'Mum's First Lover' by Harshavardhan C (classic english novels txt) 📕

“I am extremely sorry to disappoint you Mr. Samarat; and who has informed you that he is born to you? In fact he has not taken your lineage” No wife would dare declared to her husband in the world, but I dared and said so.

“Then who the father of this bastard is?” On hearing the information about the birth of the boy, his anger knew no bounds and he shouted me at once.

“Please don’t lose your tong at all Mr. Samarat. You only guess it. It is not so urgent for me to declare who exactly his dad is? As you said, I had a long list of dream boys, with whom I had premarital relations; and subsequently extramarital relations also ever since you have deserted me since our nuptials” I outburst myself with all my anguish.

“Shut up you dirty bitch, if it were the case, you better sign on these papers at once” He threw the papers on my face.

“What?” I doubted and raised my voice.

“You need not worry dear. It is only a Petition for mutual divorce”

“Is it that essential now Mr. Samarat? And I don’t think it is necessary for you. In fact, we are not living under the same roof for the last two years Mr. Samarat? Then is it mandatory to go for mutual divorce now? Either of us can ask for, and part with by showing the same cause of living separately for the last two years” I also understood the family law and explained him the law position.

“But it is a time consuming process dear, but I want divorce immediately from you” He lost his temper and insisted me.

“May I know the reason for your urgency please?”

“I am going to marry a western lady”

“Will it be an arranged marriage?”

“No, it will be a love marriage unlike ours”

“Really! But, I can’t believe it?”

“Trust me dear”

“Did she love you first or after you proposed her?”

“It is not one side love dear, we are classmates since I joined in medicine”

“How cum a foreigner join in medicine in India as it is too expensive?”

“She is the only daughter to a billionaire unlike you to a millionaire only; and she doesn’t care for money, but she is only interested in the Indian traditions and customs besides she likes to do medicine in India”

“Then, I must congratulate you, but her’s is a poor taste”

“Thanks, but Why?”

“You are not a fresher”

“Who told you? And how can you certify that?”

“You are already married and are a father of two years boy, but still she is fond of you means something wrong in her perception”

“Your perception about me is wrong; and in fact you are only second and she is first in my life and she is already mother of a three years daughter. In fact we had been in dating since we join in medicine”

“So you have knowingly and intentionally deceived me and my dad. Why have you done this? What for you have cheated us? Is it for grabbing properties and assets? Or what more?” I lost my temper and caught hold of his collar and asked him point blank.

“Because your dad is a too selfish and also a miser. As he invested on me for my studies I made him believe; and there is no necessity for his help or anything from him. And hence now I came out openly. And now I need divorce from you at once”

“Why you need instant divorce? And I don’t find any justified reason for me at this stage” I put him in quandary.

“But I need it for legalising my relation with Miss. Julie” He came out openly with the truth.

But still I had my own doubts. For that matter any bride will think about her and her’s offspring’s future.

“It’s okay, it is your problem and moreover by getting divorce I don’t think that I can get my career back?” I broke out with all my pain and agony of losing my beautiful life and career.

“Are you expecting any compensation from me Rosaline?” He tempted me rather heckled me.

“Yes of course, but I am doubtful whether I can truly get it from you or not?” I never believed him and said so.

“Then tell me honestly what exactly you expect from me? Is it breakup by mutual understanding and compensation off the record? Or you want divorce legally and compensation, followed by maintenance through the court of law?”He never bothered as he was answering not his better half but a call girl.

“Yes of course and I need both; and my compensation from you is to leave my home and family; and you should not come into our lives henceforth and ask any share in our properties” I bore all the humiliation and said finally.

“Okay I agree. Then sign at once on the petition” He kept the document in front of me.

I was trying to read the paper.

“Are you suspecting my bona fides Rosaline?” He said in the meanwhile.

“Yes of course; and I don’t even believe myself. This is all because of you only, since the day you have raped me during the nuptials and spoiled my life, I have decided to part with you, but now you yourself offered me freedom to get rid of the hell; and now I am feeling happy to sign on the divorce papers” I said and I just signed on the papers.

“Is there anything I left with you Mrs. Rosaline?”

“Nothing”

“No you are bluffing. There is so much I left with you”

“What remains with me Mr. Samarat, except the much hated flesh and blood? You are well aware of the fact that you have spoiled me both physically and mentally also. And your behaviour has turned me hostile towards males in general. And what more you expect from me. I just remain as vamper on bed, mother of a child without parentage, widow with wedlock, and finally a woman without the honour of womanhood” That was all, which was a fact cum true and I admitted that frankly.

