THE PEBINOR

Chapter 61 - THE PEBINOR

After finishing eating, Arvin sat back on the sofa, while Melisa was sitting opposite her husband in the living room.

Dion looked at his wife, inexplicably Melisa looked prettier at this moment. Her face is bright with reddish lips, her eyelashes are thicker and plump. Don't forget, her hair is straight neat and looks very soft. 

"Why look at me like that?" Melisa asked as she looked at her husband with a look of astonishment.

"No."

"You think I'm blind, huh? You were clearly staring at me earlier, Mom. Is there something strange about my appearance?" Melisa asked her husband.

"No, it's just that now you look prettier."

"I'm pretty for the treatment now, first? I'm really harried because of lack of skincare, because you don't modalin me, Mas." Answer Melisa. 

"Then, who's modelling you now if it's not me, Mel?" Dion asked, making Melisa laugh. 

"Relatedly? Isn't it you just modelling your affair, Mas? Even on payday you halve my rights with her." 

"You mean?" 

"I'm not that stupid, Mas. I have eyes, feet and ears. You think I've been quiet all this time when you rarely come home? Ckkp.." 

"So.."

"Yes, I know all of it. Even I've known about your affair for a long time, Mom." 

"But why don't you.."

"angry? Do I have a right to be angry, Mom? It will only provoke your anger, and I know what you will do if I get angry. So, I just let it go and you're finally the one who exposed your own disgrace by bringing that woman here." Melisa answered at length, making Dion gap. 

"Just calm down, Mom. I won't hurt your affair as long as he doesn't offend me first." 

Melisa got up from her seat, making Dion flutter. His intentions, this is not what he wants to talk about.

"Mel, how about we start over?" Dion's question made Melisa turn around, the woman smiled bitterly. 

"It's too late now, Mom. I've given up on our marriage, even if my heart is no longer for you, Mom." 

"What do you mean, Mel?" Dion asked in surprise, to be honest he was confused by Melisa's words.

"You can certainly interpret it yourself, Mas." Melisa replied, she went into the room by closing the door of her room quite hard. 

"What does Melisa mean? Does he have another man behind me? No way, it's impossible." Dion murmured, he could not believe that he dared to do that. But isn't nothing impossible? 

In the past, she was able to calm down because Melisa burst into the treatment cage. But different from now, Melisa is much different. That woman is turning into a beauty now. Again, the same question came back to Dion, where did Melisa get all the care she had? 

Skincare with a price that is quite expensive, he knew it because Gia also bought skincare with the same brand, the price broke eight hundred thousand for one package. Then the face mask, there are some new bags, even his clothes are also many new ones. 

If you think about it, where did Melisa get all that? Remembering Melisa's words earlier, it means there is a man who gives all that, right? If Melisa herself who bought it, the sense is impossible because she only gave money to the woman as necessary, let alone to buy skincare, to buy daily necessities may be lacking. 

"Geez, I should have thought logically. Melisa must've gotten all that from another guy." Dion murmured, he reverberated his hair violently. 

"Mails.." Calling Dion, she opened the door and saw that Melisa was wearing lotion. She was wearing a maroon-red dress, looking very contrasting with her pure white skin, very beautiful. 

"Not anywhere, I just want to spoil myself by wearing new clothes."

"New clothes? From whom?"

"You don't need to know from whom, it's a secret. Gradually, you'll know for yourself." Melisa replied with her cynical smile. 

"Mel, do you really have another man behind me?"

"If you can, then why can't I, Mom?" Ask Melisa. Again with his smile. 

"No way."

"Why not, Mum?" 

"You.."

"Don't be too confident, Mum. I'm just replying to you, nothing more. So, we're the same, right? You cheated, I cheated too. Fair right?" 

"Saw!"

"Don't you dare raise your voice in front of me, Mas! I'm not afraid of you anymore, because you've lost my respect as a wife." Melisa replied, she got up from her seat and intended to leave. But his hands were choked by Dion, making the woman's steps stop.

The man hugged Melisa forcibly, then bit her neck leaving a reddish mark. Melisa thrashed, she was unwilling when her body was touched by Dion. Her pain now turned to hate, she hated her own husband because of the man's treatment all along. 

"Take me off, Mom!" 

"Why should? I'm your husband, and you're my wife, Melisa." 

"No, I'm not your wife anymore." Melisa replied, she continued to thrash in Dion's arms. Feeling overwhelmed by the man's considerable strength, Melisa bit Dion's hand and turned around and slapped the man's right cheek with all her might, to make Dion stagger to the side so strong his slap that was laid by Melisa.

"What have you done, Mom? Don't force me."

"Look, how dare you do this to me, huh?"

"Indeed why I don't dare, we're both humans who still eat rice." Melisa replied, her courage suddenly appeared. He must have done this a long time ago. Maybe he wouldn't have been hurt much if he wanted to fight back, but he used to be too afraid of Dion's anger, unlike now.

"You're a dissident woman, Melisa."

"Yes, if I wasn't conscious yet. Now, I've realized, that kind of man you have to fight!" Strictly Melisa, she came out of the room and went into the front room and locked the door. He did not care even though Dion was pounding on his bedroom door, also shouting like that time. 

Melisa stared at her flushed hands after slapping her husband's cheeks, yet she was astonished why she didn't feel guilty at all? Has his heart died for that man? She did not understand, ever since meeting Arvin, her heart had always been on that handsome man.

"Aisshh, I must be crazy." Melisa muttered while shaking her head. Don't be anyone else, he's also astonished by himself. Because he didn't feel at all guilty after slapping Dion. Let's just say this is a payback for what the man has done to him over the past three years. 

Not to mention the inner wounds he had gotten from the man were simply too many, physical injuries he had also gotten to Arvin wondering for himself why he had been able to survive with a man like Dion for so many years. 

Right, why did he just realize? All this time he had been silent when Dion hurt him, most of all just crying. After that, Arvin came to give him the motivation to change, and this is who he is now.
