Now it makes sense, Myles was the one who his work is put on hold because of the wedding and he went to work today. The surname Wilson makes it clear that he was the one she has been talking about!
“How did you know my boss name?” She looks confused
Why won’t I know? Of course he was my husband!! Wait do I just say my husband?? I mean we are legally married but ………… I don’t even know
Should I just tell her that he’s my husband or what? No am keeping my marriage a secret
“U-ummm—I mean, who doesn’t know Myles Wilson? He’s everyone dream B—boyfriend cause he’s rich and handsome and he’s also famous” i slightly stuttered with a fake smile
“Oh! That’s right, people die to work there but it a rare opportunity like me” she smiles
“Miss Lana your iced Americano coffee is ready” the attendant said
“It’s was nice meeting you Maeve” smiling as she stands up
“It’s my pleasure, bye!” I waved. After she left I was called to take my drink
I left the building sipping my drink, I don’t think I can go home like this. Rudy might think something bad happened and I don’t think he will want me to go out next time and I don’t want to go home yet, there’s still time
I was bored staying at home already, I enter the car and start the engine thinks of what to do
“Oh!” I said aloud with a big smile
“I can go for shopping!! Weekend shopping is the best!, I can use the opportunity to go back late, by the time I finish shopping and go back home within a little hour Myles will be back by then” I thought this is a great idea, I felt happier
“Thanks Lana!” I shouted in the car as I sip my drink
***********************************************
“There’s going to be an interview on Monday, Alright?” I said as I hanged up
I thought am going to leave earlier, I should go home. Maeve will be the only one in the house and I think she’s going to be bored all day
Minutes later
“Welcome back sir” Rudy greeted and follow me in
“Maeve?” I ask as I go through the room and I can’t find her inside
“Am sorry sir, She wanted to go and get something so I let her, I should have insisted” Rudy apologized.
“What? Why will you let her go out alone? She barely know this place! Even if she wants to go, you should have let her go with some maids!” I yelled and I quickly dial her number on my phone
“Am sorry sir”
“Even though you know she’s not back yet by this time you should have call me so that I can call her to ask where she is!” I felt so angry and anxious, I know I have never feel this way before but I felt scared of losing her
“What! Switched off?” I wondered what is happening now. I tried again and again it’s still the same thing I should call my detective he’s going to help me with it
I went outside, “My car key where is it?” I asked cause I drop it with him when I came back. I need
to do something about it before it’s too late
He pass me my key and I dial the detective number “hey Kenny” I said
“Sir what happened your voice feels like you are worried about something, was it?”
“Can you help me to track someone!”
“Who?” He curiously asked
“M-mmm—-” hesitant by the entering of a car, it was her
“Never mind, bye” I hanged up
She get down with a bag of clothes, it’s quite much. The maids rush to her side to take it from her
“Why are you outside? You are even sweating” she wondered as she asked me
I felt confused and stupid at that moment, am I too overprotective or just dump. I was speechless for a while but seeing her again I felt angry
“Why is your phone switched off?” I asked calmly but I still feel like I should just say my mind
“Oh! That’s—” she was cut off by me
“I mean I know you might want to go out but you barely knew this place! I was really thinking something happened cause your line keeps saying switch off, Do you know how worried I am?”
“My phone switched off on my way back, so I didn’t mind to charge it in the car cause I thought I will soon reach home, I don’t know you will be this worried, Am sorry” she apologized with her eyes full of guilt, instantly I felt like I just hurt her but still I don’t want to admit it, she’s driving me crazy
“The reason I left outside was because I—”
“You don’t need to tell me, it’s already obvious the reason why you didn’t want anyone to follow you and you also came back late and it’s your right to meet whoever he is” I feels a little hurt while saying it, she looks speechless and confused
I can imagine what happened, it’s obvious she went to meet her boyfriend and after enjoying their time together I think he took her for shopping I guess, they were original brands am sure there’s no way he’s richer than me
who said I can’t buy her stuff like that, Is it Gucci or Prada?? I will even tell them to make it for her that it’s going to be made for her only.
I walked away still thinking about her, I felt like looking back to see her face even if it’s just one gaze but I also don’t want to.
Maeve POV
“Rudy am sorry, I should have come back sooner” I apologized
“No it’s fine, I think it was boss that need this”
“He has never got angry like this before, I know you are husband and wife but still even if it something more serious he wouldn’t get angry at me but he did today, he was so worried because you are important to him” Rudy said with a smile
“He was so worried???” I
All I keep thinking was him, I can’t help but to remember him telling me how worried he was, even Rudy also confirmed.
I lay on the bed alone, Rudy explained to me earlier that he said he wants his room back so from now on we are going to be sleeping separately.
Lying down I recall last night, staring at his handsome face and when he caught me and open it I saw his green eyes, it irresistible that I had to cover my face with blankets. Smiling at this memory brings me back to his reaction
I think he misunderstood, he thought I went out with a guy, maybe that the reason why he was mad that am late?? No I don’t think so, he didn’t like me am sure of it cause the way he looked at me this morning. I shrugged thinking about it
But still I don’t know why, I don’t want him to misunderstand. I just wanted to let him know that I went alone
I mustered up my courage and went to his room. Knock, knock “Rudy?” He asked. I know that’s the only person he thinks of, he won’t even thought it was me.
“It’s me” I said with a low voice
“Oh! Come in” he said and I entered
He was sitting on the couch with a paper in his hand focused on it like he doesn’t want to be distracted
“I—mm—” I stuttered as I noticed he was shirtless and I guess he just had a shower making his hair wet and he look so handsome and sexier
He look at me and our gaze met, oh! there’s butterflies in my belly
“Do you leave the room for me because you are mad at me?” I was so curious about it
“You think?” He said shortly
“Yes, I know I should have called but I don’t expect you to be this worried am sorry” i apologize but still he was not giving me the kind of attention i wanted. He still keep looking at the paper.
“I went out because am bored, being alone is also depressing so I thought I should go out. I only went to take a drive but I felt thirsty so I went to get a drink and on my way I bumped into someone and her coffee spilled on my clothes so that’s the reason I went for shopping” I explained and he raised his head up to look at me without removing his gaze
“You know it’s weekend, so everywhere is busy” I added he still not saying anything
“You are not going to talk to me?” I feel like am being too cringey so I had to leave, is it because we are not real that’s why he doing this
I open the door to leave but I was stopped by him
“Am sorry” I heard him say so I had to turn around
“I feels like I jumped into conclusions and I hurt you earlier” he said and come closer
“No you didn’t” I replied fast and added
“I could have come earlier than this but I feels like you will still be busy at work so I didn’t mind waiting there”
“But still…” he looks at me with a guilty face
“No you did nothing wrong, you had the right to be worried”
“Am legally your wife” I mumbled and he laughed
He looks so hot! it’s has been a while since I saw him laughing or smiling he has been giving me a cold vibe for now.
