Story

The story

For three years, Alice Grey has been the sensible wife, tolerating her husband Rupert's endless patience for his assistant Chelsea, who lost her parents young and sees him as a big brother. When Rupert eats ten pineapples in three days, Alice finally presents the divorce papers, knowing the person who sent those pineapples is about to arrive at their door.

Rupert dismisses her demand as a tantrum, certain a designer bag or a charity gala will bring her back. Chelsea, slipping into the house in matching slippers, straightens his tie and warns Alice that what isn't hers is useless to hold onto. Alice leaves the unsigned papers behind and moves back to her parents' house, where she cannot yet tell them the truth.

Rupert's calls grow angrier, but Alice no longer flinches. This time she wants nothing, and she is not coming back.

Opening excerpt

Rupert paused, his hand still reaching for a napkin to wipe his fingers. “Darling, what’s this about now?”

“You’ve eaten ten pineapples in three days,” I stated.

Rupert chuckled, reaching out to stroke my hair as he always did. “These past few days, the pineapples haven’t been that good, so I didn’t save you any. How about this, to make amends with my princess, I’ll take you shopping for a designer bag tomorrow? What do you say?”

I lowered my eyes, a bitter taste in my mouth. In three years of marriage, he had never once lost his temper with me.
