Chapter 67: Impressive husband
By the time Ashley took a shower, Tristan had gotten fresh in another room and started preparing breakfast.
"You know how to cook?" Ashley was amazed when she saw Tristan wearing her apron and preparing a simple breakfast for them.
Tristan turned and smiled, looking at her, listening to her voice before he flipped the omelet into the pan.
"There is nothing your husband can’t do" turning off the stove, he put the omelet on the plate before placing it on the dining table.
Impressed by his cooking skills, Ashley couldn’t wait to taste it. She quickly pulled a chair for herself and settled down.
"Here, drink some chamomile tea. It will help reduce the cramp" placing the cup next to her plate, Tristan joined her.
Ashley stared at Tristan with amazement. This man was so perfect that she couldn’t help but admire him. Not only did he prepare breakfast for them, but he also paid attention to what she would have.
It was just a simple breakfast, but still, Ashley couldn’t stop herself from praising him.
"Thanks for breakfast. I liked it," Ashley said, sipping her tea.
"You will have to keep thanking me henceforth wifey because your husband he going to spoil you by cooking various delicacies" Tristan had already thought about it and was willing to cook for her.
He came to find out about her eating problems from Miley and how she would only survive on coffee if the shoot longed for the entire day.
"Is that so?" she asked, lifting her brows.
"Yes, and let me warn you first. I won’t be responsible if you gain weight," Tristan said beforehand because he was great at cooking since he worked in a restaurant when he studied abroad.
Though no one knew who he was, Tristan came to live a simple life away from controversies and the paparazzi. Sometimes he still missed that life.
Nevertheless, he still was grateful that he came here and found Ashley, or else he would have been the same workaholic boss with not so much excitement.
Clearing the table, Tristan washed the plates before placing them back in the cabinet and joined Ashley on the couch.
"What would you like to watch?" she asked, moving closer to him.
"You," he said, kissing her cheeks.
"Eww.. stop being cheesy, Tristan. Come on. I am serious" Ashley felt like she had been overeating cheese lately because her husband was too cheesy with his words.
"Anything will do," he said, pulling her closer and making her sit between his legs before wrapping his arms around her waist.
Turning on her favorite cartoon channel, Ashley began to enjoy it. She wasn’t fond of other media as she preferred watching anime that soothed her stressed life.
As the couple was busy enjoying their alone time, Tristan’s phone began to ring.
"Let me see who is it," he said and climbed down the couch before he went to receive the call.
"What is it, Karl?" Tristan asked, walking out on the balcony when he saw it was Karl who called him.
"You need to come, boss. There is an emergency" Karl wasn’t someone who could handle the work in Tristan’s absence. He was just as bright as Tristan, but sometimes it was only his boss who could find solutions.
Tristan listened to him attentively and ended the call before heading back to the living area where Ashley was waiting for him.
"I think I’ll have to leave. There is an emergency in the office," Tristan said with a displeased face and bent down, pecking her lips.
Being the CEO, he had a lot of responsibility, and Ashley knew he couldn’t just neglect it.
It wasn’t even an hour since Tristan left, and she had already started missing him.
Ashley was so used to his presence that she doubted how fast she fell for him. He was irresistible, and even now, he wasn’t there with her; she still felt his scent all over her body.
’Ashley, you are doomed,’ her subconscious mind said, and she pulled out from the trance.
Slapping her head lightly, she smiled and resumed watching the cartoon.

Jane’s Apartment
Greg was sitting on the couch, but his mind kept rewinding the sight he saw." Who was that man?" he kept thinking, trying to figure out where he had seen him.
Greg had failed to see his face, but his masculine frame which he saw made him ponder on his thought to remember the man.
"I am not going to let Ashley snatch everything away from me" Jane dashed inside the room and threw her handbag on the couch angrily.
Ever since Jane had replaced her with Ashley, everyone had been looking down on her. Even her agency started prioritizing Ashley, leaving her as the second option.
Greg looked at her, bashing Ashley shook his head, and asked," What did she do now?"
"Tell me one thing, Greg. What do I lack? I am beautiful, smart, and just as famous as Ashley, then why it is her that everyone prioritizes?"
Jane and Ashley were equally famous, but Ashley would always lead ahead even after being on the same page. Jane did everything to defame Ashley, but still, she would come out clean. Why.. why did she have to be perfect?
Greg had no answer to her question because he knew Ashley was the best in every way. Even when he was dating her, she would be sweet with him showing her true nature that overshadowed her media image.
Taking a deep breath, Greg walked toward her and sat." You know no one can compete with you, Jane. You are the best," he said as he tried to calm her.
Jane was straightforward to please, and it wouldn’t take time for him to cool her anger. She was so stupid that she believed in Greg’s fake love.
"Really," she asked, looking at him in eagerness.
"Yes, you are the best, and you know how to bring yourself back to the rise again, right" Greg was sugarcoating his words so that she would keep her anger aside.
He felt like he had been coaxing a spoiled brat because sometimes it was hard for him to control Jane’s anger. After he started dating her, he realized how self-centered the woman was, and now he regretted having an affair with her.
Jane hugged Greg and heaved a sigh," Only you know my value, Greg. It’s only you who knows my worth. I don’t want anything else unless I have you by my side," she said, hiding her face in his neck.
Greg held her, but his mind couldn’t accept her words. He wasn’t in love with her but only there for sexual pleasure. She was his bed warmer, and even after spending so much time with her, he still could find himself loving her.
*****
Tristan reached the office and headed towards his cabin.
Karl was already waiting for Tristan, and when he saw him enter, he stood up and walked ahead to inform him about the meeting.
"Didn’t we already reject the proposal, then why are they still pestering us" Tristan was very attentive to the work he picked, and once he wasn’t satisfied with the presentation, he wouldn’t look another glance at it.
"I don’t know, boss. They are saying it will benefit us in the future," Karl informed the client.
Tristan looked at the file and reread it when a particular name caught his attention.
His eyes instantly turned dark, and he looked at Karl," Tell them I’m ready to meet them."
Getting Tristan’s order, Karl immediately acted and headed out to inform the clients about the meeting.
"So now you will follow me everywhere," Tristan said with no emotion in his voice and made a call to Noah.
****
Inside his bedroom, Noah was going through the latest game he was about to launch soon when his phone buzzed.
"So now you remembered me," Noah complained to Tristan for ignoring his call the entire morning.
After Tristan abruptly ended the call, he thought he would call him in the morning, but when he did that, his call went to a voice message, which irked him a lot.
"I want to meet you, Noah, it’s urgent" Tristan’s cold voice made him sit straight, and his expression changed the next moment," What happened," he asked, and Tristan told him everything.
"I will there in ten," he said and ended the call before he got changed and reached Melanin.
Noah fell into deep thought inside Tristan’s cabin," Why is he so adamant."
"I don’t know, but him stepping his foot in this country can cause many problems to us" Tristan had a severe face, and he only kept thinking while he spoke with Noah.
"What do you want me to do then?" Noah asked.
"Alert everyone around?" he said and saw Karl entering.
"Boss, the work is done," he said, and Tristan gave him a meaningful look and nodded his head in agreement.
