Divorce

Vivian’s heart raced as she approached the building for the first time. She had always imagined visiting him here, and today would bring her imagination to reality.She brushed her hands down her dress, straightening it, trying to calm the nervousness she was feeling. But the moment she stepped through the doors, her excitement turned sour. Faces turned toward her, eyebrows furrowed, searching her whole being like she was some alien.Vivian approached the front desk with her head held high. “I’m here to see Mr. Norman. I’m his wife,” she said.The receptionist looked her up and down and replied without a second thought. “I’m sorry, ma’am, but you don’t have an appointment.”“But I’m his wife,” Vivian repeated, her voice hinting desperation. “I don’t need an appointment to see my husband.”The receptionist’s eyes were on her. “I’m sorry, but Mr. Norman is very busy. You will have to come back another time.”Vivian clenched her fists, feeling her cheeks burn as several nearby employee

Nightstand

Charles leaned back in his chair, a smile stretching across his face as he looked her up and down with contempt. “Your fair share?” he sneered. “What exactly do you think you’re worth, Vivian? You’re nothing. You contributed nothing to this company or my life. Whatever you think you’re owed, you’re mistaken.”Vivian clenched her fists, feeling the state of humiliation and rage surge in her chest. She had had enough of his insults. He had begged her to help him out, but now, he pretended like he did not even recall.He was supposed to be her husband; the man she had given up her dreams and opportunities for, the man she had stood by, believing in him when he was at his lowest. And now he was discarding her like she was worthless and a piece of garbage.“Nothing, huh?” she shot back, her voice shaking. “Well, remember this moment, Charles. I gave up my dreams and contributed to the growth of this company. Just bear it in mind that I will make you regret it.”"What company are you talk

Pregnant

Vivian adjusted her uniform, hoping it looked presentable as she began her shift at the bar. It was not the life she had imagined for herself, but she needed the money. She was in a new city, with no one to lean on, and she was determined to make it on her own, no matter how exhausting it felt.But that night, she was really tired. Her head felt fuzzy, and she kept acting clumsy. By the time her shift ended, she was more than exhausted. She pushed through the back door, stepping into the cold night and making her way home.Suddenly, the blinding headlights of a car came out of nowhere, and before she could react, she felt a sharp pain and she collapsed on the ground.***When Vivian opened her eyes, the white ceiling and walls of the hospital room greeted her. Her body ached all over. She blinked, trying to focus, her mind struggling to process what had happened.The door opened, and a doctor walked in, wearing a smile. “Miss, it’s good to see you’re awake.”She tried to sit up, wi

Contract marriage

Vivian sat alone in her apartment, her hands shaking as she stared down at the business card Ralph had given her, his name printed boldly across it.She had come here to escape the mess of her past, to start fresh and carve out her own life without anyone’s help or pity. But here she was—jobless, pregnant, and uncertain of what the future held.She decided to continue her life and pretend that nothing happened. As she was working, a customer crossed the line, grabbing her arm and pulling her close. Angrily, she yanked her arm free and slapped him hard across the face. "How dare you humiliate a customer? Do you know who he is?" Her boss yelled at her."Sir, you saw—""You are fired!" ***Taking a deep breath, she picked up her phone and dialed Ralph’s number. He answered almost immediately as if he had been expecting her call.“Vivian,” he greeted. “I take it you’ve made a decision?”She closed her eyes and sighed. “Yes. Let’s meet. I want to discuss the contract.”When she arrived

Little revenge

“Well, well, look who decided to show her face,” he sneered, trying to cut in. “I didn’t think they let just anyone in here.”Vivian’s jaw tightened. His words stung, but she forced herself to hold herself up high, meeting his gaze with composure. “Charles,” she said smoothly, “anyone can get in here, you know?"He smirked, crossing his arms. “What is a nobody like you doing here? Thought you would be hiding in some apartment by now.” His gaze drifted over her dress, looking as if he were searching for some flaw to point out. “Or did you hitch a ride with someone you found at the bottom of the barrel just like I did?”She had expected insults, so she came prepared. “Actually, I was invited. And you’d be surprised, Charles, how much the world has to offer once you get rid of rotten meat.”His smirk faded, a flash of irritation passing over his face. He had not anticipated her quick retort, and she took satisfaction in the faint look of surprise in his eyes.He scoffed, but there was a

Quick dance

An unsure look crossed Vivian's facial features as she stared back at those waiting for her response. Ralph just mopped out a chance for her to get a slice of her revenge against her ex - husband. "As much as I don't want to see your face, I feel like we should hear what he has to say." She struck a glance at Ralph, "How about we schedule a ten minute meeting?" A sly smile appeared on her face.Charles was flabbergasted as he stared at Vivian in anger. How dare she stomp on him with disrespect like this? Ten minutes meeting? What is he? Someone who wants to have a cheap interview?"Vivian, I can't believe --" He was about to say but Ralph cut him off immediately. "My beautiful wife has spoken and it is my obligation to follow whatever she says." Ralph flashed his wife a cute smile. "Come on, Charles, ten minutes should be enough for you to say whatever you want to say." He added.Charles' contorted face gave away how much anger he was feeling. "Yes but --" He was cut off again."You

Family house

She looked in between them confusingly. "Family house? Are we not going to your own house?" She questioned. "No, we are going to my parents house." He answered without looking at her. Vivian was dumbstruck. "How can you just give the announcement all of a sudden? You are supposed to talk to me first about this." She reared in anger."Why do I need to inform you first?" He asked in a casual tone.She was silent for a few seconds. "Because we are married." She said,"We are married only in name. I can't speak of my personal business with you.""But this is not personal! I am involved! I am not even prepared at all." Vivian argued with a crying voice.Ralph scoffed, "I won't speak to you about anything. I do my things my way." He insisted."Get me out of the car then." She suddenly said, Ralph threw an unfazed look at her like she bored him. "You don't have a choice, Vivian. We are going to see my parents." Vivian tried to unlock the door, forgetting that it was still moving but foun

Brothers

"Do you know Charles?" Ralph's mother interrupted and Vivian's entire body got sweaty immediately. She trembled slightly as she couldn't look at the woman in the face. How does she begin to explain? It doesn't make sense. Is she supposed to start telling them how Charles is her Ex - husband and how she married his brother again, Ralph?It seems like she is a leech in their family. This is totally absurd. Immediately, she knew she couldn't stay there. She didn't think she could do this anymore. She never should have come here in the first place.Vivian Jaws tightened as she pushed the dining chair backwards and wanted to stand up. Ralph's hand fell on her thighs. His face was expressionless as she glanced at him. What is he doing? No, he isn't trying to stop her because they both know this wouldn't work out.All she has to do is walk away from all these. She has no choice, she will have to work away from both of them, away from her problems and her plans. She has to forget about her r
