Chapter 56
Oliver returned to the house with Grandpa Go, he had been advised to rest in the hospital that night but the old man insisted on coming back, he could not believe the fact that the lady he had trusted so much had made a fool out of him, now all he wanted was to throw her out of the house.
They walked in to meet Nora in the sitting room; she saw them and scoffed then turned back to the TV.
“Grandpa, let me take you to your room,” Oliver offered.
“No, I want to have a word with this shameless woman,” he replied.
“Hey, watch your tongue old man, I am not your worthless ex daughter in law,” she retorted and scoffed.
“Oh yes, but you would be in a few minutes,” Oliver said plainly.
“What are you talking about?” she queried.
“Here, divorce papers, I already had them prepared and kept ready a long time ago,” he said with a cunning smile.
“What? Are you nuts? So you really think you can get rid of me so easily? I am not that dumb, naïve lady you married and got rid of, I won’t sign those papers unless you give me seventy percent share of all you own, just like you did with your first wife,” she smirked.
“No you cheap lady, you won’t get a dime from us. What do you think of yourself? You would sign these papers right now and leave this building tonight, I don’t care where you have to go,” Grandpa Gomez yelled.
“Calm down Grandpa, leave that to me,” Oliver said softly.
“You and your old man can try as hard as you want, but you are not getting rid of me without giving what I asked for. If you try to throw me out of here, I would call the cops and drag you two to court for physical abuse.” She threatened.
“Did you just say court?” Oliver asked with a smirk.
“Yes, I would also report to the most powerful women’s rights NGO, I would tell them that you want to mistreat me because I don’t have money or a rich family to support me.”
“That sounds scary, but I guess you would also have to explain to the NGO as well as the court why you cheated on your husband with another man on your matrimonial bed.” Oliver smiled.
“You think you can scare me with that? Trust me, they won’t believe a word you said, I would tell them that you both are trying to frame me up for something I had not done just to get rid of me, I will make everyone think of you as the bad guy who had gotten rid of his first wife when he was done with her and is about doing the same thing to his second, I would tell them you beat me up and treat every women like a rag doll, believe me Oliver, when I am done with you, that would be the end of your iconic reputation in this city.” She scorned.
“Interesting, but none of that is going to happen, not when I have a record of your confession,” Oliver said and raised his phone up.
Nora’s eyes widened as shock paralyzed her; she could not believe she had been fooled. He was recording her statement
“What? No, they won’t believe you, that is not enough evidence to put me away, you cannot do this to me,” she said with fear flickering in her eyes.
“Oh Nora dear, it is more than enough evidence, but if that is not enough, then I think a confession from your lover would be an extra leverage.” Grandpa Gomez chuckled.
“What? You are never going to find Williams, and even if you do, he would never testify against me, he loves me,” she stated in certainty.
“Is that so?” Oliver smirked. “Let us see.” He clapped his hand twice and to Nora’s surprise, Williams walked into the sitting room.
“What? Willy? I asked you to leave the city for a few days, what are you still doing here?” she queried. Her heart was racing in fear; this was not heading in a good direction for her.
“You see Nora dear, the CCTV camera in the front caught your lover while he was leaving, although I have always known of him, so I had my contacts track him down at the bus station and bring him to me.”
“Well he is not going to say a word, right Williams?” Nora asked in fear. Williams remained silent.
“Yes Nora, he would speak against you if you decide to take this matter to court, I mean… Why won’t he? We have different video clips of you two having your lovely affairs. I bet you didn’t know that there was a camera in that room, I planted it on the day I got married to you because I knew you would do something silly that I could use to throw you out of here; apart from that, I also offered your lover a large sum of money so he is more than willing to testify against you,” Oliver explained and chuckled.
Nora was left in shock, she had thought she had everything in control but her whole plan had backfired, the tables had turned on her.
“No Williams, you… you cannot do this to me,” she said and rushed to him, dragging him by his collar.
“I am sorry Nora, I chose what is best for my life, moreover I never really loved you, I saw this as an opportunity to have free sex with this beautiful lady and still get money from her, I would be a fool to say no, wouldn’t I?” he smirked.
