Just Once

Three years of marriage brought nothing but a thorn to my heart. My child was critically ill and in need of treatment. My husband didn't care and even called me unfaithful. In my desperation, I sold my body and soul in exchange for the recovery of my child. His name was Benjamin. Dominating the underworld and influencing politics, he was like a poppy that impressed, captivated, broke, and disillusioned me. He said that different from the others who approached me only for sex, he wanted every part of me. He also said that I was his only one and that nothing in this world could compare with me. Then he told me that these were all lies. I told him that these were true to me.

Chapter 55

I found Jacobs to drive me home after saying bye to everyone. While we were in the car, his phone rang. After taking one glance at it, he handed it to me. The phone lit up with Jeremy' name. Sighing, I pressed the green button. "Hello?" I answered.

"You left" Jeremy stated. I hummed in response. Obviously I left. "Is that your thing? Are you just gonna leave whenever we get into a little fight?" he questioned angrily.

I sighed as I restrained from yelling at him. "I just needed a break" I said calmly.

Jeremy was breathing heavily on the other line. "Was it you that needed a break or do you mean us?" he was seething. I could tell. But I don't understand why.

I left to see my family. Do I need his permission? Do I need to stay glued to his side? Wait, not the latter. He wouldn't want me glued to his side because then I would know about everything. And apparently he likes to keep secrets from me. "Are you even listening?!" he shouted.
