Chapter 48 - Not a good time. (1/2)

As soon as the call was connected and secure, she try to made her way to the base only to encounter another group of MUTINY. Which almost made her curse that instance.

”Damn it.” Unknowingly she said it out loud.

”That's a nice way of picking call from your husband. Did i disturb your rest, wife?” Tristan low voice can be heard from the connected call. She almost gave another curse when she heard his voice. She dodge another punch before landing a kick to the opponent causing him to grunt in pain. She took the chance to land another punch and chop his neck making the person passed out.

”Dear, sorry. I bumped my toe on the desk and you know how irritating that kind of pain can be. Sorry. I didn't mean to curse you.” She said in between her fight with the relentless opponent. They just keep on coming.

”Honey, why you're still awake? I thought we agreed that you would not stay up late. It's almost 3 in the morning.”

Alicia just realize she got herself trapped by her sly husband. She coughed a couple of times while thinking for a perfect excuses and fighting at the same time. She can even hear Uno is mocking her with his snicker. This is really not a good time to pick up her husband's call.

”That,,,ermmm,,,just not used without you sleeping by my side.” She gave her solid reason.

”Really? Why does it feel like my wife is doing something that i'm not happy with?” It wasn't just a simple question. But after seeing Farrah's picture taken doing something dangerous, he felt like something was amiss. Especially when it comes to his wife. He have every reasons to doubt his own wife. Not cheating but something dangerous. Illegal. The adventurous and wild side of her always worries him back then. And after they got married, Alicia have become too docile. In fact too obedient to his liking. That's not the person that he's been watching over for years.

”Why would you say that?” She punched hard on the opponent's face as if venting her frustration and her anxiousness over Tristan's question.

”My instinct.” He replied.

Alicia felt like his instinct is too correct and it gives her shivers. She laughed awkwardly.

”Dear, do you think i would cheat on you?”

”I'm not worried about that since i'll just destroy every men who laid their eyes on you. What i'm worried about is my wild, adventurous wife has become docile like a cat lately that it doesn't goes well.” He heard another curse and he can hear her panting hard which made his brows furrowed deeper. He made a sign to locate Alicia's whereabouts to Ralph.
