CHAPTER 58
Chapter 58
-CLARA-
Ever since that day, everything changed for me. The maids began to give me attitude, everyone treated me like an outcast in that house and I couldn’t even set my foot outside without being bombarded by paparazzi.
Apparently, Alicia had uploaded a video of her exposing me to the internet and saying all kinds of nasty things that weren’t even true then at the end, she added the voice recording of Damon asking for a divorce before storming out and everyone instantly made me the bad guy.
This was exactly what i thought would happen and that was why I was so scared.
This just shows how little I mean to everyone” I murmured to myself as the cold shower rained down on me. I tried not to cry since I’ve been crying for days now but the tears came streaming down freely.
After a while, I got out of the shower and sluggishly tied a towel around my chest before stepping out of the bathroom.
then, my phone began to ring and I ran towards it immediately, thinking it was Damon but it wasn’t which left me disappointed.
Just th
I’ve been trying to call Damon since that night but he doesn’t pick my call nor reply to my text.
I let out a sigh as I picked up the call and placed it against my ear.
“Hello Aunt Amelia” I murmured and she sighed.
I downy cheeks. Aunt Amelia could always read me no matter
“He still hasp’t spoken to you?” She questioned softly and a lone tear slid downy ch what and I was so grateful for her because despite everything, she was always there for me.
She had been angry when she heard my secret because I hadn’t told her but she quickly understood that I didn’t want to out of fear of losing her.
“No” i murmured softly and she sighed.
“That’s it, I’m coming to take you away from there even if it’s just for a while. You’re being isolated and I don’t like it. We’ll go on a vacation to lighten the mood. I’m sure my husband wouldn’t mind being alone for a week. I don’t like seeing you like this” Aunt Amelia uttered and took a deep breath to stop myself from crying again.
“Okay aunt Amelia. Can we go tomorrow? I’ll really need a break from everything I murmured.
“Of course dear, I’ll have it arranged. Be strong, okay? Pack sexy stuff because you’re beautiful and any man would be happy to have you as their wife” After saying that, we exchanged goodbyes then ended the call.
I was instantly met with silence and reality began to settle back in, I was alone.
Just then, I heard a knock on the front door which made me freeze. When the knocking got frequent, I quickly open it
I was met face to face with Delilah and I couldn’t hide the shock on my face.
“Deli…” Before I could o complete my sentence, she wrapped her arms around me and hugged me tightly.

“I’m sorry I wasn’t here earlier, I packed out of the pack because I couldn’t bear seeing their laces anymore. I’m sorry I didn’t call” She murmured and the tears came streaming down immediately.
I wrapped my arms lightly around her and we stood there for what felt like

After a while, I pulled her in and closed the door behind her, then we both turned to each other and bursted out laughing when we saw how
red our faces and puffy our eyes were.
“You look horrible” She pointed out and I sighed. Helt horrible.
You need a makeover and you need to get out of this depressing house. As a matter of fact, why were you the one that answered the door? Where are the maids? Butler?” She questioned and I frowned
“They all stopped respecting or attending to me ever since they found out Damon was planning on divorcing me” I muttered and she
stared at me in shock.
“What!” She screamed so loud that I could have sworn I felt the floor rumble.
“Oh I’m going to teach every single one of them a lesson they’ll never forget. How dare they?” She screeched but before she could run off, I
grabbed her hand.
“Please just leave them alone. I’m okay. They have no reason to respect me if I’m not a Donovan anymore” i murmured and she scoffed.
“But you’re still a Donovan as long as you haven’t signed any divorce papers. Besides, I don’t think Damon is going along with that threat”
She uttered and before I could say a word, we heard another knock on the door.
I glanced at Delilah before opening the door and I gasped when I saw Luca. I looked behind him and frowned when I didn’t see any sign of

“He’s not here” Luca uttered with a pity smile on his face before bowing his head.

“Good morning. Mrs Donovan, Damon asked me to send this to you but I wanted to give you
behind him and my heart instantly began to thump in my chest.
I took the file from him with shaky hands and just like I had thought, it was the divorce papers.
“What?! Is Damon crazy?! He really wants to divorce her?!” Delilah screamed in anger while I closed my eyes and let my tears fall on the file.
“He’s just acting out of anger. You know the way your brother is and besides, I don’t think he really wants you to sign it…”
“I’ll sign it” I interjected and they both went quiet.
“Clara…” Luca started but I shook my head at him. Any word uttered now would break me so I didn’t want to hear anything.
“Pen please” I managed to say while holding back tears and he sighed before handing me the pen. I took out the papers and he pointed at where I was to sign and when my eyes landed on Damon’s signature, I couldn’t hold back the tears.
I signed the papers then handed it to Luca before cleaning my eyes.
“I’ll be out of here tomorrow and I’ll be out of this pack” I muttered and they both stared at me in shock. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
“Clara, you…” Delilah began but I shook my head at her and she stopped mid sentence.
“It’s okay. I’d like to be alone now, I hope you don’t mind” I murmured and she stared at me for a while before wiping away her tears.
“Okay but wherever you’re going. I’ll go with you and you can’t say no. I’ll get my bags ready and be here tomorrow” She uttered then walked out of the door before I could argue and I sighed before turning to Luca who still had a frown on his face.
“He doesn’t mean this, he’s just angry and he tends to act on anger before realizing what he has done. I’ll talk some sense into him and…”

“Luca, there’s no need for that. I’ve always known I was nothing but a contract to him and I broke that contract by lying to him so it’s my fault and I don’t blame him. I’m the one that caught feelings, it’s not his fault. Can I be alone now please?” I pleaded before I broke down and he sighed before turning around and walking away.
I closed the door behind him and ran up to my room before breaking down. I cried so hard that I felt like I could barely breathe anymore How could Damon do this?.
I
“I guess I meant nothing to him. Everything was just a lie” I murmured to myself as I hit my chest because of how painfully it was aching. Why was my life so miserable? Why did I always end up abandoned?
I fell asleep on the ground while crying and woke up late at night and was immediately greeted by silence and darkness.
let out a sigh then groaned as I stood up from the floor and immediately began packing my things. I shot Aunt Amelia a message so she’d be here earlier so I could leave here as soon as I could
I was about to rip up my luggage when I heard the front door being forcefully opened then closed with a bang.
I furrowed my eyebrows and went down to see what it was but froze when I saw a masked huge man standing in front of the door with several weapons in his hand.
“Mrs Donovan, it’s nice to finally meet you. I’m sorry our meeting is going to be short” He muttered and my heart began to race.
I was about to release my wolf when he shot my arm with something that instantly weakened me.
“Don’t make this harder than it has to be. I’ll just kill you and be on my way” He muttered and I suddenly couldn’t speak because of fear. “Don’t even dare scream because no one is here. You are all alone, we are all alone” He uttered as he took slows
steps towards me.
I glanced around frantically and reached forward for a rod before sticking it into his stomach.
“Ughh! Damnit!” He screamed out in pain and as he struggled with the rod, I used all my strength to run up the stairs as fast as I could,
There was
only one thing on my mind, I needed to call Damon.
Even though my vision was already getting dizzy, I reached out for my phone and dialed his number several times but he didn’t pick up so accepting my fate, I opted for a voice record and the only thing I could say was;
“I regret meeting you” i murmured as tears rolled down my cheeks and at that moment, the man barged into the room and grabbed me forcefully by the hair.
“You bitch!” He screamed and I yelled out in pain before sending the recording and immediately, he grabbed the phone and smashed it to the floor
“Doesn’t matter if you send a thousand recordings, you’ll be dead before anyone gets here anyway“..
