Chapter 13: Cheating With Marvin

Maya's POV

His words felt like a punch in the guts.

I could see in his eyes that he meant it when he said he had no reason to hold onto me.

I was the only one living in a world of delusions. I lived half a year trying to get to know everything about him, another half a year trying to understand him. Then I spent two years loving him.

I spent the years smiling and being happy that Marvin had scammed me, because that's how I had met him.

But now I'm realizing he never thought of me as anything, just an object he had found when he needed to impress his father.

That made a tear fall off my eyes when Larry was done with his words.

“Very well then. The gala, then the divorce” I told him.

I grabbed my phone from the floor then walked out in my drenched clothes.

My feet moved slowly, barely able to lift itself off the ground.

Marvin.

I called him back, “I'll be there” I told him then hung up.

I had been on the phone with him earlier, crying my eyes

  • I DIVORCED HIM! NOW, HE REGRETS   THE HAUNTING OF US

    CHAPTER 77 – THE HAUNTING OF US LARRY’S POV“Maya.”The name alone... hit me like a hammer to the chest. I froze, fork dangling like a forgotten baton, wine glass halfway to my lips, caught somewhere between ‘eat’ and ‘run for cover.’ I suddenly felt a knot in my stomach, like the air had been sucked out of the room. And my mind… it went blank, then overloaded all at once. Maya. Why now? Why here?I hadn’t heard her name in weeks, hadn’t wanted to. And yet here it was, sitting at the table between Brandy and me like a third guest. Of course. I should have seen this coming. Brandy had always had a sixth sense about the things that mattered... the people who mattered. And Maya mattered too much. My heart started thudding faster than it should, and for a moment, I wanted to run. Or hit something. Or maybe just drink until the world faded.I didn’t answer. Didn’t even look at Brandy. I just stood slowly, letting my chair scrape back across the floor, and reached for the wine bottle. My

  • I DIVORCED HIM! NOW, HE REGRETS   NOT SUPPOSED TO FEEL THIS

    CHAPTER 76– NOT SUPPOSED TO FEEL LIKE THIS LARRY’S POVI left Davenport Holdings walking taller than I had in months. The city air never smelled so clean, the traffic never looked so manageable, and for the first time in a long while, I didn’t feel like the world was pressing its boot into my throat.The drive home felt different tonight. Usually, I sat in the back seat half-drunk on exhaustion, replaying deals that went south or numbers that didn’t add up. But tonight... tonight my chest was lighter.I had a deal.Not just any deal... the deal.For the first time in months, I had leverageBy the time I pulled up in front of the house, I was still buzzing, high off a deal that had teeth and claws but finally gave me breathing room. I wanted to laugh, scream, drink champagne straight from the bottle. Instead, I stepped out, loosened my tie, and I walked through the front door smelling roasted garlic and grilled chicken, and all that reckless excitement found a softer landing. The kind

  • I DIVORCED HIM! NOW, HE REGRETS   THE OTHER MRS

    CHAPTER 75– THE OTHER MRS.LARRY'S POVI’d never really pictured myself as the type to sit across a table, waiting to be judged. I was always the one doing the talking, the convincing, the bluffing—never the one measured like a schoolboy in front of a headmistress. Yet here I was, walking into Davenport Holdings, clutching more nerves than sense. Walking into the Davenport Tower was like stepping into another universe. A forty-story glass-and-steel tower gleaming like it had something to prove. Impressive, if you hadn’t seen the view from my own penthouse office, which by the way, stretched higher than this building even dared.I’ll hand it to Davenport... she knew how to dress a building.The chrome doors glared back at me, spotless and sharp, the kind of shine that hurts your eyes if you stare too long. And an entrance wide enough to swallow a Rolls-Royce whole... Davenport clearly enjoyed the art of first impressions. Everything screamed money, ambition, control. Most people would

  • I DIVORCED HIM! NOW, HE REGRETS   FIRST LADY IN WAITING

    CHAPTER 74–FIRST LADY IN WAITING BRANDY'S POVI was rubbing serum into my cheeks when I hit dial. The phone barely rang once before Richard picked up.“Good morning, Richard,” I said, lightly, dabbing serum along my cheekbone.“Hey, Brandy. What’s up?”“I’m fine, and you?” I grabbed my moisturizer.“Good.”I arched a brow at myself in the mirror, smoothing the moisturizer into my skin.“I thought you said you and Larry were going out and coming back late.”“Things happened,” Richard replied. “He decided to go back home and think.”Think? Seriously? I rolled my eyes. Men and their dramatic ‘thinking.’“Think? About what?” I pressed, though my tone was more amused than worried.“Oh, he didn’t tell you?”“No, he didn’t.” Typical Larry. Always keeping the fun part to himself.“Well…” Richard paused, like he was about to drop a bomb. “Mrs. Davenport has agreed to sign the contract with the company. On one condition.”I stopped mid-stroke, cotton pad hovering over my skin. “Condition?”“Yea

  • I DIVORCED HIM! NOW, HE REGRETS   TWENTY-FIVE MILLION REASONS

    CHAPTER 73 – TWENTY-FIVE MILLION REASONS LARRY’S POVThe walk to the car felt heavier than the entire visit. She didn’t so much as glance at me, her steps clipped, her silence sharper than any words she could’ve thrown. By the time we reached the curb, she yanked the door open herself and slipped inside, shutting it with a firm, deliberate thud like she wanted to build a wall between us.When I slid in behind the wheel a moment later, the air was already charged. Her arms were crossed, jaw clenched tight, eyes fixed out the window as if looking anywhere but at me was the only way to keep from exploding.“That,” she snapped, “was not the deal.”I leaned back, exhaling. “What exactly wasn’t the deal?”Her eyes swung to mine like twin daggers... friendly enough to kill, flashing with a mix of hurt and anger, burning straight through me. “Don’t play dumb, Larry. You told me I was going to pretend to be your girlfriend. Not fiancée. Not bride-to-be. Girlfriend. And then your grandfather.

  • I DIVORCED HIM! NOW, HE REGRETS   THE PROPOSITION

    CHAPTER 72 – THE PROPOSITION LARRY'S POVShe blinked, confusion written all over her face.“Your… fake girlfriend?”“Yeah,” I said with a half-smile, watching her reaction closely. “You pretend to be with me, just for a while. Long enough to convince someone important. In return… I’ll cover your brother’s treatment.”Her lips parted, then closed, then parted again. It was like her tongue couldn’t find its footing. She just stared at me, disbelief clouding her eyes, then scoffed like I’d asked her to juggle flaming knives.“That’s ridiculous,” she muttered finally, shaking her head hard enough that the strands of hair at her temple slipped loose. “Nobody does that.”“Then consider me nobody,” I shot back, softer this time. “Look, I’m not asking you to marry me tomorrow or whatever. I just need you to stand beside me and play the part. That’s all. The rest… I’ll handle.”She hesitated, biting her lip, eyes flickering down to her clenched fists. The silence between us stretched thin, an
