Mr. Chairman’s Devious Wife by Brey Mitchylle

Betrayal and Heartbreak
Sofia’s heart raced like a wild horse, pounding against her chest as if trying to
escape its bony cage. The closet felt small around her and she quickly closed her
eyes.
Sofia’s trembling hands clutched her phone. The video was on, recording
whatever it was that was happening outside of the closet.
“I told you not to drink,” Charlotte's voice, usually warm and comforting, cut
through the stifling silence, a mixture of disappointment and concern lacing her
words.
“What are you so angry about? Didn't I just come back to the hotel with you?”
Daniel's voice followed. His words echoed like distant thunder, each syllable
crashing against her senses. In an attempt to stifle a gasp, she covered her
mouth with trembling hands, her fingers barely managing to muffle the sound of
her disbelief.
From the small gap in the closet, she could see Charlotte who was trying to
remove her clothes.
“Let me help you,” Daniel quickly helped her pull the zipper down before he
moved her long blond hair to the side and kissed her neck while hugging her
from behind.
Sofia was certain she heard her heartbreak. A searing pain gripped her chest,
squeezing her heart. This was not a show. This was real. Mr. Beaumont wasn't
lying.
“Shall we bathe together?” Daniel asked.
“You smell bad...” Charlotte said she pouted as she batted her beautiful eyes. “I
told you not to drink. You know how I dislike that smell. Aw!” Charlotte suddenly
screamed when Daniel poked her side. “What— Hey— stop— stop tickling— I
am still on my heels! Ah!”
Out of nowhere, Daniel carried Charlotte into his arms and placed her on the
bed. Using his elbow to support his weight, he lay on top of her.
“Do you still dislike how I smell?” he smirked. Sofia could hear that sweetness in
his voice. She closed her eyes in an attempt to block out the rest, but it was
useless.
“Hmph! Stop acting cute. You're not.”
“Really?”
“Really!” Charlotte pouted as she batted her beautiful blue eyes. “And you lied to
me. You said we would stay here for a week.”
“The meeting is only for three days, Sofia would know.”
“You already spend most of your time with her at home. What's wrong with
spending a few days with me? Aren't you leaving her soon?”
Sofia almost dropped her phone when she heard Charlotte's words. W— What is
she talking about? The raw and visceral pain that threatened to consume her
seemed to stop.
It was as if a cold bucket of water was poured into her soul.
What was Charlotte talking about?
At one point, she was tempted to barge into their bedroom and confront them.
However, she could not do it now. No. She would not do something that might put
her in jail.
She gritted her teeth as she forced herself to listen.
“She's to turn 26 very soon,” Daniel chuckled. “You know I cannot leave without
you, right?” He started kissing her neck as his other hand started moving on her
body, caressing, pinching, stroking.
“She has yet to promise you that she would give you her shares even if you have
yet to marry. How confident are you that she would hand you the shares without
conditions attached?” Charlotte asked.
“Can we stop talking about something irrelevant?” Again, he peppered Charlotte
with kisses, causing the latter to giggle.
“I am getting impatient, Daniel. I have been waiting for two years.”
Two years?
Sofia could no longer stop the tears that welled in her eyes. Two years? Daniel
and Charlotte had been sleeping for two years? The truth of their betrayal
unfurled inside her like a black banner.
Sofia grabbed her chest. It felt as If a dagger was in her heart, a blunt dagger
that was slowly turning, slowly destroying her from the inside.
“Her birthday’s in a month, babe,” Daniel reminded Charlotte.
“I know... I just...” Before she could finish her words, Daniel suddenly showed
her a velvet box.
“ou—*
Then, Daniel helped her sit down on the bed.
“Aring? You—
“Will you marry me?” Daniel asked. “Of course, after I get the shares.”
For a few minutes, Charlotte stared at the ring, her mouth agape. Then tears
welled up in her eyes. Without saying a word, she hugged Daniel and pushed
him down the bed.
The next thing that Sofia saw was something that she found very hard to
process.

Soon, she felt like a fog had
descended in her head. She could no
longer remember how she left the
room. The next thing she knew, she
was already outside of the door. She
quickly ran into her own room. The
moment she closed her door, the
storm within her broke into stifled
sobs. The content is on

Betrayal, heartbreak, and the overwhelming sense of loss clung to her as she sat
on the carpeted floor, crying.
The next day arrived with the persistence of the sun as its rays sliced through the
room. Sofia stirred on the bed, her eyelids heavy. The memory of the previous
night's torment immediately filled her head.
“Awake?” a deep voice interrupted her hazy thoughts. She jolted up, her face
pale as she looked around and found a familiar man sitting next to her bed.
Alexander Beaumont.
He was wearing a black suit, and his hair brushed up, showing his sharp and
intimidating features. For a while, his steady dark brown eyes met her green
eyes.
She frowned.
“Why are you here?” She struggled to move, her head throbbed, and her arms
felt weak.
Damn Hangover, she thought inwardly.

It took her a while to realize that she
was wearing her underwear. She had
spent the whole night drinking and
crying. In the end, she fell asleep
while thinking about taking a shower.
She quickly pulled the sheets up to
cover her body. The content is on

“Business,” he answered, his gaze serious. “Shall we talk?”
