I’m Just His Wife

I will not disappoint you, Ate Rina. Even if it means my life, I will give you justice. They took lives, they also took lives in return. I make sure of that.

End Of Flashback

I took my breath away when I saw the disappointed face of the board when my group presented the clothing styles to be released this January. I think, they won’t agree with it. Fortunately, I have a presentation ready for the next meeting.

Some board members said goodbye and I could do nothing but fold my arms and nod. This was not the first time, actually. This has happened many times but it was managed.

I can clearly see the sadness in the looks of my employees. I stood up and approached them then forced a smile. It’s just okay for me. There was still next time.

“I’m sorry, Miss Steinfields. We didn’t make it …” said one of them.

I puckered my lips and smiled immediately. “It’s okay, guys. There will be a next meeting and I’m sure the board will finally approve it.”

“But, Mam. We failed you.”

I tapped his shoulder. “You know what, be glad when you experienced failure.” I said smiling.

“What? What do you mean, Miss Steinfields?” asked a female employee and slightly adjusted her mirror.

I sighed and smiled again. “Be glad when you experienced failure because they were just delays. What happens after matters the most. So don’t ever lose your hopes. Don’t give up. Don’t ever think less of yourselves. Remember that in my sight, you were all winners. You successfully did your jobs well done. ” I preach to them.

An employee grinned. ‘that was the reason why I can’t ever do leave this company. You’re a great boss, Miss Steinfields. You work very well and smooth that’s why the company was stable and successful. We were so grateful that we’re working here in your company. ”

I laughed a little. “Enough with that, please. So, let’s just go back to work. I have loads of things to do because I’m leaving the country first thing in the morning tomorrow.”

They all smiled and nodded. They left the conference room while I was left because I had already picked up my laptop and other papers.

Yes, I may be heartless sometimes but I have a heart on my employees. They were wrong that I am the reason why the company was successful, because without their hard work, the company might get bankrupted and unsuccessful right now.

He’s the reason why I am happy and contented right now, because for me, He was the center of my life. God was the center of my life. I have gone through a lot of pain but I never lose my faith on Him.

There were two types of pain. The pain that hurts you and the pain that changes you.

And I think, in my case, the pain I felt changed me.

Not on my own I sat down in the chair and took his picture out of my bag pocket. I stared at it and smiled bitterly. I don’t know why I’m still keeping his picture for a long time.

I smirked out of nowhere. In no time, I will start my plans. It’s a sin in the eyes of god, but I don’t care anymore. I just want justice for my loved ones.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

“Don’t expect that you’ll just be happy for the rest of your life, Ivan. I gave you five years and I think that’s enough for the pleasure you’re seeking that I’m not in your life. I’ll make sure your life will be miserable, you who killed my loved ones. I only gave you a moment of pleasure, and when I return to the Philippines, I will make sure that you lose everything. That your world will collapse. I’ll make sure of that. .. “I smiled and whispered to myself as I stared at his face in the photo.

Ivan’s POV

‘the Steinfields Clothing Company has called, Sir. Their CEO was coming tomorrow morning and they’re expecting that the De Leon Corporation’s proposal was ready …” my secretary, Roselynn said.

I stopped signing papers because of my interest in what I heard. I thought SCC don’t accept business proposals from the Philippines? But why did they agree immediately and they will still come here to my company. That’s kinda surprising because I only tried if they would allow it. My company badly need a big time company right now.

I looked up at my secretary. ‘tomorrow?” wrinkled when I asked.

“Yes, sir.” he nodded.

“But the company’s Christmas Party was tomorrow. How can we handle that at the same time?” my eyebrows almost meet. I am stuck on two important things. It seems like just then.

I sighed. The eight years of my fucking life was absolutely hell. I lost her. I lost my everything.

She cleared her throat. “We can reschedule the event if you want, Sir.” aniya.

“We can’t do that …” I promised shaking. The employees were excited for tomorrow and I can see it. I don’t want to disappoint them.

But, hell! I don’t want to disappoint the CEO of SCC too! Damn it!

“Why don’t we invite her, Sir?” Roselynn asked so I immediately turned to her.

“Her?” I wondered.

He nodded. ‘the CEO of SCC. Andrea Steinfields.”

So, she’s a girl, huh? Impressive. A girl like her manage hundreds of company over the world and that’s all successful. I’m excited to meet her.

“Uhh, sir? Why were you smiling?” Roselynn asked so the smile was immediately erased from my lips.

I cleared my throat. “Yeah. Let’s invite her to say thank you for visiting us here and the day after the event we’ll be present. The Christmas Party was even more important.” I barely smiled.

He nodded. “Okay, Sir. I’ll tell them and I’ll send them an invitation as well.”

I just nodded and went back to signing. Roselynn came out of my office.

I accidentally saw her picture so I stopped signing and took the picture frame. I stared at it and I smiled sparingly because I knew he was having so much fun in the picture. I never saw her that happy with me. I did nothing but to hurt her when she’s with me.

“When will the time come when I can’t see you in the picture?” I said in a whisper and I laughed a little because I was only talking about his picture. I am damn insane.

“I missed you so much. Come back, please. I’ve been missing you for years and every day I know you’re not by my side it’s like I’m being killed …” I caressed his face in the photo. She’s absolutely beautiful.

“I love you so much. So much …” I said then kissed her picture.

Andrea’s POV

“Why didn’t you tell me you were going home to the Philippines?” Roxanne asked me annoyed as she helped me pack clothes here in my bedroom.

I smiled. “Because I know you’re coming and there’s no one to take care of the kids. Take care of Darlyn and my kids here. It looks like it’ll be a long time before we get back.” I said and closed my suitcase.

He looked at me meaningfully so I just smiled at him. I know he already knows my purpose in the Philippines. Not the DLC proposal, if not other things.

“If you want us to talk, please lock the door. Maybe someone will hear.” I said without looking at him. I am arranging the papers that I will take to the Philippines.

I heard the door click so I sat on my bed and tapped my side to invite him to sit down. I put the envelopes on the bed first and raised an eyebrow at him.

“were you really sure what you’re going to do, best? You might get hurt. You and Darlyn …” he promised seriously.
