or peace of mind.
“Elizabeth, the skies have cleared up for now, but it looks like rain might roll in again soon. We need to pick up the pace.”
