13 SECRET LOVER

Hayden sat leaning against the door wall, his heart completely broken by the marriage he didn't want.

"Oh my God, how long do I have to endure this relationship? how can i get rid of this problem? poor Sheren, have to suffer because of this. I have to call him, I have to know how he is." Hayden said while rubbing his face getting up from his place intending to contact Sheren who must be waiting for him at this time.

"Sheren." Hayden called when Sheren received the call.

"Hayden? why did you call me?" Sheren asked very surprised when Hayden called her.

"Sheren... Sheren, I need you Sher." said Hayden in a very sad voice.

"Hayden, what's wrong with you? why are you sad Hayden?" Sheren asked worriedly when she heard Hayden's hoarse voice.

"I'm going home now, wait for me Sher." Hayden said in a barely audible voice ending the call.

Sheren bit her lower lip, feeling sad about Hayden's burden.

"If there was another way, I definitely wouldn't ask you to marry Viona, Hayd." Sheren said with tears running down her cheeks.

In grief, Sheren waited for Hayden on the front porch of the house.

When she saw Hayden's car enter the yard, Sheren immediately got up from her seat and stood up to Hayden's car.

"Hayden, are you okay dear?" Sheren asked seeing Hayden's face look sad with the smell of the drink.

"I'm okay, I'm sorry Sheren. I just drank a little." Hayden said honestly while burying his head in Sheren's shoulder.

Sheren was silent, then took Hayden into the house.

"Why did you come home drunk Hayd? You know it's very dangerous for you." Sheren said while helping Hayden lay on the bed.

"I just drank a little Sheren, I want to forget everything. That woman really is the devil Sheren." Hayden said lying curled up and crying.

Sheren joined in crying softly seeing Hayden really crying like a child.

"Hayden... stop crying baby. Do not be like this. I know your sadness and despair. We have to be strong Hayden. If you are like this what about our family? do you want to see feeling sad too?" Sheren said while rubbing Hayden's back repeatedly.

Hayden was silent, hearing Sheren's words became aware of his goal of marrying Viona.

Everything he did was for his family.

"You're right Sheren, I have to be strong and I have to be able to control the situation. I should be able to get the company back as soon as possible." said Hayden straightening his back not wanting to succumb to the situation especially letting Abram and Viona's evil intentions.

"Thankfully, my husband finally found himself again. I've been waiting for something like this from you Hayden. You have to keep your goal in mind." Sheren said while rubbing Hayden's face with a smile.

"Thank you Sheren, you always take care and remind me to do the right thing." Hayden said holding Sheren's hand tightly.

"We remind each other dear." Sheren said feeling relieved her husband had gained his confidence and excited again to move on with life.

"You're right dear. Why lament what happened. I'd better focus on finding a way to get my company back so I can get away from Mr Abram as well as from Viona." said Hayden fully determined to get up again.

"I'm glad to hear it Hayd, hopefully what you want is easy to achieve." Sheren said with a smile.

"Sheren, I'm going to the hospital. Do you want to come with me?" Hayden asked as he took off his shirt which made him hot.

"I'll come with you. Wait a minute, I'll get your clean clothes." Sheren said taking Hayden's clean clothes in the closet and giving them to Hayden.

Hayden received clean clothes from Sheren and gave him his dirty clothes.

While waiting for Hayden to get dressed, Sheren picked up her small bag on the table.

"Are you ready honey? didn't we take anything to the hospital?" Hayden asked after getting dressed.

Sheren shook her head walking out following Hayden who was walking beside her.

"Hayden, after you get out of the hospital you should just go back to Viona's house. She must be waiting for you." Sheren said after getting in the car.

Hayden looked at Sheren then held Sheren's hand calmly.

"Don't think about her anymore Sheren, I don't want her presence to interfere with our relationship," said Hayden, still not telling about Viona's desire to live with him with Sheren.

Sheren fell silent after hearing Hayden's words. Sheren didn't want to make Hayden's heart restless with Viona's problem again.

"Alright honey, I believe in you you can solve your problem well." Sheren said with a smile then looked at the road in front of her.

At Ronald's apartment...

Viona poured liquor into the glass she was holding. Her heart was even more upset after learning from her maid that Hayden had left the house after her departure.

"What's wrong Viona? why does your face look annoyed? You're here to have fun, right?" said Ronald, Viona's last lover, after dozens of men who had dated her.

"Right now I'm upset you don't bother me." Viona said while sipping her drink.

"I won't bother you baby? what do you think that made you like this? tell me, who knows i can help me." Ronald said sticking with Viona because he didn't want to lose the gold mine that always flowed for him.

"Are you really going to help me?" Viona asked with a serious face.

Ronald nodded his head with absolute certainty.

"Alright, I'll ask for your help when that time comes. Now I still don't need it. I'll do it myself in my own way." Viona said with a look full of hatred.

"Then... now what should I do so you don't get angry like this again! Do I have to dance naked in front of you?" asked Ronald teasing Viona who usually danced naked in front of him if her wish had not been fulfilled.
