193 Three Days Left 3

"I forced myself onto her."

"WHAT?! You raped your wife?!" Edward exclaimed and stood up because of the shock he felt.

"Not that kind of force! I kissed her in a very harsh way that she had to fight back and walked out of the room." Vince explained elaborately.

"Why did you do that?"

"Jealousy. I was jealous." Vince admitted.

"JEALOUS?!"

"I know it may sound stupid but the past few days she has been secretive. I don't like it."

"This is not the first time that she was secretive. When you were still trying to win her back, she was quiet almost all the time."

"I know but this time it's different. Haru called her late last night and the moment I told her the information this morning, she sent text messages to her."

"In other words you got jealous with the closeness between your friend and fiance?"

"Don't you dare make fun of me. Haru is Yve's idol. Of course, you can argue that it's just admiration... But Ugghh!! I don't know anymore."

Edward can now see the point of his cousin. Well if he was in his cousin's position, he might also feel the same. The only difference is that Vince doesn't know the topic and it's driving him crazier. If only he can reveal the plan to his cousin.

"Okay, I understand. I will cancel all the executive meeting with other leaders. I will deal with the rest." Edward said before leaving his cousin inside the room.

He can't do anything about it except inform Yve and leave the patching up to her.

Yve received Edward's message a bit since she was in a meeting. Upon reading the contents, she sighed and smiled at her jealous husband. As the old problem was resolved, she has a different one in her hand..

'How will I be able to make it up to him without revealing the surprise wedding?'

She has been cracking her head but still nothing comes up. But then, Sylvan knocked on the door and came in.

"What is it, Sylvan?"

"Miss, if you don't have any plans, can we come back to the hotel a little earlier?" Sylvan requested.

"Why is that?" Yve got a bit irritated as she still hasn't figured out how to please Vince.

"Madam Maddie told us to come to the head office for a suit and dress fitting."

"Hmm... I see. Then I will come with you. I need to speak to Maddie."

"Yes, Miss." Sylvan was left with no other choice but to agree.

'This will cause another fight if she will not go home early.' Sylvan thought as he closed the door.

Although he's scared at Maddie he has no other choice but to inform the Madam of her son's tantrum. True to his understanding of Maddie's attitude, the woman came and talked to her future daughter-in-law. Yve was dumbfounded by this sudden visit.

"MOM!"

"Yve, I heard from your secretary of the recent feud with my son."

"Mom, I wouldn't call it a feud. It's just a small misunderstanding."

"Hmmm.... Now have you thought on how will you calm his jealous heart?"

"Not yet. I was hoping to ask for your help. Aside from being honest, I don't know what to do. At this juncture, honesty is not an option."

"Invite him out for dinner and make him feel that he's the only one for you." Maddie suggested.

"He's really the only one for me."

"I know but my stupid son is thinking otherwise. The secret planning for your wedding is making him feel insecure. Since he doesn't know that, it's eating him inside." Maddie explained.

"Now that I think about it, I'm partly at fault. Thank you, Maddie." Yve said and dialed Edward's number.

"Edward? What time will Vince finish his schedule?" She asked.

"He has no schedule for today. He's drinking inside the suite since this morning." Edward reported like a child informing his mother of her husband's misconduct.

"WHAT?!" Yve couldn't believe her ears.

It's already late in the afternoon and soon night will officially come. If Vince has been drinking this morning, she can't start to imagine Vince's appearance.

"Mom, I'll be going ahead. Edward said that Vince has been drinking since this morning."

Without waiting for her response, Yve left the office with Chrysthe following closely behind her. Sylvan, on the other hand, decided to drive Maddie to her office where they were told to meet for the suit and dress fitting.

As soon as they arrive, the rest of Team Alpha was there minus Chrysthe are already waiting for them. Maddie doesn't want to waste anyone's time so she started the fitting simultaneously. The men were assisted by the staff while she focused on Eybelle's dress. As each of them tries out the suits, they realized how Maddie made their outfits stylish yet convenient. Inside the fitting room, they tried sparring a bit to check the fit and found it perfect.

'As expected of the fashion Queen. She really knows what her clients' priorities in terms of clothes are.' They all thought in unison.

While the team is busy on their attire for the event, Yve has just arrived at the hotel. She found herself hurrying to their room. As she opened the door, she saw her husband lying on the couch sleeping like a log. On the table, there were empty bottles of whiskey and his glass.

She removed her coat and hanged it on the opposite couch. She walked to the closet to get a t-shirt that Vince might change into. Once she decided on the shirt Vince will wear, she went to the bathroom and got some towels and a basin of water to wipe Vince's face and exposed arms and legs. Vince must have been very drunk that none of her movements woke the man up. When she finished changing his clothes, she decided to prepare a soup for Vince's hang-over as soon as he wakes up.

After cooking, she took a warm bath and changed into her comfortable pajamas. She sat by Vince's side and read the reports she failed to understand later that afternoon. As she finished her works, she turned her head around and whispered to Vince,

"I'm sorry if my actions the past few days made you feel so insecure."

"However, I hope you will trust me on this one."

"You will always be the one for me and nothing or no one will be able to change that."

She kissed Vince on the lips before placing her head on the space beside Vince's body and closed her eyes. As she fell asleep without realizing, the man lying on the couch opened his eyes and smiled at her confession. He kissed her on the lips and apologized to her sleeping face.

Once more, he kissed her on the lips a bit longer this time and carried her to their bed. After placing her comfortably, he gave in to hangover that has been bugging him the moment he woke up. He went to the kitchen and saw the soup. He served himself and enjoyed the hang over soup Yve probably cooked for him.

Once his tummy was full, he washed the dishes before heading to the bed to sleep beside his Queen. As the deepness of the mattress shifted due to his movement, Yve's body subconsciously turned around and hugged his unsettled body. A smile escaped from his face as he carefully finalize his position without waking her up. Unbreaking her embrace, he makes it tighter by hugging her back. Without any official conversation, they resolved their issue and slept the night away warming on each other's body heat.
