The young and rich Vanessa Rio Perez glimmered with happiness as she dared to hope about starting her happily ever after once she marries her dream man, Allen Travis Fajardo.

But she was wrong.

Her arranged marriage with the airline heir didn’t work out. She woke up everyday to a marriage where abyss and emptiness held the reins. He grew more and more distant as every month passed by.

That provoked her to commit one mistake – a mistake that welled his heart up with hate and shattered their marriage even more.

Oh my god, where to start.

I jumped in blindly, and god, this thing is a f*cking disaster--and that's putting it mildly.

But then, I saw the review section of this novel, which is full of comments praising it to high heaven--one even said that this story is empowering! So I thought I was too quick to pull the gun (Even thought I'm at chapter 10 already, which is like, 1/4 of the whole goddamn story) --hence, I try to read it again, and I even tried the raw because I don't... more>> want to be too quick to judge--

--boy, what a huge mistake.

I thought author who believe and wrote story where you have to endure, endure, and endure abuse and toxic behavior in a relationship has gone extinct already--it's 2019! This story proves me wrong. No matter from what kind of perspective I'm trying to read this story, different light and whatsoever, the only message I caught from the story is "if your husband is a wifebeater, endure! Stay strong! Later in the future, your relationship will conveniently fix itself!"

f*ck no.

There's nothing """strong""' about enduring abuse. There's nothing """empowering""" about unable to stand up against something that should've never be done to you or any human ever. There's nothing """nurturing""" about being silent in an abusive relationship just for the sake for it to go on. It's just plain DOORMAT. However, the author seems to prefer the word 'martyr'--fine, if that's what you prefer, author. Means the same thing to me.

Now, let's get on to my biggest problem with this story:

Spoiler

--the author is glorifying abuse.

Abuse means love--especially when your husband is a walking social misfit with rapist, abusive, control freak, anger management issue--and the list goes on!

Every time the husband literally beat the sh*t out of his wife (to quote herself 'he almost killed me!'), which happened about 5 times from chapter 1-10 (good grief...), the next chapter would always be in his perspective/ 3rd narrative to explain (read: justify) why he did it.

And boy, you'll love his reason for beating his wife. Every time he loses control and even managed to send her to the hospital one time, he blame "extreme anger". That he's the actual victim. That his wife is the one who actually hurts him. Sounds similar?

Yes, this predator rapist as*hole is playing the victim card, as any as*hole in a bad writing would do. And to make it even more fantastic, is the side characters and even the supposedly bad guy are the sensible one!

Every time he beats her, he would later clarifies in his narration that he did it out of love. (While funnily, he also adds that his ego is hurt and he can't take that a mere commoner dares to cheat on his golden dick)

No, you rapist piece of shit. And you too, f*ckface of an author.

Abuse isn't, ain't, never is, will never ever be equal to love.

Abuse is abuse. r*pe is r*pe.

The author also tries to shed him in different light, explaining that his abusive behavior is due to the MC herself cheating on him that one time. But at the same time, she also wrote so that this baby trapped in an adult body """revenge""" on the wife. My god, his ego can't take it unless he one up the b*tch, aka f*cking with another woman in broad daylight and rub it on femmc's face.

Now lemme bring to you the context: It's a f*cking arranged, loveless marriage. The rapist prick is still hung up with his ex, he treated femMC like sh*t all the time (in his pov, he justifies again that he's """"working on""""" his love for her, as*hole what have you been smoking). Hence, the femMC seeks love from her friend, who's also a f*ckboy--and one thing leads to another.

The hubby caught them cheating on him, and instead of talking it out like a proper adult, he almost send her straight to heaven. To me, this is a red flag and why she should just ditch the wifebeater, after all, it's a loveless f*cking marriage with a psychopath rich son of a faggot who has never been denied anything in his life, but she's too doormat to do so. Yes, she's the type to blame herself for everything that's happening to herself.

ANDDDD THE MOST FRUSTATING SHIT??!?!?!?!?

THEY LOVE EACH OTHER.

THEY LOVE EACH OTHER.

THEYLOVEEACHOTHER.

EACH f*ckING CHAPTER, THE AUTHOR HAMMERS IT ON MY FACE WHILE r*pe SCENES AND TOXIC MANIPULATIVE BEHAVIOUR ENSUES. SHES GLORIFYING IT. SHE'S TRYING TO MAKE US SEE THAT THIS IS AN ACTUAL RELATIONSHIP BUILD ON f*ckING LOVE WHEN THE f*ckING as*hole OF AN MC GOES STRAIGHT TO PUNCHING AND SLAMMING HIS WIFE ON THE WALL E.A.C.H MISUNDERSTANDING HE'S HAVING.

