"I have something for you. I bought it from the proceeds of Gisella's kidney sale," Dylan continued.
The woman smiled, accepting a necklace.
"It's limited premium! There are only three in the world. Thank you, darling. I love you so much."
My chest tightened. I sat down, devastated. My kidney was sold just to buy a gift for another woman.
He wasn't my husband, he was a crazy psychopath.
I tried to stand up, trying to be strong despite my broken heart. I peeked through the crack in the door.
My knees almost gave out when I saw who it was. It was Alexa, Dylan's secretary.
My hands gripped so tightly that my nails dug into my palms as Dylan put the necklace around her neck, then whispered affectionately. "You look even more beautiful in it."
"Your flirting is never free, is it, Dylan," Alexa replied with a giggle.
"I already gave you a gift. Don't I deserve something too?" Dylan said, winking.
My stomach turned, my head felt hot as Alexa suddenly sat on his lap. Alexa's hands were wrapped around Dylan's neck. Their faces grew closer, their lips coming together.
Dylan didn't stop there. His burly hands freely explored Alexa's body.
I gripped my shirt tightly. I bit my lip until it bled. If this were the end of my love, I would not stay silent.
My heart broke as l watched their disgusting actions. I froze in my hiding place.
"Dylan, when are we getting married? I've been waiting five years," Alexa said, breaking the kiss.
Five years! All that time they'd been having an affair, and I only found out about it now.
"I hope you wait a little longer, Alexa. After Gisella's gone, we'll get married," Dylan replied, smiling.
My chest was tight. They were waiting for me to die.
"Why do we have to wait, Dylan?" Alexa Asked sullenly.
"Trust me, it's for us. I can't just get a divorce, there's an agreement that binds me," Dylan replied.
I vividly remember the letter and Dylan's promise not to cheat on me with another woman, and if he broke it, then all his property became mine.
"Okay, but why did you marry her in the first place?" Alexa said with a frown.
"Because of her mother's debt. I married her in order to use her signature to sell her mother's organs. Besides, who wants to marry a poor girl?" Chuckled Dylan,.
It felt like a hard blow to my heart when I realized he had only used me.
"No wonder you always treat her as a maid," Alexa replied.
