The Good Wife's Enemy 24: Her Life Goal
Leo stared blankly at nothing in particular, thinking about how stupid he was back then. He had been with patients with different mental conditions, yet he let himself act weird in front of Margot. He was lucky she didn’t mention it but anybody would freak out if their doctor just popped out of nowhere and said things he shouldn’t to his patient.Embarrassment was an understatement. Leo even almost told Margot about his sleepless nights since she walked into his office. He tried to forget everything and moved on, but after his assistant informed him that Margot was coming, he couldn’t be more nervous than ever. He just hoped she forgot how he acted overly concerned that night.After all, Leo knew it would be right to get involved in a married couple just because he felt something special toward somebody else’s wife.“Doc, Mrs. Walton has arrived,” Hannah informed, cutting off the doctor’s train of thought.Leo cleared his throat and replied, “Let her in.”“Hi. Good morning,” Margot gr
The Good Wife's Enemy 25: His ‘Dirty Laundry’
Margot couldn’t help but smile as she went home after her appointment with the psychiatrist. He felt refreshed and relieved despite the problems she had with her husband. Margot was quite confident she could face everything with a smile… Everything, not until she walked inside the house and found Harry and Nadine sitting on the sofa while watching a movie.Clapping her hands slowly, Margot grinned at the two. “Wow! When did we open our doors for strangers to watch movies on our TV, honey?”Harry threw her a quick look and just shrugged. “You’re here. Where have you gone again? I called my secretary so we could sort out the schedule I have for work.”Margot scoffed. “On the weekends? At your house? I wasn’t informed you’re the company chairman, hon. ‘Cause you know, even dad doesn’t have to do all this stuff in the name of ‘working’. And why is she wearing a mini-dress when her boss called over?”Nadine bowed her head and scooted closer to Harry, making Margot’s eyebrow raise even high
The Good Wife's Enemy 26: A Wife’s Wrath
Margot was not surprised, not even disappointed when Harry didn’t come home at night. She made dinner for herself, enjoyed her meal silently, and went to bed. She didn’t bother calling or texting him, knowing he was with his mistress. Margot knew she had to get used to being alone, so Harry would have nothing to use against her when the right time came to completely rid of him in her life.On Sunday morning, Margot woke up and prepared for her appointment at noon. She was leaving the house when Harry’s car arrived.“Good morning, honey. Did you have breakfast?” Harry asked, smiling. He looked so fully energized, making Margot uncomfortable just by looking at him, knowing what made him like that.“The three-letter exercise, I see,” she whispered, ignoring her husband and walking out of the house.Harry didn’t like the way Margot treated him. So, he followed, grabbed her by the arm, and made her look at him. “I’m sorry,” he said with no trace of sincerity neither in his voice nor eyes.
The Good Wife's Enemy 27: Instant Karma
“Oh, what a lovely morning!” Margot stretched her arms with a smile. She had a wonderful sleep at night after meeting with the lawyer.Humming, she stepped out of the shower and walked downstairs in a bathrobe to see her husband drinking a coffee. It was rare for Margot to see him prepare something for himself.“Good morning, honey.” Margot beamed. She took her mug and prepared a hot chocolate drink.While stirring her drink, Margot heated a pan. She put some butter and broke an egg, adding some bacon, too. In less than five minutes, she made herself a breakfast.“What about mine?” Harry asked, his brows furrowed.Margot tilted her head to the side. “You want breakfast?” she asked, nonchalantly. When Harry nodded, she smiled. “Then make it.”Harry hissed in disbelief. “Are you serious?”Shrugging, Margot sat in front of him and took a bite of her fried egg sandwich. “Or maybe you should try calling your sex—secretary,” she sneered.“You’re being too much!” Harry left his seat and was
The Good Wife's Enemy 28: Not Enough
“Everything will be okay,” Margot whispered to Harry in the ambulance. “I’ll be right by your side, hon.” She smiled, holding his hand tightly.Harry groaned, suppressing his screams as he endured the itch and burning sensation on his thing between his thighs. “Fuck! Why is this happening? I have to prepare for a business trip in two weeks,” he said, shutting his eyes in discomfort.Margot sighed. “Stop thinking about work. You have to get better first. I’m sure someone can do it on your behalf,” she commented, wiping Harry’s sweat. “Gosh, you look terrible.”“This is because of that fucking cream you gave me!” Harry retorted, glaring at his wife.Margot covered her mouth in shock, but in reality, she was hiding her grin. “I—It’s not my fault, honey! Besides, I didn’t give it to you. You took it,” she said in a matter-of-fact tone.“It was a freaking anti-fungal cream, Margot! That shit burns on the skin,” Harry said in frustration. He was embarrassed enough to leave the office in an
The Good Wife's Enemy 29: Slowly, But Surely
A week passed after Harry was sent to the hospital. The doctors said he should be careful and avoid sexual intercourse until the rashes were completely healed. For Harry, who never missed a day sleeping with his young lover, his condition was hellish.On the other hand, Margot never felt relaxed despite knowing that Harry and Nadine were still seeing in secret. Although Harry stayed at home while working, his secretary was not leaving his side. Nadine would always come to their house just right after Margot left for work. If it was in the past, she’d feel bad whenever Harry brought another woman into their house.But Margot wanted to trust the process. She had nothing to worry about ‘cause even when she was away, she could see everything. It was all thanks to the new and hidden cameras she installed in their house while Harry was stuck in the hospital for days.“Here’s your coffee, Ma’am.” Tricia placed a cup of warm coffee on Margot’s table. “Do you need anything else?”Margot nodded
The Good Wife's Enemy 30: Ticket To Hell
Margot didn’t get a break in the following days. She was busy convincing Vivian to let her go for a business trip, but as it wasn’t part of her job, she was refused. Ultimately, Margot insisted on getting a three-day leave while planning to visit their branches abroad.Meanwhile, Harry had to work from home for the entire week because of his condition. Although he was slowly recovering, he never missed a day calling his secretary to come and ‘serve’ him.“Wow. Just wow…” Margot clicked her tongue. After a rough day, she just came out of the shower and decided to check the footage from the security cameras installed in their house. She wasn’t expecting much, knowing that Harry couldn’t get his thing up after the incident.Surprisingly, Harry seemed to recover faster than she thought he would. He was so full of vigor that he even managed to copulate with his mistress.Nadine moaned breathlessly on top of the office table while occasionally screaming for Harry’s name. She rolled her eyes
The Good Wife's Enemy 31: Not A Chance
“Good morning, Margot. You look… Energetic,” Leo smiled as he sat on the opposite side of the table, facing his patient.Margot smiled back, her eyes sparkling. “I’m leaving the country tonight,” she replied.Leo nodded. “Business trip?” He tilted his head to the side, watching her shake her head. He couldn’t help smiling seeing her grinning from ear to ear.“Nah. Just taking a break with a twist,” she said, laughing to herself.“A twist?” Leo’s brows furrowed a little. “What do you mean?”Margot hummed. “Let’s say, I’m preparing for something big, so I have to keep my enemies in check. That cheater did it with his other woman in my house,” she grumbled. “He was going out of line, right? I’m going to teach him a lesson for that.”Leo suddenly felt an ominous aura coming from Margot. “Tell me it’s not something dangerous,” he gulped.“I think it’s not. Well, my jerk of a husband is going for a business trip and he’ll be taking his mistress aka secretary. I wanted to go with them but th
