"What's wrong with you?" I stood by the door and stared at her. "I believe this is my office!"“I know!” Gina said, slowly lowering her heels. She stood up and faced me, still in that haughty posture."What do you want to do in my office?" I asked, leaning against the doorframe.Gina didn't speak. She was walking on the carpet in her red heels. Her eyes looked curiously at the filing cabinet next to her desk. Then she wiped the dust off the filing cabinet with her fingers."See, you're like this dust!" She pointed her dusty index finger at me. "You're redundant to this office, to Ron!"I looked at her expressionlessly, wondering what she would say next. Is this where she's gonna blow the lid off a secret she's been keeping for a long time? Will she?"I think you'd better go home and be a housewife. You don't know anything!" Her mouth began to fire like a machine gun. She always speaks in an aggressive manner."I don't know why you're suddenly involved in this case, but I can tell you
His Perfect Wife Strikes Back 17 My Father
There was a pungent smell of disinfectant in the ward, and the bed was surrounded by a white curtain. Out of the corner of my eye, a small white dot appeared. I guess the nurse put a piece of medical gauze on the end of my eye. At least my body doesn't feel any obvious pain. I guess I just scratched myself on the glass, and that hurt was nothing to me."Are you going to kill the apple?" My voice was dry and hoarse as I spoke.Frade was sitting in a chair by the bed. He stared down at the red apple in his hand, as if he were dissecting a corpse. The peel of the apple is covered with white flesh. I guess he's not very good at peeling.I was surprised that he dared to appear in the hospital. Isn't he worried about my husband seeing us together? Although it is probable that my husband will not come to see me. How did he know I was in the hospital so quickly?I don't have a cell phone, and I can't see the exact time, but I'm sure I won't be in the hospital for more than half a day. At leas
His Perfect Wife Strikes Back 18 Why Don't You Divorce Him?
Frade drove me to the beach and we walked side by side on the beach. The beach here is so remote that few people pass by. At this moment, the sun is slowly setting to the west. The orange sunlight is aspersed on the sea surface along with the waves, and it is like a thin gold gauze to sway.We were silent for a long time. We walked slowly along the beach on the soft sand, like a real couple. Suddenly, Frade put his arm around my waist from behind, and we stopped at the same time.He looked at me deeply, his green eyes showing a look that was hard to guess. He touched my cheek lightly, his sexy lips parted slightly.The sea breeze was gently blowing over the beach, and he slowly bowed his head and kissed my lips. The kiss was tender and sincere. I didn't say no. I welcomed him when his tongue opened my teeth.It's been a long time since I've tasted a kiss. I've even forgotten what it's like to be kissed. He let a little fire appear in my original dead heart, let my original cold body f
His Perfect Wife Strikes Back 19 The World of Fancy
I lowered my head and hid my body behind Frade's clothes. He gave me a curious look, and it was clear to him that I was running from someone. So he whispered something to the restaurant manager in a kimono, who then led us in the other direction.Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Jenny talking to a man. Luckily, she didn't see me. She and the man went in the opposite direction."Who is that woman?" Frade sat on his tatami, his upper body standing upright, with a languid nobility."A clerk from my husband's company!" I took a sip from my white ceramic teacup. From the wooden sliding doors, we could vaguely see people passing by, but at least no one outside could see me in the room.That was a relief, and I'm still worried about being caught with Frade by someone I know. The feeling of cheating bothered me. Frade seemed to guess what I was thinking. His hand crossed the table and stroked the back of my hand."I told you. You don't have to worry about anything around me. I promise no on
His Perfect Wife Strikes Back 20 The Masquerade
The lights above my head illuminate the dance floor, and the light and ambiguous dance music encircles the men and women like a soft and smooth ribbon. I took Frade's hand and was nervous because I hadn't danced with a man in a long time. Even after I married Ron, he rarely took me to parties like this."Follow my steps, slowly!" Frade pressed against my back. His whisper, caught in the dance music, floated into my ear like a thin cotton wool. One of his hands caressed my lower abdomen, and even the slightest touch from him made me feel like an electric shock. My arms were immediately covered with bumps.I'm slowly getting back to the way I felt when I went to prom in college. A yellow light lingered for a few seconds on Frade's half-masked face. I looked up at him. On the other side of the mask were his distinct features.He had deep, tender green eyes, a tall nose, and a thin mouth. Half of his exposed face was so charming. The other half of his face was covered with a silver mask,
His Perfect Wife Strikes Back 21 Wipe The Fear Off Your Face!
Frade drove the car to the address I gave him. He seemed to know the city well because he drove near my home without even using GPS. My old home, to be exact.Through the window, I could see the pitch-black asphalt road and the trees swaying in the night wind. The sign in front of me became clearer and clearer. I looked up and saw the words -- Green Manor.Green was my family name, and I knew that my home was not far away. I suddenly felt cold all over and even a little queasy. When the fear returned, I told Frade to stop the car."Are you all right?" Frade touched my forehead. "You're so cold!""I'm fine!" I took off his coat and took my old clothes out of the bag and put them on. I can't go home in such bright clothes. It's against the rules."Eva, can you tell me what you're doing?" Frade grimaced as he grabbed my hand that was pushing the door open. "Don't leave me!""Frade, I have to walk the rest of the way!" I turned my head away from him, but his heavy snoring could still be h
His Perfect Wife Strikes Back 22 I Hate You!
The white light in the study was blinding, and I knew my father was waiting for me in a chair behind the desk. The wrinkles on his face grew deeper with the passage of time, but his cruel heart did not change at all!The closer I got to the table, the more cold I felt.When I was a child, I once accidentally broke into my father's study for fun. It's his private space for work and reading. No one can set foot inside without his permission. But that time I just forgot the rule. When he found that I had broken into his private study, his face was very cold. Just a look, I was scared to the spot.His eyes were like those of a lion staring at a smaller animal. It was a look of condescension, disdain, and ferocity. He could easily kill all the animals in front of him if he wanted to.Finally, my father asked Lady Mary to take me to the lecture room, which was reserved for people who had made mistakes. My father punished me by making me naked and kneel before the Madonna to confess my sins.
His Perfect Wife Strikes Back 23 Meet Gina Alone
Once again, I fell into a death-like state. My body was as heavy as soaked cotton. In the darkness, a force was pulling me down. My mind wandered between the unreal and the real, and I was sure I could hear voices in my ears, and I could even see a tall figure moving in front of me.But when I opened my eyes to see the world, I realized that what had just happened was an illusion. But Frade was standing right in front of me, just like what I had seen in my dream.I went back to the hotel where we were alone for the first time."You're awake!" His voice whispered in my ear, a hand covering my forehead. "You had a fever!"I turned my head away and looked at him carefully. His green eyes were clear for the moment, and his chin was surrounded by green stubble. I want to say something to thank him for taking care of me when I was sick. But I'd rather ask him another question."Do men like to tame everything, especially women?" I stared at him, wondering if he thought I was a woman he'd nev
