Chapter 39 - Jealous Wife

Fuente Residence.

"Why did you do that without thinking?!" Mr. Fuente was enraged when he heard Gaile's story.

Gaile is sitting on the couch while crying.

"I'm sorry, dad. I was just too desperate to get rid of that woman!" she replied in between her sobs.

"There!" Mr. Fuente pointed to his daughter, "That's the problem!"

"You let your emotion engulfed you and do stupid things without thinking of the consequences!" he yelled.

"I'm sorry, dad." Gaile apologized again.

"Sorry?!"

"Your sorry won't fix everything! You have ruined Tim's trust!"

"Do you know why I want you to get Tim?"

"Because he is rich and influential! It will be an advantage to us if our families will become one, we can benefit from it, but you missed your chance!"

"How can you be such a failure, huh?!"

"You're just like your mother!"

Gaile looked up to her father.

She felt pained hearing again those words from her father!

Yes!

Her father has always been cruel to her since she was a child.

She never felt his love as a father.

She is aware that her father doesn't love her mother, and he always compares her to her mother whenever she made mistakes.

He is never proud of her, in all her achievements, for him, she is always a failure!

She was happy when he went to L Country and tell her about Tim, she thought, her father had already changed!

But now she realized something!

"Dad, are you just being nice to me lately because you thought I can marry Tim?" Gaile asked resentfully.

"What else are you thinking?!" Mr. Fuente asked back sarcastically.

Gaile couldn't hold her tears.

It was the bitter truth!

Her father was just treating her nicely because of Tim!

This is also one of the reasons why she was too desperate to get Tim because Tim is one of the ways to get her father's love for her!

The love of a father that she did not feel since she was a little child.

"You go back to L Country, you have no use here." Mr. Fuente doesn't mind his words.

Gaile silently cry, for her father, she's just like a thing, she will take her if she's useful and get rid of her if she's not useful anymore!

The next day, Lea decided to pay a visit to Kira, she and Kira haven't talked for a while, she was busy with her convenience store renovation, but after she heard the story about what happened between her friend and Tim's auntie, she did not hesitate to come and pay her a visit!

The taxi stopped in front of the gate of the Villa.

Lea gets down of the taxi.

She stands in front of the gate, she stretched her neck and tried to peek inside the gate.

She couldn't see the inside and she hasn't seen anyone who could open the gate for her.

Lea continued to peek inside but then...

"Beeeppp!!"

"Ah!" Lea was startled and she screamed as she heard the loud horn blowing behind her!

'Aish!' Lea almost curse as she turned her head to the car.

The driver's seat opened and a man in black gets down.

He is tall, he is good looking, broad shoulders and well, he looked stern!

Lea knitted her brows, the man looked familiar to her but she couldn't remember where and when she saw him.

The man slowly approaches Lea.

Coby stopped the car when he saw a woman standing outside the gate, and he can't help but feel suspicious.

Coby gets down the car and approached the woman.

"May I help you, Miss?" Coby asked with his serious expression.

Lea did not reply, she just knitted her brows as she stared at the man in front of her.

Coby notices the weird expression of the woman in front of him.

"I saw you peeking inside the villa," He said and then he stretched his hand to the woman.

" May I see your identification card, please?" He asked.

Lea looked at the man's reddish palm, "Identification card?" She repeated.

"Yes, Miss," Coby replied.

"Why do you need my identification card?" Lea asked doubtfully.

"I need to make sure that you're not a criminal, Miss," Coby replied without holding back.

"What?!" Lea blurted out in a loud voice!

"C-Criminal?!" She repeated with her unbelievable expression!

'What?!'

'Me?!'

'A criminal?!'

Lea got offended with this arrogant man!

"Ha!" Lea let out a sarcastic laugh as she throws a side glance to the man.

"Excuse me, Mister! I am a friend of the house's owner, and I am not a criminal!" She proudly said.

"I'm sorry, but I have to make it sure, Miss," Coby insisted.

"Why?" Lea looked at the man from head to toe as if she is sizing him up.

"Who are you?!" She questioned the man.

"I don't introduce my self to anyone, Miss," Coby replied plainly.

Lea was speechless with this man's behavior!

He wants to see my identification card but he doesn't want to introduce himself?!

Lea is starting to feel annoyed by this man's arrogance!

" Alright!" She said as she crossed her arms on her chest, " I won't show you my identification card, then!" She added.

Coby frowned, this woman is being difficult!

But he has a way of handling this kind of situation!

Coby shoves his hand in his pocket and took his phone.

He swiped his phone a few times before he put it on his ear.

Lea observed the man in front of her.

"What are you doing?!" She asked when she saw him calling someone.

"Calling for the securities," Coby replied plainly.

"S-Securities?!" Lea's eyes went wide opened!

"Send two security guards at the gate, someone is spying on us," Coby said as if he is talking to someone on the phone.

Coby ended the call after saying his word.

"H-Hey!"

"Why did you call the securities?!"

"I am not spying on you!" Lea said in a loud voice.

" I have already said that I am Kira's friend and I am here to visit her!" She explained.

Coby froze when he heard the woman.
