As the party keeps going, she goes with the flow wherever her groom takes and introduces her to every guest they meet along the way while flashing her sweet fake smile. Although her groom was acting gentlemanly guiding her as they were greeting and thanking their guests, his sarcastic and rude treatment is still dominating.
"I'm quite surprised with this sweet and submissive bride I am with today. Makes me want to have suspicions what games are you playing?" Trying not to mind his words, she kept on exchanging pleasantries and greeting visitors they meet along the way.
"I wonder if the princess has loss her tongue now." She heard him state that made her glare at him.
"Does the idea of being married to me disgust you that much?" She couldn't help to exclaim.
"Don't act as if you don't feel the same." She heard him sourly retorted.
Oh gosh, what kind of relationship do
"Can I ask where are we going now?" She couldn't help to ask as they were in the car while he was he driving. She doesn't understand but the wedding reception is just ten minutes drive going to the airport but he has been driving for half an hour now. It was around 12 midnight when the wedding party was over. She was informed by her Mom that their honeymoon will be held in the Maldives and they will stay there for a week. She said it was all expense by her father as a gift to them. She has never been to the Maldives and she knew it is one of the topmost honeymoon destinations in the world. "My pad." He shortly replied as cold as ice. "In your pad?" She parroted feeling puzzled. "Sorry to burst your bubble wife but we don't have a honeymoon. We don't need it." That made her look at him and gave him a questioning look. "What am I going to tell my parents?" She asks nonchalantly not wanting to sound disappointed. "
"Take this." Her eyes automatically went through the cards and a car key her husband placed on the coffee table."Use these credit cards for shopping and buying all the things you need. This is the key to my other car and I'll let you use it while the car I ask my secretary to buy for you doesn't arrive yet. You will receive an allowance of $100, 000 monthly and I have opened a bank account where you will directly receive it." She got stunned for a moment but she find time to composed herself in an instant and not give him a chance to notice it. She cocked her brow and gave him a taunting smile after hearing what she have said."Just when I thought I was a housemaid than your wife. Well, I guess there's a lot of perks and advantages of being your wife uh? Didn't know I could have a huge salary for acting a housemaid." She stated sarcastically."You married a Saldivar so I will give you the satisfaction
It was late at night and she just finished a good piece she was inspired to paint. Feeling thirsty, she went out of her room to go to the kitchen and get herself something to drink before she sleeps. After taking a glass of water in the kitchen, she was about to go upstairs and go back to her room when her attention got caught by someone in the dark living room. Turning on the lampshades located at the corner of the living room, she found Zeke sitting on the floor vomiting. Feeling worried, she immediately walk towards him to attend to him."Are you okay?" She couldn't help to ask him.She was not sure if he heard her or he just never bother to answer. He just looked at her before he wipe his lips using the dorsal side of his hand. His eyes were glassy and bloodshot. Based on the redness of his face and his smell, he seemed drunk."Are you drunk?" She still asks the obvious.To
It was the weekend and she was surprised because her husband stayed at home. She wonders what has he eaten to make him stay at the pad today. She sleeps late last night because she finished a painting she was inspired to make so she woke up late. She even got stunned when she saw her husband watching sports channel in the living room. She got surprised when she saw food in the breakfast nook when she went to the kitchen. Seems like the jerk of her husband cooked breakfast. There were fried eggs, sausages, omelets, toasted bread, and sliced fruits.Wait, did he cook for her? No way! For she knows these are just his leftovers. When she tried tasting the food, she just can't believe it tasted good. Funny because it was so evil for her to think the food will taste bad knowing how annoying and wicked her husband is. As a daily routine, she starts doing the dishes, wiping surfaces, picking up the clutter, mopping where necessary, vacuum cleaning the carpe
It was Friday night when she was picked up by the driver to attend the annual fundraising gala that is being held by the Saldivar Corporation. Wearing a Black backless mermaid sexy long evening dress that is made of crepe and lace, black stilettoes, and a silver small clutch bag, she felt like she was a different person.Not that she was not used to attending this kind of party or wearing this kind of dress, it's about acting formal and prim knowing she was now carrying the name of Saldivar. She was now aware that the Saldivar's are a prominent and respectable family not just because they were rich but they were also powerful and being the young Mistress of the Saldivar, married to the heir of the Saldivar group of Companies Ezekiel Saldivar, she have to be cautious and careful knowing every step and action she takes is being watched especially in attending social parties and gatherings like this.
