As the days passed by, Chelsea and Red didn't get along well. They are like dogs and cats in the same house. One morning, while Chelsea was having coffee peacefully because the demon who always ordered her to do some errands was not in the mansion and was busy in the office, she was surprised when the maid entered her room.
"Miss, someone is looking for you downstairs," the maid said.
Chelsea looked at her in surprise. "Did you ask who?"
"No, miss…" she answered.
"What does she look like then?" Chelsea asked.
The maid scratches her nape as she tries to remember what the woman looks like. She looks quite like you, Miss, but she has long red hair. We are almost the same height. She also makes me hurry to call you…" The maid answered while seeming to be in a hurry.
It was obvious from Chelsea's face that she knew who had visited the mansion.
"I see. I will be there. Please tell her to wait for me in the living room, and also tell her to not touch anything."
"Yes, miss," the maid said, and immediately left to take the guest to the living room.
Before leaving, Chelsea finished the coffee she was drinking. When she went down to the living room, she wasn't that surprised to see her sister sitting on the sofa. She looks like she owned the house based on how she sits on the sofa.
"Maxine? What are you doing here?" Chelsea crossed her arms as she approached her sister.
"Sister!" she shouted happily and immediately stood up to approach Chelsea to kiss her, but Chelsea suddenly avoided her.
Maxine straightened up as if she was ashamed of what she had done. "Aren't you happy to see me, sister? Aren't you going to invite me for a drink or a tour of the Buenavistas' mansion?"
CHELSEA
What is she doing here? It seems like she needs something from me. But I don't care about her whereabouts; I have to get her out of here. It would not be good if Madam Buenavista saw her.
"Is brother-in-law not here, sister? I will be holding a party at home in a few days. So I thought I'd invite my brother-in-law so mom and dad could meet him, especially my friends!" she said happily.
"Really? A party for what?" I asked.
"Well, I just want to have a party, and isn't it good timing? We could welcome him to the family!"
"Are you really going to invite my husband to the party, or maybe you're going to invite him to bed, hmm? Which one, Maxine?" I gave her a sarcastic smile as I stare at her.
Her eyes widened and she was stunned by what I said. "You! How could you say that?!" she furiously shouted.
Guilty!
"Before, you set up this kind of trap to deceive Mark. Now you will use your same trick to hook up with my husband?" I asked her angrily.
I really can't control this slut anymore. I wonder how we became blood-related when all that she wants is to get everything I have.
"Chelsea! Please don't say that… You know I didn't mean what happened to Mark, right? I— I swear I don't think of my brother-in-law that way," she claimed to defend herself.
Hah! What a fake little slut! Does she think she can manipulate me with those kinds of words? I am done!
"Please leave now, Maxine. I don't have time to talk to you and I'm busy right now..." I answered sluggishly.
I called the maid and signed her to approach us. "Could you please accompany her out of the mansion?" I said to make her escort my sister out of the mansion.
"Heh, are you afraid that I will steal your husband? I just came to send an invitation but you are accusing me of being a thief and a bitch who will steal him."
"I didn't think that you would steal my husband, all I could think of was that you would flirt with him. I never mentioned anything about stealing, but you said it yourself, so that is indeed your intention..." I smirk as I look at her. "If she refuses to leave, call the guards to throw her away!" I ordered the maid before I turned around to leave. I even saw the maid approach her and escorted her out of the mansion before I could finally climb the stairs.

It was already afternoon when Redemon got home. He was carrying a paper bag and handed it to me. What could this be? Giving me a gift is not in his dictionary unless there is an order in return.
"W-what is this?" I asked innocently when he handed me the paper bag.
"This evening, I'll be attending a charity event, and you'll be joining me."
I was stunned by what he said. Is he serious? Will he really take me? Shit! I'm not ready to show my face to other people and introduce myself as his wife…
"What's the matter? Why do you react like that? Have you forgotten about your obligations?" he asked.
The contract... It is stated in the contract and in our agreement that I have to fulfill my duties and responsibilities as his wife outside the company. What else can I do?
I left and went straight to my room. I took out the boxes inside the paper bags and I was shocked to see how beautiful they were. Is this what a noble lady wears? Will he really make me wear these? A blue off-shoulder mermaid gown was inside the paper bag. I put it on and I almost suffocated because it was so tight on me. Why do rich people tend to wear tight clothes? These kinds of clothes could almost kill a person.
I still have a hard time putting it on; it's stuck on my waist and it's hard to lift. Why is there no zipper? This is really stressing me out.
I was surprised when the door suddenly opened and Redemon entered.
"Are you wearing the gown or are you going to sew it?! Hurry u–up...." We looked at each other confused. He also stopped and looked at my body. Until now, I still haven't worn the gown, and I'm only wearing a bra.
There was total silence between us, but when I just realized the situation, I immediately screamed at the top of my lungs.
"GET OUT!" I screamed in shock, and I immediately covered my boobs.
Not to brag, but I really do have healthy breasts. Well, I got it from my mom.
-
"GET OUT!" Chelsea shouted, and Red immediately closed the door.
He was blushing and still standing behind the door. Red's heart was still pounding and his ears started to turn red.
"I'm lucky..." Red smiled and whispered to himself.
-
When the two arrived at the hotel, Chelsea immediately got out of the car. Red noticed it and immediately grabbed his wife's hand. He was planning to help her get out, but Chelsea had already done the honor for herself.
"If you don't want to be in the news tomorrow, don't make such an old face." He whispered to Chelsea while entering the venue.
"Well, if you learn to knock on the door before entering, then I won't make you worry," Chelsea answered angrily.
"Don't think so highly of yourself; that kind of body hurts my eyes," Red replied gruffly while simply observing Chelsea. Chelsea rolled her eyes as they continued walking.
CHELSEA
What did he just say?! What a jerk! My most curvaceous body is one of the things that I am proud to have. I inherited it from my mom! How dare he say such a thing?! This man should be thankful that I agreed to this agreement. The great Chelsea Leigh Garcia agreed to be his wife, what a lucky man!
We were already at the venue and were looking for a place to sit when suddenly someone almost bumped into me. The man was still carrying wine, and luckily I was able to avoid it.
"Oops, my bad. I'm sorry. I wasn't careful." he said and looked at me before leaving.
What was that? Weird…
We found a place to sit and there were too many people. I also see more coming. Maybe this event is really such an important event. We are like watching an opera.
"Thank you very much for coming to this charity event. We guarantee that all donations will go to the Association for Disabled Children. Now, the party officially begins."
The event has already started and with the number of things they are bidding on, I am already feeling sleepy. What time does it end? I want to go home and sleep in my bed. I miss my bed.
I covered my mouth and stifled a yawn. How much longer do I have to wait for this to end?
"1 million, any other bidders?" the MC shouted at the front.
What?! Are they serious? 1 million for a vase? That vase looks like an adult's chamber pot. The rich are really bad at having so much money that they just waste it on useless things even though they won't use it. But the money they raise will go to the disabled children, not bad, at least they helped.
"Congratulations to Mr. Lee for taking the Ancient Vase from China followed by...." shouted the mc.
I looked at the source of the voice and narrowed my eyes as I tried to remember him. Ahh wait isn't that the guy who almost ran into me earlier?
