The Useless Billionaire Wife

Capitulo Once

Jennie's POV



I woke up with a heavy feeling, my head's hurting really bad and I can feel my eyes puff. For a moment, I wondered why I was not in my bed but when I thought about it, I wanted to cry again.


I've made a mistake yesterday and that mistake destroyed everything between me and my wife, Lisa.


I admit that I was really a jerk for these past three years. I watched how they ridiculed her, insulted her, badmouthed her and everything but I never once made a move to shut them off. That's because I felt like I was really wrong with everything. I regret that I married Lisa instead of Hanbin. I was too blinded by money and fame.



When I think about it, what I felt for Lisa was actually a love at first sight, as cliché as it seems but I may call it like that now that I've realized it.



At first, when I heard her rants when she was talking to that old tree the first time I saw her, I thought that maybe I can get something from her. Maybe I pitied her but that's just it, before. When you think about it, when you were in my shoes before and you like reading romantic books, you will think that maybe she is a hidden heiress or whatever.



I was 25 by then and I was so stupid. But hey, she really doesn't look like a poor kid that was just abandoned by her parents. She has a milky white skin, and when she sat by that river or water or whatever that was, she was poised, prim and proper.


She looked rich. She's too pleasing to my eyes. She looked knowledgeable and educated at such a young age. I thought that maybe when her real parents come back, who knows. But as years went on, I grew tired of her. I thought that maybe she really is what she is. Just some poor orphan and all.

That's why when that matter with Suga came; I tried Lisa for the last time. Maybe if I will be too pressured by my family, she might really come out and help me.

I also know that her other name's Pranpriya when I saw a necklace that she's been keeping but when I dug deeper, I found none. I just found that she was just an orphan. She was transferred to the orphanage when she was 12 and that's it. No more other info.

When she didn't come home that night, I admit that I was pretty scared. I don't know why but maybe I'm just not used to not seeing her at home.


I don't even know why I acted that way when Dad said that he saw Lisa in a car with a woman. I don't know why but I got scared. I wanted to vent out my anger and hurt someone or maybe that woman Lisa's with.


So when I saw her in a hotel and a new motorbike waiting for hair, I was in a rage. I wanted to know who is she with or who bought her that new bike.


I don't even know what got in me when I told her sweet nothings. I was too caught up with my feelings and I am too confused but I will keep on shrugging it off as usual.



It's not that I'm too lazy to explain it I just don't know what I am feeling right now. There are times when I am harsh to her, sometimes I feel like hugging her or whatever. I'm a weirdo, I guess?


But no, I just don't know what I am feeling.


After those days, she persuaded me to try going to the Bruschweiler Tower again. She told me that it's gonna be fine and she was right.

Everything went great.


And that's when I thought that it was Lisa who helped me.


She has some deep connections here in this company.

Or so I thought.




Two weeks have passed and I met Hanbin. The man that I was supposed to marry.


He told me that I should thank him for it was him who helped me out to get that partnership with the Bruschweiler's.



Then he told me that he has some deep relationship with that company so he told that company beforehand that when I go there they will accept any proposal that I'll present. And he also said that it could've been easier if I just called him at once.


At first, I didn't want to believe as it was really Lisa who pushed me to go for it and if it was with his help, she mustn't have told me to go there at that exact same date.


But then when I thought about it, when I went there, I've been given a special treatment.


It seemed like they've been waiting for me to go there and it all happened quite fast that I wasn't even able to comprehend anything.


So I concluded that it was pure coincidence with Lisa so I went back to my previous attitude towards her.

I figured that maybe she was really just an orphan.







But after what happened yesterday, I saw the new Lisa. Or maybe I just don't know her?

"Is that so? Okay, I will send the divorce papers tomorrow. I want you to sign it. The moment you get it, sign it right away. Thank you for letting me stay at your home for the past three years. Then,"

Damn, those words again. She said it calmly but I can feel her seriousness in it. Well I only realized it when I saw her clothes nowhere in our closet.


It's like there were no Lisa who lived in this house for 3 years. I'm so scared.


What if she will really divorce me? What will happen to me?


What if she unloved me?

What if she will find someone even better than me?


I don't know what I'll do when those what ifs happen.



I know. I'm such a fool and a jerk. I can't protect and treasure her but I can't let her go.



I can't. I really can't.


I want my wife back.


I want her home.


I want her in my house again.


I want her to keep cooking for me.


I want her to wash my clothes for me.


I want her.


I need her.




I still don't know why I'm like this but I'm certain that I will do any means just to bring her back home.





KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK





Just when I was about to burst out in tears again, I heard knocks on our door.


I wasted no time and stood up, hoping that it was Lisa. I didn't even bother to fix myself, I was just too eager to see my wife.




As I opened the door, I saw my mother with a big smile on her face.



"Mom, what are you doing here this early? What is it?" I told her scratching my brows.


She hissed and handed me an envelope,

"Look, this is good news. You should look at it, hurry!"



It seems that this envelope has some good shit in it so I opened it.




But when I opened it, I lost all my strength that's left and just wanted to crumble down but I tried not to.





"DIVORCE DECREE"





"You see that? Finally, we can soar higher this time without that trash with us. I'm glad that you persuaded her about this divorce thingy. You can marry a rich young man and help us up, Jennie. Finally."




When my mother said that, I wanted to shut her up.



I am so speechless. I want to find Lisa and tell her that I am never gonna sign this.




Lisa, I need to see Lisa.
