Chapter 22

    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“I want a divorce. Elijah, let’s part ways peacefully if you have any decency as a man,” I said.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I looked him in the eyes with determination. “I was young and naive back then. I made mistakes. Let’s set. each other free. Elijah”</font></font>Têxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">With that, I turned and left the hospital with Frank by my side.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After that, I saw Elijah standing alone in the hallway as the elevator doors slowly closed.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I lowered my eyes and refused to look at him again. I couldn’t quite describe the feeling in my chest, but I knew I felt lighter.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I was proud and beautiful when I was 18. However, I fell in love with the wrong person and became emotionally damaged because of that</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">But I was still just 25 and could still start over.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I just had to be more careful with my heart this time.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">When I returned to the Wood residence, Frank continued administering my IV drip and medication, and I</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">cooperated without protest</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Then, before Frank left, he looked at me and seriously said, “Ms. York, everything will be fine.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I was slightly surprised and asked, “Dr. Drake, do you know about me?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Frank smiled “It’s a small circle. But don’t worry. I don’t think you’re like what everyone says you’re like</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I felt a sense of warmth upon hearing his words.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After that, I dozed off for a while after Frank left before being woken up by a call from Ter</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I picked up the call</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Ten sounded as if she was out of breath as she said, “Ari, look at this! I can’t believe this woman is so</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">shameless She then sent me a screenshot</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">i opened up the image–it was a picture of a cozy candlelit dinner.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Fine steak, red wine, glowing candles, and a striking bouquet of roses were on the table. In the picture. there were also two hands sped together</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The hand belonging to the woman had slender and fair fingers, and there was a dazzling pink diamond ning on it too Meanwhile, a man was gently holding her fingertips. Only a blurred glimpse of his tailored suit sleeve along with a blue diamond cufflink could be seen in the frame</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Immediately recognized the cuffink–it belonged to Elijah He had worn the same suit earlier when he d confronted me that afternoon and harshly used me of forcing Jocelyn out of Halton City</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The caption on the photo read. “With you I’ve found my home</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Tert was getting impatient as she ated for my response “Are you done? Did you notice anything?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I looked at the photo again carefully before saying the flowers are beautiful. That pink diamond ring is quiterge it might be around the carts and must be expensive</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Terlet out a fruitutedugh This post is from Jocelyes social medial i cant believe she a having a</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">and dinner with Elgar het Lac de cing A Brigh</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">sond</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Do you know what that means?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I certainly knew what it meant–diamonds had always symbolized unwavering and eternal love.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I gently said, “Teri, calm down.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Teri was momentarily stunned by my calmness. She asked, “Ariana, are you alright? You normally would’ve stormed over to catch them red–handed by now!”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Upon hearing that, I suddenly felt tired. “Catch them? Have I ever done that?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Teri finally spoke up after a long pause, “Yes, you have. It was quite a scene. You would embarrass Elijah every time. Meanwhile, Jocelyn, that perennial bitch, would cry her crocodile tears. People would then start to criticize you behind your back.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Exactly. You already know that Jocelyn is baiting me on purpose so that she can act as a victim and be all innocent. Why should I fall for her trap again?” I said.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Teri’s anger immediately subsided. She was puzzled and asked, “Ari, are you truly not angry?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">I pressed a hand to my aching chest. I couldn’t bring myself to say that I was not angry.</font></font>
