Trapped with My Billionaire Ex-Husband (Blair and Sebastian) novel Chapter 76

Chapter 76
BLAIRE
“You’ve got to be kidding
and watched as police carsured to myself as I looked outside the window
and watched as police cars pulled over in front of the gate. “She really didn’t know when to stop.”
Catherine followed through with her threat. Well, I’m not actually surprised. Knowing her, she’ll do anything in her power to get what she wants. My father spoiled her too
much.
I turned to the bed where Blaze was sleeping. I’m just relieved that Blaze didn’t have to witness this commotion.
I continue watching from the window, assessing whether the staff can handle the situation. I’m exhausted, and I don’t want to see Catherine again. I had enough of her for the night.
This is among those rare moments that I wish Sebastian was here so he’d be the one to handle his raging wife. They waited a few minutes outside the gate before the guard let them in. It seems like they have no choice but to allow them in after one of the policemen handed the guard a paper.
I let out a loud sigh before I decided to go out and face them. As I walked down the stairs, I could already see the smug look on Catherine’s face while she was followed by a few uniformed men.
“I told you, this isn’t over,” she said, crossing her arms in front of her chest and arching her brow.
I just roll my eyes at her before shifting my attention towards the men standing behind her. “Good evening, gentlemen. What can I do for you?” I greeted.
They were all surprised as they looked at each other with confusion written all over their faces. “Good evening, Miss…”
“Banks. She’s Miss Banks.” Catherine finished their sentence for them, strengthening her claim as the woman of this house.
“How can I help you, officer?” I asked, ignoring Catherine’s bitter remark.
“Good evening, madam. We’re here to serve you this warrant,” he said as he handed me
a paper.
“May I know what the charges are?” I asked casually, despite having a hint of what is this all about. Though I accepted the paper that he gave, I didn’t bother opening it since I

already had an idea what it was for.
“Trespas sing and physical assault, madam,” he answered.

That’s the only time that I decided to open the letter. Upon checking, this seems legit. Though the timeline and how fast she was able to get a warrant seem suspicious, She probably used her connection to have this release, considering the time and her lack of evidence.
This time, I don’t think I would be able to use my bluff. I don’t have any proof that this house still belongs in my name.
“What are you waiting for, officer? Drag this woman out of this house!” Catherine ordered.
Two of the policemen grabbed my arms on both sides as they started to pull me out of the house. My

thoughts about Catherine discovering the truth about my son

I don’t care if I go to jail. I just need to make sure that my son is okay. I was about to run upstairs to get Blaze when someone caught our attention.
“What’s going on here? Why are there policemen in my house?” Sebastian said, frowning as he entered the house. “What are you doing here?” he added upon seeing Catherine.
“Why shouldn’t I? I’m your wife. I have every right to be here!” she replied.
Sebastian was left speechless as I watched his jaw tighten. However we want to alter the truth, she’s right. He decided to ignore Catherine and turned to one of the officers in charge.
“What’s happening here, officer?” he asked.
“Mrs. Foster filed charges against Miss Banks. She’s accusing her of trespas sing and physical assault,” the office answered.
He then turned towards the officer who was holding me. “Let her go, or I’ll make you the one facing charges,” he threatened. He then turned to the officer in charge once again. “I’d like to apologize for the disturbance Catherine made, officer. But it seems like there’s a misunderstanding going on here,” he said. “Clifford,” he called out his name. That’s when I noticed him standing behind his back.
Clifford nodded and excused himself. We all stayed silent as we waited for Clifford to come back.

“Here you go, sir,” he said as he handed Sebastian a folder.

“Officer, this house, well, in fact, belongs to Miss Banks. You can see it for yourself,” he said as he handed them the envelope. “So, I’m afraid your trespas sing charge was already out of the picture. As for the assault, I believe using a reasonable amount of force to remove a trespasser from your home isn’t illegal. Not unless you and your fellow officers have different opinions,” he said with his eyes so sharp that they could cut through anything.
The lead officer opened the envelope and started reading what was inside. I quickly saw how his face changed upon reading what was on the paper. He cleared his throat and put
the paper in the envelope before putting up a fake smile.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Foster. We didn’t mean to cause any harm. We are just doing our job. based on the complaint,” he explained.
“Well, you’re clearly not doing your job properly,” Sebastian answered.
The officers lowered their heads in embarrassment. “Again, we apologize for the inconvenience, Mr. Foster. We’ll go ahead,” the lead officer said.
“What? It can’t be! You have to arrest her!” Catherine objected. “He’s clearly making it up. I’m pretty sure that document was forged,” she insisted.
“You are free to have it authenticated, Catherine. But before then, I will ask you to leave,” Sebastian said. “Officer, will you please escort this lady as you leave?”
“Yes, sir,” he answered. “Ma’am, let’s go.” He then held Catherine as he tried to make her leave.
“No! I’m not going anywhere! I am your wife, Sebastian! I have every right to be here!” she insisted.
Sebastian stayed silent as he watched Catherine being dragged out of the house by the police officers that she brought with her.
“Sebastian! You can’t do this to me! Sebastian!” Catherine continued to scream loud enough to awaken everyone in the house. She’s being so hysterical that the police officers had no choice but to carry her.
Sebastian holds my arm gently. “Come on, let’s get inside,” he said.
I followed him, but my eyes remained with Catherine. I’m not sure why, but my heart goes with her even in this kind of situation. I can’t blame her entirely for her actions. She’s right. She’s Sebastian’s wife, and she has every right to be on Sebastian’s property. She has more rights than me. I shouldn’t be here.

