Chapter 39
-NAOMI
Is the Indy. Noumi McCain, who Circean McCain tied the marriage knot a few weeks ago, cheating on her Husband.
-What do wensen want!
– Naomi McCain and Charles Dickson, allegedly caught on a date in Grenville Harrison’s restaurant. Where the two shared a romantic and well rounded meal and conversation
As my eyes carefully read the brand new published news, spreading all over the internet like a breeze.
I can’t help but feel my entire body feel like I have been lifting weights all my life.
“This is ridiculous” I shake my head and carefully drop the iPad on the closet table to me.
“Ridiculous Circenn looks like he is about to punch anything into a wall
“Charles and I never went on a date. A romantic one at that, and I am not cheating on you!” I scoff. Because the words sound eerie coming out of my mouth.
o who the fuck is the lady in the photo if not you?” Circern asks.
“Yes, that was me. I did go out to grab a meal with Charles but it wasn’t a date. I was just paying him back with dinner because I owe him one! And you shouldn’t even be pissed if I cheated or not!” My voice is stern like his
“I don’t fuckin care if you cheat as long as you’re discreet about it! Do you know how embarrassing this is? How people would look at me, especially my business associates!”
Circenn looks really mad.
I understand where he’s coming from. And the only people I can blame here are the stupid paparazzi that took those pictures of Charles and I
We were discreet about everything, he actually made reservations for all the seats to avoid any prying eyes.
And yet our photos were still taken.
“I know this looks bad, but I swear Charles and I are nothing!” I shake
Circenn takes a step closer to me, His height towering me instantly.
my bead
Tell that to the rest of the world! Do you think anybody’s going to take your word about nothing happening!”
He pause and then continues.
“When I fixed a ring on y your finger, you could have ignored every other thing in your life to realize that your life doesn’t solely belong to you now.
Anywhere you go, the way you eat. There are some people out there that would still want to pry, Because you’re Circenn McCain’s wife. So who in their right minds would believe you were not on a date with Charles Dickson. And for fucksake Naomi, you had to ignore every other man in the city just to go on a date with that dick! Do you know how pathetic that news would make me feel?”
I don’t my a
by a word and just stare at him.
I don’t know what to say or do actually. I don’t know how this world works. This world of being married to a billionaire and being under watchful
eyes.
It’s exhausting and there are too many complications.
“Charles Dickson isn’t the bad person here” I find myself saying
Circenn laughs, one of his many bitter laughs
“Don’t dare to take his side when you barely even know him. I’m pretty sure the only reason he approached you is because he learned that you’re my wife. I don’t know how he did it, but stay away from him.”
“But I
“Naoms are you fuckin serious?”
Carcena interrupts me.

“Look, I don’t know what to do I say, honestly.
“Well you’ve already done a great deal of damage. So the best you can do now is to do nothing. And maybe try to avoid going anywhere until I say
so!”
“What? This is like paiting me on house arrest, I have a company where I work. I can’t stay home until you tell me to move” I scoff
Ciren graba his phone and starts to aggressively type something.
“And What the fuck do you need to work for? Money? Or the fact that you somehow love your fuckin job!” He looks at me and holds my gaze.
“I have all the money that can buy that fancy building you work for. So stay home! Until 1 fuckin. Tell you to!” He growls.
I am a bit frightened by his rage but I don’t show it
He taps has phone one last time before tossing it on the couch.
And slowly, he turns to me.
“Are we clear on that?”
I don’t reply and it makes him raise his eyebrows fiercely,
“Naomi. Are we clear?” His voice is deep, threatening and compelling in some way,
I gulp.
“Sure
He starts seething.
“I do not need your sure! I seed you to assure me that you’ll work with me here, you’ll say in until I say so and no more meetings with Charles
Dickson!”
The moment the words leave
Circena’s mouth.
Elena rushes up to me with my ringing phone in her hand.
“Miss, your phone has been ringing for a while now.” She looks scared.
I take the phone from her hand and the name on the screen makes me freeze.
Charled!
Green catches my expression and sighs
“Charles?” He asks
I nod gently
“Take it. He orders.
I answer the call and place the phone on my ear.
“Charles?” I call softly
“Oh thank goodness. I thought something must have happened to you, I’ve been calling for ages now” He sounds breathless.
“I’m okay” I say and glance at Circenn who is boring his grim eyes into my soul. His arms are folded against each other over his chest in a shielded manner and I try my best not to waver
“I woke up to see the news about us and our dinner last night. I am so sorry things got out of hand like this. This isn’t what I imagined at all. I’ll take responsibility for it all. I promise” His voice is sheer and genuine
“Okay.“I mumble quietly.
“Are you okay?” His voice states. “You’re being awfully quiet. Are you alone right now?”
1 glance at Circemn.
Tm–Lam with my husband“.
The word makes Circenn shifts.

Chapter 19
Charles sighs on the other end of the line.
“Oh right, I didn’t realize how much damage this could cause. I was so stupid for inviting a married woman out for a meal.”“
“No, it’s not your fault at all-
“Don’t fuck with me Naomi. It’s all his fault.” Circent interrupts sternly. “Now tell him to get off the damn line and do not reach out to him again.
My words catch up in my throat and I gulp, it makes me start to cough.
Charles mumbles at the other end of the line.
I’m pretty sure he heard all Circenn said.
“I’m really sorry this happened to us” Charles sighs. “I’ll fix it”
“Okay then”
I put an end to the call
you have to do is sit quietly until the day we take the boys out to the water park. I’ll handle this.”
And with that Circenn walks away.
I plop down on the couch with my entire body feeling like crap.
I hate that this is happening
I grab my phone and as I hop into the internet browser, the first thing I am seeing is a picture of me from my wedding with Circenn, and another picture with Me and Charles from our date:
My heart skips a beat and a feeling of guilt rushes through me
I really hate this.
As I scroll through the news.
The first comment under the article almost t

the phone out of my hand
“Circenn McCain might be a Trillionaire, but I guess his money is not enough to save any of his marriages. Kimberly left, and this Naomi already has eyes for the man who almost wrecked him”
Goodness.
What have I done?
