Vera looked at me with teary eyes, and I forced out a smile.
“Vera, don’t worry, Mom will take you away.”
That night, Ezra did not return at all, and that account showed their love updated again.
That lovely hand-in-hand picture strongly hurt my heart.
“With you here, I do not fear anything, love you!”
I quietly pressed like on that post.
Then I called my father.
“Dad, after one week, I will bring Vera back to England.”
The man on the other side of the call laughed loudly.
“My child, I know he cheats again, a foolish man who cannot control his body.”
“This time, do you still, like before, leave him a chance?”
I looked at the wedding picture on the wall and gave a firm answer.
“No, Since he doesn't cherish the opportunities I give him, his assets will be wiped out the day the divorce takes effect! I want him to lose everything, worse than death! ”
Ezra, you think you do not owe me anymore, but I want you to pay me back what you owe me.
From that day, Ezra didn’t come back home, not even hiding his cheating.
He treated cheating like something normal, like I was an air.
I looked at that account posting often, but didn’t feel the same sadness and pain as before.
“I said I wanted to see the world, he brought me to an auction, people thought I was Mrs. Howard.”
“I came to Paris with him, the Eiffel Tower saw our love.”
“I said I wanted a house, he gave me that villa in Fairview Heights!”
…
In only one week, their loving posts went over twenty.
I saved everyone, printed them on paper, and gave them to Attorney Harper.
“I don’t only want to take back the money he gave Heidi, I also want them to pay for the hurt they caused me.”
After dealing with these things, I went to the door of the storage room near the stairs in the villa and opened it.
I walked to the old safe covered in dust and took out that faded notebook.
It kept the memories of the past twenty years between Ezra and me, every line full of real feelings.
At the same time as I tore that notebook into pieces, my phone also got a message.
“Ms. Russo, the visa process for you and your daughter is done. Welcome to England.”
After dinner, I got a teasing message from Heidi.
“Evie, I know you have been watching my account. I posted it on purpose for you to see.”
