Chapter 1 Sign the divorce papers
Jessica paced about in the living room, waiting for her husband, Dylan Robinson, to return home from work.
She was a beautiful, plump woman, and she had been married to Dylan for five years.
She had been submissive and loving, taking care of their home and two kids. Yet, all of a sudden, Dylan changed.
Jessica had a son and a daughter with Dylan. Her son, Caleb, was a five-year-old boy, while her daughter, Nina, was a two-year-old girl, and they were fast asleep in their separate bedrooms.
For two nights, after Dylan left for work on Monday morning, Jessica hadn't seen her husband return home. She had noticed that his mood had changed before he left the house that morning.
Jessica stood in the living room and called Dylan to find out where he was, but the network provider told her, "Sorry, the mobile number that you're trying to call is unavailable at the moment. Please try again later."
"Oh! Where could Dylan be?" Jessica exclaimed, frustrated that she had called Dylan's phone several times and really needed to see her husband.
She had told their two kids that their father went to work on Monday morning. Yet, Dylan didn't return home at all, and she couldn't continue to keep up with her lies.
Jessica heard the sound of a car driving into their compound and parked. She went outside, peeped, and saw that Dylan had finally returned home.
She sighed and went back inside to wait for him.
Soon, Dylan stepped out of his car and walked into the house. He was a 30-year-old black man who owned DY Mobile Company.
He entered the living room and saw his wife, Jessica Albert, standing there in her long white nightgown. She greeted him, "Welcome home, sweetheart."
"Hmm," Dylan frowned.
He looked at the divorce papers in his hands that his long-time lover, Rosie Andrew, had given to him to bring home to Jessica and to divorce her immediately.
Dylan walked up to meet Jessica without responding to her greeting. He stopped in front of her, shook the divorce papers into her hands, and told her, "I cannot continue to pretend with you anymore, Jessica. Read through this divorce paper, sign it, and pack your things tomorrow to return to your father's house. You can take our kids with you if you want, or you can leave them behind and go alone, but make sure you pack your things tomorrow and leave! I will give you some funds and shares of my company revenue and pay you off later, but this marriage is over between us, so leave."
"What!" Jessica was taken aback by her husband's statement. She looked at the divorce papers in her hands.
'Is this a dream?' Jessica wondered as she stared up at Dylan, who was walking away toward the living room stairs.
Instead of explaining to her where he had been for three days and two nights, he just shoved divorce papers into her hands and ordered her to sign them.
Jessica snapped out of her trance and quickly called Dylan back. She asked him, "Wait, Dylan, what's the meaning of this? You just got home, and instead of explaining to me where you went, you're talking about divorce? What has come over you, Dylan? What did I do wrong?"
Jessica's eyes filled with tears, and Dylan paused and turned back to face her. He asked her, "Have you taken a good look at yourself lately in the mirror, Jessica?"
Jessica was puzzled by her husband's question and stared at herself from head to toe to understand what he meant.
"Are you the same woman that I married five years ago? Take a good look at yourself, Jessica. You have turned fat overnight, and I cannot continue with you anymore! I cannot carry you and make love to you the way I want, as you have outgrown me, and that's just the truth! This marriage is not working anymore. So sign the divorce papers and leave!" Dylan spat in a cold voice and turned to walk away toward the living room stairs.
Jessica replied, "No, Dylan! We cannot divorce. I love you, and I'm already working on myself."
Jessica had been a banker before she met Dylan, but after giving birth to Nina, she started gaining weight at home. Dylan complained that she had become lazy and insisted that she quit her job to take care of their two kids, stating that she couldn't leave all the work to the maid.
Dylan sent the poor maid away, and Jessica thought that the maid had done something wrong, but the maid was innocent.
Dylan insisted that Jessica must cook for him and spend time with their kids, and Jessica happily did all that, hoping it would make their marriage work and please Dylan. Yet, now Dylan was filing for divorce.
Jessica cried, "No, Dylan! I cannot divorce you. After five years of our marriage, no! This cannot be happening to us."
Dylan paused and replied, "Just sign the divorce papers and leave, Jessica! I'm not the first man to divorce his wife, and I won't be the last."
Jessica tearfully asked, "What did I do wrong to you, Dylan? Why do you want to destroy our marriage?"
Dylan turned and replied, "You've become unattractive, Jessica. You're not the same woman I married, so leave!"
"What!" Jessica was shocked by Dylan's statement and looked at him in disbelief. She could smell alcohol on him and noticed the red lipstick on his lips.
Jessica didn't want to believe that Dylan was cheating on her. She asked him, "What did you just say, Dylan? That I'm ugly now? Really?"
"Yes, Jessica! Or am I lying to you? Was this how I married you before? Agreed, you're a billionaire's daughter, and your father helped me establish myself, so what? I cannot continue to pretend anymore. You've become fat and are not the kind of wife I want to come home to. So leave!" Dylan spat in a cold tone, breaking Jessica's heart.
Tears streamed down her face, wetting the divorce papers in her hands.
She sobbed, "No, Dylan. I cannot accept this divorce. I think you're getting it all wrong. It's not my fault that I gained weight. Some women gain weight after giving birth, and it's not a disease."
Dylan climbed the living room stairs and paused to stare back at Jessica. He saw that she looked innocent in her long white nightgown and that she hadn't really been overweight when they first married.
He replied, "I cannot continue to pretend anymore, Jessica. Take your time to read through the divorce papers and sign them. I acknowledge all your efforts in making our marriage work and your family's support in the past and present, but this marriage isn't working anymore. I cannot continue to sleep outside my matrimonial home or pay for a hotel room when I have a luxurious duplex mansion here. So sign the divorce papers and leave."
Dylan climbed the stairs and went back upstairs to the master bedroom he shared with Jessica, leaving her standing alone in the living room, staring at the divorce papers in her hands.
Jessica looked back at the living room wall clock and saw that it was already after 11 PM. Yet Dylan had just returned home from work, and she knew his company usually closed by 5 PM.
Jessica screamed, "No, Dylan! This cannot be happening to us. We can never divorce! Never!"
Tears rolled down her cheeks, heavily soaking the divorce papers. She said, "You cannot divorce me now, Dylan! I'm not like this before, and I cannot lose weight overnight just to please you."
Jessica fell backward onto one of the seven black couches in their living room and remembered the first day she met Dylan.
Dylan was a handsome black man, trustworthy, friendly, and the kind of man that every woman would pray to have.
In the early stages of their relationship, Dylan was sweet and romantic. He never grew tired in bed with her, and she found it hard to resist his charm.
If anyone had told her then that Dylan would one day break up with her or divorce her, Jessica would have cursed them as a hater, as she had dated Dylan for two years before they finally got married.
But now Dylan wanted to end their five-year marriage after all she had done for him.
"No, Dylan! I cannot accept this. You are already cheating on me. Come back here, Dylan! You need to explain what happened to the man I fell in love with and married. You cannot divorce me now. No! After five years of marriage, never! I cannot accept this!"
"How can you just return home today after spending two days away from our home and tell me I'm fat and ugly now? No, Dylan! I cannot accept this divorce!" Jessica stood up from the couch and rushed back upstairs to confront her husband.
