EX-WIFE REGRET, NO TURNING BACK!

A MEAN DISAPPOINTMENT

Chapter 5: A MEAN DISAPPOINTMENT

Kelvin couldn’t believe his ears, he hadn’t wanted to care about her but now he was forced to turn to her. He stared at her in disbelief, then asked again, “What did you say just now?!”

Diana, who was also infuriated, didn't back down.

“I said you need to apologise to Harry!”

Kelvin stared at her with his mouth open, he glared at her like he could pounce on her at any moment, his blood surged at her words and he couldn't understand how she could be so shameless.

“Is that what he wants? For me to apologise?” He asked coldly with his piercing eyes fixed on her.

“No! Don't bring Harry into this as he doesn't even know what is going on because he is ill right now.” She said, and without waiting for him to respond, she continued confidently.

“I know I'm in the wrong as I forgot Mia’s birthday, but it still doesn't warrant you to crash my party, and even destroy everything, and worse, you triggered Harry’s anxiety attack! He’s lying in the hospital right now and you think you shouldn't apologise?!” She questioned him confidently as if she were right.

Kelvin looked at Diana speechlessly for a while, then chuckled after he successfully calmed his rage, “I won't apologise to that trash! And you…” Kelvin paused, then looked her in the eye, and spat out coldly, "Shouldn't you be explaining your infidelity instead?”

“What?!” Diana exclaimed in shock.

She looked at her husband and her eyes turned red. “Me? Infidelity? Kelvin, I’ve never cheated on you so why accuse me of such?!” She questioned, her tone a bit high as she stared at him in disbelief.

“You have never?” Kelvin asked in surprise. He couldn't understand where Disna had gotten this blind confidence from.

“I saw him kiss you in front of a whole crowd, and you didn't reject him! I also watched him hold your waist but you never thought of pushing him away!”

Diana froze, she swallowed, “But—You don't need to make it look bad, okay? I wasn't able to react fast, besides, I was tipsy and he had only held me so I wouldn't fall. It's really not as you think. Can you stop calling it infidelity?” She asked, her voice now low.

Kelvin looked at her and suddenly shook his head as he realised she would keep defending herself. Since there was nothing much to say, then—

He suddenly paused as he heard the sound from the printer. He sighed in relief as it was just in time. He removed the papers from the printer then stretched it toward Diana who took it with curiosity.

“Sign it!” He ordered coldly.

Diana’s eyes widened in shock after reading it, “You want a divorce?!” She exclaimed but Kelvin didn't bother to listen as he pointed the pen at her.

“Just sign it. This is for the best.” He said calmly.

Diana looked at his face and realized the seriousness, she looked at the divorce contract in her hand and threw it on the table, “No! I won't! I don't want a divorce!” She cried out.

Kelvin didn't even look at her, he picked the document again, then stretched it towards her, “I don't need to listen to your opinion. Sign it!” He said resolutely.

“No!” Diana shook her head and didn't take the papers from him, “I haven't cheated so why should I agree to this? I said it was all a misunderstanding. So, why act this way?!” She asked with a clenched fist.

Kelvin suddenly felt tired, he really didn't want to listen to any of her nonsense anymore, but as he was about to say something, the door of their home opened which made both of them turn to the door immediately.

Mia staggered in while rubbing her eyes groggily, she stumbled in with her little legs and yawned, but when her eyes found her mum, her yawn paused halfway as she widened her eyes in surprise then ran toward Diana.

“Mama!”

Diana hugged her daughter tightly, she smiled gently and was about to say something when Mia’s foggy voice sounded.

“Mama, you don't want Mia anymore? Do you want to have another baby with that Harry?”

The smile on Diana froze and her face turned pale, then she heard her daughter sniff and continue.

“People at Mama’s company said Mama would marry Harry. Does that mean you won't want Papa and me anymore? Mama…don’t leave..” Mia pleaded tearfully.

Her words pierced through Diana’s heart like knives. Now she could understand why Kelvin had reacted that way, if she were in his position, she would do more than this.

Her body shook as she hugged her daughter tightly, “Mama isn't going anywhere, Mia will always be my baby!” She said but when she looked down, she realised Mia had fallen asleep. She heaved a sigh and threw a guilty glance at Kelvin who sat there coldly, then she walked to the bedroom and put Mia to sleep.

After some minutes or so, Diana came back after putting Mia to sleep. She stopped and gazed at Kelvin with a gentle gaze, and with nervous steps, she walked to him and sat down on the chair next to him.

Kelvin looked at her indifferently, and ignored the guilt on her face, he slid the papers towards her, “Since you are done, sign the divorce papers!”

Diana’s face turned pale white, her eyes turned red and her fingers pinched her dress, “I'm sorry, Kelvin. I really didn't mean to hurt you both. Don't let us divorce, okay? This really won't happen again.” She lowered her head in shame and apologised.

Kelvin felt drained. He really didn't want to listen to her anymore. She had done enough and listening to his daughter’s words again, he knew he wouldn't be able to take it any longer.

He looked at her calmly, “You don't need to say all this. This is for the best, so…Sign it!” He ordered impatiently.

Diana’s lips trembled as she looked at him in disbelief. He really had made up his mind?! But…

Diane’s eyes flashed with resolution, “What about Mia?! Do you think she would want her parents to get divorced? I understand that you are angry but don't make a decision you would later regret.” She explained, then continued immediately,

“Besides, I promise not to talk to Harry anymore, I’ll make sure I stop the closeness. Is that okay with you?” She asked, then bowed and with closed eyes, she whispered, “Think about Mia…”
