Ex-Husband Begone (Bethany and Terrence) novel Chapter 6

Chapter 6

Chapter 6

On his way, he remembered he hadn’t been home for days and

that he was kinda rude last night, so he had his secretary wait in

line for over half an hour at Felicity Bakery to buy Bethany’s

favorite croissants. Worried they would get cold and not taste as

good, he kept them warm in his jacket.

He had no idea what had been going on with her lately. The

house was neglected, her phone was off, and she was nowhere to

be found.

Terrence yanked his tie off in frustration, feeling uncomfortable

all over.

Knowing that women often shopped to cheer up when they

were down, he transferred 300 thousand dollars to Bethany

through his phone.

But then he thought it wasn’t enough, so he sent another 300

thousand.

He typed out a WhatsApp message and hit send.

After that, he took the croissants out of his jacket, went to the

kitchen, and put them on a plate.

Terrence went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Once done, he stood at the sink and put on some shaving cream.

But the razor in his hand felt a bit dull.

This kind of thing never used to happen.

“Bethany!”

Realizing that Bethany wasn’t home, Terrence called out for

Eliza, all annoyed.

She hurried over.

With Bethany not around, there were so many things to do.

She wished Bethany would come back quickly.

Terrence, with his face covered in shaving cream, asked in a deep voice, “Where are the razor blades?”

“What?”

“I’m asking you, where are the razor blades?”

Eliza cast her eyes down and replied cautiously, “Mrs. McConnell usually prepares them herself. I… I’ll go look for them.”

Neither of them enjoyed this breakfast much. It didn’t taste as

good as usual.

“Dad, Mom made Krista so upset that she left last night. Will she come to see me today?”

“No, she won’t. She twisted her ankle and is in the hospital.”

Emery was worried. “What? Krista twisted her ankle? She must

be in a lot of pain! Dad, could you please take leave for me? I

wanna go see her.”

Terrence said sternly, “No, your studies come first.”

Emery sulkily lowered his head. He usually wouldn’t dare to do what his dad didn’t want. He whispered, “Can I visit her after school?”

“Yeah.”

Emery leaped out of his seat and ran over to Terrence. He hugged

his arm, stood on his tiptoes, and kissed him on the cheek.

“You’re the best! Come pick me up earl after school.▼ ▼ Krista together!”
