After Divorce I Became A Zillionaire

Nicklaus Michaelson

I sat beside my window looking at the sunset, while the doctor’s words at the hospital replayed in my head constantly

“I’m sorry but I don’t think you can walk again it’ll only take a miracle for that to happen” I know I brought this upon myself, but at least I could have tried so many doctors and hospitals, at least one may have a solution for me, mom and dad has been pestering me to do that but I refused to I feel like this is the price I had to pay for what I did to Ava

I fucking missed her so much, she was my childhood best friend, we used to love each other a lot how did we get here, when she left the country years back I still loved her but then Sherly came and everything changed

Every day of my life I sat here I kept asking Myself how much of a fool I was to get played without even knowing. I lost a diamond while chasing a stone. Karma is really dealing with me. I didn’t know why I never listened nor looked at Ava, I’m the loyal goat type of a man

I was in a relationship with Sherly and when Ava came from nowhere I felt betrayed, I wanted to make her pay for destroying my life but I ended up destroying my own life, look where I am

How could Sherly do this to me? I’ve shown her nothing but love, I fucking showered her with love, and care I put her first over myself, I did a lot of wicked things to Ava just to please Sherly at the end of the day she did that to me?

Do I deserve that? Hell yeah, I was a fool and even Xavier was fooling me as well. All along he was dating Sherly behind my back and I didn’t know what more evil have they done to me that I didn’t know. What could be worse or more painful than betrayal?

And then that fateful day that I saw them…I was saddened, angered, and felt used. I couldn’t control my angst, I allowed it to cloud my sense of thought that I could not even handle the wheel. My body became to paralyzed to listen to my sense organs and then I lost control of my own system, I crashed into a car, and then here I am on a wheelchair this is the result of my foolishness

I was still in thought when I saw a brand new G-Wagon driving into the mansion, but I didn’t bother who it was; it might probably be one of Madam Perky’s visitors. Since this happened to me the only people that ever visited me were my parents and Madam Perly who never left my side all this while although then she used to warn me to stop treating Ava the way I was doing but I never listened to her, I paid deaf ears and put Sherly first in everything I do not knowing I was digging my own grave and slowly sinking deep into it.

I heard a clicking sound on my door and definitely expected it to be Madam Perky, I heard her footsteps as she walked in but I didn’t bother to turn

“Madam Perky I told you I wanted to be left alone”

“Long time no see Nicklaus Michaelson ” I know that voice! It echoed in my head like a spinning wheel. I’ll always recognize the voice of the devil and slowly I turned to behold her mocking face. How did I fall in love with this ? Was I blind all along

“See you’re doing good huh?” She smirked gesturing to my wheelchair

“Leave Sherly while I’m still nice”

“Or? What more can you do? I mean you’re crippled remember?” She chuckled with a raised side eyebrow

“I’m not cripple, I’m paralyzed” I gritted out

“What difference does it mean it’s all the same cause you’re still useless, hahaha!”

I fought back my anger, tears, and the stinging feeling of betrayal that was surging through me,

“What are you doing here?” I asked calmly

“To see how pathetic you look of course, mtich…. it seems you’re more useless than I expected”

I nodded my head taking in all of her insults, I deserve it, look at the devil I once loved, and adored

“Can I ask you something?” I muttered looking into her eyes

“You can” She smirk walking to my wine bar, she poured herself a glass of whisky, I roll around my wheel facing her

“Sherly, did you ever love me? Was there even a time you loved me?”

“You really wanna know?” She asked sipping from the cup of whisky, and I nodded my head …my heart was reverberating as I wait for her answer

“Never! Not even for once did I love you, I was dating Xavier and when he complained about you not helping his company that’s about to go bankrupt, we made a plan and I bumped into you at the mall that day, and you were so lost in my chance that you fell harder than you could ever imagine……you wanna know more”

“Enough!” I yelled holding onto my head,

“Ohh no darling you might want to know the most interesting part of it”

“What could be more evil than the one you have done!?”

“More honey trust me” She laughed finished the whole whisky and slammed the glass cup on the table

“I started stealing from you, I stole so much money from your company and gave all of it to Xavier, remember when your company was having problems? I was the brain behind it….. hahaha!”

“Sherly!!”

“Shhhhh…. sweetheart more is coming stop making noise” She hissed

“And then your little smart pants of a wife found out about it, she was the one that revived your company even without you knowing and you dared do that to her? Poor you”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Sherly you’re evil”

“Ohh come on we are the same, remember what you did to Ava, she didn’t deserve it, bro, she loves your fucking ass but you were busy chasing the evil that wants to destroy you”

“Leave,” I said calmly turning away from her,

“You’re lucky though, cause when she divorced you I saw that as an opportunity to start from where I stop and milk you dry, so you won’t have the face-to-face Xavier in the business world, but your seriousness got the best of you and you found out about us, that was your luck”

I couldn’t say any more words, I was more broken than I was before. Right now I feel like dying

“This chair suites you for life, hope to see you more on it enjoy” She slammed the door shut and her footsteps fade away, I heard the door open and I know it’s Madam Perky

“Nicklaus” She called walking into the room, she came to me and I couldn’t hold it anymore, I wrapped my arms around her hugging her so tight

“Please tell Ava I’m sorry, she doesn’t deserve any of that”
