The Affair That Destroyed Him And Freed Me Novels & Stories

Afraid. Jovi looked at her. Then at her father. Then she let the tears come. She cried. Not the silent, controlled tears she had shed in the penthouse. Loud, ugly sobs. Her shoulders shook. Her mother reached for her hand. She did not pull away. "Jovi, darling, please—" "He is having an affair," Jovi sobbed. "With her. With my best friend. With Nerissa." Her father's jaw tightened. "We do not know that. The video—"

I looked out at the city, at the buildings and the streets and the people going about their lives, and I thought about everything I had lost and everything I had gained. "He had an affair for two years and got another woman pregnant. And when I finally walked away, when I finally chose myself, he tried to destroy me. He leaked a story about the hardest decision I have ever made. He made the world believe that I was a monster. A killer. A woman who murdered her own child because it was inconvenient." I turned around and faced them. Some of the executives looked uncomfortable. Others looked sympathetic. Edgar's face was unreadable.

"After you were born, she changed. She withdrew from everyone. And then, one day… she was gone." "The truth!" I slammed my hands on the desk, rattling everything on it. "That is the truth!" he barked back, his own voice cracking under the weight of it all. But it wasn’t enough. I knew there was more. And he knew I wouldn’t stop until I had it. I took a step back, disgust twisting in my gut as I watched him crumble before me. And then, finally, he broke. "I had an affair," he muttered, barely more than a whisper.

“I’m tired of this. Tired of you asking me like I haven’t already thought it through.” “I just want to make sure you’re not walking back into something that will destroy you all over again.” I almost laughed, but the sound caught in my throat and twisted into something bitter. “Destroy me? Frederick, I was destroyed years ago. That house, where everything started, the center, what they did to me there, how they left me to die. And you... you helped me crawl out of it. I’ll never forget that. Never.” My voice cracked, but I pushed on. “But there are places in my life where you don’t have liberty. This is one of them.”

Each revelation brought me closer to the heart of the truth, but it also tore at the fragile threads that held our relationship together. As the pieces fell into place, a shocking revelation emerged. The affair was not born out of love or desire, but rather a calculated scheme fueled by greed and betrayal. Alex had been manipulated, coerced into a web of deceit orchestrated by someone we both knew all too well. The person I had once considered a friend had turned out to be the puppet master, pulling the strings from behind the scenes.

I asked getting angry "You can call it so ma'am" he said smiling. "Am fine so there's no need to check on me" I shoot at him harshly. I slammed the door in his face before he could say another word and head up to my room very angry. Carlos is being very insecure since that accident, I got in bed with Cassie and covered her up. didn't bother to take her to her room since she's already sleeping and I need the company. I kissed her forehead and didn't realized when I fell asleep.

They dragged Colin down and kicked him while he was on the floor. When it started to look like they might actually kill him, I stepped in and stopped it. I even called an ambulance for him. Colin was diagnosed with severe injuries. One of his legs was broken. Before he was even discharged from the hospital, I filed for divorce. The scandal spread fast. Colin had no defense. The house and the savings went to me. All he had left was a used car. He was fired for misconduct and quietly blacklisted in the industry. That was the last time I saw him.

Something ugly. Then he masked it. “You were unstable,” he said. “I was trying to control the situation.” “You were trying to control me,” I shot back. “And now you’re mad because someone else finally did what you never expected and protected me.” He scoffed. “Protected you? He married you for publicity. You think a man like Allen does anything without profit?” “Even if he did,” I said calmly, “it’s still more care than you ever showed me.” His lips curled. “So you sold yourself to another man and you’re calling it freedom now?”

I wasn't the best BT has, and I couldn't fathom much why he was thinking with such vigor. But I knew I had ruined whatever last shot it was that I had at having a fun night, and maybe he didn't believe my words. Perhaps he thought I had been caught having an affair by trying to save through his spite; either way, I wouldn't believe me either, but now that things had ended this way, I had told the truth, and my mind was free. I was relieved instantly. He highlighted from the car and helped with my door while we both walked in silence towards the main entrance of the hall.

This is bad and who is going to help me, I turned to the wide open door thinking if I can make a run for it unfortunately he trailed my gaze and kick the door close with his foot. Great a fucking predator and I'm his prey, "What exactly do you want?" I wanted to stall enough time because I know Tristan is on his way back, "I told you I want you, You can't married to my cousin then we can't be together or do you want to be having an affair outside your marriage?" He kept coming closer and I hated the fact that I'm close to the wall now if I'm trapped then it's the end.
