Cheating Dalam Hubungan Adalah

Lima tahun setelah kematianku, ibuku menerima telepon dari polisi yang mengatakan bahwa ada kabar tentang diriku. Ibu bergegas pulang ke kampung halamannya bersama adik laki-lakiku. Setibanya di sana, dia langsung mendobrak pintu rumah nenek. "Mana Stella? Jago juga anak sialan itu bersembunyi. Cepat ambil kornea matanya buat adiknya." "Stella sudah meninggal," ucap Nenek terbata-bata sambil menangis. Ibu malah mencibir, "Bohong, polisi sudah meneleponku dan mengatakan kalau sudah ada kabar tentang dia." "Dasar nenek tua sialan! Kalau kamu nggak menyerahkannya sekarang, keluar sana dari rumah ini." Melihat sikap ibu, nenek menangis dan mengeluarkan fotoku dengan gemetar. "Stella, kamu nyesel tolongin adikmu?"

Anggur merah mengalir perlahan menyusuri leherku yang jenjang, turun hingga ke tulang selangka, lalu ke bagian dadaku yang putih dan berisi. Cairan merah itu membasahi kedua buah dadaku, sebagian mengalir ke celah yang dalam di antaranya, lalu merembes ke kemeja putih yang kukenakan. Pakaianku pun menempel erat di tubuhku, membuat dua tonjolan lembut di dadaku tampak samar di baliknya. Tubuhku mulai bergetar pelan karena gugup, tetapi di saat yang sama, ada sensasi tegang yang sulit dijelaskan. Ini pertama kalinya aku dengan sadar mencoba menggoda pria lain selain suamiku.

Lima tahun setelah aku meninggal, putriku, Elsy menelepon Gavin Geraldy. Elsy bertanya pada Gavin, "Kamu suka ibuku?" Dia melihat kalimat yang tertera di buku harianku. "Gavin, kamu suka aku?" Tak disangka, Gavin malah menjawab dengan nada sinis, "Ibumu yang suruh kamu tanyakan ini? Anak sendiri pun dia tega manfaatkan? Wanita murahan ini. Sudah nikah sama ayahmu, masih mengharapkanku?"

Pada usia 10 tahun, kakakku meninggal saat kami bolos untuk pergi bermain. Sejak saat itu, ibuku membenciku, mengira aku yang mencelakai kakakku. Dia memperlakukanku seperti pembantu dan mengadopsi anak perempuan yang patuh untuk menggantikan posisi kakakku. Ibuku merebut semuanya dariku, bahkan memintaku mendonorkan ginjal untuk putri adopsinya itu! Oke, Ibu. Karena kamu mau begitu, aku akan memberi nyawaku ini kepadamu! Setelah aku mati, dia baru menyesal.

I lost my eyesight to save Sean Sherman. He had once made a vow in front of everyone, "Rachel Todd, even if you can't see, I will take care of you for the rest of my life." I was deeply moved. I secretly sought out treatment and I kept the recovery of my eyesight a secret as a surprise for him. But on the day I regained my sight, I saw Sean holding his childhood sweetheart, Vivian Cross, in his arms, fooling around with her right in front of me. "You last really long today. Is it because your wife is watching us?" "What do you think? She was the one who bought me these protection products." I understood every word of their sign language. At that moment, my blood ran cold. Suppressing the nausea that was about to overwhelm me, I pulled out my phone and sent a message to the research team that had been inviting me for a long time. I told them yes—I would join their research project. I was going to leave Sean behind and make sure he lived the rest of his life in regret.

The housekeeper deliberately reveals her busty chest when I'm out of the house. She says coquettishly to my husband, "Oh, my. This is an accident, Mr. Houston …" My husband looks like he's focusing on his drink, but he keeps sneaking looks at her. I see all of this from the housekeeper's livestream.

As she had wished, I succumbed to sickness in that rented apartment. Fortunately for me, I woke up again to the day I first sponsored Janice.

My best friend takes me to a beauty salon for a facial. A young and handsome employee there latches onto me. He's tall, good-looking, and is great with women. He knows just the right things to say and is flirtatious without being lecherous. He shows me the pleasures of being a woman… I forget all about my boyfriend and allow him to make me descend into the throes of passion. What I don't know is that there's a price I can't pay behind the gentleness…

Six years of marriage, and I'm finally pregnant! My husband is an Alpha. To give him an heir, I had gone through countless rounds of ovulation shots, swallowed all sorts of herbal concoctions made by witch doctors, and even been forced to insert some strange things into my private parts! But now, it's worked! I planned a romantic road trip, hoping to surprise him when we got to the resort. Of course, he insisted we bring Kelly along. Kelly is his Beta—beautiful, tough, and a bit of a warrior. The heat was unbearable, so I went to the trunk to grab a soda from the small cooler, but Kelly accused me of trying to smash her with it. "Apologize to Kelly!" my husband ordered firmly. "No! I didn't do anything!" I protested. So, they both dumped me in the middle of nowhere. It took everything I had to escape the three Rogues who were after me. But when I finally made it back to the hotel, I found Kelly on top of my husband. "Ana, you can't have children. Kelly just wanted to help us have one," he said shamelessly.

The night before the wedding, I received the dress my fiancé had sent—lavish, yet clearly the wrong size. His female secretary tearfully apologized, while my fiancé looked at me and said, "Don't forget, without me, you're nothing." I turned away, threw the dress aside, and called off the engagement.
