Divorced my Cheating Husband for his Billionaire Uncle   Mentally Ill, Physically Drunk.
The tires of the car crunched softly on the driveway as Arthur and Bethany pulled up in front of Charlesâs house.The silence in the car had been comfortable but as soon as they drove in through the unmanned gates, their silence became thick with the worries that neither of them wanted to voice but they can both see it either way.Bethany glanced out of the window, her eyes scanning the empty, lifeless shell of what had once been her matrimonial home. The sense of worry that hung over her had been growing stronger ever since they left Daisyâs house, but now, seeing the state of Charlesâs place, it is almost unbearable.The small garden on the side of the house, the same one Bethany had painstakingly tended to when she had lived here is now a withered patch of dry, brown earth, no single sight of a green leaf or any colors at all. The rose bushes she had once pruned with care were now shriveled husks, lifeless and brittle. It was as if the neglect that had consumed Charles had seeped i

Arthurâs patience snapped. He grabbed Charles by the collar, his fingers digging into the fabric as he shook him violently. From side to side, head to toe, he shook him hard, hoping against hope that heâll become sober.The movement was erratic, fueled by frustration and anger, as if he thought shaking Charles hard enough would somehow snap him back into reality. But Charles remained a dead weight, his body flailing uselessly as his eyes flickered open in a drunken stupor."Wake up!" Arthur growled, his voice rising. "Get it together, Charles! This isn't the time for you to be out of it! Your wife is passed out from whatever reason and you are piss drunk?"But Charles wasnât responding. His eyes remained glazed, his head lolling to one side, completely detached from the chaos unfolding around him. Arthur shook him one more time, a desperate attempt to bring him back to his senses, but it was no use. He swore under his breath, feeling his muscles tense with the mounting frustration.Fi

Bethany sat quietly by Alexaâs side in the hospital room, watching her closely.The beeping of the heart monitor and the sterile scent of disinfectant filled the air, creating an already uncomfortable atmosphere for someone like Bethany who does not like the smell and even though she tries to not have reasons to be at a hospital, she canât seem to help it.Alexaâs eyelids flutter briefly before she finally opens her eyes. Her gaze is blurred and unfocused at first, as though she is trying to adjust to the bright white hospital lights above. When her vision finally clear, she notices Bethany sitting there, her expression filled with concern and relief that she has woken up.âAlexa, are you awake?â Bethany leaned forward, her voice soft but laced with worry. âHow do you feel? Are you okay? I hope you donât feel hurt anywhere?âAlexa frowned, confused.She blinked a few times and slowly looked around, realizing she was in a hospital bed. The room was unfamiliar, the sterile white walls an

Arthur drummed his fingers lightly against the steering wheel as he maneuvered the car through the rush hour traffic. The Brooklyn skyline stretched ahead, the warm glow of the early evening sun casting its light all over the city.The day had been so damn long, filled with tension and unexpected revelations, and for the first time in hours, specifically since they left the tennis court, he could finally breathe, alone in the car with his wife.Beside him, Bethany stared out of the window, her mind still occupied by everything that had happened at the hospital with Charles and Alexa. The weight of family conflicts and buried emotions was exhausting. She sighed softly, rubbing her temples unconsciously.Arthur glanced at her and smirked. âYou look like youâre having a very dramatic internal monologue within yourself.âBethany turned to him, a small chuckle escaping her lips. âOh, trust me, the drama inside my head right now could rival a trending soap opera.âArthur laughed. âThen itâs

The next morning, Bethany woke up to the scent of freshly brewed coffee and the sound of birds faintly chirping outside the window or from Arthurâs morning playlist. A sleepy smile tugged at her lips as she stretched beneath the soft sheets, taking in the peaceful moment before her mind reminded her of Arthurâs infuriating secrecy about their honeymoon.She turned over and found Arthur already out of bed, though the warmth on his side of the mattress still lingered. As if on cue, the bedroom door creaked open, and there he was, holding two steaming mugs of coffee. His gaze softened when he saw her just waking up.âGood morning, sleeping beauty,â Arthur greeted, stepping closer and handing her a mug.Bethany accepted it, sighing in contentment at the first sip. âMmm. Okay, youâre forgiven for keeping secrets, just as long as the coffee effects last though.â she murmured, eyes still half closed.Arthur chuckled. âThat easy? Maybe I should have brought coffee last night when you were gril

The elevator doors slid open with its normal ping, revealing Halloway, Marsh, and Daisy as they stepped out on to the ground floor of the police station.The air in the station is as thick with tension more than she can remember each time she has been there, and each time, all the weight on her shoulders seem to triple compared to the last time and even now, it sems like it has gone up a hundred fold, the weight of unspoken words pressing down on Daisy's shoulders so much that her back visible hunches.Her footsteps echoed slightly on the cold, tiled floors as she followed Marsh to the interrogation room where John had been detained, the same one she had seen him in all those days ago.Almost two days now. The thought sent a shiver down her spine, how had it come to this? To think he had come to rescue her at the time but now, he is the one who had been held back.As they approached the heavy, reinforced door, Marsh paused and glanced at her. âYouâre ready maâam?â His tone was firm but

