Ex-Wife novel Chapter 15

Author Pov

"How could you Xander. How could you do this? I trusted you more than myself and you. How Xander how." The girl said crying. She palmed her face trying to believe that her most trusted person did this.

Xander stood there stared at her not knowing what to say or do. He gulped before trying to touch her but instead, she pushed his hand away and stepped back.

"M-Mia listen to me. I am sor--" Mia looked at him with sadness all over her gaze.

"What. What will you explain Xander? I never thought you can stoop this low. I trusted you, Xander. I trusted you." She said crying letting tears fell from her green eyes. The same eyes he loves the most but now he's the reason behind their sadness.

He again tried grabbing her arms but she stepped back shrugging his touch away. Xander's eyes started getting teary when she shot him a disgusted look making him visibly flinch with how much hatred she looked at him.

"I am sorry Mia. I don't know what happened to me. I am sorry I am so so sorry. I swear I will make everything right." She chuckled sadly before sitting on the sofa lifelessly.

"There is nothing you can make right now Xander. You destroyed everything. I will never forgive you for this Xander. Never." Xander's tears started falling when she refused to even look at him.

"Get out. Never show me your face again." She mumbled hurting him even more. He tried to say something but flinched away.

"I SAID GET OUT."

Xander shot up from his sleep sitting up on the bed breathing heavily. He looked around before closing his eyes taking deep breaths.

That nightmare will never leave him. That one mistake will always follow him like a shadow. How could he? Why did he become selfish? Why didn't he stop himself that night? Why.

He let his back meet the bed's headboard as he gulped the glass of water down his dry throat. He closed his eyes but then.

"I forgive you, Xander."

His eyes once again shot up as he stared at the wall blankly. No matter how much he tried to convince himself that he already had redeemed his mistake but the relaxation he never gets.

Peace was nowhere. Will things be different if he didn't make that mistake. Will she be with him. Right beside him holding him in her warm embrace just like she used to.

She was the only person who made him believe that there is indeed a little peace in his life. She was the only source of comfort in his life then why did he break her like that. She was his happiness then why did he snatch hers. Why.

He used to the thought that it's her forgiveness that he wanted the most but no. It was her. Only her. He wanted her. Her presence near him but he didn't even realize that he lost her. And in the way that she will never come back no matter how much he tries to find her this time.

"I am sorry Mia. I wish I could bring that time back. I am sorry." He whispered to no one.

Meanwhile

"Liam"

Amelia whispered making the guy look up and instantly her beautiful grey eyes met his forest ones.

"What are you doing here." She questioned with a hard tone. There was nothing for this guy to roam around her now then why is he here then.

Liam weirdly smiled at her and took a step forward only to stumble badly. Amelia instantly moved towards him making his body collapse in her arms. Her face scrunched up in disgust.

"You drunk Liam." She exclaimed in annoyance as he threw his whole weight on her.

She sighed dragging him inside. How much she wanted to throw him outside and walk inside without caring about him but God knows why did he make her this kind-hearted.
