Chapter 3 3

"I can clearly see that my husband is eager for me, but I'm sorry honey you have to wait a little for me to treat you with love."

She spoke with a loving voice while her black hair strands which were resting on her shoulders covering the indecent amount of exposed cleavage moved. Whereas Markos did not even flinch or hesitated to shrug off her hand with a cold reply, the man had had enough of her tricks but now he wanted something else.

"I'm not your husband to be anymore. There will be no wedding now!"

Without even hearing her response which would have been agitated yet fused with a pleading or threat Markos slammed the door on her face.

The man heaved a sigh and raked through his hair while pondering for the one last time upon his decision taken hastily. He did not want to stay with her anymore and had enough of enduring Carla, although she was not a bad woman per say nor a Karen.

But her obsession with Markos was unhealthy and stayed hidden from everyone until she trapped Markos and his family in the marriage. The man turned around to see Valeria but the woman had rushed towards the washroom after she heard Carla's voice.

The man had no clue why she did that but it amused him to the extent that Markos strode towards the washroom. He knocked on the door with a playful voice while addressing Valeria on the basis of his assumption.

He had already known by now that she was not a prostitute or someone who had the intentions of tricking him for money or something like that. If she had to do any such thing she would have appeared in front of Carla to convince her that Markos had raped her or forced Valeria into some immoral deed.

"Is this an invitation to join you in a bath, dear? I'm glad you are considerate but I wanted to cuddle for a few more minutes. Tsk!" Markos knew she would react upon his words but did not know what was coming ahead.

Valeria sprinted from the washroom with the duvet covering all around her body. The lady was on the verge of crying out of guilt. She lowered her head and blurted out everything which filled in Markos about her.

"I...I didn't know you were Carla's boyfriend," Markos felt the utter pity on the woman who was still justifying herself for Carla, the poor woman did not want to be a homewrecker thus explained herself truthfully.

"I'm...I'm really sorry,l for whatever happened, I didn't know it wasn't my room...I...."

Markos spotted a tear crawling down from her eyes on the cheeks, and the man immediately sprinted towards her by grabbing her shoulders.

Valeria was taken aback when Markos licked the rear and placed a kiss on the same spot.

"What are you doi-"

Her half sniffing whisper got interrupted as Markos lifted her face up and gently placed his lips on hers.

Carla became confused at once upon his sudden change of behaviour, she had no clue why Markos suddenly threw her out of the room just like that. Well of course he didn't actually allow her inside the room.

The lady clenched her fists as soon as the door was slammed in her face. Her makeup caked face might have felt uncomfortable with the fliching and angry wrinkles. Carla wanted to figure out the issue, how could she let the man whom she had chased for so long.

The lady went back for the moment while she rattled out the phone from the pocket of her nightgown and called Markos's father. She knew that the reins of Markos were in his father's hands and she could easily have him back in her hands once again.

Although Carla herself was aware that Markos didn't want to marry her. But her consistent nagging and approaching his father changed his mind. What she didn't know was Markos's other side, the man was not an easy target to manipulate.

He also had prepared something as a gift for the woman, Markos was prepared to teach her a lesson without her knowing. No doubt Carla was a strong woman but she would have never seen the trouble incoming.

Carla belonged to the influential family of Italy that she planned all of her weddings by herself. From arrangements to the dresses and sending out invites all was planned by Carla herself.

Her parents and no say in the matter since after her father passed on the business and wealth to her, Carla proved to be a soaring dragon in the business world. Thus they could not pressurize her to stay away from Markos.

Carla initially thought, well to this day she was delusional about Markos's behaviour that he was easily manipulated by her measly tricks and gave in to marry her. Where in fact Markos Moreno agreed to the deal because his father wanted him to bring in a woman now.

He was already about to hit thirty years old and never dated anyone when his family heard about Carla, they all immediately gave in and presented themselves in need as if that was the situational demand.

Markos was trapped by the situation and had to give in to their demands. Initially he thought that there was no harm in marrying her since the woman was in love with him to the obsessive level.

But the series of events proved to Markos that she was more than psychic, and he began to find a way out of the mess created by Carla. And on the most unfortunate yet fateful day Markos encountered Valeria, the day of his bachelor's night!

Valeria didn't try to seduce him nor did she attempt anything tempting to lure Markos, which made him realize that She was telling him the truth. The very next day seeing Valeria blank and terrified for having a man around her made him curious and interested in her.
