She Ditched Her Scumbag Husband After Her Rebirth

"Madam, should I prepare the meals now?" Miss Chloe asked.

She had been the chief for the Wilson family for very long time now.

"Don't worry miss Chloe, you can rest for today. I want to cook for my husband today." Rita said while smiling.

"But madam..." Miss Chloe was trying to say, but was cut short by Rita.

" I insist please."

"Okay if you say so. By the way, young master Liam is so lucky to have a wife like you, I can only pray you grew old together in love." Miss Chloe said as she smiled, patted Rita's shoulders and walked away.

Rita stared at the old lady and paused for a moment, allowing what the lady said to sink inside of her.

'Grow old tougher in love! Was that ever going to happen?

She doubted so. It's been eight years now since her marriage to Liam Wilson, but she could never win his heart. She did everything a wife could have done, hence putting her aspiration aside to become his full wife but non of her sacrifices could move him to love her.

He was an heartless psychopath who only cared about himself, and even though Rita knew he wouldn't change his attitude for her, she still had high hopes that he could change one day.

Soon afterward , she put on the kitchen apron and began cooking.

After making three different meals including Liam's Favorite, she placed them on the table and went to the bar to get the drinks.

As she got to the bar, her eyes caught sight of the wedding picture of her and Liam. She was smiling happily while Liam who was behind her was with an angry expression. Judging by this, she knew he was not happy about the marriage.

She should have know from the start that this was going to be a loveless marriage, but she was too blinded by her love for him to realize so.

Back then, her family and that of Liam's were close friends so in other for their friendship to continue, her father and Liam's father decided that it was right for the two of them to get married, and Rita did not hesitate to say yes to the marriage because she had always loved Liam.

But how could she not see from the beginning that his heart was with someone else. Had she known from the beginning that this was how her life was going to be after the marriage, she would have hesitated back then.

She broke out of her thought as she took the drink and headed back to the table where she had kept the food.

After placing the drinks, she finally removed her apron and went upstairs to take her bath while waiting for Liam's return.

It was already nine o'clock and he would return any time soon.

She was very excited because today was their wedding anniversary of eight years, so she thought it would be a good idea for both of them to celebrate it because they have never celebrated it before.

"Young master Wilson, is back." Rita heard the voice of miss Chloe from downstairs and quickly put on her earrings.

After packing her hair in bun, she glanced at herself in the mirror, seeing how pretty she looked which was up to her satisfaction and finally made it downstairs.

Liam was already sited on the sofa relaxing when Rita got down.

She smiled and made her way to him but he could only give her an angry look, which she was already used to after this eight years of their marriage.

"Welcome.." Rita said still smiling.

Irritated by the way she was smiling at him, he asked, "What is all this preparations for huh?"

"Well, you know today is our eight years anniversary, so I thought it was a good idea for us to celebrate it. I made all this. What do you think? Don't you like it?" She asked.

"I...." As he was trying to respond, he got a call.

Liam brought out this phone from his pocket and picked the call. It was an unknown number.

"Hello, who is this?.... What!." His scream made Rita to be at alarm.

Before she could ask him what the matter was, he had already walked away, hurrying out.

Out of disappointment, Rita went upstairs. There was nothing she could do rather than to wait for him to come back, if he will ever do.

.....

Two hours later, the door was pushed open.

Rita was already asleep when she heard someone screaming her name angrily. When she opened her eyes it was Liam.

Before she could stand up from the bed , he had already gotten upstairs. The next thing she knew was being forcefully dragged from the bed by Liam.

"This is all your fault Rita, I should have known from the beginning that you hated Joey Nash so much, how could you go as far as killing? You are so heartless." Liam was screaming.

Too stunned to speak, Rita was confused.

What did he mean that she killed Joey?

"What, cats caught your tongue, you can't speak?" Liam was saying.

"Am sorry, but you are confusing me Liam, how can you say I killed Joey. Surely you must be mistaking." Rita said, still confused.

"Really? Then take a look." Liam gave her Joey's phone which was stained with blood.

"Listen to the recording." He said.

Rita played the voice recoding and began to listen to it. It happened to be an argument she had with Joey over Liam, but that had been a long time ago, so why did Joey bring it up now?.

Before Rita could listen to the full voice recording, Liam snatched the phone from her.

"This must be a mistake, please believe me Liam. I..." Rita was trying to explain.

"Enough, you are a liar and a deceit and I won't listen to any thing you tell me. Now that you have succeeded in killing Joey, do you think you can still become my wife? No way, that with never happen." Liam screamed.

Rita could not believe what she had just heard, shock shot up her body as though she was struck by lightening.

She was innocent, and whoever was trying to frame her for Joey's death was someone who knew her. But how could she explain to Liam that she was actually innocent.

"Since you've killed the love of my life, I'll put an end to your life too." Liam said.

Sensing danger, it was the unsettling realization that hit her that Liam was not joking about ending her own life. Quickly she turned back and made her way downstairs.

"Rita!" Liam reached out, and it seems as though he wanted to hold unto Rita. Instead, however, he gave her a harsh push.

"Ahh!"

