Good day, people of Hive. Welcome to My Blog. Today, I would love to share a novel I recently read titled "The Cheating Husband." So let’s dive right in.
I honestly don’t understand why some men find it exciting to cheat on their wives. Like seriously it's annoying, frustrating, and disappointing. Some men have beautiful, loving wives at home who care for them, meet their needs, and try to create a happy home, yet they still cheat on them.
So let me summarize the novel.
The story is about a man named Marco, who has been married to his beautiful wife, Isabella, for 16 years. They got married when Marco was 15 and Isabella was 14. They have two lovely daughters named Annabelle and Natasha. Annabelle the oldest is 15 years old while Natasha the youngest is 4 years old.
Marco owns different companies which make him the CEO, while Isabella also works in a company. Despite the fact they are married, Marco was having an affair with a woman named Nicole. Unknowingly to Marco was that Isabella had known about the affair for a long time. Out of love for her husband and concern for her children’s happiness so that they won't be deprived from their father's love, she stayed in the marriage. Her friends has told her several time to leave her husband,she didn't listen to them but kept hoping Marco would change.
Marco neglected his responsibilities as a father towards his children and husband towards his wife. Whenever Annabelle invited him to her school events, he always made excuses, saying he was busy. So because of his excuses, Annabelle gave up on trying. Isabella was the one always present for their children and also their school events.
Also, Isabella knew Marco’s excuses were because of Nicole because he gave all his attention to his mistress. When Annabelle complained about her dad's absence, Isabella often covered for him so he wouldn’t look like a bad father in their children’s eyes.
One day, Isabella had enough because she can't cope with Marco affairs anymore. She asked her children if they’d go anywhere with her. When Annabelle said yes, she told her to pack her bags and that she will also pack her and Natasha’s bags, and prepared to leave. But before leaving the house, Isabella removed her wedding ring, wrote a letter to Marco, then placed the ring on top of the letter, and left.
When Marco got home, he noticed that the house was quiet. He called Isabella, Annabelle and Natasha names and when he didn't receive any response, he checked the rooms and realized that no one was home,that's when he found the letter and ring after he read the letter. He called Isabella, demanding that she return with the children within 10 minutes. That’s when Isabella told him she wasn't coming back. She said she couldn’t stay married to a cheating husband. Marco, realizing she had known all along, begged her to return. He claimed it was a mistake and promised not to do it again, saying he can't live without her. But Isabella stood her ground.
She contacted her friends and finally agreed to meet the lawyer they had once suggested. After meeting the lawyer and discussed the divorce terms, she signed her part and asked Marco to do the same. At first, he refused. But seeing how serious Isabella was, he eventually signed the papers. And that was the end of their marriage.
What this story is trying to tell us is that some people don’t realize the value of what they have until they lose it. Marco lost Isabella because of his choices. And have noticed one thing, when cheaters get caught, they often say they’re sorry, not because they truly regret their actions, but because they got caught.
How I wish everyone would stay true and faithful to their partners. Just imagine how beautiful and amazing such relationships would be.
Thanks for reading💞💞💞💞💞.
