Chapter 7 - 7

Sam's POV

 I had to remain calm in this situation because I hadn't even been expecting both Nicholas and Danny to act like my body guards like that!

 "Hey, I don't appreciate any of these nonsense. You're coming back home with me this instant!" Justin said, for some reason he thought he still had rights over me. 

 Before anyone could say anything, I was forced to burst out to laughter. He frowned, watching me like I'd just ran mad. I didn't care.

 "For years I've been married to you. You never seem to care about me, but now you want me back home?" I asked looking certainly puzzled!

 His lips pouted as he frowned. "But you're still my wife--"

 Nicholas stepped forward. "Come on, love. We have work to do. You shouldn't waste your time here with this one."

 "Yes that's right." Danny added. "I have great news for you. Shall we all meet over at your office?" 

 I nodded and turned to head to my office when I felt a strong grip on my hand. "Ouch. Let go of me!"

 "Regina, I--"

 Punch!

 It was so hard that it knocked him down, causing him to fall unconscious one time. 

 At the office clinic, the nurse had just left after attending to him. I was forced to at least wait until he opened his eyes. A loud groan escaped from him as he began to open his eyes.

 "This hurt like crazy!" He cried out whining like a baby.

 I got up, "Well Danny shouldn't have punched you hard like that. He sends his apology."

 Justin jumped up to sit, "Wait--W...where are you going? Look at me! I'm hurt and you'd rather leave me here all alone? Ouch!" He winced as he pressed his nose slightly. It had been bandaged.

 "Oh I just here to make sure you didn't die from that little punch, and you awake now has given me my answers. You want pampering? I'll go get Mira for you." Anger filled me. I didn't want to sound petty now but fuck! He's just so annoying.

 He blinked. "Mira? What does she have to do with--you know what, never mind. I could sue you right now. And your pretty boys."

 My heart sank. "Never mind? Huh...coming from the man who ruined our marriage because of some dumb secretary."

 He looked serious as he glared at me. "I don't know what you're talking about. If you're going to be petty with me over a secretary I fired three months ago, because she was making moves on me and I didn't like it! But fine, be mad at me. I saw the footage of you leaving with some man!"

 I didn't want to believe him, but why would he lie? "You...fired her three months ago? Mira isn't part of your staff?"

 Justin grunted irritatedly. "Where did you get this useless piece of information, these lies?"

 "And what's that nonsense you were saying about me leaving with a man? You're going to say you don't know my driver? The butler Gabriel sent a driver to come pick me up from that hell house! It was our fucking anniversary, Justin. And you hurt me!"

 I made my expression hardened. "You can walk. You should leave already."

 Alex jumped up to his feet, I was surprised at the pace at which he did. "Hold on--"

 "--if you touch me, I'm doing the punching this time." I said strictly. Instantly, his hands was raised up in the air as defense. 

 "I--I didn't know." It didn't look like he hadn't known the man was my driver. "Okay. Okay. Let's just go back home. I'll have to tell my mom and sister to leave the house for you. You'd rest, relax. Huh?" 

 I remembered all the sleepless nights I had with the way Justin treated me like a maid, he even showed love to his maids than he did to me! I couldn't go back to that hell house!

 "I don't love you anymore, Justin." I hoped those lies didn't seem too noticeable. His eyes flared, but I didn't care. Wait, did he still feel a thing for me--no! I didn't care any more.

 "You're joking, right? Look at you. You're still wearing the diamond earrings I gave you for our anniversary! You're nothing without me, Sam. Over time, you'd only end up missing me like crazy. Why put yourself through that torment?"

 I reaslied be was slowly patting himself on his thigh like he did when he was nervous. Why was he nervous now? Did he mean what he's saying?

 I swallowed. I did love Justin, I loved him so much! I wanted to just get close to him now and fall into his arms so he would lift me up, take away all this little suffering that had happened. In marriages, fights were expected, weren't they? It didn't mean things had to end!...

 "I'm sorry I called you a thief. I'm sorry I wasn't there for you on our anniversary but remember the night we spent together that time...I can't really remember because--"

 "Of course you can't. Because you were drunk!" The anger had returned again. My face did fluster but it was because of someone else. Nicholas and I had spent one hot night together when I was still so heavy in pain after Justin and I separation. 

 I cheated on him. That was more than enough reason not to get back together with him!

 "Wait, I need you to calmly make a decision here. Don't be in a haste!" He pleaded. The proud Justin Anderson is begging! "Please, come back to me."
