My Alpha Mate Wants Me Back

NATHALIE’S POV

-

When I got my passbook from the bank teller, I checked its contents. A bitter smile touched my lips after seeing only eigthy dollars left on my bank account.

After all the important thing I have paid off the debt and I no longer owe monthly payments.

After leaving the bank and since I was already at the mall, I bought a chocolate cake.

“Ma’am, what should I put on the dedication cake?” The person who assisted me at this cake shop asked.

“Happy fourth wedding anniversary,” I answered the woman with a smile.

“Wow! Congratulations, Ma’am.”

“Thank you.”

After buying the cake, I also bought a platter of spaghetti. Joshua, my husband, told me he would be busy and would work overtime, so I wanted to surprise him.

He worked for a multi-billionaire jewelry company, therefore he was often busy and almost slept there. 

We need to get better at work to pay off all our debts. I often help him with his works and other work for the company.

My surprises are sure to bring a huge smile to his face. Aside from paid our debt, I can get a promotion tomorrow if my presentation is successful.

I can’t wait to tell all the good news to my husband and this time we can start a family.

Upon arriving at the company, I signed first for the visitor’s lounge.

“Thank you,” I said, thanking the staff for giving me my visitor ID.

I headed straight for the elevator and, with office hours having concluded almost two hours prior, I saw no employees and reached the level where my husband was.

I surveyed surroundings and noticed an absence of people.

I proceeded to Joshua’s table and placed the food. The bag he always brought was still there, so that meant he hadn’t left yet.

“Ooh! Ahh!”

I looked where a woman’s moan came from.

“A-Ahh, baby!”

I walked slowly and tried not to make any noise.

Afraid to even hear my breathing, I hold my breath.

“A-Ahhh!!”

Arriving outside the office where the voice came from, the door opened slightly, allowing a glimpse of the occupant. My husband was visible on the sofa, between my best friend’s legs, both naked and both ejaculating, kissing each other as if they were so hungry for each other.

I couldn’t bear to look at them. They disgusted me.

I’m not certain how I walked with the tenderness I felt. I left that floor and went straight out of this company.

I took the first taxi I had encountered. When I got in, I told the driver my exact address.

How were two important people in my life able to do this to me? My husband is the only man who loved me and Hazel, the only best-friend since we were in middle school.

————

As I entered the house, I cried unceasingly. I filled every corner of the house with my cries.

Never in my dreams would I have thought they would do this to me. 

I didn’t realize how many hours I cried and I just noticed my unfaithful husband’s arrival.

I stood up to talk to him thoroughly.

I am uncertain how to address him regarding what I witnessed, how to commence. I don’t want us to end up arguing. 

I opened my mouth, but before I could speak, he spoke first, which I stopped.

“Our marriage is no longer valid.”

He took a folder from his bag and placed it on the table.

“Aren’t you going to explain why you cheated on me—”

“I don’t love you.” He sounded sure of every word he uttered.

My jaw was hanging in the air. My brain couldn’t process what he said.

He didn’t love me, he didn’t love me anymore. Those two are different.

He let out a sigh. “I saw what you left on my table, I presume you saw me and—”

My palm flew to his cheek. This was the first time my palm had touched his cheek like this.

“You don’t even intend to explain?” I asked in disbelief while holding back tears.

“I don’t love you. What don’t you understand about that?” He asks irritably. 

“You don’t love me? We’ve been married for four years. Why did you do this to me now? Of all people, why my best-friend?”

“Your friend can help me get promoted to general manager of the company. Have you got know on the position’s level and the salary it offers? If her mother resigns, they will help be the next general manager of multi-billionaire company.”

Before we got married, we separated for three years—after we graduated from college. He subsequently returned to me and, following our intimidate wedding, he joined the company where Hazel is working with Hazel’s assistance and her mother. 

Ever since he started working, I’ve been doing almost all of his reports, so it’s like I have two jobs, but all of my salary goes to paying bills and paying off his debt and his parents debt–which we owe because we got married.

“I don’t need your help anymore to do my job,” he said with a smile. “Hazel will help me get a higher position in that company.”

He stayed at his job for a long time because of me, because of my making his works. All this time, he just used me it to last at work.

“I should have given you this last month and told you,” he said without hesitation.

Last month, I stayed up several nights to do his fault reports. After revising several times, it was approved. 

I didn’t even receive a thank you from him, thinking he was so busy why he forgot to say at least thank you.

Joshua removed the documents from the folder and handed them to me. “We’ve been divorced for over a month.”
