My Ex Boyfriend Begs For A Second Chance

Evara's POV

When we came back home and put Julia to sleep, I took a cold shower draining all the sourness I endured today.

Phew! Laying down on the bed, I recalled how everything changed so frantically. It was just a few days ago when you and Edward planned for Julia’s birth so eagerly. He promised to be the best father in the world but now everything had changed. He didn't spare the time for his daughter’s firsts and even neglected it totally. A drop of tear rolled down from the corner of my eyes when my phone buzzed in notification.

Edward: [Did you guys reach home safely? Is Julia asleep now?]

I closed my phone the moment I saw his message flash on the notification bubble.

With a frustrated sigh, I set my phone aside on the study desk I had just cleaned. Few hours ago, my old apartment room felt cold and unwelcoming due to its rusty and dirty sight. I tossed the garbage out and cleaned up the other room to make space for Julia's study room.

When I looked at the cleaned, refreshed apartment in front of my eyes, my heart felt giddy.

“Thank God, I bought it at that time.” I smiled.

“Finally,” I muttered to myself, tossing the dirty rug into a corner just outside the bedroom. I washed my hands, scrubbing away the day’s grime, before collapsing onto the now pristine bed.

As if on cue, my phone vibrated insistently.

Again it was from Edward!

Edward: [After you guys left, they were really unhappy. Since it's partly your fault, let’s compensate them tomorrow.]

I closed the messaging app, leaving his message marked as read and wanted to focus on getting some sleep but a call connected on my phone leaving me speechless!

“Ugh!” The continuous vibration of the phone made Julia cry out and before she could wake up from her sleep, I took the phone and picked it up, “What's wrong with you? Calling like a madman?”

“Eva, that should be my line.” His extremely low voice indicated how drunk he was, “How long are you planning to stay outside. Come home hurriedly.”

“Have I ever told you that I am going back?” I snorted, with the cool gush which made Edward shake to the core, “Edward, we are done for and about the compensation…duh! I don't give a fuck!”

After I cut the call, blocking him completely, so that he could never disturb us.

I already drafted the divorce paper from my advocate and was ready to send him immediately.

After I put aside Edward’s thought, I went to scroll my Instagram since I could not sleep anymore.

As soon as I opened the app, I encountered Arina’s post.

@Arina_Nope_Just_Ari [Find someone to treat you like a princess, if not then don't cry over some spilled milk!]

It was a picture of them at the backseat of Edward's Lamborghini, Edward was looking somewhere distant, holding onto a phone, while Arina was leaning onto his shoulder with a wide smile.

At the very bottom of the post section was the time the post was uploaded [140 seconds ago] and the note [close friends only post].

I scoffed at the sight. The caption was clearly meant for me. She already started the war!

Her crazy fans were all in their teens and enthusiastic for her being a homewrecker.

Call_Me_A_Bitch: [I already knew that Edward and Arina are meant to be!]

Kawai_sushie: [Call me outdated, I am actually feeling sad for his family.]

The trailing comments remind me that I am just a worthless shit and didn't deserve to stand beside Edward.

All these times, Edward kept me as a shadow of Arina and since she was back, Edward shouldn't be with the replacement anymore.

The pang on my heart was getting louder. I couldn't help but sob hard without noticing that Julia was waking up.

“Mummy, why are you crying?” Her small hands cupped my face and planted a kiss on my nose just like her father did it every time earlier.

I wiped my eyes and kissed her cheek, “Sweetie, why are you awake so soon? Let's go back to sleep.”

Kissing, I made her go to the bed again when I started singing a lullaby but my heart is still cloudy from the fact how Edward could betray us, especially how he would face our daughter after doing all these things outside.

My phone vibrated again with Arina’s another post where she was holding Edward's bicep and was smiling shyly.

[He is rock hard! #safe and #warm]

So Arina finally started the war with me? If she could be so vulgar, why couldn't I?

I smirked looking at the picture. I hit the like button and commented, [Then you should keep yourself warmer! It's very cold now.]

I scoffed at the sight. So, Arina had finally decided to be direct about her intentions?

Fine. Go ahead and take Edward away. It no longer mattered to me!

I let out a mocking smile and tapped out a comment on the post, my fingers moving with deliberate detachment.

Ruining her flowery post, I called it a night.
