She hasn’t told him the details of the party she is going to attend. Likewise, he didn’t ask. When he came home early to prepare for it, he found her sleeping. Thinking she might be tired, he didn’t wake her up. He’ll just go alone.
As for Andrea, there was a problem at her company that she had to resolve early that morning. She was fairly tired and went to sleep early when she got home, so she would have the energy during the party.
When she saw him, there was a woman at his side. For his benefit, he wasn’t staring at her. But Andrea still glared at him. Who knew she’s also the jealous type? Prior to this, Wayne has never been close to any woman. He’d never gone on dates. He always kept his distance during events like this. That woman was itching to put her hand on his arm, though. She can see that much.
Wayne stepped away from the woman, but she inched closer still. He frowned. There’s still someone who thinks he
Wayne noticed her silence in the car, on their way home. He hugged her but she hasn’t made any reaction. She seemed to be thinking deeply. If anything, it looks like she’s sulking. Why, though? He squinted at her and looked back at the events during the party. Many people flocked around them.When they reached home, they went straight to the nursery to check on Ace. Wayne took him into his arms and cuddled him. There’s something soothing about him, tapping the baby and making hushing sounds. Andrea eyed him. He’s still obviously very attractive. Those women were not at all polite. Most of them stared at him without reserve. No doubt, if she wasn’t there, they would’ve tried to flirt with him. Maybe offer themselves up. She sighed. She doesn’t like analyzing people’s behavior too much. One of the reasons why she dislikes socializing with strangers. It’s not for her.After putting Ace to sleep, they both kissed him be
Well, Wayne managed to survive. The next party they attended, Jarred introduced his friends. A man and a woman who are dating. They chatted for a while before Wayne suggested dancing. Of course, he danced with his wife first. Then, Jarred took Andrea and danced with her. Since he’s family, he didn’t feel anything. Andrea then told the woman, Alice, that Wayne’s trying to get used to other women’s presence and asked her and her boyfriend if the lady could dance with him and if the guy could dance with her. One at a time, though. While he danced with Alice, he gave her a bit of a background so he won’t seem weird. Fortunately, she knew a bit about his scandal with the ex-wife. She quickly got the gist of it. Andrea, too, talked to the man, Harry, as they watched their partners.“How long have you guys been dating?”“Just a few months, five… six.”“Ah, I see. Not getting serious yet to consider marr
Does Andrea still go out? Yes. Given how those who tried to harm them were treated afterwards, Wayne really hoped no one else would try.Every month, they would only attend a maximum of two parties. Together.They still go out on weekends, but they’re totally random. No fixed time, no fixed place. They’re both seen together in public again. Her security is quite serious but she’s not bothered. In conferences or parties, she would accompany Wayne. Basically, the only time they could meet Mrs. Wayne Anderson is when her husband is with her. Rumors remain that she’s imprisoned at home or something. She only laughs it off. Wayne would sometimes drop her off at her parent’s house or at their companies. Jay has become her personal assistant while managing her own business and those of her parents. She stopped at three. Drew’s not interested in one. When they celebrated their son’s first birthday, she got the news that s
Her hands clutched the sheet beneath her as he mastered her body.Andrea’s breathing turned heavy and irregular. She’s not sure whether she’s supposed to breath or not in certain moments. When he touched her, she caught her breath. When he roughly squeezed her breasts, she caught her breath again.“That’s it. Let them hear you.” He whispered against her skin. His mouth pressing wet kisses on her naked body. And then, he captured one breast into his mouth and sucked. The bolt of pleasure that went through her body was dizzying. She’s no virgin but her previous encounters were nothing like this. Those were clumsy, messy and total embarrassments. She hadn’t felt any pleasure, only pain.But now… her hazy gaze searched for his face. She reached out to touch his hair and guide him as he tasted her body. He moved from one breast to the other and it was bliss to her. She gasped and moaned loudly as his fingers delv
Wayne pounded into her as her cries echoed around the walls. He thought it might take a while before he can have her but she proved to be ready and willing. She didn’t resist. She reacted sweetly to his every touch. When he entered her, it seems her insides were sucking him in. She was tight and her warmth was pleasurable to him. Her body and skin were too soft. She was very pliant. He grunted against her neck as he spilled his seed inside her. Her body trembled beneath him and she whimpered after shouting in ecstasy. She was panting against his ears. He’s not finished with her yet, though. Only now did he realize how brilliant his decision was. She would be a nice companion in bed. But of course, she’s his wife. New wife. For a moment, he was reminded of the previous one and his expression darkened.Andrea didn’t notice anything as she’s too exhausted to move and open her eyes. Her body was still reacting to his movements, though. Soon, she coul
Andrea’s aware of his past marriage. He hasn’t been involved with anyone after his divorce. At least, not one that has been reported on the news. She did read up on his latest news when she considered asking him for help, just to get a feel of what he’s like at the moment.“Since you’re not currently involved with anyone, this might not be unappealing to you. Read it.” He languidly sat on the couch, stretching his right arm on the backrest.Must he be so overbearing? She’s more interested in the “why” than the “what”.As she looked at the document, she took some time to think about the situation. Why would he propose such a thing? He’d been married before. If she were him, she might completely vow never to marry again. She’d been in failed relationships and she’s almost close to becoming a cynic. Yeah, sometimes she would think that finding a person who you can have a prior agree
