Divorcing My Ruthless Husband Chapter 18: Steven's sorry
Summer's Point of View I took deep breaths and tried to push away the sting of what I had seen. I watched as Hailey moved closer to Steven, her lips turned up into a sly smirk, before she whispered something in his ear.“What are they whispering about?” I couldn't help but asked myself. Steven pulled Amby to the backseat of the car, and the seriousness of their conversation was evident in the deep frown on their faces. With a gentle lurch, the car started moving away from the parking space.“Where are they going?” I squinted and peered around, searching for a cab, but the silence of the exclusive, wealthy clubhouse made it difficult to find one.I almost ran in panic, my stomach churning with fear as I recalled what Hailey had told Steven - that Amby had gotten into an accident. She needed to be taken to the hospital, so I knew Steven would take her to the hospital with its grand entrance and expensive services.When I spotted a cab going my way, I hailed it and slid into the back

Summer’s Point of ViewI felt a presence behind me and when I swiveled around; I saw a young man who seemed to be my age. He had pinkish lips, and his jaw was in a perfect curve. He grinned at me knowingly, his eyes twinkling with recognition.“Hi,” I greeted and slightly bowed my head. His smile widened as I gave him a confused reaction. He looked so pleased when he saw me, so I couldn't help but wonder. “I’m sorry, but do I know you?” The man scratched his nape, and there was a strange emotion in his eyes when they landed on mine. He pursed his lips as if it was funny that I asked his name.“Hey! It’s me, Brandon Scott. It’s nice to see you again, Miss Summer.” Brandon? I couldn't recall meeting a person named Brandon. Straining my eyes shut as I tried to remember if I knew him, I came up empty.With a deep breath, I tried to remember the man, but the harder I concentrated, the worse my headache got. It was so painful that I almost groaned in so much pain.I felt the hollowness of
Divorcing My Ruthless Husband Chapter 20: Move on
Summer's Point of View“Steven, it's time for you to head home. Why can't you believe me when I am telling you I am fine?” Amber urged again.Reality hit me like a ton of bricks when I heard Amby's words to Steven. I stole a quick look at him, feeling the anticipation in the air as I waited to see how he would react to her.Steven cast a glance at Brandon, who was standing to his side, instead of saying anything to Amby. His face was set in a serious expression, and his eyes were icy and uninviting.“What happened to Amby? Did you investigate it?” Steven asked and my heart felt like it was being squeezed and half into two. His face was etched with worry for Amby, more so than when he looked at me.Amby stared incredulously at Steven, shaking her head in amazement that he was being so obstinate in front of her."Yes, Mr. Steven. I found out that the man behind the chaos is—"“Froilan Hernandez invited me to have dinner with him. He is the director of the big company's technology, so I h
Divorcing My Ruthless Husband Chapter 21: Talk with Amby
Summer’s Point of View “Divorce?” Steven chuckled, but his eyes lacked any joy. “Missus Carter, you seem to use that word a lot these days just because it is convenient for you. Since you can’t recall, allow me to remind you of your past self-centered refusals when I asked for a divorce.”I felt a lump in my throat and even I wanted to open my mouth; I knew all that would come out was air. The car stopped right at that moment as he turned his head on me. With his cold eyes, he asked, “What? Nothing to refute?”I pinched my right leg to force myself to stay conscious, feeling drained from the intensity of Steven’s gaze. He wanted to torture me. I was sure of it because his eyes couldn’t deny it. As my pants slowly became breath again, I muttered, “I’m only asking you to free Celine out of the jail. Is it hard for you to do?””How can you expect me to risk my neck against the Brown family for the insignificant assistant you have?” Steven sneered. “Insignificant?” I gritted my teeth an
Divorcing My Ruthless Husband Chapter 22: I can't accept your proposal
Summer's Point of ViewAs I glanced into the VIP room Steven had given to Amby, I felt a sense of grandeur; the walls were covered in intricate gold leaf. Her room was orderly and tidy, with plenty of space for visitors. Perhaps this was how Steven Carter cared for the woman he cherished deeply, keeping her safe from harm.My husband would make sure her sweetheart had everything she needed to be as comfortable as possible during her recovery. To him, the million dollar cost of the hospital per day was a worthwhile investment if it meant Amby would recover.Hailey looked at Amby and angrily stood up before she spat, "Don't you dare do something, Summer, because I will make sure you will regret it!"Hailey was seething with rage and glared at me before storming out. The reverence she had for Amby was so great that she would follow her instructions, even if she didn't like them.My eyes went back to Amby's face. I stared at her angelic face for a long time and couldn't help but admire it.
Divorcing My Ruthless Husband Chapter 23: Steven's wife
Summer’s Point of ViewI looked on as Steven stepped into the room, his presence filling it with a strange electric energy. His face was livid, and I could feel the sting of regret on my tongue, like I had wronged Amby because of what he said.“Steven, why are you staring at me like I’m the worst person you’ve ever met? Did my presence ever mean anything to you? Do you really think I can do something so horrible to Amby?"I wanted to convey those words to him, but I refrain myself by biting my tongue. If he assumed I was intending to do those terrible things to his sweetheart, he would not use his mental capacity to think and would instantly kill me himself.”Don’t worry, my good husband.” I started, emphasizing the word husband, and smile, but it didn’t reach my eyes. “I acted with the utmost integrity and did nothing wrong with her. We are only talking about something.”He looked over at Amby with a critical eye, as if he wouldn’t believe me until he could check for himself that she
Divorcing My Ruthless Husband Chapter 24: Stop loving me with your eyes.
Summer’s Point of ViewSteven pulled me to the secluded corner, and I felt the roughness of the wall behind me as he moved his face closer to me. When I felt his brawny arms, I couldn't help but gasp at the sensation. I was out of breath, my strength sapping as I tried to push him away.The way he acted brought a pleasant, tingling warmth to my chest. However, his piercing eyes seemed to study me, and I felt my skin crawl under his scrutiny.“Summer, what did you tell Amby?” he asked.“What do you think?” I asked back, a little frustrated as I pushed him. I tried to avert my eyes, but he grasped my chin, making me look directly into his. I felt my mind go blank, overwhelmed by what he had done. We were locked in a silent battle of wills, neither of us looking away.“I’m asking you, Summer. Answer my question.”His breath was hot on my skin as his murmuring grew louder. His presence alone was enough to cause me to collapse. What more to this kind of distance? His voice was low and men
Divorcing My Ruthless Husband Chapter 25: You're the reason
Summer’s Point of View“Answer me, wife. What can you destroy in my life? How will you do that?”When I understood Steven had me cornered by his question, the fear ran through my veins, and I could feel my heart beating faster and faster. I couldn’t believe I had been so naïve, not realizing he was trying to ensnare me with my own words.“Why do I need to answer you? I will not answer you, for I know it will make you suspicious of me.” I scoffed at him and shoved him away before I said gruffly, “I have some things to do, so I have to go. Bye!”I already turned around and took steps. However, before I could make a distance from him, his breath struck my nape.“Just the typical Summer, nothing to expect.”As my stilettos shuffling against the pavement, I heard his throaty voice behind me, but I hastened away. His movements were quick and calculated, like a beast searching for prey to feast on. I exhaled slowly to slow down the frantic hammering of my heart.Whenever I was with him, I fel
