President's Naughty Sweetheart novel Chapter 3

"What is it? Why are you so serious?"

Looking at her, Ella hesitated for a few seconds and said, "Actually, David asked me to go out with him when in college, but I refused."

Alice smiled lightly, "I knew it. He told me when we got married. I haven't known you at that time. So don't worry."

"But that's not what I want to say…" Ella fronwed.

Her expression worried Alice, "Ella, don't tell me David's involved. I can't put up with double betrayal!"

Ella shook her head and sighed, "Three months ago, I went on a business trip to a designer seminar. We drank a bit at dinner. You know I'm bad at drinking. I couldn't even walk steadily when I went back to my hotel…Then I ran into David in the elevator. He just came for business. He said he would help me to my room, and I just let him. But when we arrived, he…he wanted to sleep with me. I was scared and I wanted to call you. But I mistakenly pressed the recording button."

Ella took out her phone and played the recording.

Alice's face went a bit pale, but she remained silent and listened to it. "Ella, it's God's will to let us encounter tonight! Be mine…"

"David Collins, you asshole! Let go of me!"

"You're so hot…"

"I'll call the police if you don't stop!"

"Give me that."

"Get the hell out of here! Or I'll tell Alice about it!"

"Ella Williams, the hell with your fucking pureness! So dull!"

At last, there was a loud sound of a slamming door. Ella was uneasy. She was looking at Alice nervously. She held this back for three months. Now that she's determined to divorce, she didn't want to do this anymore.

For five minutes, Alice smoked two cigarettes, and Ella accompanied her in silence. She was really worried that her friendship with Alice would come to an end because of the recording.

When Alice snubbed the cigarette, she finally made her decision, "Fine, Ella, you have my company! I'm done with this bastard! How dare he try to touch you! That's my bottom line! Ella, just divorce Benjamin as early as possible. I'll move out after I hand in my divorce papers. Then we'll live together. What do you think?"

Her word made Ella cried. She held Alice in the arm, "Alice, I was so scared just now. I was afraid that you would leave me alone!"

Alice held her by the arm and patted her lightly on the back, "Don't be silly. Shame on David the bastard! I won't blame you for his fault. We really are sisters! We're even getting divorced together…"

"Alice, I'll tell Benjamin that I'll divorce him tonight! You just wait for my good news!"

"Come on. Don't cry. Just leave Benjamin. He's just a jerk! I'm lucky to be born in a rich family. I can afford to divorce. I've got three real estates. So when you move out, you can live in one of them. From now on we're the league of divorce women." Alice acted like a queen.

Ella smiled through tears and released her. She took some tissues to wipe her tears, "But I have nowhere to go now. Can I go to yours? I want to go back home till night…"

"Are you kidding? My house will be yours. I'm not going home tonight. Just come to my duplex apartment. Let's have a feast, and curse the two jerks!" Alice took Ella's hand and left.

"Okay, that's it!"

Alice made Ella feel warm. Now divorce wasn't the saddest thing for her, but sticking with a man who didn't love her.
