Ex-Husband Got Crazy When I Disappear

Chapter 123 Marlons sharp words left Hayden sprechless .

In the past , love was a concept he neither understood nor sought to express For him , the idea of confessing his feelings now felt impossibly daunting I never expected Hayden to say anything kind , she thought , brushing off his hand with frustration .

She turned decisively and prepared to leave with Marlon .

Its just one dance , she thought to herself .

Even if everyones watching , whats the big deal ? But deep down , she e knew lingering here w would only complicate things further .

On the stage above , Joanna sat stiffly beside the pianist , John , as arranged by her mother , Sophia .

Her gaze , however , kept darting through the crowd until she spotted Hayden gripping Yvonnes hand , refusing to let go .

Her Ests clenched , nails digging into her palms John had been ready for a while .

Noticing her distraction , he leaned over and gently reminded her , Shall we begin ? Snapping back to the present , Joannas fingers grazed the piano keys , her movements besitant and disjointed .

From the audience , Sophia frowned , calling softly , Joanna focus ! Taking a shaky breath , Joanna began the dum Johns experienced hands danced across the keys , weaving music that masked her mistakes seamlessly .

Meanwhile , Marlon took advantage of Haydens momentary distraction , leading Yvonne to the dance Boor .

The lights swirled around them , reflecting the tension in the air .

Hayden , regaining his composure , tensed as Yasir approached with a teasing grin .

This isnt like you at all , he remarked casually .

What is like me supposed to mean ? Hayden retoned , his jawline tight with suppressed frustration .

He could barely stand the sight of Yvonne in another mans arms .

Yasir semirked knowingly , tapping his chin .

You never cared what your wife did before .

But now ! Youre practically seething with jealousy .

Just a tip .

though jealousy isnt a good look on you Everyone here tonight is either from the Parker Group or connected to them , so if this blows up , tomorrows headlines are inevitable .

Although these issues dont really really affect Hayden , its always better to avoid unnecessary trouble .

Haydens gaze sharpened , focusing intently on Yvonne and Marlon.

He muttered under his breath , Jealous ? Is this what jealousy feels like ? He thought , How dare Marlon have his hand around her waist ! And she had smiled at Marlon Hayden suddenly clenched his teeth , feeling an unexpected spark ignite inside him , making him restless and uneasy .

So this is what jealousy feels like ? Yasir arched a brow , clearly amused .

Wait … are you telling me youre just figuring this outt After being married so long ? Instead of responding , Hayden countered , Why am I jealous ? It obvious Yasir replied with a hint of exasperation .

Because you like her .

If she didnt matter , you wouldnt be bothered As he said this , Yasir carefully watched every subtle expression on Haydens face .

He was really curious how someone could be married for so long and not know what jealousy feels like If anyone else asked something like that , he wouldnt believe them .

But this was Hayden … ..

after all .

Having been sealed by the rosary bracelet for so many years , its quite possible he didnt know what love was .

Yet Hayden didnt ask anything more .

The sight ignited a fire inside him , a flame that burned away every shred of logic .

Rationality escaped him he only knew he had to win back his Woman ! On the dance floor .

Marlon twirled me around , each movement synced perfectly with the music .

It was as if every cell in my body vibrated to the rhythm , a peculiar yet exhilarating sensation .

I didnt expect you to be such a graceful dancer, Marlon murmured near my ear , his voice low and intimate .

We were d were close ton close .

I felt a thicker of unease but quickly masked it .

My mother adored waltzing I replied softly .

She often danced with me , Over time , it became second nature My mother taught me many things , some of which have carved themselves deeply into my soul , I thought to myself , a bittersweet smile rugging at my lips Your mother did a remarkable job raising you Marlon complimented , a genuine smile lighting his face .

Remarkable ? I chuckled bitterly , mocking myself .

She raised a hopeless romantic .

If anything .

I must have been a disappointment .

In the past , when love consumed me , it felt right .

But now , looking back , I realize how foolish 1 had been .

How naive and blind I was back then , I thought Before I could allow further , Marlon interrupted my self deprecation with unexpected reassurance .

Being a romantic means you love with purity , sincerity , and courage .

His words stunned me .

I sured at him , my disbelief evident Nobody had ever ever praised me for my unrelenting love .

I didnt know whether to laugh or cry Just as I struggled for a response , my eyes caught sight of Hayden striding purposefully towards as My thoughts froze .

What is he doing ? I wondered , my mind racing with a hundred scenarios in mere seconds .

Before I could react , Hayden had reached us .

With a cold , unyielding gaze , he grabbed my wrist and yanked me out of Marlons arms .

Come with me he commanded , his voice icy and simmering with anger .

I barely had time to process his words before he pulled me away Marlon , seemingly stunned , didnt stop him .

Perhaps he , too , couldnt believe what he had just witnessed .

Who would have thought that the ever composed and restrained Hayden would act so impulsively ! By the time Marlon snapped out of his daze and prepared to follow us , Yasir appeared , blocking his way with a casual smile .

Let the couple handle their own matters Yasir advised lightly .

Theres no need for outsiders to interfere He was Haydens close buddy , so of course , hed lend a hand in this situation .

Marlon was a step too slow , and the two people ahead disappeared onto the dance floor .

Marlon frowned , his displeasure evident , but Yasirs relaxed stance made it clear he wasnt moving Youre telling me someone like Hayden actually has feelings? Marlon sneered .

Why wouldnt her Yasir shrugged , his tone tinged with amusement .

Hes human , and humans have emotions .

Its just that Hayden has always been ……… ..

Slow ! Didnt seem that way when he was with Joanna .

He was anything but slow If he were truly clueless about emotions , how could he have strayed ? Marlon added , his voice laced with disdain .

Your hesitated , glancing towards the stage where Joanna was playing the piano .

Hayden had once mentioned her talent , but listening now , Yasir couldnt help but feel it was a little … underwhelming .

In the narrow , dimly lit hallway , I finally stumbled to a halt , too exhausted in keep up with Haydens pace .

I yanked my wrist , trying to free myself .

Let go of me ! I demanded .

Hayden didnt reply .

Instead , he turned abruptly and pressed me against the cold wall , 3/3
