Win My Forsaken Ex-wife Back Novel

Chapter 17 Be a Man Once she had composed herself and emerged , she saw him changing clothes and asked , Where are you going ? Didnt you say you wanted to talk to Julius about our divorce ? Arthur didnt even glance at her and replied coldly , You said some hurtful things to him .

He doesnt want to see you .

Inside , Charlotte scoffed .

Was Julius upset just because she had said she didnt want a child like him ? So , had he ever considered her feelings when he called her a shame in the past ? Charlotte didnt want to drag Julius into her issues with Arthur .

After all , he was just a child and had no say in this .

Divorce is between the two of us , she said .

Arthur , can you please stop dragging this out ? Come on , be a man .

He paused while adjusting his collar , and his eyes locked onto her face , a heavy pressure enveloping her .

Charlotte realized she might have crossed a line , but she summoned her courage and continued , From what Ive observed over the past few days , its clear we dont have a good marriage .

I wasnt happy before I lost my memory , so lets just get a divorce and move on .

Was she unhappy in the past ? A small , mocking smile flickered across Arthurs lips .

Save that for when you get your memory back , he said coolly before walking away .

Charlotte stood there , feeling a bit bewildered .

What did that expression mean ? Did he think she was lying ? Did he believe she had been happy ? That was ridiculous .

Being treated as a stand in for another woman while being looked down upon by her husband and son was that a happy life? Did he really think that marrying him was the pinnacle of happiness ? 4/7 He must have given himself way too much credit .

As a member of the Hardwick family , her life had been genuinely joyful before she married him .

Fuming , Charlotte had no outlet for her anger .

She stomped her foot in frustration , left the bedroom , and headed downstairs .

In the living room , she saw Julius returning from school .

Dressed in his uniform , he stood straight .

The features of his young face bore a striking resemblance to Arthurs , especially his pretty eyes , which reflected the same indifference and rationality .

He didnt seem like a five year old at all .

5/7 Grandma , Im back , Julius greeted Jennifer .

But when he noticed Charlotte , he frowned and instantly turned away , pretending not to see her .

Brat ! Charlotte muttered under her breath .

She walked down , looked at Jennifer , and asked , You heard what I said earlier .

What do you think ? Jennifer replied , Thats between you and Arthur .

Im not getting involved .

Charlotte fought the urge to snap back and was utterly frustrated .

What was wrong with the Harrison family ? Since Jennifer didnt like her , why not just support their divorce ? Clenching her teeth , Charlotte turned to Julius .

Julius , I want to divorce your father .

Do you agree ? Charlotte , Jennifer interrupted sharply , clearly displeased .

Charlotte said , Arthur said I should discuss this with Julius since hes part of the family , too .

Juliuss eyes widened slightly .

You want to divorce Dad ? That was the first thing hed said to her since he walked in , and he hadnt even greeted her .

Charlotte nodded .

Yes , I dont like your dad , so I plan to divorce him .

Are you serious ? Julius stared at her in disbelief , as if he thought she had lost her mind .
