Starting With A Divorce Novel Novels & Stories

I started the conversation. I chose not to head straight to the point, just to ensure a smooth conversation. I wanted to be certain that Dante paid full attention, to avoid making it seem as though I was speaking to myself alone. “Get on with it immediately. I am all ears,” he consented. “I am filing for divorce. Olivia and I have decided to go our separate ways,” I unleashed the bombshell that forced Dante to leave his seated position. “What did you just say? This must be a prank, isn't it? Wait a minute! What has this got to do with Adrian?”

Since that intimate night we shared before marriage, this is our first kiss. Three years… All those years in marriage, he doesn’t even go near me like I have a virus. And now that we are undergoing divorce, he’s suddenly doing all this? My heart clenches, as if I'm being played. Tears sting my eyes as more anger fuels me. Finding strength, I shove him hard and break free from his touch. Breathing heavily, I glare at him and push his hand that wants to pull me back. “Don’t touch me!” His chest moves as heavily as mine from his ragged breathing, and he looks at me with confusion and a hint of frustration. “Why are you acting like this? You’re still mine, Lillian.”

She still hadn’t found the courage to confront Anna about that unexpected meeting with Erick at the restaurant. Anna’s lips curved into a small, knowing smile. “Well… let’s just say I’m giving myself a little makeover to celebrate my divorce from Andy.” Vivian blinked. “You… sent Andy a divorce?” Anna nodded without hesitation. “First thing I did when I left work.” “Wow.” Vivian let out a short, surprised laugh. Anna was serious. Dead serious. She wasn’t just talking about ending her marriage—she was already dismantling it. “I met with my attorney yesterday,” Anna continued. “By now, the documents should be sitting right on Andy’s desk.”

Then he slid a brown envelope across the desk toward me. My eyes dropped to it and my stomach turned to nuts The words on the front were like nails in my chest. Breathing suddenly felt like something I had to remember how to do. Still, I kept my face calm. “I want a divorce, Aria,” he said. And just like that, everything inside me broke further….quietly. “What?” I asked, even though I’d heard him clearly the first time. “I want a divorce,” he repeated, like he was twisting the knife a little deeper.

It was hard, but I did it. I was thinking too much about this, this was the woman I had married. We had a spark once; it should be easy to find the spark again. I pulled her closer to me, my lips claiming hers as I silenced her. She returned the kiss, her hand wrapped around my neck, as she moaned against my lips. “Do you think we should leave now?” I asked against her lips. “It would be crazy not to,” she smiled. *** My hands moved in frenzy, tugging the buttons off, my eyes not leaving her body as she lay on the bed. “You look amazing Diane,” I whispered, kissing my way up her thighs.

AUTHORS POV SYDNEY'S heart thudded in her chest at Gavin's words. She wasn't sure she heard him right. Tears immediately began running down her cheeks. Gavin's eyes softened, he had no choice. “I said I was sorry.” She hoped it was just mirth. Gavin looked away.”The divorce papers will be ready tomorrow. I'll mail it to your office, you'll probably be busy with work to care.” How could he say that? She loved him, but she wasn't sure he felt the same. Was Avery right?

I left it behind with the divorce agreement back in the house. During the toasts, Nova clung to her husband's arm and hoped he would learn from Ian. She called Ian a devoted, loving husband who put his family first. I shook my head and replied, "We're divorced now." Shocked, Nova asked, "Why?" I said, "That's because…" "What the hell are you doing, Evelyn?" Ian suddenly appeared behind me, grabbing my arm and pulling me around to face him. I was surprised at his sudden appearance, but his next words surprised me even more. "Francesca is like a sister to me—everyone knows that. Must you embarrass her at an event like this?

Then, like bullets, his lethal words came blasting from his mouth. "But can I have a cup of coffee first?" I asked, hoping to slow his pace. "Can it wait? This is important. Tameka, I want a Divorce. It's been three years. I'm tired of this sexless and loveless marriage. But more importantly than that, Lizzy is very ill, and her only wish is to be married before she leaves this earth."
