View MoreDirinya begitu terkejut ketika melihat Ethan sudah berjalan ke arah ranjang tepat dimana Evelyn berada. Bagaimana Evelyn tidak terkejut? Selama 2 tahun menikah, Ethan baru kali ini menginjakkan kaki di kamarnya.
"Ethan... Apa yang kau lakukan di kamarku—"Belum sempat Evelyn menyelesaikan kalimatnya, Ethan sudah membekap mulut Evelyn dengan sebuah ciuman."Kau... Kau bau Alkohol!" Evelyn mencoba mendorong tubuh Ethan yang kini sedang berusaha mencumbu bibirnya.Ethan mendorong wajahnya memberi jarak. Ditatap lekat wajah Evelyn dengan mata sayu. "Alice, kau akhirnya kembali selama 2 Tahun menghilang. Aku... Aku rindu," Lirih Ethan sambil satu telapak tangan Ethan mengusap lembut pipi Evelyn.Deg!Seperti sebuah hujaman pisau mengoyak dada, saat Sang Suami menyebut nama Wanita yang notabenenya adalah Mantan dari Ethan. Tidak heran, selama 2 Tahun, Ethan baru memasuki kamar Evelyn. Ternyata, Ethan sedang merindukan mantan kekasihnya itu.Evelyn mendorong dada Ethan dengan kuat. "Aku bukan Alice! Tolong menyingkir!" pekik Evelyn."Ethan! Apa yang kau lakukan?!" Evelyn menjerit saat Ethan merobek piyama yang dikenakan oleh Evelyn dari arah depan."Layani aku." Pinta Ethan dengan suara Serak yang terdengar begitu seksi."Tidak! Kau sedang mabuk! Dan... Dan aku bukanlah Alice!" Evelyn mencoba menolak.Tidak menghiraukan ucapan Evelyn, Ethan dengan liar mulai menjamah tubuh Evelyn dengan paksa. Ethan memberikan ciuman-ciuman kecil pada tubuh Evelyn yang sudah nampak terekspos hingga tubuh Evelyn pun menggeliat saat mendapat serangan dari Suaminya.Entah bagaimana, helaian-helaian di tubuh dua makhluk itu pun kini telah polos tanpa satu kain pun yang menempel di tubuh mereka."Ethan, tolong, jangan lakukan ini," rintih Evelyn saat Ethan sudah mulai menggagahi Evelyn."Alice, aku menunggumu terlalu lama, mengapa kau pergi meninggalkanku? Dan sekarang, kau hadir setelah dua tahun?" Ethan meracau sambil terus memanggil-manggil nama Alice saat dirinya kini sedang menikmati tubuh Evelyn.Evelyn menutup matanya dengan kedua sudut mata kini menetes bening kristal. Perasaannya begitu perih saat Ethan tidak pernah menganggap kehadiran dirinya selama 2 tahun mereka menikah. Sekuat apapun Evelyn berusaha menjadi seorang Istri yang baik, hal itu yang dilakukan oleh Evelyn adalah hal yang sia-sia."Ethan, aku bukan Alice. Aku Evelyn, ku mohon, sekali saja kau menganggapku Istrimu," Gumam Evelyn di sela tangis saat Ethan tengah menggagahinya.Di dalam dingin dan kegelapan malam, Ethan kini menerkam Evelyn dengan serakah. Mencoba melewati setiap inci kulit Evelyn dengan bibirnya lalu menjarah apa yang ada pada tubuh Evelyn.Pagi harinya, cahaya mentari mulai mengintip di balik tirai kamar dimana Ethan dan Evelyn masih terlelap dalam mimpi. Tangan kekar milik Ethan sedang memeluk tubuh Evelyn dengan erat.Perlahan, Ethan membuka mata. Sontak membuat Alis Ethan menyatu saat dirinya melihat Evelyn tidur dengan lelap di dalam dekapannya."Apa yang kau lakukan di kamarku!" Pekik Ethan dengan refleks mendorong tubuh Evelyn yang masih tertidur agar menjauh.Evelyn sontak terkejut karena tubuhnya yang tiba-tiba didorong.Evelyn menatap takut dengan pria yang kini sudah duduk menatapnya tajam. "Kau... Kau, yang datang ke kamarku. Dan ini adalah kamarku," jawab Evelyn tergagap.Ethan menyisir pandangannya. Seketika rahangnya mengeras. "Sial, apa yang aku lakukan dengan wanita menjijikkan sepertimu?" umpat Ethan dengan gusar turun dari tempat tidur dimana dirinya dan Evelyn semalam berbagi peluh.Evelyn hanya dapat tertunduk saat melihat Ethan memungut pakaiannya."Pakai pakaianmu." cibir Ethan.Evelyn dengan cepat melilitkan selimut putih pada tubuhnya, beranjak turun kemudian memungut pakaiannya yang berserakan di atas lantai."Temui aku di ruang kerja setelah ini." Tekan Ethan sambil memakai pakaiannya."Ba... Baik." Jawab Evelyn.Ethan pun berlalu dari kamar Evelyn begitu saja dengan raut wajah tanpa Ekspresi. Evelyn segera bersiap-siap untuk menyusul Ethan. Sebab, Ethan adalah pria yang paling tidak suka menunggu."Hah, harus sampai kapan aku bertahan dengan patung Es ini?" Gumam Evelyn.Setelah memakai baju dan membasuh wajahnya, Evelyn pun menyusul Ethan ke ruang kerja Ethan berada.Evelyn mengetuk pintu yang berada di