"Yes I do have a special room for Alessandro. His room will be in the servant quarters along with the rest of our other servants" Cecilia said and Alessandro's eyes widened.
…..
Just like Cecilia had said, Alessandro began sleeping in the slaves quarters. Alessandro thought all he had to do was sleep there but Mia's family shocked him to the core when they told him to start cleaning and doing all other chores in the house. What could he do? He had to oblige. They even stopped him from attending his part-time gigs, so he was a full time house wife or in his case, house husband.
Alessandro took the mob along with a bucket of water and he started mobbing the grand hallways. He continued mobbing and his waist ached insanely.
He suddenly saw a well polished shoe on top his mob, he narrowed his eyes. He looked up and he saw Mia's brother, Alessandor Lorenzo standing in front of him, he was dressed in an expensive suit.
"You really handpicked the wrong family to mess with, you gold digger. You thought by convincing Mia to marry you, you'll have access to her wealth?" Alessandor chuckled. "You thought wrong, you'll remain a lowly servant for the rest of your days. The thing that actually irks me most about you is that our name sounds almost alike, it irks me" Alessandor said and he walked away leaving Alessandro there, he held the mob tightly and he continued mobbing.
He finished with the hallway and he headed for the servant quarters to at least get some rest.
"Honey bun" Mia called and she ran to him, she held his arm. Alessandro mustered a smile although he ached all over. "Mother wants you to accompany us to go shopping" Mia said and Alessandro had no other choice but to agree.
What Cecilia meant by Alessandro 'accompanying' them was very different from what Alessandro had in mind but he cursed himself for being surprised.
Cecila made him carry all the bags containing the items they bought. Alessandro's hands began throbbing and he fell one of the bags mistakenly.
"How could you be so clumsy? The items in there are far more expensive and valuable than your destiny!" Cecilia flared. Alessandro became extremely embarrassed
"Mom it's okay" Mia said in an attempt to calm her but Cecilia kept glaring at Alessandro venomously.
Life continued that way for Alessandro and he was willing to take everything because of the love he had for Mia.
Alessandro prepared dinner for Mia and he waited for her to come back home, she went for her usual shoppings. Alessandro received a phone call from his friend, Federico Massimo.
He picked at the first ring, "Yo! Latest house husband" Federico laughed.
"It isn't funny, stop that" Alessandro said.
"Alright lover boy, where's your dear wife?" Federico asked.
"She went for shopping, she will be back soon, why are you asking though?" Alessandro asked.
"Well I just saw your beloved wife entering a hotel with another man," Federico said.
"What!?" Alessandro exclaimed in shock. Federico sent him the location of the hotel and Alessandro quickly left the house.
He took a cab and he got to the hotel where he met Federico in front of it.
"Please tell me this is a prank" Alessandro said with reddened eyes.
"I wish it was Alessandro, I warned you but you never listen , come see for yourself" Federico said.
He led Alessandro inside the hotel, getting access to the room Mia was in was easy because Federico worked in the hotel. He was supposed to serve drink and snacks to Mia and her lover.
Alessandro and Federico stood in front of the room Mia was.
"It's time to see the truth and face reality" Federico said, he knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" A man's rough voice was heard and tears started falling from Alessandro's eyes.
"Room service" Federico said and he nodded to Alessandro. Alessandro mustered courage and he opened the door.
His heart broke into a thousand pieces because of what he was seeing. Mia was straddling the man and his hands were under her short gown.
"Alessandro" she quickly got up when she saw him.
"Alessandro" she muttered. Alessandro shook his head in denial and he left their room, he ran out of the hotel and he took a cab to the mansion.
Alessandro's eyes were red with tears. "What happened?" Cecila asked as she walked over to him, Alonzo accompanied her.
"Mia..Mia cheated on me with another man, I saw them at the hotel" Alessandro said painfully.
"Well it was about damn time you found out" Cecila said. "Face it, you aren't up to Mia's standard, there's no way your marriage would have lasted" Cecilia said.
"What!?" Alessandro asked confusingly.
"Listen boy, we're not saying we'll kick you out of this house after your divorce with Mia, you can always apply as a servant, that way you can stay here for as long as you want" Alonzo said.
"Wait, what divorce?" Alessandro asked confusingly. "You want Mia and I to divorce?" Alessandro asked.
"Can't you see the obvious truth? You're too broke to be Mia's husband! We only allowed the marriage because Mia was still fantasizing about a future with you but now that she's back to her senses, you need to get lost. You've never been Mia's husband everything was all child's play" Cecilia said.
"Is it finally time for the divorce?" Alessandor who had just arrived at the house said. "It's about time, it's so humiliating living under the same roof as this low life. I rather die than accept this idiot as my brother-in-law" Alessandor said.
Alessandro had a hard time keeping up with everything they were saying, it felt like his whole mind and body was shutting down.
"Does..does Mia agree to this divorce?" Alessandro asked.
"I'm fully in support of it. I've signed the document already, just sign it too and get lost" Mia said, she was dressed to kill and to top it all the man who accompanied her to the hotel was with her, he wrapped his hands around her body possessively.
