The Handsome CEOs Second Wife

“Choose wisely Leo. Are you going to save your love or your unwanted second wife?”

Aaron, Asked him with a wicked smile on his face holding the gun against her head. The sound of the trigger being pulled made her heartbeat miss the rhythm. But all the time her eyes were fixed on her husband who was standing before her with the blank expression he always carries.

“I want to save my love"

Lonely tears rolled from her eyes upon hearing his reply which somewhere she already knew. She stared at him with dead eyes, so this was the end. End of her pathetic life. As decided, her life was going to end as his unwanted second wife.

Soon the gunshot made her get all blurry. Her eyes are slowly falling asleep, and all the events from the past are slowly playing in her head.

"Sign the papers Alina, Let's end this forever"

Alina stared at her Husband with tears in her eyes, she couldn't believe what she just heard. Is this for real? Is he asking for a divorce on their Anniversary day? But why? Why did he make such a decision,

"Why Leo? I thought everything getting okay between us, we even,"

Her words were cut off by his hand. He stopped her abruptly and looked at her with some unknown inner emotions. She tried to read his pale emerald eyes, which she had been trying to do for the past three years, where she always hoped to see at least a bit of emotion for her. But as always it's blank and dead. Tears in her eyes are not ready to stop. Somewhere fear crept into her heart to see the end of this. He glared at her blankly and didn't even flinch seeing tears in her eyes.

"I think we have wasted enough time talking about this Alina. If I ever made you hope for something new between us, I'm very sorry, because I'm still the same Leo who loves his wife and the only love of his life. She may not be here with me right now, but til my last breath, my heart will only cherish her name. Nobody can take her place in my life. I hope you understand"

The last piece of her heart breaks into a million pieces. She stared at him with unbearable pain in her heart. This is not the first time he has rejected her like this, this is what she heard for the first time when their parents fixed their marriage. This is exactly what she heard on their honeymoon trip. He never failed to declare his love for his wife. At the same time, he wouldn't miss a chance to remind her that there was no way she was going to replace her in his life. Sadly she never wanted to take her place in his life. All she wanted was to be just another character in his life. not as a happily married wife but, at least as a companion in his life.
