All Chapters of Dominant Husband: Her worth: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

I turned my head to look at the trainer. Equally, the woman seemed shocked. She opened her mouth widely, staring at Adrienne like a confused person.  "Hello there?" The old woman squeezed her already wrinkled face. "Is there a problem? What do you mean? If you don't do the practical, there's automatically no point in you having to come here." Adrienne shook her head slowly, blinked again. "I want a different pair. I reject this person, and I don't think asking for another pair should be a problem." "Young lady." The woman frowned slightly. "First, do you realize you're causing a commotion here? And second, I'm so sorry, but you've got to accept any project partner given to you. The computer pairs everyone according to their admission numbers and names. It's not like we can actually do anything about it." I kept watching the weird drama. What else could I do? Or was I supposed to reject her as we

Adrienne———— "Thanks, Mommy." I grinned as I spoke to Mom over the phone. My lips pulled into a pout, my eyelashes batting like that of a child who was cajoling his mom for a lollipop.  "Is your course a stressful one?" She queried.  "Hm-hm. It's not too stressful. It's quite fine. And I'm really happy here. A lot of people like me. I feel loved." Saying that alone, she sobbed. I rolled my eyes, surprised at how well she could be emotional.  "I'm so glad you're happy." Her voice was shaky, probably because she was weeping. "I can finally sleep well at night." I giggled. "Drama queen." She laughed for a while. And after a moment of telling me how bored she always was, she said “goodbye”, and hung up immediately.  Hunching a hard sigh, I leaned my back against the comfy sofa. S

This was weird. Too weird.  It was almost two hours since Adrienne and I had started this project, but I still couldn't learn to be connected to what we were doing. The fact that I was with the woman I had once been married to, was a really crazy feeling. Again, she seemed so different.  When we had been married, I thought she was some kind of dumb person. But now that she was explaining this project to me, I could tell she was quite knowledgeable. That was probably a reason many of our trainers liked her.  "Do you get that?" She snapped me out of my thoughts. Oh jeez, I had completely forgotten she was explaining something to me.  My eyes flared open. "Huh? Get what?" I immediately regretted that I asked that. She'd know I hadn't been listening to her.  "Really?" Her eyebrows creased in an intense glower. Slamming her palm against the table, she stood up

Adrienne________ Studying on my bed, I couldn't help but grumble at myself. I was so stressed out for no particular reason. It was probably because I had been studying too much these days.  Water. I had to drink water first.  About to get up so I'd get water from the kitchen, my phone rang from the bed. I rolled my eyes before grabbing the buzzing thing. Seeing it was Sebastian, I was a little nervous.  "Hey?" I greeted as soon as I picked up.  "Um, good evening." His voice was thick, beautiful and boring as usual. I wanted to roll my eyes, but I decided to be nice. It wasn't even as if he had said anything wrong.  "Evening too. You need something?" I asked.  He cleared his throat. "Well, I just want you to know I'll be a little late for tomorrow's project. I've got so much work to do." 

I watched them as they hugged passionately. I was so angry, but what could I do? He was my ex-husband, she was my best friend. If I reacted, I could hurt Claire's feelings. The bad thing was, he was deceiving her. What was he going to gain by deceiving many women? She hadn't stopped crying. She was even sobbing so hard, crying as if she got hit by a strong hammer. What confused me was why she was crying. Did Sebas do something to her as well? Why was she being this emotional?  "My baby." He smiled, stroking her hair. Baby? She was his baby? This was so annoying. Couldn't they respect the fact I was here?  "Se-Se-Sebastian." She wept harder. Maybe I had to help her out. He had probably broken her heart before.  "Claire?" I was kind of worried. I soothed her back, trying to catch a glimpse of her face. "Is something going on? Why are you crying?" I raised my eyes to
