"R-R- Rhett" Scarlett stammered in surprise as she turned around and faced her husband.

"Oh Rhett you're back" she cried as she ran into his arms. Rhett had to control himself not to grab her and kiss her as passionately as he could. He had to keep reminding himself what he was there for: to give Scarlett divorce papers no matter what he had just overheard.

"Rhett I love you not Ashley, I realize that now and what a fool I've been. Not to mention how much I missed you!" Scarlett felt so happy and excited now that he was back she would make him see how much she loved him and he would never leave her again.

"Mrs. Butler, I'm here for only two reasons they are Melly's funeral and to serve you with divorce papers." Rhett kept his voice as emotionless as possible and the second Scarlett heard it she backed away from him. She looked so surprised and sad that Rhett felt an overwhelming sense of grief envelop him.

"Rhett no, I won't accept a divorce! I love you and you have to know no matter what I'm not giving you up!" Scarlett said in a strong voice despite the fact that she was crying and shaking. With that Scarlett O'Hara stormed out of the room and slammed the door shut behind her.
