Chapter 13: The special day
It’s been a week since Xander sent his cousin Dr. Kriza Liviendo to the workplace of Giselle to have a check-up there. And this is the day when Dr. Kriza will report all of her findings to Giselle.
Xander is in his work place as usual, It’s obvious that his second home is his office because he is there for 16 hours. Sitting and just working until the sun goes down. But sometimes he is working outside the office when he is closing a business deal.
” Sir, Here’s your coffee” Rolando said as he slowly and carefully put down the black coffee that his master ordered.
” Did your wife call you already?” Xander bluntly asks while checking the design of the characters of the game on his computer.
” Dr. Kriza?” Rolando ask.
Xander looked at Rolando as he took off his glasses and put it down on his table.
” Kriza is still married to you Rolando. It’s not too late to get her back” Xander meaningfully said. But Rolando just shakes his head as a light smile shows to his lips.
” I’m okay in our position right now. After the annulment, I’m sure she will find a suitable man for her” Rolando simply answered.
” As I always said to you Rolando, The world changes ” Xander just shortly answered as he took a sip of his coffee.
Rolando just put an emotionless face towards his master as he slightly bowed and walked outwards to the office.
Xander just chuckled because of what Rolando just did. Rolando always avoids the topic about his marriage to Dr. Kriza. No one knows why the two got married in the first place except for Xander. It’s just that one day they already got married and Xander supports the marriage. The marriage caused a stir in the Monteverde’s because one of the Monteverde’s got married to a butler.
” XANDER!” A loud bang of the door plus the loud voice of the woman stormed inside the office.
Xander raised his eyebrow while looking at his cousin. Xander glances at the door and the heavy glass door is now broken. It looks like Dr. Kriza is really furiously mad this time.
” What did you just say to Rolando?” Dr. Kriza furiously asks as she walks towards Xander.
” Is he avoiding you again?” Xander bluntly said as he turned his swivel chair and looked at the view outside his office.
“I believe that you were only seeing each other in my company. Specifically, In my office. And I only called you once in a blue moon. And yet you’re blaming me for your husband’s cold feelings towards you?” Xander bluntly said that makes Dr. Kriza quiet because all the things he said are true. His cousin’s office is the only place he can see his husband’s face.
” You marriage wrecker” Dr. Kriza hissed as she clench her fist. She really wants to punch his cousin on his face. She still believes that he is the reason that her marriage is falling apart. But she can’t hastily punch his face for that reason. He is the only who can protect her from her other cousin or should we say to the others Monteverde’s.
” I still hate you”Dr. Kriza only replied as she harshly sighs.
” Thank you ” Xander only said as he turned around to see his cousin’s face and he put his two elbows over the table and put his hand under his chin.
” Now proceed to your report” He authoritatively said that makes Dr. Kriza to be tremulous of him.
Dr. Kriza cleared her throat before she walked towards her cousin and put down all the documents containing the information about Giselle Hidalgo.
” Congratulations! The woman you choose to be the mother of your child. Don’t have any HIV, AIDS or any sexually transmitted disease. ” Dr. Kriza said as she stopped and put down a bind card that looked like a calendar.
” She doesn’t have any genetic disease that can pass through the baby and she doesn’t have any history of mental illness in her family. But I guess the mental illness will come from our family” Dr. Kriza said out of an insult that makes Xander look at her as a sign of warning. Dr. Kriza just gulped as she stood up straight.
” Back to our topic. Overall she is perfectly healthy to bear your child and this is the date where she will become fertile. Just follow this fertile calendar that I made for you. And based on the calendar she will be fertile tomorrow.” The doctor said.
Xander looks at all the health documents that his cousin gave to her. He immediately pressed the intercom to call Rolando.
” Rolando, Send the contract to Giselle immediately. I want the contract will come to her within an hour and Dr. Kriza will go to you to say the reminders that I want Ms. Giselle Hidalgo learned before she signed the contract.” Xander said.
Dr. Kriza roller rolled her because of what her cousin just said on the intercom. He wants him to give the two of them a talk. And Dr. Kriza takes it as an insult. She still believes that her husband and her cousin still had a relationship.
” Xander, Don’t pity me. I know that my husband and you have a relationship. The two of you are betraying me behind closed doors” Dr. Kriza said that makes Xander chuckle.
” Yes, We have a relationship ” Xander mockingly said that makes her face flash in red out of irritation that she is feeling right now.
” How disgusting!”
” Kriza, Kriza…… You should stop imagining things and listening to gossip. If you want to have your husband back, Make a move and not just talk and talk like what you are doing right now” Xander said before he wave his hand as a sign that he wants Dr. Kriza to leave his office.
Dr. Kriza just left dumbfounded because of what her cousin just said. She took a deep breath before she left the room.
When Dr. Kriza finally left the room, Xander glanced at the crack door that her cousin just exited seconds ago. He immediately looked at the card that his cousin gave to him. As he gets a pen and writes a title on the top of the card.
‘ Special days ‘ That is what he wrote on the card.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
” She must conceive within this month” He murmured as he put the card inside the drawer. As soon as he put the card inside a sly smile formed into his lips.
