But before I knew it, she threw a mug at my head, claiming that I was rubbing my marriage to Estefan in her face." "Okay, that is so cruel," Esmeralda exclaimed. "How can a person be so wicked?

RHEA'S POVAfter the two brothers left the dining room, I decided to call it a day too since I didn't get time to rest after my flight from London. I was about to announce that I was leaving but Esmeralda beat me to it. "Why don't we have some ice cream before we go to bed?" she suggested with a huge smile on her face."That sound like a good idea. I've been craving something sweet for some time now but someone refused to let me have any." Anna's mom glared at Andrea as she spoke."I was only looking after your health." Andrea defended himself. "This once won't hurt." Anna joined in as Esmeralda ordered some attendants to get everyone a bowl of Ice cream each. As much as I wanted to join them, I couldn't because I had a terrible headache and it was already time to take my medication. "I think I'll pass," I said, gaining everyone's attention.

ESTEFAN'S POVI stood at the bottom of the bed with my jaw clenching as the doctor check on Rhea. When I got to the pool earlier, the sight of Damien touching her made my vision turn red. At that moment, all I wanted to was kill that idiot for putting his filthy hands on her. As I yanked his body off her, I noticed she was in pain and slipping out of consciousness, so the only I could think about was her safety. I would deal with Damien later as long I was assured that she is fine. "Doctor, is she okay?" Esteban asked from beside me.The doctor stood up from the bed and turned to us. "She has a slight headache concussion, but she will be fine after a lot of rest." She packed her equipment in her bag. "She will have reoccurring headaches for some time, so don't let her do any physical activities. In a few days, she will be completely fine." She bowed and walked out.I walked close to her and resumed the space the doctor was occupying. With my fingers, I tuck the strand of hair sticki

RHEA'S POVWaking up to a throbbing headache, I groaned in pain when I tried to turn my head and I also realized my head was resting on a hard surface. With my eyes still closed, I used my hand to feel the hard pillow my head was resting on only for it to be moving up and down in a smooth rhythm. "If you wanted to feel my body so badly, all you need to do is tell me," Estefan's deep voice reached my ears, making the hard pillow vibrate beneath my head. I forced my eyelids apart, trying to ignore the banging pain in my head as I looked to see Estefan staring down at me whose head was resting on his naked chest."Are you okay?" He asked with concern laced in his voice. "No." I shook my head. "I have a banging headache." I placed my hand on my head, closing my eyes in pain.Estefan sat up, pulling me close to text my head on his chest again. "The doctor said the headache would stop once you rest properly.""The doctor?" I scrunched my eyebrows. "What happened?" "The hit you took with

RHEA'S POVThe book in my hand was long forgotten as I was sprawled on the couch in Estefan's study, staring at him who was busy working on his computer. The way his muscle bulged out in his white shirt, threatening to tear the fabric apart whenever he moved was a sight for the sore eyes.I also find it funny how he scrunched his eyebrows and looked back and forth between the computer and the papers stacked on his desk when he got confused. And when he gets frustrated, he would run his hand through his hair, giving him that sexy look that would make any woman drool."Is it me you are reading, or the book in your hand?" He glanced up at me.My eyes widened as I picked up the book lying on my lap and put it to my face. "Of course, it's the book I'm reading." I chuckled nervously."Is that why the book is upside down?" Taking a proper look at the book in front of me, I noticed I was indeed holding it upside down. "I enjoy it more when it's upside down." I lied. He didn't say anything i

ESTEFAN'S POVHer eyes widened at my question and the wheels in her head began to turn, searching for an answer that would get her off the hook. "Oh, that." She scratched the back of her neck. "We were just joking, it's nothing you should waste your precious time on." She smiled as she pushed the door open and rush into the room.Following right behind her, I asked, "If you were given a chance to switch husbands with Anna, would you do it?" She stopped in her tracks and turned to me. "What?" "You heard me, so just answer the question," I said with my face void of emotions but deep down inside of me, I was praying for her to give me the answer I wanted to hear. "Do you want the truth?" she asked, folding her arms."Yes." I swallowed hard as I waited for her answer."If you asked me that question some weeks ago, I would have said yes," she replied which caused me to feel a pang of hurt in my chest. "Why?" I demanded. At least I should know the reason I would have gotten rejected.
