Billionaire Little Wifey

FOUR

It is their wedding day.

Benjamin and Meghan had deepened their connection and grew more in love. But Meghan was now more confused than ever after listening to Benjamin’s conversation last night on the phone.

"Isabella, please help me with this dress", Meghan was shouting at her best friend.

Aunties, nephews, many people were all running inside and around the house.

Meghan was an orphan so she had fewer relatives compared to Benjamin who were doing everything they can to make her day special.

“I look beautiful in this dress but I am afraid of getting married to Benjamin. But do I have a choice? I don’t think so!” She thought after putting on her wedding gown and looking at herself in the mirror.

Their marriage was initiated by an old priest who was Benjamin's father's friend. It was a quick and full of emotions ceremony. They exchanged very romantic vows which made people cry. The bride was crying out of joy, and in her thoughts, she was in awe of how beautiful her wedding was.

"I could have never imagined a day like this". Meghan thought.

The continuation of their wedding ceremony was filled with joy and fun.

Everyone was either dancing, drinking, laughing, or shouting.

The reception took place at the Marriott Hotel, on the poolside.

Everything was well organized, and each guest was well taken care of.

Benjamin's parents were present also, and they looked very proud and happy for their son but they did not talk much with Meghan and seemed to ignore her presence which made her even more worried.

As the day wrapped, Meghan and Benjamin expressed their gratitude to their guests in a speech and left the party to go start their honeymoon.

An airplane was waiting for them at the airport, and they flew to Rome in Italy. Their honeymoon was scheduled to be filled with romance, luxury, expensive food, party nights, boat cruises but it didn’t go that way.

When they arrived in Rome, and checked in their hotel Meghan thought it would be a good idea to ask Benjamin about what she heard on the phone or why his parents seemed to not like her. But when she did the atmosphere changed and Benjamin was in rage.

“Why did you listen to that conversation?” Benjamin said.

“I had no intention to, I had called you to tell you about the woman who came to my house to warn me about marrying you but when you picked my call you didn’t talk so I could hear you talk to the other person, and who was he by the way?” Meghan replied.

“No one that you know. And you should care less about what people tell you about me Meghan” Benjamin replied angrily before leaving the hotel room and leaving Meghan alone.

Meghan couldn’t help it so she cried but after an hour Benjamin came back with flowers in his hands and apologized to her.

“Meghan, my love, I am sorry I overreacted but all of that doesnt mean anything as long as we have got each other. And I can promise you that I love you and I cannot wait for you to become the mother of my child” Benjamin said when apologizing.

Meghan, who was so in love with him, forgave him and they spent their first honeymoon night filled with love and passion.

Every day of their honeymoon vacation carried its own surprise and Meghan who was not used to luxurious life was overwhelmed by everything that was happening for her and she forgot about the sadness she had felt before in regards to Benjamin.

The night before their honeymoon ended, they had dinner in a very chic five-star hotel and they were drinking cocktails when Benjamin said to Meghan,

“There is something you need to promise me!”

“What?” Meghan asked curiously

“Promise me that you are going to give me a child”.

“Of course my love, I will be the mother of your children” Meghan said while laughing because she thought Benjamin was joking, but he looked at her with a serious face, and she understood it wasn't a joke. So, the next morning they packed their bags and went to the airport. They immediately went to their new house, which was a mansion filled with luxurious pieces of art and flowers because Benjamin loved flowers.

"Welcome to your home Mrs. Harper", Benjamin said when they reached. They toured the house and they ended the evening with a night filled with passion.

"Have a nice day sweetheart", Meghan told Benjamin in the morning.

"Good day", Benjamin replied as he took his breakfast box.

Meghan's life was pretty much the same, resuming at being a housewife. But now she was used to living with her husband and to the luxurious life he offered her but she had not yet fallen pregnant. Benjamin who had begged her to have a child had now lost hope and had started to behave rudely towards her. All her close friends were telling her to leave him but she did not want to.

One weekend, she found out he was cheating on her with a certain Hope, when his phone received a message from her, saying "I miss you so much sweetheart, leave your stupid wife, she cannot even give you a child"

As Meghan read the text message, she grew pale and couldn't believe any of what she just read.

"Is Benjamin really cheating on me?", she thought as tears dropped down her cheeks. Her friends had tried to warn her but she chose not to listen to them.

There was a nice gym in their neighborhood so Meghan decided to start going there to exercise so that she can find something to keep her mind busy. The next morning she went there to evacuate all her sadness but when she walked out of the gym, she met a man who seemed to recognize her and smiled at her. She didn't recognize him at first.

"Meghan?", the man said.

Meghan ignored him because she was in her head.

"You don't remember me?" the man said again.

“I cannot remember you, do I know you?”. Meghan said.

“I am Cedric, we went to the same highschool”, he said with a smile. “How have you been?” He added.

"I have been good, what about you? It has been a very long time”, she added, smiling too.

"I have been alright, I didn't know you lived in this neighborhood?" He asked curiously.

"I do, I live at Gate 1, Second Avenue” Meghan said with a smile.

They talked for a short time to catch up and they exchanged numbers. Cedric had been an old acquaintance of Meghan, and they used to be close, so she was happy to meet someone she trusted, at that moment of her life, when she needed a friend and a distraction from her marriage.

“What if I use him to make my husband jealous?” Meghan thought.

“Meghan is still attractive but now she is married so my only chances are to convince her to be my mistress because when I saw her, I started lusting for her!” Cedric thought on his way back home.
