I don't know if I'm still in my right sense and I don't know either what I did was wrong.
"Wake up, Lucy, he's married and you're single" I mumbled after I finally put it from his secret room.
Is loving Kent, a sin?
Eloisa PoV
It's almost evening but Kent hasn't home yet. This is the first time he came home late in our ten years of marriage. I shook my head and think of our happy moments together. Maybe he had much paperwork to do since he's the one handling our firm. While thinking about my husband, the telephone rings. I took it and put it on my ears.
" Hello, may I help you?" I asked the person who called me on the other line.
"Madam, I hope you still remember me?" it's the same voice I last spoke before I and Kent went abroad.
"Rey? Why you suddenly calling me now? I thought our transaction ends there! Don't call me again! Bye!" I said while keeping lips calm.
His chuckles ring in my ears.
"Are you crazy Madam Eloisa? You paid us half so I called you to get the other half!" he said.
My mind is in chaos now. How did he find me and knew my telephone number? This person is a pain in my head. I had no choice but to transfer the half amount of money to his bank account or else my secret comes out and if that happens, Kent will be disgusted with me and leave me. That is if Rey will talk to him but everything is under my control. No one will know what I did ten years ago.
After we are done, I cut off our conversation and rest my back on my bed. I'm about to call my husband when the door creaked open and he suddenly appeared.
"I'm sorry I'm late, honey. Many paperwork!" he mumbled after kissing my forehead.
I accepted his excuse and smiled at him.
"It's okay, honey. I know it's hard to be a CEO without me at your side but I trust you and your ability so I am sure you can do it. So, how's the new secretary of yours?" I asked him while helping me out from our bed and put me in my wheelchair.
"She's better. Anyway, let's go and eat!" he said and he helped me.
Fuck!
Why she's acting so clingy. I hate when shes like that. I didn't want to be attached to her because I may hurt her again or maybe I will only lie to my feelings! I decided to call her.
"Just quick okay. I'll just wait for my wife to fall asleep and I will meet you there!" I instructed her and she shouted in joy.
It's different now. Lucy, my first love is just my mistress and nothing else. Eloisa is my legal wife and for ten years I learned to love and understand her. Maybe I just miss her that's why I crave her presence. I went back to our room and found my wife asleep. I didn't attempt to disturb her. I took my car keys on the lamp table and took a quick shower before I go to Lucy's house. I sprayed her favorite perfume when we were still lovers. I keep it since Eloisa hated that scents and brought me another brand of perfume.
Finally, I just arrived. I looked around me to check if someone saw me. I was wearing a baseball cap to hide my identity.
I was surprised when she jumped towards me clamping her legs on my body like a child while her hands encircled on my neck. I cupped her butt and brought her on the couch.
"Do you miss me, babe?" I murmured in her ears.
