CHAPTER 6 HUSBAND AND WIFE

I just continued watching One Piece while his sleeping besides me. I also ate the fruits he gave me.

I didn't know how the time flies so fast. I was accidentally look at the wall because my eyes was crying again. The scene is so sad Ace the brother of Luffy died! I paused the video and shed my tears. Its already 4 p.m.

The bastard suddenly move and I knew his already awake. I look at him and raised a brow. His eyes still closed but I knew he is awake. He slowly opened his eyes.

"Enjoying what your hugging?" sarcasm was all over my voice. He looks clueless but when he traces his arms and found it snaking on my body. He immediately pull his arm and move far away from me.

"I didn't intend to hold. I'm sleeping, I though your just my pillow. Don't get me wrong." he defended him self immediately. Whatever!

"I need my laptop jerk! Get my laptop on the front desk, my secretary leaves it there." I just said. He raised his brow but still stood up and walk out of the room. I sigh so deeply! Damn it! Why my heart is racing!

I know that we are still in there hotel but I just don't know what is his room number so I just said to my secretary to leave it there. I turned off the TV and just wait for him.

The monitor of the CCTV in our mansion that I set was on my laptop. I'm going to stay up till night to found out what's really happening in our mansion.

I wonder what will be my action if I found out that my beloved father is having an affair. But one thing for sure, I'll damn slap that bitch very hard on the face.

Finally Asher enters the room holding my laptop, he gave it to me silently and got his phone on the side table. I opened my laptop and wait for it. My eyes travelled to him. I saw he dialed something on his phone. He was just listening. I rolled my eyes. I know it his company again.

I just focused my attention on my laptop and went to the monitoring of CCTV, so far our mansion is peaceful. I saw my mother at our living room watching a TV while sipping a tea.

I saw on my peripheral vision how Asher fastly go to the other door, and just a 3 minutes, he changed his clothes in office attire. He look at me when he finally feel my stares. He sigh very deeply. But I just rolled my eyes at him. I know, I know your damn company needs you.

"I already told you to just drive me home." I seriously said while looking at my laptop. I just heard his deep sigh. How dare him to say he'd goddamn take care of me when his leaving me alone here.

"I've already prepared you a dinner." he calmly stated. How damn can I eat that if I didn't have a strength to stand. I wanted to voice out that but I just zipper my lips. I look at him. His staring at me.

"Where's my phone?" he was just staring at me when he got my phone on his pocket. I raised my brow. Why the hell is he holding my phone. I still accept it silently and was about to call my mom when Asher was still standing there looking at me intently.

"I thought your rushing? What you still doing there? Go now. I can take care of myself." I said very calmly. He looks so very hesitant but I rolled my eyes and just dialed my mom's number. I don't even care of him now. I put it on the loudspeaker mode cause I'm doing my work on my laptop.

"Alice Sylvan!" my mom shouted. I saw on my peripheral vision that Asher sits on the sofa near his bed. So his near me. Why my mom is shouting?

"Yes, mom? Why are you shouting your princess

Gwyned Sandra?" I said playfully. I heard her dramatic sigh that makes me laugh.

"Why are you doing this to me? Why are you making me like a damn teenager! Do I really have to do what you said?" she ranted thats make he even more laugh.

"Mom, easy. That was just part of growing up!" I laughly said and burst out into laughter. I also heard mom's laughter. But I stopped laughing when Asher caught my eyes. He is still sitting on the sofa staring at me.

I glared at him and gesture him to go. He sigh and finally stood up and walk towards me, he puts his hand on my forehead again and sigh when he felt I'm still hot. He mouthed I'll be back and get off the room. I'm leaving later. Thats it. I suddenly felt so sleepy.

"Mom, just go to my condo. I'm sleepy. Take care." I ended the call. I shut down my laptop and fixed myself in the bed. I closed my eyes and I immediately doze off to sleep.

I damn wake up because of the noise of my ringing cellphone. I lazily get it. Its just beside me. I damn accepted the call even without seeing the caller.

"Alice Sylvan." my eyes suddenly opened and my heart race when I heard Asher's baritone voice.

"Why are you calling bastard!?" my voice is so hoarsely, it really sounded like I just woke up. I heard his sigh. I also heard the sounds of the car. It means his on the road.

"You just woke up?" he ignored my question. Damn his voice is damn so good. It's just like a DJ in a radio.

