He Only Married Me For Revenge

Chapter 2: His cold voice

Madi's POV:

Answering some phone calls and checking his new schedules, almost occupied half of my day.

I didn't notice how the time passed and it's already our lunchtime.

Sandy appeared in my office door wearing her hungry smile.

"What's up? Work over food?"

I smiled. "Fine. I didn't notice the time."

"Hmp! That's your dialogue every day," she said rolling her eyes.

"Really? I didn't know that." I said smiling widely while cleaning my table.

I just get my phone and my purse before we walked to the elevator down to the cafeteria of the building.

"You know what, I have a wonderful story."

I glanced at her while entering the busiest side of the building at this hour.

"And what is it?"

"About our boss." she covered her mouth on the other side so no one can hear her voice except us. And it gets me intrigued. I arched my eyebrow.

"That's gossiping!" I told her even though it really intrigued me to the bones.

"His cold behavior has a story." she continued whispering.

"What story?"

"I heard, he was betrayed by his ex. The one that he loved but also the one who got away. She left him."

I don't know but hearing him already loved someone gives my heart a slight pinch. But I just ignored it and open my ears to the additional information from her.

"How did you get that?" I asked her all ears.

"I just heard it when I went to finance department earlier. And you know what, after of that incident, that's when he accepted the position from his father to become the CEO of WEC."

I turned to her, trying to gather more of her story.

"Plus... they said, after his ex betrayed him with another man, he became cold and heartless."

"Hey! You heard it from someone who's talking behind his back?" I eyed her.

"Yes, but I didn't mean to. They were already talking when I walked past them. And don't tell me you're not interested, because everyone in this building loves to gossip about his life."

"I'm not interested." I lied. "I'm just intrigued."

She chuckled behind me as I walked inside to where the line's starts.

"Girl, that's the same. It's a synonym of interested."

So, he was betrayed? I am wondering if his behavior that he's showing us today is different from his personality before he's been cheated by his ex. Wait? What kind of ex? Ex-girlfriend or ex-wife?

"Ex-fiancee." I was shocked and my head immediately snapped at Sandy's direction.

"You heard it?" I asked my eyes widened. I'm just asking it to myself.

She chuckled again. "Of course, silly! Your thinking so loud!"

"Ohh.." that's all I've said and I bite my bottom lip due to the slight embarrassment. I hope no one heard me talking to myself except her.

"So... that's what you're calling 'not interested', huh?"

She's smirking but I rolled my eyes.

"Hi, Madi."
