Cerulean Blue Sleeveless Dress

“Your name?” a woman who’s wearing a dress, has pale lips and short hair asked me. I stuttered. “L-Livia Washington, ma’am,” I answered. “My husband and I can’t produce a child. I need your help and in exchange, I will reward you with money at your price. Just help me…” she said, her face screaming desperation and almost pleading. Without further hesitation, I nodded my head. “Just tell me what you want me to do, Ma’am…” I didn’t know that an offer I would be accepting would ruin the pipe dream I yearned for. Money. I need money. Surrogacy is the only quick way to get a billion dollars just like what they offered. However, things didn’t go the way I liked. “You came out with a woman again?” I busted out in anger after waiting for Archer to come home. He only scoffed, he was supposed to come upstairs yet I held his hand. “Just to remind you, Archer, you still have a wife waiting for you!” His jaw clenched then took his arms roughly. “Then you should have thought of your husband before cheating on me, and bearing someone else’s child, then, Livia!” he backfired, critically narrowing his eyes on mine. Being married to Archer for five years never became easy. I’m tired of it and was tormented with the punishment he had given to me. “A divorce won’t happen, Livia. I won’t give you the freedom you want. This is your punishment,” he narrowed his rough, stoic voice before coming to his room directly.

"Nice to meet you, Raine," I forced a smile, but as soon as she was out of sight, I muttered under my breath, "Bitch." Well, it's true, she was wearing such a skimpy dress! I didn't realize that's Aiden's type now! I shook my head at Arden. "Babe, I need to use the restroom." Arden nodded. Before I could make my way to the restroom, I had to pass by the entertainment room where Aiden and his girlfriend were. Annoying! Even though I didn't glance at them, I couldn't escape their peripheral vision. Aiden had his arm around Raine, but it wasn't just a simple arm around her; his hand was inside her dress. Maniac! Isn't he afraid that our parents might catch them?! And this Raine, she's already letting Aiden touch her as his girlfriend. Where's her decency...? I splashed my face with water as soon as I entered the restroom, but my eyes widened when I saw Aiden waiting for me. I was about to avoid him when he pushed me back inside. I immediately slapped his chest. "Can't you leave me alone? What nonsense are you going to do now?" I scolded him sternly, but my voice was weak, and someone might hear us. "Get out of here! Don't block the door, and I'm leaving." I was about to push him away when he grabbed my wrists and switched our positions. Now, I was leaning against the door, and his body was pressed tightly against mine. "Aiden, what are you doing?" I reprimanded him, but he didn't listen. He grinned at me and lowered his face to meet mine, claiming my lips once again. Damn!
