AGAINST ALL ODDS ( Addicted to her). Chapter 29: Divorce.
Giselle's POV.I drove home with a smile on my face, I couldn't remember when I genuinely smiled, but it didn't last, I got back home, and parked my car. I went into the mansion and I was expecting the guest to sleep over, but none were around. I was relieved that they left, but I like the one person among them and I wished to see her again.I wanted to climb the stairs, but suddenly I heard my mother-in-law's voice behind me. “Childless women always get home late since they have no one to cater for,” she said irritatedly, and I knew who she was referring to, but I didn't mind her.“Good evening ma'am,” I greeted, making sure I didn't say the word ‘’mom’. But she didn't reply, “my nephew's wife gave birth today, and my youngest sister became a grandmother today,” she said angrily.“Congratulations to them,” I said, and she looked at me with anger, “are you out of your mind?!” She flared up. “What have I done ma'am?” I asked. “What have you done? When are you going to give birth?! Al

Ivy's POV.Since the embarrassed I faced in the I wasn't able to think, and I decided to go out and have some fun, but what I saw only worsen my mood, I sighted Bryan and the young lecturer coming out of the place I wanted to reserve, I saw the chemistry that happened between them, I felt frustrated, and seeing Bryan's face beaming with love I felt more angry, ‘how dare him’ I said inwardly, and took the picture of the two as proof. Not too long, the young lecturer left the place in her car, while Bryan was standing and smiling like a finished man.I wondered what the young lecturer told him to make him look that stupid, I couldn't suppress my frustrations, and walked towards Bryan.“I must say that you are very bold,” I said and he turned around, but he wasn't even shocked seeing me, and that made me angry, I couldn't intimidate him.He looked at me and he wanted to walk away, but I shamelessly called him back.“Bryan, you can't walk out on me,” I said, and he smiled. “Says who?” He

Giselle's POV.I woke up early as usual and started to prepare for work. Donald left the house already, and I didn't bother looking for him because I was used to it.I got dressed and went downstairs for breakfast, and I was happy that the dinner hall was quiet. My mother in-law wasn't there, so I was relieved.I finished eating breakfast, and took my lunch with me so I wouldn't starve. I went to the car but I remember I didn't take my car key, so I had to rush in to pick it up.“I'm going to find another wife for Donald,” I overheard that while I was going upstairs, it was my mother-in-law's voice, she was on the phone with only God knows in the dinner hall, but I could hear her. And that word made me feel weak. I ignored it and climbed the stairs to pick my car key.I got to the room, and searched for the car keys, but I couldn't find any. There was a designated place for keys, but I was too distracted to remember. “Where could it be?” I asked myself searching effortlessly, and I be

Bryan's POV.After what happened yesterday, I kept thinking of a new way to stop Ivy, because I knew that hacking her phone won't last, I have to protect Giselle, and I didn't want to stay away from her either. I parked my car and waited for Giselle so that I could walk with her, but I didn't she her on time, and I want to call her then I remembered that, I didn't have her number, I waited for a while, and wanted to go in and ask for her contact information from the class governor, because he called her for the assignments last time, but a voice stopped me.“Bryan,” I heard, and I stopped to see the person and it turned out to be Claire. “Hi, Claire,” I said, and she wasn't looking happy, even when she hadn't said anything I knew something wasn't right.“Good morning,” she said faintly, and I nodded. “I-I break up with him,” she said, and I knew she was referring to already. “Did you think you will be fine?” I asked, and she nodded with a faint smile,and I knew that smile was too fake

Bryan's POV.I wanted to walk in to ask for Giselle's contact information, then I sighted a familiar person in a cab from afar, “isn't that Giselle,” I mumbled to myself, and I realized that I called her first name out loud. I got close to the cab, and I saw how distressed she was. ‘Why didn't she bring her car?’ I thought.“Good morning Mrs Albert,” I said cheerfully, knowing we shared a playful moment the day before. “morning,” she said flatly, but it sounded cold. “Is there any way I can help?” I asked, and she nodded at me.“Payment?” I asked, and she nodded again without saying a word, and that made me feel distant from her. She might not be playful, but not a cold type either. “I'm coming,” I said, and wanted to find her a voucher, because I also didn't have, all the time I drove her to her place, I only order taxi that is from one of my uncles company, and I only use my family card, so I don't have a cab voucher. I didn't know who to approach, but then I sighted one of my cour

