My Only Love: The Targeted Heiress

Vincent and Cathy's wedding procession went quite fast. After enjoying dinner, the two chat with the team members at their house, aka Vincent's elite team's main headquarters. They drank together, and every now and then, Pasha and Barneys would tease the newlyweds with a playful tone. Vincent was used to their behavior, but not with Cathy.

"I can't believe it was your first kiss." Pasha teased, making Cathy's face flushed like a tomato.

At first, Vincent enjoyed Cathy's shy expression in response to his friends' jokes. But over time, his sense of wanting to protect Cathy got bigger and made him want to get back at the main perpetrator who made Cathy blush.

"Soph, I think I saw Nancy. Could you possibly invite her?" Vincent asked Sophia in a serious tone. A second later, he couldn't help but laugh as Sophia glanced at the Pasha maliciously.

Seeing Vincent and others were laughing, making Cathy more confused. The strangest part was only Pasha and Sophia were not laughing. Pasha sat awkwardly staring at Vincent in annoyance while Sophia stared at Pasha with... fury?

"Ooo, so you invited Nancy too, huh? It looks like you still can't get over it, then why did you marry me?"

"Honey, you misunderstood. I invited Paul... well, who has ever thought that Nance dated him now." 

"NANCE?! You still call her with that endearing name?"

"What? No, it's not like that."

"Pst .. let's go," without caring the couple's bickering, Vincent whispered into Cathy's ear as he pulled her hand out of the room.

While holding hands, they climbed the stairs leading to Vincent's main room... which now belonged to both of them.

"Is it okay we leave them like that?" Cathy was more worried about the couple's quarrel. 

"They'll be fine. Believe it or not, they'll be back making out and giving others their dog food."

They arrived at their room, and Cathy was surprised by what she saw for the nth time. This morning when she woke up in this room, the room's atmosphere seemed masculine. One look, people will know the occupant of the room is an adult man.

But now, the room has been entirely reconstructed. There used to be an empty space next to the wardrobe, and now there's a dressing table. The mattress sheets that previously showed a male bed's impression are now replaced with more feminine motifs.

Not only that, there were flower petals scattered on the mattress, forming a big heart. There was also a flower on the head of the headrest between two neatly arranged pillows.

Cathy looked around the room and wondered, is this the same room when she woke up this morning?

Unfortunately, she had not had time to find the answer when the two large arms snaked around her body from behind, and a distinctive lemon scent filled her nose.

"Finally, no one can bother us," whispered Vincent. His breath blowing against Cathy's ears made her heart beat fast.

Cathy's face had blushed at the whisper and colored even more when she looked at the bed. She had forgotten one common fact.

Wedding night.

Is she... Is she going to do 'that' with Vincent tonight?

What a stupid question she had... because for sure they will because this is their first night as husband and wife. Still... Cathy felt her heart was not ready and felt this was all happening so fast.

Vincent felt Cathy's tension and chuckled without loosening his arms.

"Don't worry. I won't eat you tonight."

"You won't?" Cathy shut her mouth tight when she realized there was a tone of disappointment in her voice.

"Well, I will if you weaken my resistance."

Understanding the meaning of her husband's sentence, Cathy shook her head quickly.

"I won't do it," her soft response, making Vincent smile with amusement.

"I have a present for you." Vincent released his hug and walked over to a table.

After taking a box, Vincent came back to Cathy and handed the box to his beloved wife.

Cathy blinked several times, confused as to why her husband gave her a new phone.

"I threw away your phone, remember? Here is for you."

Cathy's mouth formed an A sign of understanding. Cathy accepted it with pleasure and immediately opened it.

Her new phone was much more advanced than her old one. Vincent still hugged her and waited patiently when Cathy checked her new smartphone application. 

Suddenly an idea crossed Cathy's mind. She remembered something and was curious.

"Where is your phone?"

Vincent looked at his wife, not understanding why the girl asked for his phone, although he still gave it to her without question. What belongs to him was hers too now, so he didn't mind Cathy checking out his phone.

He had nothing to keep hidden from the girl, after all.

"Has your number been saved in my phone?"

"Of course." for the first time, Vincent couldn't immediately guess what his wife was thinking. Has his ability to read Cathy's mind dulled after being separated for a year?

The sound of a ringing tone coming from Vincent's phone made him wonder who called him? Vincent has many phone numbers to prevent enemies from tracking and hacking his cellphone. But this number was private and aimed at Cathy only. He deliberately bought a new personal number specifically for Cathy.

Vincent was stunned, and now that he began to understand his wife's clever plan, he immediately moves to take his phone back. Unfortunately, Vincent reacted a little too late. His wife had seen what she wanted to see.

The truth is, Cathy has been curious for a long time and wants to see if it is true that Vincent saved her name as 'My7', as Felicia said. She wanted to test it by calling the man's number with her new smartphone.

Her eyes widened because the name that appeared was not what she had imagined. Cathy was still glued to her place, utterly unaware that Vincent has taken his phone back.

"Did you see it?" Vincent asked nervously when Cathy turned around because she wanted to see Vincent's expression at this time.
