-Lilas apartment -"Wife, why are you so pretty?"
"H—Haruka I….Uhh…." She could barely speak. Since they entered the apartment more than two hours ago, Haruka has not let her go. Her legs felt all wobbly, and as Haruka buried his face in her neck. Lila wanted to cry. She isn"t the emotional type normally. But, whenever she gets with Haruka like this - all these emotions...
"Nngh.."
"Is it not good?" Haruka suddenly asked.
"Eh?"
"Your face, you don"t look satisfied."
She doesn"t? But it feels good… "I—I"m sorry, um," Lila brought her hand out to her face. "I keep thinking about what I just saw. Haruka, you ...didn"t do it with her, right?"
"Wife, I didn"t do it. If I did, I"d kill myself."
"Don"t use your life for this kind of thing."
"It isn"t this kind of thing. Your upset; your feelings are the most important," Haruka licked her leg, "Wife, I"ll make sure from now on that n.o.body but you touches me."
"H—Haruka...I…"
…
6:00 am
"Wife, I made you breakfast."
Lila weakly tried to get up, but she failed to do so, and Haruka chuckles. "I"m sorry, wife, it was too good for you."
She would have hit him, but unfortunately, she couldn"t move.
"Honey….Stop making me fall more in love with you."
Haruka smiled, "Isn"t that my job? Eat up, okay?"
Lila nodded, "About today.."
"I settled it already, a press conference, right?"
Haruka gently brought his lips to her neck, "I"m sorry even if we didn"t do anything, I still touched her a bit."
"Haruka…"
"Lila, I"ll tell you, though - that picture it wasn"t me."
Lila looked at him, dumbfounded, "That"s?"
"I hope you don"t mind. But I also made some arrangements on my side."
"Honey, I love you; your amazing ~."
Haruka chuckled, "Yesterday, though was a bit short notice for me to call the subst.i.tute… So other than that time."
Lila nodded so they haven"t done anything?
"I need to disinfect, though; she touched your thing.."
"Wife?"
She crawled over until she was positioned by his trousers, "Haruka is mine…"
"My wife…"
…
A few minutes later
"h.e.l.lo? Yeah, hah...we will be there soon."
Haruka…
Haruka wiped her lips with his thumb, "Want to shower before we leave?"
Lila shook her head, "I"m okay, uh .."
He gently kissed her forehead, "Getting me worked up is bad. But I"ll forgive you."
"Haruka, there"s still a bit left."
"Let"s leave it, and go now."
Lila, however, didn"t budge, "Hubby, I"ll make you worked up."
"It seems like we"re going to be late…"
"Now he"s bothered?" "Have them wait," she mumbled. "Isn"t this more important?"
"Wife, since when were you so bold?"
"It"s your fault, stupid."
….
Haruka gently caressed her cheeks, and Lila laughed softly, "What are you doing?"Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
"Touching my wife."
"Silly were in the car."
"Flirting with my wife," Haruka corrected.
He"s so silly. Lila was in a good mood, though, so she let him flirt with her. Usually, she would make remarks about how stupid he is acting. Or feel weird. But today, Lila hummed as Haruka played with her hair and cheeks. "Wife."
"Yes?"
"Next month, I have to go on a short business trip."
"Trip?"
Haruka nodded. "Yeah."
A trip, but...but… What if something happens the moment she lets him out of her sight? With all the events recently, it won"t surprise her if something does happen. Haruka gently kissed her lips, "You don"t have to worry, wife."
But, whenever he says that she can"t help but worry even more.
__
It was just her imagination; there is no way that happened. But, when she was woken up to several calls, that"s when Mei realized the truth. She immediately rushed over to the sight; thousands of reporters were gathered there already.
"Haruka? What"s going on?" Mei wanted answers, and she didn"t care what people thought.
To her surprise, Haruka coldly brushed her aside and walked over to the seats. He pa.s.sed a bottle of water to the girl who sat in the center. "Here, have a drink first."
Lila laughed, "I"m not thirsty."
"You need to keep hydrated."
It was a simple exchange, but anybody could tell how Haruka only had eyes for Lila.
Mei"s eyes widened when she saw the copies of marriage certificates on the large screen. Wait, wait --- are they going to?
"It"s simple," Lila spoke into the mic. "All those rumors are futile, because why would my husband cheat on me?"
"M—married?!!!" The gasps and shocking remarks from the reporters resembled an earthquake. The entire room shook due to the shock of it all.
"Oh my gosh, everybody get a closeup!!"
