Chasing His Ex-wife

Laura Grey stared blankly clat the divorce papers that her husband had already signed before dumping in front of her.

The heartbreaking pain of her situation was beginning to sink in as she closed her eyes and forced back her tears.

Her husband, Leo Carter stood tall and proud, looking every like the charming yet cold hearted man he was. Even after all these years of marriage, he was still cold hearted to anything concerning her.

“I’ve already signed the papers. You should quickly do the same. I want all all ties between us broken before Susie gets back,” he said, attention on his phone, not even bothering to glance her way.

Laura’s throat was thick with tears when she spoke. “What about our properties?

“According to our prenup, we’ve already sorted out the assets before we got married, so that won’t be a problem. I’ll also give you an additional 100 million and a vacation home in Italy. If not for my kindness, you’ll be leaving with nothing else, and I’m also doing it because I don’t want to explain your poverty to grandFather later.”

Laura felt a mix of shock and hurt. “Does your grandfather even know you’re divorcing me?”

Leo looked annoyed now. “What difference does it make? Do you really think his opinion will change my mind? Were you hoping to force me to stay with you by crying to him, if you are, then you’re more pathetic and desperate than I thought.”

The blow of his harsh words left Laura feeling dizzy, and she forced herself to swallow the lump in her throat. “Leo, please don’t do this to me… I don’t know what I did to offend you, but please can you not divorce me?” She begged, not caring if she sounded pathetic or desperate as she struggled to hold on to the only man she had ever loved.

Finally, he turned to face her, his expression cold and disgusted. His lips were thin, and his eyes were deep-set, his features sharp and hard. Even in her pain, Laura couldn’t help but feel a pang of longing at his strikingly handsome face.

“Why would I do something that stupid huh?”

“B-Because I love you,” she stammered, her eyes brimming with tears. “I love you, Leo. Please, I’m begging you, I want to stay as your wife, even if you don’t feel the same anymore.” She begged, not caring about the how desperate she looked right now.

“Laura Grey! I’ve had enough of this! I don’t want you and I’ve never wanted you. Every single minute with you in this loveless marriage feels like torture to me! Don’t you get it?!”

He waved his hand dismissively, clearly losing patience. “You knew it was a mistake to marry me. You knew I was forced by Grandpa to marry you because of a foolish promise he made to your grandmother. You also knew that I was in love with another woman, yet you forced yourself on me.
