President's Naughty Sweetheart novel Chapter 4

At three o'clock in the morning, Ella opened the door of her home with her key and walked into the living room. She saw a pair of high heels that didn't belong to her.

'She's really here.' She took off her heels and walked barefoot into the kitchen silently.

Five minutes later, she gently opened the bedroom door. She held a basin with water in her hand and walked into the bedroom.

Seeing her husband was holding another woman and sleeping, Ella's heart was full of rage and pain. With hatred in her black eyes, Ella splashed a basin of dark water on them.

Benjamin and Scarlett woke with a start.

Benjamin was startled to see a person standing in front of them. He wiped off the filthy water on his face and cried out after he figured out who that was, "Ella Williams! You're out of your fucking mind! What the hell did you splash on us?"

After Scarlett made out it was Ella, she pretended to be scared, "Benjamin, I'm scared. What if she hurts me?"

Benjamin pulled out some tissues in a fuss and helped Scarlett wipe her face, "Don't worry. She can't hurt you. I'm here."

Seeing Scarlett never missed her chance to flirt, Ella sneered, "I won't hurt you. I'm afraid you'll stain my hand!"

Benjamin looked at her in disgust, "Since you've known our relationship, I have nothing to say. let's divorce."

"Benjamin Johnson, you ungrateful jerk! That's exactly what I want to say!"

Ella turned around and left. She felt disgusted to cast one more eye on them.

Benjamin hurried out naked. He pulled Ella's hand and jeered, "Ella Williams! So you're crazy at money now? Don't you forget who bought the house and the car! It's me! You want half of my property? Just dream on! Unless you took nothing from me, I won't sign the settlement!"

Ella felt too painful to breathe. She raised her eyes and said, "Fine, I'll take nothing!" Her decisiveness and calm surprised Benjamin.

He did not expect that she would agree so soon. He thought she would cry and threaten him.

'But she saw me sleeping with another woman. She didn't even shed tears?'

It upset him a lot.

When he was distracted, Ella flung his hand and left.

Eavesdropping in the dark, Scarlett smiled with victory. 'They are finally getting divorced!'

In the middle of the night, Ella was in a cab, shedding tears. She just wanted to get junk at the moment. She was in Alice's inclined short-sleeved t-shirt and jeans. A pair of high heels was besides her feet.

The driver asked again, "Ms, have you decided where to go?"

Ella said, "To the food court of The People's Street."

Forty minutes later, Alice hurried to where Ella was. She pulled a stool and sat down, "Waitress, four more bottles of beer for Table Ten!"

"Alice, you really want to get me drunk? I've had two bottles." Ella's cheek went pink. She lowered her head, with a bottle in hand, and drank again.

Alice took a bite of a bunch of barbecue and signed, "You won't get drunk easily tonight. I know it when I see you like this. Don't you know? Sometimes the more you drink, the soberer you get. I understand how you feel now. Just drink and cry. I'm here with you!"

Ella's mind seemed to have travelled afar. Her eyes were brimmed with tears again, "Do you know, Alice? Benjamin wasn't like this when in college. He would blush when he talked to me…"

"My family has been strict to me since I was little. My mother stressed that men care about whether a woman is a virgin or not. She said my father despised her for not being a virgin. Then they divorced…So in college, when I was dating Benjamin, I viewed that as my bottom line. I thought I should have sex after marriage…"
