When Max left the study room, I tried to think about what he meant.
“She can get any man she wants? Does she want Max? Does she like him? Why? What is in him that makes her want him?”
So many questions flowed through my mind. I wanted to ignore them, but they kept roaming in my head.
My eyes moved to the desk where I put Natalia’s diary.
Suddenly, I became very curious to see her handwriting and to know what she wrote inside it.
I stood up, went to the desk, and took a seat in my chair behind the desk.
I grabbed the diary and opened it.
My brows lifted when the first page appeared in my eyes.
It was adorned with a photograph from our wedding. There was a small note written underneath it.
“My married life with the person I love the most.”
My fingers curled as I read the line again and again. It was just the day we married; how could she write that she had loved me the most?
I turned the page and started to read.
There were many details about me. She thought of me as her superhero because I saved her from that old man that night.
I read on about her attempts to fit in with the culture of my family.
Her handwriting was beautiful, and the way she wrote was a clear explanation of her feelings. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
When I read about her inner thoughts after I married her, a smile. appeared on my lips.
She was very excited and nervous about how she would spend the rest of her life with me.
A frown formed on my face when I read something bitter.
“Today, Mom and Dad arranged a yacht for me and Adrian. Since he refused to go on a honeymoon with me, they planned a special night
for us.
I am very excited because Adrian has agreed with his parents.
I am wearing a red backless dress. It’s not like I wanted to seduce him, but I wanted to look beautiful for him. I want this night to be memorable for us.”
It was like she wrote that before going outside. Because after a page, she wrote something else.
There were a few drops of tears that were dried on the page, which caught my attention.
“Adrian was not picking up my calls, so I went to the port alone. I thought he would be there.
But when I reached the port, I only found Dad’s men, who helped me get into the yacht. They said Adrian would come soon.
The yacht was looking very beautiful, decorated with flowers and candles. Under the darkness of the night, it was illuminated on the river.
I waited for him for a long time. I told myself he would come, but he never did.
When I saw the yacht begin to move, I was scared and rushed to the captain. I asked him why he started it because my husband had not

I had to spend the whole night all alone on the yacht, staring at the lonely river.
don’t know why he hates me so much. Why can’t he see how much I love him? I am his newlywed bride. What’s more important to him than me? Or he doesn’t care about me at all?”
I moved my eyes from the dairy. My eyes turned dim as I recalled that night. I indeed ignored her and spent my night at the bar,
drinking.
A bitter taste of regret filled my heart as I realized how lonely she must have felt that night.
