The Cold Wife
Chapter 25

Sweet folds his face and puts it in its original place. He sat down on the bed, raised his hands and began to say prayers in his heart. Alex just watched it while straddling. Look at his wife who is still fervent in prayer.

"What are you asking for?" alex asked as Sweet finished praying.

"Temperate the heart of someone who is already as hard as a rock" Sweet said as he pulled the blanket. He was quickly arrested by Alex.

"I want to rest" Sweet said, shaking Alex's hand. The man gives Sweet a brown envelope, leaving her wrinkled in confusion.

"Tomorrow, you work with me at the company. As my secretary, when I need it, you should always be there for me. Depart and come home with me," explains Alex to make Sweet surprised instead of playing.

"I don't agree," Sweet rebutted giving the envelope back. Alex smiled bitterly at it. He just stared at the envelope that was still in Sweet's hands.

"You dare to reject me?" ask Alex to get closer to Sweet. The girl immediately shuffled inside the blanket, her head slightly emerging from under the covers. Looked at Alex alertly.

"Don't come any closer, I'll follow your wishes."

"Good, I like your submissive attitude like this." Alex brought his face closer to Sweet's head, then dropped a kiss there. Sweet was startled by Alex's attitude, and grew closer in a thick blanket. Making the man smile amusedly look at her, while the girl still continued to put on vigilance.

Five minutes passed, Sweet began to fall asleep in his beautiful dreams. A tiring day, made the girl completely complacent and forget if the danger was so close to her.

Alex enters the same blanket, takes the girl into her arms, and falls asleep in a warmth she never felt before.

In the morning, Sweet looks neat in office clothes. She wore a black outer padded with a baby pink shirt and peplum skirt in matching colors. As usual, he used a messy-bun hairstyle. Shows her smooth white neck. After preparing himself, Sweet was confused as to what to do. Right now Alex is in the bathroom, can be heard from the sound of splashing water from there. After much thought, Sweet chose to go for a walk in closet. Prepare the clothes for Alex, and put them on the bed.

After dawn prayers, Sweet cleaned the room and cleaned up. So now the room looks so neat and clean.

Sweet still remembers what Alex said last night, starting this morning he'll be working. Actually Sweet was happy to be back at work, but he felt sad because he would always be close to Alex. The man who always disturbed his life and made him unsettled.

"What are you thinking?"

Sweet jumped in shock as Alex suddenly hugged her from behind. Alex's cold hands are now perfectly circular on Sweet's slender waist.

"Stop that, you keep touching me and making me uncomfortable" he grumbled and turned around.

"I'm your husband, honey. I'm free to do anything to you" said Alex to kiss Sweet on the forehead. But the girl first stayed away.

*"Shut up*! I don't want to hear anything anymore. You keep repeating your words, I know my position here. There's no need to remind me constantly about it. I've prepared your clothes" Sweet said, grabbing his handbag and rushing out of the room. Alex who saw that smiled with satisfaction, then looked at the set of clothes that Sweet had prepared.

"Know your position? Do you think being a wife is only about preparing my needs? You're too innocent or even more innocent than I thought, Ana." Alex wore his clothes casually. A smile continued to develop his thin lips.

"Sweet, you work?" tanya Milan sat next to Sweet who was applying chocolate jam on a loaf of bread. Milan was astonished by the girl's appearance. Mala who was eating bread also nodded her head.

"Yes, he works at my place from today." Alex who just came down answered Milan's questions. Milan and Mala were stunned to hear it. Alex sat in the chair and looked at Sweet.

"But, I don't like jam that's too sweet" Alex continued. Sweet who heard that immediately looked at Alex sharply. But he kept to Alex's words.

"Thank you, dear." Alex said as Sweet gave her jam bread. Milan and Mala were shocked. They immediately looked at Sweet full of probes. Sweet still refused to speak.

"Morning," said Cherry. He sat down in front of Sweet, giving a trivial look at Sweet's appearance.

You see, even though he's already your husband. But he cares more for me, Cherry said in a proud heart.

"It's still a little sore, the doctor said it's only been cured for two weeks." Cherry spoke so spoiled. I plan to make Sweet jealous.

"Sweet, you're so pretty with this look. I'm sure there will be a lot of beetles coming," Mala said intending to quip Cherry. Sweet who heard that only smiled faintly. Alex was quite surprised when he saw that smile, although it was not very clear. But Sweet's smile managed to break his ego. He admitted that Sweet was so sweet when he smiled.

"Sister, can I go to your office today? I'm so bored at home" whined Cherry. Alex glanced at Sweet at a glance, then looked at Cherry back.

"Of course, you used to leave at any time" Alex said. Sweet stared at the two in turn.

"Em, can I come in Brother's car? I haven't been able to drive myself" Cherry continued to seek Alex's attention.

"Yes," replied Alex with a faint smile.

"Sweet, you know that cats don't scratch? You have to be careful with him, it's very dangerous. You have to put on sharper claws," upset Mala who can't stand Cherry's attitude.

"No need, Mala. Sweet has beautiful fangs and fur, just glance a little, charismatic cat will come straight closer. Remember, an expensive cat seen from its elegance opens its paws." This time Milan are in. Cherry who heard that instantly rose in blood. His face was red like a boiled crab.

"Oh, what are you talking about? I don't understand," Alex saw the watch in his hand, "let's go."

Alex wakes up from his seat followed by Cherry and Sweet. Cherry grabbed Alex's arm. Sweet chose to walk behind them expressionlessly.

"Use the limousine" Alex orders the driver. The black-clothed man slightly ran towards the row of neatly parked luxury cars.

Sweet sits on the other side where Alex sits with Cherry. Sweet did not mind it, and looked relaxed with his hands folded on his chest. His eyes kept coming out the window. Staring at the pedestrian who began to look lonely. Since then, Alex has been watching him, watching every inch of his little wife's face. Cherry is upset that Alex is paying more attention to Sweet than she is.

"Sister, what if this wound causes a scar?" ask Cherry to get Alex's attention. Sure enough, the man looked over.

"You're an operation, easy isn't it?" alex sahut flat and again noticed Sweet who was still silent. Makes the woman next to him even more upset.

"Sweet, I'm sorry about that. I shouldn't have upset you then, maybe this isn't going to happen. Sweet, I'm really sorry," Cherry said. The woman continued to look for gaps to knock her opponent down.

Sweet glanced at it, not heeding Cherry's words.

"Sweet, I know you're still mad at me. Brother, I'm sorry to you too. Because of me, your relationship is a little stretched," continued Cherry still trying hard.

"There's no need to apologize, because at the moment our relationship is much closer. Even closer than before, I'm so grateful to you, Cherry. Right, Honey?" alex stared at Sweet meaningfully. The girl only glanced at a glance.

"You know Cherry, your sister-in-law was so spoiled when she was at-"

"Shut up!" sweet's exclaim cuts Alex's words. "Never say what never happened!"

"Ah, you're so sweet when you're angry, honey. I forgot my wife was so shy" Alex said. Makes the cherry hotter. While Sweet was very upset with Alex's increasingly strange attitude.

"Sweet, do you have feelings for my brother?" tanya Cherry glanced at Alex and Sweet alternately. Sweet sighed heavily and looked towards Cherry with a lazy look.

"Nothing!" sahut Sweet leisurely, and looked back out the window. Alex smiled at her, Sweet's reply tickled her heart.

Slowly, you'll fall in love with me, Ana. I'll prove it, you'll be crazy about me. It will be easy to let you go. Inner Alex.
