Mistress on My Husband's Phone Chapter 21
In the morning, I was ready to head to the office. Gillian had already said goodbye and was headed to school with Sofia escorting her to the lobby.During breakfast, I made sure Albert could come to the office today. His voice still sounds weak. It seemed like he was still sick. I felt bad for him. Maybe I should take him to the doctor after the meeting.His assistant mentioned that Albert hadn't seen a doctor because he was scared. Handsome and seemingly imposing, but afraid of doctors. Hah!I walked toward the apartment lobby, and as I was in the elevator, my phone rang. I was surprised to see Troy's name on the screen. Why was he calling this early?"Hey beautiful, are you ready? I'm waiting for you downstairs."What?! Troy was at the lobby?!"I have a driver to take me there. I don't want to trouble you," I politely refused."But I don't take no for an answer, Ms. Johnson," he responded firmly.I sighed heavily. Honestly, I didn't like his pushy nature. But I didn't want to

I felt like I had just been struck by lightning. I just couldn't believe what Uncle Benny had just said. How could I marry a guy I just met yesterday?"Sorry, Uncle Benny, can you repeat that?" I asked, hoping it was just a prank."Well, I, your late father, and Troy's late father were friends since college," Uncle Benny began to explain."Your dad and Troy's dad were successful in building their companies. They had agreed to merge their companies by having their children marry each other. And so, they made a will," Uncle Benny explained in detail.I noticed Troy smiling the whole time."Troy, did you already know about this?" I asked, suspicious."Yes, that's true. I've been keeping an eye on my future wife for a while. Sarah, it's time for you to be happy. After suffering so long with that useless man, I promise to make you happy for the rest of my life. Marry me," Troy said.I was stunned, looking at Troy who was suddenly standing right in front of me. My heart was pounding.

"Are you really dizzy? Why are you so calm?" I touched Albert's forehead with the back of my hand. But his temperature was normal."Stop touching me." He brushed my hand away in irritation."Why are you so grumpy? Did you take the wrong meds?" I tried to joke, even though I saw the seriousness in his face, a face I only just realized was really handsome now that we were close. No wonder so many women were crazy about him.Albert exhaled sharply. Then suddenly, his hazel eyes looked deeply into mine."Joy, why do you never understand my feelings?" he whispered."W-what do you mean?" I started to guess where this conversation was heading.Albert sighed again, longer this time. He looked away for a moment, then locked his eyes with mine. Our gaze was locked. I couldn’t look away from those beautiful hazel eyes."Joy, I've sworn not to lose the love of my life a second time."Albert took my hands and held them. His eyes looked deeply into mine, and I felt an unusual flutter."I've

Albert refused to let me take him home. He got his chauffeur to pick him up from the hospital instead."It's already late; you should go home," Albert said, patting my head.I felt awkward because of his gesture."Thanks for caring about me," he continued, smiling and trying to tease me."Oh, come on! Who's caring? Don't get too full of yourself!" I replied, pretending to be annoyed.Albert laughed again.We parted ways in the hospital lobby. Joshua was already there to pick me up. Suddenly, my phone rang.It was Sofia. I wondered what it was. It was unusual for the house help to call."Hello, Sofia. What's up?""Ma'am... I'm so sorry...""What's wrong, Sofia? Please, tell me quickly!" I panicked, fearing bad news about Gillian, my daughter."Sorry, ma'am. After school, Gillian asked to be taken to her grandmother's house. I tried calling you, but I couldn't reach you. Since Gillian insisted, we went there."I breathed a sigh of relief."Alright, it's okay, Sofia. I’m on m

These past few days, I had a lot on my mind. I was still mulling over the merger with Peterson Group."You really should rethink teaming up with Peterson Group. Don't rush into decisions," Albert said during yesterday's lunch."What do you know about that company?""You and Bradley should really dig into it. Troy's known to play dirty." Albert's words caught me off guard. Was Troy really like that?If he was, I would outright refuse to collaborate with Peterson Group. Regarding the arranged marriage and the company merger, I needed to investigate it myself.As usual, I contacted Carrie, my friend and business partner. She had extensive knowledge of the business world, especially the property sector that I was interested in."Carrie, please gather all the information you can about Peterson Group and send it to me as soon as possible.""Sure thing, Sarah."I hung up with Carrie and called Bradley through the office phone."Hey, Brad, I need an office girl to my office, pronto!"

"Your company is impressive, Troy," I started the conversation."Yes! It's all thanks to my hard work all this time," Troy proudly replied, adjusting his imaginary tie."Sarah, have you made a decision regarding our arranged marriage?""S-sorry! I can't talk about it right now. My company is in trouble." I deliberately baited Troy."What seems to be the problem? How can I help?""It seems like someone wants me to go bankrupt," I replied firmly, observing the response from this overly handsome man."Oh, really? Then I'll send my people to investigate." Troy looked at me with a hint of concern on his face. Only God knows if he was being sincere."It's best not to involve outsiders in your company's internal affairs right now.""What do you mean?" I retorted.Troy just smirked. Could he be referring to Albert? This was such a pain. Why were they both suspicious of each other?"Don't fully trust anyone, Sarah! The business world is cruel. Even those closest to you can be wolves i

"Come on, I'll give you a ride home," Albert offered.With tired steps, I followed Albert who was walking beside me. That earlier incident still had me all tense and a bit emotional.I hopped in and sat in the passenger seat after Albert opened the car door for me. After putting on my seatbelt, Albert revved up the car."Joy, you really scared the heck out of me.""Huh? Scared? Why?" I asked, puzzled."I was scared of losing you....""What's that supposed to mean?" I replied, feeling embarrassed."Do you know? There's this new thing about the Earth not being round," Albert said with a serious face."Huh, seriously? How come I haven't heard about it?" I asked, confused."Because ever since I met you, the Earth became the shape of a heart. Teehee!"Oh, Albert. That was so cheesy! I smiled shyly, too embarrassed to even look at his face. Suddenly, my heart felt all warm. What was this feeling, though?"Joy, you know what the most beautiful night is?""Hmm... the first night?"

I really want to kick them out myself. When are those debt collectors heading there again?Carrie: Today.Me: Alright. Let's meet up there then. Bring all the important documents.Carrie: Got it, boss.While waiting for Joshua in the lobby, I messaged Bradley that I'd only be coming into the office in the afternoon."We're not going to the office. We're heading to Gillian's grandma's house.""Got it, Ma’am," Joshua replied.The car headed towards Derrick's house. It did not take long for us to arrive."We'll park here for now," I said to Joshua as the car stopped a few meters away from Derrick's house.Carrie's car was parked up front. She and some debt collectors must be there now. I had better wait for a while before following her inside.It was only 7 a.m.. So Derrick