"Yes." I simply replied

"I'm on the way now---" I cut him off. I ended the call. What did he just say? His on the way now! No! I have to leave already! I slowly get up and pray that my sleep was enough to gather strength.

I stand but my world crushed when I fell into the floor. Damn it! Why! I wanted damn to cry but my pride won't let me cry! I just stay here sitting on the floor. I stared at the floor. I I didn't know how the time passed I was just busy staring at the floor. When the door opened up.

"Damn it what are you doing there?" I heard Asher voice. I just look at him. I feel damn so weak. He carries me and put back on his bed. He silently put his hand in my forehead. I didn't speak. I just wanted to stay quiet. He silently went out of the room and he came back later. Bringing a food in a tray.

He was about to fed me but I annoyingly take the food to him. I'm not damn injured! He raised a brow. I also raised mine. He shrugged and gestured me just to eat. He sit in front of me. And just stared at me. I just ate the chicken soup. When he noticed that I'm done. He get up and get the tray then leave the room again.

I opened my laptop, I also opened my phone and its damn already 11:30 p.m! There are 6 miscalls from unknown number which is Asher's phone number. I rolled my eyes. So annoying!

I turned my attention on the laptop and immediately go to the monitors of the CCTV. I review it and my mother already left. She's just like a ninja while scaping. I already wrecked the monitors of the original CCTV in our mansion. So that my father won't see what I am planning.

Asher went in and walk towards my direction. He look at me and lie down beside me. So I raised my brow. He looked at my laptop.

"We already slept together but that doesn't mean we will slept together again. Don't you have any other room?" he looked at me when I spoke.

"This room was built mine alone. So I'm sorry to say but there's no other room and don't tell me to sleep at the sofa. I won't sleep there." tiredness was all over his voice. I can sense it he is tired. Okay I will leave him alone.

"Your mom is not a good actress." he said that makes my blood boiled. I look at him. He gets my laptop and put it on my legs then he pointed out something. I look at it and I saw how my mom is awkwardly moving. She was just like a criminal. She moves every minute and look at the door every minute. Yes she is indeed a bad actress but she escaped successfully. That's the matter. I cleared mt throat. I saw how the side lips of Asher smirk.

"I'm a good actress. I got that talent from my mother." that's the only words I can say. He laughs at me. I look at him so deadly. His laugh is damn annoying!

"IT'S TRUE! I CAN EVEN ACT AS YOUR LOVER TILL TOMORROW! I CAN ACT LIKE A SWEET LOVING WIFE!" I just said because of annoyance. He stopped laughing and this time he smirk so damn flashy!

"Tsss, just accept that acting is not in your mom's gene." then he smirk! It's annoying! He is really fucking annoying me!

"Come on let's test it. I got my acting skills from my mom! Come kn Amadeus Asher!" I'm really annoyed right now!

"Just accept - - -" I cut him off.

"Do you want me to act as your lover? Or as your wife? Come on!" I even raised my voice. He was just staring at me while smirking.

"Okay I'll act as your wife." I even decided for him to proved that my mother and I was a great actress. Damn it! I really hate my pride!

"Your pride is damn amusing." then he burst out into laughter. I put my laptop on the bed and was about to hit him when he catches my hand and pull me. I fell on top of him. He still laughing! I hit him on my elbow and punch him on the chest. He said ouch and loses his hold to my hand that's the chance to sit up.

"My wife is damn a fighter." then he laughed again. You want this. Then fine I'll act as your damn wife! I look at him annoyed, he look at me still slightly laughing. Then I smiled sweetly at him. That makes him stop from laughing.

I move near him and tilted my head while still staring at him. He stopped laughing and just stared at me too. He is annoying but your annoyance will melt away because of his damn handsomeness.

"So what if I am a fighter. Are you going to file a divorce?" let see how can he play along. He was trying to hide his smile but he unsuccessfully hide it. He hold my arms and pull me gently that makes me lay down beside him. His arm that pulled me become my pillow. His other arm was hugging my waist. Then he whispered on my ears that makes me feel goosebumps.

"Why would I do that? I love seeing you and spending time with you my wife. And remember even if you file a divorce, I won't damn even lift my finger to sign it." he said seriously.

I couldn't move. Why the hell I let this man hug me? But I'm his wife right now so its okay right? This was just part on an acting! Okay. Damn! My heart beats so fast! No, I won't let him win!

I look at him and even use his chest as my pillow then I whispered too.

