OMG!!! My Crippled Husband is a Hot, Powerful CEO-Chapter 152 – You are the only woman in my life
Chapter 152: Chapter 152 – You are the only woman in my life
"Alex, I’m so happy she proved me wrong, but I realized that she deserves someone better than me. All I want is to grant her wish of not seeing me again," Aiden said seriously from the end of the line. Alex was saddened but respected his decision.
"If that is the case, I wish you all the best."
At the end of the line, Aiden smiled. "I know she won’t ask about me, but if she does, tell her that I granted her wish of not seeing me again."
Alex felt the message might hurt Violet but was certain that due to all that had transpired between them, Violet would not ask about Aiden.
He allowed Joanna to spend the night in the same room with Violet, which gave him the chance to tackle issues concerning Salvadore. He even left the house for a week and returned the night of Bennette’s divorce date, afraid that Bennet might turn violent.
As such, Alex had to be there since Joanna wanted to support Violet. They arrived early and waited until it was their turn after Bennette and a frail woman got down from his car.
"Let’s wait until it’s their turn," Alex cautioned Joanna and Violet. The two women stayed back until around thirty minutes before they proceeded to the divorce court after Violet received a text message. ’It’s done.’
At the entrance of the divorce court, Violet, Joanna, and Alex cornered Bennet. The look in his eyes at the sight of Violet was priceless, though the latter pretended to be clueless about what was happening.
"Bennet, what are you doing here?" She stared at the woman beside him, recognizing her as Sadie. "And who is she?"
Sadie must have put on layers and layers of makeup because she looked better than in the pictures. However, fear registered in her eyes when she locked gazes with Bennet, instantly lowering her gaze.
"This is my sister, Sadie. She came to get a divorce, but the asshole of a groom did not turn up," Bennet said smoothly. Violet smiled as she caught a glimpse of the document in Sadie’s hand and snatched it.
"How interesting that her husband has the same name as you and also looks like you? Must be your twin brother, I guess," Violet taunted. Bennet was nervous.
Things were not supposed to turn out like this because from the look of it, he might just lose everything if he gathered the courage to confess his divorce.
With him being mute, Violet smiled at Sadie, knowing the girl would not recognize her.
"I’m Violet. How about you?"
The name Violet caused a light to flash in Sadie’s eyes. When everything was finalized without her seeing Violet, she thought that everything was lost and Violet had given up on her.
It turns out that was not the case. "I’m Sadie."
"It’s stated that you married and divorced Benne..." Before she could complete the sentence, Bennet cut in. "I have to take her to her parents."
Violet stared at him for five seconds and unexpectedly, a slap was sent his way. He staggered and glared at her.
"What is that for?" If not for Alex’s imposing presence, Bennet was sure to have returned the slap because of how painful it was. But when Violet began to speak, he realized what a fool he had been.
"You’ve been married for years and yet, you hid it from me."
"I’m not..." he was about to deny it, but this time, the slap was from Alex. Bennet toppled over and fell harshly, his face down.
A relief sigh escaped Sadie for the fact that she was not the one at the receiving end of the beatings this time around.
"What the fuck! What did I do to you?" Bennet complained, slowly rising to his feet.
"You were married and yet, kept it from me. You constantly abused the poor woman and raped her as you liked, true or false?"
Bennet stared at Sadie, his gaze dark, but then confusion masked his anger. How on earth could Sadie have come into contact with Violet? It was impossible.
"Look, you are mistaking. You are the only woman in my life." Another slap met his cheek, turning it red like tomatoes.
Thanks to Alex, he already had a black eye to complement the slaps.
"You are still lying to me, but you just wait until I get her a lawyer. Tell me, how much did you pay her for alimony?" Violet asked, Bennett felt like he was caught in a trap with no way of escape.
Passersby stared strangely at him before leaving to wherever they were headed.
"I’m sorry I lied to you, but I paid her very well in alimony. I gave her half a million, a two-bedroom house, and a car. Isn’t it enough?"
Violet was taken aback by the revelation and stared at Sadie, but the latter shook her head. "It’s not true."
Knowing that he might lose everything, Bennet acted fast. "You idiotic woman. Have you checked your bank account?"
Just as Sadie fished for her phone, Bennet made the transfer. "I just saw the alert. I didn’t know of it before," Sadie said honestly. Violet smiled. This was easier than she thought.
"You mentioned a car and house, so where are they?" She sent a text message on her phone, and the lawyer she prepared beforehand arrived. "My lawyer would confirm if everything has indeed been transferred to your ex-wife."
Bennet was scratching his head nervously. Perhaps he should have stuck to his low-life wife, rather than the high-class woman he wanted to marry who knew her rights.
That was how he transferred one of his cars and a house to his ex-wife after giving her the money. freёweɓnovel.com
"I hope you won’t come for everything later. I can take care of myself. No need to accompany me," Sadie said, eager to leave, but Violet stopped her.
"Don’t worry. I will pay a bodyguard to protect you, but here. Your ex-husband has some money in our joint account, and it’s all yours now.
"No way," Bennet raged, his eyes red. That money was his last hope and the reason why he freely transferred everything to Sadie. But now, it was as if Violet was trying to scam him.
