Chapter 5 What did you think you are doing

Teddy, who was carrying a lunch box he just got from the hospital restaurant, walked in. Who knew he would be meeting this heartless woman here.

"Bully her you said," Jane chuckled. "I just came to tell her to clear my name. Which eyes of yours sees that I'm bullying her. And by the way she is trying to frame me. I will make sure to get evidence to prove my innocence."

"Who would be so stupid to suffer such a big fall just to frame someone like you up?" Teddy mocked as he glared at her.

"Get lost immediately or I will make you regret it." Teddy angrily shouted at her.

"No need to chase me out, I will leave." She left the ward with a straight back not looking weak at all.

Back to the present,

Standing up from the cold floor, Jane picked up the pen that was sitting on the table beside her. Looking at Teddy's signature on the paper, which doesn't look like he was reluctant to sign the papers at all, she felt a sharp pain in her chest, as she signed the divorce agreement with tears streaming down her face.

The person she had loved, and also been in a relationship with for a year just abandoned her. Since he wasn't happy getting married to her in the first place, it's better to leave this bondage called marriage if that would make him happy. Since being with that woman would make him a happy man, she didn't mind sacrificing her own happiness to make him happy.

Her luggage had been packed already. After the head maid saw that she had signed the papers, she pushed a suitcase toward her feeling pity for her. Even if their boss doesn't love her, this woman is very nice to all the maids in the mansion.

Picking up the suitcase, Jane was prepared to start to leave. Just then, she heard a mocking voice speaking to someone else.

"Mum, I heard that Jane had just signed the divorce papers. I didn't think that a shameless gold-digger would sign those papers easily. I think my brother either threatened her, or maybe she came back to her senses." Teddy's sister who heard the news of her brother's divorce rushed back home from her outing.

"Tsk," Jane mocked. She just signed the documents and the news has flown throughout the mansion. How pathetic.

Teddy's sister and mother haven't liked Jane since she came into the mansion. They always bullied her, and always talked about how good it would be if Ava was the one that got married to Teddy instead. They always call her names, which she endured because of her love for Teddy.

Not minding their banter, she dragged her suitcase with her as she walked towards the front door of the mansion.

"Don't think because you divorce my son, you will be getting any alimony from him. I knew you married him for his money, now that you are divorced, you won't be getting any of it either." Teddy's mother shouted at Jane as she and her daughter blocked the front door while gloating at Jane's misfortune.

"Don't worry, I'm not planning on taking anything away from this marriage in the first place." After she said that, she left the mansion as she passed in between them. She hasn't taken more than two steps when Teddy's mother dragged the suitcase in her hand from her.

"You didn't bring any luggage when my son married you, and now you are taking one with you. Who knows what you have stolen." After she said that, she unzipped the suitcase as she poured down all its contents.

Seeing that it was only clothes that were there, she wasn't satisfied as she rummaged through them. She found a small box sitting at a corner of the bag. She brought it out.

"No, don't open that." Jane panicked as she saw Teddy's mother wanted to open the box. Seeing how she was panicking about the box, Teddy's mother shouted. "Who knows what you stole inside here to be panicking like that." She snarled as she opened the box. Sitting inside the box was a beautiful jade bracelet. Teddy's mother had never seen something like this before.

She knew it would cost a fortune just looking at it. Glaring at Jane, she questioned, "you bitch, where did you get this from. Did you steal it, or is it my son that got it for you?"

Jane rushed forward wanting to collect the bracelet from her. When she ran away from home, that was the only thing she took with her. "Give it back, that's a gift from my mother."

Teddy's mother chuckled. "Who doesn't know you are just a lowlife. Where can your mother get this bracelet from with your background? "

"Just give it back." Jane struggled to get it back. Due to their push and pull, the bracelet fell down and broke into two. "Ahh!" Jane screamed seeing her bracelet broken.

Anger was clearly vivid in her eyes as she rushed forward and slapped Teddy's mother, which landed her on her butt.

"You bitch, how dare you slap my mother." Teddy's sister also rushed forward as she took hold of Jane's hair pulling her forward with it.

Both of them started fighting. Teddy's mother also stood up from the ground to help her daughter beat jane. Seeing this, the maids rushed forward and separated them.

"I won't let you guys off. Just you wait." Glaring at Teddy's mother and sister angrily, Jane rushed out of the mansion angrily without taking anything with her.

Two hours later,

Jane has been wandering around Los Angeles for the past two hours without any destination in mind. She doesn't have any friends in Los Angeles who she can stay with for sometime. Her face was swollen which shows she had been crying.

She had been thinking about all that she had suffered for the past year just for love. The man she loved did not even have her in his heart. His family also doesn't like her.

Remembering how she hurled abuses on her father when she left her family angrily, just because of the arranged marriage that had been prepared for her since birth, she couldn't help but cry out her heart.

She had been traumatized by the word arranged marriage since childhood, just seeing her parents' relationship while growing up. She can't even go back home. She is scared of being criticized by her relatives.

She thought being married to someone she loves will be better than getting married to an arranged partner who she doesn't know anything about, who would have thought that her one sided love won't yield anything.

Not having the courage to face her family, especially her father after all the stunts she pulled two year ago, she decided to end it all.

Without knowing how she walked to the tallest bridge in Los Angeles, thinking about how it will be good if she ended it all by committing suicide than to face her family members, she looked down at the flowing water under the bridge which seems to be calling her name. She is someone who is scared of heights, but she doesn't care at this moment.

She was the only one standing on the bridge as cars of different types zoomed past her.

Not minding the sound of the cars passing, it's like her mind has been struck to the water that seems to be calling to her. It's like the water was reminding her softly that the best solution for all her problems is to jump into it.

Closing her eyes, she lifted her feet off the floor preparing to jump into the water, when she heard someone trying to stop her actions.

"And what the hell do you think you are doing!" Someone shouted at Jane trying to stop her silly actions.

It was like his voice added energy to her actions as she was too shocked to hear the voice trying to stop her. The shock made her lose her footing which made her fall forward as she screamed out her lungs.

"Fuck!" The man cursed as he rushed towards her, but it was too late.
