“I’m sure she wasn’t feeling sorry when she’s all up on my husband last night!”

When Alexandra finally married her childhood crush at the age of 25, she didn't expect that she would one day catch another woman in the arms of her husband while she hid in the bedroom closet. But there she was, anger, betrayal, and sadness washed over her all at once as she stared at her husband and the woman who had the same dark brown eyes and dark hair as her. They looked almost identical...?

That same night, she stumbled onto the beach and before she knew it, she was sitting across the table from her high school ex, Caleb, looking down at the terms of their marriage contract that he drafted up hastily. 

Fuelled by anger and betrayal by the people she once loved, Alexandra knew she had to take things into her own hands. Together with Caleb, they plot her revenge.

“Let’s go,” Caleb demanded as he grabbed Alexandra by her wrist without a warning, pulling her away from the chaos and out of the ballroom in a matter of seconds while both Ethan and Hannah watched them leave with a smug smile on their faces.

“Why are we the ones leaving?” Alexandra questioned, yanking her wrist out of his grasp as soon as they were out of their sight, just the two of them hidden behind a wall somewhere. 

Caleb let out a deep breath. “I have my reasons, Al. Trust me.”

“Well, they can’t just -”

“Hey, hey listen.”

He was now looking down at her with both hands on her shoulders as she had her back pushed up against the wall, their faces only a few inches apart. “What?” 

A smirk etched itself onto his face. “I promise they will regret everything they had said earlier.”

“How so?”

“You’ll find out soon.”

My Husband Cheated On Me So I'm Marrying My Ex

Alexandra's reluctance was obvious as she contemplated the offer that was thrown to her seemingly out of nowhere. Caleb glanced down and noticed that her fingers were playing with the hem of her shirt, something she tended to do whenever she was feeling nervous or conflicted.

There was a moment of silence as his parents looked at Alexandra expectantly, waiting for her to open her mouth and say something.

Seeing that she was struggling to come up with a reply, Caleb jumped in to speak on her behalf. "She'll think about it," he said, the words rolling off the tip of his tongue smoothly.

As soon as the words left his mouth, Alexandra spoke up. "I'll be there," she quickly said, then turned to look at Caleb, giving him a small smile. The tiny feeling of the pressure building up in her chest disappeared.

"Great," William commented as his lips stretched into a smile. Beside him, a smile also found its way onto Stephanie's face, as she beamed with delight.
