Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! ^_^
Clarice opened the door to her mansion as she was making milk for her and Joshua. She was startled to see several visiting men and women clustered in front of her mansion.Her eyes flickered, looking at them all one by one. "Wh–who?" asked Clarice, worried."Good morning. Are you Mrs. Archer, right? We are the servants and maids who will be working at Mr. Joshua Rich Archer's Mansion.""Sorry, but ... who hired you?" asked Clarice, wanting to be sure."I did."Suddenly Joshua appeared wearing only his pants, no top. He wrapped his arms around Clarice's neck, pulling her chin up for a kiss. "Good morning, Baby."The new maids and servants witnessed the scene. Joshua wasn't even ashamed to show his intimacy in front of them. Instead, he wanted to show them that this was what would happen if they worked with him."Jo–Joshua... they see us," Clarice whispered."Well, whatever you see of what my wife and I do, you should be used to it," Joshua said, telling them."Yes, Sir!" they said in u
Her life was like being a sex slave to him. She didn't know why she had such thoughts, but that's how she felt after getting married. She didn't know if Joshua married her for that thing or if he loved her.Sometimes she felt tired for a long time after having sex with Joshua. But she also couldn't refuse considering how cruel Joshua would be if he knew she refused him. Moreover, this was her duty as his wife.On the one hand, she also felt Joshua's deep love. Every day, every time, Joshua gave and showed how much he loved her. It was just that her mind was always negative every time Joshua asked her to make love."Maybe it's just my fear. I just don't want to overdo it. I already lost my first love, and if I love Joshua eventually ... then I have more feelings for him, I'm afraid I'll lose him as someone I love again. Well yeah, maybe it's just my fears," she said, talking to herself.Her gaze was straight out of her bedroom window, with only the blanket covering her naked body. Josh
"My Mom called to say that there will be dinner at home with the rest of the family. So, it looks like we won't be having dinner out this time. Are you okay with that?" Joshua said, informing her. Hearing the sudden news, Clarice swallowed as she sighed. "Okay." "Wait here. I need to use the restroom." Clarice waited in front of the men's restroom as she folded her arms. She looked at the people in front of her. She suddenly felt very nervous at the thought of being in her in-laws' house with their eyes on her. Yeah ... Joshua's family all knew that Clarice was Joel's girlfriend, not Joshua. But who would have thought that they would see Clarice married to Joshua? They must have thought that Clarice was either ignorant or shameless. "Clarice," suddenly a man's voice, which she hadn't heard or seen in a long time, appeared in front of her. Clarice's eyes blinked in surprise. She also checked to her right and left, afraid that Joshua might appear and see him. "Tristan ... you're
"Watch your mouth, Clarice! You're talking to your in-laws, your husband's parents!" said Terry, who looked annoyed with her.Clarice realized that she was the focus of attention of all the families gathered. A family that mostly blamed her, but a few supported her. But she wouldn't flinch just hearing and seeing how Terry behaved towards her. She just didn't like being belittled or laughed at by someone.She took a step forward, as she released Joshua's hand that was holding hers. "I came because of my husband. I've kept quiet enough for this long seeing how you treat me, Terry. And I won't let you, or anyone else smile or laugh at me and Joshua!"Terry widened his eyes. She had no words to reply to her daughter-in-law who looked angry at her. Moreover, she looked at Joshua who was just silent, watching them."Oh, c'mon! Let's just start dinner. It's a pity we're fighting before filling our bellies," Jenny, Joshua's cousin, was one of the more mature and supportive Clarice, mediating
"Why are you just asking now, Clarice?" asked Joshua in a very low voice.Clarice's breath caught. She knew she was wrong because she had just realized the difference in Terry and Frans' attitudes towards Joshua. And Clarice had only noticed the difference since she had been with Joshua. Because all this time Clarice's world was only with Joel."W–why?" she stammered back."I guess Joel never said anything about me to you. Or maybe he didn't want to tell anyone. Well, at least what my little brother did was good. He looked like he didn’t want anyone to know about our family matters.”The more Joshua said that the less Clarice understood what he meant. She wondered more and more what was going on in his head."I want us to go around and you to tell me," Clarice said, firmly.Joshua smiled wryly. "Woah. Why are you being so bossy all of a sudden, wife?""Please. I am your wife now, and I want to know!"Clarice looked so ambitious without seeming afraid of Joshua. Because she really want
During her time as a billionaire's wife, Clarice often woke up very early. She would always sneak in and make two glasses of milk for her pregnancy and also for Joshua. She tried to serve Joshua the best by replacing his usual coffee with milk. Joshua also never refused whenever Clarice made him milk. Instead, he finished it right in front of Clarice with two sharp eyes staring at her. That's what Joshua did every day. Clarice tried to be ready before Joshua woke up. Last night they had made love, just as Joshua had wanted to take a warm bath with her and make love too. Clarice knew that this morning there would be no morning sex because they had already had it last night. But again Clarice felt nauseous after she finished her shower. She threw up and tried not to make a sound because she didn't want to wake Joshua. This worried him and he took her to the gynecologist to check on her. "Ugh ... this is getting worse," Clarice whimpered when she saw that she had thrown up quite a lot
"Joana, do you have any ideas on how to make a woman happy with the gifts we give them?" Joshua asked Joana when he arrived at the office all of sudden. Joana stopped what she was doing when her boss suddenly came in and asked her such a question. It was not the first time for she to see and hear Joshua's behavior when he needed something from her, like advice. "I think I made a mistake with my wife," Joshua said, finally telling her the real problem. His boss was often reluctant to tell him the truth about what he had done wrong, but would instead phrase it as if he felt he had made a mistake. Joana chuckled at his words and shook her head. "As a friend, please, tell me your opinion," Joshua said, allowing Joana to act like a friend like it wasn't business they were talking about. "What kind of mistake did you make, Joshua?" asked Joana. Joshua recounted what had happened to him and Clarice when they met with Dennise. It all sounded plausible to Joana until when Joshua mentioned
"Thank you," Joshua said, suddenly.At first, he felt really provoked by Clarice's remark, which he didn't like. He didn't like it at all when someone commented on him, which had always been the case. But this time, and perhaps he would apply it in the future as well, he wanted to be able to control the fire within him.Clarice found it strange to hear him speak of thanking her. "For what?" she asked."You want to reveal how I am to you. I mean, the way I talk to you."Clarice didn't think much of Joshua's temperament. Even though at first it bothered her to hear it, she had become accustomed to it. But what was really strange and also big for Clarice was when Joshua said thank you to her. "If you want me to tell you all about your attitude towards me all this time, I'll tell you, Joshua."Joshua didn't answer. Maybe for tonight, he didn't want to hear anything just yet because he wasn't ready. He might be okay tonight, but he couldn't promise that in the future, even if he tried to
