Chapter 48 - Filing for Divorce (4) (1/2)

”Francesca.. I..” Alex was confused but he knew that it should be done. But before he could even finish his piece, Francesca interrupted him.

”I don't care. If you want to keep a Mistress, that's fine. I know I always get busy anyways. But please, don't say that you're leaving me. We promised to be together forever Alex. I vowed to the heaven that you'll be the only person that I will love on this world.” Francesca hugged Alex tightly, her knees was shaking.

Sensing that his wife was trembling, Alex held her waist to keep her from falling.

”Do you know what you are saying right now? How can it be alright Francesca?” Alex withdrew her away from him and lifted her chin up. ”It will never be alright.”

”Do you not love me anymore?”. A tear fell from her face, feeling that she's losing her husband. How did she forgot the the most beautiful treasure she ever had, was her husband? How did she forget?

Alex sighed and wiped her tears away.

”My love for you will always be there. Deep within me. You have been the source of my happiness for more than 10 years. Just that..” Alex pursed his lips.

”Just that, you love that woman now?” Francesca bit her lower lip. She was really about to break down.

”I'd be honest. Yes, I've fallen for her. She gave me this feeling that she will always be there for me. A feeling that you've denied to give me.

Love is not a one way train, Francesca. Love allows you to accept anything that the other person showered you and also being dependent on that person is not a sin.

Im not saying this because I wanted to hurt you. Please don't think of it that way. Its just that, I'm tired of being alone most of the time.”

Alex sighed and walked away to sit down at the couch.
