*TRISTAN*
It wasn't until a few minutes after Cora left that I realized that we had really been married for three years.
Damn,it was three years already?
I vaguely remembered that she had told me yesterday that I should come home early to have dinner with her and I had promised her that I would.
But I totally forgot about that.
Was that why she was angry?
Was that why she was okay with divorcing me when she had been so obsessed with me?
I grimaced and then I finally noticed the mess in the living room.
How angry had she been last night to have destroyed so many things?
C'mon,it was just one dinner.
Fine,maybe I had stood her up a couple of times before but was it that serious?
I sighed heavily as I held my head and still tried to remember how last night had played out.
I could only remember going to my favorite bar and grabbing a drink and then Phoebe had showed up.
I still don't know how I ended up in bed with her.I had woken up this morning with a heavy head and she had been lying beside me.
I had wondered who I got in bed with her? And when I lifted up the covers,I realized that I was naked.
I sat up and tried to remember then but nothing came to me except drinking with her.I had been surprised to see her because she was supposed to be in Spain.
Phoebe had opened her eyes then and she greeted.
"Good morning."
"What happened last night?"I asked,curiously.
She sat up."You don't remember?Then again,you were more intoxicated than me.We both had a lot of drink while catching up and then we came up here.I had originally wanted to drop you off so you could rest but you kept touching me and you know,I couldn't resist you."
I had shut my eyes,briefly.
I couldn't believe I had made a move on her.I had never been too sexually attracted to Phoebe when we dated years ago and even when she was naked beside me at that moment,I didn't find her at all.
Still,she couldn't be lying since we were both naked.
I slowly turned to face her."I'm sorry,Phoebe.This was a mistake."
I didn't know if that would hurt her or not but this really was a mistake and should be considered as such.
"I understand.And I think I should cut down on my drinking."She let out.
I nodded."Me too."
Somehow the thought of what happened with Phoebe bothered me a lot.
It was like I did something bad,something bad to someone but I quickly shook off that thought.
Even if Phoebe was chill about it and I had promised to make it up to her,I was still so bothered by it.
And now coming home to see that my wife who had been obsessed with me suddenly wanted a divorce.
I didn't know how to feel about that.
Of course I hadn't pictured a lifetime with Cora.Maybe I had gotten a little used to her always been in my house but this was what I had always wanted.
I had never wanted to share my life with anyone.I preferred being alone.I didn't want to have any weaknesses because that fucking emotion makes one weak.
This was what I wanted!
Though I felt insulted at the way she behaved earlier but I was glad the marriage had come to an end.
I was glad but why did I feel so empty on the inside.

*CORA*
I had just walked out of Tristan's house when a limousine pulled up in front of me.
Two men got down from the limousine and bowed respectfully before taking my luggage from me.
I got into the car and leaned against the seat.I was the daughter of Edward Watson.
My family were one of the most powerful families in Texas.I hadn't meant to lie about my background to Tristan's Grandmother two years ago but she had specifically talked about how she would prefer a woman from a humble beginning for Tristan,she felt that most of the rich ladies were spoilt and wouldn't be able to cope with Tristan.
I may be from a rich family but I wasn't spoilt so I had lied about my upbringing so Grandma Viola could accept me and so that I could be with Tristan.
I had really done a lot of stupid things for love but I was done being a fool now.
The driver,Jerome handed me a new cellphone and a black card.
"Your father was overjoyed when he heard that you are going to take back your position as the CEO."He informed me."The employees has already been informed and they are quite happy that you're coming back."
Tears filled my eyes and I couldn't help but smile.
At least,I had still had people who appreciated me.People who knew my worth.
