You won't know their worth untill you lose them.

Good day, people of Hive, I hope your day is going smoothly.
I don't know the reason why some men love to cheat on their wives, because it used to baffle me. Let me share with you guys a story I read whose title is "Arranged Marriage.".

---

There was this lady called "Ashley.". She had been in love with "Leonardo" since she was thirteen, while Leonardo was eighteen years old. Anytime Ashley saw Leonardo and his family coming to their house, she always felt happy because Ashley and Leonardo's parents were friends, but Leonardo didn't like Ashley because he always thought that Ashley was a "spoilt brat" whose parents always fulfilled all she wanted. So anytime Ashley tried to play with Leonardo, he always ignored her because, to him, she's a small girl and a "spoilt brat.".

---

So ten years later, Ashley had become a beautiful and curvaceous lady whom men always kill to date, while our Leonardo had become a handsome and ruthless guy, also a womaniser who finds pleasure in different women. Also, he's the number one multi-billionaire and a bachelor, and women love to become his wives due to his handsomeness and money. He also manages his own business and his father's business.

---

Ashley just finished school and studied business management. She also has a brother called "Marco," who was managing her father's business. So when Leonardo's parents saw their son's reputation with different ladies every day, they thought they should marry Ashley to Leonardo because they knew about her love for Leonardo.

---

So Ashley's parents asked her if she would marry Leonardo; she told them yes, and while Leonardo's parents asked him, he told his parents that he wouldn't marry Ashley no matter what. So Leonardo's parents blackmailed him, saying that if he didn't marry Ashley, they would disown him, but due to his love for his parents, he agreed but promised himself that he would make her regret saying yes to marrying him.

So the day of their wedding, when they ask Leonardo, did he accepted Ashley as his wife reluctantly. He said yes. After they finish their wedding, Leonardo takes Ashley to his house and tells her in a cold voice that she should not try to think that he will love her and that he hates her to the core. Ashley was heartbroken because she was not expecting him to say such a thing to her.

---

For six months of their marriage, Leonardo will bring different ladies to their house too, knowing that Ashley is at home, but if their parents come to visit them, they will act as if they were a happy couple, just to deceive their parents.
So one day Ashley was at home because she wasn't feeling well. Leonardo threw a divorce paper at her, saying that he had seen someone he loved and that he didn't want to see Ashley again. She begged him, but he refused to answer her. Later, Ashley signed the paper, but that's how they began their journey.

---

But unknown to Leonardo, he had started to develop feelings for Ashley. But when he realised his mistake—that he was in love with her—he tried to win her back, but Ashley was not giving him a chance again because the chance he got, he misused it. At the latest, Ashley saw a guy who loved her, and their marriage was going through, but Leonardo was heartbroken because of what he made her pass through.

There's this saying that until you lose something you love, you won't know its worth. If Leonardo had quickly known about his love for her, he wouldn't have requested a divorce from her, but it's too late because Ashley is no longer his again.

Thank you for reading my post. Thanks.
