Crystal Snow POV
I tried my best to show him, love, to show him that for me, he is more important than his money.
But it did not work. Hunter was and still is the most hunted man from New York, a billionaire who can have everything and anything at any time. He was forced to marry me, a simple woman just because he needed to look good in papers like a married man and a loving person.I was easy prey because of my red and long hair like fire, my blue sparkling eyes and my slim body. I was just the perfect wife but in reality, for him, I'm nobody.I fall for him like an idiot obviously, and I tried my best every day to show him that he can trust me and he can give me a chance. But the big Hunter just ignored all my prays, all my tears and all my pain, and now I am ready to throw out the towel and leave this marriage before is too late for me.Maybe you will ask why I want to leave this marriage with a billionaire, where I can have everything and I can have an amazing life which most people just dream of.The answer is simple.After my alcoholic father sold me to Hunter's family for a few thousand dollars, two years ago to be Hunter's wife, I promised myself that I will have a happy marriage and if Hunter will not love me after these two years I will just divorce and leave for a free life.I am not happy doing this and to be honest, I will give everything I can to see just a nice gesture from Hunter, just a nice touch, just a sincere smile or just a nice word.But I learn that my wish will not be true, because Hunter is a playboy, is a good catch for any woman in this city and I know very well that he will not fall for somebody like me in this life.I was anxious, staying in our mansion kitchen, waiting for my husband to arrive and sign the papers.I felt a pain in my chest when he enters that big white door, and I had a second thoughts when I just wanted to go back and not do this. But with a lot of pain for the man I sincerely love with all my heart, I need to be strong and give myself the chance to leave and maybe in the future, maybe I will love again or I will just die alone.His big steps make a slight sound through the table I was sitting at. I had my luggage sitting beside me and I try to show nothing.I showed him all these years all my emotions and he did not appreciate anything because he considered himself better than everyone in this world and for him, I was just a stranger.He sits down in his dark blue suit and he's looking straight into my eyes. His dark black eyes are piercing and intimidating. I took a long breath, and I push the papers in front of him with a pen sitting on top.I loved him so much that just God knows, but enough is enough. Maybe he will find someone to love as well, and I give him the chance to do this. "Ready to leave?"His words coming from that low voice and masculine tone make my stomach feel empty. I was his wife, but he did not touch me at all, and he did not sleep with me these years. Maybe because he had a lot of women lining up for him any second. Who needs a red-headed like me, shy and a virgin to touch when he had just the beautiful women from this world? "Yes. I want to leave"I answered back fast, and I take a big breath again, looking into his eyes. I promise myself that I will be strong and for the first and last time, I will not show any kind of emotion. I will not let Hunter play me like usual, and I will leave with what remains of my dignity. "Ok, I don't need you anymore. I think your purpose served very well. You Know that leaving now you don't have anything from me."His lower words just destroyed me instantly, but I manage to keep them together for these ten seconds when he put the pen on that paper and sign his name. "I don't want anything from you, Hunter. " And he knew that very well. I wanted his heart, I don't have it so I will leave.Was still painful and the fact he did not care at all, looking at me like I'm making him a favour, just crushing my world.I felt my blood rushing in my body up to my face because of the pain I feel, and I just get up from the chair, clenching my hand on my luggage and pick the paper from the table, taking my purse and before I start stepping to the elevator, I just look into his black beautiful eyes for the last time maybe not realizing that I start crying and my tears left my blue eyes and roll down my cheek like a cascade of pain.Again I showed him emotions, and I hated myself right now because I did not keep it together through the end. But for Hunter is not important anyway so I left the building without looking back.Crystal Snow POV I can't recall too many nice memories with Hunter, but I can recall his voice, his posture and his smile in front of the camera. I was the perfect wife for the papers, and now I'm just a bartender in a local restaurant close to my small apartment where I'm living now. After this divorce, the clause on our contract marriage was to stay three years together before I can leave and have some money from his millions, but because I had the balls to leave early, I did not receive anything. And to be honest, I don't care. I did not care when I married, and the only thing I carried the most was Hunter. I am trying to have a normal life, I'm earning some money, and besides that, I am back to school, medical school trying to have a nurse diploma so I can have a career after. Do I still feel the pain? Yes. Is still hurting because Hunter is everywhere in papers, tv and radio. And every time is with a different woman. The tabloids take his divorce like a nice juicy story wh
