I Hope You Will Never Regret

CEO Martins was in his office at the Martins Group. His eyes were fixed on his daughter’s wedding invitation card which was sitting quietly on his desk. The wedding invitation card was addressed to his ex-wife, Elizabeth Parker.

Initially, Avery wanted to send the wedding invitation card to her estranged mother by courier, but her father volunteered to hand-deliver it. He wanted a distraction.

His mind was occupied by a beautiful young lady. When she was in his arms dancing at Bridgette’s engagement banquet, it felt right. He didn’t want the song to end.

He tried to remove her in his mind, but he failed dismally. He loved everything about her. When she smiled, all the sadness in his heart just dissipated.

During the wedding reception, he held her in his arms again. He nearly confessed his love to her. Mr Martins shook his head. He had never thought that he would fall that hard for the woman who was so young.

Caia Ford was thirty years old, but she looked like a twenty-five-year-old. She had a great personality, just thinking about her put a smile on his face. He was head over heels in love with Miss Ford.

He took the wedding invitation card and went to Siyabonga’s office. Siyabonga was buried in his work. CEO Martins looked at him and said, “I am leaving early today to deliver your sister’s wedding invitation card to my ex-wife.

It’s time to establish your company. Let’s discuss this matter after my daughter’s wedding.” Siyabonga was taken aback by CEO Martins’ words.

He smiled at his boss and replied, “Thank you, Sir, for everything you have done for me much appreciated.” Then CEO Martins left Siyabonga’s office and went to the underground parking lot.

Clayton was in the parking lot with other bodyguards chatting and laughing. Clayton opened the car door when he saw Mr Martins walking towards the car. Mr Martins thanked him, and then he got in the car.

Clayton closed the door, went to the driver’s side, and asked, “Where should I take you to, Sir?” Mr Martins smiled and replied, “Clayton, you are married to my cousin. When are you going to stop calling me Sir?”

Clayton smiled and replied, “When I am not on duty, Sir.” Mr Martins smiled and replied, “Fair enough. Let’s go to the Martins mansion.”

Clayton looked at Mr Martins puzzled, but he didn’t utter a word. He drove the car to the Martins mansion.

When Elizabeth heard the sound of the car, she went outside. Lily had been missing in action since the CCMA case.

It was already Wednesday, but her beloved niece had never even sent her a text message indicating that she was alright.

She couldn’t believe her eyes when she saw her husband’s car. She walked to the driveway with her hands on her hips and asked, “What are you doing here, August? Are you here to gloat because I lost a CCMA case against my helper?”

August was taken aback when he saw his ex-wife. He thought his ex-wife would be glowing after the divorce. However, she was haggard with bags under her eyes. Elizabeth was not wearing make-up since she was not expecting any visitors.

August looked at her and asked, “What happened to you, Elizabeth?” Elizabeth screamed and ran into the house to apply make-up on her haggard face.

Mr Martins walked into the living room and sat on the sofa. A few minutes later, Elizabeth sat on the sofa opposite her ex-husband and asked, “What are you doing in my house, August?”

August looked at her and replied, “I am here to hand-deliver our daughter’s wedding invitation card.” Elizabeth scoffed and asked, “Why didn’t you send your daughter’s wedding invitation card by courier?”RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

August looked at the woman he used to love with all his heart and replied, “I want to ensure that you received it. So that one day you will not accuse me of not informing you about our daughter’s wedding.”

Elizabeth sneered, “I will never attend the wedding of someone who destroyed my marriage. I am divorced today because of her and I will make sure to destroy her happiness as well. Please take her wedding invitation card with you.”

August looked at his ex-wife and shook his head. He smiled faintly, but the smile didn’t reach his eyes, and he said, “One day, Elizabeth, you will wish you had treated our daughter better, but it will be too late.”

At that moment, Lily walked into the living room. She was so intoxicated that she could barely walk, and her clothes were disheveled.

She smiled brightly at her aunt and said, “After we lost some money at the CCMA, you decided to beg your ex-husband to take you back? You are so weak, Aunt Elizabeth.” Then she hiccupped.

August looked at his ex-wife with questioning eyes. Elizabeth ignored him, then she hugged her beloved niece and replied, “It’s not what you think, Lily. August is here to hand-deliver his daughter’s wedding invitation card.”

Tears streamed down Lily’s face and asked, “Auntie, didn’t you promise to snatch Xavier from Avery? Why is she the one who is getting married to him? Aunt Elizabeth, were you lying to me?”

Aunt Elizabeth didn’t want to argue with the drunkard. She looked at her ex-husband viciously and shouted, “Leave my house, August. You are not welcome here. Don’t ever set foot in this house again.”

August was overwhelmed with bitterness. He stood up and looked at his wife with sadness in his eyes. Then he walked out of the living room without uttering a word to his ex-wife.

After he left, Lily looked at the wedding invitation card which was sitting quietly on the coffee table. It became an eyesore. Lily took the card and tore it into pieces.

Unbeknownst to them, no one would be allowed to the wedding venue without a wedding invitation card.

After that, she calmed herself down and walked towards the lift. She pressed the second-floor button, then she went to her bedroom.

When she arrived at her bedroom, she threw herself into bed with her clothes and shoes on.

Elizabeth was so embarrassed that her ex-husband saw herself and Lily like that. Elizabeth was very beautiful, and she used to have glowing skin. She was not a fan of make-up.

Mr Martins asked Clayton to drop him at the Taylor family mansion. He wanted to see the beautiful young lady who made his heart beat uncontrollably against his chest.

It would be a lie to say that he wasn’t shocked about his ex-wife’s appearance. Is it possible that his ex-wife had started drinking?

He wished that Lily had picked the Shelton couple to be her guardians. What would she learn from evil-hearted Elizabeth?