Rita was caught off guard and her body fell off the stairs. Her hair which she had tied in a bun previously loosened and scattered over the pool of blood oozing out of her head, and her body rammed against the wall.

Warm blood ooze between her legs.

"You asked for this yourself Rita." With a barbaric look, Liam walked down from the stairs towards the unconscious Rita. He then gave her a hard kick on the face.

While still in her pool of blood, she felt an unbearable pain that tore through her body.

This was the man she had gotten married to out of love eight years ago, she had left everything behind including her aspirations to become his full wife, yet this was all she could get in return after her sacrifice?

How could he believed she was the one behind Joey's death.., how could he be so cruel to her?!

She loathed this! She hated the day she ever met Liam Wilson.

More and more blood stained her blue dress as her vision began to turn dark.

With her last breath, she prayed in her mind, that if she could get one more chance back to life, she would amend all her mistakes. That she would never be so crazy in love with Liam ever again.

It was not long after, Rita still in her unbearable pain gave her last breath while hearing the voice of Liam saying she deserved it all.

In the living room of the Wilson mansion.

"Madam Rita, are you okay?" The voice of the person made Rita to open her eyes.

Wait, what was going on? Was she alive?

She scanned the whole place and saw that it was the living room of the Wilson villa, then she stared at the person and saw that it was miss Chloe, the chief. Getting out of the sofa, Rita felt very weak and could not stand up properly.

"You're very weak so I'll advise you take some rest. We were supposed to go get groceries, but seeing as you are sick l will go alone." Miss Chloe said.

One second... two seconds Rita still could not say anything. She was so confused.

Miss Chloe thought her sickness could not allow her to speak, so he let her be before heading for the door.

As soon as she was gone, Rita stood up still in her weak state and rushed to the calendar.

SEPTEMBER 10th, 2020.

Huh? Has she been reborn back in time to three years ago?

No way! Checking herself in the mirror and seeing that she was safe and sound, her tiny blue eyes were so full of excitement.

Does that mean she was granted another life? Definitely! One second she was laying in her pool of blood about to give up her last breath and now, she was alive.

"Welcome back young master Wilson." The voice of the servant coming from outside made Rita freeze in fear. What was she to do now? Was she still married to that heartless man?

Recalling how she was pushed down the stairs and him saying how she deserved the death, she felt heartbroken.

She went to the window and looked outside, and saw Liam Wilson, he was putting on a brown finely made suit and brown leather shoes.

With his hair packed at the back and sunglasses in his face, she could not help but be mesmerized of how good looking this man was like a fine painting of art work but heartless at the same time.

He had such an unapproachable aura that sent shivers down the servants who bowed their head as he was coming in. Neither was there love or any affection, but rather only coldness.

She looked at his glasses, not minding whether he was looking at her or not, and recalled the way he was looking at her as she was struggling with her last breath.

Now that she had gotten a second chance, she would never make the mistake of ever loving him again nor so crazy about him. Now she just wanted to divorce him, and start life afresh.

His tenderness and care never came to her when she was about to die, and so the memory of her previous life made her even more determined to leave him.

As he made his way inside the villa, Rita left the window and walked downstairs.

This was the right time for her to act fast!

All the servants inside the villa bowed their heads and stopped all what they were doing as he nodded to their greetings and made his way.

Rita came downstairs to meet him.

"So this is your little trick of trying to get me back home early huh?" He said and glanced at her tiny figure, she was very pale unlike before and her face showed no form of expression.

Did she call him back home? But why would she do that. She didn't recall anything now.

"Say something Rita." He urged her seeing as she kept mute and pretended like she did not heard what he said.

The door was pushed open and miss Chloe walked in.

"Am so sorry madam Rita. I was the one who called young master Liam seeing as you were not feeling strong." Miss Chloe said.

So it was miss Chloe that called him, yet he was quick to say that it was her. Did he think she was the fool like she used to before who loved him? This was a new era where she wished not to have anything with him again.

"Don't tell me you told miss Chloe to get me home on time just so I could cater for you, if you are sick then go to the hospital. In the future, don't ever attempt calling me regarding this cause it would be a waste of your time." Liam says.

"But..." miss Chloe was trying to explain, but Liam cut her short.

"I didn't ask for your opinion, so it will be better if you don't interfere and make the meals instead."

"Okay sir." Miss Chloe walked away.

After allowing what he said to sink inside her, Rita packed her scattered hair up in a bun, then she looked up at him, moving her tiny lips as she said, "I..."

As she spoke, the tears she had been holding for a long time rolled down her face.

She wipe the tears with her arm, took a deep breath and with more courage spoke up.

"I think it's enough now. I want a divorce!"

She knew no matter how hard she try to be a good wife and pour all her affection to him, she would not be able to win his heart nor will he reciprocate back the feelings to her. Therefore before she encounter her death from him one more time, it was only normal that she divorce him.

That could be the only way now. Moreover she had no desire to love him again, because she was tired already.

Tired of trying to impress thinking she could win him over and tired of fooling herself that all was going to be alright.

She just wanted the divorce now, so she could start her life anew and pursue her dreams while bettering her life on the long run.

