Once a Wife [English Version]

Chapter 33

"TRISTAN, will you bring Maricar to the annual ball?" Allie asked as she handed him the invitation, "This coming Saturday at Sofitel,"

He nodded, "Yeah, she agreed to come. We'll be there," He smiled widely at her.

"I'm really glad that you both talked things out. You looked well, now." She added and tapped his shoulder before leaving.

He's glad either. Thank God that it went that way because he didn't also know what he would do if she decided to break up with him.

He excitedly went to the Wizards after his work yet Maricar wasn't around. Tania said she has a coffee meeting with some clients for catering services.

"What time would she be back?" She asked Tania yet she's also uncertain, "Okay, thank you..."

This is unusual. Maricar always informs him about her plans and she already updates him now again.

So, what went wrong?

Anyway, he thought of something that would surprise her.

"What kind of gown are you looking for your wife?" The sales lady asked, "Does she like reserved or liberated?"

He sighed, "How about both? Reserved but sophisticated and I prefer color red,"

"We might have the best dress for that description," She said as she excused herself and got back minutes later with a beautiful long red gown.

"This is a wine red lace-up rhinestone maxi dress that is shaped from dreamy chiffon that sweeps over the lightly padded princess seamed bodice and plunging neckline with a mesh insert," The sales lady explained to him in which he didn't understand but he could already see Maricar wearing this dress.

"A rhinestone-encrusted waist tops a cascading maxi skirt with side slit. The spaghetti straps meet at a clasp at back to shape a T-back before leading into a sultry lace-up detail. It has a hidden side zipper," She added.

"I'll take it" He smiled and handed his card, "Thank you,"

He was heading towards the parking lot when he saw the familiar figure he would never forget. So, she's really busy with her coffee meeting.

He grabbed his phone and sent her a message.

Him:
Hi busy woman :)

He saw her grabbed the phone and typed back.

Wifey:
I can't wait for this to finish. I hate lunch meetings.

His brows furrowed with her response that's why he decided to call her, "Let's have lunch, maybe you will love it?"

"We're having lunch now," We? She's just alone right now, "Can I just call you later?" she sounds agitated.

"Sure--" yet she immediately dropped the call and he was about to walk towards her when he saw Dominic coming.

They're seeing each other? Since when? A lot of thoughts coming on his mind as he finds himself following them.

Okay, think rationally. This is a public place, they're facing each other and not sitting beside each other. Maybe they are just talking about their kids.

Yeah, that's it. Maricar won't leave him. She doesn't love that man anymore.

He sighed and composed himself with that thought. He won't let his emotion take over him now so he grabbed his phone and just sent her a message.

Him:
Take care, Baby. I love you so much...

He headed towards home and saw their children hanging around.
