Heart of a Betrayed Wife

I woke up and realized that it was morning. I had fallen asleep in the living room while waiting for Nathan to return home. After I rose from the sofa and rubbed my palms on my face, I left the sofa and went to the bedroom, wondering whether Nathan had returned home last night after I fell asleep. I arrived inside the bedroom, but there was no sign of Nathan there. Then I returned to the living room to pick up the divorce document I had left on the table last night. There was no way that Nathan would want to divorce me out of the blue. I did nothing wrong to deserve that from him. So, that must be a misunderstanding. I must meet him and resolve the misunderstanding as soon as possible. Thinking about the kind of person Nathan was, I knew he would be at the company at the moment. I was in a hurry, and desperate too. I love Nathan so much. He may not love me the same way I do, but despite that, I am happy, as long as we are together. Taking the divorce docu

The bright light that penetrated into the bedroom made me wake up from sleep. I felt much better. Also, I was surprised because of the bright light. Was this already the next day? I can't believe that I slept for hours and ended up time traveling to the next day. I left bed and prepared myself for work. A few minutes passed, and I was in the living room, sitting on one of the sofas and eating the sandwich I had made. I took my medicine before grabbing my cell phone from the sofa I was sitting on. I initially wanted to check the time on my cell phone. But I did not expect that I would see some entertainment news that ended up hurting my feelings and ruining the morning for me. It was about Nathan and Valentina. Those paparazzis must have been the ones responsible for this trending news. Everyone was commenting that my husband and Valentina were perfect for each other and were going to make a great couple. I smiled, hiding my pain behind my masked smile. “Th

“Don't worry, Adira. As long as I am alive and the head of this family, you will always be my daughter-in-law and not someone else. Mark my words”. Mr Rodriguez firmly said to me. His words came out of nowhere. I did not expect him to say that. Did that mean the displeasure I was feeling within me showed on my face? If that was the case, that was not a good sign.It was supposed to be a peaceful dinner, but someone slammed their hands on the dining table and rose from their chair, and as a result of that, the plates, spoons, cups, knives and forks that were on the dining table bounced on the table and shifted from their original positions. The person responsible for that was Nathan. “Father, I have been meaning to tell you this, but since you brought it up yourself, then pardon me”. He declared, “I don't love Adira. You were the one who forced me to marry her when it was Valentina whom I ought to have gotten married to in the first place. You made me break up with Valentina, who wa

I walked through the open gates and hurried out of the villa, as I went to stand on the sidewalk, waiting for a cab to drive through. Finding a cab in this part of the city was hard. And it was much worse since it was evening. I was in a hurry, and not a single cab had passed. I was panting fast, and then, it struck me. I remembered that I had driven my red car into the villa. Recalling that, I slapped my forehead in disbelief and began to laugh at my own stupidity. My heart was deeply pained and frustrated. My laughter suddenly turned into low shrieks, with tears streaming down my cheeks. If only I had seen a cab right now, I wouldn't bother returning to the villa to get my car yet. The pain in my stomach had grown worse, and I feared for my child.So I began to wonder how I was going to return to the villa. I was stranded. With no other suitable choice as I was in a hurry, I slowly made my way back to the villa.Each step I took, I winced, because each step made my situation

Nathan's pov, I woke up feeling my head banging with a headache. As I swung my hand to the side of the bed, I touched someone, surprising myself.I turned to the person and, seeing Valentina's exposed body, my eyes widened, and that was also when I noticed that my body was exposed too. I got out of bed immediately and put on my boxer that was lying on the floor. After doing that, I went and used the blanket to quickly cover Valentina’s body with a frown on my face. Never in my life did I imagine having an affair while still being a married man. I was about to wake Valentina up, but that was when my cell phone made a ting sound. My phone that was carelessly lying on the floor had received a message, causing me to go and pick it up from the floor. Usually, I do not bother to check my phone immediately after it receives a message, but today was different for some reason. Turning on the phone and clicking the new message, my brows furrowed when I saw that it was her who had sent me
