Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M novel Chapter 390

He pushes the document across the counter. Taking it, I go through it. I’ll have my lawyer check it out after, but it's always good to go through a contract yourself first. If there is one thing my brother taught me, it is that I should never sign anything I haven’t read.

The basics we discussed were there. The contract would be valid for a minimum of two years. At the end of it, I would get Unity Venture and some alimony. Gabriel will also continue supporting Lilly. He also stated that he wanted Lilly recognized as his daughter, and her last name would be changed to Wood.

Those were the most important to me, so after reading and re-reading them, I put the papers down.

“Any complaints?” he asked, forwarding me a pen.

“No, but I’d like to add some stipulations.” I stared at the pen, but didn’t pick it up.

“What kind of stipulations?”

Taking a deep breath, I lift my head. “One, I demand fidelity. Our marriage before was a secret and that allowed you to get away with cheating on me. This one, as stated, will be publicly announced, and I’ll be damned if I let you humiliate me in public by having mistresses. I also won’t allow any embarrassment towards Lilly. She deserves more than a father who can’t keep it in his pants. I don’t want her to have to see articles about you parading other women in magazines.”

I stopped, pulling air into my lungs. His stare is intense, and his jaw is locked, but I refuse to stand down.

“I love sex, Harper. What am I supposed to do?” he finally asked.

I shrug. “Your hands will probably see a lot of actions, but I don’t care. Figure it out, because if I so much as find out you cheated on me, I will cut off your cock and shove it so far up your ass you’ll need a rectal retractor to remove it.”

I watch as he winces, but eventually he nods. I guess he’s starting to see that I’m not one to fuck with.

“What about you?” he asked after a while.

“Lastly, I don’t want to wait till the end of our contract to join Unity Ventures. I want to start working there as soon as it can be arranged. If I’m going to take over, I need to know the workings of the company.”

"Fine,” he nodded. “Anything else?”

I shook my head. “No. That’s all.”

“Okay then, I’ll get my lawyer to add your stipulations and have them back for your signature by evening.” He took the documents and, without another word, walked out of the kitchen.

I sigh a breath of relief. Unlike the last time, this time I knew what I was getting into, and I’ve taken countermeasures to make sure that after the two years I'll leave in on piece. There is no way I am going to get hurt, right?
