chapter 3

I stay at the restroom for an hour. I wipe my tears so that it won't be obvious that I cry. I plan to go out and put on some makeup, but as soon as I reach the doorknob, I hear someone coming in. I immediately back off, I don't know why I'm so scared to meet or make an eye contact with them.

"Did you hear what that girl said? She's the wife of our boss", the girl speak while laughing.

"Oh yeah, I heard it a minute ago, she spoke with the guard and claimed to be the wife of Mr. Blake", the other girl replied while laughing too.

" Hahahahahahaha, such a delusional bitch", both of them laughing so hard while mocking me.

While listening to them, I plan on slapping them, put their face in the trash bin and kick their face. But I know to myself that I can't do it, I don't want to have a scandal. And I'm scared that Blake will hate me because of this.

I ask myself, why did Blake hide the fact that I am his wife? Is he ashamed that I am his wife? Or maybe he just didn't tell anyone because he rarely talk to his employee?

And maybe there are so many girls who pretend to be Blake's wife that's why his employee thought that I was one of them, and most importantly they don't know me because I never showed up at the Deluxe company.I feel relieve when I think of that.

I never enter the company because that's what Blake told me. He said that I should only stay at the house to prevent myself from the danger. But I told him that I should go out once a day cause it'll be boring. He agreed to my idea but in exchange there are one condition. I shouldn't go inside at his company.

"But why?", I asked him immediately.

"No question, just follow my rules. It is for your own good", he looked so serious and if I questioned him further he will get mad at me.

I stay quiet for a while then agreed to his condition. Even though I looked so reluctant, I just said okay. I don't want us to fight just because of this.

But today, I didn't obey his orders. I'm sure he'll be mad at me for disobeying. The girls who mocked me finally finish chatting, and they left. I go out to the restroom then I put some make up to hide my puffy eyes.

I low my head to avoid eye contact with people. I put my headphones to my ear so that I can't hear their mumbling or gossiping about me. I go out from the company and I plan on going to a cafe near the company to wait for Blake.

But when I plan to cross the road I saw Blake in the cafe with a girl. At first I thought he has some business with her but when he start grabbing her hand, my whole body shiver. When he start kissing her that's when my world collapse.

I run away, I can't stand it. I want to cry but my tears won't go out. I have so many question to ask Blake.

Who's that girl?

Are you cheating on me?

Is this the reason why you don't want me to enter your company?

For how long?

I know it's just an arranged marriage but you have no right to cheat on me.

I wait outside of his company for an hour. I want to know if what I saw in the cafe was true. Finally he arrive at 3:00 pm, I should be delightful but my emotion change into shock. He enter his company while holding the girl's waist. He never done that to me before. When there're occasions like family gathering he won't let me grab his hand, he would looked at me with a disgusted look.

He look so happy when he's with her. I've never saw his warmth smile before. I realize that she's the only one who can make Blake happy.

Blake's smile leave me silence. I'm planning to go home, I don't want to ruin his moments, but I look like easy to deal with if I just let it go.

I summon all my courage to ask him and talk to him. I run towards him and I enter the company while shouting his name.

"Blake", I shout his name aloud.

There are so many people watching, they start whispering but I don't care all I want is the truth.

I'm so close to Blake, but suddenly I slip. I'm so embarrass but I have to be strong to ask him. Even though I was on the ground, Blake didn't offer his hand to help me stand up. I didn't look up cause I don't want to face him. I just ask him directly without looking in his eyes.

"Blake, who's that girl?, Are you cheating on me?, Why? I am your wi-", Blake suddenly interrupt me.

"Who are you?", Blake ask me with a cold tone and even though I didn't look in his face, I know for sure that he looks mad at me.

"What?, wh-why are you pretending you don't know me?, I am so mad at Blake, why is he pretending? now I know why so many people doesn't know who I am.

I'm so mad at him. How dare he embarrass me Infront if all people. Why are you so cold to me and yet you're so gentle with that girl.

I look up to see the face of his mistress and I was so shock. I can't believe it.

"Louissa?", I call her name aloud.
