THE HUMILIATED SUBSTITUTE HUSBAND
CHAPTER 19: THE WAGE

Richard just widened his eyelids. The grip of the ballpoint pen in his hand strengthened, furiously snapping the stationery at the table a few taps. “Oyour no longer walks where, huh?” jolt the man with a spearhead pointed look.

Delon blinked with a gaping mouth, he only realized if he misspoke. Naturally, because Delon had never met the boss' wife. “Ma.. sorry, Sir. I don't know either!” delon looked down inside.

A heavy sigh blew from Richard's mouth. Remove the tie violently and then throw your back on the back of the chair. “Find out!” richard's edict did not want to know where the source his assistant was going to dig up from.

Be quiet for a while, think quickly about where she should get information about pregnancy. Until a name that crossed Delon's mind, made the man nod excitedly. Delon immediately grabbed his phone and pressed a call on someone.

After a few seconds, Delon seemed excited as his call was answered. Without paying attention to the surprise of the boss.

“Halo, Caty!” hello Delon made Richard choke on the air.

A very familiar name in the ear. Yeah, Richard still has a pent-up mistake on that woman named Caty. Five years ago, Richard ran away on his wedding day with his grandfather's chosen mate. Since then, they have never communicated again. And now, Delon seems to be inviting a storm between the two lovebirds.

“There's something important, Delon?” reply the woman on the other end of the phone. Richard could certainly hear it clearly, as the loudspeaker had been activated.

“Ah, no. I just wanted to ask you something. You must answer without answering any other questions!” firmly Delon.

“Ya, please.”

Delon took a deep breath before finally making a sound, “Cat, what are the characteristics of pregnant women?” ask the man without further ado.

“Emm... Not all symptoms are the same. There is nausea vomiting, there is often dizziness, often fainting, there are also no symptoms. Uh, by the way, which woman are you hamili, Delon? Dare also you turned out,” said Caty chuckled.

“Ah so, not me, but the boss!”

“What?” caty yelled at the ears of two men there.

Richard hurriedly ran from his seat, even to the point of almost falling down to be able to silence his assistant.

“Delon! So Icad is home?” caty added.

Delon froze when he turned his head, and found the boss's plot. His lips were shut because Richard had closed them. Delon nodded in understanding, aware of his mistake. Though on the other end of the phone, Caty's voice continues to scream calling Delon's name.

Seeing that it was safe, Richard grabbed Delon's phone and turned it off unilaterally. Richard then took off his arm.

“Delon!” richard's screams blared right in Delon's ear. His ear drum felt like it was shaking violently. Richard's entire body even stiffened accompanied by an irregular roar of breath.

“Aayys! I don't want to see him, Delon. What if he comes here later, huh? Your mouth is!” annoyed Richard kicked Delon's ass without energy.

Richard was just confused as to how to apologize to Caty and his family. It's not on Richard's list of plans yet. It's just not ready.

“Wait! Nausea vomiting? Dizziness? Don't-don't ..” With all his regret, Richard just remembered Caty's answer.

“Your wife is pregnant, Sir?”

“Do not know! But the signs are similar. It's out there! If Caty comes, throw him out. Tell me I haven't come home!” richard sat back in his chair.

“Good, Sir. Thirty minutes to go we have a meeting with a client from abroad. The place is at Cafe Green House,” Delon said before finally getting out of the room.

Richard's mind floated on the wife. His black-eyed bead moved on the calendar sitting at the table, grabbing it while recalling. “Two months ago, on this date I have sworn before God and your parents to be your companion. Maybe everything I do is still not enough to pay for the most valuable thing in your life, even you look depressed. May my departure bring happiness to you, Velyn,” murmured the man imagined his wife.

Richard opened M-Banking on his phone. He just remembered, all this time had never given a living for his wife. His fingers moved agilely to transfer some money to his wife's personal account, which was once given when they were just a day married. Although Velyn insulted him at that time, the living he gave was definitely not much. After typing a message, Richard immediately prepared for a meeting.

\=\=\=\=ooo\=\=\=\=

Of Villa ....

Velyn grew frustrated when he was not informed by anything from the Villa guards. They only told of Richard's life journey with his grandfather. Suddenly in the middle of a crush, Velyn got a bank notification on her phone. The flat object was always taken anywhere, worried if Richard gave word and he did not know.

Velyn's forehead frowned deeply, surprised to get a transfer with fantastic value. His eyes widened, counting the numbers listed afraid of wrong look. Seeing him repeatedly, it turns out his view is not wrong. The three-digit nomination with six numbers behind it is staggering.

“Richard Aerospace?” velyn murmured while reading the name of the sender. The more surprised the woman. His chest was pounding incoherently.

The next notification is also back in, transfer with the same sender with a different nominal. Only two digits. “Jeez, what is this?” velyn muttered in wonder.

A message also entered his phone with a foreign number. “Sorry for forgetting to give you a living for two months. 300 million for you, while 30 million for ART I brought yesterday. Please give yes, I did not have time” ~Richard.

Velyn's mouth gaped wide, her heart rate increasing many times over. His fingers vibrated when he pressed the call icon on the number. Repeatedly Velyn managed to catch her breath and swallowed her hard-earned saliva, while waiting for a waiting ring on her phone.
