Ryuchen immediately sees his wife's beautiful face when he wakes up in the morning and suddenly remembered what had happened between them last night that eased and brightened his day.
Chloe is mine. Finally.
Ryuchen removed the strand of hair that was blocking her beautiful face, his wife looks like an angel especially when she's sleeping. He kissed her on the forehead and hugged her tightly and can't get enough of her that he just wants to stay in their bed with her forever.
"Uhm."
Ryuchen slightly moved her away from his embrace when he heard her and saw that she's finally awake. She rubbed her eyes when she suddenly saw him beside her.
"Good morning, Mrs. Ajero." Ryuchen greeted with full of joy.
"Ryu-- Good morning." she greeted him shyly then covered her face with her hands.
He immediately removed her hands and kiss it.
"Are you still shy with me?"
She nodded causing him to chuckled.
His wife is really the most beautiful and the cutest in the world.
"Get used to it." then hugged her again. "And from now on, I will be the first person you will see when you wake up in the morning."
They lay in bed for a few minutes more before they decided to get up to eat breakfast.
She cooked something for them to eat while he was busy checking his emails in the living room.
Ryuchen really doesn't want to go to work, but he has no choice because he has a lot of work pending now. Chloe is working at his company now, so at least it's fine.
After she finishes cooking, they start eating together. They look like newlyweds which makes his heart flattered. After they ate, they were ready to go to work.
Ryuchen insisted that they will go to the company together, and Chloe couldn't do anything about it.
When they arrived at the company, she immediately went straight to the assistance office while he went straight to his office next door.
As before, even though he objected, they act as if they both don't know each other inside his company even though there is no use because all the employees know the truth.
When Ryuchen reached inside his office, he immediately spotted his assistant who looks restless.
"Robin, what are you doing there?" Ryuchen asked him.
"Mr. Ajero, Ma'am Liza is in the reception area." he said.
He just nodded and walk straight to his desk, he was about to seat when Robin spoke again.
"She's... with Lyka."
He frowned.
What is that woman's plan this time?
"You're finally here, Ryuchen!" Liza said cheerfully when he entered the reception area. "Lyka and I have been waiting for you, we also came here yesterday but the receptionist told us that you took two days break."
"Why are you here?" Ryuchen asked putting both his hands in his pockets, he didn't even want to look at them.
His gestures showed that he has no interest in dealing with both of them and he doesn't want to ruin his good mood either.
"Well... have a seat first." Liza said then patted the couch next to her.
"No need." he immediately refused. "I have a lot of work to do, so I won't be here long."
"Okay..." there was a trace of embarrassment on Liza's face, but it quickly disappeared. "I went here today because I heard from Lyka that she had a problem with her TV series."
Of course, I know that.
"She was suddenly removed in her role without further notice by the director. You are one of the investors in that series, aren't you? Why don't you get her role back." Liza added and smile.
Ryuchen wants to laugh at what Liza said.
Is she joking, why did he even dismiss her from the crew if he will just sent her back.
And he's just getting started.
"I mean, you're the biggest investors on that series. Perhaps Director Park and the other investors will change their mind once you say to bring Lyka back to being a female lead, and besides, breaching the contract will costs the investors a lot of money."
Ryuchen smirked at what she said.
He doesn't care if he spends a lot of money, the money doesn't matter to him if he will do it for his wife. Lyka needs to be thankful that he's doing things slowly, he promised that he will take everything that he gave to her before and the money that she will receive, from breached contract, will also disappear as soon as it reaches her.
"I can't help you with that."
"Ryuchen!" Liza said in shock causing his forehead furrowed.
"Ryuchen, please!" Lyka begged, she immediately approached him and hugged his arm which he immediately removed.
He feel disgusted.
"This will be the last time I will ask for your help Ryuchen, please. I know with just one word from you and I will be able to return to the crew again."
Isn't she really shameless?
After what she did to his wife, she still has the nerve to face and beg him for help?
Ryuchen suddenly remembers his wife, he doesn't want her to misunderstand something if she finds out that Liza and Lyka came to his company.
Chloe will not say anything, but he knew she will feel hurt if she finds out that these two came to her company.
"You're just wasting your time here." Ryuchen said then turned to Robin who was still standing behind him. "Take them outside."
"Ryuchen!" Liza said angrily. "Lyka is your girlfriend, right? How could you say such things. You will only do a little favor, but you can't help her?"
Ryuchen looked sharply at Liza, causing a chill run down her spine.
Who is she to shout at him? She is not even his mother. Is it because he got along with her before, that she thinks that she can now raise her voice to him?
Doesn't she know who he was?
"I think you forgot something, Liza." he said, annoyed. He no longer respects her as his father's lover anymore. "That woman is not my girlfriend, she never was and will never be. And besides, I already have a lovely wife." he shifted his gaze to Lyka. "And I will never help those people who want to hurt or ruin my wife."
Lyka's face become pale.
She understand now why she was suddenly removed from the crew, she knew that Ryuchen already found out what she did to his grandmother's birthday and her collusion with Jeremy to ruin Chloe's reputation.
"Now, leave!" he said angrily.
"Ryuchen, how could you do this to your... girlfriend?" Liza groaned, trying to emphasize the word girlfriend.
"Are you deaf or dumb? Can't understand English?" he asked sarcastically. "That woman is not my girlfriend. And if you want to stay with my father, better keep your mouth shut. No one will think you're dumb if you don't speak. Now, OUT!" then he marched out of the reception area leading to his office.
"You--!"
"This way..." Robin said, stopping Liza from following Ryuchen, he extending his arm to the door leading to the hallway. "Please
"Aunt Liza." Lyka said, her face was pale. "Let's go."
"But..."
"It's fine, Aunt."
