Get lost Ex-husband

Chapter 5

After he left, I took off the ring and put it on the end table, right on the divorce agreement that I drafted a long time ago.

I packed and flew abroad.

If Derek had paid me more attention, he would have noticed that I had been packing recently.

He would have noticed that my belly didn't bulge like those women with four-month pregnancy.

Yet he didn't. He never paid me any attention. He always spared no effort to get rid of me and get close to the woman on his mind. Since then, I didn't mind give him the freedom he longed for.

It was a long journey, which gave me enough time to look back at the way Derek and I came through. When I landed, dozens of calls and hundreds of texts flooded into my phone.

Derek was driven crazy. He kept asking where I had been and why I wasn't home. I even received a message from Joana.

"Have you checked the hot topics? Are you alright?"

"Georgina, if you need to handle it, I can report to the headquarters and send you back. You may go back to the branch after you settle your family issues."

I checked the hot topic Joana mentioned. It was titled "maybe this is what happiness looks like'

The influencer recorded her happy life with her son, her mother-in-law, and her husband.

Her life looked peaceful and tranquil, though ordinary.

The only problem was that the husband in the video was Derek and the mother-on-law was Lucy.

The influencer wrote: "Finally, after all that has happened, I have you by my side." It was painful to see the line. It turned out I was nothing but a side character in their love story. Derek called me once again.

I picked up the call and was surprised to hear the sadness in his voice. "Georgina, it's not what you think it is. You have to trust

"Vivian only wanted to record her life. It was reposted by another account.

"Let's not get affected by the online world, OK? Georgina, I don't wanna get a divorce with you. Can we talk now? Where are you? I miss you. I wanna see you."

I sighed.

"Derek, you can't," I said. "What do you mean?" Derek hurried to ask.

"Our company has an overseas office. I'm now working here.

"I've left the divorce agreement on the end table. If you don't have any doubts, just sign it. Let's do it in a peaceful way, OK?" Suddenly, Derek became a willful little boy. He ignored what I 13130

had said. Instead, he kept mumbling, "Georgina, you're still in love with me, right? You're just mad, right?

"I will keep a distance from Vivian. I won't do anything you don't like in the future. I'm truly sorry about what I have done. Let's get back to the good old days, OK?"

I shook my head. "No."

"Please, Georgina, please." Derek started sobbing.

"For the sake of the baby..."

I could feel coldness in my face as the breeze blew. That was when I realized that I cried, yet my voice sounded untouched.

"We don't have a baby anymore. Derek, when you put the ring on Vivian's hand, I got it aborted."

Silence fell. After quite some time, Derek finally hung up the phone call.

I took in a big breath. I felt like I was reborn.

The news of me going abroad and divorcing Derek soon spread between our mutual friends.

Those on my side all accused Derek of being a scumbag while his friends seemed unusually quiet.

Only Victor was still active on Facebook, posting photos of them hanging out, drinking, and living in the same room.

Below his post, I saw Vivian's commentary. Vivian: "Back in the good old times." She wrote it at 3 a.m.

I used to be worried about Derek's stomach. Thus, I always called to ask him to go home early. Yet now, I didn't care about him anymore. I turned off my screen and got back tork. Occasionally, I would receive a few messages from Derek, yet I never received any of them. At first, he seemed quite assertive. Yet later, I started to beg more and more.

"Georgina, we can have another baby in the future. Could you please forgive me? I'm truly sorry. I won't do it again.

"I can't live without you. Please..."

I could hardly tell if he was drunk or not when he sent me those messages, yet I didn't care.

Since he wanted freedom, he would have it.

Since everyone believed that Vivian was better for him, I would exit from the scene.

My failure in marriage gave me more motivation at work. I worked hard and soon caught the attention of the executives of the company. I passed the assessment within one month and thus joined the R&D Group Three At the warm-up party, I got drunk. Alexander Betancourt, one of my teammates, stood out to help me out. He looked quite handsome in a suit.

We had the same cultural background and thus, we took care of each other and were always closer than others.

I knew that he had feelings for me. Yet I didn't wanna start a relationship right after my last marriage.

When we were having great fun at the party, I got a call. When I picked it up, I heard nothing but silence.
