Burn those Who Burned Me Novel Ch 13
-Thomas POV:
I stared at Raymond with complete confusion. What the hell was going on? Where was she? Walking slowing, I began to speak.
“Are you telling me she hasn’t come home this week? At all?”
Raymond shook his head nervously; he had no idea what was going on.
“No sir. We assumed you all were still at the Crest Estate. Has something happened to Madam Rabena?”
That question hit me like a ton, a lot had happened to her. So where was she and why hadn’t she come home? Lowering my voice, I answered Raymond who was now staring at me with great concern.
“Don’t worry, I’ll handle it.”

I walked off and went straight to me study. I tried calling Rabena again, over and over it going to her voicemail. I was starting to wonder if her phone was still dead or if she had decided to block me. I decided to call Dani to see if maybe they returned to the Crest Estate.
“What do you mean she and Damon left? Where did they go?”
“That’s what I’m trying to figure out. So, she hasn’t come back there?”
“No not at all.”
Suddenly, there was pause in Danielle’s voice.
“I wonder if…well, maybe she’s just doing all of this to get your attention for not visiting her.”

I paused and thought for a moment, could Rabena really be THAT petty? It would make sense, and now she’s dragged letting out a sigh of relief, I spoke with Dani a bit more.

“You’re probably right. I don’t know why I even bothered worrying. Well, if she wants to play games, she’ll just have to make her way home on her own.
Danielle let out a light giggle.
“I just hate that she’s involved Damon, she knows how much he cares about her. It’s selfish that she’s turning him against the family.”
I could hear light sobs on the other end of the phone, poor Danielle was crying. would never forgive Rabena for this! First she ruined Dani’s birthday week being jealous and now she’s running away and dragging her clueless brother into it! When she came back home I would most certainly make her pay for this. I decided to buy Dani something to cheer her up when suddenly there was a knock on my study door.
“Yes, come in.”
Raymond stepped in with a nervous expression on his face.
“Sir, there is someone here to see you. He said he is a carrier.”
Carrier. Was I waiting on documents? Walking back into the foyer, I could see a short stubby man holding a manila colored envelop, Turning his head with a smile he began to speak.
“Are you Lockwood?”
“I am. But who are…”
“Excellent! Then these are for you.”
Before I could finish my sentence, the man handed me the folder with a large smile on his face. Confused I began to open the envelop.
“What is this?”
“You’ve been served; you’ll have five days to contest. Have a great day.”

Before I could say anything else, the man walked back out of the mansion. Now ripping open the folder I snatched out the papers.
DIVORCE PAPERS!
Rabena had filed for divorce! What the fuck! This didn’t make any sense! When had she done this! With my hands trembling I pulled my cell back out of my pocket and called her again.
“This is Rabena, please leave a message at th-”
In a heat of rage, I threw my phone at the wall. As the phone shattered, I rushed to my study to call my lawyer. If Rabena thought I would sign those papers, she had another thing coming! I immediately called Sylvester to update him on what was going on. Shocked, he began to speak.
“What the hell happened this past week? Why does she want a divorce?”
