His Deceptress Wife

CHAPTER TWENTY



Everyone left except Dane. If I’m talking to someone that’s not crazy, it’s her, those idiots sympathize or help me but it’s different when talking to Dane. Everyone has a suggestion but still, nothing happened in our conversation.

“There is one thing you can do to get her back.” I look at Dane leaning back in the chair.

“What?”

“Court her. If you want to stay in your marriage, court her.”

“What?”

“Court her,”

Damn how to woo? Jessa’s the one, who court me, so how can I court Hailey?

“You know what, Phoenix; we girls are easy to deal with. We’re easy to get along with, especially if we love the guy. That’s why many women get pregnant because there are men who are good at being silly. Even if they know they’re being fooled. But, be careful when the woman realizes it, it takes time, months, years, or forever before they can forgive.”

“Are we still talking about women here or are you?”

“How did I get into the conversation?”

“No, never mind, but I have a problem.”

“What?”

“I don’t know how to woo.”

“Seriously, how did you court, Jessa?”

“Introduced, stared, kissed, licked breasts, we’re done.”

“Pervert,”

“That’s the truth, Dane.”

“Whatever.”

We were both laughing when my secretary suddenly entered.

“Sir, someone wants to talk to you.”

“It’s past 5 PM, I want to go home.”

“I said that —” The secretary didn’t finish what she was going to say when a man entered.

“Go, Farrah. We can handle.”

“All right.” When Farrah is outside, Enrique suddenly rushed in and punched me.

“What the hell, Enrique!” said Dane protecting me from him.

“That’s for my friend.” I spit blood. I feel my lips numb and blood flow. “Don Alejandro is right! You didn’t do any good to Hailey; you’ll just hurt her and make her cry.”

“What did you say?” I straighten my back and was about to approach him but Dane grabbed me.

“Are you deaf? I don’t want to say it again, if I only knew you would just make my friend cry, I would have opposed your marriage.”

“What you mean is you like my wife.”

“You’re wrong, just say, I should be the one that Hailey’s husband and not you if I had not rejected Don Alejandro’s offer.”

“What are you talking about Enrique?” Dane asks him because I’m trying to sink into my mind what he just said.

“Don Alejandro, offer me first to marry Hailey, but I refused because I know Hailey won’t be happy. He told me that he has no one else to trust Hailey because Hailey is aloof when it comes to men and doesn’t want to socialize. I told Don to find another, but when they don’t find anyone, I will represent myself. Coincidentally, you need money, Phoenix, so Don offered you the marriage to Hailey,” he explained.

“You said, Don Alejandro doesn’t want Phoenix, but why did he offer him to marry Hailey?”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Because that’s what Hailey wants.”

“What?” I ask.

“Idiot, when you asked money, of course, Don asked Hailey’s permission first since, it’s her money. So, Hailey grabbed the opportunity to be with you. Well, she was just trying to tease you. If you refused then, they still give you the money. Your choice wasn’t important. Hailey wants to try her luck to get you. But you agreed.”

“So, Hailey likes Phoenix?”

“She loves that asshole.” Dane looked at me but we looked at Enrique again. “Since we’re children, Hailey loved that idiot. Everything Hailey does, it’s all about Phoenix.”

“She loves me?”

“Obviously, but you didn’t see it, because you’re stupid.”

“Enrique,” Dane scolded him.

“The night before the wedding, Don talked to me and said that I will take care of Hailey and don’t just trust you. You hate her so it’s likely you’ll hurt her. And now, it happened, you made my friend cry. If I knew she’s going to the wrong person. I just I’ve agreed to Don’s offer. She’s already my wife before you need money.”

“Enrique, Phoenix was wrong, but believe me, he loves Hailey. There is just a misunderstanding in everything. Mostly, his feelings towards Hailey, But, believe me, Phoenix, loves Hailey. He never meant to hurt her.”

“I believe you Diana, but I can’t trust him again.” Then he looked at me. “I’ll give you a chance to fix this. But when Hailey insists she doesn’t want to. I’ll take her away from you and you’ll never see her again. Fix this, tame her, and reconcile with her.” Then he turned around and left us.

