Chapter forty-three: His confession

"Baby?"

"Hmm?" I looked at him.

We're already inside of his car when he asked me, maybe he noticed that I became quiet suddenly.

"Are you okay?" he asked with a tenderness on his voice and he held my hand. I smiled as I remember what Belle's said earlier. 

"Yeah. I'm fine. How's your work?" I looked down at our intertwined fingers and my smile widened more.

"Tiring as usual." he shrugged his shoulders and back his eyes on the road.

"I thought you said you had a late meeting with Dani?"

"Yeah, but he cancelled it."

"But why?"

"He didn't give me a reason, he just said it's important."

"More important than business?"

He shrugged his shoulders for an answer. And then I remember about the car.

"Wait, hubby. When did you buy this car?"

He glanced at me and then smiled.

"Two days ago, baby."

"Why?"

He chuckled. "What do you mean why?"
