“Mum, you can't do that…” he protested.

“Don't you dare challenge me!” She turned and left, and the two men in suits followed behind her.

Luke adjusted his shirt, a victorious smile spreading across his face.

“You heard my mum. Come back to me.” He spread his arms and lowered his voice as he stepped toward me. “I will never treat you badly again. I've realized my mistakes.”

“I'd be a fool to ever live under the same roof with you again. You've turned my face into a punching bag. You can

  • The Cruel Husband Who Regretted Losing Me   I couldn't bear the shame.

    Rebecca“You mean you've been suffering through all of this? But the last time we chatted, everything was going so well, and I was so happy for you.”I could feel the comfort of the bed I was lying on. Maria was sitting at the edge of the bed, holding my hand.The creaking of the door made both of us turn towards it, and the familiar hospital smell became even stronger.It was Andrew, Maria's husband. The first thing I noticed was his well-groomed beard.When he reached the bed, he placed his hand on his wife's shoulder.“Good news Rebecca,” he smiled and added, “the doctor said everything is fine with you, your baby is very okay and we can go home.”I looked back at them, and both of them were staring at me. My baby part of it made me more relaxed.“You heard what the doctor said, Rebecca. Come and stay with me for some time, if that's what you want.”When I managed to sit on the edge of the bed like Maria, my feet touching the cold floor, I knew I had to say something.“Maria!” I lo

  • The Cruel Husband Who Regretted Losing Me   Could the dead hear me?

    RebeccaIt was either my marriage or my baby.Collins hurriedly drained the wine in his glass, making sure I drank my juice next.His eyes stayed fixed on me, sharp and cold, while his expression changed little by little as I lifted the glass closer to my lips.A voice echoed in my head. It was the doctor's voice from my last prenatal check-up."This is your first baby. You must protect it with everything you have, especially what you eat or drink. You're carrying something very precious…”Just as the rim touched my lower lip, my fingers suddenly slipped. The glass fell from my hand and shattered on the floor.Broken pieces of glass scattered everywhere, and the juice splashed across the tiles.Collins shot to his feet like a bulldog. His temper changed in an instant."What have you just done?"I pointed at the spilled juice. The way he stared at me and then at the floor was as if I had destroyed his last hope."A simple thing like drinking juice... you can't even do it. Get... get...

  • The Cruel Husband Who Regretted Losing Me   Was he part of the plan?

    My hands remained on the doorframe for a long moment.He didn't say another word. Instead, he stood up and slowly made his way to the bathroom.More than anything, I wanted to rebuild our relationship.I walked over to the sofa and sat down to wait for him.A few moments later, I heard him vomiting. When I felt he needed help, I stood up, just at the bathroom door, he stopped the vomiting and he sighed heavily.Next, I heard the shower running. The sound continued much longer than I expected. I couldn't imagine standing under a cold shower for that long without catching a fever.Finally, the shower stopped.When Collins came out this time, his steps were much better, having or no sign that he had got drunk.A towel was wrapped around his waist, and I found myself admiring the man I had always longed to touch but had never truly been able to.“You stayed?” he asked, looking in my direction.“Where else would I go? You are the man who breathes love into my life.”He immediately walked o

  • The Cruel Husband Who Regretted Losing Me   I had only two choices.

    RebeccaThis has to be the fifteenth time I've looked at the wall clock. Just a few seconds later, I raised my eyes and looked at it again.10:45 p.m.Collins had never come home this late before. I couldn't sleep or even chat with Kess as we had planned.I rested my back against the table, my face lowered to the floor.“If I had known this would happen, I would have allowed him to touch me on the first night of our marriage. I'm such a failure.”Tears rolled down my cheeks. We had a perfect family until the rules I thought would strengthen our marriage ended up breaking it.I couldn't take it anymore. I picked up my phone and called him.The phone rang and rang until the call ended unanswered. I dialled his number again, but the same thing happened.I remembered his warning never to call him, but he was still my husband.I lowered my gaze to my stomach. Even through my white nightgown, I could see the small bump.“I can't kill an innocent child just to prove Collins right.”Just then

  • The Cruel Husband Who Regretted Losing Me   Can we keep a little secret between us?

    RebeccaI was in the kitchen, almost done making dinner, when the doorbell rang. If I stepped away from the chicken that was already drying out in the hot oil, it would burn. As I quickly scooped the deboned pieces from the frying pan, the bell rang again.I wasn't expecting anyone. The only person that came to mind was our security guard."Please, wait," I murmured to myself, knowing he couldn't hear me.I was wearing a pink apron over a thin rope-strapped gown that reached below my knees.By the time the doorbell rang for the third time, I had already reached the door. It wasn't locked. If it had been the security guard, he would have let himself in after ringing once and waited in the sitting room until I came out.I wrapped my hand around the handle and pulled the door open.The sight before me caught me completely off guard."Hey..."For a few seconds, I couldn't say a word. My eyes travelled from his smiling face to his broad chest, well-defined abs, long legs, and finally to hi

  • The Cruel Husband Who Regretted Losing Me   Good arrangement

    Mrs HartIt was evening at my house, and my favourite TV show was on. My eyes were fixed on the screen.I was so absorbed in what I was watching that I didn't notice someone entering my sitting room.When the sofa shifted, I turned my face.“When did you enter?” I asked immediately.“Not too long ago.”“What kept you so long? I have been waiting. What about Mr Kess?”“I thought the two of you had already spoken.”“As scheduled, the two of you were supposed to come together.” I wasn't pleased, and it was obvious from my expression.“But that is not the best way to welcome your darling,” he smiled before asking a question I couldn't resist.“How is your relationship with your son? Did he grant your request regarding Miss Rachel?”“It is unbelievable that Collins granted my request, but the connection between the two of them is terrible. Can you imagine? He gave Miss Rachel rules about her dress code and when and how she could see him in his office. It is strange.”Amos came closer and s

  • The Cruel Husband Who Regretted Losing Me   Where is Rebecca?

    Collins"Do you think I am stupid? I gave birth to you. Just because you know computers does not mean you can trick me.""Mom, this is not about computers right now. You wrecked everything I have been working on. I do not even know how to fix the holes I found myself in."I could not sit down from

  • The Cruel Husband Who Regretted Losing Me   .....do you think I am stupid?

    Rebecca“Mrs. Ezra, do you not trust your own son?” I asked, holding her gaze. No blinking. No fear. If Luke’s torture gave me one good thing, it was this, a heart that does not break easy. She was just a woman standing between me and my freedom.“Miss Rebecca, I only asked a simple question.”“Shr

  • The Cruel Husband Who Regretted Losing Me   When do you stop obeying me?

    RebeccaMen are chameleons. If Luke could change, who is Collins? What is even wrong with my heart? I promised never to love again. Was I really starting to fall for him? Just because he welcomed me with a rose? Or because I couldn’t stop thinking about his abs after I accidentally bumped into him

I didn’t ask for her. I just told him I was tired. If I had known, I wouldn’t h
