Her Ex-husband’s Wrath

“So, it’s true what my ex-husband Eugene and my present husband who was once my ex-husband Hunter said. Your fucking here my dear sister-in-law, working in this goddamn hospital as a fucking personal assistant. Are you fucking kidding me, what kind of stupidity is this?” I didn’t answer Ley’s question and I remain standing.

I am not prepared for her appearance which is why I am a little nervous.

I also saw Agatha stand up when she saw Ley but she didn’t bother to talk.

When did she come and why she didn’t talk to me first?

Why did she show up here immediately?

What is she planning?

“Mind your words, Ley, you are in my office,” Asher said calmly.

“So, what now if your office, who am I?” Asher didn’t say a word to Ley’s question. Ley looks at me then Asher talks.

“Don’t bring your personal relationship. Ashley is here as my PA,”

“No one cares and even I more is I don’t care.” Se touched my chin and pressed my lips. I averted my gaze but she touched my face. She scratched my cheekbone with his palm. She held my hand and scraped the concealers. The bruises on my hand were exposed.

“Who made those?” I didn’t answer and just averted my eyes. “I’m asking you, who did that?”All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“Ley, please not here, we can talk privately,” I said while looking at them. “Don’t make me embarrassed at my work during my time.

“You just give a name and you’re talking too much, who?”

“Me,” Asher replied so Ley turned her attention to him. “I beat her up, I tortured her,” he admitted.

“You? You did this to her? Do you fucking hurt her? Who the fuck are you to do this to your shareholder’s sister? Hell you, asshole.” Asher didn’t say a word to Ley but Paula immediately intervened in the conversation while still in Asher’s lap.

“Do you know the word respect, Hailey? You’re not in your place so mind your words.” Ley raised an eyebrow then approached Paula and held her hand. “Ouch,”

“Ley!” Clifford scolded her.

“Paula, Kyla’s half-sister. Are you going to replace your sister with being a prostitute? May her soul go to heaven. You might not be able to handle me, Pau, so tell don’t me what to do.”

“I’m hurting,”

“You’re really going to hurt if you blocked my way,”

“Let her go!” Asher shouted.

Hailey quickly let go of Paula’s hand but she grabbed Paula’s face and squeezed hard.

“Respect, You’re mentioning the word respect? You really didn’t respect yourself and you hugged Asher in front of his wife. Where’s the respect you’re saying?”

“Stop it, Ley! You’re’ really hurting her,” Asher scolded her.

“You’re stupid,” Ley said without letting go of Paula’s face. “You were worried that I would hurt your mistress but you hurt your wife? Then, why, isn’t it true? Ashley hasn’t annulled you yet. She’s you’re PA but she’s still your wife. She didn’t use your last name but you are still married. Now, Paula Collins. Where is the respect for what you do? You’re just kidding, right, so please don’t make fun of me.” That’s when Agatha interrupted.

“Ley, please stop it, don’t make a scene here.” So, Ley faced her.

“Shut up, I don’t need your words. You two are the same that is why you favored her. Why, Agatha, can you stand the throne that Ashley handed to you? You might tremble when I face you.” Agatha couldn’t answer. Even I remained stumped. “If you can’t fight back up with me, keep your mouth shut.”

Then she faced Asher again and pulled Paula away.

“Get out there. You’re so annoying.” Paula almost fell on the ground so Agatha approach and help her.

I remember how I treated Kyla then to make up for what she did to Ley. Now Ley used to work for me with Kyla’s sister. Hailey confronted Asher and grabbed his collar then adjusted it.

“I am proud of you because you lifted me up and brought me back to my senses. I owe you my life. But at some point, you’re stupid and just now I realized. How talented you are in your profession is the same stupidity you have in reality.” Then she fixed Asher’s hair.

“You know nothing, Ley. You don’t know what I’ve been through because you are not here.” Asher said firmly to Ley but Ley remained calm.

“How about you, do you know what Ashley went through when she disappeared?” Asher could not answer. He looked at me but Ley held his face back.

“What do you mean?”

“Secret, I’m just asking you if you know anything? You’re too quick to react.”

“Ley,” I called to Ley and was about to approach but she pointed at my foot.

“Stop right there. Don’t come near me because I don’t want to talk to you.” I couldn’t move because of what Ley said. I was scared of her threat so I remained stumped. She rolled her eyes and faced Asher again. “You don’t know either, do you, Asher? Because you’re selfish. Because you’re a coward.” Ley said directly in Asher’s face.

“Do you think you’re brave? Do you think you’re good? No, you’re nothing but a foolish coward. Because of your cowardice, you chose to keep quiet, you chose not to know the truth. Why, because you were afraid to know the true reason why she left?”

“Ley, please stop,” I called to her.

“Stop interfering with my dramas!” She shouted and looked at me badly so I bowed. “I’m acting here and I feel like I am in soap opera and you keep on calling me?” She said then re-organize again.

“Anyway, you thought of your pain self, Asher. Because of the pain, you went through you gave up without doing anything. Me, I gave up because I knew in myself that Hunter didn’t love me. When I felt that he loved me, I knew in my heart that there was still hope. I faced the truth with us, with me, and with him.”

“Ley,”

“I said stop Ashley!” I recoiled at the strength of her shout. Agatha looked at me but I just shook my head saying don’t listen to her.

She needs to stop or else this conversation will be ended in a way that I don’t like.
