The Betrayal of Trust

The institution of marriage has suffered a significant setback due to divorce that continually erodes its foundation. Statistics show that 42-45% of first marriages, 60% of second marriages, and 73% of third marriages end in divorce. It is not the purpose of this book to discuss the factors that rift families apart. However, it digests the love story of two married couples whose flawless beginning drips like a honeycomb that hits the rock in the long run. Therefore, the betrayal of trust is a story of love, hope, betrayal, and restoration. Born with a silver spoon in her mouth, Catherine repeatedly demonstrated that poverty could not quench true love. She infused her parents’ wealth into her family business, making Ambrose, her poor husband, one of the wealthiest men of all time. But she was repaid with ingratitude when barrenness began to rock the foundation of their marriage. Being sneaky, he decided to father a child out of wedlock after over two decades of failed infertility treatment. The result of his infidelity caused a severe blow to Catherine’s wellbeing. She found herself in a world of illicit drug abuse that nearly took her life. Her housemaid, who later became her spiritual mentor, never abandoned her. Through her, she came to the knowledge of the living God. The God she claimed to be the God of the brokenhearted that never disappoints. Regardless of this assurance, she could not swallow her unbearable devastating pain.In the process of time, she let go of her bitterness and moved on. Through providence, she met Steve, a wretched homeless drug recovering addict, in a drug rehabilitation facility where they were both treated. Their journey together led to the miraculous birth of her only son at an age many considered impossible for a woman to conceive.
