Trapped In A Marriage I Never Wanted
Chapter 12: How About The Cooperation?

Chapter 12: Chapter 12: How About The Cooperation?

Matthias didn’t care that the winner of this match was Anton. He only cared about his wife who was injured because she pushed herself too hard to win this match. He quickly ran to his helpless wife on the field, then crouched down while helping to position his wife’s legs straight. He really hated seeing the current situation, at first he hated Anton a little, now he really hated Anton because he indirectly tortured Victoria until she was injured for his selfishness.

"Victoria, calm down. I’m here."

Her head nodded, trying to hold back her tears as the injury she was currently experiencing made her whole body ache.

Matthias hugged his wife’s slender body lovingly while patting her back rhythmically. "Even though you lost, you are still the winner for me. You don’t have to be afraid anymore. I won’t hand you over to that bastard."

"So, what about cooperation?"

"Of course, I will end it all right now. After he tortured you for his selfishness, I will not cooperate with him. Whether the proposal he gave me is perfect or not."

Matthias did not just talk carelessly. For a moment he let his wife sit on the field alone, then he walked to the other side of the field to approach the perpetrator who made his wife miserable. If he had not maintained a professional and perfectionist attitude, he would not hesitate to beat his greatest enemy to the ground.

"Are you satisfied to see Victoria finally lose because you used cheating methods?"

Anton laughed lightly and put his hands on his hips. "I didn’t cheat. It’s just that she’s not good at tennis."

"Watch out if you dare to mess with her!"

"Now I want to ask you. What is your relationship with Victoria really? Since when did you two become so close?"

"That’s none of your business! What is certain is that Victoria is the closest person to me and the only woman I can rely on. You have no right to torture her in front of me!" Matthias pushed Anton’s shoulder with his index finger. "I also want to cancel our cooperation seeing how rude you are to women."

"Okay, I will follow you. However, the schedule for me to present my proposal will not change. Don’t mix work and personal matters!"

Anton was furious to see this situation was different from his expectations. Although he won the tennis match, he still couldn’t win the heart of his enemy who was too beautiful in his eyes.

Matthias returned to his wife with a panicked expression. He immediately carried his wife’s supple body to the canteen area. Of course he acted quickly to buy a bunch of ice cubes then slowly compressed the right heel area.

While Victoria was a little nervous suddenly being treated so excessively like this. Even though she didn’t expect it to end up like this. However, she was very grateful because her injury also brought her good luck.

"It hurts."

"Don’t move too much for now." Matthias stroked his wife’s head slowly. "Why are you pushing yourself so hard if you really can’t?"

"What’s wrong? Are you jealous seeing me being intimate with another man?"

"Yes, I am very jealous and I feel like I am really going crazy imagining you always being targeted by other men! That is why I don’t want to work with Anton!"

A sweet smile returned to her face. She was happy not because of the sweet attitude shown by Matthias at this time. But, because she managed to make Matthias cancel the unprofitable cooperation.

"Thank goodness, I was worried that you would still want to work with him."

Matthias frowned. "Why do you expect me to cancel my cooperation with him? Is it because you think I betrayed you?"

"No. But, I actually meant to save you. Didn’t you know that Anton often plagiarizes other designers’ designs?"

"No. How do you know that he often does dirty things?"

"Of course because Anton is my main competitor, I asked my assistant to find out about him. I also got a lot of information that he also harmed other companies that had worked with him."

"Even though you hate him, why did you seem so close to him just now?"

Victoria smiled mischievously, lifting the handsome CEO’s chin. "Are you jealous?"

"Yeah, I’m so jealous. That jerk doesn’t deserve to be your boyfriend!"

"By the way, thanks for saving me earlier." Victoria looked away as she pushed a strand of hair behind her ear. "But, that doesn’t mean I fell in love with you right away."

"I know. Winning your heart is really hard. I also don’t really expect you to love me anytime soon."

"Now I just want to go home. I don’t want to go anywhere else."

"For today, let’s just date indoors."

Of course Matthias did not serve Victoria half-heartedly. He really served Victoria like a princess even though Victoria did not feel cramps anymore. Now Victoria felt like she was locked up in prison. She could not do anything freely. Moreover, now her husband accompanied her in the guest room like a warden.

"Why are you locking me up now? Do you want to treat me as a prisoner now?"

Matthias raised his head while holding his wife’s sketchbook. "Since when did I consider you a prisoner? I’m locking you up now so you won’t act recklessly again! If I hadn’t met Anton today, I’m sure your body would have been touched by that bastard!"

Victoria folded her arms. "Then what about us? You already slept with me back then!"

"We do it naturally because we are legally married!"

"You are so annoying, Matthias!"

Matthias opened the sketchbook pages one by one. "I have seen all my designs. Of course I am very interested in working with you. You also managed to make me satisfied living in the house you designed."

"But, Anton will not give up on persuading you."

"I don’t mind. I will listen to the presentation of the proposal. I also want you to do the same so that it seems that I am treating you fairly."
