Beyond the Divorce

In The Public Eye I heard screams and curses from the room across the hall.

Flashes from cameras flickered relentlessly.

People were still squeezing in.

I panicked and lifted my dress as I was swept into the room with the crowd.

It was chaotic inside.

Two naked bodies curled up, the woman’s head buried behind the man, screaming nonstop.

The man shielded the naked woman while pointing at the people taking pictures.

“All of you get out!” A defiant Lauren stepped on the large blanket that should have been on the bed.

Two others were at her side, standing on a pile of clothes.

I stood there, dumbfounded, staring at the scene before me.

The man was none other than Matthew, who was celebrating our anniversary with me.

He was looking great in a sharp suit just moments ago.

Now, he was exposed to everyone.

The woman was none other than my sister–in–law, Melanie.

She was dressed elegantly today, but she was utterly repulsive now.

Lauren stood smugly with her arms crossed, directing the chaos.

“Keep shooting, take more! Adjust your angles.

Go over there! Get them apart and capture that slut’s face.” A fierce woman rushed forward and yanked Melanie away Melanie tried to resist, but she was slapped several times.

Her hair was pulled back, and they forcefully turned her face toward the camera.

“Lauren, do you even realize what you’re doing?” Matthew shouted at Lauren.

“You don’t know what I’m doing?! I’m just giving you a taste of your own medicine.

Why? Aren’t you protecting her? Come on, then! So, she’s the one you fancy? Hahaha! Your taste is certainly bold! Everyone, keep shooting! I guarantee it’ll go viral!” “Let her go… Get out… I want to see who dares to keep taking- Matthew’s sentence ended abruptly.

I was already standing on the side of the bed, and our eyes locked.

Everyone followed his gaze and stared at me in silence.

I stood there and just stared at the two people on the bed.

The murmurs started.

“Hey! Isn’t that girl his sister?” Goodness gracious, what’s going on? He’s with his sister?” “Stop talking, his wife’s here.

Look, if it were me, I’d be livid “How shameless of him.

He has such a nice, beautiful wife, yet he does this with h his own… Matthew is truly beyond belief!” “Yeah! It’s too much! And they still wanted to celebrate their anniversary? Were they just acting earlier? He should be an actor!” Their harsh words stung.

Matthew stared blankly at me like a stone.

Then, suddenly, he seemed to snap back to reality.

Frantically, he searched for something to cover himself.

I never thought he would be unfaithful after swearing oaths of devotion to me for days and promising to live happily together.

There were guests downstairs celebrating for us, and the host was having sex with someone else.

He must be desperate to stoop to this level.

It was truly astonishing. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

I don’t know who brought Matthew’s parents in.

Grace burst into tears, and Matthew stared blankly at the scene before him.

My stomach churned, and I couldn’t keep the nausea at bay.

Someone reached out to support me.

Gritting my t teeth, I suppressed my reaction.

I watched Matthew step backward, desperately looking for something to hide behind.

It felt like someone was trying to grab me.

I violently shook off the hand, not caring who it was.

At that moment, I didn’t want anyone to touch me.

The lobby was packed with people running to the elevator as I ran down the stairs.

They all knew something had happened upstairs.

I desperately searched for my daughter through the crowd.

I saw Ivanna holding her, both heading anxiously toward the elevator.

I took my daughter from Ivanna and ran outside.

My long dress nearly tripped me.

I put my daughter down and tore my dress frantically.

The embedded rhinestones clattered everywhere.

I ripped the dress into a shorter length.

Ivanna followed us out.

“Chloe, what’s going on? Talk to me!” Take me home!” I begged, my trembling lips barely forming the words.

Arlas came running after.

“Chloe!” “Go away I don’t want to see you!” I shouted at Atlas.

Ava started walling