Bryan's POV.I left her office and I headed to my lecture hall. I got to the hall, and I noticed that my presence made people feel uncomfortable, and they couldn't make eye contact with me. I knew they might have gossip about what happened the day before, so I ignored it and I wasn't curious about the topic. I sat down and brought out my phone to check the school group chat, and the first notification I saw was the picture I took with the girl I borrowed the voucher from. I shook my head seeing the caption.The caption “Bryan snapped with me today! I don't mind failing this semester, this is worth it!” And the hashtags #takeBryanandrun #forevermarriedtoBryan #protectthesmarthubby I read the comments under the post and I couldn't help but laugh, the girls were so toxic with their keyboards.After some time, the lecturer came in, and it was Giselle's class. I dropped my phone, and brought out my course material. I noticed that her mood had changed but the sadness was still there.She st

Bryan's POV.I looked at them all irritated and hissed. “If this happens again, just know that y'all must be ready to be stepped on,” I said, and I turned around, but I remembered something then I turned to them back. “I am not saying that I forgive for this one, I hate to own people, I despise debt,” I said, and they all looked stressed, because they knew that their father must not find out that they made such a mistake and after their business.I helped Seb to the clinic even though he didn't want to, but I persuaded him. “I'm sorry,” I said, and he shook his head. He couldn't talk because he was embarrassed and holding his tears, but looking at his eyes filled with water I knew he would cry soon. “It's okay to cry, but none of it was your fault, you don't deserve this, you are smart, and kind, I am so sorry for putting you into this trouble,” I said.“It's not your fault either, it's not their first time,” he said, and looked at him curiously. “How?

And why should I have business with bullies?” I asked angrily. And Damien was getting annoyed, but the two were calming him down like I wasn't looking at them. 'Spoilt brats' I thought, seeing how they were acting, I wanted to give them a good beating.“Bryan, we are not bullies, we a

Giselle's POV.I went through hell holding the pain, but I didn't plan on losing the baby. Two days later,“I am sorry, I didn't tell you about Ivy,” he said apologetically. I smiled faintly looking at him. “I didn't know she would be that extreme,” he said, but then I remembered that he came to the scene without being called by Ivy.“How did you know where I was?” I asked with my brows knitted. He stopped talking for a moment before he cleared his throat. “Your anklet,” he pointed to my leg. “What?” I chuckled. “I had a bad feeling and you don't like the idea of bodyguards that was why I installed a tracking device on it,” he explained.I remembered how he made sure I wore the anklet when going out. He got it for me on the day he got me an engagement ring. I didn't realize he was trying to protect me all that time.I smiled at him, I was so happy that he was consistent with his character and he didn't change. “I got there late I am sorry, I should have noticed earlier,” his eyeba

Bad Feeling.Bryan's POV.At the hospital,We got to the hospital emergency room, and she was already receiving treatment. She lost a lot of blood and I was so scared seeing how the treatment took a lot of time.“Who is she to you, Mr Lopez?” The doctor asked. “She's my fiance,” I said with a trembling voice, I knew no good came out of that question. The doctor became silent. “What's wrong, say something doctor!” I panicked.“She inhales a lot of smoke, and she bled too much, the fetus is at risk, and it is dangerous for her health so we might consider an abortion to make her safe,” he said.My jaw dropped hearing that I knew how much Giselle wanted a baby, but knowing I was the cause of all the circumstances I felt horrible.“Is there no other way?” I asked. “There is, but the patient's life will be at risk; she might not make it,” the doctor said.I shook my head unconsciously. “I don't want to lose her,” “Wh____ Dr. Niel!” I wanted to talk, but I was interrupted by a nurse coming

I was tied down on the chair and couldn't move an inch.I didn't know Where I was or how I got there. All I knew was that someone asked for my help and that made me land in an unknown room tied down to a chair.I looked around and I noticed we weren't at the city judging with the sounds.

