Robert's POV

I was in my MO. Suddenly the alarm went off. Someone had entered Hailey's room. I hastily checked the cameras.

Max.

You're dead.

I headed back to my mansion and reached Hailey's room.

"You're an angel, Mrs. Hailey," he said to Hailey.

He was even holding her hands.

"Angel, huh?" I said.

Max was visibly shaking and then he got up and turned around. "You want to talk about this," I said. He nodded his head and then we started going out.

I turned around to face Hailey.

"And you!" I said. "Don't move" I added and left.

"So? Done seducing her?" I asked with a rough tone. He sighed.

"I beg you. Stop saying that. I-I... really Robert? You know me. I-I can't-"

"So what else should I infer? The husband got out; her boyfriend came inside. That's what the story is"

"No! No Robert, please..."

"I don't even know how many lines you would've crossed with her!"

"Robert, stop it now!!" he yelled.

"You stop it! Stop acting like that! You were in my wife's room in the middle of the night when you were sure I wouldn't be there and were holding hands, what do you expect from me to infer!!" I yelled finally. "R-Robert... At least... At least trust your wife..."

"She's gonna regret this anyway," I said slowly.

"No. No! L-listen. I-I will stay away from her, okay? This was not her fault... L-let her go..."

I chuckled. He should be punished for this. "You are gonna spend your nights in the basement from today, like everyone else. And you're gonna call me boss"

"O-Okay boss," he said. I smirked and left the room.

I'm coming, Hailey.

You crossed your limits.

You're cheap.

Like everyone else.

Hailey's POV

I was sitting on the bed.

He needs psychological help.

I can help him.

I have to help him.

According to my studies, I have to care about him and be with him no matter what happens.

I just don't have to leave him ever.

Make him believe in love again.

I don't know about his past, but I can tell that there's this pain in his heart... It is clear. He has gone through a lot.

And I'm gonna help him at all costs.

"Corazon" his voice came booming in my ears and I looked towards the figure.

The lights were out so he was just a shadow.

"Hm," I said.

"What were you doing with him?" he asked.

What kind of question is that?

"I- he was just.. you know talking about some stuff"

"Stuff? Like when you want to run away with him?"

"What?"

WHAT?

WHAT THE HELL IS-

OH, GOD. HE ISN'T THINKING THAT!

"What do you get from him that you can't get from me?" he moved forward.

Oh yeah. Like you are the dream husband?

"Y-you've got it all wrong. He's like my brother..."

"Oh sure. I believe you" he said.

But a psychiatrist can tell he's lying.

Then I felt the bed beside me sinking. He laid down beside me.

"You know what?" he said. "I lost the most important deal"

"M-Mr. Spencer?"

"mm-hm. Yeah! The one for which I married you" he sighed.

"H-how did you lose it?" I tried talking to him.

"You're coming to the office from tomorrow," he said. "As my PA again"

"Okay..." I said.

Tomorrow is gonna bring a new surprise for me again.

I hope I do my best. It's good for my psychiatric work. I can spend more time with him. It would help me in gaining his trust and eventually heal him.

I'm not gonna lose, Robert.

I'll never give in.

You try your best to hurt me,

But I would heal you.

The night was sleepless. I could feel his movement as early as 3 AM.

I got up as soon as he did.

"You're up?" he asked casually as it is the most common thing, he asks me.

I mean, I know he doesn't even care.

"R-Robert," I said. He turned on the lights and looked at me with an eyebrow up. "W-when do you have your breakfast?"

He chuckled. "Why?" he asked between his laugh.

"I-I want to make it for you..." I said.

He looked at me with confusion and then his face formed a smirk.

Okay, that smirk is what I'm afraid of most of the time.

"Yeah Corazon," he said. "You can make it. I have it at 4:30"

"Oh... Ok... I-I will make it every day" I said.

He nodded his head and then went to the bathroom to change his clothes. I went to the other one and got fresh.

We both came out at the almost same time, well I got out a little early and made my hair.

"W-what will you eat?" I asked.

"You wanna know?" he asked with the same smirk. Some sentences are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on Narugi.com. Visit Narugi.com to read the complete chapters for free. "Well, I'm gonna hand you a list," he said. I nodded absentmindedly and then he went to his closet, took out his laptop, and then printed a paper. He handed me the list.

He is kidding me.

This is not even a humorous joke.

"Ah? Your face has lost all its colors?"

"N-no. Nothing like that" I said.

"Make it," he said. I nodded and ran to the kitchen.

It's fucking 50 items. How am I gonna do this??
