The Divorced Heiress by Arianapeige

Chapter 4

Amanda dragged her suitcase along the road pavement as she glanced at the mansions. She knew that it was quite a distance to the city but she had nothing on her that she could hail a taxi. She had thought that her prayers had been answered when she got married to Damien Scott but it seemed that life was playing a certain game with her. Sighing in desperation, she walked hurriedly since it was already evening.

She walked for two hours before arriving in front of a hotel. Without even looking at the name, she got in and sat in the nearby booth.

“Okay,” the waitress said as she scrambled on her small notepad before walking away.

“What?”

“Why?”

“How?”

Amanda found herself being bombarded with a lot of questions when she picked up the call, she couldn’t help but be helpless.

“It’s a long story,” Amanda answered since she didn’t know where to start when she had always lied to the lady that she was having the happiest moments

of her life.

“Where are you now?” Elsa asked, desperate and full of worry.

“Honestly, I don’t know. I walked two hours from the Scott’s mansion and