Ivy's POV.I was shocked to hear about Bryan's proposal to the young lecturer. I knew Bryan's determination can't be altered even by his parents so I didn't plan to approach his mother again since it would not work.I started thinking of a way to stop their engagement or whatever they were planning to do. “What can stop a wedding from happening?” I asked my maid unconsciously.“If the bride decided to show up or the groom, no wedding was held without the couples,” she said, and that rang a bell. 'No wedding holds without the bride' I repeated the words in my head.“What?” I smiled cunningly. “I am sorry, ma'am,” she apologized for absolutely nothing. “This is the first time I will be finding your presence useful, good job,” I said.I decipher the solution to the problem without stress. “Thank you ma'am,” she smiled, and made me feel irritated. “Get out of my sight!” I fired.She scurried out of my room.

I went inside and I saw many choices but I saw a particular diamond ring that was eye-catching. “I want that one,” I chose. I left the mall, and then I decided to go out with the boys because he needed it. I picked up my phone and dialed Kevin's number. He picked up after some time. “Hello,” I said, and I expected Kevin to talk from the other end, but he didn't. “Are you okay?” I asked worriedly. “I am fine,” he said with a weak voice from the other end. “What's wrong with you?” I asked, but then I remembered that such questions didn't benefit such communication methods. “Let's meet up,” I said. “Okay, our bar,” he said from the other end. I ended the call and called Sebastian. “Hey buddy,” he said from the other end. “Hi,” I said. “What's up?”! His voice was low and uncheerful. “How are you?” I asked. “I am feeling great.,” He said, but he didn't sound alright.

Bryan's mother was still looking at me with her deadly glare.I looked away trying my best not to make her angry. I saw Bryan with his father, and I noticed something was suspicious with their behavior, but I ignored it. Took my phone, and I felt disappointed. My parents were never supportive, and I knew that, but that was different.I felt ignored and belittled. My parents were very greedy and selfish. I wished they could realize that I was their daughter too.I foolishly thought I loved Donald and made the sacrifice for my dad, but she later abandoned me after getting me into a business.Even my mother was never there for me. I thought Donald's mother's evil treatment was normal at first since I didn't have the experience of a mother's love.I wanted to have time with my parents and laugh with them, but that could never happen because of the company affairs.I dropped my phone and shrugged

Giselle's POV.His parents were shocked by the news and they left angrily. I couldn't believe my ears…'Game companies?’ I mulled it over in my head. I wondered how he started because he was still young and naive. He must be a genius, I thought, but I was angry that he hid such important information from me.But then the day he confessed his feelings for me, he took me to a game competition, and I noticed he was respected by the workers, but I could never imagine that he owned something that huge.I stared at him blankly. I didn't know if I should get angry or just cheer him up, we were both in a situation that needed to be close, but I couldn't help it. I was distant from him, and that made me sad.I hated the fact that he hid something that huge from people including me. I didn't expect much from him. I was more dumbfounded when I found out about his mother.I went to the company before, and he still dared to pretend. He made a fool out of me, and nobody ever hinted to me about my

I texted Henry to get himself prepared because I wanted to celebrate my new achievement with him. I missed his touch so much. I set out and drove out of the parking lot. I drove to the hospital using the GPS.I got to the hospital and I had difficulty in looking for the ward, but then I saw Bryan's mother walking angrily towards the ward. I ran after her. “Good morning, ma'am,” I greeted politely. “What are you doing here?” She asked. “I-I…came here to collect my father's medical report,” I said, giving her a questioning look as well. “I can't hide from you since you gave me the tip,” she said. “Follow me if you have time,
