Ava’s point of view “Ava, what are you doing here with another man? “Lily’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Do you know how stressed Julian has been for the past week because of you, and here you are, enjoying yourself, making me look like a husband snatcher? “ I threw her a stare, glassy and stern.. “What are you doing here, Lily? “I was too tired to deal with this woman, I didn't want to harm her or do something I'd regret and I'm trying to keep my emotions in check.. Lily shook her head in disbelief.. “Ava, I'm not going to sit here and watch you break Julian's heart, especially after everything he's done for me. You are going to get up and come with me right away… “ She edged nearer, her hand reaching out for my arms, but I was too quick to move away, pushed the chair behind me, rose, and stared at her. My pulse was racing beneath my skin, it took everything in me to keep my emotions under control. “I know what you are trying to do, Lily, but please understand one thing, I'm not interested in your games.. I've already left Julian so stay away from me.. “My words are carefully, my tone controlled, I don't know if she was really sick or not either way, I didn't want her to die in my hands, I don't know what will happen if I actually vent all my emotions on her, I'm not even sure of my own anger.. I turned my attention to Ethan, he nodded without having me say anything, rising off the chair, we both were ready to head out, but I stopped in my tracks when Lily grabbed my arm, her nails dug into my skin, a sharp pain cut through.. Rage rose in my stomach, twisting my guts.. “Let me go , Lilian Martin.. “My jaws clenched.. She was pushing my limits, and I couldn't promise to keep my cool any longer. I could sense all gazes on us, the air was humming with whispers, and I didn't want to humiliate myself because of her.. “I'm not letting you go with this man.. “ “Lily, I do not have time for this, okay, let me go. “ Her grip on my arm squeezed, my expression tightened, my heart now banging against my chest, without caring about what people are going to say, I grabbed her arm, shoving her away from me, she stumbled before she could fall, she was caught by Julian, who just walked into the restaurant.. Lily began sobbing, fake tears streaming down her cheeks as Julian gently helped her stand on her feet.. “Julian__” She sobbed, her frail frame trembling.. “I was just trying to convince her to come back home but she pushed me, what if I fell and get hurt__I'm. “ I rolled my eyes, she was just a drama queen, and every day I'm convinced that she's lying about a lot of things, and I couldn't stand the drama.. “What are you doing here with this man and how dare you push her? “ Julian's nostrils flared, his face was red.. “Apologies to her right now.. “He demanded. I scoffed, my gaze locking with his.. “In case you are forgetting, let me refresh your memory.. “My voice had zero emotions.. “We are getting divorced and I'm not going to explain myself to you, and as for her __” My gaze swept across Lily, who was faking her sobs.. “I didn't push her, and if you don't believe me, go and argue with your ancestors, I'm not interested. “Just as I was about to walk past him, he grasped my arm, stopping me in my tracks.. Ethan walked to us, he yanked Julian's arm away from me, pulling him towards him.. “Don't you dare lay your hands on her or else you have me to deal with .. “His voice sliced in the tensed air, sharp, stern, and cold.. For a second, I felt a shiver rushing down my spine, my heart beating in my ears. Julian burst into laughter, his eyes locking with mine..”I thought you were just pathetic but now I see you are also a desperate whore.. Is this why you decided to leave me? “He threw me a questioning gaze.. “Because you are having an affair with this man, right, my enemy I should have known before marrying you that a woman like you belongs in the streets, you don't deserve to be anyone's wife but an escort. “ I stumbled a step back, my throat constricted, making it hard to swallow as his words found their way right into my heart, every word felt like a dagger. Sharp Menacing and deadly “Go sleep around, spread your legs and sleep with all the men out there, but I'm never going to sign those papers, you will become an unfaithful woman who had an affair while married, that image will follow you to your grave.. “ Grabbing, Lily, hand, he was ready to leave, but I wasn't going to let him humiliate me like that.. “I learned from the best after all.. “My voice was laced with sarcasm, he stopped in his tracks turning to me.. “Yes, I'm having an affair with him, but you know the difference between me and you is that I actually have the guts to admit it, but what about you? “I shook my head.. “You have no spine, you don't have the guts to accept that you are having an affair with your sick Lily, do you? “ “I'm not having an affair with Lily. “His face tensed.. I laughed.. “Yeah sure, I believe that, and you know what, I don't care, but I just want you to swallow your words, you said no one will ever love me right, that you were doing me a favor by being with me right? “My heart raced as I slipped my hands into Ethan's, entwining our fingers together.. “We haven't even submitted the divorce papers yet, but I have someone who wants me, he's a million times better than you.. You can be with your beloved Lily and I will be with my Ethan.. Sound good doesn't? “ I winked at him, with that I started making my way out of the restaurant, Ethan walked beside me, his hand never leaving mine, all eyes turned to us, loud murmuring filling the room, but I ignored all of it.. I don't care anymore, they can all go to hell for all I care, and Julian is now going to suffer for all his words..
