Chapter 83 Brother
Now, Elise has returned to Matida’s side, which makes her stronger and stronger. She has to be even more fierce and tough when facing Mr. Arthur, and today she will meet him at home and speak her mind.
Recently, Arthur is a bit busy with work at the company, it seems that everything has stabilized again, it makes him not have much time for his wife. He is also curious to know what she did during her long trip when she and a friend had previously planned to go together.
Today Matida has returned to Mr. Arthur’s house, when he just returned home, he saw his beloved wife and was extremely happy. Arthur was about to reach out to hug Matida when she hurriedly signaled him to stop:
“Arthur, that’s enough. I don’t have time to joking with you.”
“Why did you say that? Did something happen?”
“Stop pretending. I am so tired of being a weak woman, suffering because of her unfaithful husband.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Seems like you still insist on acting to the end? All right, I’ll win straight for once.”
Matida threw the papers of Mr. Arthur down on the table and also the pictures that Matida took when he met the man secretly.
Arthur looked at the evidence in front of him, he was extremely surprised because they were discovered by Matida. He changed his face and said:
“You are stronger than I thought. I underestimated my wife.”
“No, no, from now on I am no longer your wife. I met you today to divorce my kind husband. He should finish this game and go to jail to continue his new journey.”
Arthur approached Matida, looked at her provocatively:
“You can’t do that to me. Because everything I do, it’s all because of you. Winston doesn’t deserve it, he has everything, a good job, a good family, a beautiful wife, etc. And I don’t, if I didn’t help him send the letter to you that day, you were my wife now. A close friend? I hate being close friends with you, because of that, it made me cowardly, not brave enough to confess my feelings for you. You don’t even know how much I love you unrequitedly.”
“I know that, but I have avoided your feelings, because I love Winston, not you, I only see you as my best friend. I don’t think you still didn’t give up and even planned to collude with others to kill your friend.”
Arthur took Matida’s hand to kiss, but she quickly withdrew her hand:
“We should stop, if we continue, I’m afraid I can’t forgive myself. Please accept my divorce petition. I really want to find my way out right now. I’ve found Elise, I’m going to live with my daughter, I’m going back home today to get some stuff and make my decision on you.”
Arthur was about to say something but Matida stopped him:
“I know you stole the evidence from the police station and hid it somewhere else. But I will still find them to bring the perpetrators of this case to light.”
Arthur’s face darkened, he pulled her:
“Don’t do that to me. I was really wrong, I just hope you forgive me.”
“Don’t say anything more, Arthur, my patience has a limit. I was too weak and dependent on others for a long time. So try to get the best lawyer to defend you.”
Arthur was silent and did not say anything and let Matida leave the house, she asked the servant Menka to take the remaining necessary items to bring to the house where Jane stayed with her. Matida sat in the car, thinking to herself:
“The most important thing now is to find the lost evidence to expose this whole case. But where could it be? If they don’t have a clue, this whole case will sink into oblivion.”
Matida sat in the car looking at the scenery outside with endless lines of thoughts. She forced herself to act fast, because Mr. Arthur was an old fox, she didn’t want to lose again to that man who killed her husband.”
Matida sat in the car to return to Ita villa, where Elise was living with her, it was originally the old house that burned before, now it has been repaired and rebuilt with the new name Ita. She had just entered the living room when she saw Oswat sitting there reading the newspaper and drinking tea. She hugged him and said:
“Did you wait long for me?”
“No, I just arrived too. When you sent me your new home address yesterday, I was at school completing an essay on a test. My studies have been very busy these past few days, I need time and focus to review more because I have to take the final assessment exam. So today, I took advantage of the empty afternoon of class to come here to visit you.”
Matida looked at Oswat lovingly and asked:
“Have you contacted your father?”
“Still, but my dad is busy with work these days so I don’t talk to him much.”
Matida sadly said:
“I wish you were my son, not that traitor’s son, I am also confused as to how to treat you.”
“What happened mom?”
Matida let go of Oswat, she sat down at the table and said:
“I have divorced your father, from now on I will live here with my daughter Elise.”
“Why did you do that?”
“He was one of the accomplices in killing my husband, and at the same time he lied to me about everything. Arthur does not have amnesia, he is completely normal, he faked that medical record to make fun of me. Do you think I can go on living with that man and forgive him?”
“Oh my god, is your father that kind of person. I don’t believe it, you misunderstood him.”
“No, it’s true. I have proof.”Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Matida gave Oswat a file containing medical records and photographs. He watched it in amazement, he was shocked to receive this proof.
“These are just a few, besides the fact that the evidence lost at the police station was all done by him, they were lost. But I will find it again no matter what.”
Oswat sadly said:
“He was terrible at treating you like that. I didn’t think my father would be such a lousy bastard. And don’t be too sad, if you don’t feel happy, you should go on a trip for a while.”
“I’m fine, I still have to take care of Elise and make up for the emotional and mental trauma she’s suffered all this time.”
Oswat heard Matida say this and hesitated to ask:
“So can I come live with you and Elise? I can help you take care of her.”
Happy Matida says:
“Really? Do you really want that? That way I and Elise will be happy. I still think you’ll move out and live alone at the mansion Arthur gave it to you.”
Oswat shook his head and replied:
“The place is pretty dull if you live alone. I still enjoy being with my family.”
Matida suddenly remembered something and said:
“You met Elise at the Lawrence Manor, at that time everything was chaotic with my mixed emotions. I took her away from that place quickly, so you didn’t have the opportunity to meet and greet your young sister directly. She will be very happy to see you.”
Oswat smiled approvingly.
“Yes, me too.”
She looked at the servant Menka.
“Call the lady down, I want talk.”
Menka nodded, she and her servant Lemi went upstairs to call Elise down. Jane was still not used to the name Elise, so sometimes she didn’t know the servant was calling her. Jane was passionately practicing drawing watercolors when Lemi came in and said:
“Miss, you need to change into a new set of clothes, Lady Matida wants to meet you in the living room.”
Jane looked at the clothes she was wearing on her body that were smeared in a few places, she happily said:
“I don’t think it’s necessary, my mother told me to take it easy at home.”
So Jane put down her paintbrush, and happily went downstairs with her two servants. She did not know that besides her mother, her brother Oswat was also present.
Jane was quite embarrassed when she first met her brother in such an untidy manner. Jane gave Matida a hug and asked confusedly:
“Who is this, mother?”
Matida happily says:
“This is Oswat, your brother. Oswat is Arthur’s son. A husband of mine before, but now I have divorced him. Oswat is still my son now.”
Oswat gave Jane a hug to say hello:
“Welcome home, my sister.”
