Cecilia picked up her sandal and swung it at Jack’s face with full force.

Jack easily moved back and dodged cleanly.

He grabbed her hand and spun her under his arm and pulled her closer to himself. “Don’t think I’ll keep being gentle when you don’t even reciprocate my love a little.”

“Your love?” Cecilia spat at him. “You’re just a psychotic bastard.”

Jack grabbed Cecilia’s hair and wiped her spit off his face.

“Let go of me,” she wrestled, trying to free herself, but he was too strong for her.

    The next day.Cecilia came to the Serenity company. There were many people coming to meet her these days.From the real estate experts who would try their best to sell new plots for company expansion to the rich businessmen seeking to slice and swallow a share of the company’s profits.Most of them did not come with good intentions, but the words their tongues uttered were very sweet.Cecilia did not choose from those who tried to praise and flatter her. Instead, she made contracts with those who were professional and reserved with their tongue.That morning, Emma did not come to her room.So, Cecilia went looking for her.She didn’t find her anywhere in the building. She asked some employees, and Max told her that Emma went to one of the new construction sites.“Why did she go there without telling me?” Cecilia wondered.Just then, Emma entered the hall.“Where are y0u coming from?” Cecilia asked straight away.“I went to check on the construction work of our company’s new sites,” Em

    People complimented Cecilia all the time, but that was mostly from the ones she already knew.So, she noticed a trend recently.Handsome men were approaching her, and most of them had the intention of dating her or tempting her, despite knowing she was married.This had never happened before.There were isolated cases like Jack Shamus, but nothing like the recent times.She wasn’t angry at those who approached her but at the one who was sending these men to her.“Who’s behind you?” Cecilia asked in a cold anger. Her gaze alone told the handsome man that he needed to be careful while answering.“There’s no one behind me, miss,” he smiled politely. “You seem to be mistaken about something. Your mood isn’t good right now, so I’ll meet you later.”He turned around and was leaving, but she held his hand and stopped him.To his surprise, her strength was great. He was not able to free himself with just a yank.“Give me the name,” Cecilia growled in a low voice, “and I’ll let you go.”Her gr

    The next day.Cecilia was at a charity luncheon when a handsome man in an expensive suit approached her."Ms. Cecilia?" a deep voice reached her ears.She turned slowly.The muscular man flashed a dazzling smile. "I just wanted to say that you're even more beautiful in person."Cecilia politely thanked him and continued walking.“One second, Miss,” he walked with her. “I have a cool business idea that can bring your company more profits. If you can give me an hour, I will not disappoint you.”She stopped and glanced at him. “What are your qualifications?”“I’m an entrepreneur,” he gave her his visiting card. “I boost the value of the companies. Last year, I raised the value of a tech company from 40 to 400 million.”Cecilia was impressed by the data he showed. “Okay. You can contact my assistant Emma.”“Thank you, ma’am.”Cecilia was soon approached by another attractive man who introduced himself as a famous author.She was quick to recognize him. “Mr. James. It’s so good to see you.

    One evening, Cecilia stepped out of the boutique carrying two shopping bags and immediately noticed some people asking for selfies.This was quite surprising for her because this hasn’t happened before in the streets but only when she attended colleges or schools as a guest to give speeches.One of those people was a tall handsome man with the sort of face magazines paid fortunes to photograph.He put his hand around my shoulder as he took a selfie.Cecilia didn't think much of it. She thought he was being friendly.She continued walking to her car."Excuse me." The voice came from behind.She turned.The handsome stranger jogged over awkwardly."I know this is random, but..." He laughed sheepishly. "Has anyone ever told you that you look incredible?"Cecilia blinked twice.This was a bit unexpected. Still, she smiled and replied with a polite thank you, then showed him her wedding ring.He smiled back as if it didn’t matter. “Isn’t it boring to sleep with the same man every night?”C

    A week passed.The count of public bathrooms exploded all over the country, which caught people’s eyes.These bathrooms all had Serenity company’s logo on it, with Cecilia’s grandma’s picture at the front.These bathrooms had advanced features without compromising on simplicity.These became instantly popular.Online forums and apps talked about these.“Did you visit one of those Serenity bathrooms?”“NO. Why?”“They are better than what you see in five-star hotels. And they’re free to use. You gotta experience that luxury at least once.”“Luxury? Isn’t it just sitting and shitting? What difference will there be?”“You don’t need toilet paper. It’s washing us off automatically.”“What? How?”“Precise water jet formula.”“Is that even possible? Are they putting cameras or something?”“No, they’re using advanced sensors it seems.”Thanks to word of mouth, the sales of Serenity boosted so much that thousands of units were ordered every hour from around the world.Many big companies wante

    Cecilia was working hard for Serenity company.She was also wondering why she didn’t get any calls or messages from Kevin. His mobile was also not reachable, so she wasn’t able to sleep peacefully.But then one fine morning, Cecilia received a message from Kevin’s email.She expected a love message, but he told her an idea of how to promote the company.While she liked the noble idea, she didn’t like that he didn’t use any loving words in the message.Her mood was down.Just then, Emma entered her office and said, “He sent a surprise for you.”“Who?” Cecilia wondered.A young lady brought lots of bouquets of variegated flowers and put them down on the table.She handed a letter to Cecilia.On the note, there were three words: Love you, Wifey.Cecilia’s face gained color. She pulled the bouquets closer and sniffed the flowers. They were so fresh, their fragrance filled the whole room.Emma smiled, but she was also jealous at the same time. “You’re quite lucky to have him. If it were me
