Gloria POV's.

I don't know what to do when Richard first came to the Owen Apartment I'm currently living in.

Actually I do not want to meet the man who is still my husband status. Even if I wanted to meet him maybe during our divorce trial later, not now.

Apparently Richard came with Max, his cousin who was a cop.

This made me unable to dwell because the aide assigned to guard me could not do anything when Richard accused them of kidnapping me in front of Max.

Inevitably, I finally found the man. The man I used to know through a social networking app until it went on to a wedding. Unfortunately, our marriage was just a camouflage to cover up Richard's aberrant behavior.

I don't know, since when he lived in that perversion, all I know is my own fate which turned out to be just a shield to cover the disgrace of a Richard Jensen.

"Would you come here? I told you I didn't want to see you!" I looked at Richard who was staring at me.

"I will continue to persuade you! As long as Owen isn't around, maybe I'll have some luck" the man replied.

I shook my head loudly, looking at Max who also saw the debate between me and Richard.

"Please, this is my right, I don't want to see you. I don't want to talk to you. Please go!"

"But, Gloria...."

"Meet me at our divorce trial!"

I went straight into my room, leaving Richard and Max, who were probably surprised to see my reaction.

Two days later, Richard came back to see me. This time he came alone, but I'm sure he brought Max along to launch his entry into this apartment.

"Gloria, please give me a chance. Am I not worthy of forgiveness?"

The man approached me who was just staring without wanting to approach him on the living room sofa.

He took me to sit on the sofa, I obeyed him even though I was actually caught off guard by his sweet attitude.

Where has he been all this time?

Didn't she have wasted me during our marriage?

Wouldn't he also prefer to follow his delight with his deviant has rat?

Is it because of all I know so now he's being sweet again to knock me out? Or is this all to keep my mouth shut? Oh sure enough, I also do not want to take care of this by opening his disgrace to the crowd. Let him later admit his own abnormality before both parents and the public.

"I know, I've been guilty of a lot all this time." Richard looked at me. "Let me fix everything, our marriage is worth saving."

I laughed at Richard's words. "You're making me sick, our marriage is over when you deliberately drove me to Owen!" my firmness.

"You know, your relationship with Owen could cause new problems."

I looked at Richard in disbelief. "What do you mean say that? You're the one who handed me over to her!" my pedicabs.

"I'll return all those profits as long as you get back to my side, Gloria!"

I hissed in disbelief. He used to make me like an item, he gave me to Owen with a nominal that he agreed to. Now why would he want to ask for a chance?

"I can report your affair. And again, Owen's name as a famous businessman will be tarnished by the scandal you made!"

I don't know why I think Richard's words this time are threatening me.

"You're really disgusting Richard! You caused all this!"

"Yes, but I'm still going to pick you up, right? I never said that Owen deserves to have you forever. So, be it later or today just the same, you'll still come back to me!"

"If I don't want to?"

"Then I'll make sure this scandal is smelled by the media!" he was accompanied by a smile full of cunning.

"Sy base!" hiss with bated emotions.

Without even expecting it, Richard touched my cheek, stroked it gently, and I was amazed until I finally shook off the hand he had placed on my side.

"Gloria, I want to change. You're all I want to help me heal. A little more, at least wait for me until I'm completely free of my dark past."

Hah, I snorted softly. In the past, I really wanted to be treated like this Richard. Desperate for his touch, eager for his attention, even I was determined to make him beg me. Now, when she actually begged like this, I had already lost respect for her. Was wrong?

"I promise, once I'm healed, we'll start all over again. Make sweet memories, if necessary we will take a vacation and honeymoon."

I laugh. "Can you?" my sarcasm.

"of course! I'll prove it to you!" the answer is full of confidence.

Suddenly, I compared him to Owen. Owen never made a promise to me, only one of his promises 'wouldn't hurt me'. Why do I feel so missed now? Though I once desperately wanted to escape the noose of an Owen Zwart. Now, I just want him here to release me from a silly conversation with Richard who in fact is my own husband.

"You want to, right?"

"I don't want to, Richard. I'm in love with Owen. You're late and it's all because of your fault too!"

Richard stood up for a moment when he heard my words. Then he looked at me.

"I give you time to think, in these two days.if you don't come back to me then I'll make sure Owen gets ruined!" richard said threateningly.

Actually, I'm playing with the threat. I don't know how powerful Owen is. I don't know Owen's true identity. All I know is he's a businessman but I don't know Owen's powers. Is Owen really going to be destroyed because of Richard's threat?
