Kapitel 4: In his way

"It would be a lie after living together i wouldn't feel a thing for him. A marriage is not something for me to play with. Once i took an oath, i gave all of my heart to that person only. Even if he betrays and cheated on me. Even if i was slandered and being looked down, i would still give my all. For the past three years, i was happy despite what people see and what he does." Aurora said with a tinge of warmness. It was enough. Thinking about the times she was married to him, she knew in his way he shows his concern. In his way, he took care of her behind everyone's back. In his way, he did protected her even if it's a little bit. That alone is enough for her to forgive him and tolerate everything he does. She's been in a horrendous situation before but she had to face it all alone. Her identity isn't something that allows her to live peacefully. During that three years, she saw how he handles all the slander that she receive behind everyone's back. He use every power he can to shut them up. But what he didn't know the women that he love would eventually created another rumors about her making things harder for him to control. And on the night she got sick, when he thought she was asleep, she can feel his presence. He stayed awake at night taking care of her. Making sure her fever won't shoot up. It was this little gesture makes she fall for him bit by bit. At the same time, she manage to help him against his enemies that are endless. She don't know why his enemies are targeting him but with her around, it's easy for her to defeat them without alarming the man himself. Thinking that the enemies even dare to put their spies inside the house, she could not help but worry now that she no longer there. Many times she had to throw out or tripped a maid bringing food to him. In the end, when the maid try to kill him while he was asleep, she too end up killing that maid. The threat doesn't seem to stop there. Even if she's no longer around, she already planted someone to take care of the threat. It's her way of protecting him until he no longer need it. Until she can confirm there's no one would hurt him any longer.
