The Unconfessible

Unexpectedly, Dai would say such harsh words to her. The person she loved and trusted after the broken marriage now seemed to repeat the same mistake. Why didn't Dai acknowledge all of Yen's efforts in her second marriage?

Yen tried to improve herself, spend more time with her husband and always strive to make the family financially stable... But Dai blurted out during a drinking session with friends: "A woman who has been married once like Yen will not have the courage to get a second divorce", and then he calmly treated his wife in a heartless and selfish way.

Dai and Yen had only been married for a year and had no children together. When they moved in together, Yen brought her daughter with her. Although she had to go through many hardships to marry Yen, after the marriage, Dai became arrogant, thinking that he had saved Yen and restored her honor.

Because of that mindset, Dai treated his wife indifferently and selfishly. He was stingy with Yen from money, time to affection. Dai almost did not care about housework, leaving everything to his wife. Before getting married, he promised to treat his wife's stepdaughter as his own daughter, but after living together, he could not do that. He was even cold, rarely talked to, took care of, and sometimes even yelled at his wife's stepdaughter when he was not satisfied... Yen no longer felt Dai's love.

External influences like poison, "slow and steady wins the race"... The gossip of neighbors, friends, colleagues... gradually made him waver. Combined with the thought that "the boat has sailed", he began to take the marriage lightly, even not bothering to keep his wife. On the day of the funeral, when drunk, Dai "bragged" with everyone: "Yen is very lucky to be married to me. I give her a wedding and a new family, that's more than enough". At that time, Yen ran down to the kitchen and cried, leaving behind the pitying looks of some people in her husband's family and even her husband's friends.

Until that weekend evening, Yen came home quite late, and came home alone. Not seeing his wife with their daughter, Dai asked, and she said her ex-husband had brought the girl home to play for a few days. Hearing his wife mention her ex-husband, Dai was not jealous because she knew clearly that Yen's ex-husband was a gambler, a loafer, and in debt. Dai was always confident that she was better than Yen's ex-husband and thought that Yen would never want to return to a man who had no money, no career, and was in debt...

On the dressing table, Yen's phone vibrated slightly, the screen lit up with a message that had just been sent. Dai curiously opened it to see, the message with only 12 words caught Dai's eyes, making her startled. It was a message from Yen's ex-husband: "Yen! I regret it! Come back to me!".

The next morning, Dai spent time looking up information about his wife's ex-husband and learned a lot of important news. Yen's ex-husband had reformed, restored his previous property, bought a car and an apartment... He also stopped playing around. Now that he had started over, would Yen be reluctant to return? The more Dai thought about it, the more anxious and uneasy she became.

Objectively speaking, his wife is beautiful and has a good personality. This is the reason why Dai pursued her, then overcame all obstacles to marry Yen. But now, Dai has different thoughts. Recently, Dai saw Yen sad and quiet, often avoiding him... Perhaps, women with a career and economic independence easily become depressed. Yen's ex-husband now regrets, works hard to make a living, and they have a child together, so it is entirely possible that Yen will return to her ex-husband.

Dai hinted at her ex-husband, Yen laughed: "Even if he changes, the hurt from before is still there. The feelings between me and him are gone. Even if I divorce again, I will not return to him." Hearing his wife mention the words "divorce again" so lightly, Dai was startled, his heart pounding. Dai hugged his wife tightly and said: "Let's have a baby now? My is grown up, having a child will bring joy to the family!"

The radio read in Yen's eyes the surprise and emotion, Yen leaned her head on her husband's chest to regain the protection of the past.

Gently rubbing his wife's soft hair, Dai understood that a confident and intelligent woman would never let past misfortunes hinder a happy and joyful life. She knew her worth and would only give her love to a man who truly knew how to appreciate and cherish her. Dai told Yen many good things about the future. But there was one thing he could not confess to his wife, which was that he had secretly deleted the 12-word message, pretending it had never been sent.
