The Lonely Wife

The Lawyer's Office

I am head into the elevator, and suddenly the doorstop. I noticed there is a hand stopping it from closing. Then I looked up, and there was my husband, Derek.

I heard my name from the person that stopped the elevator door from shutting.

"Bella Rose," a male voice I heard, and I stopped what I was doing, and then I thought, no, it couldn't be him, not now. After what he put me through, I will not look or respond.

I am such a dumbass. I bit my lip, and then I looked into his eyes, and he gave me a smirk, but then someone followed him inside the elevator as well.

But before he could say another word to me. I noticed someone else got into the elevator, and then she grabbed Derek's arm.

"Hello, Bella," a Female voice said.

I looked over towards the voice, and I just wanted to punch the lady in the face because it was my ex-bestie.

It was Jamie. I glared at her, and then she gave me the stink eye. I was thinking, damn, I want to f*****g punch her in her slutty face.

" Hello, Jamie, how was your trip with," I said while pointing over towards Derek,

"With Derek here," I said with a b***h pitch.

"It went fabulous, and you won't believe the beautiful room we got for the whole weekend. It was so pretty and so romantic," she says while bouncing up and down happily.

"Good, for you well after we sign the papers, I have a date. So wish me luck, darlings." I said, then got off of the elevator.

"Wait, what do you mean you are going on a date after this?" Derek demanded.

"Ooh, right well, darling Derek. Someone asked me out, well since I will be single, inlet see.

A few minutes from now." I said while smirking and walking away from them when I heard the dim of the elevator open it up.

"Bella Rose, you explain this instant. I mean, right now, baby," Derek shouted with demand in his voice.

"Excuse you," I said.

While stopping in front of the elevator doors and front of the lawyer's office doors. I waited patiently for what he had to say to me.

"Now, tell me again and who is baby again, because last time I check, you f**k around on me," I said.

Then I gave a nasty look over towards Jamie.

"With her," I said.

I was walking away when he and she both had stunned looks on their faces.

"I have you know that Derek always loved me." Jamie boosted up with courage.

"Yeah, yeah, so what you have, my sloppy seconds. I said, then walked straight into the lawyer's office. Have fun with it."

I looked back and noticed Derek looking at me with another light.

I go up to the receptionist and tell her I am here to see Mr. John Jeffers.

I am so glad I picked a lawyer who knows my father and family and one of his close friends since he was a classmate with dad back in the '70s.

I noticed she called someone on the intercom, and then I waited until uncle John came out.

But miss, Mr. Jeffers Senior won't be having your case. Or Junior either, but his son. Which is Mr. Jeffers Senior and that It will be his grandson Micheal. John's son." Receptionist Laura reported to me.

"Are you Pleased with that?" Derek said behind me with anger in his voice.

I always knew he was jealous but never took it to thought or heart.

Micheal is only a few years younger than Jamie and me.

He dated a close friend of ours, but she turned out to be awful towards me. I thought I was going to take her Mikey away from here.

I had no idea why Jamie would be such a b***h. I never did anything, and I guess Jamie got her out of the way to get more people to hate me. I am so glad our friendship is over and done.

I never liked her mother anyway.

John became a dad at Seventeen but didn't know when he became a father.

He knocks up someone his Senior year at the senior bash, and she didn't let him know until he was nineteen while going to college to become a lawyer like his dad and grandpa before him.

There is nothing but lawyers in the Jeffers family, including his other brothers.

Which they are a gang of boys that our lawyers everywhere.

One of them is in Spain, another is in Florida, and the last one beside Uncle John is in New York.

All of them are the best lawyers you can ever hire, and they aren't cheap, that is for sure.

Anyway, back to the Jealous soon-to-be ex-husband.

I looked back and took that smile off of my face.

"Yeah, the sooner we do this, the sooner I will move on with my life, hubby.

Or should I say Ex-Hubby?" I said in a whisper so no one could hear me.

I thought while I was waiting. I have 't seen little Micheal since my Freshmen year in college. He was a Junior in High school.

I looked up, and damn he turned out smoking hot. His big blue eyes and dark hair, more of a lighter brown now than before. 6'2 and lean. Damn, he is hot, and when I looked over towards Derek, I bet I could see steam coming out of his ears.

Jamie was smiling at Micheal and showing off more of her chest to him, and I looked over at them, supposed to be lover birds, and shook my head.

What a stupid slut; she is doing that in front of the man she loves so much.

He goes straight to me and picks me into a bear hug.

"Hey, Bells, how you been, besides coming here and doing something I kept telling you for years now to do," Micheal says.

"Heya, Mikey, how you been last time I heard you are finally settled down now and have a few kids for Unc and your grandpa to spend time with," I said.

I yes, I caved and went on a blind date, and that is the best damn decision I had ever made." he says.

"Why you always touch my wife," Derek says while glaring at Mikey.

"Not anymore. I won't be. That thing over there will be." I said while hugging Mikey back.

"Well, these two made me look like a fool, but not anymore. I am done with both of them and ready to move on with my life. But damn boy, you can be a model if you want. But you went to law school just like your great and grandpa and dad and your uncles did. You became a lawyer like all the rest of the Jeffers in the family did." I said.

"Yeah, I never heard that before" Mikey smirks and winks at the receptionist.

"Bells, I want to introduce to you, my wife," Mikey says.

I noticed her at the desk, blushing and looking away.

"That is your wife?" Jamie says.

"Yeap for about Seven years now," Mikey says.

He goes over there and grabs her hand.

"Honey, your father, and grandfather need me right now. I have to be on the phone. A big case is happening, and they are both working on it." She says.

"Laura baby, this is my good friend Bells. Remember the one I told you about." Mikey said.

"Ooh, hey, nice to finally meet you," she says.

"Pleasure is all mine, Laura, and I am sorry I had to meet in this situation like this. But I am glad you make Mikey happy." I said.

"Yeah, I was shocked he falls for a girl like me," she says while looking away.

'Ooh, baby, you and that innocent look drove me crazy. I can't wait to marry you when I first saw you."Mikey said.

She giggled and smacked his shoulder.

"Honey, let's have lunch after this your favorite place, okay," Mikey says.

She nods her head, and then she is smiling.

"Now, follow me, everyone. Let's get this show on the road," Mikey says.

While we got into the room, I noticed my father and Jamie's father were in the room with us.

"Hey, daddy, why are you doing here," I asked.

He shrugged his shoulders and then looked over towards Jamie's father.

"Beats me. I was in my office when John called Trey and me over here." dad explained.

Jamie looks very nervous.

I noticed Trey had a piece of paper in his hands.

"Now, before we even start, let's wait for my father, Mr. Jeffers, okay?" Mikey says.

I sit beside my father and Jamie's father on either side of me.

Then I wait for whatever is coming.
