10. A Clumsy Paid Wife

"Nothing, you don't think like that. Now go home. I'll call you when I'm free." Darren busied himself by starting to check some incoming emails on his laptop. Britney who felt neglected immediately took her bag on the sofa and left the room by slamming the door.

Darren closed his eyes and sighed. He tried to forget Britney because she had betrayed and married someone else. However, forgetting someone who was loved for a long time is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand. Because his concentration was broken and he couldn't focus on work, Darren chose to open the CCTV video again on his laptop. He looked for where she was. In the living room, in the bedroom, in the garden, on the terrace, in the kitchen, he couldn't find her anywhere. Darren started to get angry and think about all kinds of things.

"HERA, WHERE IS THAT WOMAN?" Darren called Hera who was his messenger to serve Calista 24 hours.

"Lady was going to sleep in her room, she said," Hera replied nervously. She had never heard her young master be this angry, even when his love was broken by a woman named Britney, all the young master did was get drunk and go home at night and sleep. The next day it was as if nothing had happened.

"She's not in the room. Hurry up and find her!" Darren orders then hang up. Darren clenched his fists tightly.

Hera knocked on the door of her mistress's room but there was no reply from inside. She turned the door handle and found it was not locked. Hera entered the room and called her mistress many times.

"Madam… madam… where are you?" Hera looked to the balcony, to the changing room there was nowhere. Suddenly her mind was not good and she then opened the bathroom. Hera's eyes widened in shock. She shouted for the madam who was lying on the bathroom floor completely naked. Looks like she slipped and fell because he slipped on the soap foam. Hera opened the bedroom door and shouted for the maids. Darren saw Hera on the CCTV screen running out in a panic. He was confused about what happened. In addition, there were many female maids running into her room. Darren covered his mouth with one hand in extreme anxiety. What was going on there, he thought.

Suddenly he saw one of his maids carrying someone out of the bathroom. Darren's eyes widened when he saw what they carried was his paid wife. Darren called Hera who didn't carry Calista's body.

"What is it? What is wrong with her?" Darren shouted even before Hera said hello.

"Madam fell in the bathroom, sir. She fainted. We will take her to the hospital now. Sorry I was in a hurry." Hera hung up the phone and ran down the stairs to call the driver. In an instant, Calista was taken to the hospital with Hera and another maid.

Darren paced around his desk. UNLUCKY! It's only been a day of being married. Huh, is she a clumsy girl? Even in the bathroom, she can fall, Darren muttered.

Luckily there were no serious injuries. Calista only suffered a slight bone shear in her elbow. According to Calista's confession after awakening from her stupor, she fell with her arms supporting her body, so it didn't hit her head directly. As a result, Calista's hand had to be in a cast. Hera reported the results to Darren who was still worried about his mercenary wife who turned out to be very careless.

After knowing everything was fine, Darren could breathe a sigh of relief. The meeting that was postponed this morning, he had to deal with this afternoon. This time Darren could put his personal emotions into place. Until late afternoon, he who originally wanted to go to his mother's boutique finally canceled.

"Andrew, what do you think if I have to show him my face now?" Darren's car which was almost approaching the gate was stopped. Last night Darren deliberately came home before midnight. So, his mercenary wife couldn't see his face because she was asleep. But now it's still very late. However, Darren wondered how she was doing now.

"Madam is fine sir. She is resting to recover from her injury." Andrew's words did not answer Darren's question. So Darren squealed in annoyance. Andrew who was sitting in the front passenger seat just smiled bitterly. Should I also be involved in the master's household affairs? Am I not enough as an assistant in the office? Andrew felt compelled to ask his employer for an additional salary. Finally, Darren chose to peek again at his laptop screen. Only CCTV cameras are his best eyes at this time.

He saw Calista was lying on his bed. Suddenly he saw Calista who wanted to drink but couldn't reach her glass. Her body could not move much because of the cast that wrapped around her neck and hands. Finally, Calista seems not to take a drink and chooses to close her eyes. Darren closed his eyes seeing Calista could not do much in bed. Finally, Darren's car came to the gate. Darren entered the house but into the room next to his wife's room who was lying down. Darren planned to come in in the middle of the night only. Now he wanted to clean himself and lie down for a while.

Right at midnight, Darren woke up. He looked at his watch it was 12:10 in the morning. Darren took his nightgown and put it on. He left the room and headed to the next room. The room was not locked. It was supposed to be locked but Darren asked Hera not to lock it tonight. Hera, who was sitting but asleep next to Calista who was sleeping soundly, patted Hera's shoulder to quickly leave the room and return to her room slowly. Hera nodded and left the room very slowly so that Calista wouldn't wake up.

Darren crossed his arms to see the woman lying on the bed with a cast wrapped around her neck and hands. Darren sighed. He saw that the plaster cast on the woman's hand had the inscription: I miss my mother, I miss my father, I miss my brother, miss all friends. Then end with a red heart. It's only been a day since she became someone's wife but she already feels lonely. How about 3 years? Looks like I should give her a job as soon as possible. Because according to her mother, who is a doctor and also a clothing designer, in order for a wife to get pregnant quickly, her mood must be happy, good, and unfettered.

A good mood can quickly get offspring. Of course, accompanied by diligent effort every day. Darren sat on the edge of the bed. Calista's calm and peaceful face is also far from heavy makeup, it is indeed worthy of being a wife. However, unfortunately not worthy of love from Darren. For Darren his love for Brittney is non-negotiable. Even for the sake of Brittney, Darren is willing to not marry even though he has been betrayed. Mami and papa are tired of giving advice to their only child. The only way is to require Darren to marry if he still wants to be president of one of his father's companies or the company will be sold and Darren will become unemployed.
