ANGEL IN NEW DRESS
CHAPTER 2. HUMILIATIONED

In her car, Anneke's mind was not focused on driving at high speed as if she wanted to get to the airport soon. Forty minutes later he arrived at the airport and parked his car in the car care area then picked up a ticket and paid at the airport car care counter. Anneke dragged her suitcase towards the check-in counter.

Half an hour later Anneke was on a plane bound for S. The journey took about four hours. He decided to sleep, he deliberately bought the first class ticket as usual to be comfortable during the trip. After all, it was Noah's money that was transferred to his account every month as a living expense.

City S International Airport was the best, the weather was great as Anneke stepped out of the airport and into the taxi waiting at the front door. She stared out the window enjoying the view of the city that she often came to just to chase after her husband. Anneke smiled faintly thinking about her life for ten years.

‘Should I give up now? Ten years! Ten years I waited without success. He never even met me let alone called me. Why send a lot of money every month if I am not considered at all?’ Anneke let out a rough breath. His daydreams ran out when the taxi driver rebuked him.

“Nona, we have arrived.” said the taxi driver while staring from the rearview mirror. Then he came down to get the suitcase out of the trunk. A hotel staff member opened the door for Anneke, who got out of the car with a smile.

“Welcome Miss Anneke.” greet the hotel staff with a friendly smile.

Anneke threw her body into the soft bed and closed her eyes. I feel tired of his body and mind.

‘I'd better take a warm bath with aromatherapy so that my body is fresh. After that I'll look for Noah's whereabouts! I have to finish everything today as well before grandma knows everything.’

With lethargic steps she entered the bathroom and filled the bathtub with warm water and aromatherapy oils that were always available in the room every time she stayed at this hotel. The hotel staff already knew what Anneke needed because she always stayed at this hotel whenever she came to S country to spy on her husband.

An hour she soaked and refreshed her body. With a towel wrapped around her body, she stepped out of the bathroom and looked for the clothes she would wear. The clock showed at six in the afternoon that meant that soon he would have to be at the restaurant to meet Noah. From the information he got that tonight Noah is going to dinner at a fancy restaurant.

Anneke sat at the dresser about to put on makeup but she was stunned staring at her reflection in the mirror. ‘Do I have to meet him with my real face or stick with my ugly face as usual? Ah, what's the difference? After all Noah still won't look at me, he doesn't even know my real face.’ murmured while cursing Noah in his heart.

Finally she decided to apply her body and face as usual. Hiding behind a thick makeup mask and body painting that he has been doing for the past ten years. Anneke began to polish all over her body with brown body painting so that her smooth white skin was completely covered.

It was her turn to apply makeup as usual and put on her wig. All this time Anneke always looked like it obeyed what her cousin Kaylee said. She foolishly did whatever Kaylee told her.

Although his efforts never succeeded, Anneke never gave up for ten years. The girl was so naive that she didn't realize she had been cheated roundly by her cousin. Annekee looked at her appearance in front of the mirror with a smile.

“Hahahaha....I'm so ugly! But no problem, usually Noah sees me with a look like this.”

Anneke was silent for a moment. “How would Noah react if he saw my real face? Ahhhh no....no... that fucking jerk! I must be strong, this time I must not beg her to stay with me. After this, I'll be home soon, I won't let any woman become Madame Arsenio! No!”

“Noah could have been with other women out there, after all during these ten years we also never met. Not once have we met since we got married ten years ago. But, Mrs Arsenio's position will remain mine! I don't care if Noah loves me or not! I can enjoy my life and squander the money!”

With a certain step Anneke left her room and went down to the hotel lobby. The taxi he booked was waiting in front of the hotel and as soon as Anneke got into the car, he told her the address. It didn't take long for him to arrive at the fancy restaurant but at the same time he saw from afar there was a traffic jam at the door to the restaurant.

He saw how Noah helped the woman get out of the car and held her hand in a friendly manner. After the front queue moved forward, Anneke's taxi stopped at the entrance of the restaurant and he got off. Regardless of people's gazes at him, perhaps they felt strange about his appearance.

“Sorry Miss. Where are you going?” a man in uniform intercepts Anneke as he wishes to enter.

“I want to go inside for dinner. Why?” ask Anneke astonished.

The man and his partner looked at Anneke with a condescending look, even though he was wearing branded clothes but the restaurant staff thought that everything Anneke was wearing was a fake item aka KW. “This restaurant has been booked. No empty table for you, Miss.”

“Really? But I see inside there is still an empty table that seems not on reservation.”

“Oh that, our staff has not had time to put a reservation sign on the table because just an important guest is servicing it.” replied the staff explained.

Although Anneke looked like a poor person with her appearance yet they still politely chased her away subtly for not wanting to ruin the reputation of the restaurant.

“Who are the guests who are reserving? I know you're lying! Do you think I can't afford to eat here?” ask Anneke who has begun to be provoked by his emotions.

“Sorry Miss. Not that we're condescending to you but you better not make a fuss here. This is a famous restaurant and all the guests who come here are important people.”

“Oh so? I came here to meet Noah Arsenio, my husband.”, said Anneke who suddenly made everyone who heard his words laugh.

“Nona, you better go now. Are you not wrong? Mr. Arsenio just booked this place for dinner with his girlfriend. And you claim to be his wife?”

“Hahahaha....miss! Please don't embarrass yourself. Is deserved? Look at your appearance, it's so inappropriate! Didn't you see Mr. Arsenio's lover? Ck.....preferably you leave immediately before we call the officer to drag you from here.” said the hotel manager who looked at Anneke's appearance with a look of disgust.

“You will regret treating me like this. Okay, I won't go inside but please tell Noah that his wife is waiting for him!” anneke said firmly.

“You go and tell Mr. Arsenio. Does he really know this woman?” the restaurant manager told a staff member.

Not long after the staff returned and whispered to the restaurant manager. The two of them looked at Anneke sharply while smiling cynically.

“Nona, our staff asked Mr. Arsenio and he said that he does not know you! Please leave here!” said that manager.

Suddenly Anneke lunged in and immediately shouted angrily calling out Noah's name.
