Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

"Tsk, you have to be honest with me! Is it hard to say everything?" Liana said.

"It's obvious Arlan chose me over you! Didn't you hear before that Arlan would soon divorce you? So don't be barren, he's going to find a replacement and it's me!" said the woman in an elegant but disgusting manner.

"Okay then. I'll leave my husband to you so he doesn't leave or find another replacement. Or don't even look for me after the divorce." Liana answered so calmly.

"What do you mean? Arlan wouldn't look for a woman like you or regret what he did." the woman continued to talk rudely with Liana.

"Go. Get ready for the trial later, we are divorced," said Arlan.

Liana smiled sadly. "If it's your decision then I accept it gracefully. But remember. Your decision will make you regret in the end." Liana said.

"Thank you for 6 years living with me. I will remember it, it's time for me to go." She kept turning her body walking calmly without them noticing her heart was so hurt. Liana was able to hold it in even though her tears didn't fall.

This is her destiny. Liana couldn't regret having loved someone who ended up throwing her away like trash. She had to be as sincere as she said this morning, after all, she was young and had no children. There is no burden after divorcing Arlan. Liana can still find a replacement later and improve herself for the better.

"I'm sure. God will give me happiness in the future," She muttered. Liana's hands were red from holding hands so we were itching to punch and slap Arlan. one more. She wanted to throw a flower vase on the woman's head so that she died on the spot.

However, Liana didn't want her hands to be dirty by those bastards. In the future, Liana would be sentenced to prison, so she entrusted it to God so that they would receive more painful karmic retribution from her.

"Huft," She took a deep breath as she leaned back in the driver's seat which surprised Karina.

"They betrayed you?" Karina asked.

"Arlan threw me like trash in front of that woman," Liana replied.

"So... Arlan could keep you out of his life? Isn't that right?" Karina asked digesting Liana's words.

"True. I'm sure he won't let me go just like that. You can see from his eyes that he still loves me, Arlan is like that. But I can't live with him, rest assured my life will be happy without him." Liana said.

"Now follow what your heart tells you, because your friend wants you to choose the best decision. Do as you please, so far you have always been cornered and bear very painful wounds. Make this a lesson in your life, Lord, my words are very smart." in the end Karina joked, Liana smiled. It's also true what his friend said 'Follow what your heart tells you.

Arriving at the house, more precisely Arlan's house. Liana opened the unlocked door, usually her mother-in-law came to see her. As in-laws, you don't have to interfere in your child's household matters. However, this does not apply to Syafira who always wants to manage everything.

"Where have you been?" The loud voice entered the ears of Liana who had just entered the house.

"Met those bastards," Liana replied.

"What do you mean?" asked Syafira.

"Never mind Ma'am. I want to rest first before getting ready to face your spoiled child coming home." Liana answered so calmly.

"Don't expect him to live with you. You know he already has a suitable life partner. So, be prepared to leave this house!" A devilish smile appeared on Syafira's lips as she looked at Liana.

Liana smiled. "Okay," he replied and then climbed the stairs in his casual accent. As if not provoked by the painful words from the mouth of his mother-in-law.

"That woman was not at all provoked by my words. I would love to see her cry and hurt by my words," muttered Sapphire. She should be proud to have such a good and great daughter-in-law like Liana.

Liana just entered the room to take off her clothes. Suddenly Arlan immediately approached Liana, letting the man bend his knees in front of him. "Liana. I know I was wrong but please don't divorce, I don't want you to go. But, let me remarry." said Arlan. It was different from what he said in front of the cheap woman who had been his lover all along.

"Didn't you say it yourself? You just dumped me, I don't mind Arlan. I'm sick of living with you let alone having a mother-in-law who has the heart to have a daughter-in-law . I always seem to be wrong, and you never stand up for me. It's time for me to go. I'm sorry. I'm not a woman who wants to get married even though I only want children. It's better to divorce me and let me go! Liana clenched her jaw without looking Arlan's eyes, just seeing his face made Liana sick, and didn't hesitate to do rude things.

"Liana. Are you sure you want to part with me? You love me, who will love you like I love you? It's not easy living out there without me!" Arlan snapped.

Liana chuckled innocently then looked at Arlan with hatred. "Life without you would make me very happy! I still have a brother who loves me. Look, if after the divorce I will be the happiest of you! Remember that!?" Liana said.

"Women don't know themselves. Better to introspect first why your husband wants to remarry!" Syafira reproached after slapping Liana's cheek.

"Your son who should be sober. Oh yes, I want to give you this mother-in-law." Liana did a paper check last month and a few years ago.

"That's the results of my uterine examination which was declared fine. But I believe, God has not given us trust. That's why I don't need to tell you. After all, it would be a waste for us. You keep calling me a barren woman!" Liana said.

Syafira and Arlan looked surprised.

"This is just your imagination. Never mind Arlan, just divorce her. I don't want to have a son-in-law like her." said Syafira.

"I don't want to have a mother-in-law like you either. Impure!" She muttered as she took the suitcase under the cupboard.

"I'll bring the clothes I bought with my own money. Don't worry, I brought nothing but mine." Liana said.

Arlan wanted to restrain Liana from leaving this house. He is a loser for being an incompetent man, tarnishing his marriage. "You better stay in this house, I'll leave it to you!" said Arlan to Liana. When Syafira was about to open her mouth, Arlan immediately pushed his mother out and closed the door.

"I don't want this house. Never mind Arlan just do what your mother says, I can live my own life." Liana replied.
