All Chapters of THREE CHANCES LEFT EX-HUSBAND : Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

Dione’s POV I never thought the reason my husband left me for another woman would be because I committed fifteen years of my life and sold my family assets to help his dream. “Drink up now! Dione.” Aldric’s lips moved against my ear. Clinking sounds of glass wares mixed with depleting applause surged in the dimly lit hall. The acrid smell of vodka, seared my nostrils as I brought the glass closer to my mouth. “I can't drink alcohol,” my words tumbled out. His hand reached for my lap under the table and he squeezed softly, “ This is not the time to joke around, Dione. I just signed my biggest deal tonight and as my wife you are supposed to drink to it before the board to celebrate. So drink up now,” He gritted into my ears. He cleared his throat, buying himself the attention of everyone, then started, “ I want to raise a toast to my beautiful wife, Dione Sterling. Without her I wouldn't be here today,” He said and turned to me, “I love you, Dione.” He pressed his lips against

Dione's POV “Thanks for driving me home,” I said, my voice shyly low, as we stopped at the house. My utterance broke the damp silence that had clouded us. Maybe because I wasn't used to being driven home by someone different. But, I had no choice since Aldric had left me at the hotel in shame. In front of everyone.

For kidney diseases?” He asked rather curiously.“Just give me my pills, Aldric” I asked, my voice tired.The searing pain in my ribs threatened to shut down my system.“Wow, you deserve an oscar for acting, Dione, just wow.” He said rather astonished, his expression growing serious.Acting? This pain all over my body, is acting?It riled me up the most, I just gritted my teeth and stretched out my hand for my medication but they didn't even touch him.“You even bought props to act with? But it's not gonna work. Because I know it was Lily who donated the kidney,” he hissed, glancing all over me with contempt, like I disgusted him so badly he could puke in my face."Give me my pills," “I've handed Lily over the Vaughn project.
