Chapter 2

The next day when Felicia woke up, Edward was no longer by her side. Silence began to fill the girl’s heart again.

Edward was a great man. He was good at business, and he was also good at pampering women both in terms of material and play in bed. Even though Felicia’s status as a wife was a secret, Edward treated her very well and with special care.

As she was daydreaming, Felicia’s cell phone rang. Diana’s name, aka her office mate, appeared on the screen.

“What is this girl calling me so early?” Felicia asked herself.

“Hello, Diana. What are you calling me so early for?” Diana asked the girl.

“What’s so early. Didn’t you look at the clock?” replied Diana in her trademark squeaky voice.

Hearing Diana’s words, Felicia reflexively looked at the small clock on the small bedside table.

“What, my God. Seriously. I’m late today and this is the first time I’ve ever been late. Damn, it’s all Edward’s fault if only he didn’t have to lust and make my waist fall off. I wouldn’t have gotten up late this morning!” grumbled Felicia to herself.

“Aaah, I’m already late. Then I might as well not go to the office,” said Felicia.

“No, don’t. You have to go to work. It’s an important day. Mr. Steven has gone to great lengths to get the tender submission seat at the Atlanta Company today.”

“What? Atlanta!” screeched Felicia.

The girl was not surprised now. Atlanta was her own husband’s company. How could she submit a project to her own husband? Because Felicia knew that Edward never relied on his employees. He was always directly involved in every project that the company undertook. Including this tender, Edward would definitely intervene as well.

“Yes, isn’t that great. Mr. Steve said, you are the one who keeps the data as well as the blueprints of the materials we will present. So let’s hurry up and get ready. And yes... you shouldn’t come to the office. Mr. Steve and I are going straight to the Atlanta Company. So you go straight there too. Ahhh Oh my God, I can’t wait to see Mr. Edward in person. He must be even more handsome up close. Well, see you Felicia.”

Diana hung up the phone before Felicia could answer. She groaned in pain as she was forced to rush out of bed to leave.

Felicia’s whole body ached, especially in her intimate area. I don’t know how many times Edward had tortured the girl last night. What was clear was that every time Felicia had sex with Edward, the next day she had to prepare to become a slow-walking grandmother.

The Atlanta Company is a leading company that has recently become a hot topic of conversation. Since the control was taken over by Edward, the company has grown rapidly. It made reliable businessmen compete with each other just to become the company’s business partner.

Being one of the invited guests to make a presentation and submit a tender was a tremendous honor for the company Felicia worked for. Clearly, this was a very good move. If she wins, Felicia’s company name will be recognized.

But for the more discerning among us, the presence of Felicia’s company should be a big question. How can a small company like this compete for projects with other competitors who are far above their level? Isn’t there something special.

“You’re finally here, let’s hurry up. The meeting’s about to start!” said Diana as she flanked Felicia’s arm, as soon as the girl arrived.

It felt a little strange. This was the first time Felicia had come to her husband’s office in the three years they had been married. You can imagine how great the couple was for being able to hide their marital status for about three years.

The two girls walked towards the elevator. But a few moments later, a guard stopped them.

“Sorry, you can’t use this elevator. Because this is a special elevator for company shareholders and important people,” said the man.

Diana was annoyed by the man’s words. It was as if the man was telling her that Diana and Felicia were unimportant.

“What do you mean, huh? You built this elevator. Do you think you’re important too, huh?” Diana asked the man back and of course in an unpleasant tone.

“Sorry ladies. But I’m just doing my job,” the man replied.

“You...!”

Felicia tapped Diana lightly on the shoulder, then pulled her back slightly. It would be dangerous if she didn’t restrain Diana immediately. She feared that there would be an incident that would bring a bad name to the Escape company. After all, Felicia knew. Diana had a lot of pride. Diana might be a little foolish. But that girl would never give in to any fuss for the sake of her pride.

“Never mind, let’s not make things worse. Let’s use another elevator,” Felicia pleaded gently.

“I think your friend is wiser, missy.” It was obvious that the man meant Felicia.

Diana intended to give in and go to the other elevator. But suddenly a cold aura stopped Diana and Felicia from proceeding.

Felicia was used to it and knew where this aura came from. But Diana certainly didn’t know.

“Hey, Felicia. Do you feel a cold aura here,” Diana whispered.

Felicia scratched behind her ear a little awkwardly. If Diana knew that this aura came from the arrival of Felicia’s husband, then the world would be abuzz.

“I don’t know, maybe they turned up the ac too loud in here,” Felicia replied nonchalantly.

“You two can take the elevator with me.” A heavy baritone voice, distinctive and very authoritative. It made every woman’s hearing addicted to hearing it again.

Diana and Felicia turned around. As a result, they were right. Her husband, or Mr. Edward, was there.

“Oh my God, Felicia. Pinch me, I must be dreaming,” Diana whispered to Felicia.

It was still unclear who was actually dreaming. What was clear was that Edward was standing right in front of Felicia. And let’s not forget that the rumored actress who was rumored to be close to him was there, flanking his arm possessively.

The couple who were now facing each other looked like strangers who never knew each other.

“Gosh, I should have been pinched and woken up from my dream. The trials of being a secret wife are incredible,” Felicia muttered to herself.
