THE MARRIAGE HE BURNS: The divorce He Regret のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 61 - チャプター 70

Alaric POVAfter I left Marissa’s office, I kept thinking about what happened between me and Marissa. What if she chooses Matt? But I shook the thought out of my mind.Stella called, asking why I left her. I tried explaining that I had things to do, but she started getting emotional.When I got to her ward, she demanded to know where I went. I ignored her, asking if she wanted anything.Stella said she wanted an engagement party again, and then a wedding. And she would love to announce the baby to the world. The same unknown number called her, but she switched off her phone.I was invited to the Ross Anniversary party, and Stella insisted on going with me. I should have known the party she was telling the doctor about was the Ross Anniversary.Knowing she would show off, I still let her do as she wished. On our way there, I listened as Prissy told Stella about Lucian Alden.“I told Lucia about Marissa. I am sure soon Marissa will be thrown out, and Lucien will be mine alone,” Prissy s

Marissa POVEver since that day at the Ross Anniversary, I hadn’t talked to Matt. Since then, I felt ashamed for asking that question at that moment.“Lucia,” Lucien called. I turned.“We are here,” he said as my car stopped at the Monroe mansion. I was a little sad about seeing Matt.We climbed out of the car and walked into the party hall. “Remember, go along with everything I do,” I said to Lucien. He nodded, and I smiled.I intentionally asked Lucien to come with me because I wanted to see Raina’s reaction when she discovered Lucien was at the same party.I found my table, and Lucien sat beside me. I looked around to see if Matt was also here. “I thought Lucia Alden said her brother won’t be here?” someone said from the crowd. I smirked.“Or maybe the siblings aren’t that close anymore?” another asked. Be patient, I said to myself, as if talking to them. The real show was about to begin.I looked up to see Prissy storm over to my table, her face red in anger. I groaned inwardly…n

Alaric POVWhat the hell is happening?!Lucia held my hand longer than I expected. Stella noticed the air around us and quickly held my other hand. Lucia let go of my hand and smiled.“I heard you partnered with us…,” Lucia said, asking me.“Here,” Prissy said, appearing from nowhere, and she was holding a drink out for Lucia to collect from her. One thing about Prissy is that she would never help you. But seeing her do it for Lucia was surprising and not surprising. I think marrying into the Aldens is a huge deal for her.“Thanks, Prissy,” Lucia said, collecting the drink from her. Prissy smiled as if she had been given a lot of money.“So, Alaric. Can I call you Alaric? Since our companies are partners, we should be friends too…,” Lucia said.I was still in shock at first… wait, is she flirting with me right in front of Stella?“Yes… you can,” I said. Prissy smiled, looking at Lucia as if she was a goddess.Stella tried to open her mouth to talk, but Lucia cut her off. “If you’re n

Alaric POV“I have a record of Matt confessing to Marissa,” Prissy flaunted like she had just gotten a bag she’d been eyeing.What?! Matt confessed to Marissa?How? When?“Really, that is cute…,” Stella exclaimed, probably happy because Marissa was almost out of her way.“Right, Alaric?” Stella asked me. I smiled.“Yeah.”I knew Stella was waiting for my reaction, but I was waiting to hear the voice recording of Matt and Marissa.“Hugh. Cute, but that is none of my problem. I am about to use it to destroy Marissa. Imagine Lucien’s reaction when I play the voice note… Marissa will be thrown out of the company…,” Prissy said happily, like a maniac.“Can I listen?” Stella asked, looking at me.“I will go change upstairs…,” I said, clearing my throat.Should I warn Marissa?If Prissy played that voice recording of Matt and Marissa to Lucien, it would ruin their relationship, which means I wouldn’t need to expose that Lucien was cheating on Marissa.I walked into Nova’s room. She wasn’t

Marissa POV“Lucien…,”I looked at the expression on his face. His face was blank, but with something different… I knew that look.“What is wrong?” I asked.“Nothing much… I need Giuseppe’s help in finding some cartel minions,” he said. I nodded.I went to sit down, and Lucien disappeared into the back of the restaurant. Ayesha walked up to me with a menu.“What are you going to have?” she asked as she handed me the menu.I scanned through everything, and it all looked delicious.“Can I have everything?… I’m joking. I will have this one,” I said. She smiled.“This one is on the house,” she said.“I should pay,”.“Next time you come then,” Ayesha smiled.She disappeared into the kitchen and returned later with the food.She placed it in front of me. “Wow, it looks delicious!”“Thanks,”“I will leave you to eat and go check on Giuseppe and Lucien,” she said.I nodded and smiled as I swallowed. It was delicious.Three men walked in. They looked like a gang, but not Giuseppe’s. Maybe they
