I couldn't believe what I just heard.
There was a girl with him.
He was with someone else. Some other woman.Was this the work he was talking about?
That stupid piece of rotten bread.
He's again cheating on me!!I can't believe I was missing that cheater.
I was angry, I was hella angry and I wanted to break his handsome face at that time.But....but that anger came later.
My first instinct...it was the pang of hurt I felt. The pain I felt on hearing her voice.It hurt me.And the one thing that my mouth whispered was his name.
"Xander..."And then there was silence before he uttered my name...no not my name given by my parents...but the name I've grown to love...the name he gave me...the name only he called me.
"Triantáfyllo.

SCARLETT'S POV_______________________________________________________________________________________"You are my wife." He grunted out."Noo...not to you." I still pressed.Putting his hands on my shoulder, he sighed,"Triantáfyllo.... don't do this now. You are getting late for College. Come I'll drop you off."I looked at the time.Yeah, I'm late. Five minutes late and it's gonna take another fifteen minutes to reach College.It's obvious, I'm gonna miss my first class now which doesn't bother me much as the first is Economics and I really don't like it much.I nodded my head and we both walked out.I waited for him at the entrance.He brought his car from the garage at the back.I've never seen that garage. Well, I've never been in the back side of the mansion.I've never fully explored this place. I was so much busy in assignments and pr
THIRD PERSON'S POV_______________________________________________________________________________________"Nice to see you again, Maria." The other lady greeted mockingly."What. Do. You. Want. Karla?" Maria enunciated coldly glaring at the other lady...aka Karla."Oh me? What could I want?" Karla laughed evilly.She flipped a red card with golden writings on the outside and threw it on the small table besides her."An invitation..to my new year party. I'm sure you would love it.""I'm not coming." Maria chipped out."Ohh no.. you'll come when your beloved Xander will come..."Karla was cut off by Maria."Xander will also not come.""But he will. Because it's not just a New year party but also a get together for all the prominent businessmen around. The new deal he did with that Mr. Lee, yes, Mr. Lee will also be there and Xander will have to come." Kar
SCARLETT'S POV_______________________________________________________________________________________“WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?”He yelled out clutching his fists tightly.I was scared by this.I never saw him like this.But nonetheless I answered him.“It’s ...” I stared meekly but then it hit me there’s no reason for him to be angry.I’m also living here and I have every right to do whatever I want with the house.“What do you think it is? Can’t you see, Christmas decorations are these.” I spoke tauntingly moving my hands around the house.Oh wow! That rhymed....This is not the time to think how good you rhyme.My subconscious mocked me.But what you said also rhymed.Ohh no.no..this is definitely not the time to get lost in my head.Looking at him,
Xander's povWe came back early from the church.But I was still irritated at the way my stupid cousin tried to flirt with my wife.And she evensmiledat him.How could she?"Thank you." An angelic voice spoke beside me.We were at home now. I was doing my work in the living room.I didn't ask her again to remove all these decorations because I realized I may have over reacted.She doesn't know anything about me, my past.And I like how she feels free to do anything here. She regards it as her home. And that makes me happy.Our home.And I'm going to introduce to the world that she's my wife.This new year. After the party, I'll do that and would ask her for a new chance to this marriage.I'll remember what Badima said today.FlashbackTriantáfyllo was in her room upstairs getting changed.
THIRD PERSON'S POV_______________________________________________________________________________________"That lipstick stain was not of any other woman. It was of my wife.""What!"Scarlett was confused."What do you mean?" She asked him."The night of your reception party, Xander was in his office because of some emergency and I was out of the States in Australia for some business purpose. Beth, my wife couldn't reach me so she called Xander. She had a really severe pain in her stomach and when Xander reached, he picked her up to get her to the hospital. At that time, her lipstick mark accidentally got on his shirt. I'm really sorry for the being the reason of your misunderstanding, you guys fought because of a stupid thing..... I'm really sorry to ruin your wedding night and..."Before he could something more, she gushed him and spoke."How is your wife now? I mean she got to t
