CHAPTER 2

Jessica entered the bedroom still holding the divorce papers in her hands; she saw her husband stripping off his suit as he stood nàked in the middle of the bedroom, wanting to take a bath.

She gulped hard as her blue eyes met her husband's unclad body. He might look like he's not aging at all, but he had matured and wasn't the same young man she had married five years ago.

Jessica remembered how her father had rejected Dylan because her family has a personal hatred for poor people. She had begged her family on his behalf and acted annoyed with her parents so they would approve of Dylan and accept him as her husband.

She had supported his business to grow, and now that he was successful and a billionaire, they were blessed with two beautiful kids. Dylan was now speaking to her about divorce and beginning to have second thoughts about their five years of marriage.

Jessica knew that marriage wasn't a "do or die affair." But she had tried to be the best wife she could be to Dylan. She woke up early in the morning to prepare his breakfast herself, as well as their kids'. She had to get them ready early in the morning to take them to school every day and still go back to their school after closing hours to bring them home.

Jessica knew she had put her life on hold to help Dylan build his life and their family by training their two kids at home and becoming a full-time housewife. Now Dylan was telling her about a divorce, and their five years of marriage were over.

"Dylan," Jessica called her husband to gain his attention, and he turned around to face her, having taken off all his clothes.

"What is it? Have you signed the divorce papers now?" Dylan asked, staring at Jessica's face coldly.

"No, Dylan. We cannot divorce. I cannot agree to divorce you, and you know that I love you very much," Jessica replied, wanting to believe that her husband had spoken to her about divorce while drunk.

She walked up to her husband and tried to embrace him where he stood in the middle of their bedroom, attempting to touch his hard, bronze, chiseled chest. But Dylan quickly caught her hand away before she could feel his hardness.

Dylan shoved Jessica's hand down beside her body and told her, "You have no right to my body again, Jessica! The earlier you sign that divorce papers and leave, the better for you to return to your father's house and find another man who will marry you."

"Dylan!" Jessica looked puzzled and heartbroken by her husband's statement, and her blue eyes turned red and welled up with hot tears.

She questioned him, "So you're cheating on me now, Dylan, that you can confidently tell me to leave and go back to my parent's house and find another man who will marry me? Is that how much hatred you have for me now?"

Dylan ignored responding to his wife's questions, feeling her eyes on his bare body and his dîck.

Dylan quickly walked away into the bathroom to bathe, while Jessica stood speechless in their bedroom, still holding the divorce papers.

Jessica missed her husband and really wanted him to make love to her. She was hoping that when Dylan returned home, he would apologize for being away for two days. Instead, he was speaking to her about divorce and telling her she had no access to his body again, depriving her of her conjugal rights.

Jessica looked at the divorce papers in her hands again as the bedroom's white bulb was still on, and the bedroom was painted white.

She walked up to their white bed headboard and kept the divorce papers there, safely on the headboard of their magnificent bed.

She stripped off her clothes and decided to join Dylan in bathing, believing he was still joking and doing all this out of the alcohol intake.

Jessica stripped herself naked and walked into the bathroom to join her husband, intending to torture him with the same level of torture he had just given her.

She is a curvy woman with a sharp, pointed nose, blue sparkling eyes, and long, golden hair.

Jessica knew she had a very nice, curvy shape, even after birthing two beautiful children. She still looked cute and sexy, and many mature men still wooed her and asked her out on dates. But she was a faithful woman, loved Dylan very much, and couldn't cheat on him.

Jessica had never looked down on Dylan, not even when he was poor and struggling.

She loved Dylan very much, supported him, and made love to him however he wanted it, as Dylan was a sex addict. They were already blessed with two beautiful children.

Jessica remembered meeting Dylan at a fuel station where he worked as a fuel attendant. He had sold fuel into her car on the first day they met. She quickly walked into the bathroom to join her husband, before Dylan would be through with his bath.

Dylan was standing under the shower tap, as he didn't use the white bathtub to bathe. He saw Jessica walk into the bathroom to join him and her sexy body made him hard immediately.

Dylan quickly stared away from Jessica, hastening with his bath and switching on the shower tap to rinse off his soapy body, even though he wasn't yet through with his bath.

Dylan rushed out of the bathroom, not wanting to spend more minutes there with Jessica, knowing he would end up having sex with her hard in the bathroom and unable to resist her.

Jessica stood speechless in the bathroom, shaking her head in sadness as she saw Dylan run out.

She murmured, "What's wrong with him? Why is he behaving like that?"

Jessica saw how Dylan had rushed out and walked up to the white bathtub to have her bath, as she mostly used it.

She entered the bathtub and started scrubbing her body.

Dylan walked out to the master bedroom, knowing he wanted to divorce Jessica simply because his first love, Rosie Andrew, was back in the country.

Rosie had visited Dylan at his company and in his office, where she cried and told him, "Why, Dylan? Why didn't you wait for me to return home first before you married another woman, after ten years of knowing me and proposing to marry me?"

Dylan knew he had initially promised Rosie that he would marry her when he first had sex with her. He was the first man to deflower Rosie, but not the first man to deflower Jessica. Jessica was still a kind-hearted woman to him and the most genuine lady he had ever met.

No matter what he had done to annoy Jessica, or break up with her, she never got angry; she mostly overlooked everything.

Dylan had told Jessica before that she couldn't go back to work and ignore taking care of him and their two children at home, leaving all the work to their maid. 'Did she also want the maid to warm his bed?'

Jessica happily quit her job as a banker at a big bank and became a full-time housewife to please him.

Jessica's car had gotten faulty in the third year of their marriage, after Nina's birth. The car couldn't start properly without a proper mechanical engineer to repair it. But Dylan refused to repair her car or replace it with a new one, even though he was a billionaire.

Dylan bought a new car for himself instead, irritating Jessica and testing if she would get annoyed and leave his house by divorcing him. But Jessica ignored him and managed her old car or used public transportation instead.

Jessica refused to leave Dylan's home and went to repair her car. He reduced the amount of food money he gave her weekly to take care of their home and their two kids, remembering he had told her, "You're too fat now, Jessica. You should eat only once a day to reduce your weight. This money will be enough for you and our two kids. Don't you watch your weight at all? Just two kids, and you're already looking like my mother's age-mate."

Jessica smiled and replied, "But I'm still beautiful, Dylan. You don't expect me to remain the same 22-year-old Jessica Albert you met and married. I'm 27 now, and it's expected that I've changed. Change is constant. Even you've changed too, my husband; you look more mature and handsome now than when we got married."

Dylan frowned, knowing Jessica knew how to smile through every difficult situation with him. She never got annoyed or nagged at him, nor did she look down on him or compare him with other top-notch billionaires in their state. She mostly encouraged him never to give up in life, and he got frustrated about how to divorce the kind-hearted woman he had married.
