Her fifth daughter died, so she deleted his bloodline. novel Chapter 44

Chapter 12

A month later, we all went back to Ashland. For the divorce.

Mom shivered in the cold. Looked at me with new eyes.

“You hate cold weather. Always have. How did you survive here?”

I smiled. No answer.

Alex had people watching Jon.

The Hartwells were nothing now. Barely hanging on.

Jon showed up on time at the courthouse.

Thin. Pale. Guards behind him.

Tiffany came too. Belly showing. But the spark was gone, eyes red, swollen.

Jon stared at me.

Longing. Missing me.

I looked away.

“Let’s go.”

We sat next to each other, waiting. He was wrecked, staring at nothing.

Quiet.

Until they called us.

I stood.

He grabbed my wrist.

His shoulders shook. His voice cracked. “Evie I regret everything.”

“I miss you. I miss you so much. I’m sorry.”

I pulled away. Cold.

“Don’t. My brother’s waiting.”

It was fast.

The paper in my hand, freedom.

I almost ran out.

Jon tried to follow. Say something else.

I didn’t listen.

“Free! Mom and Dad got a table. Let’s go.”
