The Wife Is A Superstar 6

Chapter 1017 - Fate Or Coincidence?

Lisa was taken aback by his wife's unexpected reaction. Did she not feel the same impression of destiny between the two of them after discovering that they had already met years ago when she was still Maria Vetrova?

He glanced down at the two clear red handprints on his naked chest. The smack didn't really hurt. It just sounded loud because her hands hit his flesh directly. However, his wife hitting his chest and getting mad at him for such an odd reason sent him into confusion. Now he felt a bit uncertain on how to deal with his fuming wife, so he chose to do what he believed to be the safest option whenever she was angry.

"Sorry for being a rude jerk to you that time, Maria. If I only knew back then that you'd eventually become my wife, I would never have dared to be so impolite with you. I would've chased you right there and then and made you my wife sooner."

Jennie tried maintaining her angry glare but her heart was already softening as soon as she saw the redness on her husband's chest where she smacked him. And of course, his sincere words of apology were like a gentle spray of tender feelings that finally extinguished the dying embers of her anger.

The truth of the matter was that she wasn't really mad at his rude behaviour during their surprising encounter years ago. What made her angry was how he deliberately teased her while telling her about the encounter, causing her to misunderstand his attraction to an unknown woman.

An intense feeling of possessiveness for her husband flooded through her, overwhelming her so much that she could barely control her volatile emotions. She even wanted to fight with the unknown woman and pull all her hair out, only to discover that the woman was actually her!

Now she felt a little stupid. How dare he make her jealous of herself?!

Too evil!

She almost dragged her sinful husband to the bed and pushed him down under her in order to punish—ehem ehem—to "demonstrate" to him how he would never find another woman like her in the world. How dare he fancy another woman and talk about his crush to his pregnant wife?

But since he already apologized, she no longer had the heart to stay mad at him especially for such a petty reason as feeling jealous of herself. She sighed and started caressing her husband's chest, feeling a little guilty for hitting him during the heat of the moment.

"It's fine now," she said in a much gentler voice. "No need to apologize for what happened years ago. If you didn't remind me of it, I wouldn't even remember. Besides, we were total strangers back then."

He caught her hand on his chest and lifted it to his lips before turning it over to kiss her soft palm. "Not strangers."

She raised an eyebrow and tilted her head to the side. "What do you mean 'not strangers'? We didn't know each other at all back then so we were complete strangers, Lisa."

"We might not know each other that time, but the fact that we've met before even if it was only for a brief moment proves that we have fate together. That's what I believe. Don't you think so, too?"

Her heart trembled, touched by the conviction in his voice. When he put it that way, she also wanted to believe that maybe the two of them were really fated to be together.

However, there was a skeptical part of her thinking that it might only be a coincidence. Although she thought that this might be the case, she held her tongue and didn't say it out loud especially after looking at her husband's passionate and "enlightened" expression. Sighing, she couldn't help but admit to herself that she was still far from reaching her husband's level of romantic sensibility.

"You said that if you knew back then that I would eventually become your wife, that you'd never have dared to be so rude with me," she said, redirecting the subject away from the talk of fate. "And that you would've chased after me and married me."
