Falling For The Man I Married

Chapter 46: Lunch break

"So, where is your 'dear husband', Mrs Wilsons?" Sandy asked me sarcastically when we get back to work the following day after my two days off at home.

It's already 10:00 o'clock but Gabriel hasn't arrived yet and I have already cancelled his first and second appointment pf the day.

"Stop calling me that, someone might hear you!" I glared at her.

"Okay... then answer me, where is our boss?"

"Why are you asking me, I am not his mother!"

"Excuse me? But you are his wife, you should know where he is!"

"Sandy, we're just married on a piece of paper and you know that and to answer your first question, honestly... I don't know. Our last meeting was on Saturday afternoon and he said he's going to meet Stacey." I almost whispered the last word.

"Ohh... so he's with his ex on your first wedding night... nice!"

"Stop it, Sandy!" I said getting annoyed with her teasing.

"Oh, but why? I'm not doing anything here, I'm just repeating your words, 'duh!"

I remained quiet and focused on the computer screen.

"Have you tried calling him?" she asked, taking her seat in front of my desk.

"I've been trying to call him since last night, but it always goes to his voicemail and even this morning until this time, I'm still trying but he's not answering."

"What about his meeting today and some of his appointments?"

"I have already cancelled his two-morning meetings. I need to talk to him, he must inform me if he's still going to work today, so I can also call the companies that had already set an appointment today and to avoid any complaints from the investors."

"So, he didn't come home even last night?"

"No." 

"Hmm... what do you think he's doing right now? Or even last night and the night of your wedding? Especially when he's with his ex?"

"I don't know! And whether he's fucking his ex every day and every hour, I don't care! I just need him to show up now, because I'm going insane thinking what kind of reasons I'm going to say to cancel his business appointments!"

"Uhuh... yeah, you don't care, but your heart does. Tsk. tsk. You're under the spell of what they called, madly in love---- oh no, Madielyn in love!" and she laughed like a villain in some drama movie.

"Can you just...argh! Sandy please, just get back to your work. I need to send some emails and finish some reports!"

"All right." she shrugged. "Just inform me as soon as he arrives. Bye, Mrs Wilsons."

I just bit my lips and glared at her.

It's exactly 11:45 on my wristwatch when my phone vibrates at the top of the folders on my left side. My heart started to pound inside, hoping it's the person I am expecting to call at that moment. But to my disappointment, it's not him but his cousin, Greg.

"Hi, Greg." I tried to sound jolly.

"Hello, ever beautiful Madi... how are you?" at least he makes me smile.

"I'm fine, Gregy. How about you?" I asked as I leaned into my seat.

"At this moment, hungry." and I chuckled with his answer. "Can I invite you for lunch today, Madi? There's just someone here who's eager to see you."

"Ohh... Can I know who that someone is?"
