Contract Marriage With My Ex novel Chapter 61

A week later,

"Thanks" Shania smiled sitting on an armchair as Payton forwarded her a cup of coffee.

She was staring at the starry sky from the ceiling to floor huge window. It was like a clip playing on a screen. The blue sky mixed with black theme looked awesomely beautiful. "How long are you going to stay here?" he asked taking a seat next to her.

Shania stubbornly got discharged that day from the hospital and tried to attempt suicide again however, Payton who had followed her saved her. He slapped her on the cheek and taught her how important and worthy her life was.

But as broken as she was, she still did not want to go to the hospital and face her ex-husband. She was crazy at her father too who had refused to file a case against Raven and Kiara for tricking and taking Billy away from her. To her surprise, her father said no to it and before they can have further conversation, he had to leave for a crucial meeting same night.

She was so pissed off of her life that suicide seemed the only option valid to her, and she began to pursue her only wish- to die.

But not only did Payton save her on the night of the execution of her suicide plan, but he also saved her on the second night and took her too his farm house in the city. "Why? You want to throw me out or what!" Shania shot back at him and as usually caught him in the web of her words.

She was indeed a clever businessperson!

"No, that is not what I wanted to convey. Uh, your father called me in the morning! He is missing you. He doesn't trust me with your life" Payton laughed. "He thinks I am Kiara's agent whose playing another game to hurt you" he said without hiding even a single thing from her.

He was trying to lace some humour along his words and surprisingly, it did not affect her humorously at all. Shania stared her bandaged wrist falling in the traps of her past memories. "Tell him I am dead, I don't want to go back. I don't want to face them all, they are cruel" she announced in a heavy voice.

Payton trailed the cup of his beverage looking at the sky. He could not utter anything after that nor can he insist her to leave his farm house. Unknowingly, her presence has started amusing her. She was slowly becoming a part of his busy and lonely life.

"If you still insist I will leave your house and go somewhere else" she placed her cup on the small circular table of a small length.

She was actually expecting some exclamation from him alas, he did not react at all. Her heart fluttered feeling pathetic and Shania got up. She had come with him without getting anything from her assets. Not even a phone. She awkwardly roamed in the room looking for anything that she could take along and leave at once regardless, she had to go alone just like how she had come here.

"What are you doing?" Payton cranked his neck behind his back focusing on her face.

He saw her standing near the door like a mannequin with no moves. He was confused seeing her act weird and awkward. "What's wrong" Payton inquired again.

"I.. I am.. I am leaving" She said standing stiff.
