The Kidnapped Bride-Chapter 476
Chapter 476: Divorce after five years!
At his stage, Sierra had no words to describe it. She knew that this was the best deal to strike but she was afraid.
Afraid that this step of hers might ruin her life rather than bless it. What will she end up doing then?
When the threat and the unsteady fear were lingering in her heart, it was Jack who had stepped ahead to fill the gap as easily as possible and make her feel calm despite the chaos.
“Don’t take unnecessary tension. You will have a child and I already have a daughter in my hand. The reason I agreed to my parents selecting a girl frame is sole because I need someone to be a mother figure for my daughter Ailey.”
“No one might agree but since you are also in a tight spot, it can benefit both of us. Ailey will also get a baby brother or sister to play with...” Jack had given her an offer hard to resist.
As Sierra bit her lower lip, she couldn’t help but find herself at the post where she had no further option to select except to accept what was actually coming in her direction.
Subconsciously, Sierra’s hands were curled up into a fist, “You appear young...”
.....
The comment brought a faint smile to Jack’s lips who answered back, “Because I married Sarah when I was twenty. It was because we were family friends...and family thought that we both might look good and live a life together..”
“Neither of us actually objected and we got married. After a few years, almost five to six years, we were expecting our first child. She was overjoyed...however....”
Jack had taken the pause to not let himself be emotional too.
Two emotionally disturbed people in the same room won’t be comfortable and weren’t at the righteous place either.
Sierra simply looked at the man who was actually appearing so mighty but still, she can cross the sentiments...
But instead of cutting short the things, Jack had decided to get on the words and complete the story.
“....Unfortunately, God had called her and in return, he gave me Ailey, a part of both of us.” Jack had given his best to give a summarized version in the short form.
Sierra knew that it must be the biggest deal for him to know that the person, with whom he thought of spending the rest of his life and almost starting a family...was now residing in the haven.
‘Aren’t we both two people missing so much in this life?’
As Sierra gave him a small nod, she felt the hesitation crawling under her skin.
It wasn’t only hard for her to realize it but it made her know that even if she wishes to actually take things further, clarification is needed.
Otherwise, many problems are supposed to arrive. Her intentions were clear and she wished to walk the same path too.
“Jack, I will get married to you and raise your daughter Ailey as my own but...” Alice had kept those sharp eyes, “But I want a divorce after five years. Five years means five years...you will go to your lane and I will go to my lane...”
“You want a mother to handle your child in the initial days, I’m willing to be one if you are willing to give my child your name too.”
Sierra’s remark and demand didn’t match his standards either. “Just this?” 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚
In return for this, he got a strong nod from her side too.
As if, she knew what stepping on was and there was a dead fear in her wish too.
Initially, Jack had not replied despite his heart constantly calculating the pros and the cons of the situation.
Neither did Sierra actually alarm him and had asked him to take his time to cope with the answer since she isn’t in any hurry either.
But just when Sierra was ready to walk out of the space, did she hear the word from behind her. “Done, we can get a divorce after a few years but...”
“Give me a chance to pursue you. Who knows if you can forget about your ex-boyfriend in this lifetime and wish to continue this marriage..with our family?”
Hearing this, Sierra turned around to stare at the certain person, who was standing there with this raised chin. “Are You Saying this...”
“Let me get you over your breakup. Give me a chance too., Sierra..” Jack’s pleas were actually making her heart unmoved.
She knew that he does act like any other gentleman but there was no space for romance in her life anymore.
She was done with being rolled over and over.
Now was her to raise her self will..but the child in her stomach will never let her forget about Charles in this lifetime.
He is the father of her child, someone she left behind just to save his life from everything in this world.
Sierra’s narrowed eyes had kept on narrowing. She had turned around to look at his face as if to know if he was joking with her or not.
If he was, she must show him his place too.
But he didn’t act out of his boundaries till now, which held respect in Sierra’s heart. As Sierra was still not able to comprehend many things, Jack was already determined.
He knew what he wanted from now on... and surely, he will make sure to not leave any stone unturned to have her..and mend her broken heart too.
Unfortunately, there was no trace of unhappiness or hesitation in his actions too. “Well..not a bad option...”
“But remember always that I will never fall for your tricks ever. My heart beats for someone else..”
“We will see this..when the time’s come. Time heals everything..and I’m sure that you will heal too and give me a chance.”
