30 Days to leave my CEO husband のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

Nathan wasn't going to change, I sadly concluded.Maybe it was time I started to consider a divorce.One moment he acts like I'm a ghost — non-existent. The second, he tries to kill me and the next he is apologizing while asking for a favour and the cycle continues like that.Since there were no children, maybe it was best I leave.Ever since Nathan left for work, I had been soliloquizing as I went through my laptop, scanning for vacancies and putting in applications where necessary, only stopping to sort out his inventory documents. No matter how I tried, I couldn't get over all he said.I was about to close my system when I remembered the Xzan link I had forwarded from Nathan early that morning.Not wasting time, I clicked the link and started the application process.It was a long process. I had to start by confirming that I was not a robot to putting my personal documents for review.When I passed that stage, I submitted my CV and attached past work experience as requested.And th

The next morning, I took up Nathan's breakfast to his study, where he was busy proofreading documents and putting his signatures on them.He brought his laptop closer, making space for me to drop his meal."Nathan," I called softly, "I need to discuss something with you.""I'm listening," he said, without lifting his head from his documents."I want a divorce," I blurted."Then get it. How much do you need?""Nathan?!""I'm listening," he said, looking at me. "Take what you need from the account.""I'm not buying anything.""Then, what?""I want a divorce."I knew when my words sank in.His eyes widened, his gaze unmoving. He opened his mouth, closed it and opened it again."You're joking.""I'm not," I said firmly. "I want out of this marriage.Nathan threw back his head and laughed. "Stop already, Ariella. We both know you can't survive without me. Where would you even live? Heck, can you even afford a lawyer?"I swallowed, he wasn't lying. "That's why I'm asking that we solve this

 "What are you doing," Nathan slurred. My breath came out in a whoosh, he was still sleepy."You fell asleep," I began softly. "Let me help you gather your things so they don't get ruined." Nathan stared silently at me. His gaze returned to the paper tight in my grasp and he nodded.Relieved, I quickly gathered the other documents and set them aside.I turned to leave when I discovered he was still holding me tight. . "Jen.. jennifer." My heart cracked. "I'm not..." He let go of me, his head lulling to the side. I exhaled gruffly. He was finally fast asleep. Without wasting time, I took the successfully signed copy of my divorce paper upstairs, locking it safely in my box.  *****************The bad effect of the sleeping meds I gave to Nathan was that he slept for a long time and woke

I give it to her, the stylist was good at her job.In exactly twenty minutes, she had glammed me up in a regal black dress adorned with pearls. She then complemented it with a stiletto and purse that matched the colour of Nathan's tux.With a simple makeup that highlighted my features I was good to go.Nathan's Bentley was already running by the time I got into the car. Without a glance at me, he sped off to the city's biggest event center. It was already crawling with cars when we arrived.Nathan was immediately led to a reserved parking lot. He got down first and as he always did when we are out together, he walked around to open the car door while I stepped out with as much poise as I could muster.I still couldn't shake off the queasy feeling since I left Linda's.I watched Nathan's eye flare up with something that looked like surprise when he finally took a good look at me. His gaze lingered just before he turned away.I didn't bat an eyelid when he took my hand and led me into t
