My Wife is a Sassy Queen

Jonathan continued after a small pause, “After I returned home, I went abroad. I came back to P city when I was 22, she must have been 17 then. I searched for her but since we were just kids at that time, we had not shared a lot of details. Lydia Aprice came to me saying it was her. She had pictures, travel records, hotel records, and more photos.”

Liliana was stunned at that revelation. She had no idea that Lydia had started to play tricks at such a young age.

But she could not have done it at all by herself. Lester must have helped her.

She realized she needed to investigate it further.

Jonathan had no idea what the news meant to Liliana. He continued, “I instinctively thought it was not her, and sent Vincent to investigate. All search results led back to Lydia. Even so, I thought it was not her. The eyes, the vibe, everything seemed wrong with her. However, we could not find anything, so it was just there.”

Jonathan sighed revealing his weariness at that part. Ever since he had met Jo and Lil in Maple city, he had been regretful of his failure.

He continued with his tale, “I had just taken over Smith Group at that time and was incredibly busy. I had no time to sort things with Lydia Aprice. I neither dated her, nor acknowledged her, but at the same time, I never stopped her as hovered around me nor did I cut her off directly.”

He added in a low voice. “At 26, I was forced to marry Lester Aprice’s other daughter. I was fed a lot of lies by Lydia and Lester on my wife’s character and that of her mother. I wanted to find and marry the girl I had met on the beach but was forced to marry someone else.”

He lowered his head in shame as he added, “I have no excuses for my behavior or thoughtlessness here but I believed all the lies told by the Aprices. While I don’t have any proof, and I have not looked into her, I believe my wife is a decent person and not at all like the promiscuous gold-digger as the Aprices painted her to be. I treated my wife horribly. I don’t remember her name, I don’t remember what she looked like, I don’t remember anything about her at all, I don’t know where she is. Until a few hours ago, I had forgotten I was even married.”

He held back his choking emotions as he added, “Shortly after my marriage, I instigated Lydia Aprice to study abroad. I forgot about her existence soon after. A few months ago, I found the girl I had met at the beach. Which makes it even more certain that everything the Aprices told me about my wife and my mother-in-law was lies. I don’t know the whole truth about my wife, but thinking back on what I can remember, she is the biggest victim in our marriage.”All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Liliana lowered her head to hide her emotions.
