2024-10-29 19:42:56It was a blissful saturday morning and David appeared before the flourishing atmosphere of the Forrest family villa.
The entire compound were filled with servants and maids running errands tirelessly for the Forrest family and also the security guards who are protecting all corners of the villa.
David sighed. He was both happy and dreary at the same time, probably because he has returned to the place where everyone disregards him.
He was not surprise when he saw two maids of the house chortling when they saw him in the compound.
"Is that not Ms. Ashley's lowly husband? I heard she's pregnant for another man," They chuckled. Not even the maids have single respect for him.
However, David felt stunged by the harsh ego-crushing sarcasm from the maids.
When he remembered what happened last night, he already made up his mind to divorce Ashley, and that's the reason he had come to the villa.
David finally appeared before the entrance of the villa.
There were 2 security guards watching over the entrance when he came.Non of them have the courtesy to acknowledge his presence as the son-in-law of their bosses family.
David however did not mind. The door of the house was slightly opened as he walked inside.
Nobody in the villa was expecting his presence.
He walked around throwing his gaze everywhere in the enormous and beautiful living room of the villa when suddenly he saw a young lady sitting comfortably on one of the beautiful cushions around, busy walking her thumbs all over her phone screen while giggling.
But when she saw David, she hollered rudely!
" Hah? I thought you was in prison. What the hell are you doing here? "
She is Jennet, one of Ashley's meddlesome cousins.
Leaving what she was recently doing, walked to him bawling, " Answer me or are you dumb!! "
She yelled rudely as if she was talking to a maid.
David for the first time glared and curled his brow upon looking at her face; " These rude brat. " He nearly voiced out.
The disrespect was already too much from the Forrest family and he had had enough.
" Mr. David is in big trouble now..
What is he doing here? " The maids inside the house after being aware of David's presence started gossiping.
David placed his hands into his pocket to soothe himself.
"You're soo rude, that's why all your boyfriend's left you Jennet. " David threw at her.
I did not come here for you, I had come here to see Lady Selma! " David looked boldly to her face and said.
Jennet fumed. " What audacity!! How dare you insult me David!! "
" You should have stayed where you were Jennet, keep running your fingers on your phone screen and keep your mouth in your pocket. " David fired back at her, angrily.
"Ouhh! " All the maids in the house exclaimed loudly, David has just insulted Lady Selma's granddaughter.
"David? " An old husky female voice sounded powerfully and her voice echoed everywhere in the house.
"How dare you come to my house and start making noises, how in the world did you even got out from prison, huh!! " Her voice filled with surprise and anger.
David turned around when he heard the voice, there she was; Lady Selma walking down the stairs along with two maids who were helping her.
Surprisingly, there was no fear in his eyes when he looked upon her.
Jennet was baffled, she grinned maliciously and dangling her jaw when she heard her grandma's voice, but when she saw David's expression, she furrowed stunningly.
"Morning Lady Selma, sorry I came to this house unannounced. "
Lady Selma immediately interjected! " You're just a worthless person in this family, I can only ordered you to come to this house, you do not have any right whatsoever to announce your arrival!! " She growled.
A male figure could also be seen walking out from a chamber. " Well Well Well, is it not David Brighton, the poor boy from Riverland. "
David tilt slightly and found Donald Rans, his smiles were soo unfriendly.
Donald Rans family are great friends with the Forrest family for long, and Donald Rans is one of the rich young men who had admitted being in love with Ashley Forrest and wanted to marry her.
Instead of being jealously like always, now he mocks David. He walked straight to Lady Selma with his arms folded.
" My Lady, " He bowed to Lady Selma. " What is this boy doing here? Did you bail him out from prison? " He asked.
" Don't dare insult me Donald. How would I spare a single thought about involving myself in a problem this good-for-nothing has brought to himself. "
She did not know David was only trying to protect Ashley and their family reputation.
" I'm sorry my lady. " Donald said with smirked.
"Who's this idiot calling a boy! " David glared at Donald, curling his brow.
However, he turned and faced Lady Selma with composure. " I don't wish to waste my time in this place Lady Selma, I've come here to finally sign the divorce papers! " David said.
All eyes turned to Lady Selma and back to David.
David divorce Ashley?! Everyone looked surprised.