OH, AND BTW, TO SHOW THAT HE GREATLY LOVES HER, EVERY DAMN TIME AFTER THEY FIGHT HE WOULD COMMAND HER TO f*ck WITH HIM. "I CANT RESIST UR BODY BAE". AND THE DOORMAT WHO HAS NO PERSONALITY OTHER THAN BEING A PUNCHING BAG NODS ALONG. AFTER THE "GREAT s*x" WITH THE "BEAST", EVERYTHING IS FORGIVEN AND THEY ARE IN LOVE AGAIN.

HOW IS THIS HEALTHY.

HOW IS THIS ROMANCE.

HOW DOES THIS EVEN BECOME A BOOK.

LOVE ISN'T THE SAME AS LUST EITHER. BUT IT SEEMS LIKE ONLY A SMALL MINORITY UNDERSTAND THIS CONCEPT.

AND HERE I THOUGHT THE EMPOWERING PART WAS WHEN SHE DECIDED TO f*ckING DIVORCE HIM.

BUT NAH.

HE HUGS HER FOR LIKE, 3 HOURS, IDK, AND THE s*upid f*ckING DOORMAT'S BRAIN IMMEDIATELY SWEEPS EVERYTHING--THE FACT THAT HE HAS BEEN ABUSING HER UNTIL SHE'S HALF DEATH, THAT SHE'S TIRED AND SHE WANTED TO DIVORCE--UNDER THE RUG. YES, PUN INTENDED.

"I REMEMBER I LOVE HIM AGAIN."

f*ck YO-2981HDAHIQHEEWUQQHDUHQUDHWQJKDQHDJAHJSAHDADA

EMPOWERING? EMPOWERING? *spits on her middle finger before lifting it and waving it on the air furiously* TAKE THAT, b*tchES.

[collapse]

And for you who still think the ML is an excusable, endearing male with redeeming quality and likeable traits:

Spoiler

I yelled out when he suddenly threw the cellphone to my face. At the same time, he sternly pulled my hair up. He suddenly pushed me to the wall. With the sheer force he exerted, my shoulder struck hard. I didn't even thought of stroking it anymore even if it felt like I broke a bone I looked around the whole room – I have nowhere to run! Grasping at straws, I took the big pillow and made it a shield. But it didn't help. He pulled my feet down, so I fell onto the floor. I screamed in excruciating pain!
I fell over with my shoulder which hit the wall earlier; I think they're really fractured. I crawled away from Allen, but he caught and pulled my hair.

[collapse]

Don't you just love the way he manhandles and domestic abuse you under the disguise of jealousy and love?

***UPDATE--CHAPTER 27:

He did it. He f*cking did it, at last--

Spoiler

His unresolved anger issues caused him to kill someone--yes. His own child. He straights up abuse his wife (as always, you know, the usual) but this time, it's proven to be fatal. And the most fantastic thing is, get ready, buckle up, ready your eyes--

--HE f*ckING BLAMED HER.

"You didn't say you were pregnant, dammit! If I knew you were, then this might not happen!! You should've told me! I never intended for this to happen!"

And that's not the worst thing that happened--BEWARE, SPOILER INSIDE A SPOILER!

Spoiler

Her family was on his--the rapist, abuser--side. They were so set on having her cancel her idea of divorce. Why? Cause mum and dad don't wanna lose that company asset. It's bad for them.

[collapse]
[collapse]

***UPDATE2 --EPILOGUE

Spoiler

There's a 4 years timeskip in which they didn't talk nor even meet with each other. You think the dickbag would finally reflected on himself--NOPE, BIG MISTAKE.

In that 4 years he still didn't feel any remorse whatsoever for killing his own child, and still making excuse and blamed the wife for it (I. KID. YOU. NOT). The total loser went bemoaning his own fate and be like, "dammit! if she didn't suddenly got miscarriage like that, we would still be family and I would be having a son or daughter rn! WHY DOES BAD THING HAPPEN TO GOOD PEOPLE."

The only thing he learned during that 4 years is transforming s*x into weapon.

And that's how he """"""""""""'won'"""""""""""""" her back, through rape--I mean, s*x.

And then they lived happily ever after. :D

[collapse]

I totally recommend you to not read this story :D <<less

This story was quite dark and depressing, even if it has a happy ending. Just for that, it gets a lower rating. Sorry about that, author. That's how I roll. Even though I still read sad stories, it doesn't mean I love them.

Ok, we have Vanessa, who was in an arranged marriage to Allen, who actually liked someone else prior to their marriage. So they marry. Vanessa likes him, but Allen is just indifferent in their interactions, although he says he's trying to love her. Because somebody else liked her, she cheated on her husband, causing this story.

Ugh, really can't stand it. You could say I liked the story (if not, why would I read it?), but I also can't stand it because of how horrible and miserable their relationship became. And that's already a BIG understatement.

