  • Dear husband I can live without you    Chapter 134: Don't leave me

    Anna tightened the drawstrings of her hoodie as she stepped out of her car, her heart beating fast beneath the thick fabric. The late afternoon sun burned faintly through a gray sky, but she barely noticed it. All she felt was the uneasy rhythm of anger and guilt swirling inside her chest.She pulled the hoodie lower over her face. The last thing she needed was anyone recognizing her. In this neighborhood, gossip traveled faster than fire in dry grass.Her fingers hesitated on the doorbell. For a brief moment, she almost turned around. But something—pride, maybe guilt—kept her rooted there.She pressed the bell.Nothing.Anna pressed it again. Then again.Still no answer.She let out a sigh, tried the doorknob, and to her surprise, it turned easily. The door creaked open, and the stench hit her instantly—thick and sour, a mix of alcohol, urine, and stale air that made her gag.“Jesus,” she muttered, pulling her sleeve over her nose.The living room looked like a war zone. Empty bottle

    Anna pulled into the gym parking lot, her hands tight on the steering wheel. The lot was already jammed with cars, flashes of polished metal gleaming beneath the morning sun. She had ignored Vivian’s protests, her friend’s voice still echoing in her head: Don’t go out today, Anna. Let the storm pass. But storms didn’t wait for permission to rage. The moment she stepped out of her car, adjusting the strap of her gym bag, a familiar voice pierced through the noise of engines and chattering people. “Miss Anna Marie! Miss Anna Marie!” Anna froze briefly before turning her head. A young media woman in skinny jeans and a blazer was rushing toward her, phone raised, recording already. Anna exhaled and grabbed her water bottle, pretending not to hear. “Miss Anna, is it true that Miss Olivia is your mother?” Her chest tightened, but she didn’t break stride. She walked straight into the gym, ignoring the reporter’s footsteps behind her. Inside, the air smelled of sweat, iron, and disin

    “Anna! Anna! You have to see this!”Vivian burst into the room like a storm, waving a tablet in her hand. Her voice carried the kind of urgency that made Anna want to hide under the sheets forever.Anna groaned, her hand rubbing at her temple as she sat up slowly. “Oh God, Viv… I was just starting to enjoy my sleep. Can’t a woman rest in peace for once?”Vivian shot her a pointed look, one brow arched. “Stop rotting in bed and come see the spicy news about you blasting all over the internet.”Anna squinted at her. “Don’t you have a home? Or do you just sleep at people’s houses now?” Her voice was dry, croaky, and laced with sleep.“Whatever,” Vivian waved off the question like a fly and flopped down on the bed beside her. “Here. Look.” She shoved the tablet into Anna’s hands.Anna yawned so hard her jaw cracked. “Vivian, if this is another rumor about me dating someone I’ve never met, I swear—”“Just look at the screen, Sleeping Beauty,” Vivian pouted, crossing her legs on the bed.“A

    “Mum?” Anna’s voice trembled the moment Olivia lifted her head. Their eyes met—one pair full of disbelief, the other full of longing.“Anna,” Olivia mouthed, her lips quivering as she began to walk toward her daughter.Anna froze, her throat tightening. “What’s she doing here?” she breathed, her voice breaking like fragile glass.“Who?” Vivian turned to her, confusion lacing her tone.Anna tilted her head toward Olivia’s direction.Vivian’s gasp came sharp and quick. Her eyes went wide as recognition dawned. “Your mum?”“Don’t call that woman my mother,” Anna warned, her voice low and shaking. “She lost that title a long time ago.”Vivian sighed softly, her chest heavy. She understood Anna’s rage. The air between them grew tense as Olivia continued pushing through the small crowd gathered in front of the courthouse, her frail body brushing against curious onlookers and pressmen snapping pictures.Anna’s brows furrowed. “Why is she coming closer?” she muttered. “Let’s get out of here.”

    “Don’t worry, Anna. You’ll win,” Vivian said, patting her friend’s back. Her voice was firm, but her eyes betrayed the nerves she tried to hide. They stood just outside the courthouse, the morning sun slanting against the marble columns, flashing off the lenses of nearby reporters’ cameras.“Yes, darling,” Gerald added, his hand gently finding Anna’s shoulder. “We’re with you. Barrister Claudia is the best in her field. Just breathe. Everything’s going to be fine.”Anna smiled faintly and leaned up to peck his lips. “Thanks, darling.”The kiss was soft, fleeting — but it was enough to set off a storm.Across the parking lot, Andy froze mid-step the moment he saw them. His blood simmered. His jaw tightened until his teeth ached. Every muscle in his body went rigid, as if anger had turned him to stone.Penelope noticed his sudden halt and snapped, tugging on his sleeve. “What the hell are you staring at?”But then her gaze followed his — and landed on the sight that had gutted him: Anna

    Anna drew a slow breath before stepping into the office where Ethan Voss and Big Kay were waiting. The heavy glass door clicked behind her, sealing her inside the sleek, chilled room that smelled faintly of leather, espresso, and male perfume.“Finally!” Big Kay’s deep voice burst through the air the moment he saw her. “The queen of the screen herself!”His grin was wide and mischievous, gold rings flashing as he clapped his hands together.Anna smiled softly, her fatigue hidden behind the kind of composure only a woman used to long, chaotic days could carry. “Hi, Kay,” she greeted, polite but calm.“Oh my God—” Big Kay gasped dramatically, rising from his chair. “You’re even more beautiful in person.” He shook her hand with exaggerated awe.“Thanks for the compliment,” she said, her tone gracious though restrained.She took a seat beside Ethan Voss, directly opposite Big Kay, who was grinning like he’d just found his new obsession.“I saw the gifts,” she began, her voice even. “Thank
