Ex-Wife

Author Pov

"Do I really have to attend this party?" Amelia asked pulling the spectacles away from her eyes and looking at the old couple sitting in front of her.

"Yes, Amelia. This party will be beneficial for your business. You can meet new business persons  and maybe even get new shareholders." Amelia looked down thinking about the old man's words.

"Amelia I know why are you hesitating." Amelia looked at the woman with a frown. Why would she hesitate? She just wanted to spend time with her brother tonight.

"It's because of Liam right. I know you both are divorced but it's fine Amelia I mean after all Harry got his justice and now you need to move on." Amelia's frown faded away and irritation covered her features.

This is the thing she hates the most about her class women. They will never let the chance to irritate or taunt others go. There was no need to mention Liam here but no. Why this woman even came here.

"Moreover I wanted to introduce you to my son. You remember Ryan right. He was sad for you and Harry. I am so happy my poor boy got his justice and now I think you should try to move on as well. I mean I heard Liam was having an affair after your divorce with his secretary. I think you should---"

"That's enough Nina." Mr Simmons finally decided to stop his wife's bullshit before it goes too far. He could see how hurt Amelia was when she mentioned Liam's affair right after their divorce.

Everyone was shocked after the revelation. People always envied Amelia and Liam's love life. It wasn't a shock to know that they got divorce but the most petrifying news was his moving on this fast.

Mrs. Simmons looked down in embarrassment while Amelia stared at her blankly. She refused to give this woman one ounce of satisfaction. She knew why was she bullshitting all of this.

Ryan Simmons. One of the famous playboy. He had a huge crush on Amelia when she used to study with him in the same class. He tried hitting on her many times but she told him that she's already engaged and except Liam she can't even think of anyone else.

Ryan was heartbroken and also quite angry at her. She was the only girl he ever thought of starting a real and serious relationship with but after Amelia's rejection, he wanted to prove to her that he's a better man than Liam can ever be.

He went overseas for higher studies and indeed he became one of the successful businessmen but he was late in her matter. Liam and Amelia already got married and he was again left heartbroken but what Amelia liked about him was he never tried to interfere in her marriage. He accepted her being Liam's silently.

Ryan also got engaged with someone but now she was confused. Wasn't he supposed to marry his fiance? Why Mrs Simmons seems this desperate to make her meet Ryan again when everything has ended a long time ago.

"It's fine Mr Simmons. I think you should know that Mrs. Simmons that what Liam do after our divorce is none of my concern. He can do whatever he wishes I am no one to comment on his life matters anymore. So kindly do not discuss his matters with me. After all, you can see I am his Ex-wife. Not someone you should gossip his life with."

This time Mrs Simmons looked away in embarrassment. Amelia was indeed right. Telling about her Ex-husband's affairs especially the one she loved so much is not something decent thing to do.

"Moreover I am going to this party for my business and only for my business. I have no wish to meet or to get involve with anyone if it's not for business. Mr. Simmons I would love to meet the people who could help me build my business back. That's why I will for sure come tonight."

This brought a wide smile on Mr. Simmons lips as he nodded his head. They discussed the business for an hour before they both left. Amelia always had treated Mr. Simmons like her second father as he never left her side. He was the only shareholder of her company who didn't give up on the company and left her side.

While Mrs. Simmons has always hated Liam. She wanted to make Amelia her daughter in law. Amelia isn't only famous for her beauty but also well known for her higher studies. Amelia was a topper in her time and her every degree contains a golden star.

This girl is a gem and Liam was a lucky man who got her. Not only her but her love. Soul and everything as well. But life indeed takes unexpected turns.

After finishing her work she went to her apartment. She called Alexander and was surprised to hear that he was going to meet his grandparents. She thought they don't meet Xander or his son but Xander cleared her misunderstanding that they don't meet him but they are extremely in love with Alexander.
