Attracted By My Ex-wife

"Kristine, I know you are in there. And I know you can hear me. I am sorry, I really, really am. I didn't anticipate that I'd have to put you through this." Andrew heaved a heavy sigh, and pleaded, "We both know how cruel the entertainment circles are; it spares no one. No, I cannot afford to have my name associated with any scandal. For the future of my career, I have no choice but to do this."

He was met with absolute silence. Luke and Alan sat on the couch, enjoying he scene playing out before them. Faint smiles were apparent on their faces.

The room was pitch black with darkness. Cherry looked blankly, straight ahead of her.

Since her rise to fame, she had done many things just like this to others. There wasn't anything wrong with others now treating her in the same way.

If she were Andrew, she would do exactly what he was choosing to do, too - perhaps, she would do it in a way much worse, as well.

Further, in context of her life, what Andrew had done to her was absolutely zilch compared to that which Alan and Luke had caused her to endure.

"Kristine, I know that you think I am despicable and a shameless human being. But I really have no other choice in these circumstances. Please can you accept my decisions?" Andrew persisted.

Out of nowhere, the door was pulled open. Andrew saw Cherry, whose eyes were puffy and red. He was stunned for a moment. He felt very sorry for her, seeing her in this state.

Before he had discovered her true identity, the twosome had been together for a long, long time. She had so much influence in the entertainment circles he had wished to break into, not to mention that she was also a very sweet person. How could he not have taken to such a woman?

If she had not committed the crime of killing someone in the past and if Alan was out of the picture, Andrew would have genuinely wanted to win over her affection.

With a disheartened look on his face, he guiltily averted his gaze, lowering his head.

"What if I don't agree?" Cherry's voice was hoarse. It was clear she had cried a lot, and for a long while.

Andrew frowned, considering her words. But he remained quiet, with eyes looking to the ground.

"Ha-ha..." Cherry jeered at him, and continued, "Whether I agree with you or not, you're going to go ahead with your plans anyway. So why do you even pretend to be so apologetic?"

Without further ado, she slammed the door angrily in his face.

After a long while, Andrew lifted his head and looked at the door. He looked completely drained.

He felt an unexpected pat on the shoulder, out of nowhere. He turned around to see that it was none other than Alan. "Andrew," he said. "You are an intelligent man and you have made the right choice. This is in your best interest. Run while you can, get out of here now." Alan had a faint smile on his face.

This was the last trace of humaneness which Alan had in himself.

Andrew nodded and exited Cherry's home with a heavy heart. He made the important phone call. Soon, the news began to circulate on the internet.
