Chapter 18

I smiled gracefully as I approached them. And greeted them like how a matron of the house should do. In the few days I was here, grandma observed and taught me how I should act and what else, so it's okay for me to have sex with people like them.

"Good evening to you"

I congratulate them. All in all there are six people here exept grandma and auntie Jade. I sat in the empty spot next to Grandma.

"Iha I'd like you to meet Jaquelyn Briones and her granddaughter Micaela"

He pointed to the maglolan on our right. Gosh, I can't figure it out but it seems like he just looks at me like he has anger or envy rather than me. I'm not doing anything to him, so I just smile the kind of smile that says 'stay from me b*tch or you won't like me the best'

"As expected from the daughter-in-law of the Salzar's you're not really less"

Luh criticism, huh, did he think I would fall? Well sorry to say my patience is longer than her fake eyelashes.

"And here we have Devora and the daughter-in-law of the Wong, Zoey"

Oh, it looks like sister girl is of Chinese descent and if that's the case, it's more than likely that we have a similar situation. And looking at the three girls here, she seems to be the only one I can get along with, because she's the only one who seems kind.

"It's nice to meet you iha I hope you girls will be friends just your husband's"

I don't understand, but this sister girl looks like there is something not good between her and her husband, she seems uncomfortable when madam mentions her husband. I don't want to be nosy but I think I am right.

"I hope so..."

"And lastly Georgia and her beautiful granddaughter Vanessa Guillermo she is one of those closest friends of Calvin"

Wait she seems familiar did we work in the same field or something? It's not like this is the first time I've seen her, it's weird, but I think just by her piercing gazes, I can feel that she and Calvin had something, but it looks like she didn't pass to be a daughter-in-law candidate.

"Hi Mrs. Salazar, I'm Vanessa if you want to get to know more about Calvin you can ask me I can help you"

It was confirmed that she had a thing with my husband. Just by the tone of his speech, it's like he's boasting that he knows my wife better than I do. And if you'll ask me, do I feel threatened? No, there's no way I will be threatened by an ex. I will tie all her body hair in a knot. And do I feel inferior? Especially not because we maybe married but still not a couple, it's good to pretend yes but duh maybe it's his ex who will be bothered is she saw how good Cal is in the game of pretentiousness and in teasing most of the time because he's getting into my nerves.

He is growing bolder and bolder when it comes on teasing me so maybe soon enough he will hit on me.

"We'll for now Miss Vanessa I don't think I'll be needing your help Cal and I are open to each other and everything will be fine for us by the use of communication so thanks"

Her face turns pale on what I just thought she was going to beat me? Duh it's just a small pry, I can win hands down with that.

"I agree everything will be fine by the use of proper communication especially in marriage that is essential for couples"

Madam Devora made a meaningful comment that made Vanessa even more embarrassed. I gave her a smirk, this girl thought I was like the girls in the stories where it was easy to be bullied. But that's not trendy for me, it came from experience, so I don't want to be like my mom, so it's better to be the aggressive type so that I don't get ignored.

The unusual socialite talking continues as my husband arrives Grandma motioned me to approach Calvin and take care of course. My husband is tired from work, so I need a sweet and caring wife.

"Welcome home love" I greeted with a smile while hugging him.

I think your Calvin was a bit surprised, fortunately he quickly understood what was happening. I also gave him the signal that please, I don't want to be in this situation anymore so he smirked, others couldn't see it but I saw it, he was starting to hmp again.

"Thanks wife, have you eaten already?"

"Not yet I'm still helping grandma and I was waiting for you, did you eat?" Or do you want me to ask them to prepare it for you?"

"Maybe later, anyways grandma aunties and folks if it's fine with all of you may I take my wife with me? I have something important to discuss with her"

"Sure, Andrea, both of you can go"

I took a glance at Vanessa before Calvin and I went up and she looks so frustrated but I'm sorry I'm the legal wife...
