Let Me Love Your Wife (Not an Ex)
Painful Facts

Reyvan flinched, even without realizing his drinking glass fell to the floor. However, he did not care, instead immediately moved and looked up at the stage.

"I just misheard you, right?" inner Reyvan with a hunting breath.

However, that opinion was broken when the figure of a beautiful and charming woman went up on stage. In a light silver dress and high hells of matching colors, she stepped gracefully and welcomed Maverick's hand. A smile spread on her soft lips, as if there were no burdens she had kept.

"Elle." Reyvan clenched tightly, to the point that the tip of his nail injured his hand. However, he remained unmoved, only his gaze getting sharper on the woman ahead.

"Honey, please greet them before we resume the show!" maverick.

Stupidly, Reyvan hoped the woman refused and ran into his arms. A wishful thinking that blurs with past memories. Because, Elle kindly greeted the invited guests, also kindly introduced himself as the future wife of Maverick Shane.

"I always imagined, someday I would wear a beautiful dress and crown. Then, we exchanged rings in front of many people. We show the world that we have each other. Sure, it feels so happy."

Reyvan grew furious when he remembered Elle's words in the past. Elle dreamed of it with her, but it is now manifested with others. Wh why? What harm?

"Rey, how could Elle be engaged to her?" ask Ricko who knows when to stand next to Reyvan.

"I'm home!" Reyvan steps away regardless of Ricko's call. He also ignored the cries of Leon and Azriel.

With quick steps, Reyvan walked towards the car. He wanted to get away from that place before emotions led him up the stage and beat up Maverick.

Reyvan drives his car at high speed. He was indifferent even though the other riders were drunk when he crossed paths with him. His only desire is one, which is to arrive home immediately.

Reyvan is not a weak man who would act stupid just out of love. Liquor, one night stands, let alone drugs, never existed in Reyvan's dictionary. Only cigarettes became his impingement. No exception tonight, that's what will accompany.

"It turns out this, the meaning of the thank you that Maverick said earlier. You old widower!" reyvan is full of emotion.

She is convinced that Maverick knows about his relationship with Elle, because it is impossible for a man like her to not check his female background.

________________

Two days have passed since Maverick announced his engagement to Elle. However, the news is still a hot topic to this day. Not only newspapers and social media, television channels also broadcast it. Understandably, Maverick's position is very high.

In these two days, Reyvan hardly ever touched his phone. Hundreds of incoming chats were left alone, not even a phone call from Ricko and Leon was accepted. Reyvan preoccupies himself with work. He wanted to forget about Elle and all the memories of her.

However, either luck or even bad luck. On returning home from work, fate brings him to Elle. At that time, Reyvan stopped for a while in the shopping center, about to buy parfumes and lotions. Unexpectedly, he passed by a woman who introduced him to the meaning of love and hurt.

"Gelle!" call Reyvan. Although his logic screamed away, but he approached and greeted Elle. Apparently, this time he was conquered by feelings.

"Rey," muttered Elle, very slow and barely audible.

Elle stepped back, but Reyvan continued forward and slashed the distance with her. Until finally, Elle did not wince because her back was already docked on the wall. Inevitably, he stayed there and faced Reyvan who was already staring intently.

"Is this your real reason, Elle? You left me for that old widower?" asked Reyvan without further ado.

"You already know the truth, so yeah, I don't have to dodge anymore." Elle smiled cynically. "Yes, I love Maverick. He's an adult, not an old man. We're only 20 years away and it's not too far away" he said.

"Twenty years has made him worthy of being your father. Why should he be the one you choose?"

"Rich? What treasure made you turn, Elle?" search Reyvan.

"Realistically, no woman expects a hard life. So do I" replied Elle without hesitation.

"I'm rich enough, it won't make you hard let alone starve. You don't have to sacrifice yourself for an old man, while on the other hand there is me, a young man who is ready to meet your needs." Reyvan answered quickly. "I love you, Elle. I'll give you whatever you want. Please don't go" he said softly.

"If all I ask for is a private plane and a house on a cruise ship that can take me around the world, can you?" challenge Elle.

"Elle__"

"No, right? So don't think of yourself as tall, Rey. Compared to Maverick, you're nothing" Elle said.

"Why have you changed? Since when did you put treasure together?"

"Since I realized that my lover is only a poor man." Elle. "Go away, I'll go! Between us there is nothing. Don't bother me anymore!" continued.

Elle shakes Reyvan's shoulder, then leaves. Five steps later, Elle shed tears. However, he did not turn around, instead rushing away while wiping his own tears.

After Elle, Reyvan was glued to his place, still not expecting the beloved loved one to do that.

As Reyvan was still staring at Elle who had just disappeared behind the shelf, someone came and patted her on the shoulder.

"You can't avoid it anymore" Ricko said.

Reyvan turned his head for a while and then looked down.

"Sorry, I just accidentally saw you with Elle. I know you guys are talking seriously, so I'm not spying, just .. nguping aja." Ricko smiled broadly.

"Fuck you," said Reyvan.

"The reason you're diem mulu, I'm going to be curious" said Ricko.

Reyvan snorted in annoyance. Then, he stepped up and took the origin of the lotion that had not been selected.

"What's your next plan? You don't believe it, do you, Elle says? You know, right, if she's hiding something?" Ricko rained down on Reyvan with a lot of questions.

Reyvan exhaled a rough breath, then stopped and turned towards Ricko.

"Even if he's hiding something, I don't care. He chose to lie, meaning not to believe my protection anymore. Rudely, he thought I was weak and unreliable in his troubles" Reyvan explained.

"Same___"

"The bottom line is, I don't care if he's honest or not. Once he chooses this decision, okay fine we break up. I gave him a chance to talk, but the reason remains disappointing. So, yes, I don't hope anymore" Reyvan said.

I don't know what made him close his heart, so he didn't want to find the truth about his lover. Maybe excessive jealousy or maybe Elle's words are too spicy. Whatever the reason, Reyvan's heart was frozen.

Seriate...
