Born As Kidney Donor For My Sister

Book 2 I Sacrificed Myself to Save Him, But He Despised I’m Deaf

On our wedding anniversary, I arrived early at the restaurant Elijah had made reservations for, my heart full of joy.

As I pushed open the door to the private room just a crack, I heard Elijah’s nonchalant voice:

“How could I ever like a deaf person?”

“I had no choice but to marry her!”

“I have no love for her, only pity and guilt.”

I didn’t know who he was speaking to.

His tone even carried a hint of disdain and disgust, mixed with mockery…

The words left me feeling bewildered.

My heart shattered piece by piece, and soon tears welled up in my eyes.

After five years of marriage, he had cared for me meticulously and indulged me in every

way.

I quickly stepped back, forcing myself to hold back my tears.

Then, I composed myself and forced a smile.

When I opened the door, I was met with

Elijah’s gentle, loving gaze, full of affection and a smile just for me.

“Sweetheart, you’re here! I was just about to call you!”

But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t convince myself that what I had overheard was just a figment of my imagination.

Seeing my disheartened expression, Elijah’s smile faded, and he furrowed his brow with

concern.

“Ashie, why aren’t you happy? What’s wrong?”

Looking at his face, so delicate and sincere, it was like seeing a different person from the one who had spoken so disdainfully earlier.

My heart ached with the thought.

I struggled to find the words, unsure of what to say to him.

Elijah handed me a gift box, gently saying, “Open it and see.”

Inside the box laid a stunning diamond necklace named “Eternal Love.”

This necklace, designed by a renowned designer, represents a husband’s sincere love for his wife. It was rare and had a long waiting period.

I remembered how, early last year, after the advertisement for this necklace was released, I had shown it to Elijah, saying:

“Honey, do you think this necklace is beautiful?”

Elijah examined it carefully and nodded, “Yes, it’s beautiful!”

“Let me put this necklace on for you!” Elijah’s voice brought me back to reality.

I waited silently for him to put it on me, but there was no joy in my heart.

It turned out that marrying me was never about love for him.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Only pity and guilt…

All because…

My dearness was partly is rail.
