Mr billionaire's regret chasing his irresistible wife by Gabby Emmanuel

She was his wife.

(ARIELLE'S POV)

"Friends?" I taunted him. "Best friends? Just like you and Sofia?

He didn't respond, so I continued. "I have enough friends. I do not need more."

He nodded and rose to his feet. "I'll see you some other time.

I wanted to scoff and tell him, "You wish," but I restrained myself. Instead, I nodded curtly and followed him to the door. He hesitated for a moment, sparing me a glance before walking out.

As soon as the door shut, the dam broke. I walked over to the couch and collapsed onto it, burying my face in my palms. Reality finally dawned on me. I was truly divorced from Jared. I was not hallucinating, it was real.

I didn't realize how long I sat there sobbing, but the door going open alerted me that Ashley was home. I tried to bolt to hide my swollen face, but it was too late; she saw me.

"Are you all right? My goodness, have you been crying?" She shrieked, rushing to me.

I tried to hide my face by looking away, but she forcefully turned it to face her. "What happened to you?"

Deciding hiding or lying was pointless, I opted to tell her the truth. "Jared was here-"

"Did he hurt you? I swear, I would kill him-"

"No," I shook my head. "He was here to sign the divorce papers."

"What?" Arielle exclaimed. And then she regained herself. "I'm sorry for my outburst; it's just that I was surprised since a few days ago, he refused to sign the papers. I'm just wondering what changed his mind." "I don't know. My marriage is indeed over. I finally lost to Sofia," I cried.
