Ex-Husband Got Crazy When I Disappear

Chapter 5 Hayden despised me .

There was no way he would have carried me .

Plus , I had no recollection of even going to the guest room last night .

I thought it through and asked skeptically , Are you sure ? I remember falling asleep on the cou- Suddenly , I caught myself and quickly stopped .

If others found out that Hayden and I were sleeping separately , who knew what kind of gossip would start ? The servant looked a bit confused but spoke confidently , I was on duty that night , and I saw you go to the guest room at midnight .

Later , Mr.

Hayden Parker came to carry you back .

Maybe you should check the guest room for your hairpin As soon as she finished , 1 hurried to the guest room and spotted my hairpin on the nightstand .

So , maybe I sleepwalked last night , and then Hayden carried me back ? No , that seemed way too unlikely .

With my mind racing .

I made my way downstairs , only to run into Nevin out of the blue .

I heard youre thinking about divorcing Hayden ? Thats quite bold of you to think you can make threats , he sneered , his eyes dripping with disdain and sarcasm .

Its none of your business , I retorted , trying to sidestep him , having no intention of engaging in this conversation .

Nevin blocked my way .

Are you just playing hard to get again? With your lack of life skills , once youre divorced , do you think you can survive without Haydens money ? Why wouldnt I be able to make it on my own ! I frowned , irritated .

Did he think divorced women have to wait around to fade away ? What century did he think this was ? Oh ! Besides bothering Hayden , have you ever accomplished anything meaningful ! Nevin rested his chin on his hand , pretending to think deeply .

My heart clenched .

For the past ten years , my life had revolved around Hayden , and everything I had done was about him .

But now , nothing to me , and so did the Parker family .

he meant I glared at Nevin , the memories of the humiliation hed inflicted over the past year fresh in my mind .

Anger welled up inside me , and I bit out .

I havent divorced Hayden yet .

Youd better show me some respect .

Nevin froze , his eyes widening in disbelief before he burst into laughter .

What ? You want respect ? Do you even deserve i put someone in the If youre unsure , you can ask Xander, I said , holding his gaze without flinching , mirroring his scorn .

And by the way , you p hospital six months ago , and I helped you out .

You havent even thanked me .

He bellowed , I never asked for your help .

You just buit into my Really ? I bet the guy who got beaten up still holds a grudge against you .

Should I go talk to him ? I retorted , my tone as icy as winter .

Nevins expression changed completely .

I dont believe you would actually go to him .

You … Before he could finish , I turned on my heel and walked away Yvonne , are you insane ? How dare you talk to me like that ? Nevins glare pierced the air , his voice booming .

Yer , his words only echoed into the silence of the empty living room Seething .

Nevin stormed into the company to find Hayden .

You think somethings up with Yvonne ? Shes acting like a whole new person .

Hayden was hunched over his desk , swamped with paperwork , scribbling signatures on documents .

Without lifting his gaze , he queried , Whyd you go to her ! I ran into her at the Parker residence , Nevin explained , slowing down as you , His eyes were locked on Hayden , eager to catch every detail as he continued .

I heard she went to see Grandpa , probably about divorcing Haydens hand , holding the Montblanc pen .

Troge .

What did Grandpa say ? he asked calmly , his lips barely parting Nevin was about to reply when a burst of laughter rang out from beyond the door .

Is Yvonne planning to divorce you , Hayden ? Didnt see that corning .

You getting dumped is a new one .

Hayden looked up casually , his charming eyes flicking toward the door as a cold glint crossed his face .

The newcomer strolled in , at ease in a white casual suit and sporting a sly grin 1/2 Dreame Read Romance Stories Installed 2/2 2:29 PM c Chapter 5 Yasir ! Long time no see ! Nevin recognized him and jumped to his feet , his excitement palpable .

Yasir Gibson was an old buddy of Haydens , but they were like night and day .

Yasir was all about eating , drinking , and having a good time , which made him a breeze to hang out with for Nevin , You little troublemaker , I heard you invited Yvonne to the welcome party ! Tsk , you are really bad .

You knew Hayden had brought back his side piece- Yasir Gibson , Hayden interrupted , his tone laced with a clear warning .

Yasir quickly got serious , rubbing his nose awkwardly .

Sorry , just a slip .

But what about Joanna ? Whats your relationship with her ? He wasnt really aware of Haydens business overseas .

Hed only heard about th obligations .

After days of curiosity , hed finally decided to stop by .

the welcome party after the fact , unable to make it because of other What do you think ! Hayden replied coldly , his tone icy , Yasir almost shivered at the frost in Haydens words , his gaze flicking to the rosary bracelet on Haydens wrist .

Youve always seered clear of women , and even after getting hitched , you kept your distance from your wife .

So , hearing that theres a woman in your life now its like a twist out of a fairy tale , he explained .

In high society , it was rare to find someone without a taste for indulgence .

If anyone else had an affair after marriage , it would seem normal .

However , Hayden was renowned for his asceticism and was widely believed to be disinterested in women .

As Yasir anxiously awaited Haydens response , Hayden suddenly asked , Who said I dont even touch my wife ? Yasir and Nevin gaped at each other , their looks exchanging a shared disbelief at Haydens words .

Finally , Nevin stammered .

Everyone in town knows you kicked Yvonne out of the room on your wedding night .

Youve never given a damn about her .

How could you be interested in her now ! Haydens handsome features darkened , his voice edged with a menacing tone .

How would outsiders know about my personal affairs ! Did you spread it ? Nevin froze , feeling the air freeze in his lungs as he thought .

Why is Hayden so furious ? The reason was plain as day .

Haydens usually serene eyes were now ablaze with fury .

If I catch wind of such rumors again , youll be out of the Parker family .

Tunderstand .

Nevin shuddered , beads of cold sweat dotting his forehead .

Get out ! Hayden harked , his irritation palpable .

He might not have cared for Yvonne , but this was a family matter it wasnt decent to air it out Nevin was so frightened that he quickly slipped away .

Yasir let out a dramatic sigh .

Oh , poor Yvonne , Shes been so devoted to you .

Since you left a year ago , who knows how many cold stares shes had to deal with ? What do you mean Hayden frowned , a hint of confusion crossing his face
