Aaron POV
My name is Aaron Brylee. I am the only son of the Brylee family and the sole heir to the Brylee group.
Since childhood I have been educated in such a way by my mother in order to become a qualified company leader, and can make the company that has been built by my grandfather become more advanced.
I have sacrificed so much to meet the expectations of both my parents, including my childhood and my ideals.
Yep. Being a businessman is not my dream. I have an interest and talent in science, but both my parents certainly wish I had studied business to continue the family company, considering I was their only successor.
I followed all the scenarios my parents had made, especially my mother. I abandoned my childhood dream of becoming a scientist, and went to business school.
I studied seriously. Not one shred of time I spent having fun like most young men my age. Every day I just focus on learning and learning, until finally I can graduate with a very perfect grade.
Of course, both my parents were very proud. They immediately threw a massive party to greet me. Then on my return after getting the title, my father immediately pulled me into the company and gave me an important position.
Since then, my focus has been on the company. Every day I was busy with business and there was no time for anything else.
If anyone asks what about my love story. The answer is that I have never been in a relationship with any woman, the only woman I have ever been close to was Carissa, my childhood friend. An annoying chatty girl who always approached me and disturbed me, until finally inevitably I accepted her friendship.
But when we were teenagers, Carissa and I had to split up because she and I were studying in different countries. From then on, we had very little contact and I never got close to any woman again, even if it was just being friends.
My father was sometimes worried about my sexual orientation. But I can guarantee that I'm a normal guy. Merely, being in a relationship with a woman is a very troublesome thing for me. They're very elusive women, and I don't have time to deal with all their absurd desires.
And when I officially took my father's place in the company, more and more women approached me. They were all average beauties and came from upper class families.
But I knew very well that they were approaching me just because I was the main heir of Brylee group. No one really comes with a heart. I rejected them all too. Because to me they are just troublesome women whose work can only have fun and squander money. And I don't need a woman like that next to me. Too inconvenient.
Until one day a girl came into my life in a way I never thought possible. An unwanted incident led me to accidentally impregnate her.
At first I wasn't sure what to do with him. She's an orphan girl who only lives in a bar. There's no way I'd abandon her in such a condition, but I'm not sure I'd marry her either.
Although I felt really guilty, but I couldn't take a rash decision and just make her my wife, because it concerned my future and her life as well.
I kept thinking about the decision I was going to make, but still I hesitated about what to do. Until finally, I saw the fetus that the girl conceived directly. I looked at my son-in-law and listened to his heartbeat, the doctor who handled the girl also said that my son-in-law was a boy.
I was stunned and amazed. And then I realized that I wanted the baby. She's my flesh and blood, the next heir to Brylee's group. Of course he should have been born the legitimate son of Aaron Brylee.
And that's all I can give her if I marry her mother.
Then I married that girl. With a very closed wedding of course. I announced my marriage but did not introduce who the woman I had married was.
Right, I hid it. Because I didn't want her to be blasphemed by so many people when they found out about her background, even more so she was already pregnant when she married me. I do not want people to misunderstand and judge her as a cheap woman who is willing to do anything for social climbing.
Zaya, the young girl I married was very different from the high-class girls I had known all along. He was very innocent, innocent, gentle and also obedient. He never asked for grandiose things from me. He never complained about anything either. Since I knew her, my perception of women has changed quite a bit. And I admit, because of his never-difficult attitude, I started to feel comfortable with him.
My son, Albern, was born.
My whole attention was distracted by him. I no longer paid any heed to Zaya. Every time I go home, I'll just spend my time with Albern. Albern had completely diverted my world, and I had subconsciously ignored Zaya.
I finally realized that the thing that pushed me to be nice to Zaya lately must be because Albern was still in her womb. I also realized that so far I still had no feelings for my wife except guilt.
Then one day, Zaya did something she had never done before.
He came to my company with an appearance that I found very striking. I was so surprised. It's not usual for him to do something brave that can provoke me like this. I feel like this isn't her.
Negative thoughts began to pop up in my brain. Did she come to my office to brag to people if she was my wife? I became suspicious if he was just like the women who had been chasing me all along. Just wanted the position of Madam in Brylee's group.
I got angry and took it out on Zaya. Regardless of his words, I dragged him back home and treated him very harshly. Bad words also came out of my mouth, until then, the most inappropriate thing to do happened, I raped her again.
I don't know what had gotten into me, I made her cry and groan in pain. He kept begging me to stop, but I ignored him and kept doing it until it was over.
When she was exhausted and asleep, I realized the madness I had done to her. My brain that was not functioning began to be able to examine what had happened.
He came to my office dressed like never before, must have something to do with my cold attitude and always ignored him. She's not a woman who can play an intrigue to manipulate me, I know that.
He just wanted to get my attention so I could see him, and I cruelly treated him harshly and abused him. I have also said inappropriate words which greatly demeaned him.
