Chapter 11 The bitterness of the past

Lance’s POV…The phone continues to vibrate, and I am looking at her retreating form, forgetting about checking who is calling. She brought up the divorce once more. Ever since she had returned, she had been singing one song.‘Divorce, divorce, and divorce.’I am so mad."Damn it." I slammed my palm on the steering wheel. "Who the fuck is calling me?"I look at my phone. ‘It’s my grandma!’I am surprised, thinking why she is phoning me now. We just met, right? Is everything okay?As I answer the phone, a frown crosses my brow."Hello, Grandma.""Lance, have you reached safely?"I breathe a sigh of relief when I hear her cheerful voice. She may be calling to confirm whether or not we have arrived at the villa."Yes, grandma. I'll get back to you later. Goodnight."I hang up the phone quickly. I have an important matter to deal with right now. I jump out of the car and dash into the house, my mood stormy.This is going to be a crazy night. I cannot let her ignore me anymore. Enough alre

Chapter 12 Ruby's Trick

Molly’s POV…The next day, I went to meet Ruby at the café where she had asked to meet.When I walk into the café, I notice her sitting at the corner table. I take a deep breath and clutch my purse as I approach her, curious about what she wants to discuss with me.Ruby, as usual, flashes her fake smile when she lifts her head and looks in my direction."Molly, you have arrived. Please, take your seat." She motions to the chair across from her.I regard her skeptically as I sit down. Ruby didn't wear as much makeup as she had before. Her face is unusually white as if all of her blood has been drained from her body. But she appears to be in good health.It makes me suspect again if she is really suffering from cancer.I'm curious about what makeup she is wearing that has turned her face pale white."What do you want to have?" she asks."I don’t want anything. If you want, you can order."Ruby laughs slowly, pushing the menu towards me. "You should place the order today. Lance will be h

Chapter 13 Falling sick

Molly’s POV…Lance's reaction was predictable. That was what he did every time.I don’t know why I feel compelled to explain myself to him. My heart aches as I stare at his stiff back."I didn’t push her," I finally say.He doesn’t turn back to me or try to know what actually happened. He just walks out, saying, "We will talk about it later."His cold response brings tears to my eyes. I stand there, speechless, watching him carry her out of the café.This scene is so familiar to me. He always chose Ruby and walked away from me. He never tried to find out my side of the story.His anger, suspicions, and accusations are too much for me to bear.My knees are getting weaker. I step back and sink into the chair. I don’t want to cry, I swear. This is nothing new to me. But I am not sure why I am sobbing this hard.Ruby is not worthy of my attention. And Lance doesn’t deserve my tears.Why am I crying so hard?I pour myself some water and drink it, my hand shaking.Ring-Ting-Ting…I set the

Chapter 14 Unusual behavior

Molly’s POV…The Stevens couple always treats me very well, and Grandma adores me just like she adores Lance. When she requests me to spend the night here, I cannot turn her down.Lance's eyes show a hint of hesitation, but I ignore it. Maybe he is planning to go to Ruby. I don’t care anymore. I decided to stay here solely for Grandma's sake."I will stay here," I reassure her with a comforting smile. "Now, you should sleep. You have already exhausted yourself."Lance looks at me with wide eyes, as if he did not expect such a reaction from me.‘This is not for you, Lance. I will obey the elders of this family as long as I am in this marriage.’Grandma seems happy with my response. She, like an obedient child, closes her eyes to sleep.Lance left to attend to a phone call. But I stayed with her until she fell asleep.The housekeeper comes to call me for dinner. I follow him to the dining hall, where Lance and his parents await me.I give Mom and Dad a friendly smile as I take a seat ne

Chapter 15 Molly’s unusual actions

Molly is clinging to me, rubbing her nose and face against my chest.‘Shit, man... I am getting hot.’Molly is finally ready to consummate this marriage. I am so excited. I don’t know how to express my joy, so I hug her possessively.Every part of my body is radiating heat. I am no longer able to hold myself back, and I don’t want to. My lovely wife is seducing me. Why do I control myself?I will make love to her the whole night."Molly…" I lift her face, holding her chin between my thumb and index fingers.It is only at this point I notice how red her cheeks are. Sweat beads can be seen on her brow and the tip of her nose. Her lips are quivering.I am stunned, my smile fading.Her eyes are clouded with lust. This is not usual.‘Something is wrong with her.’All my excitement vanished right away."Molly, what happened to you? Did you eat or drink anything that you shouldn’t eat?""Mm…" She only moans in response and leans against my chest.I am stiff as a stick. I don’t know what to d

