Unbreakable

Chapter 9-Part 1

"Am I though?" He questioned, snatching the documents from me and placing it in the folder.

I ignored his comment. I wrapped the towel around my waist over the bathrobe because it felt uncomfortable being in this condition with him around.

"You're the one who just left without telling anyone anything! How could I have submitted these without your presence?!" He questioned back angrily.

"You ... humiliated me...and kicked me out of the house... What the hell was I supposed to do?" I said trying not to remember that horrid incident.

I saw his expressions soften up a bit and then it hardened again.

"And besides, I'm surprised that you didn't consult this with a lawyer." I snapped at him as I dragged my fingers through my damp, long hair. "Because you could have easily divorced me without me being there with you. You could have said that hey, I don't know where this woman is in this world so hence, I need a divorce."

"You shouldn't have left in the first place," Karan retorted.

"Unbelievable," I said in disbelief as I shook my head.

"It is unbelievable. Out of all the places, you were in Canada." He admitted.

I was baffled when he said that. Does this mean he knew where I was? Did Mansi ma tell him everything about me? Wait, she can't do that. She swore on my life that she'll never tell anyone about my whereabouts. Did he force it out of my brother? I don't think so because he would have told me. I really need to stop doubting everyone but I just can't help it. With what I've gone through, it's really hard to trust anyone.

I let out a sigh. "How do you know that?" I asked as I sat down on the bed. I really can't do this anymore.

"Well Mrs. Jaitly, when you were booking the suites, I was utilizing the computer downstairs when it received your booking information for two." He revealed.

Fuck my life, I said to myself while fidgeting with my hands.

"So in order to see if it's actually you, I emailed you a survey which asked for your date of birth, your favorite quote, and all of the useless things you like." He spoke.

"And when your answers seemed to match up, that's when I lured you to this hotel by giving one room for free." He added on as he smirked at me.

This is so ridiculous. I shook my head in disbelief. I really cannot believe this. "So you took all that trouble just to ensure that I come here?" I asked.

"It wasn't any trouble at all. So what I gave you an extra room for free? I'm not losing money." He answered.

"Of course," I whispered.

"Alright. Enough with all this interrogation. Get dressed and we'll leave for court now." He articulated.

"What?" I questioned.

"We're going to court right now to settle this divorce case," Karan said not reflecting any form of emotion. "I had the court date fixed upon your arrival" He added on.

I really can't believe this. All of this was too much to process. It hasn't been a day here since I've arrived and I'm already dealing with so much bullshit.

"Oh, by the way, you should open the gift basket. There's an invitation for you." Karan stated as he gave me the gift basket.

I didn't say a word to him. I honestly didn't care about the gift basket or whatever invitation he was talking about. But I still untied the knot, removed the wrap, and laid out the contents on the bed. Wow, so the basket had dry fruits, a gold chain, sweets, and a golden, blue box. Honestly, this seems as if it's a wedding invitation.
