Chapter 16 He’s Gone Mad
Idris was angry, and so was I. I wanted to vent all the grievances that I had held back for so long.” Idris Young, are you not clear on why I want to divorce you? Moore is pregnant. What do you expect me to do? Continue to turn a blind eye and play pretend with you? Or wait to be kicked out, shaming the Scotts‘ family name in the process?”
I yelled at him, my chest hurting. Yes, I had fallen in love with him. It was a love that developed over a fragmented and difficult two years. Only I knew the pain of having to pull away now.
He paused for a moment, and his brows furrowed. “Moore’s pregnant?” There was surprise and shock in his eyes, and it took him a long time to regain his composure.

He frowned. “Yvette, can’t we have a proper conversation?”
I pushed him away. He never denied that the child was his, which was enough to prove that there was no point in us continuing this relationship. I took a breath, looked at him, and said firmly, “Idris, I’ll definitely divorce you. I’m someone who’s obsessed with keeping things clean, and I find all this business dirty. If Moore treasures you so much, then I don’t want you anymore. I wish you guys happiness for the sake of your kid.”
“Yvette!” He gripped my hand, practically growling my name. “Have I indulged you too much in the past two years?”
I had underestimated just how crazy and irrational an angered man could become. Night in the mountains was a lethal cold, and it shook my heart. I could not describe Idris‘ madness, but I felt a
