Under the dim lights, I plowed as hard and fast as I could, but Winona Sundown, my wife, was still unsatisfied."Jonathan Slymouth, can you hurry up? Even if you're useless at everything else, how can you be so useless at this? Are you even a man?"I could no longer recall how many times Winona had taunted me over this same thing.At first, I even mourned and felt hurt due to my ego as a man. I had privately sought many advice and supplements to get Winona to be satisfied with me.I never thought that while the specialty supplements were so expensive that they cost nearly half of my monthly salary, they had little effect on me.When Winona found out, she laughed and mocked me for it, saying one could not make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. I was a loser in whatever I did.No matter how unpleasant and hurtful her words were, those were the facts.I could only compensate Winona through other means. As soon as I was paid, I would put 500 aside for my meals before handing the rest
Winona and I parted on unpleasant terms that day. I knew she was only streaming to give us a better life. Still, as a man, I could never accept the fact that my wife was doing that kind of stream.From then on, Winona no longer streamed. I took on all of the housework, thinking it would make her less stressed.She gave me the cold shoulder the entire time. Even though she was a woman with a high drive, she never once asked me to take her to bed.I excused her behavior as her still being mad at me. I planned to cook her a feast of her favorite food to put her in a good mood while I told her about the new job I found.While my job as a security guard at a hotel was not as glorious as my old job, I could find an additional job once I settled down.I would work hard to earn more money for her. I would no longer make her feel forced to do something she did not like.I had planned to surprise Winona with the feast, but she wasn't at home.I called and called, but she never answered he
After I passed my probation at work, I would always get home late. Winona would always be asleep by the time I arrived home.As I admired her serene sleeping face, my heart softened. I gently got into bed, careful not to wake her.Just then, her phone buzzed. The message lit up the screen before my eyes.'Tomorrow night at nine. Room 8102 at Pinnacle Hotel. I'll be waiting for you, babe.'It was a blatant invitation to meet in a hotel room. No matter how much I tried to bury my head in the sand, I knew that this was clear evidence she was cheating on me.Everything made sense now.Winona did not want me to work at Pinnacle Hotel because she was afraid I would run into her and her lover.She had apologized to me with a kiss to dispel my doubts. As for refusing to do it with me, she wanted to keep herself pure for her man.We had been together for five years. She once won me over by donating a kidney to me. Now, she cheated on me, turning me into an absolute joke of a man.Even
The last fragments of my awareness told me that even if Winona had betrayed me, I could not do anything with Sarah.In reality, Sarah had brought me into the suite to dump me into the bathtub, where she hosed me down with icy cold water.On second thought, Sarah probably didn't want anything to do with me. If I were Sarah, a beautiful and wealthy young lady, why would I sleep with a broke cuckold?After over two icy hours, the drug's effects had mostly faded away. After thanking Sarah, I planned to leave right away.However, she coldly handed me a tablet displaying the surveillance footage from 8104.Inside the room, Winona and the rather handsome man walked over to the bed. When they saw that the room was empty, the man mockingly laughed. "Winona, is your loser of a husband going to come?"Winona gritted her teeth. What she said next shattered my heart. "I deliberately let him see the message you sent me. I even drugged the stew. There's no way he won't come here.""You're stil
Winona faltered for a brief moment. However, she was soon back to cursing me out. "Jonathan, what are you saying? Be honest with me right now! Did you do it with Sarah, that vixen? You two disgust me! I want a divorce, and you'll get nothing!"I did not think Winona would be so great at twisting the facts. Gone was her usual gentleness, replaced by a vicious and aggressive fervor.Perhaps she had been putting on an act the entire time. This was who she really was.After four years of working as a hotel manager, I had saved up quite a tidy sum. Winona had also earned tens of thousands in the three to four months she streamed.These were all considered shared marital assets. I never thought of splitting up our accounts in the past.Now, the cheater herself was accusing me of being the cheater. That chilled me to the core."We can get divorced, but I wasn't the one who cheated. It was you, Winona. We can just split it in half."Winona did not hold back at all. "Jonathan, I thought
Sarah and I met each other long before I met Winona. From the moment she stepped onto the campus, Sarah was the belle of the school. Naturally, she had plenty of admiring suitors.I never once tried to date her. It would be a lie to say I was not tempted to ask her out. She was the goddess and idol of all of my male friends.There was also no way for me to ignore the multiple times she indicated her feelings for me.However, I knew there was a wall between our worlds. I was an orphan, and the only reason I could attend Quivron University was the donation from an entrepreneur.Unfortunately, that entrepreneur was Sarah's father.Perhaps I liked her as well, but there was no way that could overshadow the fact that Winona had donated her kidney out of love for me. That was a debt I could never repay.However, I also did something that made me indebted in guilt to Sarah for life.As it was time to submit our theses, I helped Winona fake her thesis. I falsified evidence when Winona s
Throughout the hours until I clocked off, I worked in a dazed state. My mind was a chaotic mess. All I wanted to know was the truth.If Sarah was telling the truth, then my marriage with Winona was built on lies.I had tolerated Winona's cheating and remained married to her because she donated her kidney to me. What a joke.By the time I arrived home, it was nearly dark. My heart was as dead as the night sky.I numbly pushed the door open. No one was in the living room, but I could hear Winona talking in the bedroom."Harold, I've searched the entire apartment, but I still can't find the necklace you speak of. Does that loser even have it?" My heart stuttered in shock. How did Harold know of my necklace? Just what did they want?I could not hear what he said through the door. All I knew was that he was urging Winona to make her move."I want to do it too. I don't know what's going on with that darned man. The last time I seduced him, he did not even bite. Who knows what's wrong
There was a strange feeling swelling in me. I was not worthy of all the effort Sarah was putting into me.At this point, I was just a worthless loser. It did not matter if she pitied me or liked me.Five years ago, I was not worthy of her. Now, I was in a worse state, so I was even less worthy.I stood there for a long time, unmoving. I didn't even notice Sarah walking closer to me.Her warm breath brushed against my neck. Now that she was standing closer, I could smell the alcohol in her breath.I wanted to push her away and make her something to help her sober up, but she insistently leaned into my arms.I held my arms up high in the air, too afraid to even touch her.She did not say a single word. As awkwardness descended, she suddenly looked up at me. "Jonathan, answer me this. Do you like me?"Truthfully speaking, I once truly loved her. However, there was a huge divide between us. That divide did not vanish in the last five years. Instead, it grew wider and wider until it
