CEO's Secret Husband
|55|. That's Not A Good Thing
After getting dressed, Maribel sat down leisurely in the back garden while enjoying the warm jasmine tea that Madam Diana had prepared for her.
The wind was blowing, it felt so calm. Maribel took a sip of her tea and her eyes were so pampered with the view of the large green trees and the beautiful white jasmine.
Putting the teacup on the table, Maribel took her phone and contacted Callie.
Callie was still in the company. Because Maribel takes time off, many things must be taken care of to make it overtime.
"Yes, what's the matter in calling me ma'am?" Callie placed the document on the desk and her hands nimbly danced over the keyboard with her eyes focused on the laptop screen.
He has connected Maribel's call with a Bluetooth earphone attached to his ear.
"You remember your sister's novel you confiscated?"
"Yes. Why?"
"I haven't read it until it's over"
Callie smiled amusedly, "Then why? Don't tell me you want to borrow it?"
Maribel chuckled, "If there's a time maybe I'll"
"Mom. don't you always have time?" Callie quips hard.
Maribel.
"That's actually the part that made me curious"
Callie's still typing fast, so keep your ears fixed to answer Maribel's chat, "Part?"
"Yes. I remember how the female lead was almost framed by the antagonist in the story with the dope that overheated her. But luckily he was saved by the main character of the man who immediately took him soaking in a bathtub of cold water"
"Then?" Callie didn't understand why Maribel suddenly discussed it.
"Do you know what kind of drug it is? What are the side effects? And.is it safe to use?"
Callie's hand immediately stopped moving on the keyboard, "Mom...why did you suddenly show this? Don't tell..."
Callie's suspicions were instantly acknowledged by Maribel.
"I want to use it a little for my secret husband. That's why I asked"
"Mom, you're kidding me!" Callie's voice rose an octave higher in surprise, "You seriously want to do just that?"
"Why indeed? He is my husband now . So why not?"
"That's the problem. She's so cold. Just kiss my lips she doesn't want to, what else do more than that" grumbled Maribel, half frustrated.
"..." - ".Callie's across the street, not knowing what to respond to.
"Callie's.."
"Um"
"Can't if Iā"
"No" Callie cut him off. He could immediately guess the way Maribel thought.
"I haven't even said it yet, why did you refuse so hard"
Callie let out a heavy sigh, "Because I've guessed your way of thinking ma'am"
Maribel was shaking her lips. He took a cup and sipped his tea which was no longer warm.
"After all, ma'am, if I may suggest, you should not use this method. Because.that's not a good thing ma'am. The man will reject you, considering how you forced him to marry you. In addition, do not make things that can make the man hate you even more"
"..."
"Haa, this is why I confiscated the novel from the hands of my sister, unstable teenagers are often curious and want to do something without thinking about the consequences that occur later. But you're different Mom.you're a grown woman and again.you're married"
Maribel had long been silent to Callie who was lecturing her.
"So please consider carefully, ma'am.."
The call ended.
Nah!
Maribel jerks. His eyes kept looking up. Found Aldrich already standing in front putting a P3k box on the table.
"This is a first aid kit in my country.it seems to work even if humans are using it" Aldrich took the P3K box from the box that Belinda's madam prepared for him which contained all kinds of medicines.
"Obati your palm with it" After saying that, Aldrich turned around. Thinking of going straight away.
But hearing it...
"May you help me use it?"
Aldrich continued to stop his steps.
