A Divorce He Regrets (Raina and Alexander) novel Chapter 273

When we took one step forward, we usually somehow managed to be five steps back. That was our life now and it was beyond frustrating.

I had only just resolved things with Raina and I had to leave her again. I turned to her and gave her the biggest smile that I could muster even though it was false as I brushed my thing over her red cheeks gently. “I’ll be back okay? Just give me a second.”

She nodded but I could see the sadness slowly creeping back into her eyes as I got up and walked over to Dominic.

He didn’t wait as he grabbed onto my hand and pulled me to the balcony. He closed the doer behind us after he made sure no one was around and the words that came out of his mouth next left me weak to my knees.

“Nathan has escaped,” he said in one breath.

“What?”

It felt like I had been stabbed hard in the heart and my knees became weak, threatening to give up on me. I held on to the wall for support and a wave of nausea hit me as my stomach twisted into knots.

I looked at the door that led back into the house and my heart twisted even more.

Raina.

I couldn’t leave her here without doing anything. Especially now that Nathan was out there again. I couldn’t put her at risk.

“We are getting her out,” I said, my voice cracking. “It’s time to get them all away from this. Raina, Faith, and Caleb. It’s getting more dangerous.”

Dom nodded in response, his expression tight.

“I don’t care if she argues with me on it or if she refuses to leave,” I said more to myself than to Dom. “I’ll take her away myself if I have to.”
