He Didn't Know He Was Signing the Divorce Papers Chapter 10
Damian pulled out his satellite phone and dialed his assistant, Michael."Michael, it's me."His eyes never left the figure moving through the snow."All routine Moretti family affairs go to the board. Major decisions by encrypted email. Don't call me unless it's a top-level crisis."Michael was alarmed. "Sir, where are you going?"Damian gripped his damaged hands, his knuckles aching."I'm staying in Switzerland.""Until the day she forgives me."He hung up, walked to the edge of the camp, and stood there quietly.He stayed for a full year.One year later. Zurich.Early summer sunlight poured through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the apartment, bright on the floor.Vivian leaned back in a rocking chair, a sleeping baby boy in her arms.The baby had thick black hair. His tiny fist rested against her chest. His sleeping face was peaceful.In that year, her paper had been published in a top academic journal. She had become the youngest project lead at the institute.And the once-arroga

Outside the medical tent, the snow fell harder.Damian stood like a statue in the sub-zero storm for three hours.The flap opened. Eric stepped out."Mr. Moretti, if you're trying to freeze to death out here for sympathy, I suggest you do it somewhere else. Vivian is over a month pregnant. She can't handle stress."A month.One month.The timing matched the night he came back from his business trip. The night before Clara returned.Damian closed his eyes. Something bitter rose in his throat.He pushed through the tent flap and strode inside.Vivian sat on a cot, sorting through her data tablet."Vivian." Damian slowed his breathing, as if afraid of shattering something. "I know I was wrong. I was so wrong... Come home with me. We can start over."Vivian set down the tablet with a soft click.She looked up. Her eyes were ice."Mr. Moretti traveled all the way to Switzerland just to remind me how stupid I used to be?""No! I swear that's not it!" Damian rushed to explain. "I know I hurt

Sanetsch Pass had become a graveyard of ice and twisted metal.The wind drove ice crystals into his face like knives.The heavy rescue equipment hadn't arrived yet. Damian jumped off the snowmobile, grabbed a shovel and a pry bar, and charged into the snowdrift like a madman."VIVIAN!"The wind shredded his scream.He knelt in the snow. When the shovel snapped, he clawed at the snow with his gloved hands.Sharp ice cut through the thick gloves. His knuckles split. Blood mixed with snowmelt and froze into dark red crystals.He felt nothing.With every swing of his arm, images from the past four years flashed through his mind.Her back at the dinner table, waiting until the food went cold.Her alone in the hospital corridor, clutching her stomach in despair.Her shoulders growing thinner under that trench coat.He had thought those were small things. He had thought that as long as he gave her money and a title, she would always be there waiting.He had spent four years pushing her away.

Zurich.The institute's main office was brightly lit.An eight-figure check slammed onto the desk.The Swiss institute representative across from him adjusted his glasses, looking uncomfortable."Mr. Moretti, research personnel field schedules are classified information..."Damian pulled out his pen and added another line to the check."Thirty million.""Use your private clearance. Take me there."Dawn was breaking.The roar of the helicopter tore through the silence of the Alps.Freezing wind poured through the cabin seams. Damian hadn't slept in thirty-six hours.Below stretched the jagged Valais range, peaks like a beast's teeth.The base was a minimalist glass structure built into the mountainside.The moment the helicopter touched down, Damian pushed the door open and ran.He grabbed the first researcher he saw. "Where's Vivian?""Ms. Moretti took a team into the mountains at five this morning to collect sediment samples."A calm voice came from around the corner.A man in gold-ri

Damian's fingertips dug into the embossed seal on the decree.Clara's hand landed on his shoulder."Damian, she's just taking advantage of how you spoil her. She's putting on a show to scare you. Give her a couple of days and she'll come crawling back...""Get out."The word ground through his teeth, cold as a round being chambered.He swung his arm back, knocking Clara's hand away.The force sent a crystal vase on the coffee table shattering to the floor.Glass shards sprayed across the expensive marble, refracting broken light.Clara screamed and stumbled back.Damian stormed out of the estate and threw open the car door.The engine roared with fury. The tires carved two black streaks through the rain, tearing through the night.Half an hour later, Damian stood on the tree-lined path of Central University.His custom suit was soaked through. Rain streamed down his hard jaw.This was where Vivian had worked for four years.He looked around and realized, with a sinking despair, that he

(Third Person POV)The black Maybach swerved hard in the pouring rain.Its tires grazed the front of a motorcycle as it braked. The screech of metal and rubber nearly split the air. The rider's curses cut through the rain, but Damian didn't even blink.He gripped the steering wheel so hard his knuckles went white."Damian!"Clara's carefully manicured hand pressed against her chest. The diamond bracelet on her wrist knocked against the dashboard with a sharp clink."What is wrong with you lately? You forgot you promised to take me to the movies, and now you're trying to kill us both?"Damian didn't look at her."I'm tired. Go find your friends."His voice was ice. Flat. Hollow.All he could think about was the look on Vivian's face two days ago when he left. That calm, quiet look.Two days. She hadn't contacted him once.No calls. No messages.Clara touched up her lipstick in the mirror on the sun visor and pouted."Ever since Vivian went off to that crappy research institute, you've b
