Chapter 3

Two weeks later.

**Camille pov*

Asher allows me to go to the grocery shop other than that, am stuck at home.

I do the same thing every day. Have my bath, do the chores, eat, and sleep.

Honestly, am used to it. I only use my phone to call Annie. I have no other friend and am not the social media type.

It was 9:30pm and Asher isn’t back yet. Not like I care anyways. I laid down on the bed to sleep when I heard the sound of a car.

Oh, he is back!

I closed my eyes pretending like am asleep. Few minutes later, he heard him enter the room.

I opened my eyes to look at him and he caught me.

“I know you are not asleep” he said softly and I sighed and sat up on the bed.

“Welcome”

He simply nods taking off his jacket. My eyes moved to a box on the floor and I wondered what in it.

He strolled into the bathroom and my eyes landed on the box again.

Curiosity got the best of me and I walked over to it.

It wasn’t wrapped so it was easy to open. I opened it and it was, clothe?

I brought it out and stretch it to get a better view.

It’s a red off shoulder dress.

“Is it for me?” I wondered.

“It is for you” I heard Asher’s voice behind me and I flinched.

I turned to face him. A towel was wrapped around his waist. Water drip from his hair making him look dangerously cute.

He was still the same Asher just that his attitude towards me have changed.

“For me?” I asked.

“Yes. We are going out tomorrow” he announced and I gulped down nothing.

“My company is organizing a function and we are allowed a plus 1 so am taking you” He stated.

“What if I don’t want to go?” I asked folding my arms around my chest.

He moved closer to me and trailed his fingers on my face.

“Am in a good mood, camille. Don’t ruin it”

Before I could talk, he slammed his lips on mine. It was slow and passionate, I couldn’t help but reciprocate.

I wrapped my hands around his neck and deepened the kiss.

He might be a jerk but he is definitely a good kisser.

He carried me and laid me down on the bed still kissing me and then, he started undressing me.

**************

The off shoulder dress hung low at the neckline, showing off my flawless fair skin.

It hugged my curves, flaunting my small waist and endowed hips.

My make up was minimal, tinted lip gloss, eyeliner on my lids, fleeky drawn brows and a touch of powder.

I carried my purse and exit the room. Asher was in the living room dressed in a black tuxedo.

“I’m ready” I announced and he turned to look at me. His jaw dropped.

“Wow, you look beautiful wifey” he smiled.

I arched my brows. What’s up with him? He have been nice with me since yesterday.

Whatever it is, I love it.

We both left the house in his car with him driving.

In less than half an hour, they were at the venue.

The hall had a magnificent exterior, and guests and journalists swarmed the entrance.

Women dressed in beautiful gowns and men in suits.

Asher held my hand and we both walked in.

For the next 15 min, I was completely bored.

Asher kept introducing me to his business partners and i was bored of saying the same word. “It was nice meeting u too”

He led me to a table and brought soft drink for me.

“I will get you barbeque, wait here” He said and left.

Look who is been a gentle man today.

I sip the drink and look around. I saw a man whose back is turned to mine.

He is talking to a lady and then he turned and I froze.

A soft gasp escaped my lips.

*Don’t you think you are Drinking too much**

Of course, it is him!

Suited in a tuxedo, there was regality in his strides and authority in his demeanor.

He stared at me. Those blue eyes. Then he did the unexpected, he turned away like he doesn’t know who I am?

Is he kidding me right now?

He said a few things to the lady and walked away.

I quickly got up and followed him. Have been looking for all possible means to see him again and now that I have, he is going to act like he don’t know me, not happening.

“Hey, Mr” I called but he didn’t stop walking.

I sprinted and ran in front of him, he wasn’t expecting it and he ran into me making me run into his arms.

I blinked and my heart skipped a bit. His arms were wrapped around me and I love the smell of his cologne.

Am happy we are not in the hall again else we would have created a scene.

He quickly disengaged pulling back from me.

I breathe out heavily. “Hi”

He said nothing and just nods expecting me to say something.

Who the hell is he?

“Do you remember me?” I asked.

“I don’t know you” he answered bluntly.

“Seriously? We were both drunk and then we....”

He interrupted me. “Excuse me, young lady, I need to go somewhere”

He made to walk away but I blocked his way.

“So you are just going to act ignorant right? You had sex with me and you ..”

“Keep your voice down” He said.

“So now, you know me”

“I don’t, you are speaking gilberish. I need to go and don’t try to stop me anymore.”

I was about to say something when I heard a familiar voice call me.

I looked up to see Asher. He walked towards us and look in between me and the guy.

“I was looking for you” Asher said to me and then faced the guy.

“Oh Asher! I thought you wouldn’t make it” He said and my eyes widened.

They knows each other?!

“I told you I will..., Anyways”

He wrapped his arms around my shoulder and smiled.

I felt uncomfortable due to the fact the guy is watching us.

“This is my wife, Camille. Camille, meet my boss, Harry. The Ceo of the company I work with”

I suddenly went numb. Are you kidding me?!

The man I had sex with few days ago is my husband boss.

How come I don’t know this?

***how are you suppose to know? Do you work in the same place with your husband** that was my subconscious again.

“Camille” Asher’s voice lapse me back into consciousness.

“Yeah?”

“Are you okay?” He asked.

Oh, so he cares.

“Yes. Why?”

“You zoned out”

“Ooh” I uttered and turned to find Harry still in front of me, his hands tuck in his trouser’s pocket.

“I would be leaving now. You guys have fun” He said and glancing at me, he left immediately.

I turned to Asher looking at me with a slightly angry look.

“I told you to stay there but you just choose to disobey and move around. Were you planning on flirting with my boss?”

I paid no attention to Asher. He can continue blabbing. Have had enough shock for one night.

Firstly, I met the man I unknowingly had sex with and he denied knowing me and it turns out he is my husband’s boss.

Oh, someone shoot me!