After listening to what Rita told him, Liam immediately become very angry , he walked up to where she stood closing the space between them.

"What did you say?" He asked.

"I said, I want to divorce you." She says.

The next second, Liam grabbed her arms tightly that when she tried to free herself from him, she couldn't.

Glancing at the pale lady before him, Liam was anxious to know what she was planning on her mind, and his eyes were fixed on her as if they wanted to tear her skin apart.

Although, he did not know her too well but in this eight years of their marriage, he was well aware of her feelings for him and how she was so crazy in love with him. That no matter how hard he tried to make her understand that he was not in love with her, she was still so crazy in love with him.

But today, she was suddenly asking for a divorce. What could have gone wrong now?

After sharing the bed with him, and even after claiming the tittle of his wife and Mrs. Wilson, sharing his fortune and living a luxurious life, she suddenly wanted to divorce him.

Even after being responsible for Joey's death, she still had the audacity to ask of divorce from him. What did she mean?

"What silly games are you playing now, huh?" He asked, giving her a cold and unapproachable look.

The room that was once quiet was now echoing his voice, it was so loud that the servants could hear the conversation between them, yet Liam did not care.

"You must be kidding!" Liam said.

Rita knew it would all result to this and somehow she became scared of what he might do to her, yet recalling what she went through in her past life and all the sufferings, she summoned up more courage. It was now or never.

"I'm not kidding with you and not trying to play any games, the truth is I am sick and tired and I think it's high time I let it go. For this eight years, I have done my duty as your wife but not once was I appreciated nor accepted. I had high hopes that I could one day have a place in your heart but this is clearly a big lie. Now I feel it's high time we get divorced. I want to divorce you right now, Mr Wilson." She said.

The way she addressed him as Mr. Wilson sent shivers down Liam's spine. In the past Rita could not talk back at him and was as obedient and gentle as a dove, but he doubted the woman in front of him.

This was the first time that he saw her proving stubborn, he wondered if she had always been like this and only hid her true colors to herself. Her behavior was behind his expectations. She was so different and was another kind of lady to him.

Liam remained quiet, and kept starring at her. Suddenly, he seems to sense that there was something wrong with her today.

Rita had only stared at him with so much love in her eyes before, but now she looked at him without any emotions attached. Furthermore, her tone while taking to him was now indifference and no longer calm and seducing unlike before.

Although it was hard for him to know the reason why she changed all of a sudden, he was not bothered about that and also did not care about the divorce.

He loosened his tie on his shirt and said, "And what made you think you can divorce me so easily huh? It is not in your power to divorce me Rita. Also, you have always wanted to become the daughter in law of this family and lived a very luxurious lifestyle, what is making you to change your mind now? You could have rejected to marry me in the beginning but because of your greed for wealth, you gave in easily. Now get one thing straight, I will never divorce you . You are the main reason why Joey never became my wife, so you will continue to become my wife and feel the pain of your actions. I will make you suffer until you would wish for death to take you away instead." He said.

She became alarmed and felt a cold air of hatred and burning desire for revenge.

She was stunned after what he told her, then she gradually shook her head and screamed angrily, " Never! I will not allow that. I want a divorce right now. I want to divorce you Liam Wilson. I don't want to be your wife anymore." She said.

She could not tolerate it anymore. What if what happens in her previous life took place again. She would not sit and allow that to happen again. She could not stand and tolerate his indifference and cruel treatment to her anymore. She just wanted to be free from the shackles that Liam was putting her in.

No matter what, she must divorce this man.

While thinking of what to do, Liam turned with the intention to leave but she stopped him.

"Wait.."

She grabbed his brown suit and kneel down before him with tears in her eyes, "Please I'm begging you Liam, just let me go. I don't want to continue this marriage any more. I am begging you." She said.

Yet the man was unmoved by her pleading. Glancing at her while begging him, he frowned and violently yanked her hands from his suit.

"I think you are sick. Take her to her room now." He orders the servants

"Yes young master Liam."

The servants did not wait any more seconds and hurried to Rita on the floor.

"Miss please.." trying not to be rude, the servants offered to carry Rita up from the floor.

However, Rita shook her head and refused to stand up from the floor. But yet refusal was invalid, because as they saw Liam looking at them with an angry expressions, they had no option but to drag her from the floor.

Since her marriage to him, she has had a loveless marriage and seeing the way she was treated coldly by Liam, this gave the servants the chance to disrespect her too. So they dragged her roughly, not caring if she was hurt or not.

She struggled to free herself but the two servants hiding her were too strong for her to handle, so she was dragged roughly.

As she was being dragged to her room, she was crying and screaming In the whole of the villa, "Liam Wilson, I don't want to go back to my room, please let me go. I want a divorce please."

While struggling with the servant, she hit her leg on the table and her left leg began to bleed immediately.

Being confused if it was truly an accident or she did it on purpose for him to pity get, he walked to her and place a resounding slap on her face.

Then, he grabbed her chin violently and stared at her angrily.

"You can never get to divorce or leave me, so stop trying so hard when in the end you'll fail."
