Chapter 24 It’s All in The Past Now
Vincent couldn’t bear the shame of losing that match. How could he lose to a woman with so many
people watching!
“It’s just money! I have more than I need anyways!” He muttered.
Rachel snorted. “Remember this well! Sooner or later, it’ll be mine!” Vincent declared.
“Dream on!” Rachel spat.
Vincent stomped off in a huff.
Rachel was in a much better mood. She tugged onto Elisa’s hand, “Let’s go, dear!”
Elisa followed her without a word and they both hopped into the car. Rachel place both hands on the
wheel and asked her, “Shall we go eat? Do you need to make dinner for your husband tonight?”
Elisa hesitated before replying, “Let’s go out.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRachel was about to start the car when she froze in surprise, “Really?” She stared at Elisa.
Elisa nodded. Rachel stared at her with wide eyes. “Are you serious? You’re not pulling my leg, are
you? Every single time I’ve invited you out for dinner, you’ve not been able to because you had to make
dinner for your husband. You kept telling me how you wanted to stay at home and be a good wife. You
couldn’t stay out too late, nor could you stay over at mine. What’s with the sudden change?”
Elisa pursed her lips in annoyance.
She hated herself for wasting so much time on Gareth.
Rachel felt that something was off. “Isn’t he treating you well?” She asked Elisa worriedly.
Elisa shook her head. “Let’s go to your place for dinner?”
Noticing that Elisa was trying to change the subject, Rachel grabbed her hand. “Tell me the truth. What
happened? Did you guys fight? How could he treat you like this?!”
Elisa chuckled. “When have we ever fought?”
How could they fight when they barely spoke to each other?
Rachel frowned, probably remembering the same. “What’s happened then?” She asked concerned.
“We’re divorced.”
Rach is my best friend. I can’t hide it from her.
“What?!”
Rachel’s hand tightened around the wheel. Her eyes practically bulging in shock. She would have
leaped to her feet if the space allowed for it.
“The divorce papers have been signed. I’m just waiting for him to find the time to go get the actual
certificate.”
Elisa was calm. She had thought that it would hurt to talk about it but… She was as unaffected as ever.
Rachel blinked. It looked like Elisa had finally given up.
Rachel stared at her in disbelief, “You would have given your life for him! That was how much you

Elisa was quiet. But her silence was an answer in itself.
Rachel believed her. She almost trembled with happiness. “Great! Okay! Tonight we are going to
celebrate! We’ll celebrate your newfound freedom!!”
Elisa smiled slightly, “Shouldn’t you be comforting me?
“Elisa, let me tell you something. That man never deserved you! I tried to talk sense into you to divorce
him ages ago! He might be the most eligible bachelor around town, but that doesn’t mean that
everyone is in love with him! You should have left him when you realised that he had zero feelings for
you, instead of dragging things on!” Rachel spat.
Elisa blinked. That’s true… Rach had been trying to convince me to get a divorce for a long time.
She chuckled, “You’re right! Thankfully, it’s all in the past now.”
“Let’s go! Hurry! Decide on somewhere quick! I’ll make a few calls to some of our friends! Tonight, we
will celebrate!”
