Royal Ceo by Seerat Kaur (superbooks4u TXT) 📗

       A figure stopped next to me. I looked at her. She was my husband's partner. Her hair was a mess. She was continuously running her fingers in her messy hair. I could smell my husband over her. She yawned and covered her mouth with her second hand and muttered, "Sorry," With a slight smirk. 

        "Hi," I smiled as I glanced at her, "Need some help?" I asked. I should help her. Unknowingly, she helped me to get rid of my husband. 

        "Yea! Can I borrow your perfume?" She asked me with a smile. 

       "Of course!" I smiled. The elevator's door opened. I hurriedly pulled my luggage bag with me. 

       'You've used my husband. Geez! Wrong! He has used her entire night. It is just a perfume.' 

      She paced in right behind me. The door dinged close. I slipped my hand in my bag and took it out. 

      She glanced at it, "Nice choice." She took it from me with a smile.

      I smiled. It was a dry one, not my genuine one. I took out my phone and ran my fingers on my phone. I was exhausted and frustrated but she didn't need to know. 

      ' I have booked my flight. I have two million pounds. I can buy whatever I want. I don't need anyone. '

       "Thanks," She said, returning it to me. I took it silently and shoved it back into my bag. For now! I was going to throw it like my husband, "I'm Kristina." She extended her hand. 

       Unwantedly, I shook my hand. She must have touched him with her soft hands. I strongly felt the need to throw up. I hid my disgust behind my smile, "Welcome," I wiped my hand on my dress. 

       "You know, Edward Rhodes?' She asked with disgust on her face. 

       " Yeah! The CEO." I smiled, furrowing my brows. I cast my head low. So she couldn't see my anger. Which wasn't for her. 

       "Bastard!" My smile widened hearing it, "He called me here. I was expecting a beautiful sexy night with him. He's fu***** s**y! Muscular body, abs, curves! Oh my god! So tempting! " Her luring expression changed into disgust. The elevator door opened but she didn't stop speaking, "After kissing me like hell. He just stopped." I could tell from her angry face. She was not lying, "He didn't want to cheat on his wife. He was no fun." 

        I was about to walk away but I stopped dead. She glanced at me and held my arm and pulled me out of the elevator.  I swallowed the lump. I wanted to run back in the room and wanted to act his wife. 

                          Geez!

       Where did this come from? I shook my head.

      ' It doesn't matter to me. I'm using these pictures.'

      I was feeling a little bad. I suppressed that tiny part. It wasn't needed here. I didn't need to answer our families - 'Why did I do this?' indeed, it was just an excuse. His pictures with Kristina would answer them. 

       We walked out of the elevator. She spoke so fast that she spilled out a lot of information in less than a half minute. 

       "Have a good day, Kristina." I smiled drifting out of the hotel. 

       "Thanks. I didn't catch your name, dear?" She asked. Her smile was friendly. 

       First, I thought about lying to her. Then I changed my mind, "Sienna." I did not stop my pace as I darted toward the car. The driver opened the door for me, "Thanks," I muttered. 

      ' I have already booked a cab. I am flying away from New York. I didn't know. She has recognized me or not. But the silence explains a lot. '

       "His wife's name is also Sienna," I heard her muttering. 

       She didn't recognize me. Good! The guilt would have ruined her day. I stared at my phone. I clicked on the send button. I stared more. I had sent his and Kristina's pictures to his and my family. 

     ' I don't wanna do any damage to him. I'm sending them to our families, not in the media.'

        I didn't know why. But I wanted to go back after knowing the fact from Kristina. But it could be a lie too. I shouldn't be bothered about it. It wasn't my concern. We had different paths to walk. He didn't even look at me in my wedding dress. Though, the kiss was fantastic. 

       I bit my tongue and shook my head. My phone was already ringing in my hand. Edward! I pressed the red button and switched it off. 

       The airport wasn't far from the hotel. My mind kept swirling with his thoughts. I had questioned myself many times about my step, walking away from him and our wedding. Though, this was my prime thought. 

       The driver pulled over the car and stepped out. 

       I dragged myself out of my mind. We were heading to the Maldives for our honeymoon. But not anymore. 

       I puffed out a deep sight. My throat suddenly felt tightened. I put on glasses and straightened my back. I opened the door and stepped out of the car. 

       The driver took out my bag from the trunk. I grabbed it and walked in. 

       'I should not feel sad. I was supposed to go with him, not alone. It's nagging me. '
