The Man I Married

Chapter 3

After the argument with my father, I found myself driving toward the company.

I decided to finish everything today and hopefully tomorrow I can live a new life.

"Manager Cullen. What can I do to you? Wait, what happen to your face Sir?" Gunar secretary asked.

"I want to talk to the CEO. Is he inside?" I asked and ignored her question.

"Yes, but I'm sorry Sir, you are forbidden to enter his office. B-but I can ask him if important matter..."

"No need." I interrupt and walk toward Gunar office.

"Wait Sir..." the secretary tried to stop me.

I pushed the door hard and walk inside.

"What the..." Gunar said startled. He's with president Hiro, his best friend. "What are you doing here?" he asked.

"I want to talk to you."

"Chai, what happened to your face?" president Hiro asked. But I just ignore him too.

"And who say I want to talk to you?" Gunar asked rudely.

"I want my freedom!" I bursted.

"What?!"

"I want my freedom. Let's seperate ways!"

"Don't make me laugh, Chairette. You're not paid yet to your father's debt."

I open my bag and bring out all the documents there and throw them in front of him.

"That's all the properties I inherited from my late mother. If it's not enough, here, my trust funds in the bank, my mom secretly left this to me. You can take my car too. I give it all to you. If still have a balance, let me know. I'll gonna work hard to pay you until the last cent. Just give me back my life Mr Hayes!" I shouted in anger.

"How can you just shouted me like that? I'm your boss."

"Not anymore, 'cause starting today I'm no longer your employee. I'm resigning now. Here's my resignation letter its effectively today. And by the way..." I bring out the marriage contract from the envelop. "...this is the contract we signed a year ago." I wave the document in front of him and tear it into pieces. "That will be the end of our agreement Mr Gunar Hayes. I hope we don't bump each other again in the future." I said and walk out from the room.

I leave the building with tears showering my face, added the blood stain from the wound caused by the hit of my father.

I dialled my phone.

"Hello, Dean. Can you pick me up?" I said stammered.

"Hey, Are you Okey? Are you you crying? Where are you?" Dean asked worried.

"In front of the company..."

"Wait me there... Im coming."

"O-Okey..."

After a while, Dean came.

"What happened? Who hit your face? Is that bastard hit you?"

"No, it's dad."

"They are just the same. Come on, let's go home."

"Hmm.." he help me to hop in to his car.

"Are you okey? Do you want to go on hospital?" he asked before he start the car.

"No, I'm fine. Just bruise."

"Tell me, what happened?"

"I just got my freedom, Dean."

"What do you mean?" he asked confused.

"I can live my life alone now."

"Chai..."

"I risked everything I have.."

"Its okey, I help you to stand again Chai..."

I nod. "Thank you for staying with me."

"No problem. You did the same thing to me too."
