He pretended to be excited as he carried me to the bed, full of passion as he leaned over me.
In the past, I would have immediately screamed and pushed him away, saying to be careful of the baby.
But this time, I let him have his way with cold eyes. He couldn't keep up the act and stopped moving.
"Um... darling, even though we're past the dangerous first trimester, we should still be careful not to hurt the baby."
I smiled.
"You're right, honey. The baby is the most important thing."
The next day at noon was the celebration banquet for completing a mission in the organization. Every Agent Group member could bring their spouse.
Actually, as a trainer I was invited too, but I didn't tell Damien. I still attended as his wife.
Originally I had planned to surprise him with the news that I became a trainer when I returned from this mission. Now it seemed unnecessary.
As soon as we entered the banquet hall, his team members enthusiastically greeted me one by one.
"Sister-in-law's here! Damien's been a perfect gentleman in the organization, he wouldn't even look twice at another woman!"
"Yeah, he sleeps at the camp every night dreaming about you. He's truly devoted to his wife!""Sister-in-law, I'm so jealous of you! You've got such a wonderful husband in Damien who dotes on you. If I were a woman, I'd want to marry Damien myself!"
These were all my brothers-in-arms, with whom I had trained and carried out missions together. We were as close as family.
In the past, I was used to them joking with me like this, and I could roughhouse with them too.
But now, looking at these still enthusiastic faces, they no longer seemed genuine.
"Darling, come sit down. You love lobster tails, don't you? Don't lift a finger, I'll peel them for you."
"Hey, Meathead, I'm talking to you! Keep your distance from my wife. Don't squish my son with that big ass of yours!"
Everyone watched as Damien put on a show of being the doting husband in front of me, while my heart turned to ice.
The atmosphere was at its liveliest when Damien suddenly received a phone call.
He glanced at me, grabbed his phone, and ran to the side to answer it. He quickly came back.
"Darling, the boss wants to have a word with me. You'll have to excuse me for a bit. Wait for me to come back."I nodded, watching him leave. I checked the surveillance app on my phone and discovered he hadn't gone to the leader's office upstairs at all. Instead, he went to the abandoned cabin at the training grounds, which used to be a rest area but was now a tool shed.
I made an excuse about not feeling well and went for a walk, eyes glued to the surveillance feed on my phone. I watched as he eagerly rushed into the small cabin, immediately pinning a voluptuous figure in a chef's uniform against the table.
"You little temptress, you're so daring! Sneaking onto the base disguised as a chef to seduce me. Let me see just how naughty you can be!"
"I knew you loved the thrill. So, is this exciting enough for you?"
The front courtyard housed the office building and cafeteria. Just on the other side of the wall, in the back courtyard, the two of them were getting hot and heavy, each wave of passion more intense than the last.
I couldn't even imagine such a scene. If anyone walked in on them, it would mean immediate expulsion from the organization.
Standing in the cafeteria's break area, I watched helplessly through the surveillance feed as they went at it for over an hour, tears falling onto my phone screen.
They finished hastily, and Damien quickly ran back to the cafeteria, stopping by the restroom to freshen up before entering."I apologize, darling. The boss had a lot to discuss with me. In the future, I'll take you to fancy restaurants and we'll enjoy our time together, just the two of us!"
I laughed coldly to myself. There is no future. This is the last meal I'll ever have with you.
