Repentance Revenge
Chapter 44
"I think with time, Devan will open his heart and be able to love me as much as I love him."
"But it turns out I was wrong," Irene commented a bitter smile. All this time his heart was deeply broken yet trying to look fine in front of everyone.
"For almost 2 years of marriage with me, in fact Devan still loves women in his past." Irene lowered her face. Clear circles back wet the cheeks. The pain in his heart grew more and more piercing. No wife would be okay knowing that her husband still loves another woman.
Nisa is stunned, hearing the fact that Devan still loves her makes her heart flutter. Now Nisa just believes that all Devan's speech at that time was true. He could not stop loving her even though she was married.
Nisa thinks Devan and Irene's life is fine because they will soon be gifted a child. He thinks Devan's saying he still loves her is bullshit to make her pity.
Apparently Nisa did not misinterpret the look Devan eyes that look unhappy.
"Anisa, Devan used to say Anisa's name when she was asleep."
"Not just once or twice, but it's been countless until now." Irene said with tears flowing more and more.
Nisa was speechless, her body seemed to tremble, she hid her hands behind her back from trembling. Her breathing was tight to hear Irene's words. Her heart was so sick to accept the fact that destiny was not on her and Devan's side even though they loved each other.
In fact, not only is he alone tormented by his feelings of love, but Devan also feels the same way.
Living with someone he doesn't love is hard to live with.
"At first I thought you were Anisa loved by Deva. But it turns out you didn't know each other before." Irene.
During her first dinner meeting with Nisa, Irene was suspicious when she heard that Andreas' future wife had the same name as the woman Devan loved.
Seeing Nisa and Devan's usual reaction, Irene immediately dismissed the suspicion.
"Either till when will Devan be stuck with his past feelings and not see my whereabouts by his side."
"Maybe if I leave one day, he'll realize that I love him so much." Irene carved out a happy smile that was seen forced on.
"Do you still think my marriage to Devan is happy.?" Ask Irene.
He breathed heavily and moved from his seat.
"You're lucky to be married to Andrew. At least behind Andreas' cold attitude and always opposing his Papa, he gives you love and tenderness."
"I know Andreas very well, he just looks scary from the outside, but actually his heart is sincere." Irene turned around, smiling widely at Nisa because she felt happy with the happiness of her sister-in-law.
"It seems you know Andreas better than I do." Nisa said calmly. He moved away from his seat, standing opposite Irene.
Irene smiled at Nisa's words, let alone the look on Nisa's face that held back jealousy.
"You don't get me wrong, we used to be very close. Especially after knowing our parents know each other."
"Andreas is the type of person who easily mingles open friendships with anyone. Including me."
"While Devan is very difficult to approach, it's more like not being close friends with women."
"The only way I can get close to him is to be good friends with Andreas. Because the two of them used to be together wherever they went." Irene gave a smile, she remembered those times. Because of his great love for Devan, he always does anything to get close to him.
...****...
Nisa had just walked out of the room after Irene had first left from there.
Although he can't do anything to get his love back because there is Irene and their future child.
Nisa's steps came to a halt as Devan suddenly appeared before her. The man stared deeply, his eyes filled with love still lodged in his heart. Never faded despite having left Nisa for 2 years.
Nisa's lips twitched, she held back the tears of seeing Devan looking at her lovingly. The look she had longed for.
Not wanting to linger to see Devan, Nisa hurried to step her legs to leave.
"Andreas isn't as good as you think, he already knows that you and I have been in a relationship." Devan said along with holding Nisa's hand.
Nisa's eyes were perfectly rounded. He looks shocked to hear Devan's words, but a little incredulous about it.
If indeed Andreas knows about his past with Devan, why Andreas never asked anything and seemed to know nothing.
"No need to accuse Andreas, just accept that we are not meant to be together."
"Irene and your child-to-be need love from you." Nisa slowly releases Devan's hand, then passes from there.
"He forced me, knowing I couldn't love him." Sahut Devan's.
Nisa only stopped her steps for a moment, but then went back and left Devan.
Meanwhile, someone was standing not far from them. He saw and heard clearly what Devan and Nisa were talking about.
...****...
"Why are you.?" Tegur Andreas. He gently touched Nisa's hand that was on top of her lap. The woman has since been seen daydreaming since the car driven by Andreas left the magnificent palace owned by Mr. Chandra.
Not only that, Andreas also felt a change in Nisa after doing yoga with Irene and Lady Zoya.
Nisa is more silent and daydreaming.
Nisa turned her head, she only commented a thin smile while shaking her head. As if to tell Andreas that he's okay.
Andreas doesn't believe it. He was not sure if Nisa was okay with the changes. More silence and daydreaming. It was as if something big was stirring up his mind.
"Did Irene and Mama say bad things to you.?" Ask Andreas. She is worried that Irene or Lady Zoya is saying something that finally disturbs Nisa's mind.
Because after breakfast together, Nisa suddenly asked to go home.
Nisa turned her head, shaking her head while smiling faintly.
"They didn't say anything, I just didn't feel well." Nisa Sahut.
He stared fixedly at Andreas, trying to find the truth from Devan's words.
But Nisa did not see anything suspicious from the look in Andreas' eyes.
"You sick.? Do I need to see a doctor.?" Andreas asked worriedly. He put the back of his hand on Nisa's forehead to ensure her temperature.
"I don't have Andreas' fever, just don't feel well. After a break it might be better." Answer Nisa.