"What is a beautiful woman standing alone here without an escort? I'm Aaron by the way." said the tall and masculine man with smoky blue eyes with a smile on his lips.The man was handsome and looked friendly. He had this flirtatious and confident look which she don't like. Although he has good looks that some girls might not dare to ignore but she was not one of them, she just hates the way he looks at her. She can't remember meeting this man earlier. He must have arrived late at the party, she guessed." I'm Andra." She replied.Out of politeness, she manage to smile back and held his hand for a handshake. She couldn't help to raise a brow when she felt him press her palm while giving her that small little smirk."What a beautiful name for a beautiful lady. A pleasure to meet you, my lady." To her surprise, he kissed her hand not breaking his eye contact with her and that made he
When her mother-in-law called one time and asked her if she want to participate in Charity events she was helping with, she gladly agreed without hesitations. Helping doesn't only strengthens personal values, it also makes her feel good as a human being so she never slips an opportunity to help and volunteer whenever she gets a chance to. Besides, she doesn't do anything in the pad beyond painting and doing house chores so she gets bored all the time. She gladly volunteered when her mother-in-law told her she was participating in a helping program at one of the local homeless centers in the nearest town. She helped give clothes and bags of non-perishable groceries, she also helped in preparing meals and serving them. The program was also giving counsel on where to get social services and giving some ideas about first aid. You can see happiness and appreciation for the people they helped. They looked so grateful for that simple kind of help they were providing and they d
Zeke brought them to one of the most beautiful fine dining restaurants in the town after he pick them up from the center. It is an elegant, romantic garden restaurant that serves a fusion of expressive French and Japanese cuisine with modern, minimalistic interiors. The place has a good ambiance that provides the perfect setting for a fancy and elegant dinner and it seems a good place to relax after a tiring day. This is the first time she will dine out with Zeke's Mom and she was glad to dine with her after a tiring and worthwhile day of community work. To her wonderment, Zeke pulled out a chair for her right after he pull out a chair for his Mom before he settled and seated himself beside her. That gesture made her brow raise. Of course, he would act gentlemanly in front of his mother, she thought. She ordered Pork Katsu, harumaki, and vegetable tempura wit
When she woke up, her body was sore she couldn't even move in the bed. Her eyes roam around and realized she was not in her room. She rubbed her eyes hoping she was dreaming but she was not. Her naked body was being covered by the blanket and the sensitive part between her legs was indeed sore and a bit aching. She tried to arise in the bed but she only winced when she felt the pain down there. Her legs are still cramping and her breasts are a bit stinging especially her nipples. She pulled the blanket and cover her naked body. A gasp escaped her mouth when she saw the blood stain on the bed sheet- the evidence of what happened last night. Seeing Zeke all in his naked glory sleeping so comfortably in the bed, she couldn't help to jerk her eyes away from him. It was five o'clock in the morning, and the sun was not rising yet. She forced hersel
They tried kayaking and snorkeling that day. It was almost dark when they come back. The first thing she did when they came back to the suite is to take a bath and pamper herself in the tub. Soaked her body in warm water, spends almost an hour in the tub then shower for like fifteen minutes. She changed into a white maxi dress and let her long hair loose. She was expecting that they will have dinner at one of the restaurants near the beach but when she came out of the room, her attention was caught by the sound of a violin being played somewhere on the porch. Being intrigued, her feet brought her there, and saw Zeke waiting for her- all dressed up with his loose long sleeve cream button shirt and white capris beach pants. To her surprise, the porch was magnificently decorated for a romantic candlelight dinner with a man playing the violin and a uniformed crew holding a bottle of wine in his hands. "Hey..." she call him showing her presence trying to make herself calm and relaxed. She
"Good morning!" Zeke enthusiastically greeted her the moment he saw her enter the kitchen."G-Good morning!" she replied stunned by his presence in the kitchen.He was wearing an apron while setting the table. It looks like he just finished cooking and now preparing the food he just cooked. She never expected to see him in the kitchen because he has usually gone to work every time she woke up. She suddenly remembers that it's Saturday and he has no work in the office during weekends."I've cooked us breakfast. Come on, let's eat." To her surprise, he comes near her and gives her a peck on the lips.She was stunned for a moment and stared at him, it seemed he didn't mind her reaction because the next thing she knew he pulled out a chair for her and hand her a bouquet of tulips that she doesn't know where he took from. He must have hidden it when he saw her towering down the stairs.
