The first step to revenge

"Mr. Rey, then I'll excuse you." Venna said goodbye; she knew not to disturb the lovers.

"Venna wait," Carissa wanted to stop Venna; to be honest, it felt very embarrassing and uncomfortable being alone in Rey's room.

"Bella." Rey stopped Carissa and held Carissa's hand gently, making Carissa's heart beat even more erratically.

"Let Vena go," Rey begged.

"But, m-me," Carissa felt her lips stiffen; she wasn't sure what to say in front of Rey.

. "I know, this must feel foreign to you, but you know, every day, you will be here accompanying me to work, or at least we will meet to let go," Rey smiled when telling her the habits she used to do with Bella. Carissa, who heard that, smiled faintly. The love story of Bella and Rey was very sweet; it's just that fate was so cruel, Bella actually died, and now there is only Bella's body filled with Carissa's soul.

"I know this must feel foreign to you, and you may be uncomfortable, but please give me a chance to be able to bring back your memories, honey." Rey gently stroked Carissa's fingers, something that Carissa had never gotten from Viren since they got married.

"Okay, do it." "I'll try to remember it too," said Carissa.

Rey smiled; it seemed that there was a glimmer of hope that Carissa gave, making Rey excited again. "Thanks Bella," Rey said.

Carissa smiled; she received lots of sweet treats from Rey, making her compare her fate with Viren's. Viren is indeed romantic, but that was when they were still in love. After they got married, there was no more sweet treatment that Viren gave, and even Viren openly looked reluctant to be with Carissa.

"Why are you crying?" asked Rey as she rubbed Carissa's cheek. Carissa was deeply moved by Rey's warm treatment, so that, without realizing it, she shed tears.

"I'm just moved; do you treat me like this every day?" she asked.

Rey pulled her lips back and smiled at her lover's question. "Dear Arabella, even every time we meet, I will always spoil you." Rey kissed both of Carissa's hands.

"Arabella, how lucky you are to be loved this sincerely by a man like Rey," Carissa thought.

"But if it continues like this, I'm afraid that I will fall in love with Rey later," Carissa thought worriedly.

Carissa, or what everyone knows as Bella, hasn't started working yet. Rey is still giving Carissa a chance to get used to and re-learn the world of modeling.

"Bella, can we practice first?" Vena asked Carissa to practice first.

"Okay," said Carissa. "The camera lens was ready to take a picture of Carissa, and Carissa started to style skillfully. For some reason, Carissa felt as if she was used to being in front of the camera. Is it possible that Carissa entered Arabella's body?

"Wow, Bella, I didn't think you were still very good at shooting my camera," praised the photographer.

"Is it true?" asked Carissa in disbelief, even though at first she wasn't confident enough.

"That's right; I'm not lying," the photographer replied earnestly.

Rey saw everything. She was grateful because her boyfriend was able to recover little by little. When Rey was about to approach Bella, suddenly someone took her arm.

"Ellen?" she whispered.

"Why? You look surprised like that?" she asked.

Rey snorted in annoyance, and she brushed Ellen's hand away. "Why did you come?" asked Rey with a look of disapproval.

"Why? am I not allowed to come to my husband's office alone?" Ellen asked back, making Rey laugh sarcastically.

"Are you sick? Didn't you say yourself that this marriage is just a status, nothing more?" Rey said, imitating what Ellen said at the time.

"Tell me honestly, what are you doing here?" asked Rey again; she was still very sure if there was something Ellen wanted.

"All right, dad asked us to come to the house, so we look like a real couple; I want us to go in one car," said Ellen, finally saying what her intention was to come. Ellen's father seemed to want to see the state of his daughter's household.

"Okay, you go ahead; I have to take care of my business first," Rey said, giving orders for Ellen to go to the car first, although she was actually too lazy to go with Ellen.

"Okay, don't take too long," Ellen said, and she left Rey.

Rey herself left after making sure Ellen was out of sight. Rey asked Venna to take Carissa or Bella to her room.

"Bella, come with me for a bit." Venne took Carissa without explaining where she was going.

"Why to Rey's room?" asked Carissa, surprised.

"Master Rey said, you have something to talk about, you come in." Venna opened the door and let Carissa enter.

"Sorry, honey, I made it difficult for you to ask you to come here," Rey said after Carissa entered.

"No problem, what's the matter?" she asked.

"I have to go with Ellen, my wife," Rey was a little uncomfortable when she said Ellen's name, especially when she said that Ellen was his wife.

"Ellen? "The woman who has destroyed my life, now that she is still living well, after she took Viren and caused me an accident, now she can come to Rey as she pleases?" Carissa thought she was so vengeful with Ellen.

"Where are you going?" she asked.

"Ellen's father wants to see us, so we have to show that we are okay," Rey explained.

"Okay, go, I don't mind; if you don't have anything to talk about, I'll go now," said Carissa, deliberately showing that she didn't like hearing that Rey was going with Ellen.

Carissa started to walk, wanting to leave immediately, but Rey immediately grabbed Carissa's wrist.

"Bella, wait." Rey held Carissa's hand.

"Awww!" cried Carissa.

"Bella, what are you doing?" asked Rey worriedly, because Carissa suddenly held her head and groaned in pain.

"My head hurts, awww!" Carissa kept holding her head, making Rey even more worried.

"We'll see. Who will Rey choose, me or Ellen?" Carissa thought about smiling.
