AFTER BETRAYAL, I RETURNED WITH CUTE BABIES

Lyon's POV****

I sat right there at the wedding, my gaze fixed on Chloe. At first, it felt like a dream to me, I thought to myself that there was no way this was possible.

My mouth was wide open, I couldn't care less about that, the ex that I had thrown away was getting married to my boss, how was that possible or was this karma?

A few months after Chloe had left after signing the divorce documents, Sherry had lost the baby she was carrying. I felt so bitter with the thought that all of this was my fault, to begin with.

Chloe had stood by me through thick and thin, all that I should have done was to be a little patient with her, but Sherry had easily crawled up, and sprouted lies about Chloe and with the fact that she was barren, it was easy for me to be deceived and I was enchanted by her beauty.

While Chloe was five years feet tall, Sherry was more endowed with huge curves, she was the typical definition of sexy, and it was difficult for any man not to want to have a taste of that.

I tried searching for Chloe everywhere and spoke to her best friend Sherry but she claimed not to have any clue regarding her new location, that was devastating for me, so devastating that I felt my world was crumbling.

But just yesterday, I had received Intel that she was back in town, there was this flush of relief inside of me while I thought that this was finally going to be it; winning Chloe back, but my world seemed to have crumbled that moment she walked down the aisle and I knew I wasn't the groom, she was getting married to my boss, to the richest man in the city, how was that happening.

Everyone stared at her, there was admiration in their eyes, she was the typical example of perfection.

Her soft and silky wedding gown flew behind her while she glided down the aisle and as she stood right before Mr. Richard, he was dressed in a handmade designer suit, there was love, lust, and passion in his eyes as he stared at her.

I clenched my fist hard, my heart was pounding heavily, consumed with rage and jealousy, it was so difficult for me to take.

"Ms. Chloe, do you take Mr. Richard here to be your lawful wedded husband whom you will love in sickness and in health until death do you part?"

"Yes, I do!" She responded, her voice soft as silk, this was my woman, a perfect woman for me yet I was stupid to have let her slip away.

"Mr. Richard, do you take Ms. Chloe here to be your lawful wedded wife, to love and to cherish in sickness and in health until death do you part?"

"Yes I do"

"You may now go ahead to ready your vows" the priest insisted, the vows were presented to them, and Chloe had a warm smile on her face, so beautiful that I felt enchanted and could recall the first time that I met her before we got married.

"Richard, I don't have much to say to you, but I just want to remind you that I have been through a lot, you are my backbone and no matter what we face in the future, as long as I have you, I know that everything is going to be alright"

She expressed, a trickle of tears rolling down her cheek, Richard had pulled out a handkerchief to immediately wipe it off.

This was setting me off the edge, I clenched my fist so hard that it was starting to hurt, yet the hurt that I was feeling deep inside of me was more intense.

"Chloe, remember the first time that I met you, I told you that you have been through a lot and I told you that I wanted to wipe all of that away, I am going to take away all of the pains that you felt in the past and make you the happiest woman alive"

He assured her, his eyes pinned to her as he stared at her with so much affection, I froze there wondering how this was happening, how I let Chloe slip away from me.

"By the powers vested on me by the state, I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may now kiss your bride!"

The officiating priest announced, and everyone widened their gaze in admiration. Chloe tilted forward to him, it was so hard for me to watch.

I shut my eyes and once she had drifted away from him after the long kiss, her gaze briefly locked with mine, I could see the smirk on her lips, she knew exactly what she was doing, and that alone was getting on my nerves.

"Lyon, let's get out of here!" Sherry suddenly tapped on me, for a moment there, I had forgotten that she was next to me, even though it felt disgusting to me at that moment.

"How can you say that, the ceremony is not yet over!" I alerted her, but the frown on her face deepened seeing that I was not interested in her words.

"Who cares if the ceremony is over or not, can't you see that this event is an attempt to mock us, Chloe must have seduced him and you should alert him about what happened."

She insisted but even the sound of her voice was annoying to me, I wasn't paying attention to her, my entire gaze fixed on Chloe and as soon as I noticed Richard walking away from her to attend to his guest that flew all the way here, I scurried towards her.

Standing right before Chloe at that moment, she was an epitome of beauty, I had no idea what to say, but I knew that I had to use my words, those words that she always fell for in the past to get her back.
