Having taken her medicine, Arianna chose to lay her body on the bed directly, giving her joints some rest that felt stiff after a day of exploring various interesting places scattered around Seoul, South Korea. While Arianna was busy relieving her fatigue, Samuel, having finished his shower, opted to sit for a moment on the sofa. He took out his laptop to work on some reports and finished around 10 PM.As he wasn't sleepy yet, this time Samuel spent his time relaxing on the sofa while watching TV. For a while, he seemed absorbed in various news being presented. When he turned to look at his wife, Samuel found Arianna appearing restless on the bed, changing sleeping positions as if struggling to find a comfortable spot."Arianna, what's wrong?" Samuel called out.Hearing her name, Arianna immediately sat up. She brought her gaze, staring directly at Samuel who was still sitting on the sofa."I can't sleep. Although I'm really sleepy," she complained in a somewhat spoiled tone."Well th
Arianna woke up in pain that was radiating throughout her body. It was an unusual pain she had never felt in her entire life. Bringing her hand to her lips, Arianna repeatedly rubbed them. They felt numb. Slightly swollen. Surely, it was the result of the kisses and bites Samuel gave her without pause last night.Arianna then dramatically closed her eyes, trying to recall what she and Samuel did last night. Shortly after, her cheeks turned bright red. She was embarrassed because she had been the one to initiate everything."You're truly insane, Arianna! How did your modesty lead you to invite Samuel for that last night?" Arianna cursed herself. Not because she regretted giving herself to Samuel, but because of the overwhelming embarrassment. She was sure that when her husband woke up or became aware, he would mock what she had done last night.Lost in her own thoughts, Arianna remembered Samuel. Glancing to the side, she found her husband still sound asleep, bare-chested, with one arm
Arabella looked enthusiastic welcoming Samuel and Arianna, who had just arrived from South Korea. Without hesitation, she was willing to inconvenience herself to personally pick up her son and daughter-in-law at the airport.Together with Randy, Arabella appeared patient as they waited in the arrival lounge. At exactly eight in the evening, Samuel, Arianna, and Axton finally appeared. The middle-aged woman immediately stood up, then approached the three of them."Arianna, Samuel," she called. Once they were close, without any awkwardness, Arabella immediately threw herself into a hug towards her daughter-in-law first. "Mom missed you guys so much," she said while hugging tightly."Arianna missed Mom too.""How are you? Are you doing well over there?" Arabella asked enthusiastically without letting go of her embrace."Good, Mom. Just a bit stiff from sitting for too long."While Samuel, standing beside Arianna, immediately sighed. As usual, he was ready to voice his complaints."Mom on
Arianna felt much better than the previous night. When she opened her eyes, she didn't find Samuel beside her, even though the clock showed it was only six in the morning. Where did her husband go so early?Remembering that today she was returning to work, Arianna hurriedly cleaned herself and got ready. As she left the room, intending to go to the dining room, Arianna's sense of smell immediately caught the enticing aroma of cooking. It made her stomach instantly protest, demanding to be filled.And indeed, as she reached the dining room, Arianna finally found her husband, whom she had been looking for since earlier."Are you awake?" Samuel greeted when he noticed Arianna standing at the dining room door. Walking closer, he immediately guided his wife to sit in a chair."I am, already. I look pretty like this. Why are you in the kitchen so early?" Arianna wondered. It was unusual for her husband to be busy in the kitchen early in the morning, wearing his favorite pink apron."I'm pre
"Darling, you took so long with your makeup."Samuel had been sitting on the edge of the bed for a while. He was waiting for his wife, who seemed engrossed in front of the dressing table, surrounded by various cosmetics on her face. Waiting impatiently, Samuel finally voiced his protest. He got up and approached her."Are you putting on makeup or painting the house? I've been waiting for almost half an hour, and you're not done yet," he complained.Arianna glanced at him. From behind the mirror, she could see her husband pouting, but it looked amusing nonetheless. Samuel's behavior this morning was like that of a child.Actually, the issue didn't start with makeup. Earlier, Samuel had asked his wife to help him tie his tie. However, since Arianna hadn't finished beautifying herself, Samuel had to wait patiently."Oh my goodness. It's only been a few minutes. I'm just starting my skincare routine. Haven't even gotten to the makeup yet, Samuel. Besides, you usually can tie your own tie.
Some time ago, Valerie had already asked Joshua, the manager, to prepare for her return to Indonesia. The woman no longer wanted to compromise, let alone postpone her plans to meet Samuel in Indonesia.To make matters worse, Valerie's heart was heating up. She casually checked Samuel's social media and found several posts of intimate photos and videos of her lover enjoying a holiday abroad with another woman.That's why, when she set foot in Indonesia today, she chose to part ways with Joshua. While her manager went straight to the apartment, Valerie, without much thought, headed to Samuel's office. She was confident that her boyfriend would still be at the office.Upon reaching the Pacific building, wearing sunglasses and a black mini dress, the tall and graceful woman strolled casually. She continued through the lobby and corridors towards the floor where Samuel's office was located.Valerie's smile continued as she encountered anyone along the way. Her steps halted when she reached
After having dinner, Arianna decided to go back to the room. Grabbing her laptop, she took a seat on the sofa, continuing to work on evaluating the results of the presentation she had delivered to the Pakuwon team.After thirty minutes of working, the bedroom door was heard opening. Samuel had just entered the room. He placed the bag he brought on the table and approached Arianna, who was sitting."Why did you come home with Randy?"Instead of apologizing first, those curt words were the first to come out of the narrow-eyed man's mouth, as if there was underlying irritation in his statement.Arianna remained unmoved. She seemed indifferent, not caring at all about Samuel, who was standing waiting for her answer. She continued focusing on what she was doing."Arianna, can you hear me?"Arianna remained silent. This only seemed to make Samuel more frustrated."Arianna Grey Walters," Samuel called out again. His voice sounded slightly elevated. "I'm talking to you. Please answer!"At tha
"Esmeralda."Arianna immediately turned when she, having just placed her bag on the work desk, saw Chacha approaching her out of the blue during lunchtime. The beautiful fair-skinned woman promptly pulled a chair, sat down, and without much talk, served two lunch boxes on the table for her and Arianna to enjoy together.Don't be surprised. Even though Arianna had become the wife of a leader, almost every day Chacha brought food for her friend. It has been a habit since their college days, even spending lunch together, either for a meal or snacks, while discussing various topics."So, who did you go home with yesterday evening?" Chacha asked while opening the bento boxes she brought, one by one."With Mr. Randy," replied Arianna as she tidied up the papers on her desk."Oh? You went home with Mr. Randy? I thought Mr. Samuel would be the one to pick you up.""Far from it," scoffed Arianna. Accepting chopsticks from Chacha, Arianna confidently took a piece of sushi and tasted it first. "
