"Now you can go meet Alexander. The twenty-four hours I've given you with him. So never betray me, even if it's just a kiss."
"You must be crazy, Maxime. I am Alexander's wife. You're restricting even a simple kiss? Where is your conscience?" Cesilia asserted each word that came out of her mouth, while adjusting her dress.
"I don't care. Remember, if you so much as touch Alexander, I'll make your life difficult, Cesilia!" Maxime threatened, pointing his index finger at her.
"Fine, that means I can hug my husband." Cesilia confirmed.
Maxime nodded, although he felt hurt knowing Cesilia would be in the arms of another man, even if it was her husband.
"I'll allow that, but not this." He brushed Cesilia's lips with his thumb. "Remember, your whole body belongs to me."
"Whatever, then I'm leaving." Cesilia got up from Maxime's lap. But he stopped her and pulled he

Angry. Jealous. Casandra couldn't quite figure out what she was feeling. What was clear was that her chest felt like it was burning as she saw Alexander and Cesilia being affectionate like this.However, she tried to hide her mixed emotions and gracefully walked towards the wardrobe, ignoring Cesilia's presence as she now sat on Alexander's lap.As if nothing was happening in the room, Casandra began organizing the clothes inside the wardrobe. Her hands were trembling, cold sweat formed on her forehead, and she struggled to contain the tightness in her chest while taking out and moving the items from the suitcase into the wardrobe.Casandra had no intention whatsoever to even glance at Cesilia and Alexander sitting on the edge of the bed. It was as if she didn't have any feelings in her heart.It was as if Alexander and Cesilia were her masters."Please respect Casandra's presenc

"Alexander, I can explain everything to you." Cesilia hurriedly approached the bathroom door as soon as she saw Alexander coming out."What else do you want to explain to me when everything is already clear?" Alexander replied dismissively, walking away without paying attention to Cesilia.He quickly dressed to meet Frans and Robert downstairs. Honestly, Alexander still didn't want to discuss the matter with Cesilia at the moment.However, before Alexander could get his clothes from the wardrobe, Cesilia hugged him from behind."Alex, things are not as you imagine. It's not what you see. Behind those photos, there are many problems I'm facing, and as a husband, you should support me. Give me peace.""Support? Haven't I given enough attention and support all this time?"Alexander turned around, breaking Cesilia's embrace."It's not that...

"How are you, dear?" Lastri asked as soon as she saw Casandra coming with Meri. This was the second time she met her daughter since officially becoming Alexander's wife."I'm fine, Mom." Casandra reached for Lastri's hand and kissed the back of it."How about your father?" She looked at her first love, who was still lying in the hospital bed."Dad is getting better. If his condition continues to stabilize like this, he might be able to go home for outpatient care the day after tomorrow."Casandra pulled the corners of her lips closer to her father. "I hope so, I really miss Dad," she said, glancing back and forth between her mother and father."Your father also misses you, dear. Since he woke up until now, he's been asking about your whereabouts.""I miss Dad too." She held her father's hand, releasing the overwhelming longing she felt."

"Why? You...""No... It's just that...""It's for you. I gave you what my wife needs." He teased Casandra's not-so-sharp nose."Now, let's take a shower. We'll be going downstairs soon. There's a little surprise waiting for you.""Lex!" Casandra cried out softly when Alexander carried her, taking her to the bathroom so she wouldn't hear the commotion downstairs."Thank you for accepting Cesilia's offer, so I'm fine now."Casandra raised an eyebrow. Suddenly, Alexander hugged her tightly, as if she was completely fragile and helpless."Have you found out what Madam is doing out there, Lex?" Casandra mumbled in her heart. Images of Cesilia being affectionate with Maxime crossed her mind. She wanted to tell him, but she didn't want Alexander to think she was trying to create conflict.So, Casandra just nodded and returned Alexander's

"Alexander, what's wrong?""It's nothing. Go to sleep, I have something to do for a moment." Alexander gently touched Cesilia's head, grabbed his pajamas, and moved to sit on the sofa. Cesilia couldn't help but feel that something was amiss with her husband, especially after they had planned to have their wedding night just now. However, after Alexander entered the room, he changed his mind and decided not to proceed. Cesilia didn't know what was wrong, but she realized that she didn't feel any pain at all. Just a little discomfort. When she checked, she also couldn't find any stains on the bedsheet.Her friends had told her that there would be pain and bloodstains after a man entered her body.Not wanting to speculate and think negatively, Cesilia put her nightgown back on before following Alexander. Her steps were slow, just like when she opened the door to the room. She was taken aback when she saw Alexander sitting in the chair, gazing at the ceiling. He didn't seem to be engaged

It was as if nothing was missing from Alexander's life; he didn't even realize how many days had passed without Cesilia's presence. Now, he had Casandra by his side, always there to accompany and take care of all his needs. Casandra even packed everything he needed before going to work, and she always made time to bring him lunch. Alexander was truly enjoying his role as a husband, finally feeling appreciated for his gifts and gestures. Casandra's happy face whenever she received his presents made him feel valued.Unlike with Cesilia, who seemed indifferent to his extravagant gifts, even though he had given her very expensive ones. Cesilia, being financially independent, didn't seem too impressed by the material things Alexander offered. Before this, Cesilia never considered herself lucky to have a husband like Alexander."Lex, do you want me to deliver your lunch or should I bring it to the office?" Casandra asked once Alexander finished his breakfast."Please bring it to the office,

"Finally, you've arrived." Alexander hurriedly closed the document in front of him, signaling Robert to leave the room.Casandra's arrival meant he no longer had time to attend to all the work. It was lunchtime, and he felt even hungrier when he saw Casandra holding the lunchbox in her right hand. Alexander couldn't wait to taste his wife's homemade lunch."That's what happens when you're newlyweds; you always want to be together until I get kicked out like this," grumbled Robert, leaving Alexander's office. He wanted to join them for lunch, but he didn't want to disturb the newlywed couple's intimacy.Alexander chuckled in response to Robert's complaint. "That's why you should marry your sweetheart from back then, so you can experience what we're feeling now.""Just wait for my turn. Prepare a very special gift so that my marriage won't be in vain.""Are you getting married for happiness or for gifts from me?""Whatever your opinion about my marriage, I do expect a significant gift f

"What do you mean by saying you want to divorce Cesilia, Alexander?" Risma stared sharply at Alexander, who seemed to be trying to stay calm to avoid making the situation worse."I want to divorce Cesilia because she's not following the path I've set for her.""What path? Aren't you both in love, and isn't Cesilia still fulfilling her duties as a wife, even if she's busy?""That's what Mami said, but it doesn't align with what she's doing out there.""How so?"Alexander took a deep breath. "Mi, let's talk about this at home. This is the office, and I don't want to mix work and personal matters. I don't want anyone to overhear this argument because it will embarrass Cesilia more than me," Alexander explained.Risma grumbled in frustration, clenching her fists. If it weren't for the fact that Alexander is her son-in-law, she would have dragged him out of the building. She didn't appreciate being asked to leave as a subtle form of eviction."Fine, if that's what you want." Risma stood up