Silence swallowed the room whole, thick and suffocating⊠and bare.It was the kind of silence that came before the realization of something irreversible, something that canât be taken back.John sat frozen, the weight of his crimes pressing down on him like an ocean tide. His breathing was shallow, erratic, his eyes darting between Daisy and Marsh. For the first time since his detention, it looked as if the reality of his situation had truly settled into his bones. He had managed to let his hope live somehow by believing that he did not kill Sienna and that with proper investigation, he would be released but nowâŠThat hope has shattered, never to be pieced together anymore.Daisyâs confession echoed in the room, refusing to be ignored.âShe told me that John killed her mother. That he pushed her, Anita, off the bridge back at their hometown, into the water."Marsh let the words settle, savoring the sheer destruction playing out on Johnâs face. He leaned back in his chair, arms crossed,

The evening sun casts a warm glow over the smaller sized living room as Bethany watches Martha crocheting opposite her. The house is quiet, filled with the soft sounds of yarn sliding between fingers and the occasional clink of the teacups beside them.She is currently learning how to crochet and how crocheting, according to Martha, is a way of life of elderly people which they were laughing about just a few minutes before. Itâs a peaceful moment, one that Bethany savors, until her phone vibrates against the armrest.She glances down at the screen and frowns.Itâs Daisy.âStrange,â she murmurs to herself. Theyâd just seen Daisy the day before, so this early evening call feels odd. Without hesitation, she excuses herself from the room, stepping into the hallway before answering.âHello? Daisy? Is everything alright?â Bethany asks, her voice steady but tinged with concern.For a moment, all she hears is sniffling, soft and shaky. âDaisy?â Bethany repeats, a bit louder, and worried this

Divorced my Cheating Husband for his Billionaire Uncle   Fake Blonde Man Visits
It takes about an hour.One long, slow, silent hour between the couple.Bethany stubbornly keeps her back turned toward Arthur, stewing in her own complicated swirl of already fake anger and her pride not wanting to speak first.Bethany tries.God, she tries to stay mad at him but...For a full hour, she gives Arthur the full on, patented silent treatment, staring stubbornly at the wall on the other side of thr bed, answering in one word grunts if he so much as breathes too loudly so heâll catch himself from disturbing her âsleepâ.But sheâs very terrible at it.Sheâs always been terrible at it when it came to people she loved.She cracks before the sixty minute mark, because when she finally turns her head, awkwardly and carefully because of the neck brace, she sees him sitting at the very edge of her hospital bed.Not looking at her.Not doing anything visible to her.Just⊠sitting there by the bedside.Palms flat on the mattress.

The hallway is dim and seemingly never ending. Just like is her job to do this once in a while, she is going to do it once again before clocking out of work for the day.Ana Yang walks briskly down the sterile, silver lit corridor of Unique Auditingâs private floor. Her heels click sharply against the marble tile, echoing between the glass walls and chrome doors, ignoring everyone she meets on her way since she has one single focus in mind, do this and get the hell out of here.She clutches a thick folder to her chest, filled with updates, invoices, coded communications. The usual weapons of their currently losing war, sheâll be dropping off the file with the ceo before leaving.Ahead of her, the double doors to the CEO's office loom like the gates of some modern day hell.She swipes her keycard.The lock clicks and the doors swing open.Inside, the room is dim, only thin shafts of light cutting across the floor from narrow windows.And, as always, the swivel chair behind the vast mah
Divorced my Cheating Husband for his Billionaire Uncle   "Stand the fuck up."
The fourth day in the hospital after the blast seemed just as bleak as the first three days that had come and gone, waiting for Bethany to wake up and open her eyes to absolutely no avail.Arthur hasnât left her side. Not once, making sure to make sure that she is attended to every single time and cleaning her unconscious body every morning and night.The nurses have stopped trying to convince him to take a break and go home or something. At this point, heâs more permanent than the IV drip standing by her bedside. Martha comes and goes, bringing fresh clothes, home cooked meals that Arthur barely touches, whispered encouragements he barely hears but nods smilingly at anyway, the old woman already has too much on her neck so Arthur always manages to persuade her to go back home as well each time.He sits beside her now, as he has for four days, one hand curled over Bethanyâs motionless fingers, holding them as though he is using his bodyâs warmth to remind her of the way back to him, b

