Madam, Your Ex-Husband Is On Call novel Chapter 2

Chapter 2 A Dissolute Woman


After that, Anastasia threw the microphone on the ground, turned around, and left.

There was a dead silence in the venue.

Anastasia and Christian had been married for three years, yet his illegitimate child was two years old.

In other words, in the past three years, Christian didn't come home these three years because he had to care for another woman and their child, not because he was busy with work.

He said he didn't like children and didn't allow Anastasia to bear one.

It turned out that he didn't want her to be the mother of his child.

Thinking of that, Anastasia found that she was a fool in the past few years. She even tried her best to maintain the façade of a happy marriage.

When she walked out of the banquet hall, Anastasia stopped and looked back.

She saw Beatrice go up to comfort Christian with the child in her arms.

Beatrice said to him gently and slowly, "Christian, why did Anastasia leave? Does she not like Charlie?"

Christian said coldly, "Ignore her."

Hearing that, Anastasia sneered.

Christian's indifferent voice seemed to have driven her into an abyss covered with thick snow, torturing her.

To him, she was only a woman who had taken advantage of him to marry him.

Now, she took the initiative to divorce, which was a correct decision, and it was a relief for him.

Anastasia snorted. She looked desperate and decisive with her eyes red.

Turning her head, she strode away from the hotel without hesitation.

Anastasia liked Christian, but it didn’t mean he could trample her again and again.

She would not go down without a fight when her self-esteem was trampled on.

Divorce was not shameful. But it would be shameful that she still tried to help him cover it up when she was aware of his affair and his illegitimate child. It was really ridiculous.

Anastasia had made up her mind that she would fix everything.

***

Anastasia returned to the villa they shared after their wedding.

She had carefully arranged the furnishings to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere for Christian when he returned to the villa.

But now, the huge villa felt empty and devoid of life.

Anastasia remembered how Christian had stayed for just one day and left in a hurry last month.

His return today took her by surprise, as it was a rare occurrence.

Over the past three years, he should have been with Beatrice and their child.

The thought made her feel sick.

She went upstairs to pack her belongings when she heard a knock on the door.

"Mrs. Patterson, Brian is here."

Hearing that, Anastasia paused for a moment before going downstairs.

Beside Brian Vega stood a suitcase, indicating that he had just arrived.

He held a jewelry box and a bouquet of flowers, offering them with a smile.

"Mrs. Patterson, these are gifts that Mr. Patterson prepared for you to celebrate your anniversary."

Anastasia hesitated for a moment before looking up at him.

It suddenly struck her that Brian had always been the one to deliver the anniversary gifts. Now that Christian was busy celebrating his illegitimate child's birthday, it was impossible for him to have have prepared these gifts.

Anastasia sneered but didn't reach out to take them. With disappointment piling up, she had no choice but to accept her own defeat.

"Brian, Christian doesn't even remember what day it is today. You prepared these gifts, didn't you?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Brian's smile faltered for a moment.

Struggling to maintain it, he stuttered, "Mrs. Patterson, it’s, it’s..."

His reaction confirmed her suspicions.

Anastasia felt a weight lifted off her chest as she let out a sigh of relief. She was relieved to have her answer.

She had once been so happy to receive these gifts, but now it all seemed so ridiculous. She had been too blind to see the signs.

Without saying a word, Anastasia turned and went back upstairs.

She took out her phone, contemplating whether to contact her family, but hesitated.

Three years ago, she married Christian against her family's wishes, and now she believed she deserved what had befallen her.

Tapping the screen, she was greeted by news from the internet.

The headlines were buzzing with scandalous claims.

"Shocking! Anastasia used to be a mistress and had an abortion before marriage, rendering her unable to conceive!"

"Why can't the Pattersons have children of their own?"

"Christian is so pitiful! He married someone who can't bear children!"

"Christian and Beatrice are a perfect match!"

"Anastasia's indiscretions revealed after marrying into a wealthy family!"