Andrea bit her lip as she continued to read. Treatment of in-laws. She would move in with him as soon as she agrees, even before the wedding. Hmm… he said none are negotiable. Well, stump!Household conduct. Facilities. Properties. Prenup Agreement. Well, he must need that one. She’s no one whereas he’s this tycoon ruling the business world. No divorce. No settlement upon separation.Acts that are considered cheating. She decided to confirm her understanding of each one. As expected, he’s not unreasonable. Of course, she has male friends! Those shouldn’t be counted against her.“What do you think?” He asked while glancing at his wrist watch.Subconsciously, she looked down at her own. Well, she might’ve taken much of his time. If she’s not mistaken, she’d been here for more than an hour already.Wayne cleared his afternoon schedule just for this, but he’s simply used to working ever
It was a bad idea to kiss her. Wayne realized as he glanced at the closed door of his office. She tasted sweet and he relished in the way she responded to him.When he was forming the contract in his mind, he thought he might as well satisfy his physical needs. She would be his wife, anyway, so kissing and having sex should be normal. He would admit that she’s attractive and he was attracted. At least, physically.But that kiss… he hasn’t engaged in bedroom activities since the divorce. He was fairly disgusted with women at that point and didn’t want anything to do with them. It worked well for his business as he shifted all his attention to that. How long was it since he enjoyed a woman’s body and relished in carnal pleasures?Six months would be too long, he groaned as he realized that now.The plan has been set in motion. His sisters know she’d come to see him. He’d let her visit his office a few more times be

Ace is now six months old. The nanny and the maids are all over him. The grandparents also visit a lot. They don’t need to be so worried about him. Andrea decided to continue her third project. It’s for her own. A business she has to manage. It’s real work. Not as tedious as Wayne’s. She could admit that she would not be able to reach his level. Not many people can and there’s no competition between them anyway. Wayne… he hasn’t told her to stop working. Maybe she does have an advantage over his ex-wife. She can talk business with him and he can talk about his company with her. He could teach her. He could say whatever others may think as boring, but she would find them interesting and informative.Wayne, he still feels a bit guilty. Seeing her cooped up at home and occasionally going to the offices, his and that of her parents, he wants her to feel free to go out anytime and anywhere.He would take her out on weekends. Having
Wayne sighed. “I’m not gonna lie. I probably would have, but my brain would definitely try to rationalize it. You’ve always been home. You’ve been very careful when you go outside. You wouldn’t have the opportunity to…” He stopped at seeing her glare.“Excuse me? Do I need an opportunity?” Her tone is…“Of course not. You never had that intention. You were never interested in other guys, were you?”“I didn’t have the time to get interested. I was too busy. Even when I met you, I really had no intention of getting into a relationship.”“Glad I caught you, then.” He pressed a kiss on the right side of her face.“Then, I guess it shouldn’t matter if she came to piss you off today or back then. You wouldn’t have believed her, right?”“Well, I do have a propensity to distrust whatever she says or does.”
Wayne named him Ace.At the hospital, Andrea had a hard time giving birth to him. She was utterly exhausted. The baby was healthy. When the parents came to visit, they saw Wayne carefully holding him as an elderly woman guided him from the side, holding a cotton towel and wiping the baby’s face when he drools in his sleep. She was hired as a nanny and a mother of one of the maids in their household.Wayne enthusiastically greeted them, showing off the baby.“Looks just like you as a baby.” His mother commented.“How do you remember something from so long ago?” Wayne replied with a smile, but he’s glad to hear it.“Oh, you never looked at your baby pictures, did you? I brought them with me. Come, look.”Wayne’s lip twitched as he blinked. The in-laws huddled around his mother. She laid the albums near the end of the bed as Wena carried her grandson.“Oh, they really look alike
Andrea’s eyes widened. She wanted to ask what did she just hear, but he didn’t stop from kissing her.He’s afraid, that she would reject him. He wanted to fool himself. She was kissing him back. That should mean something, right? He believes they like each other and Andrea seems to be the committed type. She’s faithful to him because they’re married. She treats him as a proper husband. She acts like a real wife. But does she love him, too?She moaned as his kiss turned aggressive. She wanted to pull back as they’re still in the living room, but he wouldn’t let her go. She slid down the couch, prompting them to separate for a moment. She took this chance to take a breath and covered his mouth with her hand.In that moment, she saw how his expression wavered, showing anxiety.She removed her hand and pecked his lips.“Let me breathe a little.” She sounded breathless as she lay there. Wayne froze f
The next day, she started having the so-called morning sickness. It was concerning, if you ask Wayne. Personally, she feels as if something’s sucking her stomach out as she heaved over the sink. When she mentioned it, he had her eat some porridge before dragging her to the hospital. With his connections, requiring an appointment didn’t matter.His first question was, “Is that normal?”The female doctor smiled, “Yes, it’s very normal. I understand it’s your first pregnancy but it’s nothing to worry about.”She then gave them a lecture on how to deal with it, the remedies, before moving onto giving them general reminders on what food to avoid at this time.“Take note of the smells that triggers your nausea. It’s different for everyone, but the most common is a fishy smell.”And then, they moved to the adjacent room for the ultrasound. Wayne tried to be calm about it, but his hand
