You Are Still My Wife!

Chapter 14: Few Months Later

Frieze and Idri were compiling all their pictures into different albums. The wedding album had all the wedding pictures including the preparation times, the honeymoon album had all the honeymoon picture including a few intimate ones that they were sure to hide it from the world and show only the decent kind. There was a seperate album, almost empty that was labelled as 'being married' where they decided to add all the memories they had so far and would eventually have in the future. If at all the album gets filled, they would create a part two version of the same. Their married life was going smooth until the day when Idri met Mr. Kane's daughter.

Mr. Kane had been working with Idri and his father, David from years. It has been his seventeenth year at his service to this family. All the important business information would go through him upon Simon and Idri's approval. The shopping center was built right next to a public park. The land was owned by a small family who ran a garage for years in that area. The family was poor. When Simon and Idri offered them a handsome settlement opportunity on the countryside with a house of their own and a million dollar for a living. This would make them a life and hence, the agreement was quick. Mr. Kane helped process all the legal and financial procedure for this project once everything was settled. The construction is already half way and the building should be ready by next year.

Idri and Frieze has been married since six months now. He wanted to show the site to her and tell her about the project. She has been working as an HR recruiter in ABX Corporations that deals with automobile industry. The company has been doing well with foreign investors and they have several branches across the globe. The global status of the company had mainly come in with the human resources that they have in the company. The CEO is proud of his employees and he takes pride in the accomplishments that his employees make.

It was not easy for her to get through but she had tried several times. Finally, in her third attempt in her third month of arrival to Kay City that she finally got a job in the HR department. She is happy with her new job and aspires to climb higher in this company. She is already being doing great in getting the

best resources so far with her ability to analyse candidates and their abilities. Since she was an experienced HR already, she managed to join the senior employees team right from the beginning. Idri requested her to join his company even before signing the offer letter, but she refused. Maybe eventually she would join as she acquires more experience.

She loves her job but weekdays due to the nine hour shift, she could hardly meet Idri during lunch period. Weekdays is the only time that they manage to break free from office work and spend the daytime together. Just as they reached the site, Frieze was explained everything on the way. Mr. Kane greeted her politely and showed her around. Idri followed silently listening to him keenly and added additional details for Frieze whenever required. As they were done with the explanation, a girl in a pink dress entered and hugged Mr. Kane.

Idri was quick to recognise her and his head was in turmoil when he heard her call Mr. Kane "Daddy".

She was none other than Dori. Did she go under the knife to cut a few extra fat off her face. She looks more beautiful now and more slim.

Dori quickly rushed to Idri and hugged him before he could even react. Frieze looked at Idri for an explanation. Mr. Kane walked forward and spoke "Dori, my dear daughter, your ex-boyfriend is married now and his beautiful wife is right here. You should stop being this close and be more respectful."

He turned to Frieze to apologise who did not look so happy as Dori continued to hold her husband and not releasing him.

Frieze spoke "I think we should be going now. Nice to meet you Dori. Let's go Idri." Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Idri released her hands off him by a jerk and nodded good bye to Kane. They both left. Mr. Kane and Dori started talking about the project details. Frieze on the other hand felt sad. Idri could already notice.

"Hey, I am sorry. I had no idea that Dori is his daughter. She never mentioned and he never did too."

"It is ok. I am not accusing you of anything. I just hated the sight of Dori touching you and you did not protest."

"I was too shocked at the moment."

She continued to walk to the car without paying a heed to whatever he said. He quickly grabbed her by her arm. He kissed her until she felt good and hugged him back. She was no more upset but reminded him to stay away from her as she did not like her getting so close to her husband. She would not even know how to fight for her man and prefer to just sit in some corner hurt. Idri drove her to her favorite restaurant that served the tastiest Chinese cuisine. As she was upset, she got into the tendency to eat more. Food is something that changes her mood to a happy one. Even Idri could never make her this joyful as he has seen her when she sees yummy food in front of her. They chatted all the time as she started talking about her ideas for the shopping center while Idri listened to her intently improvising few of her ideas. They would be busy listing down all the plans over the next six months where they finally plan to inaugurate the mall. He has been already planning for the legal proceedings with Simon. Since Simon has a share too in the land, a part of the profit or revenue will also land in for Teresa.