The look of ecstasy on his face was almost enough to cause her another explosive orgasm.She let her hands slide around and cup the hard,tight cheeks of his ass and she squeezed and kneaded as she licked and sucked.He was moaning now, running his hands through her hair.She loved it.She kept it up until she felt his cock pulse in her mouth, growing and hardening even more before he groaned."Cora…wait…I..I wanna come inside of you."He breathed and she slowly took her mouth away from him.He reached down and lifted her up with seemingly little effort and he positioned her properly on the bed.He leaned above her,supporting his weight with his forearms.He brought her legs up and wrapped them around his waist while her hands got busy again exploring his body and clutching onto his big shoulders.She arched her hips up further in a silent plea,desperately wanting to be filled by him.She felt him slid his cock slid into her,just few inches.As he penetrated her slowly, his eyes were ho
Noah called to sincerely let Cora know of how badly Tristan had missed her and how remorseful he was about everything.Cora was filled with mixed feelings.Had he truly given up on her?She didn't want him to.There had been many times in the past two months when they had been sitting or standing so close to each other.She was missing him today,more than usual.Should she go see him?But going to see him technically means she was accepting him.Was she ready to?She loved Tristan.Her feelings for him had never changed and she really wanted to start all over again with him.By evening,she made up her mind to take a chance on him.Getting to his knock,she knocked on the door.It opened up to reveal Tristan's tall figure."Cora,what are you…?"Before he could complete that,she stood on her toes and pressed her lips against his.She felt his whole body stilled and he didn't move a muscle as she kissed him.Why wasn't he kissing her back.She moved back a bit to see a shocked look on her
Zoe and Noah invited their two best friends,Cora and Tristan who also happened to be ex-couple.They needed the two of them to discuss their wedding plans as they were the chief bridesmaid and best man,respectively.Tristan and Cora were civil at the meeting.They didn't argue,they barely even spoke to each other.But Noah and Zoe could see them stealing glances at each other.It was obvious that they both wanted each other.After the meeting,Cora left first.Noah saw Tristan to his car."With how much you love Cora,I can't believe you're yet to get her back."Tristan shrugged,helplessly."I gave up.""You what?""I know I deeply wronged her but I apologize and begged countlessly,I even crossed the line by losing control of myself.I've done everything I can think of,Noah.I think it's best I respect what she wants."At that moment,Tristan's s mind was in a mess, as if a lot of memorries upwelled in his mind.Noah didn't know what to say abhors.Tristan waved his hand and got on the car.
Cora had planned to turn a blind eye to it, but to her surprise, she found that after Alvin got in the car, Phoebe also got in. The two hypocritical people got on the same car unexpectedly.By the time she came back to her senses and realized that she should take some photos,Alvin's car had already started.Cora glanced at the amount of oil, it was impossible for her to drive beyond several kilometers. Besides, she was not that fond of gossips. However, it reminded her of Tristan. Even though they had been divorced, she couldn't leave him to suffer. What's more, Alvin was not a kind person. What if Phoebe suffered losses? At the thought of this, Cora's heart skipped a beat. If Phoebe was drugged by Alvin, Tristan would be pained at the knowledge of it.Cora stopped her car beside the street and hailed a taxi to follow behind Alvin's car. Luckily, she was quick enough not to lose him.She had thought of different possibilities for their destination, but it turned out that Alvin was jus
But Cora knew it was not that simple. It was obviously a bloody farewell. Something must have been brewing behind Tristan's abnormal behavior. Was it because of Phoebe?Was he going to stop pursuing and go back to Phoebe who was always available to him?In that case, Cora would look down upon Tristan.For so many years, Tristan still didn't know her. How pathetic it was.She was out of breath because of crying. She had never cried like this in front of him. Whether it was because of what happened today or because they wouldn't see each other in the future, Cora didn't care. What she cared about was that Tristan was in front of her, but she couldn't express her inner feelings at all.Cora could do nothing but cry.Zoe saw this scene through the French window of her house. Standing behind her, Noah held Zoe in his arms and said softly,"Good things never come easy. Don't worry."Zoe nodded, but she was still worried. It was so embarrassi
"You don't have to do this. I said I would set you free. Don't be nervous."Tristan said slowly. At this moment, he wanted to smoke a cigarette, but he held it back.Raising her head, Cora was surprised to see the sadness in his eyes. 'How could he have such a melancholy look? It must be an illusion!'She calmed herself down and said in self-mockery, "I didn't expect that my divorce led to their marriage. Actually, you and I both are the matchmaker for them. You have made a great contribution."Tristan was not interested in arguing with Cora. He felt tired today. In the past, he saw arguing with Cora as a kind of pleasure, but now he realized that it was not pleasure but harm.The gap between men's and women's thoughts was not small. Until now, Tristan only knew that there was a gap, but he didn't know where it was. He just felt that he was tired, even though he had suffered less than Cora"Let bygones be bygones. Start over and pursue your own happ
