Lahat ng Kabanata ng Marry Me, Mistress : Kabanata 61 - Kabanata 70

A text message brought me back to my senses. I picked up my cellphone and looked at the contents of the message.I smiled seeing Gabriel's name, but it was written in his text, I don't know if I will be happy.Atty. Gabriel Carvajal:Tomorrow is the first hearing, Qotorie. do you want me to pick you up?I let out a deep breath. Actually, I just now remembered about that again.Me:Don't worry. I can manage. Thank you for reminding me.Atty. Gabriel Carvajal:Okay. Let's get this done. I hope, the court will grant your divorce immediately. Good night.I was stunned by his reply and smiled bitterly, reality hitting me hard. Honestly, all these times, I am still in denial about what is going on. But now, now that the trial for divorce is about to begin, it's as if the bitter truth is pressed on my face. I am not sure, maybe only months or weeks are left for me.I will not be Mrs. Steven Oxford anymore. I will be single again. Alone. sad Inadequate. Maybe, I was really meant to be alone.

I quickly covered my naked body with the nighties in my hand. I tried to reach for the door handle of my closet door while trying to cover my body and then pulled it shut.I leaned against the back of the door, feeling exhausted and weak in the knees. I calmed the incessant beating of my chest until I suddenly stopped and realized something.Why am I doing this?He has seen me naked a lot of times before. Why should I be shy and nervous around him now?I quickly put on my underwear and wore the nighties. I couldn't help but be annoyed by his expression I saw earlier. I saw his mouth curve into a smirk. I can't be wrong. The bastard!I hugged my clothes tighter and then walked out the door with folded arms after taking a few deep breaths.I went straight to the light switch and turned it on. The cove lighting of my room immediately lit up, giving me a better view of the man on top of my bed.And he's really not leaving?I was still nervous but I tried not to show it on my face. I canno

I find Steven being strict with the clothes I am wearing and being possessive over me very odd and inappropriate.This is not what he should be expecting from me and even more so I should not depend on his actions. I should know better than to fall more for him. I finally went outside the fitting room wearing the shirt I tucked inside the black pants he gave me."Yay! We are matching outfits!" said Zellor while laughing pointing at the clothes of the three of us. "We are so cute!"I simply passed the clothes we were wearing. We three are wearing the same black pants, we also happen to have the same white shoes so it's as if we really meant to wear a suit.I smiled weakly, a sudden wave of pain hitting me straight in the heart. If there is no divorce, if this happened months ago where everything is still okay, I am probably the happiest woman, wife, and mom right now."Let's take a picture together, Daddy!" Zellor while pulling Steven by the hand."Sure, baby." Steven nodded his head a

The text messages and calls came one after the other on my cell phone but I didn't pay attention to it, I didn't even bother to open it. I turned it off and continued to cry.I sobbed non-stop as I was stunned into nothingness. The room is literally empty, there is nothing, except for the small bathroom. And honestly, I don't know how I will sleep here too, or if I will be able to sleep.I hugged my knees tighter. When the feeling calmed down a bit, I forced my legs to stand up and approached the small window on the side. I pushed it open then stared outside, lifting my head above the starless and moonless night sky.I blinked my tired eyes and stared sadly at the sky, my heart feeling darker than the night sky.Maybe, if I had my mind when I was a baby, when my mom left me outside the orphanage, you felt the same way. Alone, cold, dark, and with no one to love. I feel like I'm being choked.I hate thinking that it's better that my parents just aborted me. I hate that I am being ungra

The afternoon traffic is sickening. It is only making the situation worse for me. I love getting out of the car because I can't wait to see Steven like this and I'm also excited to hug Zellor.I don't know why she is crying.He wants this, but why does it seem that he is the one that is hurting more? I sighed and looked away from him. Being very hungry and the cars not moving for a long time, I took a bite of the sandwich he bought for me.I sat on the passenger seat uncomfortably. If I am very impatient and can't wait for us to get to Davin to see that our son seems to like the situation. I don't know why it felt like he was enjoying the traffic.After what seemed like forever on the road, we finally made it to Davin and Nina's house. As soon as we entered the gate of their house, I immediately saw the two of them in the doorway, Davin holding onto Nina's waist while waiting for our arrival.I quickly unbuckled my seatbelt and went outside when the car stopped, half running towards t
