Chapter 894 Divorce Her

Chapter 894 Divorce Her

As Mia and Diana returned to the house, Diana's mind was still reeling from the revelations of the morning.

After Mia returned from the restroom earlier, Mia had told her how she met Henry and how Henry had ruined her family's business just so they would be indebted to him and he could marry her.

Diana had always known Henry was a monster, but she had never imagined the depth of his cruelty.

She glanced at Mia, who was staring out the window, her expression distant and she sighed inwardly wishing there was a way she could really help Mia, since she couldn't even begin to imagine how Mia was feeling under the same roof as Henry.

Without thinking she reached for Mia's hand and squeezed it, "Stay strong. I will do all I can to help you," Diana said softly as they pulled up to the house.

Mia turned to her. "Thank you."

She had been thinking about her life and wondering what her life would have been like if she had never crossed path with Henry.

She had once been a vibrant, hopeful young woman with dreams and aspirations. But Henry had shattered those dreams, leaving her a shell of her former self. And even though she had tried to break free, she had spent the past three years in hiding and not living her life to the fullest because she was still haunted by the ghosts of Henry's wickedness.

They exited the car and headed inside, each lost in their own thoughts. As they entered the house, Henry was waiting for them in the foyer, his eyes lighting up when he saw Diana.

"How was the shopping trip, darling?" he asked, pulling her into a hug.

"It was fine," Diana replied, flashing him an effortless smile, and Mia couldn't help but inwardly commend Diana's acting skills.

"You must be exhausted. Come in, and I will massage your feet," Henry said and Diana smiled at him before turning to Mia.

"Vanessa, you can ask Mika to get the bags out of the car..."

"She can do that herself. I'm sure you must have learned how to carry stuff yourself these last three years," Henry said with disdain and Mia returned to the car to get the bags while Henry led Diana inside.

"Did you find something suitable for the gala?" Henry asked as they walked and Diana nodded.

"Yes. We found the perfect wears. How have you been, my king?" Diana asked as they walked into the living room and sat down.

"I've been missing you. I returned earlier than planned so I could spend some more time with you," Henry said, ignoring Mia as she returned with Diana's bag.

"You can take my bag to my room," Diana ordered.

"I don't want her inside our bedroom. Give me the bags. I will take them up myself," Henry said dismissively, and after taking the bag from Mia he turned his attention back to Diana. "I have a surprise for you, my love. Come with me."

"Really? What's that?" Diana asked excitedly as she rose.

"You will see," Henry said, and Mia watched as Henry led Diana away.

She couldn't help but feel amused by this aspect of Henry. She turned when she noticed a movement and saw Jeff standing at the edge of the dining watching her.

"Do you need something, ma'am?" Jeff asked politely as she approached him.

"Where is Margaret and Mika?" She asked and Jeff looked behind him.

"They both went grocery shopping," he said and Mia raised a brow.

"I'd really love that. I should leave before Henry suspects anything," Mia said and Jeff nodded as he picked up the bowl of fruit salad and handed it to her.

"Whenever you want us to talk, you can request for a bowl of fruit salad," Jeff said and Mia nodded before walking away.

In Henry's bedroom, Diana lay on the bed with her legs on Henry's thighs as he massaged her feet.

"So? What is the surprise?" She asked, and Henry gently put down her legs and rose from the bed. He went to the drawer on his side of the bed and took out an envelope.

"What is this?" Diana asked as he handed it to her.

"Open it," he said with a smile and she did.

"A car and a house?" She asked in confusion.

"Yes. I figured that now that you're pregnant, you might not be comfortable living here. Especially now that Vanessa is here...."

"No! I'm not leaving," Diana said flatly before he could finish, and he looked at her, shocked by her reaction.

"Are you trying to subtly let go of me now that your wife is back? Is this your way of saying you no longer need me?" Diana asked, and Henry shook his head.

"Of course, not! I will visit you often and spend all my time with you..."

"Divorce her," Diana said, and Henry raised a brow.

"What?"

"You asked me what I wanted the other night, right? That is what I want. I want to be your wife. Divorce her and make me your wife," she said, and a flicker of annoyance crossed his eyes.

"You know I can't do that," Henry said and Diana frowned.

"Can't or won't? You are secretly in love with her, are you not?" She asked in an accusatory tone.

"You know very well that it is your that I love..."

"Then prove it! This is the time to prove to me that you love me! I spent the last two years living and serving you after she abandoned you, yet you won't leave her and marry me. I thought you always said you reward loyalty? What right does she have to be Mrs Rosewood? Do you have any idea how hard it is to walk beside her while other treats her with respect as your wife and I'm looked down on? Do you think your family would want you to remain married to her when they find out the kind of woman she is?" Diana asked with displeasure.

"Will you really be okay with having your precious child out of wedlock? The Rosewood bastard? What will people say? Will you keep our child hidden? Maybe all of this is a mistake. Don't worry yourself. I will get an abortion..."

"Stop!" Henry ordered but Diana got off the bed and continued.

"Why should I? Maybe I should just leave. I can't keep so this. I understand you don't want a broken home, but I also can't stand you breaking my heart! So, why don't you let me leave if you can't let your wife go?" she asked, and Henry took a deep breath as he walked over to her and placed both hands on her shoulders.

"You're not going anywhere, Diana. I can't let you go. I will see what I can do about Vanessa," Henry promised as he brushed away a tear drop from her cheek.

"Don't over exert yourself and the baby. I will come up with a solution," he promised.

"The only solution is for you to divorce her, that way we can live together. Will you divorce her?" Diana asked hopefully.

"Sure. If that's what you want. I will begin the process tomorrow," he promised once again as he kissed her forehead.

"Thank you my king," Diana said as she leaned into him and Henry sighed deeply.

Although he didn't want to get rid of Vanessa anytime soon, but perhaps Diana was right. He didn't have to keep her so close as his wife to punish her. He could make her disappear— have her locked away in an asylum for the rest of her life, and live the rest of his life with Diana as his wife, and their kids.
