After Divorce I Became A Zillionaire

Ava Della Sanchez

They split up immediately they heard my scream and I was able to see the girl’s face, I don’t know but something in me tells me there is something off about the girl. I know it’s not me being jealous because if I can predict right I know how to handle my emotions. I look at Nickolaus and damn! He’s looking at the girl with passion and love like I didn’t just come in here right now. I feel a tightening in my chest as I watch the man I love care for another girl in my presence without even acknowledging my presence after years of not seeing me. “Does he even care?” I ask myself but obviously, that’s the question I can’t answer myself either.

I tried my best to keep my calm as I watched as he whispered something to the girl and she stormed out, bumping her shoulders with me. She doesn’t look like a slut. I’m a woman and I’ve seen their kind and someone like her can use self-pity to get Nickolaus and then do so many things to get him wrapped around her fingers. Only God knows how much damage she’s done to his life. Nicholaus is blinded by love that he can’t see that….Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“Ava” I heard my name from the voice that I’d been dying to hear it from, I came back to reality as I saw him standing before me, right now I don’t feel excited or whatsoever. The scene I saw here earlier is enough to discolor mood. Looking at Nickolas right now I know he will do anything to be with that girl, …..”The wait is this the reason why he never contacted me?” Mmmmm Obviously that’s why.

“Nicholaus, can I ask you something?” I ask and he nodded his head looking unconcerned.

“Is she the reason why you never contacted me, to ask about my opinion?”

“Ava, listen….”

”It’s a simple question Nickolaus answers…” I groan already getting tired

“Yes…. Ava, I love Sherly so much and I can’t live without her” He said, trying to hold my hand but I took two steps back.

“Ohhhh…. Sherly is her name” I thought, smiling.

I look around his office, he is swimming in money, and no wonder that gold digger can’t let him go. I walked around his office admiring every inch of it as he stood on his spot staring at me like a movie, but who cares ….”I wonder what happened for his company to have a problem…. what?” I ask myself. I walk back to him

“What happened to your company?”

“Someone stole my company’s desires and that made us lose so many contracts and clients, lots of shareholders too” He replied looking tired but I know he isn’t because the last time I remembered he was there almost eating that Sherly of a girl.

I nod my head in a thinking manner as I walk around him, “You know Nickolas they say keep your friend close and keep your enemies closer” I said after walking around him, he made to turn around but I ignored him and came to his front… I click my fingers twice for him to see and I dropped the bomb

“Get ready for our wedding or be ready to lose the company you worked so hard for.”

“Ava you can’t do this to me.”

“Nicholaus I’m doing nothing.”

“You don’t understand I don’t love you I’ve someone that I love so much and you know that” I felt a piercing on my chest…. I felt my heart being ripped apart with his words, I closed my eyes and turned my back at him so he won’t be able to see my tears and I whispered.

“Nicholaus, do you think before you talk how you could hurt people with your words without thinking!!!!!!” I screamed.

“Ava….. please” He made to touch me but I fling his hand away, not allowing him to see my weak self. I wipe my tears leaving no drop.

“Well then if you want to see your company fall try me,” I said and started walking out but I could hear his growling as he snatched things and punched the walls. I quickened my steps as I couldn’t take it anymore. I grab the doorknob as I twist it open. I rushed out of his office. I’m already feeling suffocated. I needed to leave this place so I didn’t bother to smile at the receptionist who was calling on me and I rushed out. I hurried and opened my car as I entered. I place my head on my steering as I cry out my eyes. This has always been my biggest fear. I could have given up at this point but I won’t. Seeing the girl he’s dating I knew she had something to do with the missing design and it’s only those who have access to his office could do that. I don’t have to conclude I need evidence. But first of all I need to clear my head right now as I can’t think clearly.

I turned on my car’s ignition and drove to a cool restaurant… I drove for some minutes as I kept on looking through the mirror for an eye-catching restaurant and finally, I saw one. I smile as I drive into the restaurant. I parked my car and came out. I walk towards the receptionist. It’s quite a classy restaurant. I requested a VIP. I needed a cool place to clear my head as a whole lot is going through my head. I was taken to one and I only requested cool wine. I sat down on the classy chair and rubbed my forehead tiredly. I’m having a headache right now and it’s all because of Nickolaus.

I can’t believe he shattered all my hope about us… he forgot me so easily…. but why couldn’t I do the same?

“The heart wants what it wants” My conscience whispered and I nodded, my order arrived.

“Thank you,” I said to the waiter

“You welcome ma, and you look beautiful”

“Thank you and you too” I added, she smiled, and walked off. I get that compliment a lot….

I looked out of the binds that were used as a window and my body froze at what I saw.

Right before me is Sherly kissing and romancing with a man in a suit.
