Chereads / The Tyrant Gentle Husband / Chapter 3 - Who was this girl in the mirror?

Chapter 3 - Who was this girl in the mirror?

It was still in the early stage of a possible divorce. I never got a boyfriend but suddenly, I have a husband and not long after enjoying my married life, my lovely husband would divorce this useless me. I could not even say that I was enjoying it because he wasn't even conscious.

I walked towards the mirror. This girl named Elena was a goddess. She has beautiful eyes. Her hair is long, smooth, and a little curly but it suits her cute face. She looked like a barbie doll.

Her skin is white, and her waist is so slim. She has smooth and tender skin. She is the type that guys like the most. If I am a guy, I would like this type of girl.

But of course, the appearance was not enough to attract someone you love. The most important component of love is feelings. When your feelings are too deep for someone, you cannot see anyone else in your eyes. Sometimes, it is not wrong to love someone else more than yourself, but it is like a double-edged sword, you will get hurt when your love isn't reciprocated.

This was the case for Luke and Elena because of their deep love for the other, they could not be together since their feelings were not connected. Elena was born as a princess but she always hoped to be born in an ordinary family. 

Her family raised her like a princess. But she always felt that she lived like a princess in a cage. She never felt that they loved her at all. 

Two of her big brothers only cared to fight with each other to inherit their family business. Her father rarely came home and her mother was an international celebrity who barely came back. 

She lived alone in that big house, both of her brothers barely home too due to their businesses. It was only her and her little younger twin brothers. 

She took on their parent's role and raised them. 

She gave them all of her love.

As for her, the twins are her only family. Even though the twins were raised in a family that seems incomplete, with only their sister taking care of them, they understood and loved their beautiful big sister. Both of them built their own company. They were close to each other and they never fought or quarreled at all. 

They promised to create a successful company of their own to protect their only family, their big sister. 

They will free her from the chain called fake family.

The only happy thing that the original Elena Marlen had were her only twin brothers. Even in the story, the author never explained what happened after the death of Elena, Elena's twin brothers became powerful and were cold-blooded emperors in the business circle. 

They could compete fairly with Luke. They realized how incompetent their parents were.

They are family but barely met each other so they were like strangers more than family. 

The original Elena Marlen was used to giving love. But she never got the love she needed from her family, except from her beloved younger twin brothers whom she raised carefully. 

She is always gentle. The twin built an orphanage for her. They knew how much she loved children and how sad she was when she looked at abandoned children on the street.

But her gentleness was not enough to attract Luke's attention. I felt sad for Elena. It was why I didn't really like love that much.

I felt like an expert in love, but it was only in theory though. Ah, maybe I need to call the twins later. Right now, I will go to the hospital and do my duty as a faithful wife. 

Even though the husband didn't love Elena, I still need to be a kind and gentle Elena like the original Elena. It was not because I was forced to be, but because I was a kind person. 

I never meant to praise myself. But maybe I was just too ugly in the previous world that I never had any boyfriend.
