My Bossy CEO Husband

Eris tightly gripped the steering wheel with both her hands as she drove recklessly back to her apartment.She looked straight ahead with eyes burning with rage.She reached the underground garage and entered the elevator.

A silent hum came to life behind the two metal doors.

The elevator doors parted open.

Eris took a peek along the corridor and a huge weight came off her shoulders when she saw that there was no one there.

Finally, she could breath and relax since there were no paparazzi waiting for her there.

However, the relief on her face quickly dissipated and turned to disappointment.

The implication of what had just happened began to dawn on her.

She was no longer as popular as she was before.

For a celebrity like her, this was a devastating blow.

Eris typed the password on her door, kicked her high heels halfway across the room, walked barefoot towards the sofa, and threw herself on it.

Her eyes were vacant for a second.

It didn’t take long for those same eyes to burst into tears.

At first, her cries were mostly silent, broken by an occasional sniffle or two.

Then, they started to get louder and louder until they transformed into anguished wails that echoed across the room.

In a span of one moming, she felt both the highest and lowest point of her life.

Alone in the living room, there was nothing to distract her from her thoughts.

The memory of her parents being taken away by the police flashed in her head, and she couldn't help but think of what future she might have left.

The bleakness of it all made her cry even harder.

Suddenly, Eris turned towards the door, the sound of the doorbell interrupting her crying spells.She was in no condition to receive any guests.

Her hair looked disheveled and her swollen eyes made it painfully obvious that she was undergoing some sort of breakdown.

It didn't help that her white dress looked wrinkled and dirty and her headache made her movements look very lethargic.

If she were being cast to be a female ghost, she would've been perfect for the part.She feebly pushed herself up from the sofa with the help of the armrest.She dragged her feet across the floor and staggered towards the porch where a tablet was located.

This tablet was connected to the surveillance camera outside the door, allowing her to see any incoming visitor.