"Why would I do that. Marrying you, calling you my husband and being called as a Mrs. Harlow the wife of Amadeus Asher Harlow is the biggest and happiest dream of my life." I sweetly said and then look at him. I found him staring at me while smirking. Hmmp! I will prove to you that me and my mommy are the best actresses.

But our staring contest end when suddenly my phone rang. We both look in it. Since Asher was hugging me, he bent and reach out my phone then he gave it to me. My mother is calling but she is already in my house. Does she bring her phone with her? Daddy might find her!

I immediately sit up. Asher was still lying down at bed and still hugging my body! We are really damn look like a married couple. I didn't mind him. I immediately look at the monitors of the CCTV and my father is the one whose calling not my mom he was just home.

My mother calls again or should I say my father is calling again in my mom's number. I cleared my throat. I know that Asher is watching me. Watch out jerk! You'll see how great actress I am. I answered my mom's call. I immediately spoke.

"Mom, what the hell! Do you know what time is it?" but the other line didn't say anything. Yes father I'm not with mother cause shes there alone in my condo because of you. Look what time is it! It's already 12 a.m! And my daddy still wearing his suit. He just came home!

"Mom? Are you there? Is somethings bothering you again? Does father not home yet? Mom?" I consecutively said. But the other line is still silently. This is it! This is for you father.

"Mom, considered the offer I gave you. Live with me and left your husband alone. His hurting you not physically but emotionally. I love daddy but if he continues not to take care of you. I will kidnapped you mom. So don't wait for your husband to come home and just go to bed. Dream of me mommy." I said heartedly. I really meant all of the words I said.

In just how many times my mom called at me at night saying my father is not home yet she is really worried about him that if I didn't even stopped her from worrying she might call a police.

And the late at night. I went to our mansion to see how my mom's doing and found her at our living room peacefully sleeping. The maids said that she is waiting for my dad. I wanted to confront my dad but he is always with my mom and my mommy is really happy besides him. So I didn't have any chance to say what's on my mind.

My father already ended the call. Now let see how will you react. I look At Asher and found him sleeping. He must be really tired. I let him rest and I turned back my attention on the screen of my laptop.

I saw how my father panic, he dialed here, he dialed there. He was been calling all along. I sigh and just stare at my father panicking. Now you know what I mean when I told you to go home at the right time.

My eyes feels so heavy. I'll leave you panicking father. I put my laptop and phone on the desk beside me and just fix myself on the bed. I slowly hold the arm of Asher and get it off from my waist. He move and fortunately he turned his back on me.

I put two pillows as a boundary. I also go to bed and because I'm still sick. I immediately dozed off to sleep. The next time I opened my eyes its already morning. Asher is not in the bed anymore. I yawned and sit. I get my phone and.. What! Its already 7:40 a.m. I turned my phone back because I felt something.

And there's a sticky note in it. 'I'll be back before dinner. I already prepared you a breakfast. Take care yourself for now. From: your husband.' Husband? Wow! His annoying but why I'm smiling? Whatever. I put my hand on my forehead and I can say that I have a normal temperature now. I stand up and yes, I can now stand up on my own.

The first thing I did was explore his suite and I really love it! The interior is damn amazing. It's so classy. I am now at his open kitchen beside its is his dining. I already ate his omelette and its nice.

I opened the fridge and get the ingredients I needed. I need to repay him for the food he fed me. I will cooked for him my favorite Filipino food. The chicken Adobo. He can just reheat this.

I first boiled the chicken legs, I peeled potatoes cut onions and garlic. I also prepared soybean, vinegar a little sugar and a little red chilli.

And after 30 minutes spending on cooking, I'm done. I transfer it to a bowl and put it on the table and covered it. I found the sticky note that he used and a ballpen.

I'll write later. I washed the tools I used and put it on their right places. I wnet back on the dining table and write on the sticky note. 'Just reheat this baby. Eat well my husband. From: your wife' I was smirking while writing this and stick it to the cover of my adobo.

I take the sticky note with me and went to his room to take my laptop and phone. I opened the door of his bathroom and just fix myself. This is already okay. I went out to his bathroom and fix the bed then write a note and stick it on the middle pillow.

I get my laptop and phone and for the last time. I scanned the whole room. I can't believe it! I even have a handsome husband just because of my pride even if it just a temporary and not real.

I now went out to the main door of his suite and a hallway faced me. I closed his door and start to walk away. I hope our paths will never cross again Amadeus Asher Harlow.

I smirk while walking away remembering the note I left on his room.

'Thank you. Sleep well. From:Your former wife'
