Adira’s POV My husband is taking so long outside. I was told by his secretary that Chadwick will come back as soon as possible. But it’s been past 30 minutes since he went out of the event venue with his dearly Isa. Worried it might cause misunderstanding to the guests, which already happened, I went out to find him.I am so damn sure there will be an article or rumor after this. But if Chadwick and I came in together, we might find away to somehow lessen the problem.‘If we can explain to everyone that Isa is a friend of us, then the rumor will be light.’ I hated to consider that dumb woman as my friend, though. No matter how special they are to each other, they should know how to differentiate things they can and cannot do.‘What came to Chadwick’s mind that he invited his woman in this event?’ I wanted to curse his foolishness. But at the back of my head, I wonder if this might be my punishment for kissing him inside the limo. The reasons why I kissed him are very simple. First,
The CEO of Wine&Vibe is having an affair right in front of his wife. This rumor circulated among peers in businesses, especially those who attended the event last night. It’s not been that long since Jaymee released an article that showcasing the love between Chadwick and Adira. Even youngster, who read the magazine and gave support for the two were so disappointed after they heard the rumor about Chadwick’s affair. This might have a huge downfall effect to their project. Therefore, Chadwick and Adira thought of a way to solve the problem, and that is to advertise the wine together. Chadwick’s side will release the statement that the rumor isn’t true and Adira’s side also said that the woman her husband saved that night is a great friend of her. After that, they went to the studio to start their photo shoot for the wine’s advertising magazine, poster and online banner. Chadwick is wearing a black polo sleeves with three unbuttoned buttons from the collar downward, showing his sharp c
Before the photo shoot started, Adira reached for the photographer and asked him a favor.[“Tell us to make intimate poses.”]The theme for the photo shoot is the advertisement of the newly launched wine made by Wine&Vibe and Crimson Meadow. Poster, pictures, and banners will be used to promote the product in digital and traditional magazines and online sites. Therefore, there’s no need for Chadwick and Adira to make intimate poses for they will only use a proper and formal picture to advertise.However, to the man who made a ruckus in the middle of the event, Adira thinks this is the best way to punish her husband.“Mrs. Adira will sit on your lap, sir.”The first hurdle that Chadwick should face is letting Adira sit on his lap.Just hearing the words made his palms sweaty and his heart beating so fast.Withal, he has no choice but to do what the photographer asked him to do. Either way, he is the reason why they had to model together, in order to shut down the rumors about his affair
Adira woke up, the same as every day stretching her legs off her bed and onto the floor, her arms raised up grazing the ceiling.It was a dry and windy morning. Just weeks ago, the weather was stormy heat but now, the temperature suddenly decreases as people bid their goodbyes to summer and welcomed autumn.Adira turned to the window, delighted to see the blue sky with just one giant cloud above. Sure, many has idea of a beautiful day that might include blue skies and fairies but for Adira, today was… Friday. Nothing special was going on and she had to go to work.“I am excited to see the leaves from Deciduous trees to fall, though,” she murmured before she got out of bed. As she waltzed to get her phone to the top of the cabinet, she smelled the aroma of coffee being freshly brewed.She stopped walking and with the phone on her hand, she looked at the door of her room.Chadwick is probably up and fixing his breakfast.As a morning person, the smell of the coffee woke Adira up with eas
Third Person’s POVAdira sat in front of her office desk.A pile of works is waiting for her.“There’s no rest,” she sighed.But even if the day will be tiring, she found peace as soon as she saw the drink on her table. She wrapped her hand around the cold cup and brought it near to her. Then, she noticed the note above the lid of the drink.[“If you are having a stressful day, never forget to smile.”]That made her smile.“Stressful day, you say,” she murmured before taking the sip on her favorite roasted hazelnut ice latte.The ices melted and the drink taste bland.“Drinking a bland latte gave me a slight stress,” she chuckled.Adira understood why the drink isn’t tasty anymore. Probably, her secretary bought it before something came up and she came late at work.“People do have lot of worries,” she murmured undertone.Problems never stop visiting humanity. They just surpassed the crisis of her husband’s affair rumors, but now, another hurdle came.Looking at the space, Adira rememb
He was distant when we first met.The next days, he avoided me.Suddenly one night, he approached me first with a worried face and offered band-aid for my wound.After that, he talked to me as if we were close.And now, he pretended as if he didn’t know my identity.Maybe these are the reasons why I didn’t hesitate to tell him my secret.; a secret that will happen in five months.However, I did not expect to see him get shocked, or even break a glass.[“You… You will divorce your husband?”]His co-worker came before I could answer his question. He pulled Geoffrey, who might hear an earful nag from his boss, and cleaned the broken glass by himself. Then, I did not see Geoffrey again.‘Did he go home?’ I shrugged my shoulder and drank the last drop of tequila. I paid for my drink from the other bartender who used to serve my order before.“Thank you, ma’am,” the bartender named Vernon said. He has brown eyes, pale skin, sharp jaws and thick brows. He’s pretty handsome too.‘I mean, al
Since I became a married woman, today is the first time that I woke up with my husband beside me. But unfortunately, we're not naked. "So nothing happened between us," I murmured before I sat up. My eyes diverted back to my husband's angelic face. I have seen his expressions: mad, irritated, annoyed and dumbfounded. But my favorite expression of his is this - the calm Chadwick. "I wonder what he looks like when we're doing it." Bothered by these dirty thoughts, I shook my dizzy head. Last night, I had a drink with that tall and handsome bartender named Geoffrey. [ “Well, Actually, there’s a girl I am so interested with. She will divorce her husband after five months. So I have to wait.” ] After his voice has flashback in my memories, I was sure that I lost my consciousness because of his absurdness. I must had drink my beer in one shot last night after I heard his crazy confession. It wasn't the beer that knocked me out though. The tequila I drank before that must be the real cul
Before I married Chadwick, I found out that he was in a messy love triangle.He loves a woman but the woman loves another man. My mistake is that I did not look further about the third man whom I think has nothing to do with me.If only I knew that the third guy is Geoffrey, Isa’s stepbrother, the bar’s handsome bartender and also the nerd guy I met during our college days, then I may have not enter this relationship’s maze.I am not an outsider. All along, I am involve in their intense battle, and I don’t have any idea I’m part of their game.‘It’s too late to regret.’I know that, yet I can’t stop complaining about this sh*t.“Didn’t I warn you enough? Get lost,” my husband told to Geoffrey.Isa and I stood next to each other. Geoffrey is behind Isa, and Chadwick went to my right side and stayed there while glaring at our second visitor this early morning.As confused as I, Isa looked alternately at Geoffrey and to Chadwick.‘Wait a minute. Last night, a woman slapped Geoffrey’s chee
