Jennifer got into the car after she finished giving her speech. The show isn't over yet, but Nicholas forces it home. And finally he gave up. Most importantly he had already managed to make that woman crumble.
"Hahaha, I finally have a golden opportunity as well to destroy that woman without touching her." Jennifer laughs triumphantly after successfully destroying Natalie. He was seen several times smiling with a smile full of evil. He can't deny it, he's very and very happy.
Brugh
Nicholas slammed the door as he got into the car, overtaking Jennifer who was already sitting in the seat beside the steering wheel.
"Why do you have to do this?" Nicholas's eyes looked very sharp at Jennifer who pretended not to understand.
"You mean?"
Nicholas ruffled his hair in frustration, "why are you saying that I'm your future husband?" his tone sounded not relaxed.
Jennifer's face changed. His acting is back. "Why are you asking that question, Nic?. .. Aren't we getting married?" her tears suddenly came down. Amazing acting is indeed able to make the atmosphere become true. "Or don't you, you .. "have he paused, "have you really forgotten all your promises?"
"Not so," Nicholas was really frustrated, "arghhh." He clenched his hand. No longer know what he should do. On the one hand, Natalie must have been very hurt by what she had just seen and heard. But, on the one hand, she was also unlikely to hurt Jennifer's feelings. As agreed, she will marry Jennifer after her affair with Natalie's family ends.
"What's my fault, Nic?. .. I just want others to know, if I have you who will be my life partner, am I wrong to introduce my own lover?" Jennifer now covers her face with both hands. Acting as if he was deeply hurt by this fact, when in his heart he was laughing out loud triumphantly. He was sure that Nicholas would never watch him cry.
"I'm sorry, I!" Nicholas hugged Jennifer, "I didn't mean to hurt you. Really!!! .. I was just ...." her words stopped, and a moment later she saw Natalie's face in her mind.
"I just feel too evil to have hurt Natalie like this" Nicholas murmured in his heart while calming Jennifer down to stop crying, then let go after she looked a little calm.
"I'll take you home!" nicholas said as he put a seatbelt on Jennifer's body, while the woman simply nodded. "I'm sorry! I'm gonna marry you. So, don't think nothing of me! I'm afraid your health is compromised."
Jennifer nodded back. But this time his hand crept and held tightly onto Nicholas' hand. "You promised me you'd leave that woman and marry me?"
Teg
Nicholas looked into Jennifer's eyes with a full of confusion. This is a very difficult question for Nicholas to answer. Answering yes, it means he has to get ready to leave Natalie. Replying no, it was the same as hurting Jennifer.
"What am I supposed to say?" nicholas looked at Jennifer's hand in her hand. "We talk about it next time yes! .. Now we better go home!. oiya, Mama said hello to you." Slowly Nicholas' hand slipped from Jennifer's. He tried to shift the conversation, so that Jennifer forgot her question.
"Hmpp," Jennifer who felt that Nicholas was switching his conversation just answered as necessary. "I'll never stop taking something that's already mine" she said.

Natalie POVs
Indeed, no love that comes just like that just because of a meeting that people say as a first sight. It was just a sense of awe for the figure we just saw for the first time.
Yes, from the beginning I should have realized that Nicholas had never loved me all this time. I am too ambitious to live with it. Being his wife, being a complement to the life of a man who is considered very perfect in the eyes of women.
But strangely why? .. why did he say he loved me? why did he say that I was the only woman in his heart, while all the facts that happened after the wedding were none of them true. Everything's fake, everything's bullshit.
If he hadn't given me false hope in the first place, I probably wouldn't have been so hurt by loving him so deeply.
"Nat, dong! don't cry! .. I feel guilty for not taking you to this place." Eliza who was driving the car felt bad for taking me to the place where I saw firsthand what Nicholas was doing behind me all this time.
"I'm gpp, Liz. You're 'not wrong, so 'no need to feel 'not good, '" I said while trying to neutralize the feelings that are not good. Eliza is innocent. He never intended to make me sad.
"Yes, but .. because of me, you're going to see_"
"Udah, Liz. No need to continue!" I cut Eliza's words. "Maybe God wants to show me who Nicholas really is." My breath is starting to fade no more. The pain returned to being present. All the question marks that had been lodged in my head, about why his cold attitude and never wanted to touch me were finally answered already. Because there was another woman in his heart. Because the secretary named Jennifer was apparently. Well, I'm sober. He and I are very different. She's beautiful, smart, attractive looking, from a family of conglomerates. And me? ... Yes, it may be pretty and smart I have, but for matters of treasure and appearance, it feels like it would be very far when compared to Jennifer. So, it's only natural that Nicholas is more interested in that woman than I am.
"Liz, uh,"
"Yes, why, Nat?"
"It looks like I'm just gonna end this marriage."
Cittt
Eliza stepped on her brake pedal instantly, making my body stagger forward.
"Liz, careful!" I protested to him. Fortunately, the streets were deserted, if on the highway, maybe we were not safe anymore.
"Are you serious about what you said just now?" He looks in disbelief.
"Hmpp, I can't take it anymore."
"But, Nat? can't we talk about it all right first? maybe that woman really wanted to destroy your relationship?"
Eliza has a point, too. But, what I felt all this time made my life seem constrained and confined. I don't even know who I am in Nicholas' heart.
"Come, Liz. I don't know what Nicholas meant and intended to marry me?"
"But one thing is for sure, I never felt Nicholas treat me like a wife."
My heart really hurts. I can't take it anymore. My tears finally spilled back, wetting a blue handkerchief, a man's gift right on my birthday.
Eliza who saw me back crying, finally hugged me tightly. He said he would always be there for me. He will also support any decision I make, including suing for divorce from the man who is currently my husband.