I don’t know what’s going on with her and Sebastian. But whatever it is, I shouldn’t be part of any of it.
“I’m sorry about that. I wasn’t expecting her to show up.

I sna tched my arm from him and confronted him. “What were you expecting, Sebastian? You brought your mistress into your house. How do you expect your wife to react?”
He was taken aback. He probably wasn’t expecting my outburst as well. “I will fix this,” he answered.
“How? How can you fix this chaotic situation?” I snorted. “Are you going to imprison us on an island?” I asked sarcastically.
“I promise you, Catherine won’t be able to disturb you again,” he said, ignoring my sarcastic remark.
“You’re completely missing the point, Sebastian! Catherine has every right to be mad right now. I know it because that’s how I felt when you brought her to our house and chose to cheat on me with her! Don’t you understand?”Keeping us here won’t fix anything!”
“Then, what do you want me to do?” he yelled in frustration. I can see the pain in his eyes when I remind him of what he did. He clearly regretted what he did, but it won’t change the facts about what happened in the past.
“We can’t continue living in the past, Sebastian. We can’t pretend that by trapping us here, everything will miraculously fall back into place, just like before. We’re ruined. Our family was ruined. Imprisoning us here won’t make me change my mind. I’ve already accepted the fact that our relationship is over. What happened on the island was my last gift to myself. I may have loved you still, but that was not enough to make me stay. I’m not living only for myself now. I have Blaze, and I need to protect him. I can’t afford to have Catherine always at my throat, threatening the peace I was dreaming of for my son.”
He let out a loud sigh. My chest tightened when I saw the tears running down his cheeks. He was sobbing. “What do you want me to do, Blaire?” His voice cracked as his tears continued flowing from his eyes.
I wanted to hold him. However, I know that it wouldn’t change anything. It will only give us false hope that everything will be okay. We will never be a complete family. We already lost that chance a long time ago. So many hurtful words had been said, and many unforgivable sins had been done. We can never take that back.
“Set us free, Sebastian. That’s what I want you to do. We will never stop hurting each other unless we set each other free. Let us go,” I pleaded.

It’s breaking me inside, but I know that it’s the only way for us to be happy. I love him, yes. I still love him despite everything that happened. However, that love wasn’t enough to erase all the pain that he caused me. I may be able to forgive him, but I don’t think I’d be able to move forward with him around.
“I want to be a part of my son’s life, Blaire. I want to give him the life that he deserves.”
“And what life would that be? A peaceful life away from this chaos is the life that he deserves. Will you be able to give him that? As long as Catherine is in the picture, Blaze’s will be in constant agony. I’m sure as hell that Catherine wouldn’t stop after the stunt she pulled tonight.”
“I can assure you.”
“You can’t assure anything, Sebastian!” I cut him off. “Catherine will not stop as long as we’re here. Now that she knows I’m back, she will do anything to ruin me. What if she finds out the truth about Blaze? Who knows what she’s capable of doing to me and my son? This isn’t about us anymore. Think about Blaze!”
“He’s the one that I’m thinking about; that’s why I’m trying my best to fix everything. I wanted a life with my son and with you. Catherine and I were over even before you came back. I have been asking for a divorce for years. I’m trying, Blaire. I’m really trying,” he replied.
I took a loud breath. “There’s nothing to fix, Sebastian. Our relationship was so damaged that it’s already impossible to fix.”
“No, no, no. Please don’t say that. I know you still love me. And so am I. I’m willing to wait until you find it in your heart to forgive me. I don’t care how long it takes. I will stay here beside you and try to amend everything.”
“But that’s the thing, Sebastian. I already forgave you. If that’s what you were asking for from me, then I’m telling you, I forgave you. However, that doesn’t mean that we can pick up where we left off. That part of our lives ended a long time ago. There’s nothing left to fix.”
I was stunned when he suddenly fell on his knees, begging and crying. “Please don’t say that.” His voice cracked as he held my hand tightly while kneeling in front of me.
“I’m sorry, Sebastian. Please, let us go. I’m begging you.” I forcefully removed his hand, holding mine. I wanted to leave as fast as I could. If I stayed for another minute, I might be back with my words. It pains me to watch him lower himself and beg me to give him another chance. But I’ve already given him enough chances, and he blew them.
I walked away, leaving him kneeling on the floor. I tried my best not to look back because I knew for myself that I might be running back to him if I did. I have to do this. This is for the best. /
