Now Victoria wants to do her secret mission without Matthias knowing. Her goal is to destroy the cooperation between Matthias and Anton because she doesn't want to see many more victims, even though indirectly saving Matthias again. However, she is very disgusted by Anton's dirty way of taking all her clients for his selfishness.
Victoria kept her expression blank as Matthias thought she would be disappointed because their date would be canceled. She still didn't want to go on a date, because until now she still hated Matthias very much.
Her right hand hit her husband's back without hesitation. "Don't expect me to date you! I prefer you to work on your days off."
"But, do you know Anton?"
"Of course. He is very famous in the field of interior design. Even now I always feel inferior to him. He works in a well-known company, while I have only been starting a company for the past five years."
Matthias nodded. "I see. But, wouldn't you be angry if I were to establish a working relationship with him?"
Victoria folded her arms. "Why are you asking me when I'm clearly competing with Anton? Do you think I'll be angry to hear that?"
"Yes, if I were you, I would definitely be angry." A mischievous smile appeared on his handsome face. "But, it seems like you're too late. I've already seen the interior design proposal that Anton submitted earlier. If you want to ask me to work with you, you're too late!"
"You really are a jerk, Matthias!"
"That's why, from the start you shouldn't have left me. If our relationship hadn't failed, I would have worked with you for a long time."
"I am so disappointed in you!" Victoria immediately got up from the sofa, then climbed the stairs one by one to her room.
Now Matthias felt he had won because he saw his wife's sulking facial expression because of business matters, it was certain that his wife was actually jealous now. He had succeeded in using this strange trick. Now it was just a matter of seeing what his wife's attitude would be like towards him. Would she really chase him or still ignore him like before?
Meanwhile, Victoria was still sulking and locking herself in her room. She looked around the guest room in annoyance while taking her cellphone. Even though she was hostile towards Anton, she still communicated with him as if they were friends.
In less than a minute, the phone call was connected.
"Wow, it's an honor to have you contact me directly, Victoria."
"By the way, are you free tomorrow? It's been a while since we played tennis."
"Actually, I have promised my client we will play tennis together."
Victoria had already suspected that Anton's client was Matthias. However, she pretended not to know anything because she didn't want everyone to know her real relationship with Matthias.
"It turns out you are still working hard, even though tomorrow is Sunday."
"If you want to play tennis with me tomorrow, I don't mind."
A sly smile immediately appeared on his face. "Do you really not mind me intruding on your business?"
"It's okay, I actually miss you a little."
"Okay, I will make time tomorrow just to play with you."
Victoria ended the phone call quickly. Now it was time for her to think about how to make Matthias want to work with her like before.
Actually, Matthias only cooperated with her regarding the renovation of this house. Because at that time Matthias had difficulty finding a reliable interior design vendor to create his perfect house. Victoria only knew that far. Regarding the business cooperation issue, until now she still has no information.
Nearing midnight, Victoria quietly sneaked into the study. She put a sketchbook on the table. Actually, she still hadn't prepared a proposal for Matthias because it was too sudden to do this secret mission.
Now she just hoped Matthias would like all her designs. Not liking them because they were husband and wife, but she hoped Matthias would truly judge them professionally.
Even though she didn't do much today, she decided to rest early before she faced the war tomorrow. Moreover, the bed in this room was very soft, so she immediately fell asleep soundly.
Suddenly the homeowner entered the guest room quietly so as not to wake up his special guest who was very sweet every morning.sleep. He sat on the edge of the bed while staring at his wife's beauty with sparkling eyes. His right hand reached for the back of his wife's tiny hand.
"Back when we were dating, I always accompanied you to bed. You never kicked me out and you would even get mad if I couldn't accompany you because I was busy. Whereas now, you always kick me out as if I was a pest in your life." His lips kissed her forehead for a few seconds. "Actually, I'm mad to see you being chased by men now. It seems like you're very interested in Anton. Should I ruin your relationship?"
The next morning, Matthias prepared himself in no time before meeting Anton. The breakfast menu that he cooked this time was simpler than before, so that his wife's lips immediately moved.
"Didn't you cook more before? Why did you only cook one menu today?" Victoria protested.
"Sorry, actually I don't want to eat too much because I want to play tennis with Anton."
"I am very disappointed!"
"Then, I want to ask you out on a date after I finish my business."
"No need. Besides, I didn't intend to date you on a holiday in the first place!"
Matthias arrived at the tennis court early with a young man who was shorter than him. He smiled slyly as he shook hands with the young man.
"Thank you for inviting me to play tennis with you on your day off."
Anton smiled sarcastically, holding the CEO's hand. "It's an honor to be able to play tennis with you at a time like this."
"How about we start now? Before it gets too late."
"It seems like you really forgot about me, Anton."
The sight of Victoria wearing a white tennis dress while carrying a racket made Matthias' eyes widen.
