My Ex-Husband Wants Me Back by Cheryl Moore
Chapter 2

Chapter 2 

Katherine was actually unfazed by Kiara’s provocation and mockery. 

After all, Katherine was the one who had all the protection she needed. 

According to the Levine family’s rules, as long as the woman did nothing wrong, man from the Levine family could not ask for a divorce. 

the 

That meant as long as Katherine did not do anything wrong to Christopher and did not file for a divorce, Kiara would not be able to become a member of the Levine family even if she was pregnant. And the child Kiara gave birth to would only ever be an illegitimate child. 

However, ever since Katherine had married into the Levine family, she had always felt like a lowly concubine who never received much attention from her husband. Only she knew how torturous it felt. 

At this moment, Katherine started wondering what the point of enduring all that for the past two years was. 

Tar 

protect the last vestige of dignity she had in her, Katherine said stubbornly, “I get it 

now. 

With that, she turned around and left. 

Christopher watched her walk away. Although she looked desolate and helpless, she seemed to also show resoluteness and determination that was never seen in her before. 

He took a step forward subconsciously. At that moment, a hint of compassion emerged. in his heart. 

However, he quickly snapped back to his senses. Recalling all the tricks she played on him, he took only a few seconds to return to his cold and arrogant demeanor. 

Meanwhile, the banquet was still ongoing, but Katherine was not in the mood to put on 

an act anymore. 

She returned to her room and calmed herself down. After that, she sat at the dressing table and touched up her makeup. 

Pretending as if nothing happened, she walked down the stairs calmly and approached Maxwell, saying softly, “Grandpa, I’m not feeling well. I’d like to go back and get some 

rest. 

The moment Maxwell heard she was not feeling well, he panicked and called out to his grandson, “Christopher, your wife isn’t feeling well. Hurry and send her home.” 

Chapter 2 

Not wanting everyone’s mood to be spoiled because of her, Katherine rejected Maxwell politely and had the driver send her home instead. 

On the way home, she couldn’t help but feel a little lost. She felt as though she was a beggar throughout the entire relationship and realized it was now time to let it go. 

Seeing as how Christopher treated Kiara like the apple of his eye normally, he would certainly use every method he could think of to force Katherine to file a divorce now that Kiara was pregnant. 

It was true that she could rely on the Levine family’s rule and the support of Maxwell. 

However, even if she could keep him as her husband, she could not win over his heart. She had nothing to lose by giving up such a relationship. 

As soon as she reached home, she took a bath. For the past two years, she had been constantly in a cautious state and was always mentally tense. 

Now that she finally figured everything out, she felt as though a heavy burden was lifted off her shoulders. 

It was an amazing feeling, and she fell asleep soon. 

Suddenly, she woke up in the middle of the night. 

A heavy weight was bearing down on her. She could not breathe, and she could feel someone’s hot breath on her ears. 

Hearing the sound of the familiar breathing, she realized it was Christopher. 

He had come home. He did not remain at the Levine manor, nor did he go over to Kiara’s. 

However, she realized something was off about Christopher. She instinctively tugged. her silk pajamas and leaped out of the bed on her bare feet as if Christopher was nothing but a pervert. 

When Christopher saw her reaction, he thought she was pulling the same trick on him again. 

While he was on the way home earlier, he felt something was wrong with his b*dy. 

The truth was, he had let his guard down, as it was a family event that night. 

Little did he expect that elderly people could be rather bold and that Maxwell had drugged him.

Chapter 2 

Perhaps Maxwell had seen how determined Christopher was. Thus, the former decided to take matters into his own hands, wanting to help Katherine salvage their marriage. 

At this moment, Katherine stated plainly, “Christopher, let’s get a divorce.” 

Hearing her reject him and ask for a divorce made Christopher feel inexplicable frustration and displeasure. 

Looking at the state he was in, Katherine realized that she must not let him have his way, or he would surely attack her. 

Not knowing where she got her courage from, she mustered all her strength and him a violent slap. 

“Listen up, Christopher!” she roared at the top of her lungs. 

She then uttered each syllable loudly and clearly, “I want a divorce!”

Christopher grabbed the slender arm she had raised at him and forcefully pushed her back, causing her to stagger a few steps ba 

backward. 

“You’re really getting bolder. You’ve crossed the line over and over again. Are you sure you want to get a divorce?” 

After receiving such a brutal slap, he was more or less sober now. 

“The company that is being run by your father and that useless brother of yours has been on the brink of bankruptcy. Do you think it can survive without my family’s support? Believe it or not, I can make it close down for good tomorrow,” he stated. 

With that, he turned around and walked to the bathroom to take a cold shower and only came back out half an hour later. 

The truth was that Katherine could not be bothered about her own family anymore. Not only did they fail to manage the company properly, but they even gave up their daughter just to save that company from bankruptcy. 

Thus, in Christopher’s eyes, she was just a woman who would do anything to gain what she wanted. 

For the past two years, he never listened to her, no matter how hard she tried to explain things to him. 

He was certain she was simply someone who plotted a scheme to get into his bed and was nothing but a materialistic woman. 

However, it did not matter anymore. Katherine believed she had done her part for the Xander family by giving herself to Christopher for two years in exchange for two years 

O 

of stability for her family. That should be enough to repay her father, Gregory Xander, for raising her. 

As she thought of that, she instantly felt a sense of relief. 

If there was no trust between two people, then there was no point in trying to make any more explanations. 

Christopher wore a look of disdain and smugness as he came out of the bathroom. “Are you really willing to give it all up, Katherine? You’ve put in so much effort to be married into the Levine family. Are you really willing to give up all the wealth and glory?” 

Christopher was a well–known person. Therefore, there was never a shortage of women around him, and he was also faithful to his mistress. 

He was only saying those words because he felt it was not the right time to get a as he would not be able to explain it to his grandfather. 

divorce, 

Whenever he thought of how Maxwell had played such a cheap trick on him, he felt deeply frustrated. 

If it was not for the effect of the drugs, he would not have been interested in Katherine, nor would he have been slapped by her. 

“You’d better continue acting the role of my good wife. I can give you anything you want, except for my affection,” he said. 

This was simply his way to stall for time, so Kiara could give birth to their baby peacefully. 

If Maxwell were to find out about Kiara’s child right now, there was a high possibility of Kiara losing the baby. 

“Just as I expected. Even scumbags have moments when they treat relationships seriously, Katherine mused. 

Unfortunately, she was never going to let his wish come true. 

“Thank you for your graciousness, Mr. Levine, but I think it’s better if I move out earlier. That way, you and your first crush can be together,” she taunted. 

Upon hearing that, Christopher almost choked on his saliva. 

Katherine knew that apart from Maxwell, no one in the Levine family liked her. 

In fact, all of them treated her like a joke. 

Hence, all she wanted at that moment was to end the relationship as quickly as possible. 

Chapter 2 

She dashed to her computer, tapped the keys furiously, and prepared the divorce papers in just a few minutes. 

Picking up a pen, she signed her name hurriedly without the slightest hesitation. 

When she was done signing it, she handed the papers to Christopher. It was all done cleanly and efficiently. 

Christopher had attempted to make her stay once. At that moment, he could sense the determination in her that differed from her gentle and humble demeanor before. 

He glanced at the content of the papers, realizing she did not want anything. All she wanted was to leave, which left him quite surprised. 

When he was done reading the document, he signed his name with a flourish and threw it aside. 

Seeing he was about to leave, Katherine quickly added. “See you at City Hall tomorrow at nine o’clock in the morning.”
