Master's Untamed Wife

Since Cloe had to confirm today's itinerary with Raelle, she followed them inside the office. As she was closing the door, she could see the staff craning their necks trying to get a peek of the situation inside. But Cloe firmly shut the door at their faces.

When she turned around, Shui Xian had just put Raelle on her chair. Then he straightened up and looked around her office. It was his first time at his wife's office, he was certainly curious to see the place she worked at.

"Aren't you getting late for the day, Hubby?"

*Cough! Cough! Cough!*

Cloe ended up coughing when she heard Raelle calling him, 'hubby' so naturally. She covered her mouth and apologized before lowering her head.

Shui Xian smiled at her reaction before he answered his wife, "No, wifey. I still have time." Then he faced her and added, "Besides, I was thinking I should just take a day off today."

"No!" came Raelle's response. "Go to work."

Shui Xian made a face to show his grievance, "Wifey, how can you so easily tell me to leave? Wouldn't you be happy that your husband is willing to leave everything to spend a day with you?"

"That's unnecessary," replied Raelle.

Shui Xian sighed out heavily, "It seems my wife doesn't need me." He held her hand reluctant to let go, "What to do? I don't wanna leave my wife."

Raelle didn't even bother responding to his act so Shui Xian could only let go. He leaned down to drop a kiss at her temple saying, "Take care of yourself. I'll call to check up on you."

Raelle hummed in reply and watched him leave. She pointed at Cloe and taking the hint, Cloe also followed him out.

Outside her office, after the initial shock of seeing their boss in a man's arms wore off, now everyone finally noticed the man who had walked into their boss' room. Cloe could only give them a hard stare to make them get back to their work as she escorted Shui Xian to the elevator.

"How's your hangover?" inquired Shui Xian when Cloe entered the elevator with him. It seemed she was asked to escort him to the car. Shui Xian was amused by the thought of his wife having her Vice President escort him to his car.

Cloe rubbed her forehead and smiled awkwardly, "Bearable."

"Do you have something to say to me?"

Cloe looked up at him and pursed her lips before nodding her head.

"Go ahead."

Cloe hesitated for a minute before saying, "Your image just collapsed."

"Huh?"

"I had a revered image of you in my mind but today, you just destroyed it by trying to act cute with Chief."

"What am I gonna do by keeping an image before my own wife?" restored Shui Xian calmly. "She doesn't need me to keep that kind of an image. It's really unnecessary."

Cloe zipped her lips and decided not to comment on this. Ice Master Xian turned out to be a member of the doting wife club. There was nothing she could do about it. She could only accept this reality that Master Xian wasn't as cold as it was rumored.

As Shui Xian reached the car, he turned back to look at her and said, "I hope you take care of my wife. She isn't well today."

Cloe's lips twitched, "Aren't you overdoing it?"

"Am I?" Shui Xian looked at her thoughtfully before shaking his head. "I don't think so. If I have to get to my wife's heart, I have to overdo it a little. She is special. I have to take a special approach to pursue her as well."

Cloe cursed under her breath when she saw him leaving. 'This husband and wife are not gonna let me live. My single soul is tortured here!' She thought to herself with a crying face. Then she wiped her non-existent tears, flipped her hair, and trotted off.

By the time she arrived at the top floor, she could hear a lot of gossip flying around in the air.

Employee A: "Is President Raelle dating?"

Employee B: "She sure has a handsome boyfriend. I'm so jealous!"

Employee C: "But why does he look so familiar?"

Cloe really didn't want to pay attention to any of it but she had to do so. She gathered all these gossip mongers around and warned, "If you keep running off your mouths like this, soon I'll throw you all out of here. Stop gossiping and get back to work."

Although she loved to gossip herself, she also knew that some things couldn't be said out loud.

She went back to Raelle and informed, "I personally escorted Master Xian to the car and only came back after the car left." Raelle hummed in reply and Cloe got serious as she detailed her about the itinerary. "There is another thing I think I should let you know."

"What is it?"

"Since last night Master Xian publicly displayed his interest in you, currently a lot of reporters are trying to get a scoop."

"So?"

"If you want to keep your relationship a secret, I suggest that you avoid keeping a high profile."

Raelle lifted her eyes, "And who said I want to keep our relationship a secret?"

Cloe was stunned, "You don't? Why are you hiding that you both got married?"

"That's different," responded Raelle. "But I don't see any problem with everyone knowing that there is indeed something going on between us. At least, it'd keep people from trying to approach me with ulterior motives."

"I should really re-evaluate my understanding of you," said Cloe. Suddenly, thinking of something, Cloe asked, "Chief, where is your best friend these days?"

"He joined the film crew," answered Raelle.

"Where is he and how is he doing?"

Raelle tapped her finger on the table and she repeated, "How is he doing? I also wonder what he is up to."

"You don't know?" Cloe's eyes widened in shock. Didn't Raelle Xiang like to have everything under her control? Then how come there was something she didn't know right now? Especially when it involved her best friend!

However, Raelle really had no idea about Hyson's situation at the moment. She didn't even get to talk to him in the past few days. She had just tried to call him this morning but his phone was out of reach. She did know that he had a network issue wherever he was.

....

Meanwhile, the person in question had still been sulking because he couldn't contact his family. He knew Raelle wouldn't worry about it since the watch she gave him could allow her to not only track his location but it could also send his vitals. So, she'd be reassured as long as his heart was beating.

But he wasn't reassured at all! He wanted to see his family!

What was the point of living in this technologically advanced world when he couldn't even check up on his family? At one point he even regretted taking this role.

He was the crazy person who left his full scholarship in Country G just because he wanted to come back to his mother. How could he bear this situation?

However, Hyson didn't realize that his bad mood was actually being seen in a different way by the whole crew. Sora even went to reproach her best friend, "Mia, how could you be so mean? Hyson is such a cheerful person and because of you he had been in a bad mood."

"What did I do wrong?" questioned Director Amiah Jade.

"Couldn't be a little nicer to him? It's his first time. Of course, he'd make some mistakes. It's normal. He isn't superhuman."

Amiah didn't really listen to her as she replied, "If he can't handle it, he should quit early to save us all."

Sora was infuriated to hear that, "I can't believe I have a friend like you. I know you have a short temper but when did your personality get so bad? I almost can't recognize you." She took a long and deep breath, "You know what, don't talk to me now."

"How can you take this personally?"

Sora pointed at her, "You're the one taking it personally. I know you don't like people like Hyson but I thought you'd put your prejudice aside for my sake. After all, it's me who insisted on casting him. But I really overestimated our friendship."

"It's nothing like that," Amiah tried to explain but Sora was in no mood to listen now. She huffed and left her behind. Amiah rubbed her temples and looked over at Hyson. Her eyes turned cold when she thought about how he was the reason why her best friend was acting like this with her.

She thought of something and went up to Hyson's side. Hyson didn't even look up. He was lost in his own world since he was done with his scenes for the day.

"It seems it was really a mistake to have you join this crew," said Amiah with anger.
