Joint Weddings and Joint Divorces Chapter 5
Juliet laughed through her tears. "Elsie, you looked really cool just now when you cursed them out."I teased her, "I'll look even cooler when I shave my hair off after the divorce."Then, I held her hand and went to the nurse station to fill in the discharge forms. I even planned to find a place to live and get it ready for both of us. After that, I would get my hair styled along with Juliet to embrace our post-divorce freedom in our best forms.However, we were rudely shoved away by someone near the nurse station."Nurse, call a doctor! She's taken a lot of sleeping pills!" We were shocked to find Zach carrying Jenna in his arms. Her eyes were tightly shut.The nurse immediately attended to Zach as he was in his police uniform.Following that, Soren hurried after them with a panicked expression. He briefly paused when he saw me before taking it out on me. "Eliza, I never thought you were capable of such evil! I'll hold you responsible if anything bad happens to Jenna today!"

Soren froze in that instant. He was still in disbelief as he took the hospital report and looked at my flat stomach. Eventually, he loosened his grip. "A stillborn? How could it be a stillborn…" he murmured before aggressively interrogating me as if he had lost his sanity. "Tell me—how did the baby end up a stillborn? What have you done to our child?"Were you jealous because I didn't come home, so you secretly had an affair that resulted in the death of our child? Well? Answer me!" His face contorted into a terrifying scowl. It was as though he could burst at any second with rage. Still, I only snorted. "Don't paint me out to be someone as vile as you, Soren. As for what happened, shouldn't you think deeper about what I said when I called you a few days ago?"Soren's eyes widened with surprise and fear as if he dared not recall our phone call.I glared daggers at him. "Didn't I tell you that my stomach hurt and I was bleeding a lot? Did I not ask you to save me? "What did you

Zach seemed wounded by those words.I grabbed Juliet's hand and said, "Let's get out of here."There was a saying that it was better to deal with a problem in its early stages instead of later. Although I birthed a stillborn, I was lucky it was through a natural birth. Unlike me, Juliet went through an abortion, so her weakened body needed a proper recovery. I feared she would have lingering illnesses if she continued to be this angry. Her husband didn't care about her, but I did.Little did I expect Soren to grab my wrist just then. "You can't leave! Even if our child died because of the fire, I know you have something to do with Jenna being forced to end her life! You and Juliet must go with Zach to the police station to be interrogated!"That was when Zach snapped out of his daze. "That's right! You two can't leave! Jenna has always been kind and has good relations with her friends. Nobody would harm her. "The only explanation is you two were jealous for no reason. You use s

"No, I…" Soren's face paled. It was as though he had suffered a heavy blow. His lips quivered, yet he couldn't bring himself to say anything.I thought back to when Juliet helped me out of the fire. I remembered the grating, dry sensation in my throat as I choked on the fumes. Not only that, but my stomach hurt, and I bled. The worst part was my entire body hurt, as though all my bones were broken.I was beyond helpless at that moment. I wanted my darling husband to be there and comfort me. Even when I was drifting in and out of consciousness, all I pictured was Soren's face.I eagerly hoped to see him once I opened my eyes. I wanted to hear him say, "Don't be scared. I'm here now."Alas, none of that happened. Instead, I was alone as I birthed my stillborn child and fainted.How could I not loathe Soren for it? Yet, now that I saw his true colors, I suddenly felt there was no point in saying all of that to him. He would never realize his mistakes. Soren would only prove how "

Soren seemed so meek and cautious in that instant. I had never seen him act this way when we were dating and throughout our marriage. He was like a nervous child who had gotten caught for doing something wrong.That said, he should have realized his mistakes sooner. "So what if you know you messed up? It doesn't mean I have to forgive you." I calmly met his eyes and shook my head. "There's no use delaying things, Soren. You and I are over for good.""But we've investigated the truth, Elsie! Jenna was the one who cut the wire in our building's electrical room. She then put a timed device that would ignite into flames there and went to a skyscraper dozens of miles away. She staged an abduction to get Soren and I to rescue her!"She did all that to see who we'd choose when she and you two were in critical danger. Moreover, she put the note inside the parcel. You were right about it!"Jenna has always been rotten to the core, yet Soren and I thought she was innocent and kind. It's

