A man for a perfect timing.

Few days passed.

Alex and Caro lived like strangers inside the house. She never stopped taking care of Henry. But no more wife duties for Alex. 

That morning, her fingers ran through her closet, searching for a suitable outfit to wear but found none. For the past five years she's been with Alex, he doesn't care about her. She couldn't even boast of one good dress, shoe or bag.

Tears almost dropped out of her eyes. She swallowed hard. Bella had left that night after mocking her, Alex did nothing either. She needed to plan out a sweet revenge but how?

On the spot, her fingers caught an old pink silky dress. A gift from her late mother. She fits it on her body, glaring at herself on the mirror. It didn't look new anymore but that could be a perfect one judging from her closet.

Few days back, she had submitted her CVS in few companies waiting for a call back. Alex stopped her from working when they met, she accepted because she loved him but not any more!

She's going back to her normal life and hoping to meet someone who truly loves her.

Suddenly, her phone rang, repeatedly. Driving her away from her sad thoughts. A lady's voice spoke over the phone.

Samantha.

"Hello sweetie" 

"Samantha, I was..." Caro tried to speak before Samantha cut her in.

" I just drove pass the glam media house. And I saw Alex, your husband, with that bitch. He's shamelessly kissing her in public. Caro what are you still doing with that man?"

There was silence over the phone. Caro couldn't speak. Her fingers trembled. This must have been going on, all these while but because he doesn't let her go out.

 She was just finding out few days ago.

"She doesn't deserve you caro. Gosh!" Samantha screamed.

"Send me the address!"

"Okay but please be careful honey. I have an emergency. I've gone to see my mother!"

"Okay. Do take care. We'll speak later." Caro dropped the phone.

She wore the pink dress, an old worn out shoes, she'd managed to clean neatly. Styled her hair and applied some lipstick. Staring at herself on the mirror, she breathed and then dashed into a cab.

Soon after she arrived the media house with the directions Samantha had sent. She stormed in to the building. 

Seeing some photographs on the wall as she walked in, she noticed Bella had come for her photoshoot. For years, she's been a signed model hired by different brands. She's rich, flashy hot, gorgeous. Caro remembered how Alex had once told her of how bella sleeps with different men to get jobs and doesn't deny it.

They had countless issues because of it and when she couldn't put up to Alex's nagging,  she abandoned her son and left. Picking her job over her son, Alex asked for compensation which led her to be providing support for the child. Alex being over pampered with Bella's money became lazy to get job and tuned liability to her. Hereby succumbed to all Bella's demands and never argued, so money could keep flowing in for him. Caro hissed and kept walking furiously, the hard clack of her heels echoed as she walked.

Instantly, Caro froze at the silhouettes before her. The lights are the room flashed at her gaze, she quickly shielded her eyes with her palms. Before her were cameras, multiple flash lights and photographers. Her supposed husband, Alex, shamelessly helping Caro style her dress, like some maid. Fixing her shoes, randomly dropping kisses on her randomly, smiling like a fool. Caro sighed and shook her head.

Then matched towards them heavily like a storm. Furiously. She was going to drag her down, create a scene and destroy her face but disappointedly for her Alex sighted her from distance, he knew he'd messed up again and heaven would fall today. He quickly rushed out of the space, grabbed caro by the arms and dragged her away from the shooting room. 

They halted at the receptionist space, before Caro pulled away from Alex's grip.

"Alex you are shameless."  Caro yelled out fearlessly. For the first time being fearless before Alex. She swallowed her fears facing him boldly.

"What are you doing here? You should never come outside. I warned you...... Why did you disobey me?" His voice breathing deep as he uttered low but sudden.

Caro saw he was unapologetic and had put it to her face. She felt unwanted like a piece of shit. She wasn't going to banter words anymore with him, so she quickly masked all the rage on her expression and put up a fake smile.

"I'm here to see my rich boyfriend. I've missed him you know." .

"Your what?" 

"My boyfriend" she slammed harder again. Brows going up.

"You slut! You've been cheating on me? I tried everything to provide for you and y....."

In a flash, a young man walked in asking for the receptionist who just left her desk. He looked tall, broad-shouldered with sharp jawline, piercing blue eyes, perfect curled hair, tailored suit, confident stride, and irresistibly commanding presence.

Caro's heart fluttered at that instant. Her stare softened, seeing the handsomeness before her. She rushed to him immidiately shielding his body with hers, then gave him a sign language using her eyes, pleading for him to play along.

But seeing the expression on the young man's face, she felt like she hasn't convinced him enough, then she showed him some cash on her hand.

She then stepped closer to him making her lips brushed his. Alex froze behind her watching, eyes widening, hardening with rage. His body was going to explode with those patience he was holding back.

Caro shut her eyes tightly hoping for the unknown man not to disappoint her.

She kissed him once, then stopped and stared into his eyes, biting her lips tight. Her feet felt like they were going to collapse to the ground but to her surprise, he grabbed her tight on the waist and kissed her, hard, quick and desperate.

This was more than what she planned. And Bella was already standing beside Alex now.

"So this is who she has been cheating on you with Alex!"

" I knew she was a slut but not this shameless." 

Caro hearing the voices, spun to them now, laughing whole heartedly. "Why are you pained Alex? Don't be honey. Go home with your ex wife and nanny her. I'm done with you!" 

"That's not possible. And I want to see you at home right now!" Alex voice roared like lion. He stumbled out angrily with Bella, the sound of his boots echoed from distance, caro smiled and turned to the young man.

" Thank you so much. And by the way, you're a good kisser." She smiled glaring directly into his eyes. She dipped the money into his side pockets and ran out.

Abruptly, a man creeped out, neatly pressed suit, slim frame, clean-cut hair, polished shoes, and sharp glasses framing attentive, intelligent eyes. He looked like he was in his fifties but don't look it. He'd been watching from behind with the papers he wanted to hand over to his boss.

"That was incredible sir. who was the young lady? I’ve never seen you kiss anyone before, that was a breathtaking kiss Mr Alberta. No wonder even a stranger paid for it.”

For a moment, Alberta felt awkward, knowing his personal assistant had seen him play stupid. He needed to keep his powerful and commanding expression. He moved the air immidiately.

"Menson...."  Alberta called.

"Sir" 

" Hand me the papers." His brows ridged as he took the papers from him." Inform the acting chair that I have arrived. I want to see him immidiately. Check my next meeting and make it quick, I have some other places to be."

"Okay sir"

Alberta turned and walked away, his step was deliberate, polished shoes echoing with authority, the sharp rhythm filling the silence like a gavel. His tailored suit swayed with controlled power, presence lingering even as the door shut firmly behind him.
