[ Adeline ]Tensed silence dominated the cold AC air inside the car as we drove back to our house from Arnold’s house. I was sitting beside my husband whereas a very silent and uncomfortable Emily was on my other side. I insisted to drop her off at the house, she refused initially but I had to act on front of my husband.After all, it was the matter of only a night, tomorrow she’ll be gone from our lives forever and I thanked Arnold for being fair and considerate for my future.“Xavier, can you drop me off at my friend’s house, it’s in the next block?” Emily broke the silence.“No, you’re staying at the mansion for tonight. You can pack your stuff while I arrange an apartment for you by the end of next day. We’ll get divorce but I’d make sure that you don’t lack anything. It is the least I can do for you and please, don’t stop me. You’re still my responsibility.” He responded.Jealousy burned my heart, I wanted to push her out of the car but I had to refrain myself from making any stu

[ Xavier ]I felt elated, actually on the top of the world when Adeline expressed her wish of having our child. I hadn’t to ask her, my wife herself gave me a reason to love her even more. “What are you thinking, my love?” Adeline’s sweet voice snapped me out of my thoughts. I tilted my head to her side and shook my head.“We narrow escaped the watchmen, just imagine what might happen if they caught us in the middle of our act.” I teased her.“I told you that it was the real fun.” She grinned.“I think tonight we should rest. Tomorrow is going to be a hectic day for all of us.” I said and our feet halted in the foyer of our house.“Everything happens for a reason, Xav and I am sure Arnold has seen something coming up. He is trying to protect all of us.” She said. I could see relief in her eyes as tomorrow, I and Emily will file for a divorce.My father has the best attorney at his service and it’d not be a big problem for us to finalize the divorc

[ Adeline ]“Good morning, baby. You slept till late. You usually never sleep this late?” Mom asked me kissing my cheek as I sat down for the breakfast.“Yes, Mom, today I want to be recharged. It’s a very important day for me and for my marriage.” I told her with excitement, last night, I slept peacefully because I trust my husband and I know he’d not back out from his promises.“I guess your husband is taking you out.” Mom gave me a teasing look. I roamed my eyes to spot Xavier but he hadn’t come for the breakfast.“Your husband left very early in the morning. I was up for my morning yoga routine. I asked him what made him leave this early but he said that he’d be back by nine.” Mom said as she observed me.It shocked me to the core. Xavier usually doesn’t leave without telling me unless it’s urgent and I am not available.“Hey baby, please, don’t be sad. He must have a reason. You can ask him when he comes home.” Mom tried to cheer up my mood.“Maybe it’s an emergency.” I shook my

[ Adeline ]Nervousness was pooling in my heart as we waited outside the court building for Emily who hadn’t showed up for the divorce settlement. Xavier was calm because he didn’t know the real face of his innocent Emily.“The proceeding will start in fifteen minutes, Xavier. Where is she?” I finally asked him as my patience ran low with her.“The car must be stuck in the traffic.’ He said.I said nothing further. All I wanted to drag her here and shove the pen in her hand and force her to sign the papers.“I am done with this woman.” I cursed under my breath and stormed away to clear my head.“Adeline, please stop. Don’t make this more difficult for us. I have sent my driver and bodyguard to bring her here safely.” He shouted from behind but my mood was too spoiled to pay him any heed.“Adeline, please try to understand.” He said again but this time in a defeated tone.I was tired of reaching to the same point every time I think it was going to be over.He didn’t come after me and I

[ Adeline ]I couldn’t believe how quickly Emily changed her colours and tried to give Xavier a silent warning. I am scared to think what could she possibly ask in alimony. I don’t care if she demands everything we own, I just want her out of Xavier’s life forever.“What are you thinking, my love?” My husband asked me while stroking my hairs gently as we cuddled on the couch, enjoying the weather outside, the sky turned grey all of a sudden and the rainfall from the balcony of our room was a heavenly sight.“Nothing, I don’t think we can go out tonight. Look at the weather, I don’t think it’d stop anytime soon.” I said hiding my original thoughts, he was already going through mental and emotional turbulence, I didn’t want to give him another reason to stress out himself.He smiled and pulled me more closer, I can die for his beautiful smile, “I don’t care if we watch a movie in the theatre or on the couch in the living room, everything and every place is perfect for me if you’re with