Honestly? I would have been moved, felt sorry, and forgave Soren if this had happened in the past. However, the current me would always be reminded of the heartbreaking memories. Soren didn't hesitate when running to deliver pads to Jenna in the middle of a rainy night. In contrast, he told me to put up with the cold I had accidentally caught during my first trimester. He wanted me to wait until dawn before he would take me to the hospital. He also yelled at me for acting pitiful to garner his attention when I screamed after being startled by a snake at home. Yet, he would sacrifice his lunch break, running from his workplace to Jenna's house to chase away some moths for her.Soren knew Jenna was intentionally showing off how desirable she was when she invited him to join her blind date with a wealthy heir. Even so, he asked Zach to take time off work and accompany him there.Unfortunately for Juliet, she had just gotten pregnant and fell. Her knee swelled so much that she want

Much to my surprise, Soren and Zach ended up in a standoff. They also occasionally glanced at Juliet and me as if fearing we would sneak away.However, we didn't want to see these shameless men anymore. They were an utter waste of our breaths and lives. I briefly pondered before saying, "How about this? You'll go and buy a bouquet of flowers each, but you have to run to the florist. You aren't allowed to drive or hail a cab. We'll consider forgiving the person who returns first."While saying that, I took out my phone. "I'll start the timer now."Juliet immediately caught on to my plan. She nodded at once, saying, "Yup! We'll do just that!""Okay, Jules!""Don't worry, Elsie! I'm a firefighter, and I undergo tremendous daily training. I'll surely be faster than him!"Soren and Zach's eyes lit up with hope after hearing my suggestion. Then, they bolted down the street like their life depended on it.Juliet and I shared a smile before speedily hailing a cab. We sat in the back a

My younger sister and I were married on the same day. I was married to Soren Doyle, a fire captain, and Juliet was married to Zach Lennon, who worked as a cop. As our husbands were childhood friends, we decided to buy neighboring apartments in the same unit.Not long after the wedding, Juliet and I got pregnant. Ten days away from my due date, a fire broke out in my apartment. My place was filled with heavy smoke. The smoke triggered my contractions, and blood trickled down my legs. I could feel myself slowly losing consciousness. After some fumbling, I managed to reach my husband on the phone, only to be yelled at in annoyance."What's wrong with you, Eliza?" Soren snapped at me. "Why did you have to call me when I'm on duty? Did you know Jenna was tied on the rooftop by the suspect? Her life is literally hanging by a thread! You always cause so much trouble!"He hung up without giving me a chance to explain myself. I tried to call again, but he had turned off his phone.Just

"Why did you think I called up a divorce attorney?" Eyes closed, I took a deep breath. "Soren Doyle, I am serious about the divorce. You're the one who takes me for granted, thinking that I'll only follow you for the rest of my life."By the way, send this message to Zach too. Meet us at the courthouse this afternoon."I was met with a long silence, but I couldn't be bothered as long as I managed to get my point across.Right as I was about to hang up, Soren bellowed, "Eliza, are you dead set on stirring up trouble?"How many times do I have to explain myself? I'm just doing my job! Jenna is so traumatized that she can't sleep. Am I wrong for spending two days by her side as a friend?"Then, I heard Jenna's weak sobs in the background. "Soren, you and Zach should leave. I'm fine alone… Eliza and Juliet are pregnant, after all. I'll forever blame myself if something happens to them, and I'll feel too guilty to meet with you again."Soren replied impatiently, "Don't listen to Eli

Juliet and I relied on each other for strength as our parents passed away when we were young. We took care of each other; she was precious to me, and it would hurt me to see her in any form of pain.I couldn't believe that I dragged her into the mess due to my poor judgment of character. It was one thing for me to marry Soren, but I shouldn't have introduced Zach to my sister. They wouldn't have gotten married if it weren't for me.At the end of the day, we gave our all to our husbands. We even went through the challenges of pregnancy, only to be manipulated by Soren and Zach as they vied for Jenna's attention!Juliet let out a sudden snicker as her sobs grew heavier.I looked up and saw her raising her phone for me to see. She showed me a photo of a topless Soren with a rope tied around his waist. Jenna rested in his arms as they were lowered to the ground. And Zach, dressed in a police uniform, rushed over to them.The photo was really dramatic. Caught in the middle of two hands
