Revenge After Divorce Novel by Black Rose

OLIVIA

I wished he did. I didn’t even know why he didn’t come to the prison to serve me with those divorce papers. I waited for him to come: I was ready. Why didn’t he do it? “No, but I want to divorce him, you can tell him to bring the divorce papers and I will sign them.”

wanted nothing to do with that man, ever again. All I wanted was for him to release me and set me free. Those divorce papers will free me from him. My mother–in–law didn’t ask any more questions after that.

We drove to their house; it still looked the same as I remember it. * Do you still not want anything to eat?” I shook my head no. “I am not hungry, but I would like to rest.” She nodded. My father–in–law has been quiet all this time. “You know where your room is. Go and rest.

I didn’t want to sleep in the same room I used to share with Nick when we came to visit. “Can I please use another room and can l borrow your phone please. I would like to make a call.”

“Sure, choose any room you like and here is my phone. Don’t worry, I will get you one tomorrow.” I thanked her then walked up the stairs. The chose the first guest room far from the room Nick and I used.

I sat on the bed and made a call to Ethan, I wanted to know how my baby was doing. It rang a couple of times before his voice came on the line. “Mrs Jone, to what to I owe the pleasure of receiving your call this evening?” he thought it was Nick’s mother calling.

“Ethan, it’s me.” There was silence on the other end of the line to a point that I thought he cut the call. “Ethan?”

“Olivia, is that really you?” I nodded as if he could see e. “Yes, Ethan, it’s me.”

“When did you get out, where are you, are you alright, oh God Olivia, tell me where you are, and I will come for you.” I appreciated his concern. “I am fine Ethan, am with my in laws. How’s…” I went to the door and looked out to make sure his parents were still downstairs. I didn’t want them knowing about Samuel either.

“How’s Simuel?” I missed my son so much. “I just came back. yesterday from seeing him. he has grown so much Olivia and he is smart and very handsome.” I teared up, I missed so much in his life.” Thank you, Ethan, for everything you did for me and for taking care. of him. One day I will be able to repay you for your kindness.”

“Nonsense, I didn’t do any of it to be repaid. We are friends Olivia, and I would do anything for you. does Nick know you are out?” I didn’t care whether he knew or not. That man ruined my life, and I hated him with passion.

“I don’t want to talk about Nick, if you don’t mind.”

“Of course, would you like to see Samuel?” I wanted to, so badly but I needed to get back on my feet again before I could see him. I didn’t want my son to meet a shadow of his mother. I wanted him to see me in a good light and going to see him like this was not a good idea.

“I will see him soon Ethan, I just want to get back on my feet first. I don’t want him to see me like this.” He was silent for a while. “I can help with that, I can give you a job and…” I cut him short, he was Nick’s friend, and he has already done enough for me.

“Thank you, Ethan but I will be fine on my own. I will call again soon.” I cut the call and laid on the bed for a few minutes before getting up and going back downstairs.

My in laws were still sitting there talking. “Mom, here is your phone, thank you.” I handed it to her and went back to my room. I needed to get the hell out of there, that was no longer my home. I needed to get a job and go back to my grandrgother’s house. That was my home

I needed to start over there not at Ethan’s home. Here he could come and go as he pleases. It is his parent’s home, and he was their son. They would not turn him away because of me. I tossed and turned on the bed, but I could not find a comfortable position.

I ended up laying a blanket on the floor, I felt comfortable there, I was no longer used to sleeping on a comfortable bed, I was now used to the hardships of prison. Maybe I will get used to a bed as time goes by. I closed my eyes and tried to fall asleep.

Just as I was drifting off, I heard a noise, and I jumped up. I looked around only to see that it was a branch from the tree outside scratching on the window and making that noise. I went and closed the window.

I was so jumpy because I got used to prison and there when I heard a noise. It was usually my cell door opening, with those guards bringing me food or those animals coming to beat me up for their amusement. I couldn’t sleep after that. Prison ruined me, no. Prison didn’t ruin me, Hick and Sandra did, and I am going to make them pay for it. One way or another.
