The Playboy's Marriage

Chapter Eight

~I was never a playboy but I was an out and about boy~ Jimmy White

Lopéz POV

I tasted the tea. It was okay,she makes good tea but Isabel will never hear that from me. I don't give out compliments not especially to the woman who unfortunately happens to be my wife! I was rude cause it was needed! I'm clearly attracted to Isabel and it has to stop;I feel like I'm losing a battle and I fucking hate it!

She's not supposed to affect me. She's an insignificant person to me. She has to be..
I shouldn't be attracted.... Isabel might be a beauty but she ain't even close to my type,her personality doesn't and will never align with mine.

She can't stand me. I can't stand her either. I shouldn't be losing to her.

Isabel might be upset I was rude to her....who cares anyway?

I'm hundred percent sure she's doing this intentionally,she wants me in my feelings so she gets to control me!

Now I fucking get it!

My phone ringing tone shook me off my thoughts about Isabel.

"Hello Marquez?".

"How've you been doing? how's Singapore?".

"That's not why you called",I tsk."Isabel is fine don't worry".

"Hope you're taking good care of her, she's your wife now".He said.

I groan loudly for him to hear how frustrating this was,"It's fucking annoying that I've to be reminded".

"I've eyes everywhere,your every move is being watched.....any sign of maltreatment from her,kiss your modeling career goodbye".

I'm being threatened by my own brother!And all because of Isabel?this just makes me hate her more! He literally cares more about her than me.

"Goodfucking bye brother". I hung up angrily.

I should kiss my modeling career goodbye??? to hell with you Marquez!!!

But my brother isn't the one to bluff either,if he told me bluntly that my every move with Isabel is being watched then I've got to be careful. Marquez has my career in his hands and I can't risk it.

Shit am I suppose to act l lovey-dovey with Isabel everywhere???

I quickly made a call to the CEO of the biggest shopping mall in Bali. Time to act like a caring husband...

I went to her room,she was on her phone smiling cheekily and didn't even notice my presence.

She's fucking talking to a guy! Probably her ex! is she cheating???

I knocked on her door loudly,she turned and instantly stopped smiling.

"I'll call you back....thank you for checking up".She ended the call.

Damn her voice was so sweet...

"What do you want?",she was harsh.

"You were so sweet talking to your ex but harsh with me-",

"Don't accuse me! I wasn't talking to Steven,it was your younger brother".

"Pedro?",I frown.

"You've another one?".

"Whatever,get ready...... we're leaving".

"Leaving where?".She stood up.

"Just do as you're told Barbie".

"I'm not leaving until you tell me where we're going!".She snapped.

"Will I kidnap you or something woman?!".I snap back.
