Somehow, I regained my strength a bit. I was exhausted yesterday from looking for expensive things to wear and use tonight.

I was facing a large mirror while two make-up artists beautified me.

"How lucky you are to have your husband, Ma'am Athara! Imagine, he is the richest man in the country and even abroad. Very handsome. Very stylish. And the power of his sex appeal is damn obsessive. And you have him! I wish to be you!" said the gay named Jemar while fixing my hair.

I was smiling but what was in my heart was the opposite of the expression I showed them.

"Keep smiling, ma'am! What Jemar said is true. Your husband is really handsome! I'm sure there are many people who like him! If gays really had a chance, I'd put Jemar first in line!"

I suddenly felt jealous because of what Harsy said. I was more sensitive when it came to the topic of someone liking Theron. My mind contradicts my heart. My mind was angry at the fact that my heart was such a martyr when it came to Theron.

    The party continued. When I was young, I told myself then that I would enjoy myself while I was not in the convent. If I am only aware of my future, I wouldn't be here today. I should have been escaped from the world and stay in the convent."What do you do as Theron's wife, Athara?"Keigan's question made me nervous so I looked at my husband. What am I doing as their friend's wife? Well, I'm his wife on paper but he thinks of me as his servant. I clean up my husband's mess. When I didn't give him what he wanted, he beat me. That's me as Theron Duffins' wife. My mind returned to reality. I cleared my throat when Theron kicked my foot under the table. To be honest, I don't know what to answer his friend. "Probably, she's serving the king. He satisfies our King Theron!" says Herodotus. They laughed. "That's really the job of wives, isn't it? They ought to serve their husbands," I said. "Athara, how is Theron as a husband?" Rome asked. I swallowed. I suddenly felt weak because of

    I noticed that Theron was clingy tonight. When the guests exit to get home. Theron and his friends decided to drink high alcohol contains together. They all took off their coats. They are wearing only white long sleeves. I feel sleepy. Maybe Theron noticed this so he gently shook my body. "Love, don't sleep. We'll go home later," Theron told me. I blinked hard to get rid of my sleepiness. I want to change into my pajamas because I'm getting cold in what I'm wearing now. "Theron, what time are we going home?""Follow me," Theron said. Theron never informs his friends that we'll go outside for a while. He hurried out of the house, so I followed him. He headed to the garden. We are in the corner of the garden at Herodotus' house right now. I tiptoed without hesitation when Theron choked me. I held his hand and patted it. He pushed mw without pity. I fell down and coughed because of what he did to me. He violently pulled me upright. "Didn't I tell you not to be disrespectful? Yo

    I put on a strapped dress after I showered. Fortunately, my womanhood stopped bleeding. I was nervous because I thought it would never stop. I dried my hair. I sat on the end of the bed while waiting for Theron. I knew that what he would do would be unpleasant shit later but I waited for him anyway. I saw his frustration because he doubted his cousin and me. I know that he is a bad person but I feel guilty because I feel like I hurt him. I asked myself sometimes if I love my husband. And even though I will deny it, the answer would always be I love Theron despite his evilness towards me. I heard the sound of his footsteps so I looked up at him as he entered our room.I swallowed hard when I saw him wearing no top and only white boxers covering his body. I feel excited. Yes, it's stupid if it's stupid but I'm very eager to feel the warmth of my wicked husband's body. He slowly walked towards me. He ran his fingers between my hair and my scalp and then he pulled it. I just closed

    I woke up without a trace of my husband on bed. I immediately stood up and fixed the beddings. I was tired because of the things we did. I walked outside. I almost forgot to bun my hair. So I decided to do it while I'm walking downstairs. I looked around for my husband but he was not here anymore. I hurriedly prepare myself. I breathed like I was chased by a criminal when I got outside the house. "Fuck," I cursed. He would be so mad to me for not waking up early. My stomach was aiming for food but I disregarded it. This is not the time to eat anymore. I must hurry in moving.I looked out for a driver. Good thing I found one. I instructed him where to go and he drove off to company. I walked out the car and give him the amount he deserves. "Keep it all, sir. Thank you so so much!"I didn't wait for his response. I ran off to the company. I know that I look like a fool now but I don't mind it anymore. I just wanted to be as hurry as I can. "Ma'am Athara, good morning!" Everyone

    I'm inside the grocery store now. I finished buying the needs at home. I got out and immediately put some cellophane where everything I bought packed into the car. I headed home earlier before I came straight here. I fumbled for my phone in my bag because it had been ringing for a while. "Why aren't you answering my calls, Athara!?" my husband asked angrily. I sighed. He's so strict. He didn't care about me before but all of a sudden he got interested in the destinations I was going to. "Athara? You must be deaf that's why you're not answering.""Theron, I already bought our needs. The only thing I didn't buy was your condom. I'll buy it at another store!""Fuck? Really?! Are you serious about that?"I laughed. "I am!""Go home because it's already late!"I looked at the top of my phone's screen. It's still 5 PM. It's not late yet."Really? What happened to you, Theron? You don't care where I go then, right?""Shut the fuck up, Athara! I told you not to question me."I rolled my

