Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 15

Chapter 15 Embarrassment
Annalise raised her eyebrow cheekily as she smiled at Samantha. “This man has done
his research. He even knows you like piano songs,” she teased.
“I wish that Benjamin prepared this for me,” Samantha thought bitterly.
“Let’s go. Let’s see if he’s good-looking or not,” Annalise joked.
Samantha’s eyes flickered as both of them entered the Moon Hall arm in arm.
Annalise was stunned when she saw the person who was playing the piano on the
stage in the middle of the Moon Hall.
Benjamin was wearing a white shirt and tie. His slender fingers danced across the black
and white keys as music sprang from the piano. The whole setup accentuated his
elegance and nobleness.
However, Annalise was utterly disgusted.
No matter how good he was at playing the piano, how good-looking he was, or how
elegant he looked, she thought he was absolutely disgusting.
After Benjamin saw that Annalise had arrived, he continued playing the piano as he
smiled gently at her. She used to say that she liked the way he looked when he was
playing the piano.
Annalise was grossed out by Benjamin’s smile. She removed Samantha’s hand from
her arm and looked at her suspiciously. “So, is this the blind date that you were talking
about?”
Samantha immediately grabbed Annalise’s arm and apologized, “I’m so sorry, Anna.
Benjamin did all these romantic gestures because he truly loves you. I’m your best
friend, so I want you to be happy.”
“No. You’re not my best friend. You’re Benjamin’s best friend!” Annalise pulled her hand
away as she was hurt. by the deception.
She might not have many friends, but she treated each one of them sincerely.
Furious and disappointed, she turned around to leave the private room.
“Anna, wait up! At least hear what Benjamin has to say, Samantha urged as she
extended both of her arms to stop Annalise from leaving.

Benjamin also became anxious when he saw that Annalise was leaving. He
immediately gestured, and rose petals started falling from the ceiling.
One of the petals managed to land on Annalise’s head.
“Anna, I really want you to be happy,” Samantha said.
Annalise fixated her gaze on Samantha and suddenly realized something.
“Samantha has never thought of me as a friend because she secretly looked down on
me. That is why she subconsciously thinks I’m not worthy of Benjamin when she
doesn’t even know the whole picture. So, she thinks I should accept him if he confesses
to me,” Annalise thought to herself.
Annalise blocked Samantha’s phone number and her WhatsApp in front of her and
turned to leave.
“I’m sorry, Anna. I really love you!” Benjamin called out after Annalise.
“I’ve told you before. You’re not worthy of loving me!” Annalise snapped as she walked
outside.
“Annalise Barton!” Samantha yelled.
She had stopped calling her “Anna,” and there was anger in her tone.
Turning around, Annalise was amused as she looked at Samantha and asked, “What’s
the matter?”
“What are you thinking? Someone as noble as Benjamin loves you. What more do you
want? To put it bluntly, you’re just a girl that came from the village. Aside from your good
looks, what more do you think you have? You should consider yourself lucky that
Benjamin wants to be with you. There are a lot of girls that want to be with him, and
they don’t have a chance! Yes, you are beautiful, but how long will your beauty last? Are
you still going to be beautiful in ten years? When the time comes, what would you have
left?” Samantha ranted.
“Are you finished?” Annalise responded as she looked at Samantha coldly.
Samantha seemed to be angered by Annalise’s cold gaze. She continued furiously,
“With Benjamin’s qualities,
do you have any idea how many women tried their best to get married to him? It’s a
blessing to your family that he has his eye on you! He just made a mistake that any
man would have made. Why are you holding it against him? Anna, listen to me. Just
reconcile with Benjamin. You won’t meet another man like him anymore. I’m not saying
that there aren’t any better men than Benjamin out there, but with your qualities, those
men won’t be interested in you.”
Annalise looked at Samantha in amusement and retorted, “If you like disgusting men
like him, why don’t you marry him?”
As expected, some friends only showed their true colors after something had
happened.
Annalise turned to leave while Samantha yelled after her, “You’ll be sorry! After turning
down Benjamin, you won’t find another man like him in your life!”
“What’s so good about him?”
All of a sudden, a man’s voice was heard at the door.
Benjamin and Samantha were stunned to see Julian.
Even the staff who were getting ready to produce the man-made snowflakes were
stunned. “Oh, no. Things aren’t looking good for Mr. Quigley. This man has such an
elegant aura. Although he is just wearing a regular shirt and pants, he gives off such a
noble aura,” they thought.
“Why are you here?” Annalise asked.
“My wife is getting bullied. How can I not be here?” Julian said as he walked toward
Annalise and put his arm around her waist.
