All Chapters of Your Honor, I Want A Divorce!: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

My steps felt unsteady as I returned to the table but I managed to keep myself from falling. He was sitting there, immersed in his phone. He seemed to be scrolling through some pages. He acknowledged my presence with a smile and went back to work. I sat down, feeling my heart thumping in my chest. The lady's words haunted my head. Only his mother and I. Did he think of me to be special enough as his mother? Did he really love me? Why would he let me sit in a place he considered to be special? I picked up my fork but my hand refused to hold it still. He looked at me and asked, "are you done?" I felt my brow twitch, "huh? What?" I asked in response, feeling quite nervous. "I just wanted to know if you were done eating. Maybe they could bring in tea and biscuits." He suggested. "Oh yes. I'm done." I managed to bring a smile to my face though I feared my nervousness would reflect through it. He nodded softly and ushered some waiters over. They immediately cleared the table and a

We sat through the rest of the ride in silence. As we arrived at my RV, his driver pulled up and hurried to open the door for me. Not even for his boss. I turned to Fabian with a smile, "You don't have to step out of the car, I can go on my own." "I--""I mean it." I said with a smile. "Thank you for tonight and also thank you for getting such a pretty place for me. I'll be waiting for your message regarding the price." He nodded his head softly. "Goodnight Blaire. I can call you that right?" I couldn't help but to smile. "Yes. Goodnight... Fabian." Taking off my seat belt, I got out of the car and turned around for one last wave before turning around to go inside. "Blaire!" I heard a voice call out to me the moment the car zoomed off. Turning around, I couldn't stop my face from morphing into a frown as I saw who it was. "What are you doing here, Jacob? How did you even know this place?" He walked over towards me and stopped right in front of me. His blue eyes stared at the p

THIRD POV Jacob walked into his apartment with a weary sigh. He was surprised to see Ella in the living room, but he didn't smile, not after the stunt she pulled at his grandparents house. "Are you out of your mind?" He asked her in a soft tone. "How could you open your mouth and say such things to my grandparents of all people? Not my mother, not my father, my grandparents! The people you know are in charge of everything wealth related. What will you do if I get kicked out of the will, huh?" She smiled coyly. "You won't. I know it. You're the one overthinking this." She walked over towards him and wrapped her arms around his shoulder. He wanted to push her away but decided not to act hostile. Instead, he stared down at her with a firm expression on his face. She continued. "Your grandparents-- grandpa mostly-- like it when a person can stand up to them, they feel you can do anything in this world if you have the guts to look them in the eye and say exactly what is on your mind."

I sat up in bed, feeling a little tired from the short sleep I had. Jessica still laid beside me, snoring softly and enjoying her sleep. It was exactly six thirty in the morning and sleep had drained from my eyes even though I fell asleep around 3am. I slid out of bed gently, trying my best not to wake her up as she slept like a baby. Picking up my phone, I walked out of the living room and went to check on Gemma in her bedroom. She was still fast asleep as well, snuggling with her stuffed bunny toy. A relieved smile formed on my face. I had not gotten the chance to see her after I got home last night, thankfully though, she was already fast asleep by that time. I went back into my bedroom and changed into my exercising clothes. I could never go for a run without my ear pods as well. After grabbing a bottle of water from the kitchen, I went out for a short jog. The weather was nice and the breeze was cool. Some people who had to go to work early in the morning were already on t

I hung up the call after agreeing to meet with her at my store. Whatever she was planning, I didn't want to have a part in it, but I just wanted to hear her out first. Maybe she could have thought about everything she had done to me and wanted to finally change. Jessica stood in front of me with her hands planted on her hips. "Are you actually going to go? You know that that vile girl cannot and should not be trusted!" "I know Jessica but I just want to find out what she has to say. She sounded pretty serious on the phone so I thought that maybe--""Maybe she has your intention at heart? No way! Don't be fooled by her voice. She knows you will go if she sounds pretty serious which obviously you are about to leave. "Ella might have been born from the same mother as you but she is not your sister. She doesn't care about you and she never will. For all we know, she is already thinking about how to steal Gemma's Collection from you and probably Gemma as well!" She threw her hands in t
