Chapter 14 Its Over Id never seen her dressed like this before .
What the hell ? Was this her post divorce life , no more using Buddhism as an excuse , just desperately chasing her authentic self with Callum ? At that moment , I couldnt even name what I was feeling .
It definitely wasnt heartbreak .
Why would I be upset about a woman who never loved me turning out like this ? But I wasnt happy either .
Seeing Elizabeth trashing herself like this only made me realize how blind Id been .
Thank goodness we were divorced .
Lucky I got out when I had the chance .
Just then , my old classmate called .
I immediately hit the answer button .
Julian , whats going on ? he blurted out without even saying hello .
Im not mistaken , right ? Your bride at the wedding was this Elizabeth , the rich hottie ? Or am I seeing things ? Didnt you tell me your wife was into Buddhism or something ? How is she- At this point , my old classmates voice grew hesitant as he Chapter 14 Its Over 2/7 explained , Look man , dont get the wrong idea .
Im not trying to start anything .
Just thought you should know .
Dont worry about it .
I wont take it the wrong way , I replied with a slight smile , keeping my tone casual despite the situation .
Yeah , youre not mistaken .
The woman in that video is definitely her .
Wait , seriously ? Then … Hearing my confirmation , my classmate was clearly shocked , his voice trailing off over the phone .
After a brief silence , he added helpfully , I just happened to see this video while scrolling through the local feed .
It was posted just now .
I know where this bar is , so if you went right now , maybe you could … He was too embarrassed to finish his sentence .
No man on earth would be okay with his wife dressing provocatively to hit up bars at night , especially while cuddling .
up to some other guy .
But for me , this betrayal as good as catching her red handed- wasnt actually a big deal .
I was the one who filed for divorce .

A real man wouldnt waste his life on a woman who was no good .
Chapter 14 Its Over Id already wasted enough time on Elizabeth , and now I was cutting my losses .
3/7 As for her ? Whatever .
She could fool around with whoever she wanted ! No need to go there .
Were divorced , I said , my voice calm and matter of fact .
Im the one who filed .
Whatever she does now and however she dresses , it is none of my business anymore .
There was nothing to hide .
I felt no need to pretend this bothered me .
You got divorced ? my old classmate asked .
Im sorry , I really am .
I had no idea .
He added , Hey , Julian , want to grab a drink ? I can keep you company , and we can talk about it .
On the other end of the call , he extended an invitation .
In his mind , ordinary me must be devastated after losing such a gorgeous , wealthy wife , heartbroken and full of regret .
But the reality couldnt be more different .
I couldnt be happier .
No need , buddy .
Im seriously fine , I replied .
There are plenty of fish in the sea .
Im not gonna sit around crying over one chick .
when theres a whole world of women out there .
Besides , we were married for five years .
I got my moneys worth , I added with a chuckle , my voice unmistakably light and Chapter 14 Its Over cheerful .
My old classmates tone shifted to one of pure admiration .
Julian , youre something else , man .

A true role model ! Im sure youll find another beauty like her in no time .
No , scratch that ! Youll find an even better one .
Hah , thanks for the vote of confidence ! After wrapping up the topic of Elizabeth , we caught up a bit .
more before I ended the call .
As for that video he mentioned ? I didnt bother watching it again .
Just laughed it off .
4/7 Elizabeth was nothing more to me now than an almost ex wife I barely cared about .
I didnt have any interest in spying on my former spouse .
Afterward , I spent some time looking up the divorce procedures online before getting ready for bed .
But just as Id taken off my shirt and put down my phone to get ready for bed , the security door suddenly erupted with loud knocking .
I shot up from the bed , my expression freezing .
At that moment , I couldnt help remembering Lydias weird smile as she left earlier .
Crap ! She couldnt possibly have come back in the middle of the Chapter 14 Its Over night , could she ? Should I even open the door ? 5/7 The knocking continued , each thud hammering against my heart and sending chills down my spine .
If I let Lydia in at this hour , there was absolutely no way I could get out of this mess .
After weighing my options , I decided to ignore the knocking and pretend to be asleep .
Tomorrow morning , Id grab my bags and bolt .
As for those few thousand bucks in rent … Id figure that out later .
If Id known shed come back in the middle of the night , I wouldnt have worried about losing that money .
I shouldve just left immediately ! Now , I was trapped in the apartment with nowhere to run .
Thank god Id locked the security door before going into the bedroom .
Otherwise , Lydia would have used her key , and Id be completely screwed .
The knocking stopped after a minute or so .
Did she leave ? I perked up my ears and listened for a few seconds , thinking Id dodged a bullet .
But the next second , the knocking started again .
This time, accompanied by a voice calling my name .

Chapter 14 Its Over Open up , honey ! I forgot my keys .
6/7 Yeah right , I muttered .
Calling me honey already ? Theres no way in hell Im opening this door .
What about my reputation if I let you in ? I scoffed at the demand from outside my security door , intending to continue pretending to be asleep .
But as the female voice kept repeating her request , I suddenly realized something .
This wasnt Lydias voice at all , but a much younger , clearer one .
Not Lydia ? I frowned slightly , getting up from bed and tiptoeing out of the bedroom to the security door .
The knocking continued .
The young womans voice kept pleading for me to open up , her tone growing increasingly desperate .
Now that I was closer , the voice was even clearer , confirming that whoever stood outside definitely wasnt Lydia .
The pitch was completely different .
So who was it ? Had someone knocked on the wrong door ? After weighing the possibilities , that seemed most likely .
I peered through the peephole to see who was outside .
One glance confirmed it wasnt Lydia but a young , attractive woman .
She looked anxious as she knocked , repeatedly glancing over her shoulder as if someone she feared might be following Chapter 14 Its Over her .
7/7 This sight just made me furrow my brow harder .
I pulled out my phone and opened the security camera feed .
Lydias apartment wasnt just well equipped inside .
It also had security cameras at the entrance .
Before she left , she also gave me access to the security system .
One look at it and everything suddenly made sense .
From the cameras angle , I could easily spot a man in all black , complete with hat and face mask , standing motionless in the hallway not far away .
He was staring at the beautiful young woman at my door .
His feet seemed to hesitate , like he couldnt decide whether to approach or not .
Maybe it was my background as a firefighter , but I knew trouble when I saw it .