hadapannya dengan perasaan was-was. Jika sampai Ethan sudah memanggil Evelyn untuk menemuinya, tentu ada sesuatu kesalahan yang dilakukan oleh Evelyn."Masuk!"Mendengar sahutan dari dalam, Evelyn membuka pintu ruang kerja Ethan dengan hati-hati. Evelyn dapat melihat pria Arogan yang tidak pernah senyum itu sedang menatap layar monitornya.Evelyn kemudian melangkah menuju ke arah meja kerja Ethan. "Ada apa kau memintaku kemari menemuimu?" tanya Evelyn.Ethan mengalihkan pandangannya ke arah Evelyn dengan wajah datar dan dingin. Begitulah Ethan kepada Evelyn selama 2 Tahun menikah, Ethan tidak pernah menunjukan kehangatannya kepada Evelyn.Srak!Ethan melempar sebuah kertas di depan Evelyn. Alis Evelyn mengerut sambil meraih kertas yang melayang lalu jatuh di atas meja."Ini apa?" Tanya Evelyn dengan tatapan polos ke arah Ethan."Tanda tangani perjanjian perceraian ini. Sebagai kompensasi, Aku akan memberikanmu 80 juta dolar sebagai tunjangan." sentak Ethan.Deg!Seperti dihujam oleh ujung belati di dada. Rasanya, daging di dalam sana terkoyak dengan rasa perih saat mendengar penuturan Ethan.Evelyn menatap ke arah Ethan dengan iris mata bergetar. Dengan tatap pandang tak percaya, Evelyn pun memberanikan diri untuk bertanya. "Ethan, apakah aku melakukan sesuatu yang salah?""Alice telah kembali. Dan dia ingin kita bercerai, karena dia benci melihatmu! Maka dari itu, aku ingin mengakhiri pernikahan konyol ini."Evelyn meremas kertas perceraian yang ia pengan dengan kuat. Nampak tangan Evelyn bergetar mendengar alasan Ethan ingin menceraikan dirinya."Kau menceraikanku hanya karena mantan mu telah kembali? Apakah sebuah ikatan janji suci pernikahan kamu anggap hanya sebuah permainan dan lelucon?" Ucap Evelyn dengan bibir bergetar.Ethan menatap ke dalam manik mata Evelyn dengan tatapan menusuk. "Wanita yang ingin ku nikahi itu bukan dirimu! Kau yang menjebakku lalu naik ke atas tempat tidurku. Dan menyiarkan skandal kita berdua di Media untuk memaksaku untuk menikahimu, Dasar wanita licik! Kau yang membuat Alice pergi karena Video skandal konyol yang terjadi di antara kita berdua!" Cibir Ethan.Evelyn menyadari hal itu. Tapi, di satu sisi, kejadian dua Tahun yang lalu bukan atas kemauan dirinya. Entah bagaimana bisa dirinya berada dengan Ethan dalam satu ranjang saat malam pesta pertunangan Ethan dan Alice sedang dilangsungkan."Ethan, harus berapa kali aku katakan kepada dirimu, aku tidak tahu masalah malam itu. Lantas, kenapa kau baru menceraikanku saat Alice kembali setelah dua tahun berlalu?" Evelyn mencoba menahan Air matanya yang sedari tadi ingin tumpah.The initially planned lunch that was supposed to happen among a few people ended up being a small party. Adding to the fact that it was the weekend, unexpected guests came filling up the large dining room of the large villa.The house belongs to Jeremy's parents, he also lived there when he was little before he left after high school."I thought you said your parent invited us over why then are these people here?" Diane whispered into Jeremy's ear as she looked skeptically at the pot-bellied man that just sat down not far from her."Listen everyone"Jeremy's Dad's voice rang out and was clear getting everyone's attention.The lunch was just about to start and they all seemed as confused as everyone present."I have invited everyone here because I have an important announcement to make. Once the last person arrives I will do so. Meanwhile, enjoy your meal". He concluded with a rarely-seen smile.If Jeremy hadn't known his father very well he would believe he might be forcing the smile b
At the opening of the door, Rhea brought down the iron chair on the head of the man while shaking with fear. A wave of relief passed over her as he went down in a heap. Bolting through the door, a long shrill of terror escaped her mouth as she bump into someone. It was dark and hard for her to see. The person held her in a strong grip before whispering hurriedly. "Shush!, it's me". Not believing her ears Rhea went into a phase of shock from disbelief. The bodyguard that had followed Benjamin turned on a flashlight putting some light into the darkness. "Rhea, can you hear me?". Benjamin shook her. Realizing she wasn't dreaming Rhea's lower lips shook slightly as she fought back tears. Hugging him tightly like he was going to disappear in the next second. "We don't have enough time, let's get out of here," Benjamin said lifting Rhea in his arms. "Bring him along," Benjamin said referring to Mark who was out cold on the floor. "How did you find me?" Rhea asked in a choked voi
