Semua Bab SORRY DEAR EX, IT'S YOUR LOSS, NOT MINE: Bab 441 - Bab 450

Beth POVI wanted Jenna to forget about her troubles even for a day and have fun, but I did not realize she would take it to the extreme. During lunch, she ordered wine to go with our meal.She chugged down glasses of wine while we all stared at her.Briana must have tipped the girls off about the problem, as they all looked at her with pain in their eyes. We all love Jenna. She is the most down-to-earth person we know. Seeing her looking like she was carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders bothers us no end. Midway through our meal, Jenna pushed back her chair and got up from the table. “Where are you going?” “The bathroom. I need to p**.” Jenna replied and giggled. She wiped her mouth with the back of her head. The unconcerned way she did that caused an alarm in my head. I stood from my seat. “Come on. Let me accompany you.” Jenna held her hand in warning. “I am fine. Don’t worry about me.” She assured me. The girls and I looked at each other, but we couldn’t d

Jenna POVCharles looked taken aback. His eyes grew wide as if he did not expect me to say those words, but I didn’t have any control over my mouth anymore as fury gripped me senselessly. The frustration of the past few days took its toll on me. The feeling of betrayal intensified the fury that had overtaken me. Seeing the reaction on his face gave me immense pleasure. In my pain, I wanted to lash out at him to make him feel even an iota of what I was feeling, and judging from the expression on his face, I succeeded. Charles rarely showed emotion. He was always composed and clear-headed, but right now, I saw pain traced on his face when I hurled the words I wanted to tell him to at least relieve myself of the pain.I was drowning with it, and I needed a lifeline. I don’t care about the backlash on Charles. I only wanted a reprieve!“Jenna!” He cried in surprise. Disbelief laced his tone. “What? You are denying it when everyone at the hospital knew that you were having an affai

Jenna POV How dare he blatantly claim ownership of me when he admitted to pursuing another woman? I shook my head ruefully, smiling bitterly at the thought.  Sometimes, even if you stay with a person for years, you can never fully understand their character because people change depending on the situation.  Seething in fury, I marched out of our house with Charles’ words echoing.  I continued to march out of our neighborhood, hoping to see a cab.  Our house was located in a private neighborhood. Cabs are not allowed inside its perimeter so I had to walk a little further.&n

Charles POV Hearing what Jenna did filled me with panic.  Jenna had no friends outside of my family.  She did not have any family either. She was an orphan when I met her.  Her actions only meant that I pushed her too far.  I felt a constriction in my chest that I had hurt the only woman I ever loved so much that she had thought of putting distance between us.  She was leaving everything behind. But how far did she want to go away from me? I sprung into action and ran out of my office with Brent tailing behind me.

Charles POVIn deference to Jenna's request, I called Briana to ask her to instruct the judge who handles our case to proceed with the divorce. Briana was surprised, but she respected my decision. A few minutes later, Jenna and I simultaneously received notifications on our respective phones. I looked at my phone to see that it was our divorce certificate. Our request for divorce had been approved. “You are free now, Jenna. Sorry if I have hurt you. Sorry if I made you miserable, but know always that I will love no one else except you.” I did not hear her response because my pain was too much to be able to hear outside of it. I started walking away but stopped when I realized I had to make one last request. “Please, allow me to assign a bodyguard for you.” She looked startled at my request though she did not say a word. “I wanted to ensure your safety." Her brows furrowed, necessitating the need to explain. "You are an ex-wife of a billionaire. People who wanted to hurt me
