It's his loss for treating her like trash because of a two-faced woman. She maintained her composure, signed the papers, and left him. He thought that he had no feelings for her.

Maverick looked around him, and I noticed he felt embarrassed. “Go to the restroom and get yourself cleaned up,” I shook my head with my hands up, “Alright, you know what? Let's go home. I am done here” “What? But you brought us here” “I know but can't you see that I am messed up?” He held my hands as we walked out of the ice-cream shop. “You know you shouldn't have shouted when the incident happened right?” Mav said as he turned the steering wheel. I looked at him in bewilderment “What!?” I screamed. I couldn't believe what he said. “If you had gummed your buttocks on your seat, she wouldn't have thrown up and you”Shit! I felt insulted indirectly. As if that wasn't enough, he made another statement. “She only threw up knowing you because she was shocked to see you. I doubt she did that on purpose” “Oh my….” I couldn't complete my statement anymore. “You know what? I need to alight here” Mav pretended lik
I was almost breathless on seeing him but I also saw the shock on his face but he pretended and focused his attention on Vivianne. “Who messed you up like this?” Vivianne pointed at me with her eyes raging in anger. “This puppet threw up on me on purpose” I opened my mouth to speak but Maverick used his hand to stop me. “How dare you!? Why would you do such to my wife?”Huh? Did he just call her his wife? Does it mean that they are already married? “Mav, I need her to clean up this mess” “I think we need to go to the washroom” Mav said “No! She will have to lick up this vomit” I raised my eyebrows in shock. I had to keep my cool and waited for her to force me. I dipped my hand inside my gown pocket and brought out my face towel to clean my mouth. Vivianne snatched the towel forcefully from my hand and used it to clean her dress. Maverick stared at me waiting for me to feel frustrated, I quickly stood up, pushed the table before me and walked out on them. I could feel their
There was silence but I had to break it. I only wanted my parents to be aware that the marriage didn't work but telling them I was pregnant was something I never wished, but Asher wouldn't shut her mouth. I cleared my throat, “that's not true. I am only sick because I have fallen in love with Maverick and the whole thing makes me feel weird. So Asher believes that seeing me sick means I am pregnant” My parents gave a sigh of relief. Asher looked at me with disappointment but I winked my left eye to her. Her mother gave her a stern look which made her count her teeth. “Anyways, I thought that you both will get along with each other in a year but I can see that it didn't work” I was so sad. “Now you have seen it. You have always wanted to make decisions in my life which have never worked well. I am sure you are happy now. I came here to tell you that I don't want anybody to dictate my life again” “No, my baby you can't just talk like that. Your father and I just want the best for
The last time I cried this much was when I failed an exam in school."No way! You? To the countryside? You wanna die?" Asher screamed.I shut my eyes,before opening them."Just..."I turned to her,and gave a melancholic smile."...so I wouldn't die. I need time away from here."Alexis picked up a short gown ,and glanced back at me."Will your parents allow that?""I don't care about what they say anymore. The decisions they made for me has always been a disaster."I scoffed."Will you get revenge?"Alexis asked again in a whisper.Both Asher and I glanced at him.Hun?He's always been a quiet and easy going guy.I wasn't expecting such statement from him."Will you? I will happily help you."his jaw clenched and his eyes turned crimson.I sighed heavily, thanking holy Mary for giving me such a caring family."I can't waste my time on such person."I shook my head.I won't stoop that low for a revenge,never!"Wow. What was that just now?"Asher creased her brows.I smiled. Alexis might be q
I pressed the doorbell,and I heard footsteps approaching few seconds laterThe door opened and my aunt's face popped up.One side of her bob hair fell on her face, making her look younger than her age.Who would believe this beautiful woman is a divorcee?Her eyes moves right and left in their sockets,as she took in the view before her."Helena? This late? What..."she stopped when she saw tears running down my face.Her eyes held worry as she pulled me in then shut the door before embracing me.She seems to have gotten a grasp of what was going on.I wheezed,the realization that Maverick and I would no longer be together, dawning on me like a fiery pit.Aunt rubs my back in a soothing way,as she muttered some words I was too busy with tears to hear."Asher!"she called out.I hugged her even more, burying my face deep in her chest.Footsteps from the stairs sounded,and i raised up my head a bit to see Asher walking down.She bulged out her eyes,as she opened her mouth to speak but ende
I grinded my teeth. "Maverick, you've finally gone insane?"my voice was low, but held great rage."No, princess."he crossed his arms and cachinnates.His eyes glowed in something I couldn't place my hand on.Was he satisfied that he has gotten me this angry?What was he feeling inside? - I badly wanted to know.The door bell rang,and he stared at the direction of the door."That should be for you. Sorry,the gift came late." He smiled,and my heart warmed up which I found quite weird.I was perplexed,but only what is at the door can solve my confusion.I scrambled up to my feet, waking to the door.Right now,I wasn't thinking with my head.My heart was in control."First love hurts,Ele! It's like a necessary phase entrusted to pains but needed to enjoy sweet love."Asher's words rang in my ears.I got to the door,glanced at the camera and saw it was a delivery man putting on a yellow face cap.I opened it,and a brown box was thrusted into my arms. The guy grinned at me and I wondered wh
The color of the decoration of the dining room matched the color of my face - RED. I was livid. He was running late yet again. It's our one year anniversary,and I expected him to at least show up a bit earlier than the days before this particular day.It's a special day or isn't it to him?I remembered how things had been in our first months of marriage.How he'd managed to fulfill little wishes of mine - those I voiced out,or didn't even voice out.How he sent flower bouquets to me in my office - oh, that'd make my heart flutter.I had thought we were on the right track,that things were summing up - we were finally getting close.The love I'd harbored for him for years without letting him know naturally awakens, leaving sparks in its awake - it grows more,more and larger.The sudden hugs,kisses he'd shower me with - they are all seeping into my brain.With a deep breath,I recoiled back in fear of us falling apart,of our marriage going down the drain.I still want him. Although,eve
"Grandpa? You haven't done your checkup this year?"Asher turned to him with a gape.She prolly found it ridiculous also.She knows me just too well,that I hate this kind of arrangements!Grandpa chest moves up in his sports top as he sighed.Others didn't looked as surprised.They must have known about this already.So,I was just the clueless one dressed in red stupidly?"Mr Howell, I'm afraid that I can't agree to this.I don't have time for love and Mav and I are just friends."I rejected the idea, even though my brain was thumping against my head and my heart seems to agree with it because I could feel it in my mouth.A one part of me agrees and the other disagrees?I have never been so conflicted in my life!I parted my lips,to steady my breathing.An hysterical laughter pierced the dead-silent air."Oh such mentality of young folks! Love starts from friendship,you don't know?"my grandpa,I usually call him Mr Howell formally when I'm vexed,responded.He was beside himself with amu
Helena's pov."Welcome to Tianmo airport. We advise all...."a female's voice pierced through the cold air from the radio in the arriving hall."No way I'm getting married,dad!"i protested as I dragged my luggage down the hall."Your age is nothing to quote in this discussion,Helena. Now that you're back to America,as none other than Lucas Howell's only heiress,one who has made a name for herself home and abroad.You know, Helena, there's only two important things in this world - money,and love." Dad's voice cackled through the phone and I snorted, halting in my steps, abruptly.I heaved out a deep sigh, already having an headache because of his words."Yeah, right? But you and mom fight every week as if you were newlywed!"a scoff slides out of my lips in frustration.I'd watched both of them argue over the tiniest issue every fvcking time!They'd give each other cold shoulders for weeks,then reconcile, only to get in an argument a day after."That's because we love each other.