Liam Hunter POV I saw her leaving the mansion with tears in her sky-blue eyes, and I was unable to stop her. I deserve this entirely. I deserve to be deserted by such an amazing and kind-hearted woman. When I married her, we shared just a small kiss which told me how pure and shy she was. But I did not want this. I did not want to be married at twenty-five years. I am the CEO of my parent's business, and for me was more important to live my life at maximum and not let any woman control my life. I did not want a burn in my life and did not want to care for somebody else. She did not deserve this pain, and clearly, she was sick enough of it, so she throws the white towel after two years. I was amazed that she survived so much but maybe was for her good. But something there is still bothering me. I think thought where Crystal didn't care about my money all along this journey. She did not request me anything in these two years she was not fussy and full of herself being married to a
Crystal Snow POV I can't believe I just heard Hunter saying he is sorry for something. This big man never said anything like this to probably anyone in his life. And I can't believe I'm falling for this crap again. But I manage to keep my shit together, and I helped him to get up, and I manage to put him in a bed over the ER room. It didn't take too much to see people noticing him very easily. He is Liam Hunter, the youngest and the biggest billionaire in America. He has his name on brands and any tv stations or magazine covers. He has a private jet and tons of money and women. It's easy to notice somebody like him. And I know from my experience. The bad part of this is people noticing me as well. I hated that so much. I hated so much to be in the spotlights. I left him on the bed, and I rush back to close the door and the curtains in that room. People become noisy, and quite frankly both of us needed some private space now. "What is wrong with you? Why are you going around the
Liam Hunter POV I was expecting a lot from her, but not this attitude. To be honest I kinda deserve it. Crystal has all the right to be mad at me and treat me like crap because I cause her so much pain. Ending up in the hospital was not the best idea for myself and my reputation. Now I needed to somehow go out of here without being seen. And this will not be easy knowing a lot of people have seen me collapsing in the ER room. So after Crystal left I phoned my best friend Seth. He was the only one I trust in my entire life, and I knew very well he is my right hand, helping me with anything I need usually. He was, and it is like a brother to me, and we know each other since middle school. His parents are friends with my parents, and we meet in a private middle school where both were some pain in the ass for the school teachers. He grows different from me, and I have short moments where I'm the envy of his life. He has his own business, a very powerful one but the difference between u
Liam Hunter After a few weeks, I was still questioning myself about Crystal and this situation. I sigh slowly, and I opened my drawer from my office desk and pick up a few papers. I was looking at that piece of paper, and I throw my hand in my hair with a long sigh this time. Those papers were our divorce papers. My signature is clear there, and my pride is coloured in that black pen signature. Yes, my fucking pride was the one signing these papers. On a different signature is the broken heart Crystal left off with that handwriting. I studied those papers for hours and days now, and I can't find the real reason I sign that. I heard my office door opening, and I look in that direction with my cold dead eyes. I was not in the mood for visitors, investors or any stupid people hanging in my office. I had a terrible few days and weeks, and I did not need anyone or anything to disturb me now. "Hei mate, ready for tonight's party?"I softened my glare when I see Seth and Angela, both look
Crystal SnowI can't believe I let myself dragged here. This party should be just for wealthy people, not for all of us. While I was married to Hunter I experienced a few parties where the hostess invited people with not the same money as the others with booming businesses and was a disaster.Wealthy people don't respect anyone, just themselves. Many times neither themselves but who I am to judge? I am a simple woman, and my colleagues convinced me to pop in for this party, not only to have a little bit of fun but because all knew I was Hunter's ex-wife and in their stupid minds have the impression that I knew a lot of people and I have a lot of connections. But nobody knows this thought is just a myth. While with Hunter I didn't make too many friends besides Seth and Angela, more because Hunter was not so impressed with me and he didn't want me to speak with people too much, being convinced that I will embarrass him.So I was in a corner most of the time to special events with him an
Liam HunterI parked my car in front of the building where the party was going on. I breathe long after passing my car keys to the valet outside. He signs "Yes" from his head and left. I tried to avoid media waiting on the door, and avoid a fuss. I wanted to go in and out fast, just to tell Crystal about the marriage and resolve it.Usually, I will not give a crap of anything, but because this girl just somehow destroyed my thoughts I needed to be honest with her one time in this life. Because I knew very well I was not honest with her all these two years. And she deserves this at least.I manage to go inside and after I passed the big white fancy door I can see a lot of people, many sitting at the tables, drinking and having a good time. Other ones have a nice dance, interacting with each other. You can see very well the difference between the people full of money and the false ones, trying just to show that they are wealthy. It's very easy to see everything. But I did not want to st
