Lonely Bride

SARAH’S POV

“Which no one knows, nor will they ever, because it is not in the name of Sarah.” I shrug my shoulders proudly.

“Who are you, girl?” He said this while coming close to me.

“Someone no one should mess with.” I said, giggling.

“Where are you planning to go?” He asked softly, looking worried.

“First, I will go home, ops. I mean Sean’s place, and then I will head to my destination.” I said, smirking.

“And what about the security? I already got a call from Nora, and I told him you were with me.” He spoke.

“Do not worry; you come with me. We will figure something out.” I said this while again turning my back to my grandmother and smiling at her.

I will live my life the way I want to from now on. I said this while smiling.

Me and Nathan went back to Sean’s house. Yes, now I cannot call this place home because it is not for me at all.

Mam, where were you?” Nora asked me as soon as I reached the house.

“Oh, hi Nora, Well, I am sorry, but as you know, we are leaving tonight. So, I really wanted to meet my grandmother. So I went to say goodbye.” I stated the fact, and I know he has nothing to say about it.

But ma’am, you could have informed me that I would’ve driven you off there.” He said it in a low voice.

Nora, I am not used to having guards around; hence, I always forget. Sorry.” I sweetly asked for his apology.

I know this poor soul has nothing to do with all the drama.

“It is ok, ma’am.” He said it, nodding.

I started walking, halted, and looked back. “Mmm, Nora, can you do me a favor?” I asked sweetly.

“Sure, Mam, please order.” He spoke.

“As you know, we have a late-night flight to catch, and I do not know when I will be back. So I was thinking… to surprise Sean, and I would like you to go and get the flowers for me.” I shyly looked at his face.

Sure, Mam,” he said.

“Great, then get me a bunch of Purple Ware Petunia. It is my favorite flower, and I want to gift him the same.” I said it excitedly.

Certainly, Mam,” I said, arranging them right away.

“No, please go and handpick the fresh flowers.” I ordered him.

“But ma’am, I cannot leave you.” He said it in a low tone.

“Do not worry, I am going to sleep, and moreover, with the kindly security we have in the house, no one will even touch my strand.” I said this while showing him security.

I can see she is contemplating. So, I said, Ok, fine, let me go then.” I tiredly started walking back towards the door, and bingo.

No, ma’am, please rest. I will get it.” He said he turned around and left.

I looked at Nathan, who was looking at me surprisingly well. “This was the best idea you got? And did you forget the security this mansion has? How will we get out from here?” He will be back in ten minutes with flowers.” He said it grumpily.

“These flowers are available only in summer, and right now it is peak winter. He will not get them, and if he does that too, not at least in the whole of New York. Moreover, Sean has only appointed Nora for my security, so they will not stop us.” I said, smirking.

“You and your obsession with the flowers.” He said this, shaking his head.

“It is called love, not obsession.” I gave him a sheepish smile and left for Sean’s room.

Opening the closet, I took some documents out, looked at the headline, and smiled painfully.

Divorce Agreement

I thought I did not need them anymore, but well, I guess I needed them the most.

Tears streamed down from my eyes, and my chest felt so heavy.

I clutch the papers near my chest and cry my heart out.

I look around the room with teary eyes, and all the beautiful time I have spent in this room has come to my eyes.

How do I want to hold all the visuals and keep them in a box?

I slummed on the floor, feeling so helpless.

Helpless of nothing getting my life I want in my life

Why did he spoil everything?’ I cry looking at the ceiling.

I looked back at the peppers and got up from the floor.

I took the pen in my shaking hand and tried to sign, but nothing was supporting me today. Not my mind, not my heart, and not my body.

Tears started dropping on the people and wetting them. Taking a deep breath, I finally signed them.

Now we are officially free from each other.

I took a pen in my hand and wrote something for him.

Dear Mr. Hudson:

So again, I would like to thank you for everything.

You know, I always had people in my life who had some alternative motive for having me in their lives, and I see you are no different.

However, whatever time I spent with you was the best time of my life.

I know it was fake for you, but I felt surreal.

Today I am freeing you from all the burden you had to have me in your life.

I leave a small gift for you and hope you like it.

I am also transferring my property to your name, so from now on, you do not have to play the games behind my back for that.

I never thought money could be so important; people do not think even once before breaking many hearts.

From now on, you and I have nothing to do with each other.

Now you live your life happily, and let me live mine the way I like to.

Take care, Sean.

“Sarah, are you alright?” I look back with teary eyes. Nathan looked worried about me.

I ran to him and hugged him tightly. “It is hurting Nathan; it is hurting here.” I said this while pointing at his heart and crying on his chest.

“This will pass, dear; this will pass too.” Creasing my back, he spoke softly.

He let me cry as much as I wanted, then broke the hug and looked at me. He said, “We should get going.”

“Yeah, just a minute.” I just ran back towards the bed, took out the handwritten note, and kept it in my bag.

Getting out of the house, I look back at the beautiful mansion painfully, where I had some of my best time.

“I hope I never see you again.”