Time slows.Bethanyâs fingers brush the handle of the driverâs side door just as the second beep-beep fades into the air. A bird chirps from the lamp post above the lot. The wheels of a nearby shopping cart squeal as someone exits the pharmacy across the road. Arthur opens his mouth to say somethingâŠAnd the world erupts.BOOM.Itâs not just a noise., itâs a force. A living, monstrous thing that tears through air, glass, and metal like paper. The car explodes in a big explosion of fire and shrapnel, its roof splitting, hurling into the sky. The windshield vaporizes in a white hot flash and for the person standing right next to the explosion...Bethany is thrown violently backward. Not a stumble. Not a fall. She is launched into the air like a ragdoll and what goes up, always comes down.Her body hits the ground very hard. The sound is sickening, skin on pavement, ribs crunching, skull cracking and the audible sound of all of it.Then stillness.Alarms scream in every direction. The

The man walks in front of the station like heâs trying not to walk into a landmine, slow, tentative steps. He stops at the top of the stairs, takes one deep sigh, rubs his weak looking eyes and takes the few more steps into the building.He does not take big strides and no waving hands. Just quiet, precise steps through the front doors of the Precinct, wearing a weather beaten hoodie and jeans that have seen better years. His eyes are the kind that donât blink enough, too haunted to remember how.Or at least that is what it looks like to whoever cares to give him a glance.At the front desk, Officer Laney gives him the once over. Sheâs halfway through sipping her third iced latte when she asks, âCan I help you sir?âThe man doesnât answer at first, first choosing to check if she is a police officer since she is in civilian clothes, then seeing her badge in her hands, he sighs audibly before responding, sayingâŠâI need to talk to someone. Someone in charge of a particular case here.âL

Rumors begin less than three days later.Apparently, grabbing a cup of coffee with a beautiful female Major is grounds for rumors, and even people whom you donât know who begin to study your every move. The rumors, with truths in them however, rage on the barracks.They spread like heat on dry bush. Fast, wild and pretty much unstoppable. A Major seen sneaking smiles at a Lieutenant during drills, the same Lieutenant caught slipping out of the officer's quarters too early in the morning.Chara doesnât as much as flinch when she hears then, sheâs pretty much used to the weight of judgment.Chara doesnât pretend to care, not at all.She keeps her chin high, her stride sharp like the boss lady that she is, like no one dares say it to her face, because they really do not dare say it to her face.But Mason hears it.He hears them and unlike Chara with her own steely indifference, he is not indifferent to it.And it gets harder to ignore, mostly because it is not all about him but her.Mason

It is a new day on the barracks, the morning frills are done and so are evening ones, itâs just past the time for everyone to have dinner but someone is not headed to the cafeteria for food.The knock on the door announces his arrival to his caller.Major Charaâs office is dimly lit but bright enough fir the time of the day, considering she is in the male fields, she knows just how to be careful enough to not have too much light on, not too much to help the stalkers peek through the window at her perfectly figured body. Sheâs currently halfway through dressing, uniform pants already snug around her waist, boots laced to perfection, but her shirt still hanging on the back of a chair.âCome in,â Chara calls, her voice calm.She doesnât bother rushing. She knows exactly who it is and why she has sent for him.The door opens, and then nothing.No footsteps. No greeting.Just silence from who it is that stands at the door.Private First Lieutenant Mason Campbell.She turns slightly, still
Divorced my Cheating Husband for his Billionaire Uncle   Final Judgement
The courtroom is brightly lit, smells like polished wood and paper and different, different smells of perfumes and cologne.It's still early in the morning, the sun barely slanting through the tall and somewhat dusty windows, but the room is already full, a lot of people seem to be quite interested in the case and other than that, there are also students who have come to just witness one and some other purposeful individuals, albeit, the courtroom is filled. The silence is thick, every cough or chair scrape feeling louder than it should because every sound that is not inevitable is not allowed in the court, it should always be bone silent and they all try to keep to the rule, although the silence can feel a bit suffocating but they canât help it.At the defense table, John Worth stands stiffly, his head cast downwards staring at his feet or at the floor, either, wearing the same annoyingly orange jumper he has worn to every hearing in the past week.His hands rest by his sides, fisted

Detective Reynolds has never hated walking down this damned hallway more than he actually does now, with what he knows his mission it, he does not look forward to the next few minutes since heâll be walking down the same hall again.The keys jingle in his hand, cold metal biting into his palm as he squeezes it more than he should, causing himself pain. He passes the front desk, the vending machines, the bulletin board with the crooked missing persons flyer... all of it feeling a little more annoying than usual.For the first time in a very long time, he regrets his job and for once wishes that he was in a position of power to refute the corrupt order that he is about to go ahead and act out. He had spoken to Daisy Worth just some minutes ago before he decided to accept his fate and do as ordered unless he wanted to risk his job, and even if he does risk his job for the sake of his integrity, the five bastards will still get released anyway so there is basically no point dragging out t
