Taming My Arrogant Husband

Chapter 99: The red spot

I woke up alone the following morning feeling the exhaustion all over my body. I tried to get up but...

"Ouch!"

I bit my lip and gripped the sheet tight as I felt the stinging pain in the lower part of my body. I noticed

the red spot on the sheet before I decided to wrap it around me. I tried to stand but my legs were like

jelly, so I ended up sitting back on the edge of the bed.

"Argh! Come on, Sophia, you can do it! You have to go to the bathroom before your husband enters the

room." I took a deep breath after encouraging myself and tried to stand up again.

Even though my whole body hurts, I couldn't help but smile as I remembered the happenings from last

night. Daniel was right when told me about 'the best night' thing because that was the best night I have

ever experienced in my life. I am now a complete woman, and I'm proud to say that I lost it with my

husband, the man I love.

After almost thirty minutes in the shower and relaxing my body in the bathtub, I am now feel energized

and the pain in my lower body eased.

But as I got out of the bathroom, my eyebrows creased in confusion as to what I am going to wear

today.

I opened the first closet door near the bathroom and I couldn't believe my eyes with what I saw. There

are the clothes he brought me, folded neatly inside the cabinet. There are also the shoes, bags and

accessories he gave me, arranged in sizes and colors inside the drawers.

"Whoa!" And slowly, the wide smile breaks through my lips. "Now tell me you don't love me and I am

just a woman who has nothing to do with you, Mr. Kelley."

I picked up the purple sundress and white flat sandals that I saw from the drawer.

Once I finished checking myself in the mirror, I decided to go out and explore the whole suite as I didn't

get the chance to do it last night. But I was just taking my third steps down the stairs when I heard

muffled voices coming from the first floor.

And together with my other best friend (curiosity), I followed the voices where it came from and

surprised to see who the owner was.

"Nanay Emily!" I squealed excitedly that made her turn towards me with the two other maids in the

dining room.

"Sophia."

I rushed to her and hugged her tightly. It's been almost three months since I last saw her and Tatay

Berto, and that was when they helped me escape from Ben and his security team.

"I missed you, Nanay Emily."

"I missed you too, Anak. How are you?" She asked when I pulled out from her embrace. "I heard what

happened to your father and I'm sorry we're not there to support you."

I smiled, holding her hands.

"It's okay, Nanay. I and my family are now slowly moving on from what happened, and about the people

who caused us pain and suffering over the years, they now received what they deserved."

"That's good to hear, Anak." She smiled, cupping my left cheek. "How about you and your... you know...

sweetheart?"

My face turned into crimson red when she winked at me.

"Nanay Emily..."

"I'm happy for you, for both of you. Finally, the thing that I longed wish for you has happened."

"How did you know I'm here?"

"I heard your voice last night and I knew---"

"Oh, my God! This is so embarrassing." I covered my face as I felt myself blushing again in front of the

old woman.

"It's all right, Sophia, you don't have to feel shy about it." She winked before giving me a chuckle.

"Anyway, do you know where Daniel is, Nanay? I haven't seen him since I woke up this morning."

"Ohh... he received an emergency call this morning. He said something urgent happened on the site of

their new construction project and he had to deal with it. But don't worry, he told me to take care of

you."

I just nodded and smiled, though deep inside, I couldn't help feeling disappointed that after what had

happened to us last night, he just left me there, exhausted. He didn't even mind waking me up to tell

me that he had received an emergency call and he had to go to work despite that I was in his bed, still

sleeping and woke up feeling sore all over my body.

"I see, he really had to go to work." I mumbled unconsciously.

"Sophia, don't think about it too much. Believe me, if it it wasn't just an emergency, he didn't really want

to leave you, he just had to go there."

"It's okay, I understand." I shrugged, waving my hands in the air. I wish my heart could also understand

what she said.

"Anyway, do you want to eat your breakfast now? Wait, I'll prepare your ----"

"No, Nanay Emily! Thanks but I'm not hungry." I grabbed her hand when she was about to go to the

kitchen counter.

"But you have to eat, Sophia. Daniel told me to cook your favorite chocolate waffles."

-'He knows it's my favorite'-

I sighed before shaking my head.

"Where are we, Nanay Emily?"

I asked, ignoring what she said. I don't know but I couldn't help feeling disappointed although she

already explained to me why Daniel had to go to work.

"We are in his penthouse on the top floor of the KI Corporation building.

"W-What? P-Penthouse?"

My eyes widened in shock. And then I remembered that we parked in his private parking lot last night.

"So that means his office is just under this floor?"

"Yes, but he's not there at the moment."

"I didn't know he has a penthouse on top of this building."

I sighed, walking towards the large glass window in the living room. I know she followed me as I heard

the sounds of her footsteps behind me.

My heart stopped beating for a second when I saw the beautiful city of Los Angeles.

"Is it true that he has already sold the house where I used to live for the last few months?"

I asked not bothering to turn around. I just kept watching the people passing through the busy streets

down the KIC building. They looked like ants from where I stood... so small and walking in line.

"Yes, the time he came back from Italy."

"But why?" My head snapped towards her.

"He has his reason, Sophia."

"Do you know what's his reason for doing that? I mean, his purpose why he had to sell the house!"

"I'm sorry, Anak, but I think the question wasn't meant for me to answer."

"But Nanay Emily...?"

She smiled and came forward to me before taking my hand.

"Why don't you ask him? I'm sure he will tell you the reason."

I just sighed and forced a smile.

"I think I'll just wait for him to tell me."

"If that's your decision." She nodded.

"Sophia girl!" Craig came to my office, squealing and rushed to my desk.

"Why do you seem so excited?" I asked raising an eyebrow.

"Guess who I saw in the parking lot!"

"Who did you see in the parking lot?" I rolled my eyes.

"Your sweetheart!"

"W-What?"

"I saw your sweetheart, slash your husband, slash your man, he parked his car in front of the studio!"

"Are you sure?" I gulped as I suddenly felt conscious of how I looked. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

"Yes, and I'm sure he has already entered the studio and is heading to your office!" He screamed that

made me also screamed in excitement.

"Oh, my God!"

I muttered as my heart began to hammer inside my chest. I got up, not knowing what to do. I don't

know what I should pick up first... my lipstick, my hairbrush, my powder or my cologne?

And since I was busy checking my things, I didn't notice the devilish grin that played on Craig's lips

until...

"Just kidding!"