    I waited until he fell asleep. We are here inside our room. I checked what time it is. Good thing because I still have two hours left before I will meet that slut. I changed my position. I am now facing my husband. I touched his forehead. "Shit!" I stood up and immediately looked for the thermometer on the desk. I returned to the bed. I inserted the thermometer in his armpit. He moved a little."What are you doing, Athara?" he asked me.I pulled out the thermometer after I heard a beep from it. That sound signifies that his temperature was reflected to the tool already. I shook my head. He really got a high fever."Theron, I will change my clothes. We will go to the hospital, okay? You need to see a doctor."He shook his head. Instead of letting me go, he pulled my hand until I was near him. "Don't go anywhere, Athara.""Theron, you are sick. I just can't stand in the corner and watch you unwell," I told him. "Just let me.

He informed me that we are going to visit Herodotus' residence. Now we are heading where his cousin lives. I am amused as we entered the house of Herodotus. I heard that Herodotus doesn't live here in New York. He just pays people to clean this house to maintain the tidiness in this place. "Herod, they are here!" informed the maid to Herodotus."Thanks, Ameline! I will head there shortly."As promised, Herodotus came shortly. He shook hands with my husband while he kissed my hand. Maybe he adapted this trait from the country where he stayed for so long.I shook my head when my husband elbowed me a little. "You are gorgeous as always, Athara! How have you been?" he asked with a smile on his face. My heart is immensely grateful for this man's attitude. He always helps my low confidence to at least level up. I

"Hey, beautiful?"I saw how my husband looked at Herodotus with an anger expression. When Herodotus looked at him, he throws his stare away."Dude, if I were you, I will go to church day-to-day to thank God on giving me such an angelic and lovely wife! She's incredible, dude!" Herodotus said. "If I were you, I will find a way to a woman's heart so that I won't be praising other's wife.""Are you threatened that your wife would be stolen from you?" "Herodotus, Ameline was looking for you. She's inside the car," I said to Herodotus.I decided to interrupt in their conversation because I saw how Theron's ears turned to be red."Okay, beautiful. Allow me to excuse myself. I'll be back," said Herodotus.We are in the site where they

  • Loathed Wife of the Wicked Billionaire   Epilogue

    Two years had come and gone since the untimely passing of my beloved husband, Theron. The pain of his absence still reverberated within me, but life went on, as it always does. I found solace in the comforting arms of our three children, Wisdom, Triumph, and Athro. Together, we stood strong, leaning on one another as we navigated the unpredictable journey of grief.In this time of sorrow, there was one constant source of support that held us all together: Mother Tanna. She had been my rock throughout this tumultuous period, offering her unwavering love and guidance when I needed it the most. Tanna had known Theron since we were young, and her bond with our family was unbreakable.On a sunny afternoon, as rays of golden light filtered through a canopy of trees, I found myself standing before Theron's grave. The marble headstone, etched with his name and the dates that bookended his life, stood as a somber reminder of our loss. I gently traced his name with my fingertips, a bittersweet

    My heart was beating even faster than before. Earlier, the police with Theron were shooting against Herod's men. "Athara, are you still there?""Y-Yes, Theron. Are there more enemies?""Ugh...damn," Theron moaned weakly but surely in pain, making me stand up without thinking that an enemy might see me."Theron? What happened to you? Are you hurt?!" I asked him worriedly. "I-I am not," he said even though it was obvious that he was hurt. I held tightly to the end of the cement beds. Now I realize where I am. I was inside the morgue of this abandoned hospital. "Theron, do not lie! Are you hurt? Don't hide anything from me, Theron! What's happening to you?!""N-Nothing! Don't worry because I'm fine. The best thing you can do is to stay there and not come out!"I walked out of the morgue, my heart pounding in my chest. The sound of gunshots still echoed through the empty halls of the abandoned hospital, but my thoughts were solely focused on Theron. I knew deep down that he had been s

    My right hand trembled as it swam inside my bag. I pulled my hand back when I caught the object I intended to pick up from it. It was my phone. I let out a sigh when my phone was in front of my face. "Love, we can not go ahead with the plan if you hesitate. We'll just find another way to catch Herodotus," Theron said to me as he grabbed my left hand that had fallen to the side of my body. I looked at him and smiled. "Theron, I don't hesitate. I just can't help but feel nervous and scared."He positioned himself behind me. He hugged me while his chin rested on my shoulder. "We can talk to Officer Lucas," he continued. I shook my head before facing him. I know that he was full of concern for me. The worries in his eyes were readable."I can't back down, Theron. It's here. We're here. If Herodotus doesn't put an end to his evil, I ... we will."He just smiled and pulled me closer to him. He gave me a tight hug. My nervousness and fear gradually disappeared because of my husband's hu

