Love After Regret
Strongwoman

Happy Reading 🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡

Leona came out of her room fully clothed. As usual her daily activities are working in a boutique and receiving orders every day.

Leona's headed for the kitchen. This morning he will prepare a special breakfast for his beloved husband. Or he intends to make provisions for Pedro, so that the man will have lunch later.

Leona seems busy struggling with kitchen tools, she really likes to cook. Cook her normally, but she cooks with love.

"For Madam" said Bik Lian.

"For Bik" replied Leona.

"You're cooking for Master, Madam?" bik Lian said with a warm smile.

Bik Lian actually pity Leona but the woman is like her too eager to make her husband fall in love until she forgets the truth that Pedro will not love her.

Leona cooks Pedro's favorite seafood fried rice, the man loves fried rice with squid pieces, especially added with sausage pieces and some meatballs plus beef-eye sandwiches, pedro must have liked it.

Leona served her food on the table. Her smile is sweet and sweet. It was as if he was doing fine, but that was how he closed the wound that was now hitting his chest.

Pedro walked towards the dining table with a briefcase and fixed his slightly shifted tie. He was neat and handsome wearing an expensive suit stellan attached to his body.

Pedro's steps stopped when he saw Leona who was busy arranging food on the table. The man breathed a sigh of relief because Leona was no longer as sick as yesterday, to be honest she was worried. Not worried because of what?

"For Pedro," said Leona who had put on a smile as sweet as possible.

Pedro simply replied with a nod and his cold gaze. Leona pulled the chair and let Pedro sit down. But Pedro instead pulled up another chair and sat down without intending to sit in the chair that Leona pulled for him.

Leona smiled, it's okay. Love takes effort, right? Rejected is common. Just do not give up, just believe one day Pedro's love will be anchored to him. He will melt the man's heart and they will live happily ever after, before Leona leaves.

"Pedro, here I've cooked your favorite food." Leona took the food for her husband.

At first Pedro wanted to refuse but when he saw Leona's gaze he did not have the heart. Pedro nodded and received the plate that Leona had thrust at him.

Seeing Pedro nodding makes Leona's heart happy not to play, but it's just pity and heartlessness is not because Pedro is eating Leona's cooking.

"Eat!" yells.

Pedro admitted that Leona does have expertise in cooking. Although it could be said that this was the first time Pedro wanted to eat Leona's cooking after so many years, I don't know that he was always disgusted by this woman.

"How's Pedro, how good isn't it?" leona exclaimed with a smile looking at her husband. "I added some chicken in it, you like it, right?" said again.

Pedro looked silent for a moment and looked at the food on his plate. Why is his feeling guilty seeing a sweet smile on his wife's face.

"I'll go first." The man put down his spoon and stood up.

"Lho, Pedro, but you just ate a few spoons. Why did it stop?" leona asked, a little disappointed. She got up early to prepare breakfast for her husband. But Pedro's response was far from his expectations.

"I'm full" said the man, turning his back on Leona.

Pedro looked at the rice bushel and then saw Leona's smiling face.

"no need. I had lunch with Tasya" said Pedro coldly.

Deg

Leona's heart was slashed when Pedro called Tasya's name. Yes, that woman, is Pedro's lover. Lover who had accompanied her almost eight years before they even got married. And now, when he was married, Pedro still loves his lover without thinking about Leona's feelings.

"I'm sorry," said the

Pedro sauntered away without thinking about the wife's sad face. Pedro doesn't care. Leona was his wife, but it was only a wife on paper. In fact, he never loved that woman. Instead, he hated Leona because, Leona was the one who made him unable to marry Tasya. Had Leona refused their match, Pedro and Tasya would have lived happily ever after.

'Pedro, I'm not giving up. But if one day I'm tired, I'm sorry I can't force myself. But really Pedro, I want to be loved by you. But why are you telling me to leave? I'll leave when the time comes. And for now let me fight for your heart, Leona said in her heart.

The woman smiled bitterly. It was hard for her to prepare provisions for her husband but the man refused and said he would have lunch with the lover.

"Yes, I give it to Brother Dika." Leona wiped her tears.

"Madam," call Bik Lian a long sigh. "Are you okay?" ask her.

Bik Lian was the maid who had accompanied Leona for many years. He witnesses how broken the relationship between husband and wife. Since marriage until now Pedro's attitude has not changed at all.

"What are my eyes red?" Leona flicked her hand trying to hold the clear melt.

"Madam, if you're tired of giving up" said Bik Lian

Leona shook her head. "No Bik. He's my husband. I'm not giving up. I will fight as I can" Leona said, remaining confident in her feelings for Pedro.

Bik Lian could no longer comment. She had told Leona many times that love cannot be forced. However, Leona still insists on fighting for feelings that do not want her.

For Leona he had no problem with Pedro's indifferent attitude towards him. Naturally, because the man did not love him yet. Even Leona did not mind when she found out that her husband still had a relationship with the lover. To be angry for free, there will be no results. Let it all flow like water.

"Yes Bik, I left first yaaa," he said as he challenged the rice and hooked the bag hunggil on his boat.

"Yes Madam be careful." Bik Lian waved her hand at Leona.

The middle-aged woman looked at Leona's back that was moving away from her. Poor, sometimes people are willing to be hurt for the love they want to have, even though in fact the love does not really want to side with him.

"Mom," said Dara.

Dara is the son of Bik Lian, who was educated by Leona. Leona already considers Dara as her own sister.

"Pity Madam Yes, Ma'am," said Dara. Dara, for her, Leona was the light that brought her to light.

Dara won't be able to repay her employer's kindness. Leona is too good to be hurt, poor woman as good as it should be heartbroken because of the wrong love.
