Chapter 8: Chapter 8

Amanda was angry.

But her mood quickly lifted upon remembering that they had indeed divorced.

“Well, that’s great news! You finally got rid of her.

She’s just an orphan.

How could she be worthy of my excellent son? She should have returned to where she belonged a long time ago.

”

Despite his mother’s excitement, Nathaniel remained stoic.

He couldn’t shake off the strange mix of guilt and agitation he felt in his heart.

Back then, he anticipated that Lucinda would put up a fight if he proposed a divorce, so he had prepared three million dollars in compensation and a villa for her.

But in the end, she was the one who asked for a divorce first and she didn’t even ask for anything in compensation.

Now that they were divorced, Lucinda had no family or financial support.

How was she going to survive?

Nathaniel pushed those thoughts aside.

In his mind, Lucinda would come back to him when she had no one else to turn to.

Lucinda hailed a taxi and headed back to the villa where she had lived with Nathaniel.

The past three years had been quite a struggle.

The memories weighed heavily on her heart that she didn’t want to dwell on them any longer.

Lucinda walked past the small garden in front of the villa’s gate and headed upstairs to pack her things.

She couldn’t wait to get out of there and leave behind all the memories of her troubled past.

But just as she made her way back downstairs, a stunning woman was in the hall, staring at her.

It was Eleanor, dressed in a beautiful white dress.

“Lucinda, long time no see.

”

Lucinda was surprised.

She never thought she would see Eleanor there.

Nathaniel must have given her the key to the villa right after they got divorced, Lucinda thought.

It was evident that he was smitten by her.

Lucinda felt a wave of disgust but kept a smile on her face as she walked elegantly down the stairs.

Her graceful demeanor caught Eleanor’s attention, causing her to pause for a moment.

With a smile on her face, Eleanor remarked, “It’s only been a few years since I last saw you, but you’re becoming more elegant by the day, Like a true Mrs.

Roberts.

Wait, scratch that.

” Eleanor covered her mouth and smiled awkwardly.

”

I forgot that you divorced Nate.

You’re no longer his wife.

”

Lucinda remained calm despite knowing that Eleanor’s words were intended to provoke her.

In fact, she even had a broad smile as she said, “I don’t want him anymore, so I dumped him.

He’s all yours now.

But don’t rush into marrying him too quickly, or people might see you as the other woman who ruined our marriage.

”

Eleanor’s face turned cold and fierce.

“Nate and I love each other deeply.

If it weren’t for you, we would have been together long ago.

You’re the other woman in our relationship who deserves to be hated!”
