Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE! Chapter 22 For the time being
VICTORIA’S POV
Isn’t it true that life tends to play pranks on us at the most inconvenient moments?
After loving this man for three years, enduring being ignored and despised by him, and ultimately deciding to leave, he suddenly held my hand and asked me to return to him.
What should I say? Could this be a joke?
I froze for a while, completely confused. If it were a few days ago, I would have cried to God, thanking him for sending this man into my life.
But now? I really don’t know how to act about this particular thing.
Considering the past, I think staying far from this man is best for myself and my unborn child, and somehow it’s very funny in a disgusting way.
I pulled my hand away from him with a mocking sneer on my lips.
“Oh, my…my! Mr. Devonte, it appears that the accident has caused confusion for you regarding many things. Is this a result of your injury?” I raised an eyebrow inquiringly. “However, this is a common occurrence, so there’s no need to worry. Would you like me to summon a doctor for you?”
He only stared at me. “Those blue eyes were dull and… hurt?” Oh wow! Is he hurt? For what? This is even funnier.
But unfortunately, I was in no mood, so I shook my head in denial. “Oh, no need for a doctor?” I asked again. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
He didn’t respond, so I shrugged. “Fine then.”
I never thought I could be this much sarcastic in life. Guess what? The situation taught me everything.
I turned around and just took a step to leave when suddenly his hand grabbed my hand, and before I could react, his hands found my waist and dragged me to the bed.
He didn’t stop there! He continued by pressing me close to him, his soft, warm lips slammed on mine. My eyes widened at the sudden action as I tried to push him away from me, not caring that my struggle could hurt his injury.
I don’t know if he felt any pain or not because he did not let me go but pulled up more strength to stop me.
Isn’t he sick? How the fuck he gets his energy?
His kiss was wild and aggressive. It felt like he is punishing me for not being obedient!
Obedient, my foot! Who is he to me now? Nobody!
He started biting my lips, making me flinch in pain, and then drove crazy in my mouth, devouring every inch wildly, and started sucking my lips.
This is going too far. Well, far more than my patience for tolerance.
When I couldn’t fight him physically, I only had one choice.
The moment his tongue started massaging mine, I took the chance and bit it down.
He groaned and flinched as his grip loosened against me. Suddenly, I shoved him away, breaking free from his grasp, and gazed at him with anger, coercion, and repulsion.
My emotions are peaking up as my tears are on the verge. Before I started crying in front of this unfaithful man, I turned around and left without glancing behind.
Fuck you, Alessandro Devonte.

ALESSANDRO’S POV
The stinging bite is still fresh and torturous on my tongue. I could taste my own blood. However, this is not what is painful to me or makes me mad, but my action did.
How could I?
I faked all my weakness to see her and feel her beside me. Though the fever was real, it was not as bad as I pretended.
Then the washroom part? I have never been so aroused before! She was incredibly attractive, and her hesitant movements and shyness made her even more charming. The slight blush on her cheeks was the perfect finishing touch. I’m not sure how I managed to keep myself in check. Fuck! The thought of her shyness again turned me on!
Then she made soup for me. After such a long time, I felt like eating. No one can beat her cook, not even grandma.
Sorry, grandma, but hers is better.
Soon, she wanted to leave, and I didn’t want her to. Without waiting for a second, I acted impulsive.
I asked her to come back and begged for a chance. But, she mocked me.
I know I deserve it after what I have put her through in the last three years. Still, I lost my rationality, and I forcefully kissed her before I could realize what I was doing.
Fuck! I can’t believe the decision I made. I desire to have her in my life forever and don’t want to risk losing her. Unfortunately, my actions only made the situation more difficult.
I wracked my fingers through my hair in frustration. How the fuck am I going to solve this mess now when things were already fucked up than it was?
Beep~Beep…
The sudden ringing of my phone broke my thoughts, and when I looked at the screen, it was grandma.
I am not in the mood to pick up the call, but I have to. I can’t deny her.
“Yes, grandma?”
“Oh, my good God, you are fine now. I was so scared, my child.” She said in relief. “My soul was almost out when I heard about your accident. I was surprised it was all because of that shameless woman! Have you forgotten because of her, you suffered three years in your life, my boy? Oh, you don’t know how happy I am to hear about your divorce. Finally, the curse is gone from your life. I will advise you to stay away from her always.”
Grandma’s words only made me angrier and more frustrated. It felt like someone pinching my heart with a sharp needle.
A curse, Victoria? No, never! Grandma knows nothing about Victoria; she has never been a curse in life. I never acknowledged it, but since she came into my life, my business has only increased and
increased.
With her beside me, I was living a carefree life. I was in heaven that I never cared about, and now? I am in hell.
Her leaving is a curse for me, not her staying.
“Alessandro? You there, my child? Are you alright?” Grandma’s worried voice again came over the phone as I nodded, gulping the lump in my throat.
“Yes, grandma, I am fine.”
“Oh baby, I hope you get better soon. And again, Alessandro, stay away from that woman. I heard Camilla visited you in the hospital, and that vicious woman insulted her?”
“Huh? What, Victoria insulted her?” That left me in shock. Clearly, Camilla lied! In front of me, Camilla insulted my Victoria!
But before I could react, grandma continued, “poor girl Camilla, she has been crying for the past few days. She was deeply saddened upon hearing about your accident. After your recovery, visit Camilla. It’s your first duty to do, understand?”
“Grandma, I…”
“Don’t deny, Aless. It’s your grandma’s request. We can not forget what that poor child sacrificed for you, sweetheart. You will visit her, right?”
Grandma loves me a lot, and I could not hurt her by denying the visit due to my respect for her. But I also can’t ignore that Camilla lied so much, and at this point, I am adamant about believing she saved me that night.
I also can’t deny that my own family, including me, hurt Victoria so deeply when she only loved me and respected every person in the family. But, everything needs to be done patiently and precisely, so I could throw the curse named Camilla out of our lives.
So, just for the time being, I nodded reluctantly. “Fine, I will visit her.”
