A Failure
Last Updated:
2025-01-02 19:13:30Without waiting for Clara to respond, Xavier walked out of the ward. Clara buried her face in her hands as she started to cry loudly.
Everything kept getting worse the moment she thought it would get better. What is she supposed to do? Where is she supposed to go? She was so sure her parents wouldn't accept her back.
She was also sure they would have heard the news.
Dr. Griffo walked back into the room, Clara hurriedly wiped her tears as she looked up at him.
He gave her a look but Clara forced a smile.
“I am really sorry about this ma’am. If there is anything I can do to help, I will.” He said and Clara nodded.
He is their family doctor, he isn't a stranger so he knows a lot.
“Can you get me a ride?” She asked and sniffed.
“Of course, ma’am.”
~
Clara sat in the car and watched the chauffeur drive and at the same time, she was fighting her tears. She was in the car the doctor arranged for her and as dumb as it sounds, she was heading to Xavier’s mansion.
For the last time, she just wanted to try her luck. If she can talk to Xavier, she could plead with him and he might accept her back.
She arrived at the mansion and got out of the car, she watched the car drive off before proceeding to enter.
As she got to the gate, she was stopped by the security.
“I’m sorry ma’am. Mr. Blackwell asked me not to let you in again. He also dropped this saying they were your only belongings.” He said as he handed her her phone and purse.
With trembling hands, Clara slowly took them.
“Can you please let me in?” She asked as tears welled up in her eyes again. The security was about to respond but he was interrupted by a voice.
It was Kathrine’s voice. She showed up and Clara felt a lump in her throat. The security bowed and walked away leaving both of them.
“Do you want anything? The last time I checked, you don't live here anymore and you are supposed to be at least ten feet away from this mansion.” She said proudly.
Clara nodded as she ignored everything she said. All she wants is to see Xavier.
“I want to see Xavier. Can you please tell him I am here?” She asked, trying so hard to not make the tears drop and her voice cracking.
“I don't think Xavier wants to see you, he made the rule himself.” She replied with a smile and Clara nodded.
Forcefully, she wanted to make her way in but Clara pushed her roughly and she fell.
“Tch. So pathetic. It's better you accept it bitch. You have no place in this house anymore. You lost and I won. Now, get off this property before I get the guards to throw you out.” She threatened and closed the gate before walking away.
Clara sniffed as she slowly got off the floor, she didn't know what hurt more. The bruise on her arm or the pain in her heart.
It really was over, she lost Xavier and everything.
She had nowhere else to go except a place, her parent's house. She knows they won't accept her but she could at least try.
With the last dollar bill in her purse, she took a cab to her parent’s house.
She arrived and headed to the front door. Just as she was about to press the doorbell when she got to the front door, the door opened revealing her mother.
“Mum.” Clara called faintly.
She had a stern look on, it was obvious the news about her divorce had already gotten to them.
“And what are you doing here?” She asked.
“I… I... “ Clara stuttered as she thought of what to say.
“Do you know the news trending in the city right now?” She asked and folded her arms.
“The news about your divorce is what is trending right now. Everyone in the city knows about it. The Blackwells cut your father off in every business deal they had, you have ruined our family.”
“Mum, I’m sorry. I didn't... “
“I don't want to hear it. Until you settle with your husband, you are not welcome here. You are a disgrace, Clara. You have always been a disgrace.” She said and Clara started to cry.
“Please, let me in. I have nowhere to go, I really don't know where to go. Please, mum.”
“Don't call me mum. I am not your mother.” She snapped at Clara and she flinched.
“We took you in and raised you, the least you could do is stay married and we stay rich but you just couldn't because you are nothing but a failure.”
Clara whimpered as she watched her mother insult her.
“You don't have a home here, get out.”
Immediately, Clara fell to her knees.
“Please let me in. I’m pregnant.” She cried and her mother scoffed.
“Go to hell with it!” She cursed and slammed the door in her face.
Clara froze as the realization hit her.
She really has nowhere to go! No one to turn to!
She has nothing and she is pregnant!
She started to panic and cry, she got up and breathed heavily as she made her way out of the house.
She tried to stay calm but all the hurtful words said to her came rushing in. She was glad it was dark, no one could see her crying.
She made her way to the streets and looked around. Her tears kept falling, she had no idea of what to do.
It all happened so fast. Twenty four hours ago she was a wife to a billionaire but now, she is nothing!

She got in and looked around, it was empty. Just a middle-aged lady was behind the counter. Clara walked to the counter and the woman looked up at her. She recalled she had no money on her and thought of how to plead with the woman. She wasn't used to doing this, she used to be the wife of a billionaire, and she gets whatever she needs without asking.“Are you going to keep staring like you have seen a ghost or you are going to place your order?” The woman asked, snapping her out of her thoughts.“Oh, yeah. Sorry.” Clara muttered and exhaled heavily.“Ma’am, I... ““I don't give free food. If yo

As she passed, the guests kept staring at her, wondering who she was and why she was dressed that way.

She got to the back and went through a door, she found the waiters and the maids, it was a kitchen. She had never been to that part of the house before because she had no reason to. “Hey, you.

His sister laughed and rushed out of the house and got to the car first.“I won, I won!” She yelled and Kaylen groaned angrily as he struggled with the guard.“Why did you stop me?” He screamed at the guard as he dropped him carefully.“You almost fell, sir. I had to, you could have gotten hurt.” The guard apologized and bowed his head.“It was none of your business!” He yelled and Kaylee laughed at him as she walked back into the living room.“He was only doing his job.” They heard their mother say and they both turned to see her walking i

It was coming from the dining room.She walked into the room and they both paused when they saw her.“Are you both going to tell me what this argument is about?” She asked as she took a seat in between them.“You are going out?” Kaylen asked with a frown as he noticed her outfit. “Yes.” Clara replied as she dished her meal.“Why?” He asked.“Because I have a business meeting.” “Are you going to keep us indoors here too? I think we deserve to go out.” Kaylee said.“Yes, Clara.” Kaylen said sternly and she shot him a glare. Her children are nothing alike, Kaylee is calm, kind, smart, and loving while Kaylen is the opposite. He is smart too, he is just playful and stubborn.“You guys will go out, a lot. Just anticipate, I have so much in store for both of you.” She said with a smile and Kaylee giggled while Kaylen rolled his eyes.“We will believe it when it happens.” He said

He couldn't stop thinking about Clara, he got curious too.“Are you sure it was her?” He heard a voice ask, interrupting his thoughts.

It's been five years dude.”“I know.” “And you are saying she showed up out of the blue as a billionaire?” Carl scoffed.“Yes.” Xavier replied.“Oh, please.” He chuckled and fell back on the chair.“This isn't funny.” Xavier glared at him.“Why are you so bothered about it though? If she is back, what does it have to do with you?” Carl asked and Xavier stared at him in disbelief. Is his best friend really dumb?“It has everything to do with me.” Xavier raised his voice. “Because she wants to invest in your company?” He asked and Xavier ran his hand through his hair.
