I Am Dead To You Husband Chapter 051
Antonio's eyes bored into Lawson. And right then and there, Lawson actually thought Antonio would lash out because the look in his eyes told him he was in no mood for nonsense. And he was ready for any outcome.There was silence for a split second before Antonio abruptly pulled Lawson's hand away from Camila, his stare still fixed on Lawson. "You can continue your argument another time," he stated flatly. "For now, I'm taking her home." With that he seized Camila's hand, leading her away. Lawson watched them go, a muscle twitching in his jaw. He wanted to say something, anything, but Antonio's intense gaze warned him against it. He didn't want to cause a scene as he knew how he got into the party in the first place. Raising suspicion or drawing unwanted attention was the last thing he needed. He let them leave, a cold fury settling in his chest. This wasn't over. Not by a long shot. He'd find Camila again. ~~~~~~ Camila glanced back at Lawson, his fist clenched, but

Silence hung for a breathless moment. Lawson's mind struggled to catch up with the sudden shift in power. One second he was the pursuer, the next he was pinned, interrogated by the very person he was trying to find. His eyes locked with Camila's. Gone was the carefree laughter he had witnessed earlier. If eyes could kill, he would have dropped dead by now. "So what now? You're stalking me?" she spat, slipping her hand off the wall. "Cami—" "Not only did you choose the long, drawn-out way of divorce, but you're also stalking me. Or perhaps you're trying to provoke me into filing a lawsuit for—" "You've got a lot of cash to spend on lawsuits, don't you?" Lawson cut her off suddenly, pushing himself off the wall. Camila didn't flinch, her feet tapping on the ground. Lawson noticed the sound, looked down, and then back up. He chuckled; he bet she wanted to strangle him right then. "You haven't changed a bit. You're still the same short-tempered, emotional woman behind this,"

She was laughing... like really laughing.The other guy was saying something in her ear, and the way she flinched as his breath touched her skin, the way she leaned so close to him that there was a space between them, was all a punch to his gut.It wasn't just that she was with someone else; it was the easy intimacy, the unrestrained joy on her face, the comfortable closeness that felt so... exclusive.She acts like a saint, yet despite them still being married, she's having an affair? Then she is no better than he is.He tore his gaze away, a muscle twitching in his jaw. He focused on the woman still holding his arm, her smile now seeming almost mocking."Looks like she's having a good time," the woman commented. "Perhaps your grand entrance wasn't as impactful as you'd hoped?"Lawson frowned, but she didn't let him speak."Oh right, how do I know?" She chuckled, glancing at Camila again. "She's on my watch list, so I know everything about her.""You're stalking her?" Lawson's brow f

Antonio felt his thigh flinch; it was subtle but enough for him to register her threat. Instantly, he pulled back, the smirk disappearing from his face, replaced by a serious, almost dismissive expression. "Speaking of personal space," he said coolly, "you're way too close. Shift, please." He then nodded curtly toward the staircase. "And go get dressed." He turned his gaze away from her, his attention fixed on something across the room, effectively ending the close confrontation. He could practically see the smug look on Camila's face as she climbed up the stairs with an air of confidence that came out of nowhere. She had officially become the only woman who could balance the power imbalance; even Emily, this deranged sometimes, wouldn't dare cross him using methods like that. Deflecting intimidation. A few minutes later, Camila descended the stairs, her hair curled and cascading down her back, a short cocktail gown clinging to her curves in all the right places, heels high enou

It has been exactly four weeks since Camila paid a visit to the Millers, and exactly four weeks since she'd given Diane and her mother a warning.But of course, it's clear they didn't take her words seriously.They never did. They never ever thought she would be capable of standing up for herself because she had been too weak all these years enduring all the abuse from her Aunt Julie.Julie had been Cole and Camila's guardian since the devastating car accident that claimed their parents' lives when they were eight.Their parents, pillars within the family, had placed their trust in Julie, entrusting her and her brother with the care of their children and their wealth, to be managed until the twins reached eighteen.Camila couldn't understand how her parents' death, so sudden and awful, could have felt like something they knew was coming.That thought had haunted her for years until she finally let it go.Upon their eighteenth birthday, Julie's manipulations began. She insisted they we

Camila's phone buzzed – Mr. Hernández's name flashed on the screen. Camila answered, a familiar knot tightening in her stomach. "Ms. Lopez," the lawyer said, his voice carrying bad news, "Lawson. He refused to sign the divorce papers." Camila's breath caught, but she kept her voice steady. "So, what do we do now?" "It complicates things," he explained simply. "Without his signature, we'll have to file a petition with the court to start the divorce ourselves. He'll have a deadline to respond, and depending on that and the court's schedule, it could take several months." "A trial?" The word felt heavy. She'd hoped it wouldn't come to this, that Lawson would cooperate. Now, it seemed like a long road ahead. "A trial is possible later," he confirmed. "But first, we file that petition. Please gather any financial records, the separation agreement, and any communication with him we haven't discussed. We need to prepare our case." "Alright. I'll get those documents to you soon.

Lawson stared at the "DIVORCE AGREEMENT" in front of him. Cold papers. He scanned every font, but he wasn't reading a single word. Alive. Camila was alive. That's all that screamed in his head.And divorce? That was the first thing she thought of? After all this time?He knew he'd messed up before. Badly. Hurt her.But this... this felt like a punch after barely catching his breath.She was back. He'd imagined this moment a thousand times – tears, hugs, relief flooding him. Not this stark white paper. Not a lawyer's polite cough. Judgmental stares and annoying impatience.A lifetime of grief had lifted, replaced by a fragile, unbelievable joy. He didn't even get the chance to apologize, hold her, or even have a normal conversation.And now this. No time to even register she was safe. Just this demand. This ending. He shook his head slightly, a bitter laugh escaping him. It was almost cruel.The lawyer cleared his throat, bringing him back to reality."Mr. Miller, once you've reviewed

Antonio went wide. What? Was he surprised? Why? It's what he wanted, wasn't it? Camila kissed him harder, her fingers tangled in his hair. Antonio held her tight. His fingers dug into her waist. The kiss felt strong, too rough for a charade. His lips moved with hers. They breathed hard. This wasn't just acting. Camila felt something new. A hot feeling. A little scary, but it would go away the moment she pulled away. She was sure of that. His hand moved on her back. His scent filled her nose. The music went soft. Too soft for what it should have been. It felt just like them. Camila pulled back; her lips felt full. Her face was hot, her toes curling restlessly. Her heart pounded in her chest. Antonio's eyes were dark, his fingers still framing her chin. A quiet moment. They breathed fast, eyes locked. And then it snapped. Camila slid her fingers from his hair, shifted back a little, and flashed him a brief smile. "Well," she said, her voice soft. "That was… someth

"Dress as sexy as yesterday. We are going to a party. I'll text you the address and time," Camila said, a sarcastic laugh in her voice."You do know I'm not a puppet you string, Antonio. If I'm going to be your girlfriend, you're going to give me an explanation. At least tell me where I'm going, whose party it is. So we won't have any problems."Antonio smirked, impressed. "What a threat." He intercepted a passing tray, snagging a glass of red wine and offering it to her. "Drink this and calm down. I like you better when you're not angry."Camila's eyes stayed on him for a moment. Without a word, she snatched the glass from his hand. "Yeah," she said, her voice cool, "it's definitely better for you when I'm calm."She gulped the drink all in one go.Antonio smiled at the sight and took the empty glass from her while offering his hand.Eyes narrowed. Jaw set. Charming like a gentleman."Wanna dance?" he asked.Camila laughed. To be honest, she was flattered. She had come here thinking