Benjamin held his head in pain, debris from the bottle falling off.His lips tightened in annoyance.Before he could react fully to the attack, Mark rushed at him, toppling him over.They take turns turning each other over, at the sound of snapping bones Benjamin had overpowered Mark."You have made the worst mistake you could ever think of," Benjamin declared breathlessly in a coarse voice.Picking up his phone he hurriedly dialed a number."I need you to come somewhere right now, I will send the address". Benjamin said into the phone.Mark remained on the floor like he was lifeless.His breath comes in shallow intake.Yes, he has officially screwed up."I told you I won't leave until I get what I want, you should have remained in prison. Why have you come out?".Benjamin asked while rubbing the spot the bottle had hit him. His fingertips become stained with blood.'Shit!'.Benjamin continues to pace around the room where they currently are, looking around the room. He picked up a lo
Diane wasn't expecting the arms that went around her in an affectionate hug the moment she stepped out of her car."What are you doing here?" Diane asked while chuckling."I asked you to call but you never did, and I told you that I can't spend a day without you. Have you forgotten that?"."I'm sorry, I forgot to call. I wanted you to miss me a bit". Diane replied leading the way into the house."I intended to call once I have rested"."Well, I'm here now". "And you can see that I am fine, can you go back now?". Not believing his ears, Jeremy asked."Are you chasing me away?""Actually my curiosity brought me here, what was your mom's reaction?"Amongst many things she wasn't surprised, just worried"."That's nice but there is a problem"."What problem?""My parents want to see the two of us this weekend, on Saturday precisely". Jeremy's face reflects his thoughts matching that of Diane."Why had they invited us over?" Diane asked worrying her lower lip."Dan left early today, or d
"Is it Micheal?" Diane's mom asked in a voice filled with apprehension.Diane could feel her mom's fear as she stare down at the ring that occupy her middle finger."No, it's someone else". She replied, smiling as her face relaxed in relief."Who is it then? What is his name?What does he do?".Rosalind could not help the curiosity that overcame her.The last time she had set her eyes on her daughter she had been broken, she will not be happy to witness that again but God knows she is happy for her."His name is Jeremy, I work for him.You will know all you want to know when you meet him". "Sweetheart, are you sure about him?" Rosalind's voice shook slightly as she asked the question.Diane release a shaky breathe, she knew what her mom is scared of. She is also scared but the trust she has in Jeremy made her smile reassuringly at her."I'm very sure"."Congratulations dear, I'm so happy for you". "Thank you, Rosalind". Diane replied, getting a burst of loud laughter out of her.~
Diane chuckled as she listened to Jeremy's grumpy voice from the phone. He sounded like a mistreated kid."Why don't you want me to go with you? don't you want me to meet her?" His voice shows how unhappy he is."Of course, you will meet her very soon. I just have some things to discuss with her" Diane continued in a reassuring voice."When will you be back?"."if I leave early I should be back before night"."Are you sure you will be fine?".Diane almost belts out in laughter at his question, she knows he is concerned but she just finds it excessive."Are you worried about me because you will miss me?"."I'm more worried about you sending someone to the hospital over there".His words rendered Diane short of a few seconds before she found her voice again."Jeremy!""I'm sorry, are you okay by the way?"."I'm good, you promised to let me know how Micheal was doing after checking on him"."How is he now?"."He is doing okay, I checked on him last night"."Enough about him, I am about t
