Almyra's POV,My phone rang from the sitting room and I ran downstairs. "Who is it?" I called out to Xavier when I got to the sitting room but I shook my head when I saw him serious with his phone."I don't know," he did not look away from his phone. "I'm busy, sorry."I hissed and ignored him but before I reached the phone it had stopped ringing and I sighed in frustration."You could have just checked it!" I turned to him who now felt guilty. "You won't have died if you did that you know?" "Actually, I am very sorry about that," he threw his phone on the couch and took a sip from his coffee.I took the phone along with me and walked to the room where I was arranging my wardrobe since I had scattered it yesterday just to pick the cloth that I would be wearing to go out today.The phone rang again and I felt like I broke the law of gravity just to pick the call, it was Malum this time."Hey," I smiled and sat on the sofa in the room before heaving a sigh of relief. "How is it going
Almyra’s POV “We need to talk”. Xavier sighed before asking so calmly, “What is it now? If it’s money…” “I want a divorce, Xavier.” I could almost hear a pin drop, but in a flash, his cutlery hit the plate; just like I expected, he was about to continue eating like he didn’t hear me, so I repeated, “I want a divorce.” His eyes tried holding mine, but I looked away; I didn’t trust myself, especially with him. “Why?” “Lately, I have been faithful in sending your daily upkeep.” There he goes again; of all things to ask, it had to be money he pinpointed. Without waiting for his permission, I opened the envelope containing the divorce papers and signed it before pushing it over him. “I want nothing from you, not your money or properties, Xavier,” I reassured, promising myself that the tears threatening to fall didn’t. He glanced at the paper before scoffing, “You are serious?” “Yes, you can hasten this up and sign. Before you return from work, I will leave your house
Almyra's POVMy eyes widened in horror as I felt a wave of nausea wash over me. I thought she was sick and had to be flown out?How could he do this to me? This was the last straw, and there was no way in hell I would change my mind. I held back my tears, but the realization that I was letting go caused tears to flow freely from my eyes. While I waited and prayed for our union, he lay with Kitara…I felt so much like a fool for staying and entertaining his wade of cash.My sniffs soon turned into sobs, and I don’t know how long I cried, but when I finally got a hold of my emotions, Ben was long gone, and thankfully, he had given me enough time to cry in solace.Xavier wasn’t back yet, so I walked my walk of shame into the house with the gifts Malum had given the rest of the waitresses to gift me; upon entering the room, I stacked them away before entering the shower.In there, another set of tears threatened, but I was done crying for a man who didn’t value me enough. It was funny how
Xavier's POVI didn't love Almyra and couldn't care less if she was leaving, but there was no way I was going to sign a divorce if I didn't know what she was saying and who those people were."So that bitch got herself a man and was just feeding on Xavier all this while?" I heard my mom whisper out loud as I barged into the house. Thankfully, they weren’t there when I made a mockery of myself by chasing after her."What happened?" she asked, seeing my already dirty clothes, but I ignored her and entered the room, making sure to bang the door shut.Shit!I looked around the room, and all I could see was everything I had bought for her in the last two years. Now that I think about it, it makes me wonder where Mom and Kitara got the idea that she was after me for money, and that had been her agenda all along. The credit alert still haunted me.She had sold her body or something else because I couldn’t explain how someone who, according to her data, was an orphan entered expensive cars an
Almyra's POV"Are you okay?" Malum asked and I squeezed his hand in response.Xavier looked so rough and knowing I was the reason filled me with satisfaction and to top that the shocked expression on Xavier's face had a proud smile spreading across my lips as I halted to take a quick look at him. My entry into the even was sure not expected, especially with the people that buzzed around me — Malum, whose hand was holding mine quite intimately as planned. My eyes caressed him, from his blue eyes that glared at both Malum and the triplets with hate to his lips and that face I once adored. My eyes meet with Kitara that looked like she sole wanted to be where I was...She was going to be shocked by what i had in store for the Farrells.Kaleb, Keith and Keiran, had also towered around me, almost in a protective circle where they could ensure my safety from any scoundrel that tries to come my way."Be nice boys" I whispered underneath my voice.It was just so satisfying, seeing how obvious
Almyra's POV"Almyra! How dare you?"Even though I've decided not to let my mood be ruined by her, I also wouldn't stand back and get insulted by this slut that had ruined my dream while resting comfortably at the sidelines.She glared at me real hard, her eyes bulging out wide while veins on her neck popped out but I didn't care. "How dare I what Kitara? call you a slut or slap the shit out of your mouth?" I asked her while yawning boredly."How dare you hit me !?" She growled after stuttering, her grudge evident in her tone. "Wrong answer!, how dare you say that bullshit about me to my face with no fear whatsoever?""I dont know if perharps your dilusional mind told you tht you were still talking to the Mrs. Farrell who once upon a time let you run over her but let this be the fucking last tim you would spill nonsense about me" I snapped back. "The next time you try it, You won't forget the consequences...""Standing before you is Me, Almyra and in an event like this you wouldn't
Xavier's POVAlmyra was here!I could almost smell and feel her, but she wasn't with me!Kitara desperately tried to cling to my arm as we walked out of the bathroom, but I was too focused on the man Almyra had locked her hands with. The only problem was that he wasn't me, and I so desperately longed to tear him away from her.My mom kept throwing snide remarks as we sat down, and she mentioned a name that stuck: The Stone Triplets. I couldn't help but wonder how she knew those boys who frequented the news daily.I watched as she laughed at what her escort said before rubbing her hand over his arm.My blood boiled as I fumed at the sight of them that way—not just my blood boiling but also my heart growing heavy with annoyance. She belonged beside me. "Your ex-wife seems to have hit the jackpot because her necklace was at the last auction I attended and sold for five million dollars," Mom said, eyeing her with nothing but malice.I wondered who this Almyra was. From where did her sudd
Almyra's POVI was waiting!Keeping an eye of Kitara was quite harder seeing as we were sitting together but rather Our seat was in front so I set up Keiran."Do I really have to?"Kieth joked about how he wouldnt want the press to think his elder sister was able to pish hum around causinf his scowl to grow."Or would you raher have me there...pleae it's just until she wants somehing" i pleaded and he just groaned which was enough answer for me.Kitara had frustrated me till I left.This was just a way to tease her.The vintage handbag was beautiful and as soon as Keith mumbed that she had whispered to Xavier, I placed my bid. She was no fool so she should have decoded by now that I was purposefully buying the bag, just to get on her nerves and comparing this to all she had done to meover the years, it was just the tip of the iceberg."$15,000." She threw back. "$15,000 going.. going.." the bidder said enticingly. I chuckled, was that all she got? I went on, "$40,000!" "Wow! $40,0
