Second Bride Young Master
CHAPTER 18 | Wife meet Mistress

......................

"So. Do you want to admit that you're jealous, hmm?".

Lyra widened her eyes. Then move to Stay away from Alessio. Unfortunately, the man did not give him a chance to stay away because in the next second, the man hugged his waist from behind.

Suddenly, his blood rippled as he felt the breath of Alessio at the nape of his neck.

Unfortunately, they did not continue the conversation. Theo came first.

"Mr Alessio. Mr. Romanov calls you in your study"

Lyra could feel Alessio's originally relaxed posture becoming tense. Plus Theo who speaks formally, makes Lyra more sure something is wrong here.

He did not know Nikolai Romanov personally. But from what he knew from the servant here, the man was very firm and did not look at the fur whether it was on his men or on his own son.

Information about Aleshia Romanov. Alessio's mother has been dead since Alessio was nine years old.

"Why did you let him go to my study?"

"Then where should he meet you?"

Theo's question is like a checkmate to Alessio. It made the man instantly silent. Then his face turned soft as he stared at Lyra.

"You wait for me, I promise it won't be long baby". He kissed Lyra on the forehead before coming out with Theo behind him.

Of course Lyra won't be waiting. The girl chose to go to her favorite room, the music room.

There, he started playing the piano. Playing the piano can always make him forget the things that burden his mind from the beginning — makes him feel free. It feels very calm.

Until then, the calm was shattered when he heard the clapping of someone's hand.

Lyra turned her back, not believing at all that the person in front of her was the last person on earth she wanted to meet.

Asteria.

"Wow! In addition to taking people's husbands, you also have other talents huh?". Sarkas. A slanted smile adorned his face.

Lyra stared at Asteria from top to bottom. Her appearance is quite fashionable and classy, her face is also quite beautiful. But these women did not reach their level at all.

He replied calmly, "Why? Maybe I have the talent to attract the attention of the opposite sex and defend it. Unlike someone I know —who can't even keep her husband's attention". Said insinuating.

Faded was already all the face of the purplishness of the Asteria. The woman now showed her fangs, staring intently as if she was wielding with sword eyes at Lyra. Asteria took a step closer.

"So talk! you're just an affair! don't be so self-informed". Fiercely word.

It's true, what should Asteria be afraid of? here it's higher than this cheap lady. Asteria is a legitimate wife, and this woman —Lyra is nothing more than an affair that soon Alessio will be bored. Inner Asteria.

Lyra folded her hands under the d*da and puffed her d*d. Then said haughty.

"Then? this is my home —given by Alessio. Why should I keep my way of speaking? aren't you the one who has to take care of the way you talk. You're just a guest here". Lyra said emphasizing the word 'my house'

"Shut up!". Asteria raised her hand, about to slap Lyra until then she thought twice about what consequences she would get if she slapped Alessio's affair.

"Wait for what else? You scared?". Challenge Lyra. Maybe she does not have a ring and also the last name Romanova —but when remembered if Alessio prefers it than the women of this village makes Lyra feel strong.

Actually, he was trying to mediate earlier. But when Lyra's brown eyes give her a code behind Asteria's back to not interfere, she chooses to see their debate. Until finally Asteria prepared to slap Lyra —but again the girl prevented him through the gaze of her eyes.

"Close your mouth! Basic p*lac*r not know yourself! I'll make you regret finding it because of me. It's better for a woman to snatch up a husband like you better be burned in hell". Asteria growled while cupping Lyra's face roughly between her thumb and index finger.

But Asteria was not finished, the woman continued her words.

"You think I'll let you take Alessio away from me? You don't know what I went through to get all this". He laughed bitterly. "Of course not. All you have to do is look beautiful while I'm —"

"Asterian... Ku—, please let me go. A—I'm sorry, whatever it is a—I didn't mean at all. Please, let me go. Ka—kau hurt me". Lyra suddenly begged.

Lyra's unexpected reaction was very surprising both Asteria and Theo — which was behind Asteria. It was amazing when he changed from a girl who did not know himself to a girl who was injured as if he was a victim —padahat here Asteria was the victim.

For a moment there, Theo was glued to see it. It's just that Lyra looks so innocent with her round eyeballs looking pleading and childlike innocence, she can't help but be captivated.

How he made others the most evil criminals in the world when Lyra was the one who was guilty. Even Asteria was stunned and Theo almost fell into her honey-colored round eyes and quivering lips.

Si*lan! He almost drags Asteria to apologize to Lyra.

Until he knows the reason...

"What's going on here?"

"Official!". Lyra cried, then ran past Asteria and headed towards Alessio's hug.it looked like the most innocent girl in the world, as if Alessio had just saved her from a big bad wolf. It was as if Theo had not seen him provoke Asteria.

Clever. Smart girl.

Alessio affectionately kissed her temple while stroking her back as Lyra hugged her with tearful eyes, like a doe, looking at her like a wounded little girl and asking for protection.

The scene was almost theatrical. Both Asteria and Theo could only gawk in disbelief at him. Lyra was trembling in fear, looking very innocent like an angel with her white gown that was expanding at the waist that stopped below her knees, looking very innocent like an angel, showing off her beautiful legs as she tiptoes to rest her entire body weight onto Alessio. Her grayish-brown hair was tucked away in Alessio's d*da as Alessio hugged her protectively.

True nonsense, but si*lan, to Theo she looks beautiful.

Lyra really looked like an angel, even her tears looked like a circle of holy water from heaven. Who doesn't believe him? He almost did it.

If he had not seen the whole argument between Asteria and Lyra, he would have believed it.

"Theo, why did you shut up when I told you to look after him". Alessio's voice sounded angry, no doubt making Theo gulp his saliva with difficulty.

"Alessio— listen to me! Don't believe this two-faced woman! He's just pretending to be Alessio, please". Asteria is approaching. Alessio raised his hand.

"Enough! Go Asteria!"

"T—but Alessio I—".

"Say away!". Alessio's word was sharp, Asteria looked at him in fear. And then looked at him begging —agar Alessio to trust him. But all he got was the cold gaze of the man.

The last thing Asteria saw was a slanted smile on Lyta's face that was sinking in Alessio's d*da.
