Billionaire husband's pursuit for his wife

Nina is wasted. She could hardly stand on her own.

"If you ever dared to even look at my wife the wrong way, you are going to regret it" Theo fumed and pushed the man away.

Nina is swaying on her feet unsteadily. Theo walked towards her and lifted her in his arms with a displeased frown.

"You, let me go" Nina demanded and pointed her finger which is intended to poke at Theo, but she poked everywhere around him but not him. "You are wasted. How much did you drink?" he muttered with a frown.

Nina giggled at his question.

"I drank this many" she showed how much by moving both her palms as far as she could.

Theo gritted his teeth.

"I can see that. May I know why?" he asked sarcastically.

Nina giggled again.

"We are celebrating her victory" Ella supplied helpfully.

Theo's frown deepened.

'Are they talking about me? Is she considering a victory not to contact me for a whole week?' he suspected.

"What kind of Victory miss?" Jeremiah asked curiously.

Ella looked at him with a bright smile.

"Well, she made her EX husband sweat" Ella giggled as if it was a joke. She stressed the word Ex, much to Jeremiah and Liam's amusement. Theo became grumpy after he heard what Ella just said. She didn't literally mean it, and none of them understood what she was referring to. "Then she should celebrate. He was not happy that his EX wife stopped texting him" Jeremiah supplied foolishly.

Ella giggled and Jeremiah joined her. Liam face palmed himself at their stupidity.

Theo is on the verge of losing his shit. While Nina is grinning proudly.

"You used to claim that you can't live without me. Now you look so happy after you signed the divorce. Look at you, celebrating your so-called victory over me" he muttered with displeasure. Nina looked into his eyes deeply and pinched his cheek cheekily.

"I used to love you so much, Theo. But you broke my heart. You choose Her over me. I am deeply hurt because of you. Of course I should celebrate my victory. Now you live your life, I will live mine" she declared in her half drunk and half sober state.

He is stunned to hear the sadness in her voice. His guilt reared it's ugly head. He judged her based on other people's opinions, which he usually never do. But in her case, he did.

He sighed heavily and looked at his friends who are watching him as if he suddenly became an alien. He is feeling weird too. He ignored their curious gazes.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

"I am taking Nina home. Liam, can you drop Miss Vincent home?" Theo asked Liam.

Liam looked at Ella with a heavy sigh. She is not in a position to go back home alone. So reluctantly he agreed.

"Alright"

Theo carried his wife away, which made Ella upset

"Hey you, stop. Where are you taking my friend. You pervert" Ella started to go after Theo and Nina, but Liam stopped her.

"Miss Vincent, your friend will be safe. Please tell me where you live. I can drop you home" Liam tried to speak with her.

But Ella became angry on behalf of Nina.

"Nina is with her Ex husband? Then how can she be safe?" she asked angrily. But she is drunk, so her words came out as a slur and she looked comical while defending Nina.

Jeremiah couldn't help but chuckle

at her antiques. Ella became even more angry She swung her handbag wildly to beat the shit out of him. Liam saw what she is doing and he ducked out of the way. But Jeremiah couldn't move as quickly. So her bag hit him square across his face, hitting his nose hard enough to make him yell out in pain.

"What the hell? What the hell are you carrying in that bag? It's hurting like hell" he complained with a wince. Ella giggled at his expense.

"Do you want to see what I hide in my bag?" she asked in a secretive whisper, as if she is sharing a secret. Liam sighed heavily, while Jeremiah agreed eagerly.

Ella pretended as if she will show the contents of her bag, but closed the bag zipper at the last second.

"Dream on, you pervert" she scolded Jeremiah.

Liam chuckled at how stunned Jeremiah looked.

"Dude, she is abusing me. Is she really drunk?" he complained again.

Liam shook his head.

"Let's take her home" he suggested.

Ella gave both of them hell by the time they dropped near her home. Both the men couldn't run away faster.

On the other hand, Nina is testing Theo's patience. He was never known was his patience. He is short tempered.

"Nina, get down. You will puke if you

jump on the bed after you drank so much" Theo tried to coax her softly. She was very well behaved in this one year of their marriage, atleast in his presence. He never saw this side of her. Despite her tantrums, she looked cute with her face flushed. Her laughter is ringing like music to his ears. She never laughed like this in front of him before. She looked free and happy.

Nina stopped for a second.

"Nope" she said before she started jumping again.

But then, she stopped suddenly with her eyes wide.

"Theo" she mumbled before she puked all over herself.

Theo looked up, praying for patience. Then he picked her up, without minding her puke and the pungent smell. He carried her inside the washroom and washed her along with her clothes. She sprayed water all over him, making him wet in the process. Once she was clean, he dried her and draped a towel around her and made her sit on the washbasin counter. He removed her small skirt which made her already long legs look longer. Without looking at her body, he removed her blouse. Then he dressed her up in one of his t shirts before discarding the towel. He carried her back to the room and gently laid her down on the bed.

"Now be a good girl and sleep. I will go change and come back, alright?" he asked her softly.

She mumbled something, which he didn't understand.

By the time he changed from his wet clothes, she was fast asleep.

He looked at her for a long time with strange emotions passing in his gaze.
