Bye, My Ex-husband

Chapter 40: What Brings You Here 

Rayan sent out many people in search of Gracie.But, it was as if she had vanished from the face of the world.

He even went back to the old house himself to check but still could not still locate her.On top of that, even Gracie's parents were also missing and nobody could state a reason for that.

Nothing made sense anymore.

If Gracie was really missing, how come she sent Rayan the message of breaking up with him? At this point he had no one else but to suspect Janessa.

But he did not let his emotions get the better of him and controlled himself from confronting Janessa right at that moment. When he was at home, while stressing he drank a lot and in that state drove to Janessa’s place.

Even in that absolutely drunk state Rayan managed to accurately locate the place where she hid her extra keys.

He swiftly took it and opened the door to the apartment.After returning home from a long day of work, Janessa was enjoying a hot bath.

Suddenly she heard the noise of her front-door creaking open.She quickly pulled her bathrobe and covered herself.She grabbed something in order to protect herself and carefully walked out of the bathroom.

The silhouette of a tall figure was visible for a moment and then it collapsed on the sofa.

"What the hell are you doing here, Rayan? That also, at this hour of the night?"

She pulled her bathrobe a little tighter around her body and inspected the man lying on the sofa.Gracie was nowhere to be found.

Then what was Rayan doing in her apartment? The smell of the alcohol from his body stung the air around.

Janessa knew that she could not allow him to do anything crazy in this drunk state.So she quietly went to the kitchen and made him a bowl of soup to sober him up.She silently placed it in front of Rayan.

"Why are you here in the middle of the night?" Rayan looked hard to see her.

The look on his face was dull.

"What did you say to Gracie? Tell me right now! Why was she trying to defend you?"

When Rayan loved Gracie with all his heart, she left him because of his mother.Now after that ordeal when they were finally together Janessa messed everything up.

"I remember you and Gracie came together that day to the old house.When your dad and I came out of the study, you had already left."
