All Chapters of Divorced But Never Letting Go: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

OLIVIAAs much as I desperately needed someone to speak up for me, I still didn’t think it was a good idea to see Adrian and Cyril fight because of me.It’s going to be a third world war. And the aftermath consequences? Disastrous, it would be. I may need more than miracles to repair the damages caused.Cyril is already suspecting that I am in a relationship with Adrian, which, of course, I denied immediately. Seeing Adrian defend me this way, Cyril would have every reason to believe he was right after all.The fact that we just sealed the deal with Uncle Dante further complicates things. Definitely, Adrian would be Dante’s representative until the end of the deal. Fight isn’t something I would wish for right now.“And who are you to stand in my way? Who gave you the audacity? Have you suddenly lost your manner of approach? Perhaps, you never had one. Stay out of my affairs for good if you don’t end up being hurt. Just so you know, I don’t give empty threats. This is my wife we’re tal

OLIVIA As Adrian drove us with his car, I kept reminiscing about the unfortunate incident that occurred in my office. I knew for sure that Cyril was a jerk. I mean, he never loved me from the beginning. What I don't understand is how he suddenly developed such hatred for me despite how I strived to ensure that he regains his memory again. To believe that he chose to dump my sorry ass shortly after regaining his memory. To worsen it all, he went back to Rene just when I had successfully secured my marriage. I had a feeling that it was going to turn out this way the moment I decided to seek help from Rene about Cyril's loss of memory. It was synonymous to entrust a bone in the hands of a dog. Surely, it's going to chew it to powder form. Now I am regretting my actions. I was engrossed in my thoughts and wasn't aware that Adrian was speaking to me. I did hear him call my name, but I ignored him. At that point, Cyril had taken over my thoughts and there was nothing I could do.

OLIVIAI couldn't bring myself to tell Kate what had transpired between Adrian and me. I wouldn’t know how she would react to Adrian not wanting to spend the rest of his life with me.“And where’s Adrian? He ought to be here. Why hasn’t he shown up yet? Are you sure he still wants to take us shopping?” Kate asked after her close observation.I thought about what Kate said and realized she might be right. It was strange that the thought hadn’t crossed my mind earlier.“I guess he’s still stuck in the car. He’s probably too tense to show up after what happened between us,” I replied, trying to keep her in suspense.My plan to frustrate Kate into giving up on her questioning wasn’t working. She was determined, almost like a detective investigating a case.“With all due respect, if you don’t speak up now, I might be forced to go speak with Adrian. Who knows? I might get lucky and get the information I need from him,” Kate dared, already moving to execute her threat.“Wait! I’ll speak now,

ADRIAN“Do we have a problem here, Adrian? You’ve been quiet lately, and it’s beginning to bother me a lot,” Olivia asked after noticing how restless I had been lately.I tried to pull myself together and pretend that everything was fine, but I just couldn’t. I still found myself trembling as I gripped the steering wheel.“Nothing for you to worry about, Olivia. It’s not something that I can’t handle. Trust me when I say I got this,” I assured Olivia, forcing a smile that reeked of confidence.The plan was to allay Olivia’s fears, but so far, it wasn’t working. Olivia wouldn’t stop asking me questions.“Like seriously, Adrian? You want me to believe the things you say when your heart is beating faster? Come on, who does that? What the fuck do you take me for? A dummy or what?” Olivia lamented bitterly.At that point, I knew I needed to tell her the truth to allow me to focus on getting away from the car that was trailing us from behind.On second thought, I doubted if Olivia would be

ADRIAN“Adrian, please. Don’t do this. You can’t just abandon us when we need you the most. I thoroughly understand that Olivia might have upset you. But please, can you not take it out on her now?” Kate bemoaned. She was taking the situation more seriously than Olivia.It was Olivia I expected to speak up and not Kate. Olivia wasn’t even making an effort to convince me. She was seated comfortably, believing that Kate would do the dirty work for her.I ignored Kate’s pleas like a plague.I didn’t do that on purpose. I wanted to trigger Olivia’s anger and force her to speak, and it worked the moment Olivia whispered in my ear, “Please, Adrian.”Her voice wasn’t audible enough because she was very ashamed of her act.I looked away, pretending not to hear her speak, even though she was seated next to me.I wanted her to speak to me with all sincerity, like she meant it.“Didn’t you hear my Boss? She just took the bold step and pleaded with you. Please forgive her and let this slide. We s