Chapter 16 Molly’s query

The next morning…Molly’s POV…I wake up with the feeling that something heavy is pressing down on me. I try to move but get obstructed by something hard, which makes me open my eyes. At this moment, I am speechless. My movements come to a sudden halt. However, my tummy is fluttering.‘Lance…’His arm is around my waist. He is sound asleep, his lips slightly parted.I can't take my eyes off him, and a few vague scenes from the night before flash through my mind. Heat creeps up her cheeks.I took the initiative to hug him and kiss him. I actually seduced him.My heart thumps loudly. I bite my lower lip. I want to hide somewhere... anywhere... where Lance won't be able to find me.‘Oh, my God! What have I done?’Is there a hole in this room through which I could crawl and never come out?Whether I find a hole or not, I will surely find a place to hide. I don’t want to face him... at least not today. I try to roll out of bed frantically, only to feel his grip around me tighten.My breath

Chapter 17 A slap

Lance’s POV…I stretched my hand to find my lovely wife. It will be fun to watch her blushed cheeks. I intend to confess my feelings to her. I really want to know what she will say and how she is going to react.My hand only comes into contact with the cold bedsheet. When I open my eyes, I find myself alone on the bed."Where has she gone?" I wonder as I sit up, looking around the room.Assuming she went out to eat for breakfast. I also go down the hall after quickly freshening up. I don't see her anywhere... Not in the hall, not in the dining room. All I see is Dad leaving for work and Mom waving goodbye.'She is probably with Grandma,' I think as I enter my grandmother's room.A maid is taking her into the bathroom to bathe her. Molly is not here either.I frown and come out, wondering whether she has left."You are awake." My mom’s cheerful voice makes me look ahead."Good morning, mom." I greet her and hug her."Good morning, darling. How was your sleep?" She is smirking at me, an

Chapter 18 The argument at the bar

I suck in the cold air, clasping my fingers. I am stunned at what I did. Shivers follow shivers down my spine. I am terrified, thinking he will take revenge on me.Squeezing my eyes, I press myself against the wall. I can't see his face, but I can imagine how enraged he will be. I am anticipating his retaliation.A few moments passed, and nothing happened as I expected. The silence is growing thicker, and my heart is trembling with fear. I'm afraid to open my eyes and look at him.After a while, I hear him mumble, "Sorry."I gasp again and open my eyes, only to see him walk out. My heart hurts even more. I slide down against the wall and hunch over my knees, tears streaming down my cheeks.Lance’s POV…I am angry and disappointed, not because Molly slapped me, but because of what I said. I can’t believe I said such humiliating words to my wife, my love. The resentment and jealousy completely clouded my thoughts, and I lost my rationality.I am ashamed of myself. I don’t know how to fa

Chapter 19 First day at the new job

Molly’s POV…Lance went out a few hours ago. He has not come back yet. He must be angry or distressed.I don’t know."Huh…" I sigh loudly. The surprising thing is that he has not taken out his rage on me. His apology is still ringing in my ears.Did he really regret what he had said?I couldn't get away from the fact that I slapped him. I pout and shifted my weight. My hunger has vanished, as has my sleep. For the past hour, I have been lying on the bed, wondering where he could go.‘Why is he not coming home?’ I have lost count of how many times I have asked myself this question.I considered phoning him several times but couldn’t bring myself to do so. He would simply get angrier with me.I sigh once more and mumble, "I’d better sleep now. Tomorrow is the first day at my new job. I cannot be late."I remind myself and close my eyes. However, Lance's face keeps flashing through my mind.The next day…Oh my God!I gasp, looking at the clock, which is reading 8:30 am. I was supposed to

Chapter 20 The confession (Part-1)

Lance’s POV…I press Molly to my chest tightly, fury overcoming me. I have the impression that the walls are closing in on me. In my mind, I am growing bigger and bigger. If I don’t do anything right now, right at this moment to control my rage, I will explode and kill this man.My pulse is speeding up, and my breathing is becoming shallow.This cretin... He had the audacity to try to exploit Molly. I am not going to leave him tonight.I make Molly sit on a stool and pull the man up by his collar. I ball my fingers into a fist and drive them through his face, then into his stomach.Several people come forward to separate us. I am still angry."Let go of me," I yell. "He dares to touch my wife. I will break his hands." I am desperately trying to set myself free.Their grips around my arms, chest, and waist are growing tighter. They are pulling me back while I am trying to move forward. They are telling me something, and I don’t get a fucking word of what they are saying. My full focus
