I Need You Ex-wife! 22: Liam Is Missing
VICTORIA ~"How time flies," I mumbled inwardly, staring at the cute photos of Liam on my phone when he was a few months old.Fast forward to today, he's already five. Brilliant, energized, and smart, just like his mother. (Yikes.)Meanwhile, Benita had gone back to Manhattan City after the memorable visit.Philip, on the other hand, hasn't left us either. He keeps showing up and supporting me and Liam to a point everyone in the neighborhood thinks and sees him as his father.Nonetheless, he hasn't stopped proposing marriage, but I have persisted, insisting I'm not ready for that yet.I even wanted to connect him to Benita, my friend, but he refused.Albeit they exchanged contacts, he hadn't made any move, insisting I'm the one he wants.Benita also was not helping matters. She was reluctant, as if she were doing me a favor by being in a relationship with him.My mind was so glued to the pictures that I
I Need You Ex-wife! 21: Regrets
BRANDON ~ Watching Elese and the strange man openly express their love to each other made me nearly confront them out of jealousy. I felt jealous even though my heart doesn't belong to her anymore, but because she had never been this feminine and romantic towards me even when we were secretly dating not to mention now we're married. The man reached across the table, his fingers brushing hers. Elese didn’t pull away. She smiled instead, wide and genuine, the kind of smile that made my stomach turn violently. My first instinct was to walk over. My feet shifted forward, one step, then another, my pulse roaring in my ears, drowning out the restaurant noise. I imagined myself standing at their table and imagined the look on Elese’s face when she realized I had seen everything. Shock. Fear. Guilt. Or worse, nothing at all. “What the hell is this, Elese?” I rehearsed silently. “Is this what you do now?” The man said something that made her laugh again, and I froze, snapping
I Need You Ex-wife! 20: Someone Is After My Life
BRANDON ~I was in my room meditating.Just when I thought I had found a solution to my problem, it turned out there's no escape route.The threat from Elese after I initiated that divorce had made me become so calm. I was literally traumatized knowing that there's nothing else I can do about it.It's either I continue with the union for my peace of mind and also get Victoria back, or I expose my true self to the world, which would cost me even more of my mental health.I mean, how can I stand in the spotlight when they have known about my darkest secrets and desires?I exhaled a sigh of frustration and tried to shrug off the thoughts in my head. I needed to concentrate on work.At about twelve o'clock p.m., I received a call from Barrister Frank, and then I knew he must be calling concerning the divorce proceedings.Like he said, we need to come to the court in order to get our divorce certificates."He must be worried I hadn't called him since then," I mumbled, running my hands on m
I Need You Ex-wife! 19: Benita's Visit
VICTORIA ~ "Oh my God, I can't believe you went through all this in Brandon's hand," I exclaimed in disbelief after listening to Benita's story. She has finally made it to Asheville City. When she got to my place yesterday, it was already night due to her flight being delayed in Manhattan. Because of this, we could not have a discussion at all. She couldn't even eat the dinner I served her because she was exhausted. Initially, she said she would eat it but needed to rest first, and that rest lasted until this morning. "I'm really sorry that you went through all this because of me." She chuckled and replied, "You don't have to apologize, dear. You were never the cause." I let out a deep sigh of relief, though it was hard for the guilt to leave my mind. "So what would you like to have for breakfast?" I questioned as I stood up to head towards the kitchen. "You know you didn't eat last night, so you need to replace that dinner spot with breakfast," I said jokingly, and we both l
I Need You Ex-wife! 18: Blackmail
BRANDON ~After listening to Barrister Frank's counsel, my facial expression, which had been gloomy, brightened. Indeed, it's good to have legal experts."So by willing everything under my mom's name, I wouldn't stand a chance to lose most of my properties?" I asked, trying to be sure."You wouldn't lose a penny," he reassured, bringing smiles to my face."Thank you so much, Barrister. You should start with the divorce paper preparation as soon as possible. I need this divorce more than anything else right now.""I don't wish to stay even an hour with Elese, talk more of living with her in the same building," I lamented as I walked out.My remark got Luke amused, but he withheld his laughter to maintain professionalism."It's settled already, Mr. Brandon. I'll inform you by evening when I'm done with it."Leaving the office, I felt relieved. At least I can walk out freely from this bondage called marriage withou
I Need You Ex-wife! 17: Considering Divorce
BRANDON ~ I left Elese's house at six o'clock p.m. for Greyson Resort, where I stopped over to cool off my mind first. With the way I was feeling, I might not be able to drive home safely because I wouldn't concentrate fully on the road. My mind would linger on the incident at Elese's house just as it is currently. If someone had told me Elese would do what she did when I walked out of her face, I would have never believed it. Common sense couldn't even tell her to run after me and pretend to be sorry, pleading for forgiveness. At the resort, the thought of what I encountered couldn't get off my mind despite the lively activities going on. "I'll have to divorce her regardless," I concluded, gritting my teeth in pain. I left the resort by eight o'clock after my friend Philip called to say that he has something to share with me and wouldn't want it to be in public. Philip is my ver
