Anika woke up from her nap. She looked around the room and saw that she was in a bed. Where was she?

She could only vaguely remember that after Leon and she did the deed, he took her to a room and came in contact with a soft bed. This pulled her immediately to sleep.

She scanned the place carefully. Was she still in the office?

She looked down at her clothes and saw she was wearing a long-sleeved shirt that Leon always wears. She was also clean, with not a trace of the mess they had done earlier.

She spotted her dress carefully hanging at the side and decided to change. After she put on her clothes, she slowly walked out of the room. She opened the door and saw the familiar desk and office.

So, she was still inside Leon's office. But it was empty, and Leon was not around.

She turned to the door and hesitated for a second. She knew she should just stay here, but she wanted to find Leon.

Well, just a peek...

She went to the door to open it slightly. She saw that the tables outside that Leon said were for his secretaries,  were also empty. But not far, behind the glass wall, she can see many employees.

She widened the gap in the door and stepped outside.

"Who are you?" Suddenly, a stern voice made her jump. She turned to see a woman who was formally, but gorgeously dressed.

Red lips, high-heels, perfectly made hair, and on-fleek eyebrows, one was raised strictly and arrogantly.

"Why are you here? Do you know not anyone can enter that office?" The woman reprimanded.

Anika was stumped for words from the imposing aura of the woman. She bit her lips and clasped her hand unconsciously.

"What? Are you mute?" The woman raised a brow.

"I'm asking you! Who let you in?" Her words became even more aggressive that Anika backed away nervously.

"Madame!" A voice rang from the side.

Anika turned to see Leon's secretary. She secretly sighed a breath of relief.

Victoria's brows furrowed when she saw the respectful attitude of the secretary to this woman.

"Mr. Jones, who is this woman?" She asked the secretary with sharp eyes.

The secretary saw it was their important client and was also respectful to her.

"She is the President's wife." Gabriel Jones introduced immediately.

When Victoria heard these words, she froze.

Wife?

So, the rumors were true?

Victoria studied the woman before her. She was wearing a luxury dress, and the ring on her finger was blindingly shiny. Her skin was milky and smooth, like a pampered wife carefully taken care of.

She clenched her fist, but her expression changed.

"So it's Mr. Albrecht's wife. I'm sorry, I mistook you for a random person," Victoria showed a smile. Well, she couldn't be blamed. There was no shortage of women wanting to climb on Leon's bed. But she thinks they were all unworthy.

Even this woman before her.

She approached Anika and stretched out her hand to her.

"I'm Victoria Miller, CEO of Alpha Constructions. I am business partners with your husband." She introduced herself with a lifted chin.
