Authors pov
It's been week Sarah is trying to approach Xavier. Whenever she tries to talk he either ignores her or
tell her that he is busy and don't have time for her.
He was trying to avoid her as much as possible. He was low-key scared that she will break his shell
and make him that weak Xavier again. No matter what she wants to say, he doesn't want to listen.
On other hand Sarah wanted to talk about divorce with him. She wanted to clear things before leaving
but he wasn't ready to listen.
Sarah was sitting in her office thinking about it.
"What should I do... This man is impossible... I need to leave that house but it will be rude to do that
without telling him..."
After thinking for some time she decided to write a letter to him as he has no time for her.
Sarah took a paper and pen and started writing.
'I don't know if you were expecting or thinking about it or not but for me it's a big and important step. I
know you are forced into this marriage and so am I.
When I first saw you, I was really scared of you but time told me that you are not that bad. You have
done so much for me Xavier, more than my family could ever do.
I know it must be hard for you to accept a total stranger girl in your life whom you don't even know and
same is happening with me.
The night we spent together will always be in my mind and soul. It's the only night which I can
remember as most of the part of my life is blur.
I am really thankful that you gave me that memory, I needed that very much. You were like a rain in dry
desert to me and I'll be always grateful for the comfort you gave me.
You are still a stranger to me but you have create a small place in my life which will be unforgettable for
me.
You are rude but a nice guy Xavier, and I don't want to be a burden on you. It will be better if we part
our ways peacefully. That's why I need divorce.
I tried to talk to you about it in person but you are too busy for me so I have no choice but to write a
letter. I wish you a good life ahead. Goodbye.
-Sarah'
She folded the paper and took out Divorce papers. She couldn't understand why but her heart felt Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
heavy while signing it, like her hand can't lift the pen. Her heart was telling her not to do it but mind was
against it.
'its okay Sarah... It's not like this marriage really meant anything and he definitely doesn't care about
this marriage...'
She took a deep breath and signed the papers.
She went to home and her heart was pounding thinking about his reaction. He wasn't in his bedroom
so she went to his study where guard stopped her.
"Ma'am he is busy... I can't let you in... He has given strict orders."
He said blocking her way.
"Okay, just give him these letters... It's important..."
She said handing him the Envelope and the white folded paper.
"Okay I can do that..."
He took the papers and Sarah came back to her room.
The guard knocked on the door and get in. Xavier was talking on the phone standing beside the
window.
"Boss, Mrs. King has send you these papers. She said it's something important..."
Xavier gestured him to place it on the table without looking at him as he was totally focused on the call.
The guard placed the papers on his table and left.
Sarah started packing her bags, there wasn't really anything to pack. Just clothes and few beauty
products. She packed her bags and waited for Xavier to come but he didn't so she head downstairs.
She wanted to meet Ace before leaving but he wasn't there so she asked one of the guard.
"Where is Ace?..."
"He is out of town for some work. He will be back tomorrow..."
The guard replied.
Sarah nodded and head outside thinking she will meet him later. She turned back and looked at the
mansion once again but couldn't see Xavier anywhere.
Her bodyguards kept her bags in trunk.
"Where to ma'am?"
He asked while opening the door for her.
"No, you don't have to work for me anymore. We are getting divorce and it's my last day in this
mansion."
She said and they stepped back nodding. Sarah get in the car and drove towards her apartment with
heavy heart. For some reason she wanted him to stop her, to deny the divorce and take her back. But
she can't really expect that from him. This new beginning didn't felt really exciting.
Xavier finished his call but till then the letter Sarah wrote flew from the desk and fell on the ground due
to wind from the open window, leaving only divorce papers on the table.
Xavier turned around and saw the envelope, he was about to open it but Richard came in at the same
time.
Xavier placed it back on the table and started discussing the business with him.
"Okay... We have to be careful..."
Richard said and Xavier agreed.
He finally took the envelope and opened it.
"Don't know who send this..."
He said unfolding it.
Richard's eyes fell on the white letter which was on the floor.
"What's this?..."
He said picking up. He looked at Xavier but raised his eyebrows when he saw him fuming in anger.
"What happened?"
He asked confused.
"How dare she?..."
Xavier growled and stood up angrily from his chair making it flew back.
Richard looked at him confused as he strode outside angrily. He kept the letter in drawer and closed it.
The letter she wrote remained unread and couldn't serve its purpose while Xavier was seeing red.
