บททั้งหมดของ Divorcing my billionaire husband, his best friend wants me : บทที่ 51 - บทที่ 60

JOANNA. Two days later..It was finally the day Asher would get the court’s approval and everything. Thanks to Luther, we had strategically come up with a plan. To barge in and annul the agreement. Our plans so far were to reveal Luther and I’s marriage, then my divorce with Asher..I know it would come off as a shock to everyone but that was the plan. And maybe when all of this dies down, Luther and I would go our separate ways..Living with Luther had been so fantastic, I smiled often because all he did was tease me. Even though the world felt like it was coming to an end when Asher betrayed me, Luther gave me hope, gave me the reason to smile again. It wasn't easy moving on from Asher but with Luther in the picture, everything felt easier for me. “Let's go, Jo” Luther started stepping towards the door after coming downstairs. I was prepared before and we were just heading to the court..“Okay” I replied and we stepped outside. Luther opened his car door for me and I stepped in. E

JOANNA..I hissed"You're bribing me, trying to justify your actions. You could have just shared your struggles..I would understand. There's no one that wouldn't feel bad." I said, my voice skeptical.Luther chuckled. "Come on, trash it. I didn't mean it that way. And I didn't want you feeling guilty. Asher made himself like that.. So, What's our next move?" he asked, his eyes sparkling with amusement. I brushed the convo and moved onto the next since he was back on that energy.. "We need to meet our fathers for the marriage." I answered At least our fake marriage was supposed to look real to the outside world, we need to follow legal protocols. . "Yes, that's a good point.” Luther nodded, his expression seriou.“ We should coordinate our stories and make sure our fathers believe this is a real marriage." He turned to me briefly before focusing on the road once more. “Yeah, so who should we meet first?” “I think yours, Jo. My father isn't going to be much of a problem. He's more

ASHER. I sat on the couch, nursing my glass of wine, the liquid burning my throat as I swallowed hard. Life was useless. Super useless. I lost everything, everything and more. I don't know how this happened. I don't know how I ended up with a fake agreement and now, the news about me and Cassie was all over the internet. That was super scandalous. Our investors pulled out and the company is currently at the verge of going bankrupt because of my carelessness. Cassie tried to approach me, concern etched on her face."Asher, please stop drinking. It's okay," she said softly, pleading. But I ignored her, my gaze fixed on the wine as I gobbled down another shot. Life wasn't worth living anymore. I felt super miserable. “Asher. Please!” Cassie pleaded, coming close to me. When she tried to take the wine from me, I pushed her away roughly."Stay away, Cassie" I growled, my voice barely above a whisper. "Do I have any reason to stop? Huh? Just stay away” I warned..The words hung in the

JOANNA. "Yeah, I'm glad the whole thing is over," I said, taking a sip of my drink. "But Asher is still texting me, pleading for forgiveness.” I resumed eating once more. Luther's expression turned dismissive. "Just ignore him. He's not worth your time, I promise” I nodded. " I know right? He is such an idiot. Okay, enough about me. Let's talk about you. You said you were going to tell me about your crush before... what happened? I haven't got to hear it yet?” I asked him..Luther's eyes sparkled with amusement, and he leaned in, a hint of a smile on his face. "Well, I....Yeah, I said that," Luther began, a hint of a smile on his face. I know he was contemplating if he should speak up or not. He has a problem talking about his love life. But one of these days I'm going to get him to say something."Okay, so there's this girl... I've loved her all my life. I've had eyes for her only, all my life. She has been occupying my mind” Luther’s piercing blue eyes were fixed on me. He seemed

LUTHER. I shut my doors, a mischievous smile on my lips. Joanna didn't know she just signed a real marriage certificate forever. This is awesome and I loved it. It made my heart tingle. I watched her signature perfectly scribbled at the document as I beamed over and over again. The next mission I was on was to seduce her. I burst into laughter, for a moment, I thought I had gone crazy. I carefully kept the document in the drawer and pulled off my clothes to shower. I came out of the shower as water dripped from my hair, tracing slow, deliberate lines down my chest. The towel lay low around my hips and I was ready to go get what I wanted . I raked my hand through my wet hair, slicking it back, sending more droplets scattering across the floor. I was boosting my confidence. I had to be confident! I know Joanna wanted a distraction from Asher and I was going to be her distraction. I was ready to give it my all to get her. I picked my phone which was all part of the plan and knocked
