Part 13

When Noah heard about that from Aldrich's mouth, that made him froze for moment, he needed time to react and also- to accept that.

"Noah Matthew." He forced a smile a little as he shook his hand with Aldrich.

"You seem so shock when you found out that she is married. What, didn't you tell him?" Aldrich turned his head to Rose.

Rose looked even more confused than anyone. Seeing a fake smile portrayed at his lips, that was when Rose realized that he is acting to make fun of her in front of Noah.

"What is this now honey? Are you telling me that you don't love me anymore and would to find another man?" Aldrich purposely made a sad face by frowning.

"No. It's not like that-"

"Wife, I know that you are really hate me. But meeting up with another man without me... It's really hurting me so much."

When Noah was about to interrupted the situation that began more tense but Aldrich doesn't seem let him to do it. Rose heart was beating so fast unlike usual, ears turned red and hot as her felt so embarrassed in front of Noah. He looked obviously awkward because of Aldrich said.

"It's not like that-"

BeforeRose could explained anything the elevator has stopped at the 2nd level.

"I don't know what's going on between both of you guys but I swear that I've nothing to do with her. You don't have to worry, after all she's yours. Sorry for being troublemaker between you two," Noah said and stepped out, left the them alone.

"Ha ha ha! That was really funny. Did you see his shocked face just now? His face turned out became blue hahaha. He really thought you- hey!

Before the door get closed, Rose forced the door to open for her out from there and ran away.

"What the heck is wrong with her?" Aldrich asked himself while rolled his eyes, annoyed but the he realized his joke just now was a bit too much. However, he had no intention to apologize to her. Not even a bit.
