Chapter 39: Withdraw

Louise was happy that morning that she had only one take on her first line. However, the people started murmuring and looked at her. Bonnie came and showed her the negative comments about her. Some netizens said that she's daydreaming that she's dating Alessandro. If she was, Alessandro should show his face in the media. However, the director was not happy about it, even the staff. She was puzzled. They should congratulate her.

"Louise," Director Channing called as she approached him. She followed him to the corner.

"Yes, Director?"

The Director looked troubled.

"Well, I think it's not good to say this. But, Mr. De Alegre's secretary just called. They will pull out the investment if you are still part of the team."

"W-What?" She frowned.

"His wife is not happy with the sudden news about you and him. Yesterday, Secretary Emerald called and Mr. De Alegre was concerned that he invested in this film and you were part of the film. His wife surely got mad."

"Wife?"

"Yes, Mr. De Alegre is married and with the news all over the internet, I am sure that it'll ruin your reputation and so, we decided to pull you out. We already found a replacement."

"B~~But I did better today."

"It's not about how you did today. It's about the investment that was put by Mr. De Alegre in this film."

"Louise," Nancy called and she approached the director and greeted him.

"We'll be pulling out, Director," Nancy said.

"Good." He waved them off. "Don't waste my time again."

"No," Louise exclaimed that it took everyone's attention. "Why are we pulling out because of that news?"

"Louise," Nancy called grimly. She dragged her hand closely. "The President knew that you were the one who sent it out." She mumbled. "Now, save your face, and let's leave."

Louise suddenly shuddered. No one ever saw the President and from the look of Nancy, she's terrified. She has no choice but to take two bodyguards to cover them in front of the set as the reporters get crazy. Then, Secretary Emerald showed up in the media and told everyone that Alessandro De Alegre never met or never knew who Louise Madison was. Then, everyone started talking that it's edited.

"President De Alegre wasn't happy with the continued use of his name and dragging it for fame. I hope you stop from here before everything goes to the court." He said as he bowed his head. He left the reporters with so many questions.

After the typhoon that came, Keira in a few hours released another news to the media. The showdown of the next Genius Singer. Then, she released another that would trend more than Louise Madison's. She didn't leave the office until nine in the evening. She let her secretary and assistant leave at the right time although her secretary insisted on staying. She needs to think of something to get it off.

She took out her pepper spray when the door opened.

"Love, let's go home." He called.

"Go home without me." She said as she put back the pepper spray.

"You know that I can't." He approached her. "You didn't eat your lunch well and now dinner."

She sighed and took out her files as she put them on her briefcase. She turned off her computer and stood. She slid to her high heels and walked past him. He followed her. When she left her room, different smells of flowers entered her nose as she sneezed. She covered her nose and frowned at the flowers. She felt Alessandro's hand to her waist.

"Are you going to keep your distance from me forever?" He asked seductively. She pushed his hands away as one of their bodyguards opened the elevator door for them. They followed them on the elevator and it reached the parking lot. He followed her to their car and reached her hand but she pulled her hand from him, turned back from him, and faced the window.

"Keira, what do you want me to do?"

"Just how many women are obsessed with you?" She mumbled.

"Hell, I care? All I want is you!"

"Fuck," She mumbled. "I can't say anything about your past or even from three years ago. We aren't together."

"Technically we are together but we are apart. I do it because~~I'm lonely and I am longing for you. I can't find you anywhere… and I never had a relationship with anyone. It's just sex."

"Hmm," She didn't have the energy to argue with him. "You'll sleep in the guest room." She said.

"Well, at least you have to eat dinner." He sighed as he started unbuttoning his shirt, getting frustrated again. "Love, come on. Talk to me. Please stop with the silent threat."

"I'm tired." She mumbled.

"I know. And you shouldn't stay in the office for that long." He reached her hand but she pulled it away.

They soon reached the penthouse and she went directly to the bathroom. Geez, this is the first time that they had a misunderstanding or more like a fight. He has no choice but to use the bathroom in the guest room. After he's done, he puts his pajamas on and goes to the kitchen to prepare something for her. But she's already eating her salad and yogurt. He was about to join her but she took her plate and went to the living room. He sighed and still ate the salad that the maids prepared.

She put her plate on the dish and washed it. He watched her leave the kitchen without saying anything. He sighed and put his plate on the dishes. Letting the maid clean it up. He went to their bedroom and found her watching the news while sitting on the sofa. He approached her, stood behind her, then he hugged her neck.

"Love, I don't think that I will be able to sleep tonight." He mumbled. "Please forgive me."

"There's nothing to forgive. I am not in the mood to be with you now."

"That's harsh." He felt it. The pang of pain on his chest. He's angry toward that woman now. He just wished that he didn't sleep with anyone. But he only did it to practice so he could make her feel better. "Do you resent me for sleeping with others while we are apart?" He mumbled.

"No." She shook her head. "I don't have a memory of being together and I had a relationship with someone while we are apart."

"I never had a relationship with anyone. But I pay tested women to practice… so I could make you happy." He mumbled. "If we get married sooner, I would give my all to you. So, please. Let me sleep here tonight."

"Did you lose your virginity after we were separated?"

"Uh, no. I lost my virginity during junior high in my old school from my ex-girlfriend…"

"Hmm, then you broke up with her?"

"I did. She's sick." He mumbled as he remembered it.

"What do you mean sick?"

"In the head." He leaned his head to hers. "She's obsessed with me and I got suffocated. She always insisted that I was cheating on her and then she became berserk. It's not a good memory and so, I spoke to dad about it and he immediately transferred me out after he spoke to her parents."

"You didn't impregnate her?" She asked again.

"No. I always use condoms and we only did it twice. Also, she's not a virgin anymore when we did it."

"Oh," She said and turned off the television. "Leave. I'm going to sleep." She said coldly.

"Love, please…" He kissed her neck.

"No." She tapped his arm to release her.

"I'll massage you." He suggested.

"No. I want to be alone tonight." She mumbled. He sighed and kissed her temple.

"Alright, good night."

"Don't go out and fuck someone else." She said as she went to the bed.

He left the room, looking dismayed. Damn, he planned to use another position for tonight. But it seemed like it'll have to wait. He had to coax his wife and make sure that Louise Madison's career would be over. However, he doesn't want to ruin the Golden Age.

He went to the guest room and lay down. He looked at his side and it indeed felt empty. He's not used to sleeping alone since he married her. He slipped off from the bed and looked at the time. It's already midnight. Maybe, she's asleep. He went back to their bedroom and slowly opened it. She seemed to be sleeping already.

He gently sneaks in and even tiptoes to be careful. Then, he lay on the small spot behind her. He gently lifted the duvet and slipped in. He then gently put his arms on her and closed his eyes to sleep. He felt comfortable and warm now. She must be too tired that she fell asleep quickly. He just loves her although she's angry at him. Besides, she said that she didn't resent him. He already gave her an hour to be alone and so, he'll have his time to cuddle with her.

"I love you… Keira…" He gently kissed her nape and snuggled to her more as they fell asleep.
