Chapter 2 02

The next morning when Gloria woke up David had already left for his office.

She couldn't sleep all night and it was almost five in the morning when she could close her eyes and even after sleeping for three hours, she couldn't talk with him.

But Gloria didn't want to waste any more time as she was on pins and needles.

If she couldn't find him in the house, she can talk with him in his office.

After all, she is one of the shareholders of his company.

But talking with him was necessary, and she wanted to make everything perfect again before things go out of her hand.

She needed to know what made him take this decision and fix this thing so that they could return to their normal life.

She went to dress up hurriedly and ordered the butler to keep her car ready.

When she got down, there was already a car ready for her and she gets on it wasting no time.

She told the driver her destination and lean back tiredly.

Last night was like a nightmare for her.

She couldn't find any reason why David wanted a divorce and if she wouldn't found those papers still sitting in the living room, she would have dismissed all this, thinking it a bad dream.

But those papers were proof of her failed marriage, and she will try her best to fix this.

"Mam, we are here?" Gloria heard the voice of the driver and get off the car sighing.

This was the company where Collin works.

His grandfather has a separate business but when they married Collin was in a critical situation so his grandfather bought some shares in her name and supported David.

But Gloria never came here for any business meetings, though she has visited this office as Mrs. Collin several times, David was the one who handled all the business even the huge number of shares too.

But today when she came here there was a nervous feeling in her heart.

She was worried that Collin only married her for these shares only.

Though she dismissed this idea as soon as it hit her heart this idea was constantly bugging her mind when she remembered the papers.

She took a deep breath and walk inside the building.

Everyone who knew her identity greeted her as Mrs. Collin and this was making her more uncomfortable.

When Gloria reach the floor where his office was, he found out David's assistant Noah.

He was doing some work but noticing her he walk over to greet her.

"Mrs. Collin, what brings you here?" he asked politely though he was looking nervous.

Though Gloria was sure Noah know about the divorce as David's every word is handled by him but she didn't want to give him a hard time.

"I want to meet David." She replied, and Noah has a conflicted face.

"Mam, Sir is busy in a meeting..." He was hesitating but Gloria didn't give him time.

"I will wait in his office," Gloria said and walk inside.

She was waiting for almost two hours, but David didn't return.

She wanted to ask how long the meeting will go on so she come out but when she noticed David who was entering the elevator with a lady.

She couldn't see their face but she can't miss that person with whom she has spent three years.

"Mam, Sir just left for some work." Noah ran toward her and inform her immediately.

"Did you inform him about me?" Gloria asked, her gaze still looking at the elevator where those two people just left.

"Yes... but..." Noah was hesitating.

"Go back to your work," Gloria said and leave from there.

She absentmindedly returned to her house, but when she entered and saw a pair of female slippers on her doorstep, her heart was clenching in pain.

Still, she walked upstairs and wanted to ask him the reason for proposing a divorce.

She was walking toward her room when she heard some indecent voice which make her halt in her step.

"David, it's your bedroom. We shouldn't do it here. What if Gloria comes back?" This voice was her cousin's, Lia's

"So what? I am divorcing her soon." He says and there was a moan coming from inside.

"But you are not divorced yet, and she is still the shareholder of your company. What about the papers I told you to take her sign?" She ask and Gloria was confused.

What papers she was talking about?

"Those were in my study. I will make her sign those too." He says while groaning and she heard Lia moaning alongside him.

She didn't need to think twice about what was happening inside her bedroom, which used to be their marital bed two days back.

Gloria turned around and walk toward his study.

She is well known in this place as she has taken care of every room of this house for the last three years.

She opened the locker where David keep his important documents and there were some legal papers she wanted to see.

It was a transfer paper of Gloria's share.

If she signs them, David will become the sole owner of those shares which comprises almost fifty percent shares of his company.

Yes, Gloria had this much money invested in him, and don't mention the time and effort she has invested in this marriage.

Before marrying him, Gloria was doing an internship in her favorite fashion design company.

It was one of the best companies in New York and there was a saying whoever can work in that company can become a celebrity in the fashion world after coming out.

But she left all her dreams because she wanted to give all her time to this marriage.

She was on the moon hearing his proposal and nothing else mattered at that time.

But after seeing all this happening here everything felt like a stupid mistake.

Gloria didn't care why Lia was here instead of her or why David wanted to divorce her.

After seeing them do all this, Gloria just wanted to leave this place as it was suffocating for her.

She took those papers along with her and leave the house with a broken heart.
