Chapter 5

With that she turned her back on both of them and left. Tears flowed on her face uncontrollably as she sat down on her car. They wouldn’t stop no matter how much she tried to. Why was it that difficult not to cry for him? She had promised herself never to shed tears for him but once again she had failed terribly.

Since she got married to Daniel, she has shed so many tears for him, she just became overwhelmed. Nora couldn’t bear the lonely nights, the constant disappointments and the lack of love. She was done and she didn’t wish to pursue him anymore.

Aria produced a victorious smile seeing the pitiful look on Nora’s face. Before she came back, she wasn’t sure whether Daniel would take her back. But she had to try, he was her first and Nora was just a distraction in their life.

All she had to do was to rekindle the love that they used to share and all will be well. Daniel, will soon divorce Nora and go back to her. Things were even better because Daniel promised her that he wasn’t going to listen to his family anymore.

“Darling, I didn’t mean to cause any trouble with your wife. If I would have known, I wouldn’t have called you to accompany me for shopping. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have followed us to the house” she feigned sadness.

“Don’t worry Aria, I have told you that she means nothing at all to me. If that was not the case then I wouldn’t be here with you, right? “He tried to reassure her.

But Aria was a step ahead of her. She had paid someone to stalk Nora. So when the person reported to her that Nora was going shopping, she in turn called Daniel. Nora thought that she was clever but she fell right in to her trap.

He kissed her on the lips and muttered” shall we continue with what we were doing”

Aria smiled and led the way to the bedroom “my pleasure”

 Nora gave up on Daniel completely, she learned the hard way that she could never change his heart. As she held her suite case, she had no idea where to go. Her friend was living in the next city and she didn’t want to bother her. Besides, she wasn’t ready for the same old lecture” I told you to leave him”

What she knew was that she will never go back to her family house, they hated her and will make her life even more difficult. She didn’t even want to imagine how the society will look at her as a divorced woman.

Left with no choice she went to the only place she knew she was going to be welcomed.

“Hello sweetie”

“Hi grandma. Oh…I am so happy to see you. Have you been taking care of yourself nowadays” Nora asked with a cheerful face. No one could have realized that it was the worst day of her life, she just chose to give up on the man she loved.

She had the at most respect for the woman in front of her, she had taken care of her during the worst times of her life. Nora never told anyone, but she would come to the mansion almost daily to take care of the woman. The woman had a heart condition and she felt that it was her duty to look out for her, may be as a repayment for her unconditional support and love.

For a long time, Lucy Wilson had been searching for a cardiologist but she wasn’t successful. Even with her fortune it was very difficult until some years back a mysterious doctor operated on her. The doctor requested for her identity to be anonymous.

Not even her famous grandson could be able to get the doctor’s identity. Daniel did everything to be able to repay the doctor, but it was just not possible.

“Don’t worry about me child, I have been great, my heart is strong now and I have been following everything that you have advised me on. However, I must ask, how it is that you are so knowledgeable about health conditions?” the old woman clutched her hands and Nora could feel it’s warmth.

She smiled at her charming face” it’s nothing special, I just like to read health journals a lot. You are just too precious to me and I wanted to make sure that you continue to take care of your heart. Have I answered you question?”

“Alright I understand, has my grandson been treating you well? “Lucy Wilson asked with concern.

“He is good to me” she lied. Nora wasn’t ready to break the sad news to the woman who has shown her nothing but love. She knew she would be disappointed and heartbroken at the same time. Then Daniel would blame her for rushing to tell her grandmother about the divorce.

She was at a risk of shock because her heart was still vulnerable, so she would do everything possible to protect her.

So she chose to keep quiet about it, she would find a good time to tell her that soon she will be no longer her granddaughter in law. However how much it also broke her heart, there was no going back, Daniel never loved her and he will never fall in love with her.

She should better try to get him out of her heart so that she can move on with her life. As for her family she had done her part for 3 whole years and from now onwards they were on their own. She was only going to live for herself and try as much as possible to make up for the lost years.

Old Madam Wilson thought that she reminded her of her younger self and she wanted her to stay with Daniel for the rest of their lives. However, that was not possible because they were soon divorcing. Nora might try to hide it from her but she could see it well on her face. Things were not good with her grandson’s marriage.

“Did you two fight again? I can see that you are carrying your suitcase. I don’t mean to question you a lot but you know you are always welcomed in my house.” Lucy asked with concern, she just knew that her grandson was up to no good again.

When will he learn that Nora was the only woman who can live with him? He was so moody and unbearable and Nora was the only patient woman who was able to bear with him
