Chapter 9

Vanessa

As soon as I open the door slightly so I can step out into the hallway and speak to Carmella from there, she swings it wide open and invites herself in.

I stumble from the impact of the door swinging open but soon, regain my balance and turn around to face her.

“Couldn’t you wait until I allowed you to come in?”

“Oh, please!” She rolls her eyes at me. “Like I actually need permission from you for anything”

Though I know what she’s here for, I decide to say nothing about it until she does.

“What do you

“Oh, please. He’s a sexy billionaire. Who wouldn’t like my man?

“Stop putting on this act because I see right through you. Don’t let the moment outside get to your head. You mean nothing to him so know your place.”

“I definitely know my place here.” I slowly run my hand along my collarbone, the one with my diamond wedding ring. Tm just his wife, nothing much.”

She looks at the ring and grits her teeth as she tries to reach for my finger and take it off

I pull my hand away and get closer to her face as I warn her. “Don’t you dare. This is the part where you also know your place.

She takes a step back and ruffles her hair. “Whatever, keep your stupid ring. It means nothing anyway.”

I chuckle with a nod. “You’re right. It only means that I’m Mrs Richards, not you.”
