Chapter 5

Tobias couldn't believe his ears.

Amara, the woman who had claimed to love him for the past 6 years and always stuck to him like gum, had filed for a divorce even before he could. This fact kept disturbing him.

He was the one meant to file for a divorce! And not the gentle wife he remembered!

"You're really testing my patience, Amara." He threatened, eyes cold and voice colder. " you know what I'm capable of."

"It's not a test, Tobias. It's a fact that is about to happen," Amara retorted, not at all intimidated by his words and demeanor.

"So you're sure you want to go against me, is that it?" Tobias said dangerously.

"What are you gonna do? Destroy me, ruin my reputation, destroy Melanie's business, or something along the lines of that?"Amara laughed coldly. Without waiting for Tobias to speak, Amara warned him."I dare you, Tobias. Try to lay even a finger on the people I hold dare and you'll see just how that'd turn out."

Tobias looked at Amara's cold gaze, as if he was looking at a stranger. Was this really the wife who had served him for six years by his side? Or she was a disguised viper from the beginning?

Over the past six years, she had just been pretending! Pretending to gain his grandfather's sympathy, and after his grandfather passed away, her true colors were exposed.

Thinking of this, Tobias' eyes darkened further. "Grandpa has passed away. So you've decided to tear off your mask now?"

"There's a difference between shedding skin and becoming the real me. Try me and I'll show you just who the real me is.""Amara looked at him and said coldly.

"Amara...please don't be angry. If you're willing to tell us who the man you fell for is, I think Tobias would definitely agree to give you more compensation," Celeste interjected.

Upon hearing Celeste's words, Tobias immediately thought of something. He grabbed Amara's arm, his expression darkening as he said, "So you think you've found yourself a new sugar daddy, and that's why you're defying me?"

Amara shot Celeste, that vile snake, a fierce glare, but she didn't care what Tobias thought. If this could make him agree to the divorce faster, she was willing to play the villain.

She shook off Tobias' grip on her arm and said coldly, "It has nothing to do with you. I've already signed the divorce agreement. Now, take your whore and leave! Don't ruin my mood!"

After saying that, Amara pushed past them and went to find Melanie, who was conveniently walking over from the booth, having likely noticed the commotion.

She didn't hesitate to give Tobias and Celestine a nasty look as she asked. "What are they doing here?"

"I don't care and I don't wanna know. Come on Mel, let's go elsewhere, I can't stand the air being polluted by the stench of sluts and assholes."

Without saying another word, or looking back at Tobias, Amara took Melanie's hand and walked off.

Only after she had walked away did Tobias clench his jaws and allow the impact of all her words show on his face and might I tell you, he did not look pleased in the least bit.

"Toby?" Celestine gently called out, wanting to snap his attention away from staring at where Amara had stood.

But Tobias was having none of it.

He was pissed, irritated, and enraged beyond words.

Who was Amara to treat him like she just had done?

File a divorce against him? And even threaten him?

Just the mere thought of what she had done had him seething and without hesitation, he fished out his phone and dialed the number of his assistant.

The line only rang for a few seconds before his assistant, Dean, answered the line.

"Yes Sir?"

"Have you gathered the necessary documents needed to ensure a smooth purchase of the Woodlands Cosmetics?" He asked.

"...about that Sir," Came Dean's answer, voice filled to the brim with hesitation.

Tobias narrowed his eyes, feeling his temper rising. “What’s the issue, Dean? Can't you even handle this little thing?”

“The acquisition could have been completed smoothly today, but...Ms. Woods had sold the business to someone mysterious and I'm still trying to get in touch with the one.”

“Enough. Send me the necessary information I need regarding the business group that now holds the Woodlands’ rights.” He demanded.

“Y-yes Sir. Immediately.”

Once Tobias was done with the call, he was marching towards the exit, ignoring Celestine who had called out to him.

Just as he stepped out of the club, he caught sight of her wavy brown hair and black gown, back facing him as she stood alone in front of a black GMC Yukon.

Beside her was an old man, dressed in a well-tailored suit and he handed Amara a thin object, which Tobias quickly identified as a premium black card. He was more than sure that Celestine’s words were true.

It was no wonder she rejected the fifty million. Amara had gotten herself a sugar daddy!

How dare she! She's still wearing the title of his wife!

Tobias wanted to confront Amara but the car drove off before he could get her.

Well, if she thought she was going to get away with her dirty deeds, then she had another thing coming.

For the second time this night, Tobias pulled out his phone. Except the person who he called wasn’t his assistant, but rather a private investigator.

“Mr. Larsen,” The person answered.

“I want a detailed file on Amara Miller, everything, her current lifestyle, where she has been to, who she’s been in contact with, and what she’s been up to.

"You have twenty-four hours to get that file to me or else you can say goodbye to the life you’ve built here in London.”

“Y-yes sir!”

“Good.”

With that, Tobias ended the call and stared darkly at where the car had been.

His wife might think she’s gotten away with cheating, but soon enough, she was going to regret her decision.

Eileen Goff was a nobody, scrubbing diner tables to survive while her greedy family bled her dry. On the eve of her twentieth birthday, the government's mandatory marriage algorithm matched her with a spouse. It wasn't a plumber or a teacher.
