Taming My Arrogant Husband novel Chapter 69

"Nothing happened between us----"

"The hell I care! I didn't come here to listen to you and I don't care whether you banged her or you banged each other, I don't fucking care! You said we're not a couple and I was just your fake wife, so I have no right to interfere, right? I just came here to give you this!" I waved the divorce application in front of him. 

"No!" He shook his head. 

"I am a person with one word, Mr. Kelley. I have already signed it, so all you have to do is sign your name and file it in court, and that's it! You're finally free from this marriage and finally free from this agreement!"

I took his hand when he refused to take it from me. 

"Once it is granted, you will never see me in your life again!" I was about to turn around but I remembered one thing. "By the way, I will never take a single centavo from you, or even the smallest thing that you gave me! Goodbye, Mr. Kelley!"

The moment I turned around, it's also the moment that tears started to flow down. I covered my mouth and tried to stifle my sobs, but they were so stubborn like me. 

"Sophia!"

I heard him call behind me but I didn't look back, instead, I ran towards the elevator but stopped when Andrew came out. 

"Hey, what happened?" Shock and confusion were written on his face but I just ignore him by entering the lift and immediately press the button, down to the basement where my car was parked. 

It was so lucky for me that no one entered the lift until I reached the basement parking lot. 

His words from last night still linger on my head and were added to the pain that my heart feels at the moment. It cuts deeply, but what I saw slices my heart into pieces, not enough to die, but enough to feel the pain and feel the scream inside. 

It's hard to fight for something----no, for someone that you know is wrong and not meant to be yours from the very beginning. But do you know what hurts the most? It is when you learned that you love that someone and made you believe that he feels the same, but in the end, you will realize that you just expect for nothing. 

End of flashback...

"That's all!" I shrugged as I wiped the tears that keeps on running down my face. 

He didn't utter any words so I turned to look at him only to see him frowning and balling his fists. 

"You won't come back to his house again, Sophia!" He said clenching his teeth. 

"Don't worry, because even if you don't tell me such a thing, I will never see him again."

"Just make sure, because I swear to kill him the next time we see each other!"

I couldn't help but chuckle with his words. 

"You don't have to do that for me, Bryan. It's enough that you believed and you supported me from the very beginning. You helped and you stayed by my side without asking anything in return."

"It's because you are my sister, even if not by blood but in my heart you are my little sister."

"Argh!" I glared at him when he messed up my hair, but he just chuckled at me. 

"I'm serious, Sophia. I can't stop your heart from loving him, but I will stop you from being a fool and stupid over him!"

"And do you think loving him is not a kind of foolishness or stupidity?" I asked in a sarcastic tone. "If I had known that falling in love was a mistake, I should have stopped myself from loving the wrong person."

"Falling in love is not a mistake and it's not wrong to love a person so much. Sometimes, the only thing wrong is the person you love, maybe he isn't ready to catch you."

He smiled at me, tapping my shoulder as he stood up.
