I Hope You Will Never Regret

Valencia shook her head and replied, “Who can get sick when she is staring at that stunning face of yours? I am much better, my love. Thank you for taking care of me.” Xavier embraced his wife and replied, “I am happy that you are feeling much better. Go and take a bath. Chef Ambrose is preparing our breakfast.” Valencia smiled brightly, and then she went to the bathroom to take a bath.

Xavier took his phone and dialed his grandfather’s number. When the call was connected, he said, “Good morning, Grandpa, are you well?” Grandpa Taylor was beaming with joy when he heard his grandson’s voice and replied, “Good morning my precious grandson, we are well. Thank you. How are you?”

Xavier told him that he was well, and then he said, “Grandpa, Valencia told me that they attended her friend’s wedding in the USA.” Grandpa Taylor sneered, “The Moore family is playing us like fiddle. Your mother-in-law just confirmed that they had been to England.

She even gave us the name of her niece. Xavier, I don’t think your mother-in-law is sick. I will investigate this matter thoroughly. Enjoy your honeymoon and forget about this matter.” Xavier was shocked when he heard his grandfather’s words, then they hung up.

Xavier took his grandfather’s advice and stopped thinking about the Moore family secret. He felt that he would destroy his marriage if he was suspicious of his wife. What if they were wrong? Also, he told himself that he would stay married for the rest of his life.

A few minutes later, his wife walked out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe. Valencia looked at her husband shyly and said, “Xavier, please turn around, I want to dress up.” Xavier laughed out loud and replied, “Why are you so shy, we are husband and wife.” However, he turned around, and then his wife dressed up quickly.

Xavier took his wife in his arms and said, “I love you so much, my beautiful wife.” Then he kissed her for a long time. Valencia smiled brightly and replied, “I love you more, Honey. Can we go to eat? I am so hungry.” They headed to the dining room hand in hand.

Chef Ambrose smiled brightly and said, “Good morning Mrs Taylor.” Valencia’s eyes lit up and replied, “Good morning, Chef Ambrose, nice to finally meet you. I am your fan. I used to watch your Cooking Show on television. Why did you stop?” Chef Ambrose smiled and replied, “Life.”

Then he started serving them breakfast. Xavier told him that he didn’t have to wait on them. Then he walked back to the kitchen and started preparing lunch. Valencia smiled at her husband and said, “I want to taste Chef Ambrose’s Beef curry.” Her husband asked Chef Ambrose to cook Beef curry for dinner.

After they finished eating, Chef Ambrose cleaned the dining table and put dishes in the dish washing machine. Valencia smiled at him and asked, “Chef Ambrose, did you stop doing your show because of funding? We can invest in your show.”

Chef Ambrose looked at Valencia with sadness in his eyes and they sat down in the living room and replied, “No. I don’t lack money. Mr Martins took me from His Miracle Orphanage when I was sixteen years old. He sent me to one of the prestigious schools to do Grade 11. After I passed Grade 12, I went to the university to study a degree in Culinary Arts. That is where I met the love of my life.

I was doing my last year and she was doing her second year. One day, I visited her in her dormitory. She gave me something to drink and I felt dizzy. She asked me to take a nap. The following morning, I found myself under the sheets with her naked. A month later, she told me that she was pregnant.

I was so ashamed, I told Mr Martins that I wanted to quit university, but he told me to finish my degree first. He paid my wife’s betrothal gifts and we got married before she gave birth. Five years later, I received a call from her best friend. She told me that my wife lied to me about my son. My wife drugged me and staged everything; she was already pregnant at that time.

I went back home and took my son’s hair sample and mine and sent it for DNA. When the results came back, I was so shocked. It showed that we are not related. I cried for several days for the little boy whom I loved with all my heart.

From that day I told myself that I would never be deceived by a woman anymore. She broke my heart to pieces, and I will never forgive her for the pain she put me through.

My best friend told me that the child wasn’t mine, but I thought he didn’t like my wife. I stopped being friends with him. My wife was my world. If she had told me that she was pregnant, I would have forgiven her and married her because I loved her so much.

Mrs Taylor, please don’t keep secrets from your husband. Trust your love that it will overcome any obstacles. When the truth comes out, he will feel that you didn’t love him enough to trust him with your secrets.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Be honest with each other. In my marriage I did not even tell my ex-wife a white lie. When you are keeping secrets, you have to ask yourself this question. What would happen if he found out?”

Valencia had tears in her eyes; Xavier embraced her and said, “I am sorry to hear that, Chef Ambrose. My wife and I promised each other that we would never keep secrets from each other. We have built our marriage on honesty and respect. I believe that nothing will come between us.”

Chef Ambrose was happy to hear that. He looked at them and said, “I will pray for both of you, especially, for you, Mr Taylor, because you are very handsome. There will be temptation on the way, but I trust the love that you have for each other will make you remember your vows you have made before the Lord.” Xavier thanked Chef Ambrose, and then they went to their bedroom to rest. Would Valencia confess to her husband?
