All Chapters of No More You: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Marilyn was simmering. After a while, she got up from the couch angrily. If that bastard really wants to divorce Shantal because of Natalie, then he should go with her. Shantal is perfect; she shouldn't be a substitute.Even if they divorced, Natalie wouldn't be able to marry into the family.Ullysis and Shantal returned to Winswood House."Mr. Ray Ford, you're back. What's wrong with Mrs. Ray Ford?"Harver looked at Ullysis's grim face when he came in. He was carrying Shantal in his arms. Harver was shocked to see the bloodstained bandage tying her foot."She's drunk. Make her a cup of tea for her hangover."Then, he quickly carried Shantal upstairs.As he put Shantal to bed, she suddenly sat up. She grabbed Ullysis's armand looked at him, her eyes twinkling.Marilyn, I've had a great idea. It'll definitely make that bastard angry, she said."That bastard?"Ullysis narrowed his eyes and focused on Shantal's excited face.When Shantal's lips approached his ear, her unique fragrance,

“If you didn’t fall in love with me,” Shantal sneered, “why insist on sleeping with me?”A mocking smile curled on her lips.Ullysis's patience finally snapped. “Fall in love with you?” He let out a cold laugh. “Shantal, you’re not funny. You’re like some crazy joker, good for entertainment, nothing more.”Her heart sank.Joker.So that’s what she was to him, after over a year of marriage, a clown for his amusement. No wonder, in her last life, after the car accident, he hadn’t even bothered to ask a question. He just...picked up her corpse.Ullysis didn’t notice the shift in her expression. He assumed she was about to snap back. Just as he opened his mouth, Shantal chuckled.“Oh, so you didn’t love me. You were just in heat? Must be that time of year, huh? Guess you get horny anytime, anywhere.”Ullysis’s face darkened with rage. Her sharp tongue… She was proving exactly what that meant.“Shantal Harver, you, ” He stopped, silenced by the ping of his phone.Suppressing his anger, Ull

Roy froze mid-sentence.For a moment, he thought he’d misheard.“You’re… getting a divorce?” His voice cracked with disbelief.Shantal, the same woman who once chased after Ullysis Ray Ford like he hung the moon, now talking about divorce as casually as ordering coffee?Impossible.But here she was , calm, steady, not a trace of hesitation.“Don’t mention me and him together ever again,” she added, fastening her seatbelt. Her tone was light, but her eyes… her eyes were ice.Roy’s fingers tightened on the steering wheel.The Shantal Harver I know… obsessed with that man for years… suddenly giving up?“If you don’t mind me asking…” Roy tried carefully, “what made you finally decide that?”Shantal turned to him, a faint, unreadable smile curving her lips.Instead of answering, she tilted her head.“Don’t talk nonsense. Just drive.”Roy shut his mouth.Marilyn had warned him before, when Shantal made up her mind, not even an earthquake could shake her.But the pit in his stomach didn’t g

Roy smiled faintly at Shantal’s words, but she quickly dismissed him, her voice calm and distant.“We’re not living in some romantic movie, Roy. I don’t have feelings for you.”Her tone wasn’t cruel , just… honest.Roy didn’t take it to heart. He already knew.But that didn’t stop him from worrying.What bothered him more was the ridiculous game between Shantal and Ullysis.Shantal found it laughable that now , only now , Ullysis didn’t want to let her go.When I was desperate for him, begging for a little warmth… he turned his back.And now that she’d finally signed the divorce papers?Now he suddenly cared?She scoffed under her breath.His persistence, his sudden jealousy , it was all a joke.Shantal turned her gaze away from Roy and quietly ate her noodles.Besides, she thought bitterly, his ex-girlfriend is back now. I was always just a substitute.She had accepted that fact. She was his second choice , if there was ever a choice at all.Roy’s eyes stayed on her, quietly obs

Natalie clenched her fists and forced a tight smile to hide her trembling lips. But her eyes betrayed her, wide, uncertain, burning with quiet frustration.“So… you chose her,” she said softly. Her voice cracked halfway.Her gaze moved to Shantal, who stood calm as ever, as if none of this touched her. The sight only deepened the ache in Natalie’s chest.Ullysis did not answer at once. His jaw tightened, his eyes cold and unreadable as they held on to Natalie’s face. His silence was louder than words.Simon watched with his arms crossed, amused, like a spectator enjoying justice at last.Natalie drew a shaky breath and stepped closer. Pride and desperation fought within her.“Ullysis… are you saying… you never loved me? All those years meant nothing?”For a moment, something flickered in Ullysis’s eyes, guilt, perhaps regret, but it vanished as quickly as it came.“I’m saying…” His voice was low, steady, final. “…you’re the one who walked away.”The words struck like a slap.