It has been a very busy and tiring day. Friday is one of the normal days she often chooses to volunteer in charity events, she manages to do it twice a month as much as possible. Feeding program and relief giving for the people impacted by typhoon Vinta was held at the center that day. The activity went well and it's a good thing they manage to give enough food and grocery bags for the victims. Helping and participating in this kind of event makes her feel worthwhile as a human being so she never lets an opportunity pass whenever she has time to participate. After bidding goodbye to her colleagues, she was about to leave when she caught the sudden presence of Zeke in the parking lot leaning on his Lamborghini car."What are you doing here?" She told him."Isn't it obvious wife? I'm picking you up." He replied with that attractive smirk he usually give her.She would understand if his Mom was around unlike the first time he pick her up but she was not
After the night they had dinner at her parent's house, she started avoiding Zeke. He goes out early for work and she wakes up in the morning without him but often prepares her breakfast which he doesn't usually do. She try busying herself by volunteering in charity events and finding inspiration to start new paintings to avoid him so they can seldom see each other but she always failed because he often come home early in the evening. His kind and caring treatment was still there and he had been acting this odd since the last time they had dinner in her parent's house. She was fine with them not eating together before but it's kinda odd because he always comes home early and eats dinner with her. She has a feeling he is intentionally doing it. She realized that the more she avoids him, the more he makes efforts to be with her.During dinner is the time they usually see each other but today, she never expected him to come home ear
He could still remember their first night in the hacienda when they needed to share a room in his parent's house. He has to admit he got mesmerized when he saw her wearing a skimpy nightie. He drool over her sexy cleavage and slender pair of legs so he resorted to teasing and upsetting her. She was cute when mad and when her cheeks are flushing, he finds her even more attractive.Being a jerk, he conceals that attraction to anger and violence so he ends up drastically grabbing and kissing her fully on the lips. She tried stopping and pushing him but he kept on kissing her roughly trying to punish her, trying to intimidate her. Tasting her lips was like being fall and lost in a deep trance he couldn't seem to stop. They were so addicting he can't get enough of them. He must admit he had gone too much so when she pushed him hard to get away from him, he got stunned as if he lost himself for a moment. He didn't know what went to hi
It was a marriage for convenience, alright. He never want this from the very start but he was left with no choice. It was actually a promised wedding that was supposed to be between the descendant of his grandfather and his best friend Bienvenido Saavedra. Since the two were both blessed with an only child and both were sons, they decided to pass the agreement to their grandchild. When Don Buenvenido Saavedra passed away, his grandfather void the agreement and never try to insist on the arranged marriage since his dear friend was gone already. But when Don Gerardo Saavedra's Company got into big financial trouble, he use that agreement to gain help from his grandpa. Feeling pleased his grandpa never hesitated to promise help just as long the arranged marriage will happen and the two families will finally unite.He was against of this marriage but his grandfather manipulate him by using his inheritance as a threat. Not that he was scared to get poor,
Since he was young, he has become aware that he will be fixed to be married to a chosen woman for her. It was actually a promised wedding that has been long overdue between the two families involved. His late father and his grandfather never failed to keep on reminding him of that as he grows old. When he reached his teens and started to get interested in women, he never got into a serious relationship not until he met Nicole Saltzman. Nicole is a smart and very attractive woman. She was practical and confident. She was this type of girl who knows what she wants in life and knows how to get them. She used to be a flight attendant at a big Airline Company that is owned by his friend and he met her on one of his friend's private planes and started to flirt with her at first. It started with a one-night stand and then it followed with another and another. She had told him his dream to be a model until a talent scout found her and offered her to be her manager. She is an ambitious and care
"You're not close with your Dad aren't you?" she heard him ask when they were at the car. Surprised, she never thought that he was that very observant of her situation a while ago. "You were uncomfortable and silent all the time. Are you always like that whenever you were with your family?" Annoyance and bitterness crept inside her chest because he hit the right spot. Not in the mood to explain or weave a lie, she managed to be silent and disregard his questions. "Why are letting them treat you that way?" Is she not mistaken? Is she hearing a tone of concern in his voice? With this man, how come it seems like he knew what she feels and seems like he's very attentive to her demeanor? Knowing him, he should have been insulting her because he saw another flaw in her not this way he was acting like he's worried and concerned about her feelings. "They were my parents, you want me to talk back and disrespect them?" she replied sarcastically. "You know that's not what I'm trying to s
