Chapter 1 The Hot House

"I regretted ever accepting to get married to you because ever since I got married to you, my life has been filled with pain and Misery, Alex" I said to Alex, my Estranged husband who has proven to be a thorn in my flesh

"Are you stupid? What gives you the audacity to address me by my first name, you bitch" Alexander replied

"Who the hell are you that I will not address you by whatever I choose?" I asked him to make a mockery of him.

"I am still your husband and I have total control over you" Alexander replied

"you are a motherfucker and a frustrated moron" I replied to him obviously wanting to see his reaction.

At that moment, he slapped me, sending shivers down my spine.

"you slapped me?" I asked him in surprise

"I will slap you a thousand times if you keep on behaving in this stupid manner ever again in your life, whore" Alexander replied obviously relishing in my pain

"you are such a fucking loser!" I exclaimed while I sobbed moving out of the room that always reminded me of my stupidity when I decided to agree to marry my estranged husband.

"Go away, you fool and goddamn forsaking slut" he said to me.

I felt great pain but what can I do?

I was left with no option when my arranged marriage with this criminal was the only way to secure my father's company.

I never knew that Alex was Alexander not Alexio who he claimed to be. If only I knew all these because I walked up the aisle with him, my life would not be in such a mess.

Even though my life is such a mess already, I have decided to be happy no matter what happens.

There was only one person in the world I know I can always relate my pain to without fear of condemnation.

I reached for my phone so I could call my mother and share my pain with her.

I dialed her number and she picked at the first ring

"good evening, mum" I greeted her

"good evening Emily, how are you and how is Alex?" my mum enquired.

She has gotten so used to calling Alexander, my estranged husband, Alex even when she is furious at him

"I wish I could say everything is fine, mom" I said to her, sobbing silently while doing so.

"What is it, Emily? What has that beast done to you" My mum asked me through the phone.

"This is not what I can say on the phone, mum. Are you at home now?" I asked my mum.

"yes, Emily, I am at home" my mother said

"I will be with you soon mum" I said hanging off the phone sobbing silently

I mustered the strength to walk up to my bedroom to change my dress.

When things started going awful between me and Alex, I moved out of our master bedroom

He did not even say anything to me about it when he returned home. Our marriage is miserable.

I quickly dressed up and got my car keys before moving out from my mansion. I was scared to drive in this state of mind but I had no option, especially with the fact that Alex has always been against employing a driver due to his insecurity.

I entered my family compound looking really depressed. I saw my mum outside, waiting to receive me

I ran into her, hugging her tightly

"it's alright my daughter" my mum said to me

She took me inside the room while I sat down.

"would you love to take anything" my mum asked

"NO, mum, I am fine," I said to her.

"ok, if you insist, my daughter. What happened to you my daughter that made you come home at this time" my mum asked

"It's Alexander, mum... We exchanged words today as we always do but this time, he did something different" I sobbed

"What did he do to you, my angel?" my mum asked.

"he slapped me, mum" I said between tears

"Alex did what!" my mum exclaimed looking shocked

"he slapped me after calling me a slut before leaving the house" I replied to my mum who was visibly anxious to confirm what I just said

"Alex must be stupid for laying his filthy finger on you, why would he do something like that to my only jewel!" my mum ranted.

"What do you suggest I do now, mum?" I asked

"what do you think you will do?" my mum asked

"you just need to be patient for a little while before we get everything fixed up" my mum continued

"for how long, mum?" I questioned, my eyes welling up with tears, however, this time for the maltreatment of Alex but for the shameful situation my family has been reduced to.

"It's OK, Emily. You will be fine, I promise" my mum assured me

"what if I die before then?" I asked my mum

"You will not die but you will scale through all these challenges" my mum said, trying to console me but I was not ready to take any of this again.

"I've heard you mum but I knew it won't take long before you come to pick up my corpse from this house" I said to my mum trying to make her see reasons with me

"I understand what you are going through, Emily but if you consider it again, what do

What do we do when we are being demanded to pay the loan of $1 billion?" my mum asked.

She had a point. I knew that we had no option at this moment because with the level of loan we are facing after the evil plot by my estranged husband, Alex has done to us all.

" but, mom I do not think you value my life" I said to my mum

"I do, but you must understand that we are in a very tight situation" my mum replied

"I understand mum but it's becoming unbearable" I lamented

"be strong my daughter, we will scale through eventually" my mum said to me

"Thank you mum" I said to her.

"Anything for you my angel," she replied.

I received a pornographic video. "Do you like this?" The man speaking in the video is my husband, Mark, whom I haven't seen for several months. He is naked, his shirt and pants scattered on the ground, thrusting forcefully on a woman whose face I can't see, her plump and round breasts bouncing vigorously. I can clearly hear the slapping sounds in the video, mixed with lustful moans and grunts. "Yes, yes, fuck me hard, baby," the woman screams ecstatically in response. "You naughty girl!" Mark stands up and flips her over, slapping her buttocks as he speaks. "Stick your ass up!" The woman giggles, turns around, sways her buttocks, and kneels on the bed. I feel like someone has poured a bucket of ice water on my head. It's bad enough that my husband is having an affair, but what's worse is that the other woman is my own sister, Bella. ************************************************************************************************************************ “I want to get a divorce, Mark,” I repeated myself in case he didn't hear me the first time—even though I knew he'd heard me clearly. He stared at me with a frown before answering coldly, "It's not up to you! I'm very busy, don't waste my time with such boring topics, or try to attract my attention!" The last thing I was going to do was argue or bicker with him. "I will have the lawyer send you the divorce agreement," was all I said, as calmly as I could muster. He didn't even say another word after that and just went through the door he'd been standing in front of, slamming it harshly behind him. My eyes lingered on the knob of the door a bit absentmindedly before I pulled the wedding ring off my finger and placed it on the table. I grabbed my suitcase, which I'd already had my things packed in and headed out of the house.
