4. Is it because of Shela?

"Oh, Madam, good morning. Sorry because I surprise you. Are you awake?" said the middle-aged woman with a friendly smile on her lips.

"Ah, yes, good morning. But ... you ..." I said hesitantly.

"Introduce, I am Yoo Minmin, the housekeeper in here. You can call me Auntie Yoo. Sorry yesterday I was back to my hometown so I could not welcome Madame."

"Oh... I see, I think there is only the two of Baekmyo and me in this house," I muttered.

"Madam, do you want to have breakfast right away?"

"No, I'll help Auntie Yoo first."

"But Madam..."

"Why? I just want to help of my own desire. Auntie Yoo clean this house all by yourself, it's very big and it must be hard to clean it till shine like this. So, let me help you, Auntie."

Finally Auntie Yoo surrenders. She let me help her to cook in the kitchen. Even though I am not good at cooking, I can at least cook rice and some of the easiest dishes to make.

"Auntie, what is Baekmyo doing exactly? What's his job exactly?" I asked suddenly. Maybe if it is a normal couples, it will be weird if a wife ask about her husband. But I am so curious what kind of job of that man, does he just have fun every night? Spends a lot of money which is I don't know from where.

Auntie Yoo looks surprised. My fault is ask about that, which is a wife should know better than other people. "You don't know, Madam?"

"Baekmyo... he never said about it to me, hahaha."

"Even to his wife, Young Master is very secretive. Huh... worked here for nearly five years... I don't know what kind of his job or where, Young Master works, but he can afford buy this house and a luxury car without the President Director's help."

"Is it true?" I am amazed to hear about that. "Could it be ... that he got the money from ... his night activities?" I muttered suspiciously.

"Madam... don't be like that! Young Master is lonely every day, almost every night he goes out of the house and comes back to home in the morning with drunk," said Auntie Yoo sadly. "I don't think he's going to be married for the rest of his life because his girlfriend broke his heart, but thank goodness he's married to you now, Madam."

It is proved, that woman doesn't know anything about her master's marriage. "Auntie, um ... Baekmyo ... did he ever bring a man here?"

Auntie Yoo glares at me. "Madam, Young Master is not like that," she whispered. "Even though they said that Young Master was a strange person outside, it seems like he is hiding a wound."

"Is it because of Shela?" I whispered. It seems that my opinion about Baekmyo is true.

"Gosh, you know her, Madam?" Auntie Yoo brings her lips to my ear.

"What are you gossiping in the morning?" It is a male voice from outside the kitchen.

We are surprised, Baekmyo suddenly appears and already sat at the dining table like a genie. He crosses his arms and glares at us with his legs crossed.

"Auntie Yoo, don't ever say anything about me to that woman! Or I'll fire you," Baekmyo threatened before sipped a cup of coffee on the dining table.

"Alright, Sir. I'm sorry," Auntie Yoo stuttered, as fast as she back does her jobs.

-o0o-

A day, I return to work as usual after a few days off for marriage and honeymoon, of course that is not the reason I use to ask for leave from the office. Want to get fired from my job? If I get fired, where is I get some money to pay for my younger brother's treatment?

I create up like a thief to my desk. Cover my face with my bag, afraid that someone will recognize my face. Don't forget, I've married Byun Baekmyo and our marriage has been reported everywhere. I am afraid that other people will recognize me as Baekmyo's wife, even though my face is different before and after makeup. Hopefully with a face without makeup, people donn't recognize me.

Even when reporters asked my name at the press conference, I used the pseudonym given by the President Director. Jasmine Lee, a career woman from London. In order to carry out that mission, the President Director was willing to buy someone else's identity.

Being an assistant designer, my salary isn't enough for my living expenses and Dongju. Possible, the money for living expenses becomes very short after Dongju was sick. But since a help of the President Director, the burden was lifted because of that marriage, Dongju has also been sent to America for more serious treatment.

I really hope he can survive.

After arrive at my desk and sat in a chair, then I can breathe easy. No one recognizes me. Then three women bring a cup of coffee and walk toward our department room while laugh, sometimes smile with joy. They are my co-workers, I call them the Gossiper Trio.

"The new CEO?"

"Yes."

"Yes, he smiled at me earlier. Ah, my heart is melting!"

"Ah, I really envy you."

"Even though Byun Baekmyo is a gay, if he is handsome like that I also wanna become his girlfriend."

"Handsome men is free."

Somehow they even chat near my desk and even one of them lean against the partition of my desk.

Is Baekmyo here? What's wrong? Asks the President Director for some money as people said? But Auntie Yoo said, he never once touched the President Director's money since broke up with his ex-girlfriend.

"But I heard he's married. His wife is very beautiful, have you seen the news?"

"Yes, she is very beautiful. I'm very jealous, if I am a little prettier than her, would he want to be my husband?"

"Beautiful? It's just a good make-up effect, maybe the photo was edited before uploading. Or she had plastic surgery."

"Ah, that's right."

I hear them initially soar, but suddenly one of them throws me down after praised me. Edited she said? Plastic Surgery? Is it seemed like a make-up effect? I think I am pretty enough even though I don't have makeup.
