Ethan was able to teach Stacy all the things that she needed to know. He guided her for the past 2 weeks and showed her the company. Now, she could assume her duties in the company. He also introduced her to the staffs and to some important figures as well as the people she needed to help her run the White Lotus department. Ethan was about to hire some people whom she would be needing such as personal assistant and secretary but she declined. She insisted to choose for her own. Ethan didn't press the matter further since he trusted her wife.
Aisha on the other hand asked her friend Lisa to be her secretary and Caleb as her personal assistant. Caleb refused at first but if you look at it in a bigger picture, this was actually a good chance to protect Aisha from all threats, so he accepted it.
Aisha needed to increase her dominion. She needed more hands with the threats lurking around her and her family. She needed Caleb's skills and abilities. Caleb specialized in creating warfare tactics against the enemies. He was also good at fighting. She could trust him with her life.
Lisa on the other hand was good at keeping her job as a fashion designer. But she needed her to maneuver the computer. She needed a hacker and an I.T expert. Though it was not in her resume but she was good at it.
Keeping these people with her would definitely strengthen her. At least Lisa extended her hands to help Aisha.
***Aisha needed to go at Ethan's office coz she needed to present him her first project--- the expansion of the White Lotus in the North Side Country (her home-place). She could actually ask Lisa to do it but she preferred to see her husband too. But to her surprise, Angel was sitting in his lap kissing him. Her face darkened!
"S-Stacy?!" Ethan suddenly stood up when he saw her entered. He was surprise to see Stacy come to his office. Angel stood up smirking.
"Honey, I-I can explain! It's not what you thi------". Ethan was perplexed while Angel was smiling from ear to ear behind him. Aisha glared at Angel but it didn't move her. Angel seemed to be enjoying the scenario.
"Mr. Williams, I came to give you this. I hope you can look at our project proposal and give us your recommendations." Aisha cut him as she formally spoke. Ethan creased a brow. Why did she suddenly talk to him formally? He felt like she was treating him as a boss not a husband. It should be since they were in the company. But it was the very first time that Aisha spoke to him formally without looking at him. He was afraid.
"Stacy…" He was about to approach her but she stepped backwards.
"I'll see myself out then, Mr. Williams. Please review it and then give your feedback as soon as possible." She was not looking at him. She placed the files on top of his desk and then she left.
"Ethan, she doesn't even care." Angel held his arm as she spoke sweetly at him.
"What have you have done?!" Ethan was so angry at her. He shrugged her hands then he commanded her to leave the office instantly. Angel smirked as she left.
Ethan's mind was in chaos. He was perplexed. He didn't know what to do. He didn't know what to tell Stacy. Was he going to tell her that he didn't want to? Would Stacy believe him? It was true that Ethan didn't want to. He was so surprise when Angel sat on his lap and hastily kissed him forcefully. He was actually trying to avoid it, he was trying to push her away but Angel clung to his neck tightly. That was the time that Stacy came in.
*** Meanwhile, Aisha couldn't hold on to her emotion any longer. She wanted to cry. Her heart hurt so much. It felt like her heart was about to explode. Or should she say something was ripping her heart?
When she saw them kissing, she felt like an ice bucket was thrown at her. She wanted to kill that woman, she wanted to hit Ethan but she kept her composure. She was in Ethan's company. She decided to speak formally. After all, Ethan was her boss. But when she came out, she rushed to the comfort room and let her tears flow.
She was scolding herself. She tried to prevent her tears from flowing. She couldn't afford someone to see her with a big eye bags.
"He is not your real husband. You don't have the right to get mad. Ethan doesn't need to explain anything to you. He should be explaining to the real Stacy. It was Stacy that he loves, not you Aisha." She kept scolding at herself. She was even sadder when she remembered that she didn't have any right to claim him. She couldn't even give her body to Ethan. Maybe Ethan was longing for that kind of intimacy. And since she couldn't give it to him, he was looking for another woman to satisfy his flesh. She teared up at the thought of Ethan with another woman in bed.
"He is not mine but he is my sister's husband after all. I have to protect him from that woman!" She encouraged herself.
She came out from the cubicle where she sat for more than 10 minutes. She was fixing her face when a familiar face entered the female comfort room. She didn't mind her at first but Angel kept provoking her.
"Angel can I speak with you for a minute or so? --- in my office?" Aisha faced her.
They went to her office. Lisa and Caleb were sitting inside her office waiting for her. When they came in, she asked them to wait for her at the coffee table just outside her office. They saw her big eyes. She must have been crying for a while. They went outside.
"What happened to her?" Lisa was in deep thought.
"I don't know, but we can ask her later." Caleb answered.
Lisa and Caleb were able to get know each other. They learned each other's personality in a small span of time. They were constantly fighting during their first 2 weeks. However, as days passes by, they learned to lean on each other's shoulder for Aisha's sake. They were talking to each other when they heard a woman screaming and a loud bang. They rushed to open the door and they saw Aisha grabbing Angel's arm as she pin her on the floor. That must have been the loud thud that they heard. They were surprise.
"I tried to talk to you nicely but it seems that your I.Q is super low that you cannot even understand a simple explanation. Don't blame me for doing it in a hard way!" She slapped her cheek so hard.
"Stop it!" Angel pleaded. Aisha pulled her to her feet by grabbing her hair. Angel was screaming in pain. Once again, she pinned her on the wall.
"Try to seduce my husband again, I'll make sure to wreck your face the next time I see you! You should know your place, Angel. I don't know how your parents reared you, but I hope you don't want someone to wreck your family as well, right?" Aisha was angry.
"Stacy, stop it!" Caleb grabbed her. She released Angel from her grip.
"What's mine is mine! Engrave that into your small brain, slut!" Aisha cursed. Lisa was caressing her back to stop her.
"You! You will definitely pay for what you did to me! Just so you wait!" Angel threatened her then she hurriedly left her office.
