My Wife is an Aloof Beauty

"From now on, behave yourself," Luke said brusquely while looking at her one last time. Turning around, he walked into the company premises with Edward without looking back. Luke sincerely hoped he would never have to see or meet Erin ever again. He knew the kind of girl she was and didn't like her one bit.

The moment they stepped into the elevator, Edward turned around to look at Luke, with a knowing smirk on his face. He looked intrigued as he stared at his companion as if there was something interesting on his face. Out of the blue, Luke felt uncomfortable, once he sensed the intensity of Edward's gaze.

"Why are you looking at me that way?" Luke asked while touching his face self-consciously. Was there something on his face? Why was Edward looking at him in such a strange way? It was unnerving!

The fact of the matter was, it was Hilda that benefited the most from this mess. She was once the least popular girl in school because of her figure. But since she was friends with Michelle, people had started talking to her, even sucking up to her, to try and get in touch with Michelle with her as a conduit. Everyone was aware that Michelle had a powerful husband who worked in the famous FX International Group, who was protective of her. They all wanted a piece of Michelle. And approaching Hilda first was a good idea.

It seemed as though Michelle's life had become peaceful once more. But she still felt something missing at the back of her mind, and this would sometimes dampen her spirit.