“Damn.” I kicked the table when Enrique came out after I realized everything he said. “Damn!” I scream.

“Hey, relax.”

“I’m stupid, Dane.”

“That’s why you need to fix it.” I sat up while holding my head. “It’s not too late.”

“What if I’m too late? What if she really doesn’t want me anymore? Enrique will take her away from me, and knowing that asshole. He also has money; wherever he takes Hailey he can do it. Even we’re married he can hide Hailey from me.”

“Stop assuming, don’t think negatively, go home and talk to her. Do everything that you think is right.” I couldn’t act on what Dane said, because I was confused as to what I’m going to do, or what I should do first. Where do I start? And how to start to woo her and get her heart?

“FUCKER, MOVE!” she shouted accompanied by applause to wake me from deep thought.

“I’ll go home.”

No, I will not allow myself to lose my wife. I don’t know how to reconcile with her, but I will not allow us to separate. She is my wife. She is mine, and that stupid Enrique can’t take her away.

When I got home I saw another car parked outside.

“Where’s Hailey?” I asked the maid that greeted me.

“In the veranda Sir Phoenix with Sir Enrique.” What a piece of shit, after he beat me, he’d still have the courage to step into my house? Should I put a bullet in his head?

I go to them immediately. I was going to call when I heard them talking.

“I wish that you’re the one that my heart chooses to love, I wish you’re the one that I marry, so that, I’m not hurting like this.” Hailey sobs as her head rest on Enrique’s shoulder.

“Don’t say that princess, I believe when Diana said your husband loves you. Reconcile with him. You love him, don’t you? So, accept him back again in your heart.”

“It stings you know, its hurts when the person you love so much damage you.” I clenched my fist hearing her crying. It’s really my fault. But I regretted it, and I really want us to be ok.

“Everyone is hurting princess. I really want to strangle that idiot, but you will hurt more if I do that, and I see the sincerity in him when he said he wants to reconcile with you and that he admits his mistake.”

“He didn’t really love me. He’s just guilty because I talked back and make him realize his mistakes.”

I’m guilty? me? Maybe yes, maybe no, whatever it is, one thing is for sure. I will not allow her to disappear, because I just realized I was wrong. If that was called guilty then yes, I am guilty of the way I talk harshly to her, but still, I will not allow us to separate.

“He just stepped on his ego, because he was slapped to the reality that he was wrong to all of the accusations he made against me.” And she’s fucking right again. But ego is not the issue here. But my realization, that I was stupid because I hurt her.

“And when he realizes that he’s just guilty and had only pride. He will grant us to separate. He will sign the annulment.” She is a decision-maker. I even wore our wedding ring because I saw it on the table in her room. And I won’t take it off no matter what happens. Whether she liked it or not, we’re together forever.

“Prince,” she called to Enrique.

“Hmm?”

“If Phoenix and I get annulled, are you willing to marry me and take care of me?” I frowned at her question to Enrique. Is she really going to leave me? Don’t you dare to say yes Enrique; I will put a bullet in your head when you got out of my house.

“Princess, even if we don’t get married, I will still take care of you. Not only because of my promise to Don but because of my promise to you before. I know you only love your stupid husband, so it’s ok for me to be friends until we get old. ”

But I was surprised because I didn’t expect what Hailey did. He kissed Enrique on the lips.

“Princess?”

“The heart can be taught and it’s not hard to love you. Just wait for me when Phoenix and I are separated, prince, and I will teach my heart to love you.”

Damn!

I turned around and no longer listened to them. Damn it! I was lost, I want to go back and hit that guy, but what right do I have? It’s my fault because I broke my wife’s love for me. It’s my fault for doing so.

But it doesn’t mean that I will give up. That I will allow us to annul. Suck on you, Enrique! Because I will not let my wife go, if I had to hire hundreds of security so you couldn’t get close to her, I would.

You can’t have her. My wife belongs to me. She’s mine and we will make ten children. Even if you kiss there all night, I won’t let go of her. I’ll allow you to kiss her for now, but next time you didn’t stop her. You will borrow a face from a foal!
