Not My Husband Anymore novel Chapter 34

Her daughter, not even two years old, clung tightly to her leg, crying out, “Mommy, don’t go!”

But she couldn’t bear to give up the chance to go to college, unwilling to be trapped in that small mountain village fo life.

She steeled herself and pried her daughter’s hands away, leaving without looking back.

The Lavigne family chased after her, and she didn’t dare look back for a moment, running for her life as her daugh ter’s heart–wrenching cries echoed behind her.

On the plane.

Audrey, who was sleeping, suddenly woke up with a start.

She instinctively touched her forehead.

The scar there was now completely gone, but the scene from that day often appeared in her dreams.

She remembered that day, the house was crowded with people, all shouting and cursing.

She clung tightly to her mother, terrified.

She couldn’t even remember what that woman looked like anymore, only that on that day, she left her behind and walked away without looking back.

She had just learned to walk then, and seeing her mother leave, seeing all those people around with hoes and stools,

she chased after her mother.

As a little child, she cried and ran, hoping her mother wouldn’t leave her alone.

But even when she tripped and hit her head, bleeding, her mother never turned back.

The scar on her forehead was left from that time.

It wasn’t until she went to college that she finally got rid of the scar completely.

All these years, what she hated most wasn’t the Lavigne family who abused and despised her, but the woman who gave birth to her and then abandoned her.

If one day she could see her again, she would ask her face to face what could make her so heartless as to abandon her

own child!

Damian, sitting nearby, noticed Audrey had woken up and asked with concern.

“What’s wrong?”

Audrey quickly composed herself and smiled faintly.

“I’m fine, I just had a nightmare!”

Damian glanced at the time.

“There’s still an hour before the plane lands. Try to get some more sleep.”

Audrey shook her head.

She looked at the man in front of her. Even in a simple black shirt, his face was enough to make anyone fall for him.

This man had loved her for so many years.

She couldn’t believe she had been foolish enough to leave him.

If not for the inferiority brought on by her childhood trauma, she would never have divorced Damian.

All the pain in her life was caused by that mother who never took any responsibility.

How could she not hate her!

Fortunately, she was back now.

She would never let anything make her miss out on this man again.

Moreover, she would use this man’s strength to become a better version of herself.

She would prove to everyone that even without a good background, she could achieve social mobility.

As for Damian’s wife…

Audrey didn’t care about her at all.

She was just a woman arranged for Damian by the Barrette family. Even with family background and looks, after five years of marriage, she still hadn’t won Damian’s heart.

Now that Audrey was back, that woman would have even less of a chance!

Seeing Audrey looking troubled, Damian assumed she was worried about her doctoral thesis.

“I’ve already contacted someone I know at Prof. Nixon’s side. I’ll arrange for you to meet first.

“Just focus on preparing your thesis. I’ll handle everything else.”

Audrey turned to look at Damian.

“Dami, thank you so much!”

Damian said, “There’s no need for that between us.”
