Tears Of A Wife novel Chapter 35

It's been a week since Atlas visited my clinic. It's been a week since we talked about the annulment. It's been a week since he signed the annulment papers I gave. It's been a week of just staying inside my house and being lazy to go to work.

Everything is tiring for me. My movements seemed to lack energy. It seemed like I am very tired of something I don't know. Seemed bored from all the things that were happening. Maybe, it is because I am pregnant. Or maybe, because I've been thinking too much about Atlas and the annulment case.

Atlas occupied my system too much. Sometimes, I thought of going to him and talking about his accusations of me. The restraining order for him was my Dad's idea. I asked Dad and he confirmed it. He insisted that it was for my safety and I do understand.

I sighed and looked around. I chose to stay in our greenhouse for a more relaxing view. The rare plants. The hanging plants. The ornamentals and my collections of succulents were feeding my eyes with its beautiful bloom but I still hardly find it to be happy. I still think about a lot of things related to the situation I am facing.

I sighed once more and let go of the newspaper I was holding. I am on the front page of the newspaper. The news about my annulment had spread. That the great and famous Olive Ramirez was a battered wife and has a cheater husband.

I don't know how the news spread. I didn't even know how they found out. All I think about is Atlas' family. I'm sure my mother-in-law's worried. I'm sure that they're also hurting. I was hurt too, but I can't do anything. This is what I choose and I will stand for it.

"Ahemm! Sorry, I'm late!"

I looked at the entrance of the place and saw Kraius Montreal's smiling face. He's in his blue polo shirt and pants. I also noticed a piaget wristwatch in his hand. He was walking like a model as he advanced his way to me. His hair was fixed, he also had a thin stubble.

"Hi! I'm sorry. It's traffic," he said when he sat on the chair in front of me. "Anyway, you have a mouth that talks," he sarcastically said.

I glared at him. Kraius will always be Kraius. Very playful and naughty. He just winked at me and placed his attaché case on the table. I shook my head and shrugged my shoulders, fixing the way I sat.

"What's the news?" I asked, trying to sound formal even though I want to roll my eyes at him.

"Nothing. Both you and your ex-husband is stubborn. Only his attorney and I talked. How can we settle everything without your cooperation?" he complained. "This is why I don't want to get married," he whispered.

I sighed again after what Kraius said. Atlas is true to his words that he will let his attorney handle everything. That's what I did, too. I also asked my Dad to do the job for me and he agreed.
