All Chapters of SHE SIGNED THE DIVORCE NOW SHE REGRETS: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Priela's POV“ Are you looking for this?” I turned back and saw Carlan holding my pochette. His hand dug into his pocket as he walked towards me.The air outside the boardroom was a total difference. And I can already remember how suffocating the meeting was. And of course Damian came to Jaxon's rescue by dismissing the board meeting.“That was odd in there, no one saw that coming. Did you plan that?” Carlan asked, a soft smile tugging his lips.I shrugged my shoulders and heaved, “ I don't plan. I mean, I got better things to do with my time, you all just suck at keeping a secret really secret.”He laughed, baffled, his brow twitched, “ Wait, don't tell me you have been sticking your nose on everyone?” He asked, planting his hands on his face and throwing me a suspicious look.I shook my head, “What? No, don't look at me like that, okay? Why are you looking at me like that?”“How?” He laughed.“Like that! On your face.”“I'm not looking at you like anything, just tell me you've not

Circe's POV Why do I feel my chest ache like someone was trying to pull off the strings connecting my heart?Somehow this reminded me of how Drayton flirted with every other girl in college back then.“Watch out.” I gasped as the waiter walked past me with a tray of filled drinks, swirling skillfully on his arm.Realizing I had been glued to a spot and my teeths were clenched. I unclenched them quickly, brushing myself out of my revelry before I caused a scene here.“There you are,” Drayton hollered, waving his hands over to me when he saw me.I forced a smile that didn't touch my heart.“You all gotta excuse daddy now,” he said dismissively to the girls who went ahead to whimper like some lost dogs.“Yeah, yeah, we will have fun next time,” he kissed them one by fucking one. And as if it wasn't enough he smacked one of their asses before they all left.Then he turned to me, “ I'm really sorry about that, Circe. They just find it hard to resist me.” He pulled me and made me sit besi

Circe's POV “ I really need to see a doctor and probably get some rest.”I ran my palm over my sweaty face, swiping my hair behind my ears.Shoving the last of my personal stuff into my handbag, I prepared to just go home. I've been too busy lately, I barely rest and taking this one day off won't ruin a thing.Before leaving my office, I boxed in a message to Caspian to make sure he's aware of my departure.‘ I'm going home. I think I need to get some rest. I just wanted to let you know that my office is empty for anyone who wants to see me. You can attend to them.’ I clicked the send button and waited for his response, which came earlier than I had thought.‘Oh great, yeah.’Was all he typed, typical of Caspian.Can nag you till you give up the ghost…physically. But he doesn't text much and has never called me. I don't remember.My shoes knocked against the floor as I walked out from the office, towards the lobby.Whispers seeped into my ears as I walked past the workers. And thei

Priela's POV“ The Odyssey XI mission led by the world space hero, Xurion Marksman, has been announced as the biggest planetary exploration ever attempted–”I watched the television silently in my bedroom. My body felt weak like a beaten leaf that I fought to keep my eyelids open—not because I was sleepy but because of how extremely weak I was.As I laid there I kept wondering how my life was at the edge of crumbling. Or already crumbled.How am I supposed to get married to someone I barely know? And in the next one week.One week and my freedom would be taken from me and my wings broken completely.Even my mother couldn't talk her way into the heart-stabbing decision they made.She'd tried to make me see the good in their idea.“ Your father knows what's best for you, Priela. Trust him. You will get to choose who you want to be with amongst the three bachelors and that's fair enough.” She had said.But I didn't like the idea. I never liked it.The idea of living sorely under some man

Priela's POV “Mr. Hargrove, may I see you please?” I had successfully caused a scene and now scornful gazes were shot at me while some people glared at me with unspoken insults. But I hadn't only drawn the attention of the security men who had started to mount around me with hard glares and sticks in hand, but Jules Hargrove also looked my way. The security man who approached me first, seethed. “ Lady, you have to keep your voice down and stop causing a scene.” They shoved me to their midst, barricaded my view and tried to shut me off but I wasn't done. I stood on my toes and waved again. “Over here, Mr. Hargrove. Mr. Hargrove!” The head security, whose dressing was quite different from the rest, approached me from behind and thundered, “ Throw her out now!” My heart hammered in my chest as they gripped me and started to drag me out. “ Do you know who I am?” I asked, absent-minded that I was under a guise and none of them knew who I really was. A deep male voice surged
