Cassandra?
The atmosphere of the room was very supportive. There was a faint gurgling sound of a fountain from the back garden. The chatter in the dining room also carried over. This time Jessica entered the room first followed by Lexi who walked behind her.
Lexi stood as he closed the door, not forgetting to lock it. His eyes were always on Jessica. His wife graciously stepped closer to the bed and sat there.
Jessica looked back into Lexi’s eyes. She was smiling seductively at him.
“Do I need to wear the red nightgown you bought me?”Jessica asked as she straightened her body to tease her husband.
Lexi was still silent, he swallowed without saying a word, watching Jessica sit and breathe was just plain tempting. Moreover, staring at the wife who wore lingerie! It could be that tonight the two of them would not sleep!
Lexi’s step was getting wider. He sat next to Jessica. They look at each other. He threw in codes that only they know.
“Are you teasing me, Jess?” Lexi grabbed Jessica’s lips and touched with her forefinger.
“Why do I need to tease you? Without teasing, you ” Jessica said. She was still staring at Lexi not intending to initiate it first. No!
Lexi’s hands moved quickly to grab Jessica’s body and kissed her slowly, deeply, and wet. Now, Jessica could not be silent and chose to kiss back the husband’s kiss, with more excitement.
Suddenly, Jessica under Lexi’s body.
“Aaaaa!” Jessica’s voice that surprised Lexi.
“Why?” Lexi looked at Jessica with a wondering look.
“My back hurts!”Jessica sighed in pain as she pushed Lexi away.
Without waiting long, Lexi, who did not want Jessica in pain, immediately moved his body. He looked at Jessica, who was still in pain.
“Does it hurt so much?” Lexi couldn’t bear to see Jessica.
Jessica nodded slowly. “Sorry, it looks like we can’t do it now! My back really hurts!”Jessica lowered her head.
“Yes, tonight we will not do it!”Lexi replied, looking at his pants that felt tight. Jessica’s eyes followed her husband’s. She felt guilty but still couldn’t do it tonight.
Jessica swallowed with guilt.
“Some stand tight but not justice!” He said. “Let’s just sleep! Tomorrow I have to leave for work and will schedule a press conference to announce our wedding!” he was lying down with his back beside Jessica.
“Are you angry?”Jessica asked, taking Lexi’s hand.
“No, I’m not angry! I’m trying to understand and make you comfortable Jess! Don’t touch me or I can’t hold it anymore!” Lexi threatened and wouldn’t look at Jessica’s face. It was still hard, really hard.

That afternoon Jessica, who was bored waiting for Chelsea’s arrival, decided to go to the flower garden next to the House. She left the room and looked for Mrs. Anna first, to ask permission.
“Mom, ” Jessica as she walked up to her mother-in-law who was busy with fashion magazines in the family room.
“Yes, my dear, what is it?” her mother-in-law asked, looking up at the source of the sound. Jessica’s shy face turned towards her.
“Later when Chelsea comes to say I’m in the garden, I miss my roses,” she said politely. All day just in the room without doing anything, really made Jessica dead lice.
“No Jess, you’re still sick. I won’t let you see those roses. You should take a rest and let the maid take care of it. Just sit with me here. Here’s what you should wear!” Mrs. Anna didn’t want to leave the house.
“Yes, Mom,” she approached.
“No rejection, it was Lexi who asked mama to take care of you and not let you out of the house! Come on, just this time, later when you are healed you can spend the day in the flower garden!” She asked Jessica to sit next to her.
“Soon Casandra will also come here, I will no longer lie to her. Mom wants to tell her about Lexi marrying you so that she doesn’t have hopes anymore for Lexi!”she said. Hiding something is exhausting, what’s more hiding Lexi and Jessica’s marriage relationship in front of other women who hope to become Lexi’s wife.
” But Mom, ” Jessica bit her lip. She was afraid of the model’s reaction after telling what really happened.
“Why? Wouldn’t it be better Jess? anyway before the end of the month Lexi will announce and introduce you as her wife,” she explained.
“I’m just not ready Mom, I’m afraid Cassandra will be angry with me!”Jessica recalled a bad memory of the last time to the woman.
“No, you are innocent. You don’t have to be afraid, after all what difference does Cassandra know today or Cassandra knows later. After all, in reality you are Lexi’s wife. You are also a daughter-in-law of the Ricardo family.” This woman took off the hair that felt on Jessica’s eyebrows with great affection. She loved her daughter-in-law so much.
Jessica did not respond, her gaze was fixed on the maid who was walking towards her. “Miss Jessica, your friend has arrived. She is waiting for you!” she said politely.
“Let Chelsea in!”
“Yes, Miss.” The maid approached Chelsea and asked her to come inside to the living room.
Chelsea was excited to meet Jessica. They both hugged for a long time, because they missed each other. It was not for nothing that Chelsea met Jessica this time. There was something important she wanted to say.
“How are you, Jess? I’m sorry I didn’t come to see you! Mr. Lexi does not allow anyone into your room except only his family,” Chelsea said. She had been to the hospital several times, but always nothing because she could not see Jessica at all.
“I’m sorry Chelsea, I didn’t know you were in hospital.”Jessica said sorry.
“It’s all right,” Chelsea said. “I have something to say Jess, Miss Grace can’t come here, she told me to say something,” Chelsea told with a serious expression.
“What?”Jessica was curious and couldn’t wait to hear from her best friend. “What is it?”
“These days, someone was looking for you at the orphanage-,”
“Is that a member of my family?”Jessica was impatient.
“Mrs. Grace doesn’t know if it’s your family or not, it’s just that they are looking for a child who twelve years ago was placed in the kasih bunda orphanage.”Chelsea could sense that Jessica was looking forward to meeting her parents.
“Can I meet them?” Jessica asked. She must be careful not to be afraid if Mrs. Anna, Mr. Samuel, or Lexi do not allow her to see anyone who may be a member of his family.
“I don’t know, but Mrs. Grace told them you were married to Ricardo’s family. It could be that you will meet the person who is looking for you Jess, it’s just that I told you not to expect too much!” Chelsea gave advice.
“Yes, I’m just happy Chelsea, it’s the first time anyone’s looking for me, are they my mom and dad?” She asked.
Chelsea did not answer, Someone came into the house and startled them.

Lexi had not finished checking and signing the files that were piled up on her desk. Every now and then he looked at the watch on his wrist. He wanted to go home, and have lunch with his beloved wife.
“Is there a problem, Sir?” Arsene asked. Lexi ws not focused on his work.
“Nothing, I just don’t want to miss my lunch with Jessica!” Lexi said without diminishing his focus on the file he was holding.
“Does anyone want lunch?” Cassandra asked who suddenly appeared in Lexi’s office room.
Lexi was surprised by Cassandra’s sudden arrival. He turned to Arsene and hoped to get an explanation for the presence of uninvited guests.
However, Arsene only shrugged his shoulders cause he didn’t know.
“I brought lunch for my future fiance and his secretary!” Cassandra stepped into the room.
“Fiance?”Lexi and Arsene looked at each other with wondering expressions.
“Yes, tonight my mother will release our engagement plans, Cassandra will be the wife of the heir to the Ricardo Group,” she said aloud with smile on her face.
Lexi swallowed hard. How could Cassandra come suddenly with such bad news.