The husband's been abusing her this whole time, and the girl's just like, "oh it was my fault, to begin with. If I didn't cheat on him, this would've never happened. I deserve this."

I couldn't stop cursing at all the main characters in this story in my head. I think I've used just about every curse word I know to show my anger, especially those two boys. Except for Leila, Vanessa's cousin. Sometimes Zian, but he's an as****e. I at least somewhat understand the characters' points of view, but it doesn't mean I agree with what they are doing.

I haven't even read the story. The tags themselves seem like a bad combination if you considered the title of the story but if the reviews are anything to go by, then reading it would be an utter waste of time and would result in the death of quite a few of my brain cells. I'm just here to say, MAID CHAN I f*ckING LOVE YOU, GIRL!

Reading her review, oh my god, I haven't laughed like this in AGES. Damn, I don't write reviews, I wrote one like two years... more>> ago or whatever idgaf, but for her, man, I had to thank her. If I could comment on reviews, I'd blast that sh*t with my love for her lovely cussing abilities. If you haven't read her review (hardly possible because have you looked at the likes?! Well deserved, tho), go read it!

Don't read the novel, I can bet my entire life span that it's absolutely shit, just read her review instead. It can cure cancer.

+1000 likes on her review from me. I've become a fan. <<less

Can't even....

Novel glorifies male domineering abusiveness and self-righteousness while female only lives for husband/marital circumstances circa feudal, Confuciusism era lifestyles with nominal modern improvements/settings. Tragedy doesn't even begin to describe how depressing the so-called romance plot plays out.

If you want to feel disappointment, rage, frustrations and occasionally pity for female-kind who may still subsist in such repressed social norms or constructs, then read this disasterous story. Otherwise, pass since there isn't anything substantial to counteract the horrific example of human interaction or relation

What should I said...

It's super duper angsty and depressing... This is the real domestic violence... And with a ton of sh*t being put in it.

FL is meek wife that always forgiven her husband despite he had killed their child.

... more>> ML is deepsh*t husband that shouldn't been born to begin with. There I said it. He was a hopeless case in this story. Not only he not feeling regret about what he had done, he decided to blame everything to FL.

Yep, this ML is a total rundown bastard. The synopsis said you might be trigger so I am triggered. It might look HE but to me it wasn't.

That's all. Good translations, just not good type of story. Honestly, why always a lot of story based of r*ped and sh*t these days. <<less

omg I don't know from where should I start it from

first of all about fl: She is like all time "it's my fault" or "that's how much I love allen" and even don't know how to speak in everything she is crying and crying or either physical and mentally abuse by ML in short she don't hold any self respect for herself

now about ml: God dammit he is simply a psycho and mental patient he is like "you don't know how much you have hurt me" when he himself... more>> playing around with other women's in his room in front of his wife in everything he only know how to torture her or make her guilt by using the scenario or the betrayal she did 1 year ago prior to their marriage, he don't want accept his mistake and only know to say " I will never forget you" every night day or whenever he want he eats her like animal. Simply hate this kind of man who don't respect women's.

zian: It whom FL betrayed ML or ml's friend he is one more idiot who constantly causing problems to FL and because of him she nowadays gets more beats from ML and reasons of ml's jealousy he will keep on causing trouble's between ML and fl.

fl's cousin: Only and only practical and strong headed character in this novel.

hope their will be some character development because still I m in 9th chap and fed up with this ML and FL and with this love triangle. <<less

Saw this story on Wattpad but with a different language and there are a lot of reads. Like what's wrong with their minds? The main characters are hella frustrating af, they are dumb. ML is abusive and MC is weak. Their relationship is toxic.

That's why I don't trust stories in Wattpad that has millions of reads. It's always the cold, arrogant, abusive, womanizer ML while the MC is weak, poor, indecisive, and can't say no to people.

I read the original version of this years ago when toxic marriage novels are the hype. This is blood boiling and makes me want to throw my phone. It's painful that I always wish that there was a novel out there who would escape their toxic marriage and marry someone who truly love them. I don't even know why toxic relationship novels are popular back then. I remember seeing 10 of those in the recommendation in Wattpad.

I'm a Filipino and I've read this on Wattpad before. It was really bad. I can't believe it was rated so high and was famous in Ph. I don't understand why most wattpaders/dians like this kind of novel. They don't mind the MC (fl) getting abused and they forgive the ML easily even if they act the worst. Maybe they are masochists?🤷‍♀️This felt like a curse for me. I regretted reading this. The FL is s*upid. The ML is a bastard. A sad*st and a masochist. What a perfect combination👏Worst... more>> story ever. <<less

The title itself already stated what this story all about. A wife's cry so expect her to cry. Lol. Just kidding. I am not really fond of dog blooded drama so I don't know if I should continue reading this novel.
