"Did it go well with your designers? " Marcus asked me before I could ask anything.
"Oh yeah we found really good designers. My trip here was a lot more successful than I thought"
" Ein schones Paar!" We heard a woman clap with joy seeing us.
(A beautiful couple)
"Wir haben Mond- und Sternarmbander. Wenn Sie diese kaufen, wird Ihr Leben fur eine sehr lange Zeit glucklich sein"
The woman showed us 2 bracelets with a moon and star.
(We have moon and star bracelets. If you buy these, your life will be happy for a very long time)
" Mochten sie kaufen?" The woman looked at us expectantly. I turned to Marcus to translate what she said.
(Would you like to buy?)
"She said..."
"Ja gern" Marcus answered the woman surprising me.
(Yes sure)
"You speak German?"
"Yes"
I nodded my head with the a slight praise in return.
"So are we buying the bracelets?" I asked, pointing at the beautiful bracelets the woman was holding.
"You don't want to?" Marcus raised an eyebrow.
"What? No no. I want to. They are lovely. I didn't know you wanted to"
Marcus bought the bracelets and the woman helped us wear them.
I wore the star while he wore the moon bracelet. It was lovely like it was made solely for us.
Marcus looked at my bracelet and gave a small smile. We walked down the road talking about several thing. It was mostly business related but I was happy. We were finally making some progress in this marriage. I still have the divorce in mind but if I'm stuck with him for the time being at least we need to make our relationship not so awkward.
I discovered that when Marcus was not being a snob, he was normally a nice guy. He was handsome before but without the scowl in his face he looked even better. Something changes when he smiles. He looks more like an angel than a devil.
"Serapha"
"Hmm"
"I really wanted to thank you for what you did yesterday. It means a lot" he said with a serious look on his face.
I didn't do much, just held him and asked if he was okay. I was confused as to why he was thanking me again for such a simple thing.
" Well it was nothing. Just helping a friend in need"
Wait did I just friend zone him? Well we definitely weren't more than that. We hated each other but I would be glad if he thinks that we were at least friends and not awkward strangers.
I had to leave for USA and Marcus said that he would be coming tomorrow evening.
I packed my bags and went down to meet the rest of my crew. I saw Sarah talking with Steve. They seemed to be getting along very well.
"Hey you better not tell our secrets to the Empires" I pointed an accusing finger at Sarah.
She raised an eyebrow and laughed.
"As far as I remember, I'm not the one who is married to the heir of the Empire group "
"Well I'm not flirting with him. Just married" I crossed my arms in front of my chest and walked away before Sarah could say something to it.
And turned my head only to see her laughing.
After a long flight we finally landed in New York. I was so exhausted and one of the drivers in my company came to drop me off at home.
I took my suitcase and opened the door to our house. As I went inside I saw a frightened Madeline.
She was talking with some girl.
"Madeline? What's wrong? " She looked at me and she became more anxious.
"Serapha you are here. " Madeline quickly came and took the suitcase from my hand.
"Madeline who is this?" Before Madeline could answer the girl came forward and extended her hand.
" I'm Lara , the maid who used to worked here with Madeline"
"What are you doing here?" That was the first thing that came out of my mouth.
"Serapha" Madeline looked back and forth at me and Lara.
Lara gave me a smirk warning me about her next words.
" I'm pregnant with Marcus's child " with that she touched her stomach showing me the small baby bump.
I felt my world crumbling around me. I wanted to shrink into a corner and cry. Everything I built, my company, my reputation, my friendship with Marcus all going down just like that.
If media gets this news everything would fall apart. I was walking on thin ice at the moment.
They wouldn't care about what really happened to Marcus. They wouldn't care if he's the victim of not. The media always portray us as the predator of the society. And they would do anything to keep it like that.
Even though Lara did a crime the child is innocent. If it's really Marcus's child I wouldn't separate a father from his child. The child already got a shit mother so at least he deserves a good father.
I looked at Lara with anger burning inside me. But I didn't want to argue with a criminal so I turned around and walked into my room.
"Is she that scared?" I heard Lara chuckle.
