Falling For The Man I Married

As far as I remember, I was the one dragging Sandy out of the CEO's office, but now she's the one pulling my hand into her office.

As soon as we both entered, she closed the door and I chuckled when she locked it.

"Sit down!" 

My eyes went widened. I looked like a dog that got an order from its owner to sit down. Ohh.. maybe a moment later she would also want me to roll over. Arf! Arf!

"Madielyn Davis! Is there something I need to know or would you like to tell me?"

I bit my lip to control my laugh. "What?" I acted innocently.

She glared at me as she put both hands on her hips.

"Don't you ever what---what me Madielyn Davis! What just had happened in the CEO's office? What's the meaning of your so-called 'I'm sorry, love?"

"Ohh.. that one?" 

"Madielyn!" she pulled her hair out of frustration. And seeing her in that state made me laugh so hard.  I really like making fun of her.

"Wait, I told you I'll share this to you after----"

"No! I can't wait any longer! Spill the bean right now! My god, you almost kissed earlier. What was that? Don't tell me---" her eyes widened before screaming.

"Oh my God, Sandy! Keep your voice down!" my face turned red as I looked out of the blurred glass panel of her office.

"Oh come on, I've locked the door."

"You locked the door, yes.. but this is not a soundproof room! What are you thinking?" I glared at her as I motioned for her to get into her seat.

"Fine, I'm sorry." she immediately walked towards her swivel chair. "Now spill it!"

"Sandy, let me remind you, this is not a real relationship, not a real engagement and not a real marriage."

"But why we're you calling each other 'love' earlier?"

I sighed as I looked into her round eyes before speaking.

"He wants me to call him love, I mean.. this would be our term of endearment when he introduces me to his family and when we're in front of his 'so-called ex-fiancee'."

"Ohh... but why is there a bitterness in your voice when you mentioned 'his so-called ex-fiancee'?" she mimicked my words and I frowned.

"Bitterness? What are you talking about? As I told you, this is just a 'fake' relationship." I emphasized the word 'fake' in front of her face.

"Fake' relationship... okay." she put her right thumb on her chin as she nodded. "Anyway, what made you decide to agree? I thought you didn't want to get involved in his 'so-called revenge' on his ex? So, what happened?"

sighed again as I looked straight at the shelves in front of me, which is why I
