My Blind Wife Wants Divorced

Chloe gave a sarcastic look towards Leonel before returning to the waiter’s friendly gaze.

“Alright, carry on with your work.”

The waiter nodded in understanding and hurriedly left Chloe.

“Damn, bastard!” Chloe grumbled, not liking it, and looked at the cashier with a friendly yet annoyed look. “Do your job properly,” Chloe said coldly, with a smile that seemed to suppress her anger. It was unusual for the boss to behave like that. Even the cashier shivered upon seeing Chloe’s irritated smile.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

The sound of Chloe’s footsteps approaching the table reverberated, but it wasn’t very noticeable due to the crowded café.

“What brings you here?”

It was pointless for Chloe to act coldly, so she decided to be straightforward with the man before her.

Facing Chloe’s harshness didn’t discourage Leonel. Instead, he seemed to enjoy the mocking given by his ex-wife. When was the last time he saw Chloe pout like this? All that came to his mind was Chloe always greeting him with a smile. She never acted harshly, raised her voice, or looked down whenever their eyes met, even if only for a split second.

But now, in front of him, her face appeared flushed with anger. Her gaze refused to accept Leonel’s presence. This man was so careless. Wasn’t his purpose for coming here to meet Chloe?

“Don’t be rude to your husband, Chloe,” Leonel taunted with a slight grin.

Chloe’s fist clenched tightly, indicating she was restraining her anger. If allowed, Chloe would love to punch this arrogant man. I suggest Chloe make an appointment with a karate coach. Muay Thai? Or any other self-defense class? So that if Leonel spoke out of line like before, she wouldn’t hesitate to throw a punch.

“Go away.” Chloe glared coldly at Leonel, hoping he would back down and not return here anytime soon. “I said, leave!” Chloe shouted, drawing the attention of several people, including her employees.

However, Chloe’s threats did not affect Leonel. On the contrary, he seemed even more excited, further fueling Chloe’s anger.

“I don’t want to leave your side, Chloe.”

A teeth grinding was heard, and Chloe wanted to strike this man if she could. But Chloe chose to restrain herself and was about to leave before Leonel stopped her.

“Hey, where are you going? Let’s talk first.”

Chloe turned around, annoyed. “Why should I talk to you? I’m busy,” Chloe replied coldly, then walked away from Leonel.

“Talk to me, or I’ll ruin the reputation of your café.”

Leonel’s threat successfully made Chloe stop. Once again, she turned around, her sharp, irritated gaze directed at her ex-husband. With limited options before Leonel caused trouble, Chloe decided to give in. This time, she would talk to Leonel for the last time.

“Mr. Honorable has become Mr. Threatening? What other media will you use to cover up your lies, just like in the past?” Chloe asked softly. Her gaze was like that of a hungry lion, ready to pounce on Leonel, who responded with a chuckle to her words!

What was going on in Leonel’s mind?

“I just want to talk, Chloe,” Leonel said, leaning back slightly in the chair he was sitting on.

Chloe didn’t say anything, and Leonel understood that perfectly. The fact that Chloe was sitting before him was already a huge relief, even though her face looked angry.

“How are you? Are you okay?” Leonel asked casually while continuing to gaze at Chloe.

Chloe waited to answer. She appeared to moisten her lips to hide her annoyance towards Leonel.

“As you can see, I’m fine.” It was a lie. In reality, Chloe didn’t feel okay. The dark circles around her eyes showed she lacked sleep and rest.

Leonel continued to study Chloe’s face, and she felt uncomfortable under his scrutiny.

“Stop it, don’t stare at me like that,” Chloe said firmly, hoping Leonel would stop gazing at her.

Chloe wasn’t an object in a museum purposely put on display for people to stare at. Chloe was a human being who felt uncomfortable when intensely observed.

“No, I can’t look away from you. You’re too beautiful, Chloe.”

Hearing Leonel’s words made Chloe feel disgusted. There was no joy in hearing those words from him. “You’ve truly lost your sanity!”

Leonel chuckled softly. His gaze still refused to leave Chloe’s figure. Wearing a soft pink long-sleeved blouse, trousers, and moderately high-heeled shoes made his ex-wife look perfect.

“Stop it. You know we’re no longer husband and wife, right? So don’t say disgusting things like that!” Chloe played with her fingers on the table. It was a sign that she felt uncomfortable and wanted to leave soon. Her slightly louder tone was a shield for Leonel to understand that she didn’t like being in this situation.

There was a long pause between them. Leonel seemed lost for words when facing Chloe. Meanwhile, Chloe started to feel restless as she remembered that Darren could arrive anytime. Speaking of Darren, Chloe had forgotten to update him about herself this morning. Usually, Chloe would receive a message from Darren, or she would take the initiative to contact him first.

Damn it, all of this was forgotten because of lack of sleep. All because of one person-Leonel Grisham.

“Is there nothing to talk about? Excuse me-”

“There’s a lot, a lot that I want to discuss with you.”

Leonel’s face no longer bore a smile; his gaze was serious. The downturned corners of his mouth were evidence of it.

Finding herself confronted with such a severe gaze, Chloe fell silent, and her body unconsciously obeyed Leonel’s command. It made Chloe curse herself. ‘Why are you just staying quiet? Move!’ Chloe’s body didn’t respond as she wanted; it remained motionless like a puppet.
