The Second Chance For My Husband

Chapter 8: Arion Returns Home!

Peony was already relieved, after telling Jessica her sadness even though she was still thinking about Arion, still hoping that Arion denied and come to her to explain but what was okay to do, Arion herself did not realize her mistake.

“What should I do Jes?” asked Peony.

“Just say you're still out of town to work. Then, when you go home you stay at the hotel, but don't leave the hotel. You can stay here, before you file for divorce,” Jessica tried to run.

Hearing Jessica's suggestion, Peony felt that the idea was pretty good. He didn't need to go home and talk much with Arion, because that wouldn't change Peony's decision.

"Peony,” Jessica called.

“Yes?”

“Where did you meet Arion?” asked Jessica suddenly.

"Why? Meeting at his colleague's wedding, I was a wedding organizer there, along with several other colleagues.” He replied casually.

“Then, how did you fall in love with Arion? And, did you express your feelings first?” asked Jessica again,

“No, but I always approach him by signaling that I like him, I don't think he will know…” Peony paused for a while, staring at the ceiling of Jessica's house.

"As it turned out, he came to his senses and confessed his feelings.”

"You didn't know he was gay?” asked Jessica again.

“How did I ever know Jess, that he had a different s****l orientation from other men because he looked perfect? You see what I mean, he's handsome, the best businessman, the son of a rich, respectable--educated. How could I have a bad feeling in the middle,” Peony complained? Given her meeting with Arion, it's only natural that Peony actually doubts if she doesn't see it herself, with her eyes.

“Ah, what a pity for your fate Peony. Even so, at least you already know that he cheated on you and is gay too. Then, after the divorce, what will you do?" Jessica's question deliberately went in that direction so that Peony knew that of her true purpose in life, especially after this, it was impossible to just get divorced.

"I have to live, I'm going to stay alive, live my life as a designer and open another business, but I can't seem to get close to Arion back.”

“Then, what kind of path would you choose? You know Peony, regardless of what you decide, I will always support you, but, if returning to Arion is an option, I can only support you, and otherwise you will have to move on. Whenever you need me, I will always be there. Go ahead, if you want to trouble me, then come to me. I can help.”

Peony smiled at Jessica's words, “you just calm down Jes, I will only trouble you for no longer than a month.

At most a month, at the earliest a week. Let me stay here for a while, after that, I will move on and find a place to live. Take it easy, I will never forget you.” Peony hugged Jessica because her best friend was willing to help her and was always there for her.

“So, where are you going to live after this?” asked Jessica again.

Peony looked shaking her head, “I don't know. Can't find a suitable place yet. It may be out of town, or abroad. I can't keep remembering Arion in the same place even though it's not necessarily that we will always meet, but the possibility of meeting is definitely greater.”

Jessica nodded, confirming Peony's words. If it continues in Korea, let alone Seoul, it will keep reminding Peony of Arion and there is no way that woman can continue living if it continues like that.

“So, you haven't confirmed which country you're going to?” Peony shook her head at Jessica's question.

“I can't decide at now because I have to clarify our relationship first. And also…" it seemed that Peony was hesitant to reveal it.

“What?” asked Jessica.

“I want to know what the reason for cheating is,” Peony said.

Hearing that, Jessica shook her head and shouted in refusal.

"Why?” asked Peony.

“What do you know? If he cheated, it means he doesn't want you Peony, what do you know anymore? Hearing the explanation, will it change your decision?” Peony shook his head.

“No, it's just that I want to know what it means to marry me if in fact he has a lover?” Peony wondered what Arion was for sacrificing so many people if the rotten carcass was finally discovered as well. Or, who is actually the outcast Peony of it all?

“Ah, regardless of what it is, I won't care. The important thing is that my life goes on.” Jessica was happy to hear it.

“Peony, eat first and there is medicine in the refrigerator. You can eat according to the dose after eating to fill your empty stomach. I'll take a shower first,” Jessica continued and passed from Peony's presence.

Peony herself didn't expect much, after this she would want to be alone first, and didn't want to get involved with any man, after seeing with her head that Arion betrayed her, she couldn't be better than to leave Arion. Just that, he didn't ask for more.

Likes, Arion didn't feel anything, she only met Julio and wanted to return home, indeed Peony hadn't come home yet but she better wait for the woman at home, so he thought it was better than them having to fight even though their marriage was only a week old.

“Drake, take me home.”

“Not to Sir's office?” asked Drake because Arion suddenly asked to pick him up at his friend's house.

“No,” he replied firmly.

“Office work can still wait, I just want to rest. Peony, no news yet?” asked Arion continued. Drake shook his head.

Every so often Drake wonders himself, Peony is Arion's wife, but why is it even Drake who often deals with Peony instead of himself. It's strange, it's just that Drake doesn't want to interfere with anything. After all, the master's domestic affairs are not her. So, he just executed ordinary orders.

“Not yet, sir, is your master not related to miss Peony?” asked Drake anyway, Arion shook his head.

“You still call her miss? Didn't I tell you to call her Mrs. Drake,” Arion scolded?

“But, miss Peony said to just call her lady sir,” Drake explained. For some reason, so she was stuck alone between this couple, her inner self.

“Ah, it's really a stubborn base,” he whispered to himself.

“Yes, it's up to him,” Arion continued, which made Drake just nod. After all, Peony who wants to be called Miss why Arion who always doesn't accept it, she thought. It's just that, it was his mind and he would never voice, and otherwise he would end up on the streets.

“You didn't call him Drake?” asked Arion again, Drake just shook his head. Indicating he has had nothing to do with Peony since the woman said she went to work out of town a few days.

“No Master, oh yes, but miss Peony brought quite many things. It looks like he's going to be a long, maybe week?” said Drake as if it were a question, not a statement to be certain.

“Hem, yes I have,” Arion was silent again, until even home she just got out of the car without saying anything to Drake.

Maybe if Drake didn't know Arion, it would have been certainly offended. But, since this is Drake, it is certain that the man just kept silent and stroked his chest. Arion is good, but if you are angry, then don't try, and also never ask other people's business. Except, Peony.
