Chapter 168 - What Are You Hiding?

Dexter thought for a while. It was true, this wasn't the first time Kaili had refused his invitation to take her. Moreover, this wife wanted to turn into an independent woman.

Realizing this, he tapped his forehead lightly, somehow Kaili's refusal earlier made him think something had happened, even though this wasn't the first time Kaili didn't want to be escorted.

Maybe because of this woman's strange question last night which stimulated his mind to think like that.

As soon as they got off the elevator, two luxury cars were already parked side by side in front of them.

Subconsciously, Kaili halted her steps. For a moment, she focused her gaze on the Audy R8, which was parked beside her car. The car was always there. Kaili knew the car very well. It was the car Dexter had been using and it was the only one she thought of as the one he had.

But a moment later, she smiled bitterly. When they went to the 'Waiting Bar', this man was in a Rolls Royce, the latest release.

'Ohhh… I see!'

Kaili seemed to understand one thing, and then exhaled roughly.

It turned out that this man had made the perfect lie to trick her. She was so angry, upset, and disappointed when she thought about it!

The anger that filled her heart could be seen in her facial expression.

"Are you okay?"

The soft and gentle voice seemed to bring her soul back from her reverie. She was fully awake.

"Uh, yes, of course," Kaili replied clumsily. It was very uncomfortable when we say that everything was fine when our hearts were feeling the vice versa.

Dexter didn't really believe his wife's words. He raised his hand and put it on Kaili's forehead.

"I thought you have a fever," he muttered.

"I told you, I'm fine." Kaili moved her head away from Dexter's reach.

"We'd better leave immediately, it will be too late," she added.

Dexter just nodded slowly. He gently pulled Kaili's hand up to the front door of a shiny black 'Maybach' car.

Dexter smiled gently at her, opened the driver's seat door, and said, "Come in, wife!"

Kaili froze. It wasn't the first time Dexter had been so sweet to her and she also really liked the way he spoiled her, but this was the first time she had felt so scared. She felt, the more this man was so kind to her, the faster she would go to hell.

'Dexter, what do you want?', Kaili muttered.

Even so, she followed what the man said. Kaili stepped slowly into the car.

Kaili gripped the steering wheel tightly with a stiff smile on her face.

Dexter bent his body. His face was now very close to Kaili's. Without the woman's permission, Dexter landed a kiss on Kaili's lips. This moment only lasted for five seconds, soon after that, Dexter kissed her eyes one by one, down to her left and right cheeks, then her chin and her forehead for a while.

After removing his lips from Kaili's forehead, the man's expression looked sullen, "Why did you just get into the car without kissing me first?"

They usually exchanged kisses before getting into their respective cars, but today, this woman even barely said goodbye.

Ugh!!!

Kaili realized what she did.

She was just about to answer, but the man spoke first.

"Happy working! Do your best in your work," said Dexter while giving her his best smile.

Kaili kept smiling, but her expression looked very complicated.

"I have got to go work, too." Dexter made small talk on purpose, hoping that Kaili would respond. However, again and again, Kaili just smiled. Unfortunately, her smile this morning was not like her usual smile, bright and she looked happy and excited. This time it was so different, she looked like being depressed and preaching a sad story.

Dexter was so irritated! What happened to this woman? He had no idea at all!

"Kaili, if something happened, can you tell me? We can work it all out together. Isn't that what marriage means? Everything must be solved together! If a married couple cannot cooperate or share in good communication, it is worse than any relationship that has ever existed."

Dexter didn't want his married life to be cold and rigid. He would do whatever he could to create an atmosphere of harmonious domestic life, moreover, the woman who became his wife was the woman he loved the most in life.

It was only when she heard Dexter's statement that Kaili realized that her cold demeanor stood out too much. It was not easy to accept Dexter's lies all this time, especially about his identity. It was the most fatal thing in a relationship. But she also didn't immediately want to initiate a cold war! She had to find out more about Dexter's other lies, including all of this man's plans.

It was said that men could turn out to be the most reliable actors in lying to their feelings! They could easily act like they love the most, when in fact they were the opposite! They could also be sweet, even though they actually hated the acting they were playing. In order to achieve the goals, they were working on, then playing a little was nothing new for them.

That was what Kaili realized and she was afraid that Dexter would become one of the said men.

Kaili looked deeply at Dexter. She seemed to want to understand this man well and she also wanted to know the depths of the heart of the man who had become her husband.

After wetting her lips, Kaili spoke to him, "Dexter, is there something you are hiding from me?"

He himself was confused, why that question came again out of her mouth? But this time, he seemed to want to get the real answer. If only Dexter would admit it today, Kaili was sure, she would easily be able to forgive and forget all this man's actions.

This was beyond expectations! Since last night, why did this woman always ask the same question? The more Dexter thought about it the more he was caught in confusion.

"Why? Why are you asking this again?" he asked.

Was the answer last night still not satisfactory enough?

Kaili gulped her saliva. What should she say? Was it okay to say directly that she already knew who this man really was?

Kaili took a deep breath and let it out roughly. It seemed she had an answer.

"No, why do you always asked back? I just don't want secrets in our relationship. Which, I can't know, and vice versa. I'm also actually improving myself, from asking like that. I want to warn myself not to keep anything from you, ANYTHING!"

She was so honest towards this man. She also really appreciated him as her husband! Nothing was hidden. Everything was transparent to Dexter's eyes.

Dexter nodded, "Hmph, I know what you're worried about. Kaili remember this well, the whole world can leave you but I won't. Even when you don't want me. I'm an ordinary man. I realize that, but I can present this world to you, if you wish!" He held Kaili's cheek, "I may not be able to promise to always make you happy, but I can promise never to disappoint you. Do you understand?"

Kaili just stared at him in silence. She was so reluctant to answer 'yes' because right now this man had really disappointed her. Finally, she could only nod.

Dexter gently stroked the top of his wife's head, "Go, I don't want you to be late." He closed the car door.

At the same minute, the car went quickly in front of him when he was just about to sit in his car! Dexter froze for a moment as he watched the Maybach car slowly drift away from him. His brow furrowed. Questions after questions filled his brain, not a single answer he managed to solve.

After taking a deep breath, Dexter also left the parking area, heading towards GBK.

GBK Building,

"Brandy…" Dexter called out to his personal assistant in annoyance.

It was unusual for this dashing man to be angry in the morning, especially after a good relationship with Kaili, he was always excited and beaming. But this time? Why was anger clearly visible on this handsome boss' countenance?

Dexter's anger like this, reminded Brandy of the incident when his boss' love for Kaili was a tangled mess of strings.

'Did they fight?'

Brandy gulped down his saliva with difficulty. He knew very well when this man had a fight with Kaili, this man would turn into the most terrifying monster he had ever met.

"B-boss…"

Brandy hadn't asked what's wrong, but Dexter hastily gave him orders!

"Go check, why is Madam acting weird all night?" Dexter said the order without even looking at Brandy.

Acting weird all night?

Brandy immediately thought of the simplest thing.
