Not the Wife You Want
Chapter 9. Pearls

With a sure move, Ayla entered the house. After the door opened he looked throughout the dark room, making sure there were no strangers or homeowners around the room. After being convinced there was no one, Ayla stepped towards her room.

“Where have you been?!” Alex's heavy voice made Ayla jump in shock and stopped her steps that were going towards her room. Now Alex is sitting in the living room with a gaze that can not be seen by Ayla because the room is so dark.

Ayla turned her body on the source of the sound. “A-Alex!” Ayla said with a hard swallow of her saliva. Alex got up from his seat and walked over to Ayla.

“Where are you!” Jerk Alex who managed to make Ayla jumped. He remained silent not answering. “Is your mouth and ears not working?” Alex shouted back with the distance getting closer to Ayla.

“A-I just went out for a while looking for fresh air!” Ayla replied in a trembling voice as Alex laughed with juwama. He saw Alex advancing slowly toward him. He stepped back to avoid Alex.

“Based on cheap women, surely you've run into a man you can fool like Jonathan! Reason alone looking for fresh air” Alex smiles cynically. “When you must have had fun with some obscure guy out there. Is it not just the father of your son that's not just Joe!” Said Alex who had somehow demeaned the self-esteem of Ayla.

“Enough Lex. I'm not as low as you accuse me, Lex!” Said Ayla trying to calm down, and she kept rewinding her steps as Alex continued to advance towards her.

Although in the dark and not clearly visible figure Alex's face, but it can be ascertained by Ayla if the man must be looking at him sharply with a very scary expression. Even the air in the room felt so cold that it made him shudder.

“Once ******, stay ******. So shut up and don't be holy-spirited and defend yourself!” Alex yelled that made Ayla jump and her body felt trembling.

He kept his steps back until now his body hit the wall, and Alex he smiled full of grin in the dark of the living room. Ayla is now in Alex's confinement. There is no gap for him to avoid Alex's entanglement. I don't know what else Alex would do to her.

“Dare you go out the night without my permission!” Now Alex clutches Ayla's jaw firmly. It makes the woman look up and difficult to talk.

“A-lex,” he said with a choked voice and eyes that look so red if only the room lights on.

“Be quiet, if until you repeat a mistake like this again. Don't expect me to be this good!” Alex throws Ayla's face violently until she staggers.

Ayla smiled bitterly. “Be good?” Ayla said with her lips. “Have you ever treated me so well? Even treating me like a wife you never did, Lex!” Ayla said with a trembling voice. I don't know where he's got the courage to say that.

Alex just smiled cynically. “By marrying someone else's former woman and conceiving a child who is clearly not my child, is it not from my kindness!” Alex shouted with emphasis in every word.

“Treating you like a wife? Tsk... Don't dream, because it will never happen, until whenever I will never touch you even enjoy your bitch body! So don't you ever expect more from this crazy wedding!” Resolutely Alex pointed firmly at Ayla.

“Then why do you want to accept this wedding? And you can turn it down and I can go as far as possible so as not to ruin Lewis's good name. Didn't before agreeing to this marriage, I already told you this!” Ayla said trying to remind them of their wedding plans.

“Are you a fool, if I refuse this marriage. It was the same as taking me into a deep abyss. Just so you know, my parents threatened me by throwing me away just for the sake of women ******* like you!” Shouts Alex.

Ayla was silent because what Alex said was true.

“And for sure if you leave, I don't want my parents to be sad. With you gone, they're gonna get hurt to lose your fucking son!” Alex said with emotion. “Jonathan, you fool. Fuck you. Goddamn bum. Fucking loser!” Alex shouted, which sounded very frustrating. “Argh...” Alex ruffled his hair in frustration.

“Enough, Lex. Stop your curse on Brother Joe, he's quiet there.”

“Do not patronize me, woman *****.” Alex clutched Ayla's jaw again, this time stronger than before.

“Lease, Lex!” Ayla's hand now tries to remove Alex's grip, but it does not work considering Alex's power is stronger than him.

“Sound good of a fucking woman. Why don't you come after Joe's death? And why don't you just drop that damn kid? If that's what you did from the start, I don't have to marry you and get stuck in this crazy marriage!” Alex said with great emphasis, his hand clutching Ayla's jaw firmly. Ayla did not expect what Alex said. Because Alex's cruel speech was more cruel than all of Alex's actions and abusive treatment.

Ayla tried to release Alex's grip with all her strength. Although at first he was so defeated, but finally he managed to escape from Alex's grip. “Plak..!” A slap landed right on Alex's cheek. A masterpiece from an Ayla that imprint perfectly on Alex's cheeks.

“You....!” Alex looks angry and does not accept with a slap Ayla gives. “How dare you slap me!” Alex grabbed Ayla's hair violently.

“This child is a gift from God, and this child has absolutely no sin. And I still have a conscience not to kill him. So I remind you once again, never insult my son. No matter how much I sin and his father, to me he is a pearl that I will keep even if you will never like him!” Boldly Ayla let go of Alex's jubilee in her hair. And he threw Alex's hand violently. Then he went to his room leaving Alex who was now silent on the spot. But before he opened the door he turned to Alex.

“And one more thing, if hurting me is a happiness for you, then be content to hurt me as long as we can still be together. But I won't stay silent if you hurt my pearl!” Ayla insisted before disappearing from behind the door of her room. Stupid, Ayla is really a stupid woman. There is no woman in the world who wants to be hurt for the happiness of the one she loves, especially a husband like Alex.