I was annoyed with his attitude and behaviour after I signed on the papers.

“You have forgotten Mrs. Rosaline that you have a cute and innocent Master Rohit of course” So saying he lifted Rohit from the cradle, holding him tight and stepping out of my bungalow.

I was shocked as if a thunder bolt fell just in front of me. I feared by both on hearing his nerveless tong and also seeing his cruel act of lifting Rohit with single hand.

“You have promised me Samarat; and please don’t violate our gentleman agreement and family includes my son also Samarat” I submitted to him as humbly as possible at once.

“No baby, it is not that easy, anyway are you ready to accept my conditions to leave your son”

“I am living for my son only and nothing is important than him, please tell me Mr. Samarat” I was frustrated and ready to sacrifice even for my life for my son.

“Then open your lap top Rosaline” He said jubilantly.

“What for?” I asked him innocently.

“Well you have to transfer all your deposits from your accounts to my account” Said Mr. Samarat.

“It is in human Mr. Samarat. In fact you have already got transferred all the landed property, power plant which were already on my name before our marriage as dowry. And if I transfer the deposits also which are on my name, myself and my son remain penny less” I didn’t hesitate to speak the facts, though it was belittling my stature, but for my offspring I had come down and almost begged him.

“I have no feelings and attachments to react emotionally Rosaline. And my philosophy of life is so simple. When there is no off human bondage between us, why should I care for you or even think about your child. I am quite practical and commercial. I am only concerned about my life and my career” He once again proved himself a quite selfish human being down to earth man.

“Neither me nor my parents never knew your mind Samarat. And you have also forgotten the fact that I am your niece, besides legally wedded wife?” I tried to remind him about our blood relation other than physical relation.

“But to escape from the hands of the present devil is much worth than the ensuing poverty I believe; and I am telling you better understand in your own interest Rosaline” He said cutthroat.

“It’s okay Samarat, and now you have given me clarity about you. I must say that the word devil is insufficient for you or least it’s Oxford dictionary meaning needs to be changed to suit to your cruelty” I vomited out my much hatred against him.

“You are absolutely right Mrs. Rosaline. But you are too late and you proved to be quite poor in assessing others, especially men whom you come across”

“That’s all Samarat and I thank you for you have taught me a good lesson about money and men. And the world has learn your a new definition analysis about wife and husband, which according to you is not social but economical, besides lust rather than love and affection” I retaliated him finally before we were parting with.

And I then opened my laptop and transferred all my deposits from my accounts to his account internet banking at once.

Then he left my son and crossed checked his accounts in my lap top.

He hardly spent one hour with us and during one hour he created havoc and all that he did was only to grab our properties.

“Mrs. Rosaline I want to confirm one thing from you. Is Master Rohit really born to me?” While deserting me and my son he asked me ridiculously.

I was then perturbed not for losing my properties and became pauper, but my handsome husband had a serious doubt about his manhood questioning the motherhood of his wife, which was really a deplorable thing in the 21st century.

“No man in the world knows the fact whether he is the father of the child or not, unless the woman tells the truth Mr. Samarat. And let the doubt burn you till you actually burn to flames on your death and that was the only suspense and mystery I can hold it forever as a mark of my vengeance against your manhood”

“What bloody vengeance Mrs. Rosaline. Your game is already over. It seems you didn’t read the matter thoroughly before signing on the divorce petition. You will be shocked if I reveal the point’s mentioned in the petition for mutual divorce that you have an affair with your classmate Mr. Nihan; and on knowing it is decided mutually between us to get separated. Now whether you tell the truth or not you remain as a bitch and the offspring will be a bastard”

“It’s okay Mr. Samarat when I was silent about the half spring means the same I abide by it now also; and thanks and good bye forever to you; and for God’s sake please don’t turn up even if I die earlier than you; and I promise I too never turn up for you if the reverse happen” I said seriously and removed my bindi and pulled out my wedlock and threw them on his face.

“So you declare that Dr. Samarat is dead and live comfortably as a widow of Samarat, rather than marrying somebody” He looked at me smilingly and said.

“I am not a vulgar woman to go mad after sex like you Mr. Samarat; and I am confident that no person or force can tempt me rather change my mind to invite anybody into my life again”

“Now you are caught free and why don’t you invite Mr. Nihan into your life?”

“Mr. Samarat, now I
