Mr. President's Wife

Chapter 12; Unknown Number

Roxette pov

I dropped my body heavily on the bed.

I’m not sure where I got tired, whether from shopping or wondering who the woman I met earlier in the elevator was.

I knew I had no right to ask Ralf, so I kept quiet earlier in the office. I also don't want to look like a fool if I'm misstaken.

As much as possible I wanted to avoid doing anythings that would make him angry.

Still I couldn't help but think.

I tried to find out the identity of Ralf's ex -girlfriend before but I didn't see anything, it looks like someone intentionally deleted it and I didn't see even a single picture of her.

Now that I’m thinking about this, What should my reaction be in case I see or meet his ex -girlfriend?

I took a deep sigh then closed my eyes.

I don't know why I'm feeling this weird,

"What if she's the type of woman I can't beat?

Maybe that's why Ralf can’t forget her.

“Why do these things come to my mind now?

"Roxette, stop this!

I said to myself then sat on the side of the bed and looked at the paper bags I had bought earlier.

"I have to do it now.'

I whispered, I should turn my mind into something else.

I took off the clothes I was wearing to get change. And crossed the floor where there were the paper bags that I bought for wedding gifts.

This reminds me of my childhood dream. Being someone in the store and wrapping gifts.

But of course that's just a pity dream of a little girl which is impossible to happen.

I was so busy wrapping that I didn't even realize the time had passed.

"Uh-huh! My back hurts. '

I exclaimed while stretching my body.

I stood up and put away the scattered gift wrapped on the floor.

Then I searched for my phone to check the time.

It's going to be ten o'clock in the evening, but what gets my attention the most is the unknown number that texted.

"Ralf?"

I whispered, this is the first time he texted me.

"It's a good thing he agreed to accompany me to the wedding.

I immediately saved his number to my contact list.

"Mr. President '

That was more appropriate for him, so that's all I put.

I threw my body on the soft bed. I suddenly felt a butterfly in my stomach.

Maybe others will think I'm too shallow a person to be thrilled with a simple text message.

I looked at my phone again and replied.

"Okay '

Because I'm busy with the thrill I'm feeling, I can't think of anything else to reply to him.

This is exactly the feeling I felt the first time he kissed me, that night, even though he was drunk and he didn't want that to happen.

The next day, I spent my time preparing the things I would need, since the wedding venue was on the beach so I bought a few pairs of swimsuits.

I feel like I'm going on a honeymoon. It's something I didn't do because after Ralf and I got married, he left immediately and I wasn't in the place to ask about it, especially since we both didn't like the wedding that happened to us.

I also went to Ralf's room to get some of his things. I know he will be angry when he finds out that I entered his room, I'll just say that Esmi is the one who prepared his things.

I could hardly sleep, because I was thinking about what might happen the next day. I'm so excited that I'm nervous to think that we'll be together on the trip for a long time.

Irish said it would take three to four hours to arrive in the private resort where the wedding will be held.

Ivan and Irish went there first and she also told me how beautiful the place was.

And it makes me even more excited to see.

Next Day ....

I woke up at three in the morning.

I took a shower and got dressed so that when Ralf arrived we would leave straight away.

I wore a white string crop top sleeveless and put on a see through cover up jacket in shade of powder blue on top of it.

And denim shorts that exposed my long thighs.

I was ready and at any moment Ralf would come to pick me up.

While waiting for him to arrive,I make a cup of coffee.

My coffee was just about a half cup when I heard the sound of Ralf's car.

"Esmi! We're leaving! '

I shouted at Esmi who was in the kitchen.

I immediately took the travel bag I was going to take and ran out of the mansion. Esmi ran after me with another travel bag containing Ralf's belongings.

I could see how Ralf put the back of His palm in his mouth when he saw me.

He was wearing a blue beach shirt and black pants with a thin fabric I assume. That was just right for the venue we were going to.

He opened the front seat next to Him so I sat in there.

"Bye Esmi! 'Take care of everything while we're gone.

I said goodbye to Esmi after she put in the back seat the other bag and the large paper bag with two large gift boxes.Then Ralf started the car and we left.

While we were on our way, I did nothing but yawn and yawn because I was lacking sleep.

The silence between the two of us inside the car made me even more sleepy.

“And, we were going to spend the next three hours l like this? Oh goodness!

In my mind as I look out the car window.

"If you're that sleepy, Then go to sleep!

I'll just wake you up when we arrive."

He says.But he's sight stays on the road.

"It's okay, I'm not sleepy."

I just say but here it is and I couldn't stop my yawning.

"Oh, really?'

He said and he looked at me for a while.

"just a little, I guess?'

"It's really embarrassing.

In my mind then I squeezed my head into the corner.

3 Hours later......

I didn't really intend to sleep the whole trip, but it looks like that's what I did.

I woke up when the car door slammed.

I opened my eyes immediately and saw that Ralf was already out of the car.

I rolled my eyes around and there I realized that we had reached our destination.

I got out of the car while Ralf picking up our belongings in the back seat.

I fixed my loose hair first because it was a mess while I was sleeping.

I rolled my eyes to find where to check in.

"Roxette!

From afar Irish running towards me.

"Hey! You guys finally arrived!

She snatched my travel bag and accompanied me on my walk.

We entered the reception hall entrance to that resort where there is also a restaurant and there are people currently chatting and eating.

I think the groom's relatives are the ones there because I quite familiar to Loraine's relatives.

Ralf followed us with a large paper bag and his black travel bag.

As Irish spoke to the receptionist to ask for the room number and the Key, I looked around the whole place.

It's not that big, it's just right for around fifty people, I estimate.

What caught my attention was the woman sitting at the far end.

She was looking in the direction where we were.

And In an instant I recognized her face. I can't forget her , she's the woman I saw in the mall and in the elevator, just recently.

I turned my gaze to Ralf standing at my back and I frowned when I found out that he was staring at that woman.

"What is this? Are they staring at each other?

"Right in front of me? '

I growled in my mind as I looked at Ralf's expression .

"This is your Key!

Irish handed me the Key.

“Let’s go?

I said but Ralf remained silent

"RALF! '

I intentionally raised up my voice and he seemed to come to his senses and look at me.

I frowned and walked away first.
