The Secret Husband

Everyone knew Peter was crazy about me. But five years into our marriage, he knocked up his mentor's daughter. Crying, Cindy grabbed his hand. "I won't let Yuna know." Peter just stared her down. "You'd better not. I'm only helping you because I owe your dad. Don't get any bright ideas." She had the baby on my birthday. Peter looked at the kid like he was already in love. Then Cindy, all smug, texted me: [Ms. Zander, don't you think my baby deserves a dad with a real title?] I signed the divorce papers and caught a flight to Hampsburg.

"Tolong jangan tinggalkan aku, Sayang. Aku ak--" "Aku bukan suamimu, Loura Quinn." Berrand berujar tegas dengan nada dinginnya. "Omong kosong macam apa itu!" "Bagaimana bisa kau bukan suamiku?

Tangis wanita itu pun tambah mengencang. "Hiks." "Aku akan berusaha menjadi istri terbaik untukmu. Tapi, tetaplah mencintaiku. Aku mohon. Hiks." "Aku akan membuktikan padamu." Berrand cukup terkejut mendengar tekad yang besar dalam suara lirih Loura Quinn. Dan, bara api keyakinan begitu nyata di sepasang mata wanita itu. Berrand dapat merasakan dengan jelas. "Kau akan memberikan apa pun yang aku mau, Loura?" Pertanyaan tersebut diluncurkan begitu saja oleh Berrand. "Iya! Aku akan lakukan apa saja yang kau minta agar kau tidak bisa berhenti mencintaimu." Berrand menangkupkan kedua tangannya di wajah menawan Loura Quinn. "Buktikan, Loura. Buat aku tergila-gila padamu, Loura Quinn." ………….