All the cameras pointed at the couple, and Mei, who stood near one gaze darkened more. Why? How come? Even though just the other day, she and Haruka were so close with each other. How come once again, it"s all about Teras.h.i.+ma Lila?
"Teras.h.i.+msan, Karas.h.i.+msan, when did you two-register your marriage?"
"It was a short while ago…back when we were in London."
That was just you tricking him into signing papers, b.i.t.c.h! Mei couldn"t believe this. She felt the blood drain from her face. Even without the camera closeups on her face, Mei knew she was incredibly pale. If... If they announce something like this, then everything she"s done up until now...
"But those pictures…and the video..." The reporters seemed very puzzled.
Mei was too. Why would they announce their marriage after that video was exposed? The pictures they could easily dismiss but the video..and well...Mei didn"t understand. Is Teras.h.i.+ma Lila this stupid? Why would she forgive Haruka after all that?
"The person in the video wasn"t my husband."
"What is that supposed to mean?"
Mei rolled her eyes, and she commented. "Wasn"t your husband? Don"t joke around. I can verify that Haruka touched me." How many times have they done it since then? Teras.h.i.+ma Lila, an idiot, did she think she wouldn"t be able to tell? Why bother making such stupid claims. Mei turned to Haruka, expecting him to say something.
"The person Aizawa slept with isn"t me," Haruka also chipped in. Huh? Why is Haruka saying it too?
"That person is coming now."
The doors to the stadium opened.
Wait, who is---- Recognition, immediately filled her eyes when she saw the man step forward. Of course, she could recognize the man who slept with her. Now that she thought about it when she did regain her memories of her first night with Haruka. It isn"t just that, yesterday too when Haruka was kissing her neck... She felt that there was somebody else there. Mei"s face color paled when she realized it. How come?!!
"That"s George Brown."
"Baby girl," George wrapped his arms around her. "Honey, why are people here so rude? They published our photo and used another man"s name…"
Wait, wait what?!!!!
"Think twice before you move," he whispered. Mei felt the knife pressed on her back, and she could only dumbly nod her head. The reporters flash their cameras at her again. She felt her entire body freeze up, what can she say?
"Miss Mei is this true."
"...I..yes…"
"Then, why did you claim you slept with Karas.h.i.+msan?"
"Did you know Karas.h.i.+mSan is married now."
"Why did you try to destroy a marriage when you have your own boyfriend?"
The questions made her speechless. What boyfriend, she is single. The one she slept with is Haruka; it"s Haruka. It can"t be anybody else. But Mei knew she wouldn"t
"I…"
"Honey, doesn"t feel well, let us end the interview here," George said.
She felt so pathetic; Mei could only nod.
…
Backstage
Mei immediately shoved the man away who raised his hand like he was surrendering. "Take it, easy miss. Your body shouldn"t be in a good state."
"What did you do to me?"
"I told him to inject you with certain drugs that will affect your ability to remain sane," a sharp voice interjected.
"H—Haruka I.."
Haruka sighed, "You couldn"t even tell the difference... Are you sure you like me?"
Mei looked at him, horrified. "Of course I do."
"But you couldn"t tell the difference; you"re so stupid."
"No ..I…"
How come she couldn"t tell?
"Hubby?" a sweet voice called out. To her, that sweet voice was sickening; she clenched her fist. Teras.h.i.+ma Lila stood at the doorway.
"Wife, stay over there. I"ll come back."
Mei"s gaze dimmed; all these people do is flaunt their love in front of her. Why? Why can"t she be the one Haruka loves. Why does it have to be this woman?
She grabbed the knife from George and headed towards Lila. But before she could reach the woman somebody stopped her. "Tachibana " a single punch in her stomach, and Mei felt herself losing consciousness.
….

"Now Little Lila, I"m sure we"ve spoken about this already. Leave these flies to big brother."
Lila sweat fell, he"s furious…
Her gaze fell on Aizawa Mei, and she sighed, "Take her to the hospital and give them the antidote."
"Lila?"
"There is no need to deal with her anymore," rather there are more important people to deal with. People like Sophia and Rosalia. She doubts that Aizawa will do anything for now - and if she still cares about her career, then she will be more careful. Everybody in the entertainment circle knows about Aizawa"s feelings for Haruka after all. If they hear that she is still chasing him despite him being married, it will reflect poorly on her.
Lila placed her hand on her forehead; she felt tired. Since this entire thing started, she hasn"t been able to get a decent amount of sleep.
