Billionaire Husband Cheated With My Sister, I Left Chapter 11
She wanted to see me. To curse at me again, the way she had last time?I was slow. But I could grow too.After a long moment, I spoke again."Never mind."I said softly, "I'm not her sister anymore.""I don't want to see her. Let her do as she likes."After I hung up, a weight lifted off me.No one mentioned Julian to me again, as if the man had never existed.I practically lived in the lab. My students took to calling me, fondly, the mad scientist.Another month went by, and the prison officer brought me a diary.She said Chloe had demanded it. That if I wasn't allowed to read it, she'd kill herself.I nodded, tucked the diary into a storage box, and had no intention of opening it.Until one night, ten days on, when I couldn't sleep.For no reason at all, I thought of that diary.It turned out Chloe had never, from childhood, truly thought of me as her sister.She'd hated me all along, envied me all along.After I started dating Julian, she kept hearing from me about how good he was t

The last shred of hope in Julian's heart went out.He said softly, "I thought, if Vivian could just accept the compensation I offered, maybe I'd feel a little better. But she won't even take that.""Keeping me at arm's length like this, she's making sure I never have an easy day for the rest of my life."Chloe asked to meet me at that coffee shop we used to love most.Her voice was raw as she apologized, like she'd been crying a long time.I sat with it for a while, and in the end I softened and agreed.She was still my sister, after all.And she'd paid a heavy price.The next day, the weather was bright and clear.I'd just reached the door of the little shop when a car came barreling straight at me.In the chaos, I saw the person behind the wheel.It was Chloe.She glared at me, eyes wild with hatred."Vivian! It's all because of you!""Because of you, Dad never loved me as a child. Because of you, my teachers and classmates never liked me!""Because of you, even Julian wants to throw

I turned and started up the stairs."Vivian!"Julian's voice came from behind me.The next second, Ethan's fist landed in his face.Julian stumbled back several steps before he managed to steady himself."My apologies, Mr. Sterling.""I have to keep my client safe."That night, back in my room, when I went to draw the curtains, I saw Julian still standing dumbly under the streetlight, head tilted up, looking toward my window.I pulled the curtains shut. I didn't want to spare him another glance.In the middle of the night, a heavy rain came down.Julian sat out in it the whole night.The next morning when I went downstairs, I heard a crowd of people gathered around him, murmuring."Professor Quinn!"Someone stopped me."This guy looks really familiar, isn't he your ex-husband? He's running a fever. He's passed out now."On the way to the hospital, Julian called my name in his daze."Vivian... Vivian. I'm sorry."I watched the tears spill from his eyes like a string of beads snapping lo

Half a year apart, and for a moment I almost didn't recognize Julian.He'd wasted away to a shadow, stubble rough on his jaw, his cheekbones jutting sharp.I frowned, looked down, and only then realized my hand was still locked tight in his.My stomach lurched. I pulled my hand hard out of his and said quietly, "I'm doing fine. You don't need to worry about me."Then Ethan, who'd brought me home, stepped in front of me.He moved up and put himself between us.The truth was, even though we were divorced, even though I'd let this love go for good, the instant I saw Julian again I tensed up for no reason I could name.I didn't know why he'd suddenly come looking for me.I'd divorced him and handed him over to Chloe. Shouldn't he be thrilled?It had been six months. Chloe must be close to having the baby by now.Not that any of it had anything to do with me anymore."Mr. Sterling, I'm Ms. Quinn's lawyer.""You and Ms. Quinn are legally divorced. The paperwork is valid and binding. If you c

"Julian! Sterling!"Chloe's eyes flushed red in an instant, and fat tears rolled down."Do you even hear yourself?! You bastard!"She lunged at him with her fists, only for Julian to catch her wrists."Yes, I'm a bastard. But what does that make you?""If you hadn't dressed yourself up like that and crawled into my bed while I was drunk, you think I'd spare you a single glance?""You were nothing but a way to kill the emptiness. You thought a pregnancy could trap me? Dream on! Who even knows whose bastard you're carrying!"Chloe broke entirely.She thrashed and screamed, "You're the one who said you'd love me forever, you're the one who said my sister was boring and cold, you're the one who pulled me back into bed again and again! You're the one who tore my sister to shreds! Now she's gone, you're divorced, and suddenly you're playing the devoted husband?""There is something wrong with you, Julian!"Smack!A slap landed full across Chloe's cheek.The force of it knocked her flat onto

Julian's heart began to pound.When he saw the flamboyantly scrawled name, "Julian Sterling," signed in that bold, sweeping hand on the husband's line, his fingers gave a violent jerk.He remembered that day at the hospital, when Vivian had asked him to sign some treatment forms for Chloe.He'd had Chloe whimpering and nuzzling in his arms at the time, and he'd never looked twice at what was inside.A wave of vertigo hit him, and all at once he lost his balance.He staggered a few steps and dropped to the floor, crumpling completely, every bit of fight drained out of him.In that moment, Julian's mind was strangely, suddenly full of Vivian.He thought of how she'd never had a gift for people, and yet she'd stood awkwardly in front of the cameras for him, gone with him to events she hated.He thought of the blueberry cake she'd once made by hand for his birthday, his favorite.He thought of her clumsy little surprises, the way she'd glowed like a girl lost in her own happiness.Back the
