Ten Years Bound by Love, Freed by Her BetrayalChapter 1

On the tenth time, I found Eulalie Vargas in bed with another person; her response was not as strong as before.

She casually checked her watch and softly placed a jacket over her new lover in her arms.

“Wasn’t the prenatal checkup scheduled this afternoon? Why did you return so soon?”

When I gave no reply, she pressed a kiss to the other man’s face and calmly stepped between us.

“The child is still small. If there is any anger, put it on me.”

She thought I would act like before, out of control, causing a huge scene.

But what she did not realize was that the ten-year agreement from the past was about to end.

I would be free to leave her very soon.

On the marriage photo beside the bed, there were now two clear palm marks.

One on the left, one on the right, covering both my face and Eulalie’s.

It was simple to picture the position they had just shared.

I drew a slow breath and turned to face Eulalie.

“Didn’t we promise not to bring anyone home?”

“Do you even remember what date today is?”

Eulalie smiled without care.

She easily lit a cigarette and blew the smoke toward my face.

“I drank too much. How would I remember any of that?”
