“I love you my wife, please come back to me!,” Irven begged me, kneeling in front of me.
I couldn’t stop the tears from flowing but I chose to strengthen my will.
“Love? What do you know about love? Are you a traitor? Is that love?,” I scolded him.
“I am so sorry!,” he couldn’t help but sob, I could clearly see the pain in his shoulder.
“Sorry? What did you think that just saying sorry would erase all your betrayal of me?,” I screamed and tried to remove both of his hands that were hugging my legs.
“Please… have mercy on me, I can’t lose you from my life!,” he still couldn’t stop pleading with me but I was already determined, he wouldn’t deceive me anymore with his mercy on me.
“Mercy? You already did leave me, the moment you cheated on me!!! You have no mercy on me, did you just think of me when you bedded that f*****g woman, none!! So what right do you have to ask for mercy? forgiveness? love? …. for me Irven!!! ,” I said my last blow with rage and contempt.
“Isabel… please…!,” was all that came out of Irven’s mouth.
“You can leave now… leave me alone!,” I pushed him away.
“No… no… no… wife? Please give me another chance… promise no more cheating… I won’t give in to temptation, just give me a chance to fix this mistake I made!,” this man really had the courage to ask for a second chance.
“Chance? I can’t forgive you for your betrayal, will I give you another chance to hurt me again… no way, Irven, the pain in my heart and mind won’t just go away.., I don’t think we’ll ever make it right, you ruined everything… what you’re asking for is not easy… so please leave now!!,” I told him in a long, stubborn tone.
I felt his grip on my legs loosen so I quickly backed away from him. He fell to the floor. I felt sorry for his appearance and crying but he couldn't blame me because like him, I was also deeply hurt.
"Go back to your woman. It's all over for us, Irven!," were my last words to him before I turned my back on him and quickly entered the door of our small house as siblings.
I held on to my chest and leaned against the door as I closed it. I never expected that my love for Irven would end up like this. He was the only man I trusted completely and who I devoted my whole being to.
But he is the only one who had destroyed me and our vowed lifelong love. I don't know where I went wrong and what I lacked.
I gave him everything. I didn't keep anything for myself.
It hurts so much. It feels like my heart is being cut open by the pain. He made me look like a fool. I believed all his promises. Am I not enough for him that he needs to marry someone younger and sexier than me?
I feel so low, so ugly and have no right to be loved. I am just a model wife, a kind and generous sister and above all a simple woman who just wants to please and dedicate her life to those who are important to her.
I gave up everything in the name of love. I gave up everything for my love for Irven. I let him chase and reach for his dreams. I supported him in all his endeavors. I played the untiring, loving and submissive better half but now I became his betrayed wife.
I am Isabel Mendez who believed, hoped and loved for the truth. But in the end I was deceived and hurt. Will I ever get back up and make up for being the Billionaire’s Betrayed Wife?
