Eve blinked her eyes and looked at his handsome face. His eyes darkened when he heard the name of her father. She had thought that he would let her go immediately but he kept holding her waist.
Her shirt was only hanging on her shoulders. It was a complete mess.
"Cedric."
"Ask him to wait in the meeting room." Cedric only replied when both Mark and her thought he would refuse. He let her go immediately after that. His face went cold and dark, full of indifference as if he was not going to enter her just a moment ago.
Eve collected her clothes and wiped her eyes. His touch, his smell, and his warmth were still lingering on her skin. She felt like she had been slapped hard. How could they make out in the office when he had been with Elene?
If it had been any other woman... Hell! Even then she would not have accepted it. She could not share her man. Her chest burnt at the thought but she held it in.
"Eve, we are not done. We need to…"
"Bam.." she went to the attached washroom and closed the door at once. If he was going to talk to her about how Elene had refused him to divorce her so she wanted to keep both of them, then he was a crazy bastard.
She leaned on the door as she closed it. Her eyes were still misty. When she looked in the mirror, her whole neck and breasts were covered with marks. Cedric loved to bite her, but this was extreme.
"Do not tell me he has a kink of sleeping with two women in a day." but he had always been so... She shook her head and cleaned her face. She applied the makeup again and combed her hair. When she came out, there was no sign of Cedric but she had already expected it.

In the meeting room,
David sat in the meeting room with a frown on his face. Cedric hardly made him wait. And today it had been an hour since he was waiting. Last night, Elene had followed him and she did not return home.
He was so joyous that he went straight to the company and created new contract papers. He was sure that he could press Cedric with the guilt card. The man was sleeping with his both daughters, he should pay twice then.
David did not care which daughter would he choose, though Elene was better since she understood him and supported him. Eve had strange morals that only apply when it comes to their family.
That foolish woman had donated ten thousand dollars. If she had given the amount to him... He gritted his teeth. But it did not matter, Cedric had been generous to him since he had married Eve. so even if he continued to live with Eve, he would take good care of them.
"Mr Wenhart," it was Mark who opened the door. The man gritted his teeth.
"Where is my son-in-law? Others did not know but you are aware of my identity. Yet you asked me to wait here for two hours. Do you not value your job anymore?" he gritted his teeth and glared at the assistant. How could they be rude to him?
"Mr. Wenhart, there is an emergency in the Germany branch office. The factory caught fire last night. The boss is busy handling the matter. He had asked me to inform you that he would meet you after office at your regular place." David paused. An office caught fire! He nodded his head with all seriousness and left without another complaint.
He could still convince Cedric to invest in his new business plan in the club. And he would have a good time there too.
Mark took a long sigh when David left. He scratched his head. What was happening with his boss? First, the sound of moaning was coming from his room brazenly and now he had asked Mark to lie to his relatives and his wife, madam was giving him more glares than usual.
"I should demand a bonus for days like this." he shook his head and went to the thirty-one floor of the building that was attached to the apartment of the boss.
Cedric was standing in front of the window. He had a cigarette in his hands. His eyes were cold and dark.
"Boss, I have already investigated the matter. The man in the party named Jack is a new model launched by Mr Wenhart's company. He was invited by their family only. Two maids had seen madam drinking but no one is sure if he was invited by madam in her room.
There is no footage that covers him entering the room. But I am sure madam entered alone in the room. Either he followed her or he was there before she went is not clear.
But she was tipsy when she was climbing the stairs. And… I did not find her contacting any lawyer. Her family might have helped in preparing divorce papers. But she had not talked to anyone else but her sister at the party." Cedric's face went darker and darker as he heard the report.
He knew Eve was not a woman who would bring a man to her room. In their marriage, she had always been loyal and he was sure he satiated her enough to think about another man.
"Have you asked someone to follow her?" Mark's face went gloomy at once but he nodded.
"Yes, two men will follow madam from now on wherever she goes. They will PROTECT her as you have instructed." though he knew it had nothing to do with protection.
No one knew that Eve was his wife. Who would harm a mere employee. He was jealous after the event last night and wanted to spy on his wife but he could not accept it.
No, he could never accept anything. Everything would have gone better if only he had accepted his love for his wife. If he could see it, then why could he not see how much he cared for Eve?!!
