"Maxime, please. Just this once, give me ten minutes to talk to her. Besides, it's not like Alexander came here with Casandra. I'm sure he's here with his mom or his friends, enjoying the water park. There's no harm in him greeting his employer himself.""Yes, but...""Please, just this once. Consider my wish, and show some respect for everything I've done. It's not that difficult to fulfill this one request, especially when you forbid me from talking to Alexander too much. This is Casandra, not Alexander." Cesilia emphasized once again, and Zayn finally allowed her to go."Ten minutes, no more than that. If not, you'll see the consequences.""Fine." Cesilia walked away, quickly catching up to Casandra, who was quite far ahead. "Who did you come here with? Mama?" Cesilia asked quickly because she only had ten minutes."With Sir. He's waiting for Madam in the parking lot. Let's go, he said he has some questions to ask Madam." Casandra immediately took Cesilia's hand and led her towards
Casandra and Frans eagerly boarded the roller coaster. Casandra held on tightly to the side handlebars, and her face turned flushed with excitement. Frans, on the other hand, tried to put on a brave face despite his hidden fear of roller coasters.As the ride started and the roller coaster climbed up the tracks, Casandra let out a joyous scream, feeling the adrenaline rush through her veins. Frans couldn't help but smile at her enthusiasm, but he also couldn't shake off his own nervousness.The roller coaster then plunged down a steep slope, and Casandra's scream turned into a mix of thrill and fear. Frans, still trying to maintain his composure, let out a small yell as well. The twists, turns, and loops of the ride brought a mix of emotions to both of them – excitement, fear, and an indescribable feeling of liberation.As the roller coaster came to a stop, Casandra jumped off with a wide grin on her face. "That was amazing! Let's do it again!" she exclaimed, her eyes shining with exh
As Alexander and Casandra descended from the ferris wheel, Alexander noticed Cesilia walking hand-in-hand with Maxime. They seemed more like a couple than an employer and employee, with Maxime possessively holding Cesilia's hand.Alexander felt a surge of anger and jealousy, but he knew he couldn't do anything about it. He couldn't confront Maxime or Cesilia in public, as it would only lead to more problems, especially if Cesilia was indeed having feelings for another man. He decided to observe from a distance for now, unsure of what to do next.They continued to explore the water park, but Alexander couldn't fully enjoy the experience. His mind was preoccupied with thoughts of Cesilia and Maxime. Casandra noticed his change in demeanor and tried to distract him with the various attractions, but she could tell something was bothering him.After a while, Casandra suggested heading back home, knowing that Alexander needed rest. Reluctantly, he agreed, and they made their way to the exit
Cecilia tried hard to hold back her tears. If Maxime wasn’t by her side, she would have surely shed all the tears she had. It was the first time she saw her husband walking side by side with another girl, doing so many activities together.Throughout her marriage to Alexander, Cecilia had never done what he was doing with Casandra. Playing at the water park, going on various rides, experiencing thrilling adventures, and she could clearly see how much Alexander was enjoying it.Where had she been all this time that she never made time for vacations like what he was doing now?Cecilia realized that ever since she decided to pursue a career as a model and chase after her dreams and aspirations, she never once invited Alexander to spend more time with him. She vividly remembered that they only went abroad during their honeymoon. After that, there was never any time for Alexander, just occasional moments to relax like what Casandra was giving him.She also acknowledged that her time was co
Casandra shifted her attention elsewhere, feeling flustered after experiencing such an intimate moment for the first time in her life. Her lips had been kissed by a man, even though Alexander was her legitimate husband. Despite this, Casandra couldn't help but feel nervous and awkward. Being so close to a man, especially someone like Alexander who had always despised her, was quite overwhelming."I'm sorry," mumbled Alexander, feeling embarrassed for accidentally doing that to Casandra. He had let himself be carried away by the atmosphere, and unconsciously planted a brief kiss on Casandra's lips.Both Casandra and Alexander couldn't understand why he had dared to do such a thing. On one hand, Alexander justified it because Casandra was his lawful wife. No one could forbid or scold him for what he had done. However, Casandra couldn't refuse it either, as she believed it was her duty as a wife, right? But Alexander was still too proud to admit that Casandra was his wife, and he hadn't
She had hoped to go home tonight. Was this what they called an agreement? Maxime always broke the promises he made himself. If this continued, Alexander might become suspicious of her having other engagements outside of being a model, especially as his superior's mistress."Why? You're angry at me in the middle of the night for no reason," Maxime sighed, pulling the blanket to cover his body. He was truly tired, but Cesilia disturbed his deep slumber."It's better if you take me home, or I'll just let everything be revealed. It's better for everything to be revealed quickly, so I can apologize to my husband. Instead of dragging this on, you make jokes. I'd rather lose Alexander and you as well."Cesilia pointed her index finger at Maxime's face, giving a warning and a little resistance so that he couldn't take advantage of her anymore.Maxime treated her like this even after tearing her marriage apart, and now he trapped her with promises that he had no intention of fulfilling.Since
"They, so Alexander went with Casandra?""Of course. With whom else? Since you're the only one here, Alexander naturally went with his new wife. Wasn't that what you wanted, for him to have a child soon?""Oh, my goodness!" Cesilia massaged her temples. "So that girl has gone this far. I can't believe it," she lamented."Don't blame Casandra because you're the one who sold Alexander to her.""I only gave her money to rent her womb, not to take my husband, Ma!" Cesilia retorted, not willing to back down as Meri seemed to support Casandra as Alexander's legitimate wife.If this continued, Meri might one day ask Alexander to divorce Cesilia. No, that must not happen, as Cesilia was Alexander's only wife, and there should be no other woman, especially not Casandra. She was their own housemaid. How could Cesilia let herself be outshined by a lowly and uncultured woman like Casandra?Alexander was right; Casandra was just a village girl who had no self-awareness. Cesilia should not have poi
Casandra was ready, her wet hair wrapped in a small towel. Her slender body was covered with a robe, and now she was prepared to meet Alexander in the room.Although feeling a bit awkward with her current appearance, Casandra had no choice but to face her husband. It was impossible for her to sleep in the bathroom."Better to catch a cold than to suddenly turn into a mermaid, right?" she thought to herself.Feeling very awkward, Casandra sat on a sofa, while Alexander was on the edge of the bed. He was still sitting in the same position as before Casandra entered the bathroom."What are you thinking about, sir?" Casandra asked after a long period of silence between her and Alexander.Alexander turned to look at Casandra, shaking his head. "Nothing, I was just guessing the total cost of the interior in this room.""For what?" Casandra asked again, finding it a bit strange that her husband was guessing the price of the hotel room's interior.Especially when the items Alexander had in hi
