Chapter 20

I returned to the party in Neal’s amus and when I passed the tall where Peter and his family were sitting. I saw by r husband looking at me sharply. Lizzy and Moira starred at ine limefully.

Inside I laughed. Luckily they gaze couldn’t kill, if it could, I would have died nine times tonight under their sharp gaze

While I was enjoying my cocktail, I saw Eva come out of the corridor where the bathroom was and walk quickly to Peter, then whispered something to him.

Then, Peter, who looked shocked, stood up and quickly took Evi’s hand out of the hall.

“Leo, what’s wrong?

Noah touched my arm gently. I turned to him and leaned closer to whisper.

“I think Eva told Peter what happened in the bathroom earlier, said.

Noah smirked and he looked a bit scary in my eyes, with that handsome smirked. Oops, did I say he smirked handsomely or was he handsome because he smirked?

“Just leave it be. They really need to be taught a little lesson. I’ll deal with them later,” said Noah in a relaxed manner. His eyebrows rose mischievously as he looked at me. ‘Or… Do you want to deal with it in another way?”

“Hm?”

1 looked at Noah in confusion.

“What do you mean, deal with them in another way?”

“You know, Leo, some say that revenge will taste more painful when served cold,” said Noah. “You’ve probably heard that

term.

“Uh, yeah, I guess you’re right,” I said. “They might think that all this time I can be treated as they please because I’m a nobody. But, I also don’t want to take revenge on them now that I’ve separated, because that will make them think that I can’t move on from them, right?”

“Then, just show them that you are more important than them, and cannot be underestimated as they have always thought. That alone is revenge without you needing to physically injure them, just a little mental damage to them as they deserve.”

Noah’s words moved me. Revenge doesn’t always have to be eye to eye or tooth to tooth. Making them end up only being able to look at me with reluctance is already the best revenge.

“Hey, can I suspect something is going on between you two?”

Jayden’s words made me and Noah separate our heads which turned out to be almost touching.

I felt my cheeks hot and when I glanced over, I saw that Noah also seemed embarrassed.

Jayden and Grace elbowed each other while flirting and I knew they were teasing me and Noah.

We joked while waiting for the event to finish and I felt very happy at that time. In my entire life, this was the most exciting and most enjoyable experience.

I feel loved and cared for, I can eat and drink what I want without hesitation, without having to ask permission for fear of being called greedy or plebeian. I can express what I think and feel freely without fear of being criticized or glared at for

silence.

Chapter 20

Yes, those are all things that just realized, have killed my character after years of marriage to Peter and joining his family.

I never did what I wanted because Peter wanted me to obey and obey him. His mother and sister never let me say what I felt or thought, because they thought I was ignorant, stupid, and embarrassing to be by Peter’s side.

Several times there were parties held at Peter’s company, I never felt comfortable attending with him because he always asked me to stand behind him. I wasn’t properly introduced and he also never tried to involve me in his conversations with his friends.

When taking food or drink, he would give me warnings not to take too much, so that I eat neatly, so that I don’t eat loudly, so that I don’t do this or that.

When there was a big family event, Moira would deliberately p me in the kitchen to take care of the food for the guests. She pretended to praise that I was good at cooking and that her extended family needed to taste my cooking, even though that was just an excuse to exclude me from the fun in their family.

Eva would order me to provide this and that food, clean her room and the whole house if she wanted to invite her friends to study together at home, even though in reality she and her noisy friends would only dress each other up and gossip about

men.

Here at this table, with Jayden, Grace, and Noah, I am

nobody like Peter and his family made me do like a princess who is cared for, served, and loved, I am not just

y ironic.

Noah was telling a joke when my phone vibrated. I looked at the phone screen and an unknown number appeared on the

screen.

just let the number call, without accepting the call. I’m not used to receiving from unknown numbers.

Then a message appeared in the notification window.

ou come out and meet me? I’ll be waiting for you in the back garden.”

“Leora, it’s me. Peter. Can you

Apparently it was a call from Peter’s number. It seems like he used a new number to contact me, because I’ve blocked his own number since the divorce.

I touched Noah’s arm and showed him the note under the table.

Noah squeezed my hand and nodded. ‘Go. Don’t forget to turn the recorder on your phone. I’ll be nearby to supervise.” “Leora, I will take Grace to the gallery to help her pack these dresses. You go home with Noah first,” said Jayden after the host was delivering the event’s closing speech on the podium.

“Don’t worry, Jay, tonight I will stay at the mansion. I haven’t slept on my bed there for a long time,” said Noah.

I immediately went to the garden behind the building to meet Peter. Noah made sure he was in an easy place to reach me if anything happened to me.

Peter was smoking when I got to the park. He quickly put out his cigarette when he saw me coming.

“Why does it have to be turned off?” I asked. “You can continue smoking.”

Peter smiled. “You don’t like it when I smoke.”

I felt he was making a joke with that

statement. I chuckled.

“And if before you never cared whether I liked it or not, why should you bother thinking about it now? Are you trying to make a good impression on me?” I asked in a sharp tone that should have made him feel insulted.

“You’ve changed in just a few months,” said Peter in a complaining tone. “You always spoke softly and slowly before.”

Chapter 20

“Peter. I learned from the post. You and your family never heard what I said, because I spoke too quietly, so now I’m learning to speak louder. I answered bluntly. “Come on, Peter, are you asking to see me just to say useless things from the past?”

Peter sighed. It seemed like he had realized that I wouldn’t respond to him the way he expected.

“I just wanted to talk to you. Peter said. “We haven’t talked in a long time.”

This time, I laughed so hard, my stomach hurt. Peter looked at me as if he was worried I had gone mad

“Ooh, Peter, I didn’t know you were so good at joking now! Why are we talking when we shouldn’t be talking about anything else and there’s nothing to talk about anymore?”