    It was noticeable that my husband was not very energetic. I didn't talk to him and I didn't apologize after I slapped him. I'm tired of the setup of our life. It's tiring to hide. I think it's better to live like other people, that's why I've made up my mind to coordinate with the police to make Herodotus' greed over. I informed Mother Tanna of my plan. We are now sitting on a sofa. We are next to each other. My right hand was locked between her two palms. We stared at each other at this time. "Have you really made up your mind to do this thing, child?""Mother Tanna, I'm not backing down anymore. This is for my family. This is for all of us. I know it's scary but it's not right that we'll be afraid forever. I've always wanted all of this to end," I said. You can see the fear in Mother Tanna's eyes. He pressed holding my hand. "Child, how about your husband?"I pressed my lips together. I breathed deeply. "He's against my decision, mother. We haven't spoken for a few days after I

    I kept staring at Lucas. I just saw his mouth open but what he was saying didn't sink into my mind. "What?"He adjusted his seat. "What I said is let's make your wife a bait. Athara is what he wanted to get from you, right? If he agrees to meet Athara, then surely that will be our chance to catch him completely."I stood up and immediately shook my head. His way of arresting Herodotus was wrong. My wife will be destroyed the way he wants. There's nonway I would let Athara be in that unsecured plan! "I'm sorry, Lucas. I won't bet my wife on this. What if my wife gets hurt? No way. I can't afford to lose Athara."Lucas gave me a blank look. I know he wants to go ahead with the plan. It was obvious to him that he wanted to convince me. "Look, Theron. Athara is the only way we can catch Herodotus. Security is tight at his house and I'm sure it will be difficult for us to get close to him because he is cunning.""I don't want Athara to be involved—""I will allow myself to be the bait

    The sun was beginning its descent, casting a warm golden glow across the city streets. It had been a long day, and I was eager to head home and find solace in the sanctuary of my humble abode. I stepped out of the office building, briefcase in hand, ready to leave this chaotic world behind.As I made my way towards the parking lot, a familiar unease nestled in the pit of my stomach. Glancing in the side mirror of my car, I caught a glimpse of a sleek, black sedan parked a few meters away. A chill ran down my spine as I recognized the license plate – it was Herodotus' car.Herodotus. The name alone sent shivers down my spine and evoked memories of a painful past. He was a man filled with darkness, an insidious force who sought to claim what was rightfully mine. And now, it seemed that he was lurking in the shadows once again, like a wolf patiently stalking its prey.I knew I couldn't afford to be complacent. Herodotus was relentless, a force to be reckoned with. He wouldn't stop until

    I glanced over at Athara as she fastened her seatbelt. The worry etched on her face was plain to see. Herodotus's relentless pursuit had reached a dangerous level, and it was imperative that we stay together, even on a simple trip to the store. With a deep breath, I mustered up the courage to voice my concerns."Athara," I began softly, "we need to stick together. I don't want to alarm you, but Herodotus is looking for you. He's become obsessed, and I fear he might try to take you away."Athara's eyes widened, and I could see fear creeping into her gaze. I reached out and placed a reassuring hand on her arm, hoping to convey some semblance of comfort."I will, Theron. Don't worry" she whispered, her voice trembling. "What does he want with me anymore? He got your company and the trust of the board."I hesitated for a moment, unsure of how to respond. The truth was too complicated, too painful. Herodotus's motives remained shrouded in mystery, his obsession with Athara unfathomable."S

    The water kissed my skin as I was under the shower. Tears were sprouting in the corner of my eyes and slowly forming transparent balls before they were rolling down my face. I knew that it would come to happen. I already accepted the fact that I couldn't please the board and they would wish me to leave my position, but I am not used to it. I remembered the moment that Mommy Thaira and Daddy Rondelle gave me the power to take care of the company. I poured my whole being into the company to improve it and achieve goals. I was the reason why the company was on top now. There are many things I want to happen and achieve as the CEO of the company, but I know they will never happen. I no longer have the right to decide what is good for the company because I am no longer in charge of it. I don't know why the board didn't want daddy to be the CEO again. What they really wanted was Herodotus. They chose Herodotus who was greedy and a traitor to lead the company. After I finished taking a

    As the sun stretched its golden rays across the room, casting a warm glow over the embrace between Mommy Thaira, Daddy Rondelle, and our children, my heart swelled with a mixture of joy and apprehension. It had been days since their visit, and I had been eagerly awaiting this moment, longing to be in the presence of the ones who had showered me with love and affection. Little did I know that their visit would bring unsuspected turns, unraveling a tangled web of emotions.The laughter of our children echoed in the air as they clung tightly to their grandparents, their innocent faces filled with pure delight. "We miss you so much, kiddos!""We miss you too, granny and grappa!"It was a beautiful sight, one that filled my soul with immense gratitude that they had found such unconditional love in Mommy and Daddy. But beneath the joyous reunion, an underlying tension pulsed, making my heart race with anticipation.After the initial flurry of affectionate greetings, Mommy and Daddy asked f
