"Hey, good morning!"
"Hi, Andrew! Wow, you are up so early."
"Early bird catches the worm, am I right?"
"I guess. What are you eating?"
"Just some eggs, and grits. I made some for you too."
"That's so sweet."
"You are after all my guest here."
"I guess. So I'm going over to the cafe today."
"Okay."
"Okay well, I'll see you later today."
"Have a good day, and oh Lily? Good luck!"
"Haha, thanks."
As Lily walks out the door she sighs, she has 108 missed calls from Wen. Undoubtedly they were from his assistant Robert, but that's still some effort, right? She looks down at her phone, she had put the phone on silent, but the screen still lit up. She decides to answer.
"Hello, Wen."
"Hello, wife. I think you forgot your status."
"What status?"
"You are my wife."
"And? Is that all you are calling me for?"
"Come back right now, I want to talk to you."
"Wen you can't just order me around."
"Oh really? Because I can have someone at your door ready to pick you up in 10. You sure I can't?"
"Do you have anything better to do than spy on my whereabouts."
"Well as Mrs.Hiu, the wife of Hiu Corporation you know your rules."
"I do?"
"I know you do."
"Why don't you remind me?"
"Lily, I'm downstairs right now. Come downstairs, or I'll come up."
"No."
"Oh really? You really want to play huh?"
Lily looks out the building window and sure enough, there was a row of 10 Lamborghinis waiting outside. She quickly hangs up the phone.
"What is he trying to prove! UGH."
Lily heads back to Andrew's house, she rings the doorbell. "Come on..."
Then a thought hits her, he's working. He must have left the house.
"Lily."
Lily looks at a very familiar, and handsome figure coming towards her.
"Wen," Lily says and tilts her head in stress.
"He's not home," Wen says with a smirk.
"I can tell."
Wen walks towards Lily with long strides. Lily flinches and tries to run. Wen grabs her by the hips, and within a second he was carrying her bridal style.
Lily breathes deeply unintentionally breathing in Wen's cologne.
"Wen put me down," Lily says with gritted teeth. Her heart's pounding, this is the first time he has touched her on his will.
"Are you going to be a good girl?" Wen says with a half-smile as he walks toward the elevator.
Lily just looks away.
They wait quietly as the elevator hits the ground floor of the apartment building. Robert is already waiting for them with the door open.
"Sir."
"Get in the car and lock the door," Wen says to Robert.
Robert knew exactly what he meant, and hurries toward the driver's side of the car.
Lily looks at Wen in shock.
"Why are you doing this?" Lily asks.
Wen plops her in the seat, puts her seatbelt on for her.
"You are my wife, act like it," Wen says menacingly and slides in beside her.
Lily unplugs her seatbelt and tries to open the door farthest from him, but as assumed it's locked. She gives Robert an angry look.
"I'm sorry madam."
"Don't apologize to her."
"Drive," Wen says looking at his phone busily.
