The Mistake

Chapter Thirty Seven

***Sorry it's unedited.***

"Yeah okay. Make sure to keep an eye on her and let me know if she goes anywhere else. Bye." Jonah hangs up the phone. Leaning back in his chair he rubs at his temple.

It has been three days now since Mindy has left the house. He didn't stop her knowing that she needs some time to calm down and think everything over, but that didn't mean that he did not know where she was, at all hours.

Right when she walked out the doors, he had one of his best man keep a close eye on her. She had checked into a cheap hotel across town and has been there since. He told himself he will patiently wait until she was ready to come home and then they will talk and he will explain everything and beg for forgiveness although he wanted nothing more than to leave work, race across town, and take her back home to where she belongs.

Mindy stares at herself in the mirror hanging from the bathroom door in the tiny hotel room that she booked. He eyes were red and swollen and her face was pale as snow. She has been crying for three days straight and her appetite has been out the door.

"Sorry baby...sorry." She cried her right palm rubs at her stomach in circles.

There was no way in hell was she going to tell Jonah that she was pregnant now. She hates him. She feels disgusted by him. Betrayed. He had broken her heart and hurt her numerous time. She wasn't going to let that happen again to her or her baby.

She had three days to think everything through and every thought brought her back to the same solution. She is going to leave him. She wanted a divorce.

-

Mindy walks through the doors of the mansion in the early evening. She wanted to pack some things and leave again before Jonah returns from work not being aware that Jonah's worker had already contacted him about her return home.

Agatha who just finish cleaning the foyer spotted her right away.

"Madam!" she almost choked.

"Please Agatha. Don't cause a scene. I'm not ready to talk or face anyone yet." She begged the woman hoping that she will not alert anyone else that she was back.

Agatha bowed her head to Mindy before strolling over giving her a much needed hug.

"Your parents just left this morning. They have been here since you left the house. I believe they will be returning tonight since they wanted to go home and pack some stuff." She informs Mindy.

"Thank you Agatha." Mindy gently pulls herself away from her. "Good, more reasons to hurry and leave,"  she thought.

Returning to their room, she quickly packs a small bag of only necessities and a couple pair of clothing to last her a few days before she can buy more. When she was finish she sat the bag on the bed when her eyes caught glimpse of her ring. She eyes the sparkling diamond on her ring finger. Slowly she removes the ring from her finger. Holding the ring in her small fist, she brings it to her chest, remembering all the love she holds for this man, someone who didn't return the feelings but only revenge, lies, and deceit.

Her tears resume again as she walks over to the desk in the room setting it right in the middle. She then looks to the picture of Jonah smiling genuinely. God she knew she was going to miss him even though he had hurt her so much. Touching her fingers to his picture, she finally decided it was time to leave for good.

-

Jonah impatiently rush out of the car when him and Dexter pulled up to the house later that evening. When his man had contacted him earlier that Mindy had returned home, he wanted to leave work immediately and go home but he thought against it. He didn't want to startled her so soon. So instead, he thanked his worker for the hard work and told him to have the rest of the day off.
