All Chapters of He Divorced Me. Now He Wants Me Back: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

The trip was supposed to last for a whole week, but after Jotham’s accident, it was wrapped up, and they packed to go back to West Fort City. Mirabel lingered at the back because she needed to act immediately before she lost completely. She looked for Jotham but couldn't find him in the receiving area.She found him at the edge of the woods, something was troubling him. Looking out, he knew he was missing out on important info that he had intended to attend to when he got back to the resort. “Found you.”Jotham kept quiet like the disturbance would go away if he acted like she wasn’t there. She got the hint but she didn’t leave either.“What’s this business of calling Julie your wife?” She took a defensive stance in front of him to show that she meant business.“Of course, I’ll call her my wife because that is what she is?” he was puzzled by her outburst.“I don’t know what happened while you were both gone, but Julie is not your wife; you’ve never been married. The only woman you’v

Mirabel had tipped off the paparazzi without thinking through the consequences for Jotham, who valued his private moments.She thanked Julie for her efforts in making sure her fiance was well taken care of. Then, she proceeded to ask Jotham for the engagement ring now that he had confirmed their relationship status.Jotham had begrudgingly brought it out and given it to her after she explained that it would be a hassle having to explain to the public why she wasn’t wearing her ring after the trip.Many speculations about them were already circulating in online spaces about how he had sustained the injury at the resort.It would be unheard of for her not to be with him in the hospital; people would say that she was only an attention-seeking whore that didn’t care about the man she was about to marry.“The people would probably be right,” Jotham muttered, already fed up with Mirable's antics.At least she had the decency to have his personal assistant bring him a change of clothes so he

Once Mirabel was gone, Julie immediately asked Trevor, “Did you think she suspects anything?” “I’d be more surprised if she didn’t.” Trevor moved to sit down beside her. “She probably thinks we’re not really together but that’s about it. I don’t think she’ll figure out who the twins belong to.”Julie cast a worried glance up. “I hope she doesn’t realize who the father of the twins is. I can't afford to let Jotham take my babies." Because Julie knew that if Jotham ever found out they were his, he'd take them from her.“You’re never going to tell them who their father is, are you?" He asked. It was a tough choice to make considering the fact that she had severally dreamy of a perfect nuclear family. Her, Jotham and the two kids, living a happy ever after. Having dinner together and going on vacations. But that might be impossible now. “It’s for the best.” That was what she tried to tell herself, that was all she had to believe. The thought of ever being together with Jotham again jus

Marcus paid the bill and helped her back into her jacket. Julie only realized that she wasn’t as sober as she thought when it was time to walk to the door.Her head suddenly felt hazy and her steps unsure. She knew the wine had had alcohol in it, but it was only enough to get her a bit tipsy.“I think there was something wrong with the wine. I don’t feel good,” she was saying to Marcus when she suddenly tripped, but luckily, he was able to catch her on time.“Careful doctor,” his voice was filled with concern. She leaned on him until they made it outside. Immediately the air hit her face, she started to feel nauseous, and the world around her started to spin. She blinked severally to make her sight steady but everything was in threes.“Marcus, I think there’s something wrong with me.” her words were slurred.In her haze, Julie could’ve sworn that she’d heard Mirabel’s voice. She tried to steady herself as they made the long walk back to the car. She exhaled deeply when her back hit t

By the time he finished cleaning her, her temperature had gone down. He took off his shirt and clothed her with it. He finally laid her down on his bed and covered her with the duvet. Something was wrong with her but he couldn’t place it.He left the room to call one of his doctor friends. “Can you come over now? It’s kind of urgent.”“Don’t tell me you were shot and you need me to perform some miracle and stitch you up.”“How did you even come up with that conclusion? I’m not the freaking mafia.”“Then why do you need a doctor in the middle of the night?Jotham sighed, he hated being questioned. If he asked for someone then they should be there as fast as they could not interview him. “If I didn’t need you as much as I do now, I would’ve hung up the phone on your ass.”There was hearty laughter. “Of course, I know. That’s why I’m making the most of the moment. I’ll be there in five.He was there in fifteen minutes, and Jotham was pissed because Julie had gotten feverish again, and
