How To Get A Divorce From A Billionaire ?

Episode 57

Although we were in early September, the weather was still hellishly hot,
Or at least this was what I tried to think about when we finally left the dinning hall and went to the guests hall, the weather.

While absently observing the sun rays brightly reflecting on the tree leafs and on the surface of the pool out in the garden I inevitably recalled the old summers I spent in my hometown, where the temperature was above 40°c for most of summer and we still had to manage staying alive through them without air conditioner because Nana thought it was a waste of money and unhealthy, where we literally boiled under our clothes when we dared walk in the streets midday, although these memories were obviously filled with heat I still felt this unexplainable coldness when recalling them, and this deep void inside me I failed to fill.

_"Are you alright Noursine?" Eliyas whispered in my ear while sitting beside me.

When I looked at him, his eyes were full of concern, I'm sure he didn't expect Nadir to announce such news about my mother to me, he probably was even regretting inviting him to the villa in the first place.

I didn't want him to unnecessarily feel worried about me, so I smiled then replied:

_"I'm perfectly fine."

Eliyas didn't look very convinced after hearing my words though, which is quite reasonable given the fact that I, the not so emotional creature, was so heartbroken after my last meeting with my mother to the point of having eating and sleeping problems, the thing is that I wasn't even concerned about my deteriorating state at the time, So it was actually only him who felt pained and desperate seeing his wife withering in front of his eyes.
While Eliyas was busy inspecting my face, our guest, namely Nadir, suddenly asked Ines:

_"Miss Filladi, I heard you recently graduated from college, are you planning to join the filladi next?"

I felt quite surprised with his unexpected curiosity about Ines's plans in life, but I ended up attributing this weird behavior to the nature of his work, he's a lawyer after all, he must have gotten used to randomly asking people about their private lives so it was only natural for him to inquire about the person he knew the least in that room, my sister in law Ines.

_" I'm not planning to join Filladi." She replied carelessly, then continued:

_"I was delayed for 2 years in college, I hardly made it at the finance department, business is clearly not my thing."

You see, Ines was never your typical straight A student, or what we call in Algeria: "Qaria", which by the way literally means : "someone who can read" as if the rest of the students who rank worst are a bunch of illiterates, I always found it quite offensive, anyways, the poor Ines did her best in school but her scores never reflected her effort.

She hardly made it through high school, then when she thought she could finally breathe and enjoy her youth she was then forced to study finance which only made things even worst for her.

Now that her long nightmare is finally over, why would she even think of torturing her self for the rest of her life by working at filladi??

_"then what will you do instead?" He persistently asked.

She calmly looked at him, then replied:

_" I've been modeling occasionally in college, Did some photography as well, probably I'll see if I can start from these since I finally fulfilled my parents wish of getting a finance diplomat."

_"I see, then it will indeed be more convenient for you to live in France, you'll probably have better opportunities there." Nadir commented to our total surprise.
