My ex-husband’s nightmare (Lydia and Mason) novel Chapter 33

I walked into the building in front of me, my stilletter ticking:

I stopped in front of the receptionest. Her blonde hair cascaded down her shoulders.

With a bow and word of greetings, the asked, “Do you have an appointment with Met Adelina s diet.

Mes Adeline Rivers and I are very good hiends, said dead of answering ber, “don’t need an appointme

Mrs Adeline Rivers was the moderator of the club and also one of the top members, But before that, she is my friend That concept d’usmuy blurred over time, but that doesn’t change the fact that we were nice college buddies

This is the second time I’m coming to too her, I can’t stay kicked out of the club forever. What would I tell my friends abant meet them?

Talready lost the necklace to Lydia which had made me crazy. Being cut off from the club for good would do the worst to me.

“Maam, you can’t see her without an appointment; I’m sorry, I stared at her lips, painted red and lined with purple

“Inform her that Victoria is here. She won’t send me back.” I said boldly.

This was a gamble

She clearly stated the last time that she did not want to see me anymore.

The receptionist seemed torn,

“She’s my very good friend.” I heard myself say. After a few minutes, the receptionist was finally able to reach Mrs Adeline Rivers

I stopped into her office an hour later.

“You don’t just show up unannounced,” she said with a tone of disappointment.

“Well, You left me with no choice,” I said, dropping on the couch by the side.

As the CEO of Beta Nation, a multi–purpose company, her office was spacious and had all the luxury any office could have.

She had over fifteen branches nationwide. Her business was doing super well, which is why she was in the billionaire session of the club.

“Did you speak to Miss Brooks?” She asked. I placed my bag on the side of the couch

“At least I should get a cup of tea or coffee,” I said, looking a

around

“You can do that at a cafe. I didn’t invite you in to entertain you.” I smirked, looking at her, her tone had changed, sharper than it be to be.

It’s funny how humans can change. Before Lydia arrived at the club, she used to be all over me.

“Now, did you speak to Miss Brooks?” She asked again, and I shook my head.

“Adeline, there should be something you ca

Adeline shook her head, “you are the moderator of the club.” I reminded.

“That doesn’t mean I call all the shots.” She replied.

There was a pile of files on her table. She wore round rim glasses, which stopped at the bridge of her note

Mrs Adeline Rivers nodded, also moving her body forward.

“Well, she is my ex–daughter in law

Tmy chair

Mrs. Adeline Rivers blinked, not quite getting it, I understood her confusion.

“Are you aware her name is Alissa Brooks?” she questioned. I leaned back into my chair

can not forget the face of that no matter the name she decides to use.

It was no secret what Lydia dit. Or, in a more correct form, it was no secret what I made her take on

I saw a chance to kick her out of my life, and my son’s life, and I grabbed it. But who knew that stubborn fly would come back years later to interrupt my life and try to bring me down?

Just like that first time, I intend to crush her, Wealth or not, she’ll never be a match for me.

“What about her pregnancy?” Adeline was already in gossip mode.

Iraised a brow. That was when it occurred to me that all through I have missed the most important thing.

Lydia was pregnant then. Did she lose the baby? Her baby bump was gone since it was over five years, and she was already over six months along

Was it stillbirth?

“Well, for now, I have no idea where the baby is or what happened to i

“This is news. I’m surprised. I can only tell that it must be devastating

“it is.” I tried to maintain a sad expression. “You can only imagine, I said.

“That’s why I was surprised when I saw her in the club with a different name. But that girl has been funny, and up till this moment, nothing has changed

about that.

I knew I was

sounding bitter, but I couldn’t help it.

“So you see why it’s difficult to approach her and beg” I released a tired sigh.

Adeline moved into her chair.

My eyes moved from the floor to the ceiling window at the side where the sun poured in, casting a shadow on the closed things

“So please, Adeline, help me save my place. You know I’ve been a loyal member of this club from the beginning. I am one of the founding members. How can be kicked out by a new member? It feels unfair. This doesn’t make sense.”

She shrugged her shoulders, “that’s how the club is,” she said in resignation. She should have the authority to kick Lydia out, and not the other way out,

“Money rules. She has more money and influence.” I clasped my hands together under the table.

“Still doesn’t make sense or explain anything. These are rules guiding the club.”

Chapter 33.

You broke them, Feant mally blaine Lydia. She avoided my eyei,

Was she taking that bitch side right now?

“What do you miran?”

What were the rules that I didn’t know?

“You insulted a higher ranking member, plus, she is currently the richest in the clos, and you disregarding her and embarrassing her broke thei

She gave me a look as if to say. “I see you aren’t consistent with the rules, but you can’t blame me

The rules have never been applied.

“The only thing you can do is beg Miss Brooks” She wore her glasses, a sign that the comwrsation was over

“That’s the only way you’d return back.”

I left her office feeling more angry than I’ve ever beer.

I punched the middle of my steering wheel

Closing my eyes I placed my head on the steering wheel, holding back my scream of frustration

Lydia, you won’t have me throw out.

My mind reverted to how I knelt down in front of her all because I didn’t want to be removed from the group but she ended up sending me out regardless

of that.

Now, she wants me to beg her again.

It’s clear that no matter how much I beg or what I do, she never agree to take me back to the group. She just wants me to embarrass myself.

She’s in for the embarrassment and I won’t give her that satisfaction.

‘t get back to the club without her, then I’ll make sure she doesn’t get to stay in that club.
