Misunderstanding
Gabriella Halim woke up in a luxurious room she didn’t recognize. When she looked in the mirror, she nearly fainted. Her face was still beautiful, but… more mature. She was no longer the twenty-year-old girl she remembered—she had become a thirty-year-old woman. Even more shocking, she had been married to Adryan Lewis for five years, a young, ambitious, and notoriously cold politician. Gabby immediately realized one thing: her husband hated her. Cold glares, cutting words, and an impenetrable distance left her bewildered. What had happened in the past ten years? Rather than crying or pleading for love, Gabby chose a different path: enjoying the luxury she now had. A grand house, wardrobes full of designer dresses, and an unlimited bank account. Why bother chasing love when life could be this comfortable? But the world of politics was never simple. Public scrutiny, rival political intrigues, and scandalous gossip forced Gabby to take on a role far greater than that of a mere “trophy wife.” And as Adryan began to notice the dramatic changes in Gabby, the question remained: would his hatred persist, or could it transform into something he never expected?

The gentle sunlight touched Gabby’s face, waking her from a deep sleep. She felt the suffocating warmth on her back. For a moment, she forgot where she was. Then, the memory of the night before flooded her mind: Adryan's hard body behind her, his large arm wrapped around her stomach, and the undeniable sensation pressed against her. She stirred slightly, feeling awkward about the unexpected intimacy, and tried to slip out of the embrace. However, the embrace was already gone. Gabby turned and opened her eyes fully. The spot next to her was empty. She looked across the room. Adryan was standing near the bedroom door, wearing a perfectly tailored dark gray suit. His hair was neatly combed, and he looked ready to face a day full of politics and power. He appeared utterly cold and distant, as if the warmth they had shared last night had never happened. He was checking his luxurious wristwatch. Gabby, still wrapped in his oversized T-shirt and hiding under the thick blanket, blinked

The next morning, Gabby and Adryan sat at the breakfast table, but neither of them spoke. The silence between them was so heavy that it felt like an invisible presence. Gabby focused solely on her plate, while Adryan stared at his tablet, occasionally sipping his coffee. Suddenly, Adryan put down his tablet. "We're going somewhere tonight," he said, his voice calm. Gabby looked up, her eyebrows furrowed. "Where?" "My parents' house," Adryan answered, his eyes meeting hers. "It's my mother's birthday today. Don't tell me you forgot?" Gabby's world seemed to stop. "I... I don't remember," Gabby said, her voice hoarse. Adryan sighed. "Just get ready beforehand. I won't dry your hair again like I did that time." Gabby looked at Adryan for a moment. "Fine," Gabby said lazily. 'Adryan only dried my hair, but he talks as if he saved my life.' The night sky was filled with city lights, and Adryan's luxury car sped toward the most exclusive residential area in Virginia. Gabby sa

Gabby left Adryan’s study after saying those words, leaving him with nothing but his confusion. She didn’t return to her bedroom. Instead, she walked into the living room, feeling a new surge of energy coursing through her. She sat on the sofa, closed her eyes, and tried to think about where to begin. She needed information. More than just what was on her laptop. She needed access to Adryan’s past. Suddenly, an idea struck her. Kevin. She walked back into Adryan’s office, now empty. Sitting at his desk, she pulled the tablet closer, searched for Kevin’s name, found his number, and dialed. “Hello?” Kevin’s voice came through, laced with confusion. “Mrs. Lewis? How can I help you?” “Kevin,” Gabby said, her voice calm but firm. “I want to ask you something.” “Of course, Ma’am” Kevin replied, tension clear in his tone. “What is it?” “How long have you been working with Adryan?” Kevin hesitated. “About seven years, I think, ma’am.” “Can you tell me about him?” Gabby pressed.
