Married By Mistake novel Chapter 28

LUNA

"Huh?" I was dumbfounded.

"Oh? Why are you surprised? Isn't that really what we agreed on?"

I swallowed several times to hold back the tears. "Are you going to break up with me?"

He looked at me and took a deep breath. I could read in his eyes that he didn't like the word released. He averted his gaze. "Let's go to sleep. You shouldn't be awake."

After he said that he left me and went upstairs first. The next day I immediately went to Camille to empathize and vent my resentment. Because I will explode if I continue to harbour it.

"Luna, please, stop crying. I'll be bad with your baby." Camille’s soothing voice.

"He decides so quick Camille. Why is that? After all, I've done for him." I said as I wipe my eyes using tissue.

"Why doesn't it seem like I'm a loss in his life? he says she loves me so much. Is he just lying?"

Camille caressed my back. I wiped my eye with a tissue because my tears would not stop.

"Dylan loves you, Luna. I can see that. He's not thinking so he can't hear you yet. Show him the ultrasound result." Camille's suggestion.

I shook. "If he trusts me, why does he need proof that it's his? It's just so painful, Camille. He should have to trust me."

"Luna .."

"And if he loved me, he wouldn't mind that fucking annulment!" I said between sobs. "I thought everything was enough, but it wasn't enough."

I felt bad so Camille gave me rest before taking me home. I felt heavy again when I saw Dylan in the living room. He was talking to a familiar woman. This is the lawyer that arranging Dylan's inheritance. My chest throbbed as they looked at me.

"Mrs Reyes, it's been so long." The lawyer said when he saw me entering the house. "Please, have a seat."

I was nervous to sit next to Dylan. His expression was blank.

"What do you need, Attorney?" I stabilized my voice.

"Ah, I'll take care of your annulment papers." I couldn’t reciprocate the lawyer’s nice smile.

I was surprised by what the lawyer said and shifted my gaze to Dylan. His face was serious as his arm rested on the armrest of the sofa. I looked at the lawyer as he placed the folder in front of me. "Those are the annulment papers. Dylan already has that signature, all you need is your signature."

My eyes blurred when I saw that Dylan had already signed there. I didn’t have the strength to hold the ballpen provided by the lawyer. I just stared at the annulment papers I was holding.

The lawyer cleared his throat. "Ahm, I think you should talk first. I'll just leave the annulment papers."

Dylan led the lawyer out of the house. When the door closed I stood up and approached him. I clenched my fist to calm myself. "That's how easy it is for you, Dylan?"

"What's the purpose of this marriage? I'm just getting my inheritance, right?" He says coldly.
