SAPPHIRE’S POV.“I was just starting it over when he called me to turn it in. I don’t know what to tell him. God!” “Hold on, it’s just a project, right? You can do it again, can’t you?” I finally butted in and they both turned to look at me.“Just a project?” She creased her brows and palmed her forehead.“I should not be surprised that this is coming from a person like you, but I would really appreciate it if you would just stay out of this!” She retorted angrily.“A person like me?” “Come on, Tina. She just asked a question. You should not attack her that way.”“Yes, a person like you!” She ignored Jay and said to me.“You have no idea how much effort I have spent in doing that project since last month, and you don’t know what would become of me if your husband finds out!”“Okay, I will not get offended by that. But, can’t you just let him know what is going on instead of… panicking like this? I understand that it costs you time and effort, but it is not your fault it got stolen t

AUTHOR’S POV.“I… I don’t drink alcohol,” Sapphire stuttered and shook her head as one of the team members handed a glass of drink to her while they were at the team dinner.“No, don’t be boring, please!” Tina exclaimed, snatched the drink from the man, and gave it to Sapphire who collected it unwillingly.“One shot…” Jay hit the table gently as he drawled and the rest joined him.“One shot! One shot! One shot!”Sapphire closed her eyes shut and gulped down the drink immediately. “Fuck, this tastes so horrible!” She snorted in irritation and everyone laughed.“Let’s spin the bottle, everyone!” Tina banged the table and Sapphire creased her brows.“Game of truth is the first game we play on team dinners. So, we spin the bottle and whoever it stops at is answering a question. Failure to do so is drinking two shots of drink,” Tina stated and Sapphire nodded her head.It was not like the game was foreign to her, but two shots of drink? She barely just drank that one and her throat still

DANIEL’S POV.I lay there for a while and when I did not feel any movement from her again, I tapped her back.I moved my lips from hers and moved her gently on the bed beside me.I stood up and watched the woman who was already sleeping and snoring and shook my head. Apart from the fact that the sight of her drunken attitude was stressful, I still found it cute.I wonder how she would feel if she woke up tomorrow and the events of tonight flooded her memories.As a dramatic lady that she is, my wife would make the biggest deal out of it.I knelt on the bed beside her, and pulled off her shoe, and then trailed my eyes down her body.It would not be proper if she slept this way, would it?Whatever. I was her husband, was I not?I began to unbutton her shirt slowly and when I was down, I pulled it off her gently, leaving the tiny singlet on her.I proceeded to take off her skirt, leaving her with only her pants, and then got out of the bed.She did not even flinch while I did that. What

DANIEL’S POV.I stepped out of my office as I adjusted my tie and then stopped abruptly when I heard the sound of a notification. I checked my phone and then looked around when I found out it was not from me.I walked to Sapphire’s table, and picked up the phone that was lying there, and pressed the home button.She had gotten a message.I was about to drop the phone when my eyes caught the message and I clicked on it immediately.“Is it just me or do you really seem to be taking me for a joke?”My brows pulled together as I read and thenI tilted my head. Thankfully, her phone was not password protected so I began to read through the messages from the person.The kind of air that hit me immediately made me feel so cold as goosebumps covered my body.Just when I thought that this person had not been saying anything lately, I found out that he had been doing the same to my wife.I curled my other fist tightly into a ball as I saw the pictures of her that they had sent to her and the thr

AUTHOR’S POV.“What are you saying? Are you drunk?” Liam asked.“Just listen to me and never get married.”“You still have issues with your wife?” “Yes, and now I am getting to know her true side. Don’t get married to anyone, or you will die. Women are not nice people,” Daniel hissed.“This is one of the reasons I don’t like being friends with married people. What is my business with that by this time late at night? What if I was with a woman?”“You can fuck as many bitches as you want. Never marry any of them.”“Hey, Scram!” Liam hissed.“Will you come over tomorrow?” Daniel asked.“Get lost. I am busy.”~~~“What?”“I am telling you to never get married,” Sapphire replied to Hilda.“What are you saying?”“Men are scum and you should listen to me.”“Please. I don’t need problems like this in my life. If you have issues with your husband, sort it out in your house. Don’t call me.”“You are so crazy and I hate the day I met you!”Hilda laughed and shook her head. “You are so dramatic!
