Revenge After Divorce by Black Rose

NICK

“Welcome to the corporate business annual gala, my names Tom, and I will be your host this evening. Without wasting anymore of your time. I would like to call to the stage to open for us. New Village’s favourite billionaire. He needs no introduction as many of you already know him some of you have had the pleasure of doing business with him and some know him through his good deeds around the city. Ladies and gentlemen. Let us put our hands together and welcome to the stage, Nick Jones of Jones Enterprises.”

The room erupted in applause; I was annoyed in a second, I didn’t need to be there, but I didn’t attend the past two years and Sandra insisted we come to this one. I should have been at the office facilitating the search for my

son.

As I sat there watching people coming into the gala, my mind was on my parents, wondering how their talk went with Olivia. Also, I was curious to learn about what they knew about her that I didn’t. I took my time getting up on that stage after Tom called me.

Just as I was about to open my mouth and speak. The door was banged loudly making me look to see who that was. Everyone in the room seemed to be curious as well. What I didn’t expect was the see my wife standing there looking like an angel.

No, she looked like royalty, her dress, how it fitted her, she looked like a model in a magazine. Someone ordinary people could just look at and admire from those pages. She was like a dream, and I found my mouth getting dry.

I watched as Ethan offered her his arm and she took it. My anger rose from the pit of my stomach, it was caused by jealousy, I wanted to be the one who’s arm she took. The one leading her to the table and the one looking into those beautiful eyes of hers.

I hated that everyone was looking at her, had their eyes on her undressing her and some admiring her. I cleared my throat loudly into the mic reminding them that I was still there and that was my wife they were staring at.
