"What else is left to do now?" I asked her with an arched brow.

"We just need to finish the female selection, please ask Mr McConnell to exercise a little more patience. Maybe try to distract him to give us some time ma'am." My secretary pleaded.

I nodded my head. "Got it. Don't worry, he won't complain about the time we've spent so long as I am by his side. I have a few tricks up my sleeve." I smirked, proud and confident.

With a grateful smile, she bowed her head and turned around, disappearing at a corner to finish up her pending and most important job.

A soft sigh left my mouth. I couldn't believe the things I had done so far and I refused to believe the things I would do to make him forget about the reason he even came here in the first place.

But I was determined, my image and reputation were on the line. Because when it came to business, Fabian loved to keep all pleasure out. But I planned to bring that pleasure, even though he didn't ask for it.

  • Your Honor, I Want A Divorce!   As pathetic as me

    The day was full of events. Lizzy and Nelly had dropped by for a fun date and also to help Nelly study. I had asked Fabian to hang around and teach her a few things, he was smart and was always the top student back in his school days. He didn't seem to mind as well since he was free. But night had finally come and everyone was sleeping peacefully. Everyone except for myself. I laid on my side with my back towards Fabian. His warm hand was wrapped around my waist and my back pressed against his firm chest. Such a small gesture made me feel so protected. But sleep was too far from me. For some reason, my eyes didn't even feel heavy or tired. I reached for my phone and checked the time. It was a little after three in the morning. A sigh drew from my lips. "What's bothering you?" Fabian's voice took me by surprise. I turned to face him in bed and he opened his eyes. Those dark portals pulled me in at once. "I thought you were asleep." He smiled softly. "How can I fall asleep when

  • Your Honor, I Want A Divorce!   A good or bad time?

    THIRD POV Tears trailed uncontrollably down her face, washing off her make up. She didn't know how long she was there, but something urged her to rise to her feet. Her knees buckled, the sudden ache spreading all through her body. Her legs were starting to grow numb. She knew it was time to stand up or else the pain would get worse. "That's not a pretty sight to see." A voice said from behind her. She turned around and to her surprise, Damian was standing there with his hands buried in the depth of his pants pockets and a smug smile on his handsome face. Driven by rage, she rushed towards him and sent her palm across his face. "You disgusting filthy liar!" She spat out in his face. The smile on Damian's face slipped off like a mask and when he turned his head to meet her gaze again, what she saw in them made her take a sudden step backwards. He licked the inside of his lower lips and winced softly. "That stung." He said with a dangerous smirk on his face. His eyes had drained

    THIRD POV Ella stood at the doorstep of the mansion she shared with her fiance, it looked no bigger than a small space in Blaire's palace. She bit down on her lower lip, staring at the place from the tall roof to the bottom. Normally, it was magnificent. Standing tall and well decorated with expensive materials. Her fake set of friends were jealous of her because she seemed to be the one with the most expensive things. But now, none of it had worth in her eyes anymore. She began to think of so many things. She didn't have a personal car where as Jacob owned three. One was designated to her but she couldn't take it anywhere without his permission and there was a fixed driver as well. She wouldn't have minded but she was not allowed to take it out at will. Now that Jacob was on a trip, the garage was locked. Even if it wasn't, the keys were no where to be found. When she thought about it, she realized Blaire never had a personal car when she was married to Jacob as well. Also, he

    She seemed like she was lost in her thoughts for a moment. Her eyes wandered around the room as if searching for answers to a question that was asked only in her head. Then she suddenly glared at me, flames burning in her eyes as rage made her clench her fist. "Whatever it is you are trying to achieve, just forget it. Whatever is running through your head right now, it's too late for any of that. "I'm in the wrong?" She scoffed a laugh with a roll of her eyes. "Hey, she isn't just your mother, she is my mother too. She gave birth to me so I have equal rights to her like you do–" "Equal? Is this what you call equal? Taking her away from me is what you call equal?" I squinted my eyes, trying to see the sense behind her words. She let out a laugh filled with so much scorn and evil. "Hey, open your eyes, will you? Take her away from you? I did no such thing. She threw you away with her own hands because you were a cheap knock off of the useless man she gave her heart to at first–"Ang

  • Your Honor, I Want A Divorce!   In the wrong

    I stood in front of Ella, wondering why I felt the need to ask for permission before meeting with her dad. After all, he was my step dad as well. She stared at the ground, as if she had been swallowed by her thoughts and didn't even remember that someone else was in the same room.A few days earlier, Fabian had returned with the results from the small investigation he was doing regarding the texter. To my surprise, he placed a picture before me and asked me to check if I recognized either of them. I felt my jaw drop at the faces I saw in the picture. "Do you recognize them?" His voice was soft as he asked for the second time. I nodded my head, gripping hard on my emotions to control them. "Yes… this is my step dad and my… dad." The last word left my mouth in a struggle, leaving behind a bitter after taste. His strong arms rested on my shoulder and squeezed it comfortingly. "I made sure to do the investigation by myself because I didn't want any mix up. I took this picture myself

  • Your Honor, I Want A Divorce!   A chance at redemption

    THIRD POV Blaire flinched at the sudden outburst. She was taken aback by Ella's action. "What did he do to you?" She could not help but to ask. For some reason, she was still worried about Ella even after everything Ella had done to her. Ella realized she had been swayed by her emotions. She blinked and swallowed. "What?" "What did Damian do to you?" She clarified. Ella shook her head. "That's none of your business. Forget everything I said. Tell me why you called me here, it is certainly not to quench my thirst for knowledge about you." "Obviously." Blaire responded. "I wanted to go straight to the point anyway. I know that you hate me because your father cared about me." Ella's eyes widened. "How do you–""Like I said, your mother betrayed you for a few millions." Ella cursed underneath her breath. She tried to keep acting tough. "So what? Do you feel sorry for what you did to me?" Blaire let out a laugh. Almost like she was mocking Ella. "Sorry? I guess I do. I feel sorry
