Ex-Wife by Mirah Selim (interesting books to read in english .txt) 📗

"Damn my back." He mumbled making me look at him. I snorted.

"See I told you to be careful your old bones can't take this much stress." He threw me his famous nasty glare. He hates it when I call him old and weak.

"Don't tempt me, son. I can still break your bones using mine so shut up." I rolled my eyes before tiredly yawning.

"Don't tell anyone I slept with you in the same bed," I said only to earn a disgusted look from him.

"Yeah like I will tell people how 56 years old man slept holding his 33 years whimpering son. Right." He and his sarcasm sometimes get on my nerves.

Again rolling my eyes I stood up from the bed and he did the same but then a question came to my mind.

"Father. Why. I mean why suddenly you decided to talk to me." He smiled a little shaking his head.

"I didn't. I wasn't going to till someone's words forced me." I looked at him in curiosity as he stepped closer to me.

"I must say, son. You got a gem for a wife." My eyes instantly widened hearing his words. He chuckled at my expressions placing his hand on my shoulder.

"Come on buddy now you don't think I wouldn't know what you were doing all this time." I signed scrunching my nose up a little.

"Your keeping tabs on me." He scoffed.

"You wish. I also got a letter from Mia and through that, I knew you will try to find a wife. She wanted me to make sure that you wouldn't choose someone not worthy of being Mrs Storm and Alexander's mother." I chuckled sadly.

"She didn't trust me even in her last times," I said dropping my head in sadness.

"No son. She just wanted you to move on and for that, Of course, a girl should be someone who could help you move on and I can see you without any effort got a diamond." I looked at him with a frown. His lips were curved into a mischievous smile.

"Amelia is the one who told me how much I am hurting you by ignoring you. She saw through your eyes son."

I stood there stared at my father while he narrated what Amelia said to him. My heartbeat with every second increased hearing his words. I wasn't shocked because she asked my father to talk to me instead she saw my pain.

Even through my emotionless face and eyes, she read me so well that she got rid of one of the biggest pain of mine. She saw my longing gaze on my father.

She cares for me.

I licked my dried up lips before feeling two palms being placed on my shoulders. I looked into my father's eyes who was already looking at me with soft gaze.

"Don't waste this chance. This time my son. You got a star in your hand who is shining brighter than you can imagine. You may be married to her for Alexander but you still have time. Sometimes we have to move on without forgetting our past and trust me you both needs each other. Each other's support."

"She's hurt and you're too. Just embrace her and trust me one day you will bless the day you chose to hold her back. Don't let her go, son. You got a gem right in front of your eyes. Don't lose it."

I sucked on my breathing taking his words in. But how can I? I love my Mia and thinking about Amelia how can I?

"Trust me. Once you will decide to hold her back and want to be with her. Love will eventually enter both of your souls. You just have to try. That girl wouldn't but my son you can. And you should. The rest is your decision."

Saying that he patted my shoulder walking out. I slowly shrink to my bed sitting up with a big and deep frown plastered my face. Shit, father why did you make me so confused.

Slowly I let my thoughts wander around that woman. She's indeed a gem. Strong, kind, caring, and beautiful. A full damn package. A sigh left from my lips remembering how much she's attracting me towards her day by day.

"Tell me, Mia. Should I do what you asked me? Should I try my luck?" I know how bad fate I always had. I don't have any expectations anymore but I don't know what to do anymore.

What if I would never be able to replace her ex-husband. What if I again faced what I did before by loving Mia. What should I do? What.

Should I try to win her? For my son and myself.

Should I.
