Destined for you; The billionaire's false wife. Chapter 73
**JEFFREY****A few weeks earlier**I leaned back in the swivel chair in my office.I had spoken to Chloe earlier and she said that she was having lunch with Audrey. I've missed her, maybe I could take her out for dinner after her lunch with Audrey.Cilia knocked on my door and then walked in when I responded. “Sir should I bring those documents you asked for now?” she asked, politely. “No, I'll go through them tomorrow,” I replied and then she left.I smiled. I should clear up my schedule and then call her around 3pm so she could get ready for dinner.It was 3pm now and I'd called her a couple of times, but she didn't pick. I called the house to know if she was back already and probably decided to take a nap, but the security guards informed me that she was yet to return. I called Audrey too, she didn't pick up. I hope Audrey didn't take her elsewhere because that's very typical of Audrey.I loosened my tie and leaned back in my chair, it was 5pm already. I'd left her a string o

**JEFFREY**I hung up on the phone, and Richard sent me a text immediately; it was Eric's address. Two of the guards followed as George drove to the address. I'd beaten Eric up myself, I didn't want anybody doing that for me, George had stopped me before all his bones were broken.I needed that to feel better, he had slept with my Chloe and even had the guts to send me pictures.I had him delete the naked pictures of Chloe. Nobody was going to have that type of pictures of my wife on their phone.**CHLOE**My legs kept pushing my body forward. I'd gotten to the park now, and my body sank into a bench.*He starts to get angry easily and says it's because of something you did*Everything flashed before me… It was true… He kept blaming his attitude on me. Always trying to insinuate that I had something to do with Eric.He'd known about Eric, even dropped me off at lunch and then picked me up.So why would he suddenly start thinking that I had something to do with Eric?*When a man st

**JEFFREY**I had waited a while for her to come out of the shower. Maybe we could talk.Maybe she'll admit her relationship with Eric and promise she'll not see him anymore... but she didn't. She took her time in the shower; she seemed fine. Throwing my jacket on, I headed downstairs and got into the car. “What about Mrs. Blakes?” George stuttered.I clenched my jaw and leaned back in the chair.I had wanted to take her here to my private house. Maybe we could spend time alone and have a talk here. Just maybe...I pulled out a cigarette and then lit it. I took a deep drag and then exhaled slowly. “Just drive,” I murmured to George.I've been smoking a lot lately; I feel so lonely and depressed. And then George revved the engine to life and drove off. **CHLOE**I sank into my bed, tears streaming down my cheeks. My heart ached.Images of his cold stare flashed through my mind, making goosebumps erupt all over my skin. I reached for my blanket and wrapped it around me, my tears

**CHLOE**My phone slipped off my fingers. Jeffrey…I slumped back into bed and erupted in tears. The sound of my crying filled the room.*I've made the arrangements. George will bring you to the courthouse on the…Wait….Fourth? That's tomorrow?!We are getting divorced tomorrow? So soon? I tossed and kicked my legs in frustration. He just couldn't wait… I'd been that much of a bother? My chest ached. It seemed like my whole world was falling apart. Why?? But he said he loved me, and he'd always be by my side.My pillowcase was already soaked from crying all day; it's been an incredibly rough couple of weeks. Or was there someone else? And he couldn't wait to get it over with me? “Love Story” by Taylor Swift jolted me out of sleep the next morning. I fumbled on the next stand for the alarm and then put it off. Sitting up slowly, I rubbed my heavy eyes with the back of my palm.I still needed more sleep; I didn't feel like getting out of bed. I pushed myself up and headed to t

**JEFFREY**Richard swerved to a halt in the middle of the road and then turned to look at me. “Laura?” He whispered, utterly stunned.I remained silent.“You guessed right!” She cooed. “It's been so long; didn't you miss me?”I clenched my fists, boiling anger coursing through me. She must be crazy."Well, I heard you're divorced now?”she continued. “Finally,” she sighed. “At least you can…”“Laura…” I interrupted with gritted teeth. “You're lucky that I didn't look for you and allowed you to go scot-free. Do not…”Squeezing my eyes shut, I took a breather. “Don’t you dare call me again,” I muttered, trying to keep my voice low and calm, and then hung up.I scoffed… The audacity.“What did she want?” Richard asked, surprised.“Nothing,” I breathed, taking another drag of my cigarette.And then Richard stared at me intently for a while before starting the car.**CHLOE**I walked to the entrance, my head glued to the floor, when I felt Lily's warm embrace.All the emotions I'd bottled

**CHLOE**The receptionist had directed me to the manager’s office for guidance.“Good day, sir,” I greeted as soon as I walked in.“Good day to you too. And welcome,” he replied, shifting his gaze from the laptop to me. He seemed to be in his forties.“There are two teams in the budgeting department,” he continued. “You've been assigned to team B, and your team leader is Sarah.”“Okay, sir.”“I will show you the budgeting office,” he said, standing up. “I really hope you do well,” he added before closing his laptop.“Thank you; I'll definitely put in my best,” I replied gratefully and followed him out of the office. “That's a good attitude,” he pointed out as his finger pressed on the third floor in the elevator. “The budgeting office is that door by right,” he gestured as soon as we stepped out of the elevator. “Thank you, sir.” And with that, I walked toward the door. Taking a deep breath, I pushed it open.Walking into the big office meant for team B, I looked around and notic

**CHLOE**The smile on my face wiped off when my eyes caught Eric's clad in a navy blue suit.“Hey Chloe,” he said, waving with a nervous smile.My feet stilled, and I immediately turned back to go when I felt his hands on my arm.“I'm still blocked on your list; that's when I couldn't call before coming,” he muttered.I turned around and faced him. “It means I still don't want to talk to you,” I retorted, extending the bouquet back to him.“Please, I’d like you to have it,” he said.“Take it,” I insisted, my tone firm. And then he reluctantly collected it.I know that my divorce with Jeffrey wasn't exactly his fault.Things ended because Jeffrey was tired and didn't have the balls to just say so. Still, I can't help but feel that Eric was partly responsible.I folded my arm around my chest. “And how did you know that I work here?”“Well… I…” He stuttered. “I just happened to know your boss.”I scoffed internally. He just happens to know the bosses everywhere.“That doesn't explain ho

**ERIC**“You just went to see Chloe?” He said. It sounded more like a statement than a question.“Have you been following me?” I asked jokingly. “Well, yes, I'm just coming from her workplace,” I confirmed.“Stop going to see her,” he blurted out, his tone sharp.I chuckled, confused. “What do you mean?”“She's already separated from the monster who was treating her badly, so you can let her be now,” Robert declared.I paused, trying to take in what Robert was trying to say. My goal wasn't just to separate her and Jeffrey; I wanted her for myself.He had contacted me, saying he knew that I really loved Chloe and that we'd lost contact after school.“We didn't agree that I'd stop seeing her once she's divorced,” I reminded him. “I said I loved her, and you said you'd help me to be with the woman of my dreams.”Somehow, he knew that we used to be very close back then. He had said that Chloe wasn't happy in her marriage and that I should help her out.I knew she wouldn't just leave Jeff
