Chapter 170 - Do You Like Her?

Hearing the word 'walk away', Dexter's heart felt like it was being stabbed by sharp and pointed objects. He was in pain, even just imagining it!

"Grizelle, but you know, I keep so much from her, which she knows and which she doesn't know yet, I have absolutely no idea-"

Grizelle quickly interrupted,

{Who asked you to guess which one Kaili knows or not. I tell you, you should just confess all your evil deeds to her! That if you want your household to be fine.}

"All?" Dexter's brow furrowed! He had too much to hide! If he told all his secrets at once, wouldn't that be too dangerous?

"But what if Kaili gets even angrier later?" Asked Dexter. He really doubted.

{If she gets angry, that's a good sign instead.}

Dexter didn't understand the direction of Grizelle's thoughts! It seemed that Kenzie's arrival in-country J had hit her so hard that she gave him advice that wasn't even appropriate.

Dexter was suddenly annoyed! Why did he contact someone who was also heartbroken? He really was stupid!

Just as Dexter was about to end the ongoing phone call, Grizelle's voice came back.

{Dexter, which woman wouldn't be angry if her husband had so many lies? If I were Kaili, I wouldn't even want to ask your honesty! I will be angry and leave you! Just imagine how sad Kaili's life you made! She married a man whose identity could be said to be faked. Indirectly, you have deceived her. She could be thinking right now that you're trying to set her up! Not to mention, you raped her. Your crimes were truly unforgivable.

I suggest you admit it immediately, don't let her know all your lies from others. If that time comes, there will be no forgiveness for you. Trust what I say.

At this time, your wife is still asking, you have to answer it honestly. Otherwise, please prepare to lose her!}

Grizelle was so pissed off! She worked so hard for love, but this friend was always making conspiracies in his love life. Didn't this man remember how much suffering he went through to get Kaili's love?

As if that wasn't enough, Grizelle continued to advise while scolding Dexter.

{But if you lose Kaili, that's also good news for me. At least I still have a little more chance of getting Kenzie. Why not, once you and Kaili separate, then Silvia won't stay silent either. Remember what I said!}

Even Grizelle didn't really understand herself, why did she even encourage Dexter to always try to chase Kaili? Even though she clearly knew, if Dexter teamed up with Silvia, then the chances of uniting with Kenzie would be even greater, but what she did was quite the opposite.

Maybe because she was always ignored and too tired to chase love that never got to her. She didn't want to see anyone suffer because of love, especially if the two of them really loved each other.

At the bottom of his heart, Dexter confirmed everything Grizelle said, but how could it be that simple!

"Grizelle, I'm just afraid she'll get mad and then leave me. If that happens, I don't know how to live."

{It's natural she gets angry. You raped her, you tricked her. If she is not angry, that is something to be afraid of. If she gets angry and goes to cool off, you just need to give her some space to relax for a while. After that, you have to be more active in showing your love. How about Kaili, I'm sure you know her better than I do.}

"Hmph... Alright. I'll tell her."

He also felt that this lie could not be covered up any longer.

.........~~~.........

Meanwhile, ever since Kaili set foot in the office, she had only been spending her time daydreaming, whereas, she should have been working hard right now so that the advertising project that was currently in progress, fell into her hands. However, her spirit which was once very passionate now seemed to have disappeared until nothing remained when she found out the truth about her husband's identity.

Kaili lazily leaned her head on the back of the chair she was currently sitting on. Her eyes had been looking at the cellphone screen which was located on the table next to the laptop. On the screen, there was a photo, a photo that had always been her big dream that she dared not pursue, but instead became hers.

Yes, it was their wedding photo: her and Dexter. The photos were candidly taken because at that time Dexter turned down every camera that wanted to capture his face.

Kaili kept looking at him with complicated feelings. She herself was confused by the condition of her marriage now. What exactly was their marriage for? It was still a question for her.

Kaili took the phone and gave a closer look at the photo.

"What is your aim, my husband?"

The question emerged from her lips that had been tightly shut. Kaili also realized that no matter how much she persuaded him, he wouldn't tell all his secrets.

Kaili's dumbfounded action was apparently caught by Edrei.

Edrei saw Kaili who looked like she was lazing around. When she wanted to rebuke her, Delwyn, who was also watching Kaili from the next hallway, immediately grabbed Edrei's wrist.

Getting this sudden treatment made Edrei slightly startled. She almost screamed, but swiftly, Delwyn covered Edrei's mouth and led her into a quiet hallway.

"Cousin, what are you doing?" She couldn't hold back her anger anymore. She was upset! Her cousin stopped him when she was about to scold the woman she hated.

"It's in the office. Don't make a fuss." Based on Edrei's character, this woman would yell and scold Kaili.

"Tranquility is paramount in the workplace," Delwyn added.

"Ha? Wow!" Edrei sneered. She raised her gaze upwards to stare intensely at her cousin as well as her boss, then slowly raised the corners of her lips and said, "Then, letting a new employee laze around during working hours when clearly there are still many projects in progress, is the main thing? And what if another employee saw her and imitated her disgraceful attitude, who can explain?"

Delwyn smiled, "Don't be too presumptuous about things. Kaili is a scriptwriter, daydreaming is already one of the ways scriptwriters think about their ideas. If they don't silently think about the idea they want to write about, then what should they do?"

Edrei still didn't accept it, anyway for her Kaili was always wrong! That was what she thoughts.

She looked at the handsome man in front of her, then firmly said, "You defended her and always do! Don't tell me you're defending her because you like her, huh?"

Delwyn frowned, Edrei always gave perfunctory assumptions!

He then reprimanded Edrei firmly but gently, "Edrei, watch what you say!"

If anyone heard and spread this, Kaili would be the one to suffer the most! Rumors about her getting into this company through a 'shortcut', would be heard again. This must be very unpleasant.

Edrei turned her face in annoyance, her lips slowly lifted to say, "You can like any woman in this world, as long as not her! Anyway, I don't agree that you have special feelings for her more than between boss and employee!"

She was a woman she hated. Even the sky was split open, she would not want it if Kaili became her cousin!

Delwyn could see the intense hatred in Edrei's eyes as she said those words.

"'Anyone, as long as it's not Kaili', may I assume that you hate her so much? Did something happen between you two? Why do you seem to dislike her so much?"

Edrei folded her arms across her chest. Her lips always pouting. "Why should I like her?"

Edrei didn't give an answer but instead threw a statement. Delwyn who had been wanting to dig up information could only sigh harshly. This cousin of his was never reliable!

"Well then, you better continue working, don't you expect your team to get this project?"

The woman narrowed her eyes. Before leaving the hallway, she first glared at Delwyn then said, "I don't know how you feel about her. I don't want to know either! Remember this, our family does not accept someone who has been someone else's wife/husband to enter our family!"

After saying that, Edrei didn't wait for Delwyn's answer. She rushed off. Delwyn just smiled while shaking his head when he heard his cousin's words.

"Do I like her? Whoa, that's right!"

Compared to him, it was 'his plan' that favored Kaili.

After done with Edrei, Delwyn returned to monitoring Kaili's desk. The cute girl was no longer struggling in a daydream. Her slender fingers were now starting to type a few letters on the keyboard. Even though he was so curious, it wasn't normal for him to be here constantly monitoring the cute girl.. So, like it or not, he was forced to end the action monitoring Kaili.