Before he could see it coming, Nora sent a tight slap to his face and he stumbled down. “Fool!! Betrayer! How could you do this to me?” she yelled and cried.
“Okay okay, as much as I love to watch this drama, I have had a long day and I want to rest. If you don’t mind, please sign these papers and get out of my house, unless you still want to call the cops then you can as well go ahead,” Oliver said nonchalantly and yawned.
Nora fell on his feet immediately, “Please Oliver… don’t do this to me, I really love you and I don’t know anywhere else to go,” she pleaded.
“You are such a drama Queen, please let go of my feet, if you have been keeping records, you would have known that your husband no longer feels any emotions, which is also your fault,” Oliver said and scoffed.
She crawled over to Grandpa Gomez’s feet and fell on them, shedding crocodile tears, or maybe they were real ones.
“Please Grandpa, I am really sorry Grandpa, I am so sorry, please forgive me,” she pleaded.
“Let go of me you ungrateful woman, I picked you up from the streets, your family had gone bankrupt and I wanted to give you a good life because of the relationship I shared with your grandfather, did I ever wrong you in any way Nora? So tell me why you did this, tell me why you had to cheat on your husband?” Grandpa Go queried.
“What did you expect me to do,” Nora snapped and stood up. “Your so-called grandson had married me here just for the sake of it, he does not even care to carry out his responsibilities as a husband, it’s been one whole year and he never cared to touch me for once. What did you expect a woman with desires to do, keep waiting? Tell me grandpa?” she yelled.
“Oh really? I agree that I refused to get intimate with you, but I know your affair with Williams started just three months after our marriage, wasn’t that too soon to jump into a sexual relationship with another man?
Apart from that, what about the terrible things you had done in the past? Like the phone call with your friend on our wedding night, telling her that you had just won a jackpot, that the moment you get an opportunity, you would trick me into signing my properties to you and take over the entire Gomez wealth.
Just so you know, I also have that on record. I had only kept quiet this long because I wanted to gather enough proof and I wanted my grandfather to see you for who you really are.” Oliver yelled.
Nora was quiet, she was confused with no idea on how to save herself. She felt like going back in time and changing everything, her life was about to be ruined.
“You know, I have always thought of Aria as the gold digger, but today I realized that I had brought the real gold digger home myself, but no worries, I will fix everything tonight… give her the papers son,” Grandpa Go instructed.
Oliver brought out the papers from his breast pocket and handed it to her, “Sign it willingly, unless you want me to call the cops and tell them of all your atrocities, including trying to steal my property,” he smiled.
Nora broke down in tears, she took the papers reluctantly and slumped onto the couch, then she took the pen in it and scribbled her signatures on all sides of the pages. After that, she flings the papers at Oliver.
He chuckled, well that was the exact way Aria had flung the papers at him, it seemed like everyone hates those papers.
“You have not heard the last of me Mr. Oliver Stark Gomez, this is not over, I promise,” she muttered spitefully.
“Oh yes it is, unless you wish to go to jail, you haven’t been to jail in America before, have you?” he smirked. Well for the first time in a long time, he felt really good.
“We shall see,” she mumbled and stormed off.
“Won’t you take your lover with you,” Grandpa Go mocked. “Come on Nora, I am sure you would need him, I mean how are you supposed to survive? You don’t have any money on you, do you?” the old man asked and they burst into laughter.
They stared at Williams and he did not need a seer to tell him that he needed to get lost. He turned around and ran off immediately.
“I am glad I finally got rid of her,” Oliver said solemnly and sighed. “And I think we should send her belongings to her, she is certainly going to need them.”
“Yes that is right, I mean she might have to sell a few pieces of jewelry to get her transport fare or something,” Grandpa Go joked and they laughed.
“I am really sorry Oliver, sorry that I had to make you go through this. Now please let us get your wife back,” he pleaded.
Oliver smiled softly, “No Grandpa, I understand that I treated Arianna badly, but it was her choice to leave, so let her go… if she really loves me, and she is really meant to be mine, then she would come back when the time is right, but I would not go looking for her, not at all.” He stated in finality.
