My Wife is an Aloof Beauty

"Really? I hope you are right." Leena smiled bitterly. She believed that Kevin had never dated anyone before her but also knew that it was most likely because he was in love with Daisy. Just the thought of it made her heart cringe.

"What are you two doing here? I was looking for you everywhere." It was that baritone voice that made both Leena and Lee turn to where it came from. It was Kevin in his casual clothes. He didn\'t wear his uniform since he took the day off. Despite the casual look, his strong built resulting from his long term training in the army could hardly be concealed.

"Is there anything you want me to do, sir?" replied Lee hastily. He was obviously desperate to end the discussion of his romantic life with Leena.

"Yes, a few of our guests are drunk and I need you to drive them home once the party is over," said Kevin as he watched the two people before him. He was wondering if they were talking about him before he arrived. He could still remember how fast Lee blurted out his little secrets in front of Leena and how she couldn\'t hear enough of them yesterday.

"Got it, sir!"

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I\'m alive, I\'m still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

after they got married made her think that he was indeed in full control.

"Relax, I know what I am doing to my body. Now let\'s go inside. The guests will be leaving soon. We should see them out." Kevin stood up first and then held his hand out to Leena and waited for her to take his hand.

"Okay." It took Leena some hesitating moments before she reached out for Kevin. Regardless of how many doubts she had, there was no way for her to resist his charm and fall for him all over again.

Minutes more and they both found themselves standing by the living room\'s gate while bidding goodbye to their guests. Since most of the people who came to the party were Kevin\'s relatives and friends, Kevin did all the talking while Leena only stood beside him as she flashed her sweet smile.

Leena finally loosened up after all the people were gone and the room was cleaned. It had been a huge burden for her to stay in a room full of people she needed to please. She felt relaxed now as there were only Shannon and her left in the room.

"I think we are all done here. Go upstairs and have some rest, Leena. I will stay here for another few minutes and prepare some hot tea for your father. He had quite a few glasses of wine tonight." Like Leena, Shannon also felt relieved that she didn\'t have to play the perfect hostess anymore.
