Filed to story: My Husband Regrets Divorcing Me (Audrey & Cornell)
Cornell stared at her with a mysterious look in his eyes.
“Only my woman has the right to hit me. Are you sure you want to do it?”
Upon hearing this, Audrey quickly pulled out her hand from his grip.
She didn’t want to hit or even touch him anymore.
But what she did only made Cornell even angrier. He sneered, “What now? Are you afraid? I thought you were more capable.”
The way he looked at her, and the tone of his voice made her feel like he was accusing her of cheating on him.
Now, Audrey was even more convinced that every time she was with Cornell, she would lose control of herself.
This was not a good thing for her, so she must do her best to change it.
They were no longer a married couple, so she shouldn’t let her emotions be swayed by him anymore.
Audrey smiled and said, “Mr. Clement, don’t get me wrong. The man outside is not someone else. He is Henley, my boyfriend.”
“Oh, really? If he is your boyfriend, then why are you flirting with me?”
Cornell smiled and added, “Audrey, are you that dissolute?”
Audrey was so angry that she clenched her fists tightly. But there was one thing that confused her more.
“Mr. Clement, I really don’t understand. Why do you keep pestering me?”
She looked at Cornell and blinked her almond eyes a few times. It was as if she had discovered a secret that he didn’t dare to admit.
“Wait! Don’t tell me… You fell in love with me after we divorced?”
In the past, she didn’t believe him when he said he loved her.
But now, she began to doubt it.
The atmosphere in the room instantly froze.
Cornell pressed his thin lips tightly. He didn’t speak for a long time. And his silence said it all.
Indeed, he didn’t want to speak it out because his self-esteem and pride would not allow him to fail and be humiliated again.
The corners of Audrey’s mouth twitched slightly. She said as if she was trying to coax him, “Mr. Clement, is it so shameful to admit that you love me? Don’t worry. I promise I won’t laugh at you.”
Cornell looked at her, and his lips moved slightly. He seemed to want to say something.
However, Audrey spoke again.
“Because your love is too cheap, and I don’t care about it.”
The damage had been done to her. Wasn’t it ridiculous to talk about love now?
Besides, even if he really loved her, she believed he would never be a loyal life partner.
But anyway, who was the real culprit? Who was to be blamed for all the pain that she had experienced?
If she didn’t love Cornell so much, she wouldn’t be hurt so badly, right?
So now, Audrey didn’t want to blame anyone anymore. Most importantly, she didn’t want and dare to fall in love with Cornell again.
Audrey stood up, took clothes from the closet, and went to the bathroom to change. When she got out, she found that Cornell had already changed into another outfit.
While staring at him, she blinked a few times, thinking he was such a rogue.
Matteo brought him some clothes, but he refused to wear them the previous night.
Even if Cornell didn’t sleep well last night, there was no sign of fatigue in him at all. His deep-set eyes were still charming, and his facial features were delicate. In terms of appearance, there was probably no man in the whole Ardlens who could compare with him.
But even so, he was still a jerk.
Audrey didn’t want to talk to Cornell anymore. Besides, she still had to deal with something.
Before going out, she said, “Mr. Clement, please don’t forget to close the door when you leave. And…”
She paused before she continued, “Don’t come back again. I like this place, and I don’t want to move anymore.”
Audrey had long decided to totally cut off her connection with Cornell. So, she had to finish it all at once. She didn’t want any involvement with him.
Cornell looked at Audrey coldly. The pain in his heart was reflected in his eyes.
Had she really given up on him completely? Did she no longer have any feelings for him?
Audrey walked past Cornell and was about to go out. But suddenly, he grabbed her wrist.
“You’re right. I think I fell in love with you a long time ago. And you know that once I’m sure of something, I don’t change my mind.”
Cornell reached out, stroked Audrey’s delicate face, and said clearly, “Don’t keep avoiding me. I will hunt you down for the rest of my life. You can never escape from me.”
Audrey was stunned. She was at a loss for words.
She didn’t expect him to still admit his true feelings for her after she provoked and humiliated him.
She stared at him quietly for a long time. Then she finally said, “Are you insane?”
Just now, Audrey still wanted to flaunt in front of him. But now, such desire was gone. And her hair even stood on end.
What the hell was he talking about?
“Why do you look so surprised? You’ve just realized it now?” Cornell asked casually.
Audrey was really speechless now. The Cornell in front of her was giving her goosebumps.
She knew how capable he was. But he had never used his methods on her before.
“Cornell, don’t be ridiculous. Do you think I will come back to you after you confess your feelings for me?”
Audrey’s body trembled, and she wasn’t sure if it was because of anger or fear. She said, “Let me make it clear to you. I won’t return to your side even if the sky falls.”
“Okay, if you say so.”
Cornell sounded very indifferent. It was as if Audrey’s words were nothing to him. It seemed his arrogance had returned.
His eyes were full of mockery, seemingly laughing at Audrey for biting off more than she could chew.
“One day, you will beg me to come back to you.”
Audrey’s hands were shaking violently. She could only look at this overbearing and rude man speechlessly.
Cornell just chuckled. Then he opened the door and went out, not minding bumping into Henley.
Henley was too stunned to react for a while. He didn’t expect that as soon as the door opened, Cornell was the first person he would see.
Henley only came back to his senses when Cornell greeted him casually and said meaningfully, “Remember, don’t wake her up so early next time.
Cornell then turned to Audrey and raised her chin with his index finger. He looked at her face carefully and said, “Don’t forget to apply the ointment.”
After saying this, he turned around and left without looking back, ignoring the expressions on Audrey’s and Henley’s faces.
Audrey was rendered speechless.
There was only one thought in her mind. And that was Cornell must be a devil from hell.
Henley looked at Audrey awkwardly for a moment. Then he coughed and asked, “Have you had breakfast yet?”
It was only then that Audrey came back to her senses. She remembered she planned to go out with Henley for breakfast and explain to him why she suddenly left the other day.
But now, she was no longer in the mood.
Audrey invited Henley in for breakfast, but they didn’t talk much at the table.
After eating, Henley volunteered to clean the table and wash the dishes. Then, he joined Audrey in the living room.
“You.
Tiiso0″
They spoke at the same time.
After exchanging glances, Audrey said, “You go ahead first.”
Henley looked at her face, blinked, and asked, “Are you… You and Cornell… Are you getting back together?”
