Chereads / President Rhyley Pampered Wife / Chapter 2 - Chapter Two

Chapter 2 - Chapter Two

"Everyone thinks you are innocent and meek but what they do not know is that you are a terrible person and vicious woman," he spat at her.

"I want nothing to do with you, murderer; let's divorce," he added and Georgia got agitated as she shook her head vigorously.

"That's not what happened Logan, listen to me. That's not what happened. I didn't even touch her. I was already at the door before she yelled, '' Georgia argued back. She definitely couldn't afford to lose him. Her eyes stared back at him, pleading and begging.

"Even if Tricia wasn't here and this didn't happen. I would still divorce you," Logan told her and Georgia could feel her heart breaking into pieces.

"Don't do it. I would not come to see Tricia again; I would stay away from her and not do anything. I'll be quiet like before and not do anything. Don't let us divorce, okay?" Georgia said, grabbing one of his hands but Logan flung her away once more.

"How many times do I have to tell you not to touch me randomly?" Logan asked, his eyes showing disgust and irritation.

"Now that my true love is back, why should we still remain together?" he asked and Georgia realized that she had no answer for him.

"Our marriage was a contract anyway; let's end it. You never even matched my status," Logan added and Georgia swallowed her saliva.

"Did you really... did you really have no feelings for me?" Georgia asked, finally deciding to bet on everything she could bet on.

"Do you really feel nothing for me? We spent a year together; did you really not fall in love with me during that time? Aren't you treating me too cruelly? I was your wife for a year!" Georgia cried out her emotions in shambles and disarray.

Logan turned to her and rubbed his forehead for a moment. He hadn't meant to treat her like this or divorce her like this. The situation had changed and so he couldn't help himself.

"Logan." Tricia cried out in a pitiful voice and Logan turned to her, smiling softly.

"I'll let my lawyer prepare the divorce papers. You'll get a hundred million dollars as alimony and I hope you won't appear in front of me again. I would also let this stunt you pulled with Tricia go; you should be grateful that I haven't called the police," he said indifferently before walking into the ward and pressing Tricia's head to his shoulder, muttering words that Georgia couldn't hear. She could see Tricia's smug and smiling eyes through the space in Logan's arms.

For a long time, Georgia remained on the ground, unable to move or think. Everything she had worked so desperately for in the past year was just taken away with just a sweet voice and a coy person. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't win his love; no matter how hard she tried, she wouldn't get him to look at her twice even if she was wearing the most gorgeous clothes in the whole world, and no matter what she did, there was no way on earth she was going to get this man to love her.

The reality seemed to smash Georgia right in the face and she felt lost for a while. She dragged her feet towards the visitors lounge and sat down, staring into space. It was the truth that she refused and stubbornly failed to admit for the past year and now she had come to terms with it—way too quickly—that her head felt light for a moment.

Chuckling lightly, she pulled herself to her feet and dusted her clothes before turning to glance towards the ward; the door was already closed and Georgia knew that she had lost that man forever. She chuckled again as she turned and started walking away. Her parents, after all, hadn't brought her up this way to so desperately beg for one's love and get zero in return. It was time to walk away, as far away as possible. She chuckled again and started walking towards the elevator.

"Since you can't get him to love you, let's get back something else that belongs to you," she said to herself as she pressed the elevator button. 

The woman who stepped into the elevator looked nothing like the woman who had just been embarrassed a few minutes before; she excluded elegance and class; her eyes were sharp and unbothered; and there was this air about her that screamed, 'Don't get close.'. The nurses that stepped in with her kept glancing back at her with giggles and whispers that Georgia couldn't bother herself with.

—---------------------------------------------------

Tricia turned to Logan as soon as she was sure that Georgia had left and burrowed further into his embrace. She wore a wrongful expression and Logan chuckled at her expression.

"What is it again?" he asked and Tricia pursed her lips.

"Is it okay for you? To divorce like that?" Tricia asked, biting on her lips and feigning concern.

"I feel like I'm coming in between the two of you," Tricia said quietly.

"I don't want to be..." Tricia added but she didn't get to complete her statement when Logan stopped her.

"Tricia, you are not coming in between me and Georgia. There's nothing between us. I gave her money—a million to get married to me," Logan said and Tricia turned to him with mock surprise.

"Really? I thought she... I thought she really loved you!" Tricia exclaimed and Logan sneered.

"Georgia? Love me? She probably loves my money," Logan said, his eyes full of disgust.

"I met her when I was involved in an accident last year. She was one of the random nurses that were assigned to me. She was quiet and weak and so to get Mom off my back, I offered her money to marry me and she did," Logan added.

"There's absolutely nothing in between us," Logan continued, disgust and irritation radiating off his body.

"I thought she really did love you," Tricia whispered, burrowing back into Logan's arms with a hint of a smile on her face.
