For the past three years, Sebastian had always wanted to divorce Quinn, but she was always pleading with him when he talked about divorce. However, after he received the text from Quinn, he felt bad for some reasons that he couldn't explain.
“Alice, I need to get home now. I'll have my assistant come soon to watch over you for me.” He stormed out of the hospital room without waiting to hear her response.
Alice gritted her teeth and clenched her knuckles into tight fists, “Quinn! That bastard. I will make you pay for ruining my plans.”
As Sebastian drove back home, he stared back at the text he had received from Quinn, wondering why he was feeling so bad. Is she really going to divorce him? Or was the text a prank to make him come home?
In about fifteen minutes, he arrived at his mansion. He didn't see Quinn downstairs, so he made his way upstairs to his bedroom. He knew she would be there.
Immediately he got to the room, he felt a chill run down his spine when he spotted her sitting on the bed with her luggage beside her.
“What was the text message about?” He asked, his voice husky.
“I won't apologize to Alice so I had the divorce documents prepared. It's over there.” she spat, showing no excessive emotions on her face.
Sebastian's face turned stone cold, “are you sure about this? Once I sign the divorce papers, there's no going back.”
He knew Quinn was just an orphan who was taken in by his grandfather. She has no friends or relatives, where would she go after divorcing him? She could have just apologized to Alice and still be his wife. Why was she being so adamant? She had always been an obedient wife to him.
“I know, just sign it.” Her heart fell upon saying this.
She had loved Sebastian for three years hoping that he'd love her back one day but he had only mistreated her and given her painful memories. She sacrificed a lot to be with him, all it took for him to betray her love for him was Alice, his first love.
Sebastian walked up to her and grasped her jaw in his large palms. “I know this isn't about the apology, tell me why do you insist on getting a divorce?”
Quinn flinched, “What are you doing? Didn't you say we should divorce if I can't apologize to your mistress? Let's get divorced. You never loved me, you chose to believe her words over mine. I can't do this anymore, let's just end it now.” She felt a tickle in her eyes but she tried to hold back her tears.
A resounding slap landed on her cheeks.
“How dare you call her a mistress? You killed her baby, why can't you apologize to her? Why? I can't believe you killed an innocent baby and do not feel remorse.” His voice dripped with disdain.
Quinn's face was searing with pain. This man was a monster who’d go crazy over Alice. She almost lost her baby too because of this vicious woman who killed her own baby. She can't keep arguing with this man.
“If you can't even differentiate the truth from a lie, I see no reason why you should call yourself a man.” She glanced at him with a withering glare.
“Let's meet at the courthouse tomorrow morning at nine.” With that being said, she stood up and turned to leave.
Sebastian's voice, blazing with anger stopped her in her tracks, “Do you even know what you are saying? If we get divorced, you won't have access to any of my finances. Is my money not all you've always wanted?”
“To hell with you and your money Sebastian! And I meant every damn word.”
Sebastian’s eyes became red with rage. He never imagined that his once dutiful wife would ever address him this way. He hurriedly went to pick up the divorce papers and turned to the next page only to see that she was leaving with nothing.
“She's leaving with nothing?” He whispered. He couldn't believe that Quinn wasn't after his money or was she pulling up a trick? He was very certain that she had agreed to marry him for his money.
After Quinn left the mansion, she called her brother whom she hadn't reached out to in three years. She was going back to her former life. The truth is, she wasn't an orphan that old Mr. Meyer had mistook her for. She was the only daughter of Mr. Morgan, the most powerful and wealthy man in the United States.
“Brother! I'm ready.” She said, her eyes brimming with tears.
Soon, a luxurious Rolls Royce Phantom pulled up in front of the mansion.
A well-suited man stepped out of the car, with a purposeful stride. He adjusted his tie properly, exuding an air of quiet confidence.
“Chase!” Quinn called out and strolled hurriedly to him and embraced him tightly. It's been three years since she left her family. Her father wasn't in support of her getting married to Sebastian. But she promised her father to come back if she couldn't win Sebastian's heart in three years.
She never believed she'd actually go back to her father. She had thought she could make Sebastian fall for her, she had put all her efforts into making him happy for the past three years. She never expected that Sebastian would betray and mistreat her in the cruelest way possible.
Chase Morgan patted her back comfortingly as tears gushed down her cheeks. “You've made a good decision little princess. You don't have to regret it now.”
Sebastian Meyer rushed out and saw the scene. “What?” He thundered.
Before he could react, Chase Morgan already gave him a death stare and hopped into the car with Quinn after helping her with her luggage.
Sebastian noticed the hostility in his eyes.
“Mr. Chase?? Is Quinn divorcing me because of this man?” He asked himself, his voice barely above a whisper.
He knew Mr. Chase was a well-known business tycoon across the world. How did Quinn get involved with him when she was always indoors performing her duty as a wife to him? What relationship does she have with him?
Sebastian couldn't describe the feeling, but anger surged in his heart now.
Now he was certain that Quinn was just always after rich men, she had married him for his money. And now going out with Chase as soon as she decides to divorce him.
