CHAPTER 13
ADAM’S POV
Sophia and I are finally at the restaurant. Frankly speaking, do not want to be here, but I am compelled to. Sophia thinks that carrying my child means that she owns me and this is something I despise when women try to take control of my life and me.
Here is Sophia, sitting in front of me, in a revealing dress that makes her look slutty. How I wish that the management could have had a dress code and not let us in, that would have been great. This so–called date could have been avoided. Unfortunately, nothing like that happened.
“I’m glad that we can enjoy this moment like the old days,” Sophia says.
I just nod. I am unbothered by the past I have left behind and here she is, trying to take me on the same track. She is not stupid and she somehow feels that I am not into her for a long time but she is forcing herself on me. I love kids, but that does not mean that I shall be her slave. What she does not know is that I am capable of being a single dad and chopping her off from my life if she dares to be pushy.
I see her lips moving but I am not with her. I find her so boring now. And I want to get out of here. I huff and suddenly, when I turn my gaze, I notice a familiar figure passing by. A beautiful lady in fancy clothes and that side profile of hers, I can immediately recognize even from a crowd.
“Aria?!” I say to myself.
She is heading towards the restroom and I need to get a closer look.
“Excuse me, Sophia… I need to go to the restroom,” I excuse myself, get up and walk away instantly, without waiting for her response.
All I hear behind me is, “Adam, wait..”
I quickly pace through the corridor, until I get a good glance at the lady in front of me. I see her the woman who crashed my world. I immediately surprise and block her near the restroom, by pulling her in the corner.
“What the heck!!!” Aria shouted at me.
Aria is struggling although I do not hold her tightly and now she is really getting on my nerves.
“Stop fighting me, Aria!” I lash out.
“Leave me! How dare you touch me!” Aria exclaims angrily
“I can! You’re still my wife!” I say and don’t let go of her.
I press her against the wall so that she does not escape. With so much difficulty I found her and now I am not going to let her go. Today is my lucky day and I shall make the most of it.
“Didn’t you receive the signed divorce papers already?!” Ana snaps at me, emphasizing on the word signed.
“I will NOT sign the papers!!! You’re coming back home with me!” I proclaim, pulling her closer to me.
“You have lost all your rights on me! I am going nowhere with you!” she scoffs and tries to get away.
Her words hit me really badly and I lose my tongue. She looks like she is so done with me. I can see the hate in her beautiful eyes. I cannot overlook her expensive dress and how she has bloomed after leaving me. I feel like a stab in my heart.
“I miss yo
iss you, Arla, please come back,” I finally say the word I have never had the guts to utter in the past. I fondle

her lovely soft cheek.
She does not look fazed by my words and she pushes my hand away from her pretty face. This is something she has never done before.
“You don’t want me anymore?! Have you found a new sugar daddy?!” I grit as I say those words.
Aria looks at me in the eyes and says, “It’s none of your fucking business!”
She swears at me for the very first time and I am baffled. Just then, to my shock, my uncle, Regis, appears out of nowhere. Aria is still stuck between the wall and me.
“What are you doing, Adam?! Let her go!” My uncle warns,
“You’re together?!” I ask, rather taken aback.
The shock makes me set Aria free, unconsciously and I see her walking to my uncle.
“What the fuck?! What’s cooking between them?!” I curse inwardly.
