A Love Forgotten

Thankfully, Frank wasn’t that nosy either. After giving me a few reminders, he let me go.

Then, I quickly called a cab, found Teri, and went home together.

Of course I had to return to Elijah’s villa to get my things. At the very least, I had to leave with a few changes of clothes,

As we were in the car, Teri chattered as she tried to come up with a plan for me.

After I’d picked Teri up, I even noticed that a golf club had been placed in the trunk. It was made from pure steel and felt comfortable in the grip of my hands.

Getting hit by it would surely be quite painful.

Once we arrived at the entrance of Elijah’s villa, we observed it from inside the car.

It was

It was dark inside the villa, and no one seemed to be home.

I took a deep breath. “I’m going in.”

Teri wanted to follow, but I told her to wait for me in the car.

However, she was worried and said, “What if you run into Elijah? I could at least help you deal with that scumbag.

I shook my head. “There’s no need. Elijah’s with Jocelyn right now.”

Teri asked in surprise, “How do you know?”

I opened WhatsApp and tapped on a random person.

Teri moved closer to look

She didn’t know that person, but they had written a huge paragraph of insults in their update.

“A certain someone is the ultimate lap dog but still won’t admit it. She even believed she was a badass when she attacked someone. Pft, She’s just a nobody.

“Did she forget how ridiculous she looked when she sucked up to him back then? Right now, he spends every day with a goddess and is attending the art festival’s opening ceremony with her.”

Below the caption was a photo.

Teri was angry when she read it, but in the end, she was more speechless than anything.

She asked, “Why do you keep this kind of person in your contacts? Why didn’t you snap back at them?”

I smiled. “Last night, those people said that I bribed them, didn’t they? I searched around, and unsurprisingly, found this.

“The opening of the art festival is at 10:00 am today. Jocelyn is an honored guest at the ribbon–cutting ceremony, and Elijah is with her.”

I pulled up the photo that the person had taken.

Teri was dumbfounded. “I suppose that works,” she said.

I then grabbed a large bag and told her, “Wait for me in the car. It will take me a few trips to bring back everything.”

After that, I used the facial recognition system to unlock the villa’s gate and walked in.

Once again, I was back at Elijah’s villa.

I felt a bit nervous and had maintained my composure just to set Teri at ease.

In truth, I didn’t want to come.

But I had to.

After all, some of my personal documents and undergarments, as well as the clothes, bags, and jewelry I’d bought over the last five years, were all here.

Yesterday, I’d spent the entire night thinking it over and preparing for the worst.

What would I do if Elijah refused to give me any money? If our divorce proceedings took a long time, how would I survive?

After mulling it over, I’d realized that taking the valuables I owned from the villa was my only option.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

I was Ariana York. I had wasted seven years of my life in the social circles of Halton City’s scions, and I wanted to leave now. I couldn’t be humiliated again.

Money was the only thing that could grant me dignity. I needed money.

I drew a deep breath and opened the inner door to the villa.

There was no one inside, and it was quiet. Not even the maid in charge of housekeeping was here. So, 1 hurried to the second floor, opened the door to my room, and packed my belongings.

It was fortunate that Elijah probably didn’t expect me to come back. Or perhaps, he never imagined that! would be back to take away my things.

I used my fingerprint to unlock the jewelry cabinet, and at the next moment, all the jewelry was then swept into my bag. There were also a lot of women’s watches.

I didn’t have time to scrutinize my identification card, passport, and things such as contracts and agreements. They were all swept into the bag as well. Those were the most important, after all. After that, I rushed downstairs, gave them to Teri for safekeeping, and ran up the stairs again.
