When Cheating Becomes a Shortcut
Dissolved into regrets

"Darling ... later tonight you don't have to bother cooking, mommy invites us to dinner!" devan said after he had lunch in his office with Catherine who was feeding the man.

The two of them sat next to each other on the sofa in the room with Devan always playing with Catherine's hair.

"Well, I'll be ready in the afternoon and leave immediately. You just leave here, Dev! Our house will be across from the residence of daddy and mommy, if you pick me up, you will go back and forth." Catherine looked at Devan with a big smile.

"It's okay, honey! Let me pick you up later." Devan smiled back at Catherine.

Catherine took her breath. "It's up to you!" catherine.

"But if you can get home early, Dev! I want to help mommy cook!" catherine smiled.

"Alright, but you don't get tired! There are many servants, you just tell them what you need!" devan said as he shook his wife's head.

"Devan, my hair is a mess!" catherine blushed her lips.

"Don't tease me, I won't do anything!" said the Man.

"Who's teasing you?" Catherine looked at her husband.

"This what?" Devan touched Catherine's lips with his index finger. Catherine held Devan's finger, then looked at the man in annoyance.

However, Devan looked at her with a smile that expands until slowly Catherine also smiled because stunned by the smile of her husband.

Their gazes met, channeling a deep sense of love in their respective hearts. The feeling of happiness that they could not express through words, was now channeled with just a gaze.

When they were still looking at each other full of Love, suddenly the room opened and Randa appeared in the doorway.

Both Devan and Catherine turned their heads towards the entrance staring at the man differently. If Devan looks at Randa with a genuine smile, while Catherine looks at the man flat with an indecipherable look.

Randa who forgot to knock on the door, now she bent her body slightly. "I'm sorry, Sir! I forgot to knock on the door!" randa lowered her head. The man was about to close the door again, but Devan prevented it.

"Home, just come in!" devan's word with a smile.

"Good, Master!" Randa bowed her body slightly, then entered and closed the door of the room again.

"Please sit!" devan's word extended his hand to a chair across from his desk.

"Good, Master!" randa replied as she stepped up and sat down on the chair.

"Dev, I'll go home!" catherine smiled.

"Yes already. Careful, honey!" devan replied, smiling at Catherine.

Catherine nodded with a smile looking at her husband. However, the romance of the two makes Randa envious and even more sorry for wasting Catherine.

The man pretended not to care, with all his might he held himself back from looking pitiful.

"Yes, Honey! Yes it's there! I may not be doing my job if you're still here!" devan said with a smile that did not fade.

Catherine smiled, then walked out of the room. While Randa, she was deeply hurt and continued to linger in deep regret.

Devan turns to look at Randa after Catherine's shadow disappears behind the door. The man stepped up and sat on his seat of greatness.

The man smilingly looked at Catherine's ex-husband, he did not hold a grudge against Randa, because he was self-aware, that the cause of the destruction of Randa and Catherine's household was himself. Even he feels guilty about it.

"Is there anything you want to say?" devan asked smiling.

"No, Sir! I'd just like to ask for your signature!" randa said as she handed over the files she had brought.

"Well, where's the file?" devan asked with his hands resting on his desk.

Randa handed me the files that needed the man's signature. Devan signed the files after checking them first.
