1. The letter of liberty...

ELOISERain poured down in sheets when my car suddenly shuddered and died in the middle of the road. “No, no, no...” I turned the key twice, then a third time. Nothing. My heart lurched as I grabbed my phone and called my husband. It rang. And rang. And rang, yet no answer. I called again immediately. Still nothing. “Pick up,” I whispered, gripping the phone tighter. “Damian, please pick up.”This time it went straight to voicemail. Rain soaked through my coat the second I stepped outside. Freezing water drenched my hair, my clothes, my skin as I stood helplessly beside the dead car in the middle of nowhere. I called him a few more times. And still, no response. By the time I finally managed to get home in a cab nearly an hour later, I was shivering so violently I could barely get the key into the front door. The house was dark. Empty. Damien wasn’t home. I stood in the foyer dripping rainwater onto the floor, my whole body trembling.I was about to step in,

2. The final Verdict...

ELOISE“Have you really thought this through?” Roxanne’s voice was soft, almost hesitant.I raised my coffee cup to my lips, allowing the steam to rise as I softly uttered, "Yes, I believe it is time.”Roxanne Brooke, my childhood best friend, and one of the most esteemed divorce attorneys in the city, and also, my boss.People all over the world seek her expertise for complex cases. Sitting across from me, her gaze studied me with a hint of pride and worry.We had grown up dreaming of changing the world together, side by side. While I had stumbled into love and heartbreak, she had climbed unerringly, and now, she is one of the best.Yet here she was, patient and gentle with me, as if I were still the scared little girl who would once cling to her hand in the schoolyard to avoid bullies.I set my cup down and reached for her hand. “Rox, let’s make it happen soon. I don’t want to wait any longer.”She watched me carefully; a lingering skepticism remained evident in her gaze, which, in

3. I'm not taking you...

ELOISE As soon as those words left my tongue, silence befell the room. For a few seconds, no one moved. The envelope rested on Damien's lap, his fingers poised motionlessly above it. He appeared quite stunned, which, for some reason, brought a peculiar sense of satisfaction to me. But well, not too long, when— “Finally!” Rebecca jolted out, her lips curled into a grin. “Finally you’ve said it yourself! I was wondering how long we’d have to endure this farce!” Her eyes burned into me with cruel delight. “You’ve done us a great favour. Damien should have left you long ago!” “If it wasn’t for that stupid alliance between two old men, we would have never brought someone like you into this family!” I raised a brow. Really? Now it's all blamed upon the alliance and me?... My gaze flickered over Selene once. While, in reality, she had been the core problem of all this. Damien remained silent, though, his gaze fixed intently on the envelope as though he were s

4. Change of fate...

ELOISE Damien stared at me, his eyes had turned completely cold, disbelief written all over with his pride shattered. He was as if lost in thoughts.I straightened. “Anyways,” I glanced at Damien. “See you soon, in the court.”I turned toward the door, to leave.But evil never goes silent, does it? And soon…“So you want a divorce, huh? Fine then!” This time, his pride spoke.“No, Damien!” Selene’s voice cracked. “Don't do this! What are you doing? She is your wife!”“Oh, don't worry, she didn't know this world at all. She'll just crawl back to me at the end of the day.” His voice was laced with arrogance, and relentless confidence.Too proud that he didn't even bother saying those words right before me.And honestly, it was I who was responsible for this pride to flare to this point.I didn't react though, time would answer for me this time. Therefore, I only tilted my head with a loose smile. “We shall see.”“See? Eh?” He gave me a nasty sneer. “You will crawl on your knees and b
