Novel & Cerita Cheating And Regret

Freya swallowed hard and clenched her fists, pissed off. “This is the last straw, Desmond. After all these years of our marriage, you still thought it was okay to cheat on me in the open. You don't value me or your son. It's a shame that I just realized that now. I can't believe you think nine years of marriage is a joke!” Freya's whole body was visibly shaking in rage as the tears kept flooding her face. She didn't think she was going to forgive this one so easily.

"By the way, I kind of got drunk with Ryan last night. Did I cause you any trouble when I came home? Don't get mad at me, okay?" He was testing the waters with me. His actions were making me look down on him. What, so he decided to cheat on me, yet he was still seeking my permission to do so? I replied calmly again, "I'm not mad." "You're lying. You slept in the living room all night. You can't tell me that you weren't mad." I smiled and decided to expose him. "You were dead drunk and kept calling out another person's name. How were you expecting me to sleep next to that?"

“Revenge? For what? It’s pretty clear you’re the one who messed up, Alex. If anything, you should be trying to get closer to her and make things right, not push her further away. What kind of revenge are you even talking about?” Alex hesitated, then said, “I thought she moved on. She had a kid with someone else, and she’s been going on dates. I guess… jealousy got the better of me.” Greg let out a long, exasperated sigh. “Your ego is going to destroy you if you don’t learn to control it. Not every thought that pops into your head is a good one, Alex. So, what changed your mind? Why the sudden regret?” “I saw her son today,” Alex said quietly.

"Oh, right. You said high-society marriages are just business deals. That keeping a young mistress is normal. "So let's say, for argument's sake, I did cheat. Scott broke our vows first. That would just make me a woman who knows how to play by the rules." I took a step to the side, just enough to dodge Joel's hand reaching for mine. "Besides—" My voice stayed even. "You've all been dying to know who really owns Vespera since the buyout, right?" Joel's head snapped toward me. The cold night air bit at my skin as I met his stare, my voice quiet but detached.

Ashley stumbled forward and fell to her knees with a heavy thud. She clutched at my pant leg, tears streaming down her face. "Nick! I was wrong! I was so wrong! Please—please forgive me. For the sake of our ten years together, give me one more chance!" She wept like a child, trying to weaponize the weight of our shared past. But to me, it was nothing but bitter irony. Just then, a sharp pain stabbed through my abdomen. I let out a muffled groan, my face turning pale.

“You're hilariously something else, you know that?” I swallowed so hard my head moved with the movement, trying to force a smile that bluntly refused to appear. “Yeah?” He extended the chuckle with a firm nod. “Yeah, you really are.” I gestured slightly with my hand. “But that's beside the point.” I angled my head away, shifting my gaze down. “What I'm trying to say is that I don't... maybe I do, but I don't know. Right now, I think I don't regret anything I did with you, even though I probably should, right? Is that me being a cheat? Is it considered cheating when you kiss someone else while you're with another person? And if you regret it, is that supposed to make the cheating any less bad

He snapped his gaze to me, a faint, desperate flicker of hope sparking in his eyes. I met his gaze, speaking clearly but slowly. "But for me, it doesn't erase every disappointment of being abandoned over the past three years. It doesn't undo the suspicion and humiliation I endured in public. And it certainly doesn't make the hurt of you choosing to believe her over me at the very end simply vanish." The light in his eyes went out entirely, leaving only a cold, lifeless gray. "Once trust is shattered, it can never be amended back to perfection. What we had ended the moment you kept choosing her over me. The truth and your regret only put a final period on something that should have ended long

She hates me. Will I lose my kids now? I can't bear the thought of meeting them twice a month or whatever arrangements she makes. Ryan will take over. Not on my watch. I took a swig of my drink, feeling the burn all the way down. I deserved it. I'd messed up, big time. Cheating on Louisa with Jenna had been the biggest mistake of my life. Regret washed over me, threatening to drown me. Why had I been so stupid? Why had I thrown away the best thing that had ever happened to me?

“Yes. Though she didn’t say it, from her body language, I could see it clearly. How she leaned on him, reached to him to give and ask support, her stares, I’m sure she loved your uncle too.” None said anything afterward. But then Jeremy blew his breath and bent his head. “I said to her twice already that I regretted my decision to cheat on her. But now, I truly felt it. She’s a good girl and I lost her because I couldn’t see the right one for me.”
