Alle Kapitel von Doctor, Please Be My Wife Again: Kapitel 1 – Kapitel 10

(Aliana's POV)After a long, intimate night, I slowly opened my eyes at the faint sound of movement, only to find the other side of the bed empty. The man who had shared my bed was already up… as usual.I pushed myself up slightly, hugging the blanket to my chest, and looked across the room. My underwear was still hanging where he had thrown it last night, and our clothes were scattered all over the floor.Then my breath caught when my eyes finally landed on him. Delvin Barrington. He was standing near the dresser, already dressed in a white shirt and blue pants. His back was turned to me as he calmly buttoned his shirt.He was my husband of four years.But not once in those four years had I woken up in his arms. Every morning, he was either getting ready for work or already gone before I opened my eyes.“Good morning, Delvin,” I greeted softly, my voice still heavy with sleep.“Hm,” he responded with a short hum, without even looking at me.“Are you… leaving for work?” I asked quietl

(Aliana's POV)I slowed my steps when I reached a quieter spot, just a few paces away from the graduation hall. Away from all the staring eyes and judging glances.My tears came fast, blurring my vision. My heart thumped violently in my chest, like a bomb ready to explode.I couldn’t tell what hurt the most... was it that Delvin, the man I called my husband, had gone to celebrate with another woman after turning down my invitation, saying he was busy? Or was it that he had brought her here, right in front of me, just to humiliate me?The mocking smile on Belicia’s face, as she held up the present, burned into my mind, tormenting me with every breath. And worse, no one seemed to notice it. No one seemed to see the mockery in her tone and actions.I stood by the swimming pool, staring at the calm, still water. It looked peaceful, but inside me, my heart felt like it was on fire.“Well, if it isn’t the attention-seeking, pathetic gold-digging slut,” a voice hissed behind me. “You really

(Aliana’s POV)I clutched the jacket tighter around myself as I walked toward the parking lot, refusing to let what had just happened break me. No. This was not the time to cry over something I had already grown used to.My steps were unsteady in my heels, and my breath shook in the cold night air, but I kept moving. I just needed to get home. At least I could change out of this wet dress before I caught a cold.But when I reached the parking lot, reality hit me.I hadn’t come with my car.For a moment, I had forgotten that my driver had called in sick earlier that day, and I had taken a cab here instead.“This seriously can’t be happening…” I muttered under my breath.I quickly pulled out my phone and called Delvin.I didn’t even know what I was expecting. Maybe he hadn’t driven far yet. Maybe, just maybe, he would turn back and give me a ride home.It was always difficult to find a cab in this quiet, remote part of the campus, and at this hour, the chances were even slimmer.His pho

(Aliana's POV) Delvin’s expression changed for a brief second. His body went still. Then I saw it... something in his eyes. Maybe fear. Maybe sadness. I couldn’t tell. But almost immediately, his face hardened again. His eyes became cold, and his chest rose and fell quickly. “What did you just say?” he whispered through gritted teeth. I swallowed hard, my heart pounding. “Let’s get a divor...” I didn’t finish. Delvin didn’t let me. He moved toward me with an anger I had never seen before. “Have you lost your mind?” he barked, his eyes burning with rage. “Who do you think you are to throw that word at me?” “I… I just thought…” I stammered, struggling to find the right words. “You don’t get to decide when this marriage ends, Aliana!” he shouted, cutting me off. “So don’t you ever say that word to me again!” I stared at him, genuinely confused about why he was angry when he should have been happy about it. Getting a divorce meant he would finally be free from this loveless marr

(Delvin's POV) Belicia reached for the bag, but I instinctively pulled my hand back before she could touch it. "It's... uhm... it's for Aliana," I said softly. "It's her graduation gift." "Oh..." she muttered, her smile slowly fading and being replaced with disappointment. But she quickly recovered and smiled warmly. "Well, then can I come home with you?" she asked, her soft eyes filled with hope. I stared at her. It wasn’t that I had a problem with it. But Aliana didn’t seem to like her. What if she tried to bully Belicia again like the last time? "Come on, it’s been a long time since I was at your house," she said when she noticed I wasn’t answering. I gave a small smile and nodded. "Okay." We got into the car, and the driver drove off immediately. A few minutes later, we arrived home. As usual, I expected Aliana to be the first to welcome me. But this time, she wasn’t. It was Grace, the housekeeper. "Welcome home, sir," she greeted politely. Then she turned to greet Be