I was really frustrated when I realized it and decided to go to calm myself down.
The next few days I tried to apologize to him. I also try to be nice to him. I knew he was still angry, but he still served me as usual and did not reject me.
But I did not get an apology from him yet, again accidentally I went back to hurt him.
While throwing a party for Albern, it was unexpected that the person who had previously tried to frame me came congratulating him with no shame.
He was one of the shareholders I crossed with because I once turned down his daughter. Then since her plan to build a relationship with me failed, it seemed like she held a grudge and tried several times to bring me down. One of them is by giving me a cursed drug that made me accidentally impregnate Zaya.
Then suddenly the old jerk and his wife asked where my wife was right when Zaya came. Fortunately, my mother was alert and could read the situation. Immediately he asked Zaya for the kitchen as if Zaya was a servant.
Sounds kind of cruel indeed, but it's so much better than the bad guys knowing if she's my wife. I don't know what he'll do to humiliate Zaya. The worst thing is the possibility that his life could be in danger because these two people in front of me really hate any woman who can marry me.
Zaya's hurt, I know. I even saw her crying bitterly in the arms of Ms. Asthma. But I can't do anything. His safety was much more important then. I had to protect her, even by sacrificing her feelings.
The next few days I tried to please her. I want him to forget his sadness and move on to more positive things. And he seems to be starting to look cheerful.
One thing I realized later, it either started from when, but it seems Zaya is starting to have more feelings for me.
I felt a little overwhelmed, because I couldn't repay her feelings. Until this point I still have no feelings for him. That's why then I asked her not to fall in love with me. I don't want him to fall deeper into me because it's only going to hurt him.
As usual, he did not argue. He tried not to get close to me and busied himself. He opened a business with his own savings and worked hard to build his business.
I secretly helped him so that he could face difficulties in the beginning of his business, but it did not last long because it seemed like he had the ability to develop his business. And I'm proud of him.
Years passed. Our relationship is still as it was before. Not close even though there is one roof. To be honest, I'm comfortable with relationships like this, because I can focus on the company without having to deal with unnecessary emotions.
But then I realized one thing. Zaya has a lot of sadness. He often cried silently when everyone had slept. He also often daydreamed blankly and looked bitterly at Albern, our son. She is not happy being my wife.
And what surprised me the most was that he secretly bought the house in installments for two years.
I wonder if he wants to leave me?
I never thought about divorcing him. Although at first my mother did not welcome him too much, but gradually he did not bother anymore and began to be able to accept Zaya.
Then what should I do if it turns out that he is tormented with me?
After considering it very carefully, I finally decided to let go. He deserves to be with someone who can make him happy.
Then I asked her to sign the divorce papers I filed. Earlier I had also given Albern an understanding to accept that we would be separated. The intelligent boy understood and appreciated my decision.
But what I didn't expect was Zaya's reaction. She seemed so shocked to know I wanted to divorce her. At that time I thought he was just surprised and would immediately agree to it if it was calmer.
Then as I thought, after that she agreed to divorce. But then she asked a very unexpected question, have I ever loved her? I was confused as to what to answer, and he passed before I could answer his question.
Then he came back to surprise me by asking for a day's dating compensation with me. I didn't understand much, but I decided to follow her wishes.
We went on a date to the beach. Then spend the whole day playing water like a child. There I realized that Zaya still had feelings for me. He expressed it implicitly and I was swept away.
Maybe because of the atmosphere, I subconsciously kissed her with all my feelings. Not only until there, when I was at home I was swept back to hear his sad words. I impulsively hugged her while she was asleep.
I was beginning to get confused about my own feelings. Why am I hesitating to divorce her. But then I convinced myself again and went back to my original decision.
The day we separated arrived. She came with eyes that were already a bit puffy, then signed our divorce papers with trembling hands.
Then without saying anything he walked out of the courthouse. I followed him trying to say goodbye.
He's stopped.
And when he lifted his face, I was very surprised. His eyes are so sad looking at me. There is so much sadness there. He was hurt so deeply.
What makes me even more full is when he tries to smile at me. Then he said simple words that made me feel like I was being showered by thousands of daggers.
In that instant I realized that he had been so deeply in love with me and kept his feelings all this time in order to stay standing next to me.
I really didn't think he could love me that much. How could he love a man who always hurts his heart.
I divorced her and made her even more heartbroken. But what I don't understand, why does my heart also feel pain? Am I starting to have more feelings for him?
Her hasty footsteps away from me made me come back to my senses. I saw him get in the cab and cry again.
Let me who is still staring at the nanar towards the taxi that has been speeding. Suddenly I doubted what I had done. I feel like I made a mistake in divorcing her. For the first time in my life, I'm Aaron Brylee, regretting a decision I made myself.
