Divorcing my billionaire husband (Antonio and Grace) novel Chapter 109

Chapter 109

As the view of Drelar City faded into the distance, Grace closed her eyes, feeling no attachment left behind. In the blink of an eye, another summer had arrived.

It had been six years since she’d left, and now Grace was back, holding hands with a cute little boy. Colin Floyd gazed at the vast airport of Drelar City, his little head filled with curiosity.

“Mom, who are you here to treat in Drelar City?” Colin asked.

In the six years since she’d been gone, Grace had married and now had a four–year–old son.

She pinched Colin’s chubby cheeks and smiled, “An old friend of mine…” Colin, a bit confused, held Grace’s hand tightly. His eyes were filled with curiosity at everything he saw.

As they walked, Colin suddenly pointed at someone in surprise, “Mom, that boy looks just like you!” Grace paused, and she heard two voices, familiar yet strange, calling out.

“Grace!”

“Mom!”

Grace’s heart skipped a beat, and she turned her head around to see Antonio walking toward her with a teenager. It had been six years, and Antonio seemed to have lost his piety, no beaded bracelet in hand.

Omar had grown into an eleven–year–old boy, almost

be my mom!” With that, he made a point of rushing over and clinging to Kendra.

Kendra masked her happiness, feigning concern as she said, “Grace, you shouldn’t talk about divorce so lightly.”

“Don’t misunderstand,” Grace clarified, “I’ve always been fine with Antonio and Omar coming to see you. It’s just…” Antonio cut in, “Grace, I didn’t go to see you because…”

Grace stopped him right there, not in the mood for his

excuses.

“Does it even matter? I handed you the divorce papers before I left for the rescue mission. Your visits don’t change a thing.” At her attitude, Antonio’s eyes chilled, as if his gaze could freeze.

His anger was palpable, and he nodded curtly. “Alright, don’t blame me if you regret this!” Grace frowned, puzzled by his sudden outburst.

Antonio didn’t waste any time, taking her back to their home.

He swiftly signed the divorce papers, gathered the required documents, and they made their way to the courthouse to finalize their split. As they walked out, Grace felt a surprising wave of relief wash over her.

Their five–year marriage had seen the love she once had for Antonio dwindle away. Antonio stood there, a few paces away, seemingly expecting her to change her mind.

Instead, Grace glanced at the beaded bracelet on his wrist, hesitated for a moment, and said, “Hands carry a lot of germs. Remember to clean them.”

unrecognizable to her. Everything seemed to have changed, yet it also remained the same.

Colin tugged at Grace’s hand, looking puzzled. “Mom, what’s wrong?”

Grace stared at them, briefly lost in a daze, and then shook herself back to the present. She looked down at Colin, and the discomfort in her chest faded. “Colin, it’s nothing. Let’s go.”

Colin’s spirits lifted, and he looked up with a grin. “Mom, are you hungry? My tummy is telling me it’s hungry.”

Grace’s heart melted at Colin’s cute stunts. She picked him up and playfully scratched his nose. “I’ll get you a nice meal.”

“Hold on!”

Just as they were about to leave, Omar’s frowning face popped up. With a frown, Grace took a step back, keeping Colin close to her.

“What are you doing?”

Omar’s eyes bulged, pointing an accusing finger at Colin. “Who’s this little troublemaker?”

Colin hugged Grace, making faces at Omar. “You bad guy! You can’t talk to my mom that way!”

Grace quickly comforted Colin with a kiss on the cheek. “It’s alright, Colin.”

Colin’s smile came back, but he shot a defiant look at Omar. Omar was seething, unaccustomed to such treatment from Grace. Antonio’s voice, laced with restrained fury, cut through the tension.

“Grace, who is this child?” he grilled her.

Grace was caught off guard, second–guessing her decision to return today. But Colin piped up, defending Grace, “I’m Mommy’s boy. Who are you? You’re not as cool as my dad.” Grace was taken aback by Colin’s articulate defense.

Then, in an instant, Colin’s tears started flowing.

Omar had Colin’s arm in a pinch, his teeth clenched as he spoke through gritted teeth, “Listen up, boy. She’s my mom, not yours!”

Grace’s heart ached. She pushed Omar away and snapped, “Don’t hurt my son!”

Omar reeled from the push, his eyes brimming with shock and tears. He’d never expected Grace, who’d always been so affectionate, to act like this.

But Grace was focused on Colin, lifting his sleeve to show a bruised arm. “Colin, it’s going to be okay,” she comforted, her voice soft. “I’ll get you out of here.”

Colin hugged Grace’s neck tightly, crying his heart out.

“Mommy, they’re bad guys. Let’s wait for Daddy to show them who’s boss!”

Grace rubbed Colin’s back gently. “Daddy will be here soon, Colin. Just a few more days. Don’t worry!”

Antonio, who had been keeping his cool, lost it at last. He grabbed Grace’s wrist, saying, “How long are you going to keep this up? Did you have any idea how hard I searched for you?”

Grace, repulsed by his grasp, yanked her arm free. “Back off. We’re through, and you’re well aware of that,” she said, her voice icy.
