Chapter 2
Brandon bee-lined home.
It was his first time ducking out of work to head back
His pad, spick and span, no longer had any traces of Sophia, except for that divorce agreement on the coffee table, all mussed up by the breeze.
Brandon reached for it
The agreement was straightforward. Sophia didn’t want a thing. What was hers before the marriage stayed hers after
Her signature was already on the dotted line
Her handwriting was gorgeous, all flowy and elegant.
Brandon zoned out staring at the signature on the divorce papers.
No clue how much time had passed when the rustling sound of the door opening snapped him back to reality
Brandon whipped his head toward the entrance.
Patricia had just stepped in, and his sudden glance startled her big time
“What’s up?” she asked, puzzled, clearly noticing the flicker of hope on Brandon’s face slowly fade into dead calm.
“Nothing much, he replied coolly. “What brings you here?”
“I was worried Sophia might be bored stiff at home alone, just dropped by to keep her company, Patricia said with a smile, moving towards him, “What’s with the sudden home run today? Something up with Sophia?”
As she spoke, her brows furrowed with concern, her head turning towards the room.
“She’s fine, Brandon said, looking at her, “Do you drop by often?”
“Not really, just now and then.”
Patricia’s face was painted with awkward embarrassment, and upon finishing her sentence, she saw Brandon’s brow furrow
She quickly changed the subject to the papers in Brandon’s hand “What’s that?”
Reaching to grab them, but before her fingertips could touch the documents, Brandon pressed them down first.
“It’s nothing. Brandon said, looking at Patricia, “No need for you to come over if there’s no issue. Sophia’s got her work. cut out for her. We’ll come visit you when we get the chance.”
“She, Patricia began, almost blurting out “What work could she possibly have?” but quickly bit her tongue, “Alright then.
She couldn’t help but remind Brandon, Sophia’s been recuperating for over a year and still no baby bump. I hope she hasn’t got some lingering issues. Have her get checked at the hospital when she can. I wouldn’t want troubles with having kids later.
Brandon said. “It’s the kid I didn’t want.”
Patricia looked at him, baffled
Brandon issued the boot. “You better head back, and don’t come around unless it’s necessary.”
Patricia’s mouth hung open, wanting to protest, but ultimately, she shut it under Brandon’s icy stare, and turned to leave.
Brandon watched the door close, glanced around the house now devoid of Suphia’s presence, heaved a long sigh, picked up his phone, and dialed his assistant Kent. “Kent, set up a meeting with the lawyer, gotta sort out this divorce
Huh? Kent was taken aback. Wasn’t it just yesterday he’d sent Sophia over? They didn’t seem to be at odds.
