Till Divorce Do Us Part Back Here
IVY“You are going to stay right here and wait for me, Ivy. Please, do not move an inch, talk to anyone, or even make anyone know that you are in the car,” Drew told me firmly.“Mm-mm,” I said, nodding.“I am going to go in there now and in a few minutes, I should be back out with her,” he said again.I nodded again.After waiting for a few seconds to make sure I was okay, Drew got out of the car and walked towards the front door of the mental home.I swallowed hard as I watched him enter through the door.My heart began to race faster than normal.Several months ago, I was brought to this very mental home, forced in without a say, and I had to live each day fighting for my life. Here I was again, but this time around, for something else, and with the help of Drew.He said he had a master plan, and I trusted him.What other choice did I have anyway?I had sat at the back of his tinted car, ready to lie on the floor of the car if the cops stopped him on the way for whatever reason, and
Till Divorce Do Us Part The Traitor
ALEXAI sat in the living room after having dinner, trying to get some rest, or maybe it was because I was too restless.All day, not a word from Noelle.I couldn’t stop thinking about the fact that Shirley told me that she had gone to be with Mark. I did try to get the ugly thought of what they might be doing together, being that Noelle was my best friend and she wouldn’t do something like that to me, but it just wasn’t working.“If she could lock lips with Mark and keep it away from you, then what is the guarantee that she wouldn’t do more?” A voice in my head asked me.Would anyone blame me?Why wasn’t Noelle honest enough to tell me where she was going? She simply used the excuse of going out with Shirley and Reyna, only to divert and go somewhere else.To go to Mark.If she wasn’t doing anything I shouldn’t be aware of, why then did she think to hide it from me?There were several thoughts that kept running through my mind, riling me up, and I really hated to feel this way becaus
Till Divorce Do Us Part Rage And Relief
MARK“They will be right out in a second,” Mona told me.I nodded.Then she came and sat really close to me. I didn’t push her away or act uncomfortably. On the contrary, I allowed Mona to think that she had gotten exactly what she wanted from me.If she couldn’t succeed with Ace, she certainly couldn’t succeed with me.Ace told us what he had had to endure with Mona in their few years of marriage, and that included cheating.“I am not upset with you, Mark, because you are not the only man she cheated on me with. Right on our matrimonial bed, Mona was having sex with another man,” Ace had told us. “You have no idea how relieved I am that I was able to free myself from her and move on. I don’t ever want anything to do with her,” Ace had added.He had said a couple of other things, but one thing he hadn’t done was discourage me from being with Mona.However, I knew enough now to know that I would never want to be with her, even if Alexa wasn’t in the picture.Noelle was right.I had Ale
Till Divorce Do Us Part Thank You
MARKWhile we waited for the plane to be ready for us, I caught sight of Noelle a few feet from us. She had taken a walk away from Vector and me.Without hesitation, I walked up to her.Noelle seemed to be doing something with her phone, and so engrossed was she that she didn’t notice my presence.“Hey, Noelle,” I called calmly.Still, Noelle jerked in shock.“I am sorry. I didn’t mean to startle you,” I apologized.“No, Mark, it’s fine. I just didn’t see you coming,” Noelle said, turning to face me.And that was when I saw that she was troubled. Instantly, I became worried about her.“Is everything okay, Noelle?” I asked her worriedly.“Yeah,” Noelle answered with a heavy sigh, but I just didn’t believe her.Not when she was having that look.“Come on, Noelle. I know that we have not always seen eye to eye, and we are not friends, but you can tell me if something is wrong,” I cajoled her tenderly.Noelle sighed again.It was as though something heavy was weighing her down.Again, I n
Till Divorce Do Us Part Stuck With Me
MARKSince Ace walked into his living room and started talking to us, his last statement was the first time I caught regret in his voice.Even when he mentioned Mona’s name before then, he didn’t sound embittered or upset. He simply sounded like a man who couldn’t care less.“Why would you say that?” Noelle asked Ace, speaking for the first time.And it was at the same time that I asked a question too.“Why did you leave her?”Ace stared at us, probably wondering what question to answer first, but Noelle and I didn’t plan to ask at the same time. Instead of answering, Ace had questions of his own.“Why are you really here, Mark Ronaldo?” Ace asked deeply.For the first time, he was sounding like a man speaking to the other guy whom his girlfriend cheated on him with in business school, and that made me slightly uncomfortable.Unfortunately, I felt worse answering his question.Ace already said that his greatest regret was marrying Mona. Well, I wasn’t married to her yet but I also had
Till Divorce Do Us Part The Other Guy
MARKFinding Mona’s ex-husband as soon as we got to Toronto was one of the easiest thing to do. Even though I did say that it wasn’t a risk that was worth taking, Noelle made me get a private plane, and two hours later, all three of us were in Toronto.“Mr. Ace will see you soon,” a woman in her mid fifties told us.She appeared to be his house manager.Apparently, Ace was in his private gym when we arrived. The good thing was that we were allowed into his premises, and I couldn’t deny how successful he had become.Well, Ace wasn’t exactly poor, or maybe it was because I never really paid attention to him. He was my rival back then, and I didn’t usually concern myself about my rivals.The only way I would have concerned myself with him was if he was my rival in business.“I really hope this is worth it, and that we are able to get back to Paris before it gets dark,” I said in a low voice, almost impatiently.At lot of things were at stake if this didn’t go well.“Have some faith, Mark
Till Divorce Do Us Part Am Item, Maybe?
MARKI didn’t have an answer to Reyna’s question, but then again, there was no going back now. Not like I wanted to anyway.Whatever her reaction might be, I would just wait to see it, and hopefully, it wouldn’t infuriate her so much that she would turn down my request to be her client.After I dro

IVY“Hey, Ivy, aren’t you going to make a phone call today?” Lady asked me when I passed by her desk from the dining room.Again, I had had to sit through the excruciating section of eating tasteless meals with a room filled with people who were mentally disoriented.It was sickening, and sometimes

MARKAlexa was being unnecessarily stubborn and hostile, and she had made me say things that I hadn’t even meant to say.Of course, I freaking cared that she was with Donald Shell. I would have cared if he was another man, because deep down, a tiny part of me wanted Alexa, but somehow, what was sup

ALEXAMark had taken me completely by surprise. I had expected him to cower at what I just said and plead, but instead, he had been unflinching.What was going on that no one was telling me about?I continued to think about it even while I sat by the side of my dad in his ward.“Alexa, what is runn
