CLS#1 Arrogant Billionaire's wife

Weakness

Hi kitties.

Steven

Have you ever felt relief after getting near to the thing or person whom you love? I felt the same when I met my family and it felt so good to meet them once again.

“Come and let’s have breakfast. We were so excited to meet you that we didn’t have breakfast.”

“You didn’t have to do that much.” I said to my mother with a smile. I ordered Eva to cook breakfast for all of us.She prepared our breakfast in half an hour and served us. We all had breakfast even though I was full and I was quite confused. Though everyone seemed to enjoy the food, I felt that there was a change of taste in it. Does the food she makes taste different every time? I thought to myself but was left with no answer and closed that topic thinking that it might be the case.

Except for that, I was observing Nicole from time to time and I could see that she was kind of uncomfortable, as if she was trying to adjust to the sudden environmental change but was unable to completely adapt to it. Shall I go over and talk with her? My eyes widened a little when I realized what I had thought. Why do I want to comfort her? Now, upon looking at her, I feel familiar as if I had seen her somewhere before, which I had noticed today. Have we met before? That was the only question that popped into my mind and the answer was a blank screen in my mind and after thinking about this for a while, I also dropped it when I didn’t find anything in my memories.

After having breakfast, I went towards my study room as I still had some work left for tomorrow. I took a chair and started to go through the file which was needed for Monday's presentation. I heard a knock and before I could have said anything, the door opened which told me who might have come and I looked up to see my mother.

"How are you son?" She asked me. I was confused because her voice sounded worried, as if I was in some kind of death situation.

"I am fine, mom." I said it normally after completely ignoring her tone. She was smiling, then her face turned into disgust, which quite shocked me. What had made her face go from smiling to disgust in just one second? "Honestly, I don’t know what you feel about that girl who is called your ‘wife’ now, but I don't like your wife at all. If I had the right to choose your wife, then I would definitely choose a nice girl, not a middle-class girl. Alice was much better than her." She said and as soon as she finished saying that, suddenly dad also entered the room and sat across from me and I didn’t even get the chance to reply to my mother.

“What were you both talking about?”

“Nothing much. I am just worrying about my son. How can dad choose such a girl to be our son’s wife?”

“Don’t be suspicious of dad's choice. I have known him longer than you and I know that whatever he does, has a reason behind it.” Father defended and I am also aware of that. My grandfather had taken so many such decisions which have been fruitful in the end.

“Whatever, but I don’t like that girl at all.” Mom looked away.

“You don’t even have to try right now, I know that time will make you like her.” After that my father felt silent and that was quite a weird one because he had wrinkles on his forehead and that only happens when he has something serious going on in his mind.

"What happened dad?" I asked him and he looked at him before he sighed and this also caught my mother’s attention.

"I have very awful confusion," he said.

"And, it is?" I asked.

"Nicole looks very familiar to me, as if I had known her for years. But I can’t explain why." He said, and it left me and mom in total shock. I also felt the same when I had seen her on the dining table, but I didn't think that dad would also find the same thing.

"What?" My mom and I said in unison.

"I don't know why, but it seems that I have seen her before and she has those Hazel green eyes which are familiar and are similar to someone who was close to me. And the politeness in her voice is also the same. I am going crazy because I can’t remember that person who was so similar to her." He said.

"Dad, you might be overthinking," I said.

"Maybe," he said, and another time the door opened and this time my sister Tracy came inside. She was looking furious about something, but about what?

"I don't like that girl, Nicole, a bit. I don't know what magic she has done to our grandparents that they are laughing and talking to her freely. If I had to choose the bride for you, then she would be Alice. Not anyone else. She is much better than her," Tracy said, and between, she gritted also. I know, except my grandparents, Dad and Adith, everyone liked Alice.

"We can't do anything because it was dad’s decision," Dad said, and we all nodded.

"I don't know what grandpa saw in her," Tracy huffed.

"OH, I had almost forgotten about this." Dad said.

"What about dad?" I asked him.

"Tracy and Adith will be living with you for about three months. Your mom and I are not going to be here for three months as we are going to the UAE for some important work and your grandparents are going to Paris for a party to attend, so they also can't take care of them and, after the party they will join us, so maybe it will take four months as well but until we return they both are going to live here only." Dad said.

"I have no problem. This is their house also,” I said with a smile and he nodded.

"Now I have three months. Now I will make her pay for marrying you bro." Tracy said.

"I also want to take revenge on her. She has to break down." I said with a smirk. And mom and Tracy also smirk along with me.

"But I am getting the feeling that this girl is going to make you break down and will bring you to your knees, after all that someone I know was also strong," Dad said.

“You are not remembering that 'someone's' name but you know their quality well. Is that your ex you are talking about?” My mom was furious.

“No, I don’t have any exs.”

"Dad, you are getting the wrong feeling." I said and my phone started to ring, so I took it and went out of there to attend to it and left my family in the room to discuss among themselves. I went downstairs and saw that whatever Tracy had said was true. Nicole and my grandparents were all talking with each other and smiling and laughing. Whenever Nicole was smiling I was getting relaxed and something was blooming as well, I think?

Hey, what is happening to me? I asked myself. I didn't know the answer and just like my father said a few minutes ago that he was going crazy, right now I am going crazy. My phone buzzed and that brought me back to reality and I saw that the previous call had already ended and now it was from Alice. I stared at the phone. Though I should be happy that she had called me, I don't know why, but I didn't have the heart to talk to her and even to pick her calls up.

But then also, I went outside and picked it up.

"Hi babe." She said and her voice was overly sweet as if she had drunk a jar of honey before she called me.

"Hi." I said in a casual voice.

"What happened babe? Are you okay?" She asked.

"I am fine. You tell me why you have called me? I thought that we had broken up already?" I asked.

"After breaking up with you, I realized I was missing you. I still love you. I can't take you out of my brain. Can you come and meet me?" Alice said and I smiled. I shouldn’t give in, I shouldn’t give in right now. I tried to make myself understand, but thank God that she is still in love with me.

"I will come and meet you soon, but not now," I said.

"It is fine with me babe as long as you can come. Bye. Love you." She said

"Love you." And I hung up. I was relieved that she was no longer angry with me. If I want, I can also go now and meet her, but not today. Soon I will meet her and I will develop my relationship with her. But is there anything which I am doing wrong because my heart is saying that? I returned to the living room and they were still talking and laughing. I didn't care much, but I started to go towards my room when I heard a melodious giggle. I looked at the person and found it was Nicole.

Is dad right? Will she be the reason of my break down and will it become my weakness? I don't know. All I know is that if it is true, then no one can save me.
