Chapter 80 Finally Getting a Divorce
Stella Grace was very calm, her pure eyes were emotionless. She looked at Frederick Addington faintly. “This has nothing to do with him. I do not like him, do not jumble up my affairs with him.” Stella Grace said.
Frederick Addington’s lips curved upwards, his eyes was checking Stella Grace out. “Are you trying to protect him or are you afraid of me? I’m shocked and surprised to know that I hold a special place in your heart.” Frederick Addington said.
“I’m just telling the truth. I couldn’t even see the true colours of a person I knew for four years, let alone a person that I’ve known for just one month. I know what I want.” Stella Grace said rationally.
“It’s good that you’re thinking that way. I should warn you, never fall in love with Jasper, because he will never fall in love with you. He’s in love with someone else.” Frederick Addington said firmly.
Stella Grace and looked at him as her eyes glided downwards. There was no expression on her face, she was exhausted. “Let’s talk about us. You’ll be screwed if I published this video.” Stella Grace said.
“How can I be screwed?” Frederick Addington asked while he took a sip of his coffee gracefully.
He was too calm and steady, and it was petrifying.
“Your future in politics, isn’t it? As a married man, you’re still having relationships with other women. Will you be convinced after watching this video?” Stella Grace asked while she played the video and handed it to him.
Frederick Addington glanced at the video which was 30 minutes in length. It was shot after he was released from the police station last night.
An idea flashed through his eyes. “You installed a hidden camera in the bathroom.” Frederick Addington said.
Stella Grace lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes blocked her glowing eyes.
The hidden camera was installed by Felicia Chuck.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
However, she didn’t want to destroy the relationship between Felicia Chuck and him, so she took the blame.
“Let’s get a divorce, Frederick. The video you have about Eli also concerns me. You will not want this to be published to the Internet, me neither. All I wanted was to live a peaceful life. I will not ruin your future.” Stella Grace said softly.
“Ah!” Frederick Addington exclaimed as he placed his coffee on the table. The coffee almost splahed out of the mug. “Didn’t Jasper inform you? I’ve resigned. Do you think I’m afraid of your video?” Frederick Addington asked.
Stella Grace was stunned. “Did you resign?” Stella Grace asked in shock.
Frederick Addington tapped on the table gently. “I didn’t like being the Deputy Chief of the Health Department. Does it sound strange to you?” Frederick Addington asked.
Stella Grace felt defeated and hopeless, as if her whole body was splashed with cold water.
She was so close to being relieved, but despite all the efforts, she looked like a clown in front of Frederick Addington.
She felt aggrieved because she tried her best, but all the efforts were in vain.
Tears rolled down her eyes, yet she was horribly empty inside.
“Frederick, in the next life, I wish I never knew you, I wish I never fell in love with you.” Stella Grace said while she kept her cell phone and stood up.
“Stop right there.” Frederick Addington yelled, frowning at her.
Her tears touched him from the bottom of his heart.
“Why are you crying?” Frederick Addington asked in confusion.
Stella Grace smiled.
She shouldn’t have cried.
What’s the point of crying? It not going to solve her problem.
“You will never understand the lives of people like us, struggling to live. I don’t think I owe you anything. If this is not enough, take my life. At least my soul will be free.” Stella Grace said coldheartedly and walked towards the door.
Frederick Addington held her in his arms and squinted his eyes, examining her pale face. “What do you mean by that?” Frederick Addington asked.
Stella Grace took a deep breath and eyed at Frederick Addington.
He was handsome, yet he had a devil in his heart.
“I felt exasperated. Perhaps I made too many mistakes in my past life, therefore I’m fated to be unhappy in my life. I don’t need you to remember me, but you will always owe me. Karma will strike you in your next life.” Stella Grace shook off Frederick Addington’s hand.
He held her tightly, unwilling to let go.
Stella Grace was numbed by the pain and looked at him dispassionately.
“Why do you want a divorce? I can give you a comfortable life and enough money. Aren’t these enough? You even own the title of Mrs. Addington. You have more than what Felicia has. Why do you want to die?” Frederick Addington asked, he was confounded.
“I don’t need money given by others. I need money that I earn by myself, so that I feel no qualms when I’m spending it. I want loyalty in my marriage. I want to feel the peace in my heart, and the warmth of a real home when I go home, not the dreariness I’m feeling now.” Stella Grace explained while she smiled bitterly. “You will never understand, and you will never know how to love.”
“Do you know how to love? You told me that you love me, yet you are messing around with Jasper. Is that how you love?” Frederick Addington asked outrageously. He finally revealed his true emotions.
“If I didn’t love you, why would I be so sad? When I saw you with another woman, I was heartbroken. I used to only have you in my heart. Yet, every action you did stung me so deeply like a knife slicing my heart, making me into a person that no longer knows how to love. Do you think I still have the ability to fall in love with someone else? No. I don’t even know what is the purpose of living!” Stella Grace was agitated, as if her blood vessels just burst.
She felt that she was extremely ferocious.
Frederick Addington stared at Stella Grace blankly. “The other women who are with me are willing to share me with other women. They will not be upset, they’re just like sisters.” Frederick Addington explained.
Stella Grace was left speechless.
Frederick Addington would never understand how his actions hurt her so deeply.
Perhaps she shouldn’t have feelings towards him.
She turned her head away.
She thought she wouldn’t cry again, yet she couldn’t help crying. This is too much for her.
She cried her heart out. This was all her tears suppressed in the past 3 years.
“Go get your other women then.” Stella Grace said, she wanted to laugh but she couldn’t.
She should not put the blame on Frederick Addington.
She should put the blame on herself instead.
She was the one who fell in love with him, but all he wanted was nothing more but pleasure.
She wanted to keep her dignity until the very end.
Frederick Addington fixed his eyes on Stella Grace. He felt a little heartache.
He did not want Stella Grace to die.
“Let’s get a divorce.” Frederick Addington said in a deep voice.
Stella Grace looked at Frederick Addington in astoundment. Her eyes were red and swollen.
She could not believe that he would agree to a divorce.
“However, I have a request. You have to meet me twice a week for least three hours. Don’t worry, I will not touch you if you’re not willing. There are lots of women who are willing to do that, and I don’t have the patience to persuade you. However, when I call you, you must meet me in the place I set.” Frederick Addington said in a deep tone.
He did not know why he would make such a ridiculous offer.
Perhaps, he was worried that he would never see her again.
The request would mean that they would see each other twice a week.
He didn’t want to stop seeing her.
