Chapter 138: Chapter 138

Two weeks later Life was normal again, but somewhere along the way... normal became boring bakery and Surprise hit me when I found out Alex had been secretly paying the rent for my ment since the past five months, just to give me my sense of cided to get back to it.

normal if 1 Baking didn’t bring me happiness anymore.

Alex had gone as far as appointing a chef in my bakery so that my orders were fulfilled I baked too much in the past weeks to forget about my estranged husband as if cupcakes could fill the hole he had left.

Divorce.

I was the one who had wanted it since we tied the knot, so why did the word hurt me so much?

“Mia, you know I don’t eat sugar right?” Dominic grunted. “I’m distributing your cupcakes to the hospital staff.”

“Someone eats them,” I sigh, looking around his hospital room.

“He’s not here.” Dominic nonchalantly adds.

I blink. “I wasn’t looking for Alex.”

“I never mentioned Alex.”

“Right,” I scoff, “As if I have another ‘he’ in my life.”

“If you miss him, just pickup the phone and call him,” he suggests.

“After he basically shoved me out of his house after dropping the divorce bomb and asked me to not give him a reply right now and take my time with it? No thanks.” I scoffed. “What does he think of himself any way? He literally apologised for taking my choice away, and then dropped the divorce word. That’s a choice he 1/6 41 }}}

I don’t want Sir to put me back into a COMA after he finds out you’re spending time with me”

I sigh. “He really doesn’t know I’ve been here every day?”

“Nope.” Dominic shakes his head. “And I would appreciate if you stop trying to grab his attention like this. My recovery is being dampened by your presence.”

I ignore his comment, and a grin spreads on his lips. “Grabbing his attention.” My smile reaches my ears, “That’s right, that’s exactly what I need to do for him to contact me first!”

“That is not what I meant.” Dominic emphasis on not.

“You’re the best.” I wish him a speedy recovery and jump out of the room before ! could give into his grumpy protests.

Alina dragged me into nightclubs. A lot of them.

But I hadn’t been to one in more than a year. I had forgotten how incredibly crowded they can be, and how much the scent of alcohol and sweat lingers in the air. Not to forget, drunk young adults stumbling here and there getting high in different corners.

I eye Stephen who had followed me into the club keenly.

Alex really thought he was slick, between Stephen trailing me 24/7 in an undercover getup and a black SUV parked outside my apartment all the time.

It had a sweetheart neckline and a designer tag that cut off after I shopped it from Alex card along with my new Jimmy Choo heel the pretty ones with the bows on them.

My hearted burned, but this is what he gets. That man had the audacity to take my choice away while making me his, making me fall completely in love with him and then giving me up like it was the easiest decision he made. He calls that a f**g choice?

I had been sleeping alone for the past two weeks crying tears thinking about calling him like this was my first break-up, while he was out doing mafia things. B**s*s mafia things. And I know that because Dom told me had been out of town the first week.

1 swayed to the music, letting myself loose catching Stephen shake his head to himself multiple times as he grumpily stood at the end of the dance floor, not taking his eyes off me.

Real subtle.

“Hey, gorgeous,” A man’s breath fell onto my ears, his hand snaking around my waist. “You looking for a good time?”

“No thanks,” I scowled, immediately pushing him away.

“Come on,” he insists, bringing out a joint. “It’s OC. Top quality.”

“I said,” I screamed over the music, “F**k off, d**khead, NO!”

I gasp before I could reply because I was thrown into the backseat of the cur “New driver?” I ask, poking the man’s chin while Alex gets in from the other side and he gives me a glare which makes me quietly retreat in my seat.

“What’re you doing here, you caveman?’ I gross my hands in front of my chest.

“What am I doing here?’ He repeats like it was a s**d question. What the f**k are you doing here?”

“Whatever I want to! I looked away from tim, pouting Chapter 13 “Mia!” Alex says in a warning tone.

I didn’t know Box car could do that.

My awe quickly turns into a yelp as I’m being pulled onto Alex’s lap. Edling bead first, my mouth digging into his c**h.

I lick my lips, excitement bubbling in my throat that dies down when his hand grabs my mouth, and the other smacks mylase “How’s that for punishment? Alex hisses.

My core throbs at the mere prospect of more.

“What were you doing. Mia?” Alex asks again.

“H**g up!” I reply in a little whisper that ends in a yelp as he smacks my a**again.

“The truth.”

“Grabbing- Grabbing your attention.”

Another smack, a lot harder this time.

“But I told the truth!” I protest.

“Why didn’t you grab my attention like a normal person?” He smacks again. “Using a phone.”

Tears fill in my eyes despite the desire that I feel.

“Because you let me go!” I cry out, and his hand recedes.

He loosens his grip on me, and I sit up straight, my a** hurting due to the pain he inflicted.

“You,” I hiccuped. “You took without asking. You made me fall in love with you without me getting an option, and then when it was all said and done, you decided to be chivalrous and let me go like I didn’t mean anything to you!”

5/6 Ale pressions change. “Mia, baby, I didn’t let you go.”

“Done” I warn, and when I notice the car had pulled into Alex’s driveway, I jump out of the car, and flee into the house that had become more of a home in the past few months than my apartment ever did, all because of the man that was currently following me.
