The Ex Groom and His Dominating Revenge のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 41 - チャプター 50

ShantelleIt was already six in the evening, and I was leaving the office. I still didn't answer all of Gavin's calls. I had to complete everything because the deadline for some projects are almost near. No one could distract my attention. I didn't want to mix my personal life with my work. I also don't want the quality of my business to go down just because of the emotions I'm feeling right now. While walking in the parking lot, someone forcefully grabbed my arm. I was startled. I looked behind to see who had stopped me. It was Gavin. He looked directly into my eyes and seemed dangerous, as if he was angry at me. We exchanged looks, and I glared at him. He was surprised at how I looked at him.He suddenly let go of my hand and put his hands inside his pockets."Why aren't you answering my calls? I was worried about you," he said, and I felt he was concerned because of his voice. ‘Wait. Was Gavin apprehensive? Who did he deceive?’ I haven't yet confirmed what Nurse Peighton sa

ShantelleToday I didn't have the heart to work, so I just told Dani that I wouldn't go to the office because I had something to take care of. Ever since Nurse Peighton told me that my marriage with Gavin was fake, I have been perturbed and uneasy. 'What if what she said was true?'Albeit I tried to believe that Gavin wouldn't do it, there's a part of me that wanted to know the truth. I want to know if his words were true. So I went to the municipal office to check our marriage records. And the result was... there was nothing. There was no record that Gavin submitted our marriage certificate. No marriage license was issued under my name and Gavin from the local civil registrar. Even though I don't want to face the truth, I need to. It was all in front of me. I sucked in a deep breath and blinked my eyes repeatedly to stop my tears from spilling. My heart was heavy with betrayal. ‘Why didn't I even suspect him?’ I should have known both parties must be present when filing the r

ShantelleAs soon as I set foot in the company and headed straight to my office, I saw Cara and Dani facing back and forth outside my office as though they were thinking deeply about something. They were awoken from their reverie when they saw me and immediately dashed in front of me. From their expressions, I could see the flickering worry reflected in their eyes. However, I was not in the mood to care about them at this moment, so I went straight to my table and sat on the swivel chair, and immediately opened my laptop as soon as I was seated, and they followed suit. I was not planning on talking to them and would have ignored them, but then Dani spoke up. "Girl! Do you know how worried we were when we came to know that you hadn't come home for a few days? What happened to you and Gavin? Did you two fight, so you ran away from home?”“Do you know that he even came to my house just to look for you? He thought that I was hiding you because none of his calls got through when he was

GavinI was all alone now, thinking of what I should do. Shantelle pulled Baron away and went to his unit. My feet were stuck, and I couldn’t move at all.Earlier, Shantelle didn’t want to see me and also decided that she wouldn’t go home for a while. I made her upset because of the fake marriage. I didn’t know I would be in this big trouble when she found out about it.I asked her to go home with me, but she still didn’t want it, so I decided to drive her where she temporarily stayed. I gladly obliged, but the direction she instructed me felt familiar.Then, I noticed this was where Baron was living.I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. ‘How did this happen? Was there something going on between them?;I was furious when I looked at Shantelle with that guy earlier. Baron knew what Shantelle was to my life, so how could he have done this to me?My mind went blank, and it became clouded to the point that I went berserk and spoke hurtful words to her.I was shocked when she yelled at m

ShantelleI could only stay silent because not a single word came out of my mouth. My heart thumped furiously when I heard his following words. "When I asked for your hand in marriage last time, I was being serious. I just used your pregnancy as an excuse because I know you won't believe me when I say that I love you. I want to take care of you and our child. Please believe me that I want to build a family with you," he said pleadingly. I took a step back when he tried to touch me. As though he didn't expect it, Gavin was stunned when he saw my reaction. But I didn't want to face the same heartbreak even though his words were quite convincing. I need to guard my heart against him. I already had enough. Nonetheless, I want to give him a chance. I remembered the words Cara told me that I should not forgive Gavin easily even if I gave him a second chance. It will take time to regain my trust in Gavin... and I will do this so I won't have regrets later. I sighed when I made a decisi
