The Lady Rich System
Chapter 32: The eighth mission

"Can your cooking be eaten?" asked Laura who stopped her husband's steps when he was going back to the kitchen.

Arsenio sighed at him hearing his wife's question which sounded like mocking him. Then he said,

"At least I tried so hard to be able to cook food for someone. Unfortunately that person doesn't appreciate my hard work."

"Mas insinuating me? I suddenly wanted pizza when I saw the commercial on TV. Did I order it wrong? I don't know either, all of a sudden I want to eat pizza" Laura said in a trembling voice and teary eyes.

Instantly Arsenio felt guilty seeing his crying wife. He quickly approached his wife and hugged her, saying,

"I'm sorry, honey. I'm just tired. Don't cry, eat the pizza. I'll clean the kitchen first."

Laura nodded her head. He also did not understand why he was like that. He didn't take a headache. According to him, all this is due to the fatigue of his heart, mind and body.

"Eat with me, after that Mas can clean the kitchen and throw away the food if not sure it can be eaten," Laura said while chuckling at the end of her speech.

Arsenio smiled bitterly as she sighed. He laughed at himself as if he was being bullied by his wife.

Deftly, Arsenio immediately threw away all the ingredients and dishes. He even cleaned the kitchen so that it was clean again. 

"It's a good thing I haven't cooked rice yet" Arsenio muttered with a smile. 

He approached his wife and joined her to eat pizza.

It turns out I can't do anything without him. Laura is a wonderful wife. I can't lose her, Arsenio said in her heart as she looked at Laura who was greedily eating pizza.

Feeling full, Laura stopped eating. He returned to his room without waiting for Arsenio who was still finishing the pizza.

"Darling, the soft drink wasn't drunk?" arsenio asked by opening the door of her room slightly.

"Take a drink, I've had a mango smoothie before," Laura replied as she looked at the screen of her phone.

"The mango? Tumben?" chirps Arsenio who is still at the door of her room.

"Again wish to," Laura replied briefly without turning her head towards her husband.

Arsenio closed the door. He's back to where he belongs. Now he relaxes while enjoying the pizza and soft drink at the table.

After spending it all, Arsenio cleaned up the place. He did not want his wife to get angry with him.

"I'm so tired today. I'd better get some sleep now" Arsenio muttered as she moved from her seat.

Inside her room she saw Laura who was already lying down and closed her eyes. Immediately Arsenio lay down and hugged his wife.

Laura mutinied to release herself from her husband's embrace, saying,

"Don't think I've forgiven you. I'm still very disappointed in you."

Arsenio was frustrated again. She thought Laura had forgiven her. But now he only knew that his wife was still not fully able to forgive him.

Arsenio knew he was wrong. He also did not blame his wife, because he understood that his wife behaved that way because of her fault. 

Many times Arsenio tried to be forgiven by his wife. Laura prefers silence. She wanted her husband to really understand the meaning of her anger. And she wanted her husband to know how Laura meant to Arsenio.

Arsenio re-embraced his wife's body tightly as if she didn't want to lose it.

Laura was no longer rebellious. He felt useless because Arsenio's energy was stronger than him. He just kept quiet and closed his eyes, hoping that tomorrow morning would be a nice day for him.

By morning, Laura felt her throat was very dry. He got up from his sleep and picked up a drink in the fridge.

After he picked up a drink, he went back inside his room.

However, when he was about to open the door of his room, he came back face to face with the object that always gave him the mission. On the panel was written the mission to be done by Laura.

Laura sighed, again she had to give in to her husband.

"Why do I always have to give up?" murmured Laura as if she did not accept the mission.

Laura opened her bedroom door and closed it back. He ignored the panel that was always in front of him as if forcing him to read it.

Laura did not want to read it, she felt that only she was always fighting for their relationship. She never saw if her husband was doing anything for their household. Just now her husband was willing to do what Laura wanted. And that's for the first time.

Unfortunately Laura could no longer avoid. Without intending to read it even the writing in the panel can be read clearly, because the distance of the panel is very close to his face.

'Providing what the husband wants as his birthday gift and doing good to the husband by following his wishes'

Laura breathed back. Even now his body was very weak after reading the additional missions he had to do.

However, there was something that made her smile happily. The reward of that additional mission was enormous.

"Foolish with my annoyance at him. The prize money is huge, I need it very much. Moreover, I must not fail if I do not want to feel the punishment," Laura muttered while biting her fingernails.

He returned to his body. He felt a little calm because he felt his mission this time did not have to spend as much energy as previous missions. It was just that he had to prepare his heart because he felt that his heart would be heavily injured by the mission this time around.

Laura went back inside her blanket. Sensing movement, Arsenio opened her eyes. Then he said,

"Where did it come from?"

"Take a drink," Laura replied as she closed her eyes.

Arsenio brought Laura's body into her arms. He hugged his wife's body tightly and said,

"I'm sorry, honey. Don't punish me in this way. I feel so tormented if you're mad at me."

Laura remembered her mission. She returned her husband's embrace and said,

"Don't repeat it again. I won't forgive you if you have a relationship with any woman."

Arsenio looked at Laura. He smiled and nodded his head in response to his wife's request.

"Emmm Mas, is there anything you want?" laura asked, looking into her husband's eyes.

Arsenio seemed to think. After a few seconds he said,

"There was. But I'm afraid you'll be angry later."

Laura scrunched her forehead as she said,

"What's that?"

"No. I'm not gonna say it. You just forgave me. I don't want you to get angry with me again" Arsenio said firmly.

Like I thought. It is impossible that the mission given is very easy. I should be able to seduce her so she would say it, Laura said in her heart.

Laura moved her face closer to her husband's. With a quick movement she kissed the lips of her husband. After that he said,

"I promise you, I won't be angry. Whatever it is."

Seeing his wife like that, Arsenio believed that his wife would not be angry with him.

He put his lips close to his wife's ear and whispered something to her.

Laura's eyes were wide open to hear what her husband wanted. In his heart he said,

Whatisthis? Why should I grant his wish?
