There was a trace of misery in the air. Mary looked displeased. Did he want more? She raised her head and her eyes met with William's. His eyes carried the same expression that they'd always had. She laughed at herself because she realized that she was overthinking again.
"I'll change the sheets for you." Mary glared at William and pulled the pile of sheets from under his arms. What happened that night left an indelible shadow in her heart. She had been keeping herself from entering that room again.
Since William had lowered his pride and begged for her cooperation, she was bound to fulfill her duties as his 'good wife' that he bought with his wealth.
Mary bent over and meticulously laid out the bed sheets.
William stood behind her with his arms crossed.
It was so quiet in the room that they could almost hear each other's breathing. Mary felt that the burning eyes on her back had been glaring at her all this time, and it made her feel uncomfortable.
"Have you taken care of what happened?" Mary broke the eerie atmosphere.
"Yeah." Naturally, William understood what she meant by "what happened".
"That's good to know." Mary nodded. She could finally visit her mother at the hospital without the paparazzi chasing her everywhere. She didn't want the person she wanted to protect the most to be dragged into her problems.
"Do you want to shoot an ad?"
William said out of the blue.
"Are you asking me?" After she finished with the bed sheets, Mary turned around and stared at William.
"That's right."
"I'm not interested." Mary's eyes remained cold as she walked past him. "You can sleep now."
"You're going to be paid handsomely. Don't you want the money?" William scowled.
"I don't need it." Mary closed the door behind h
eter high heels, she looked regal and elegant.
As soon as she walked out of the dressing room, she saw that William was already sitting before the piano.
Did he really wear a blue suit?
As if he felt Mary's gaze on his back, William slowly turned around with a warm smile on his face.
"My wife, allow me to play a song for you, okay?"
Behind him was a gentle ray of sunshine, and his body was covered in a halo of light. He wore a sapphire blue suit and a beige tie, which matched perfectly with Mary's dress.
His tall figure, elegant smile, and the sapphire blue suit fitted him well.
He slowly sat in front of the piano, and placed his slender fingers on the black and white keys. The corners of his mouth slightly raised. He glanced at Mary again and his fingers started moving.
Mary took two steps forward. The expression on her face was incredulous. She was shocked and intoxicated.
In everyone's eyes, the scene was nothing short of magical.
"Victor, let's go. You still have work tonight." Jorge patted Victor who was clearly stunned.
Victor frowned and said nothing. He went the studio to take a few sets of photos. But when he finished changing and got out of his dressing room, he saw that William and Mary were shooting for the advertisement.
He was so jealous that the beautiful Mary was standing with William. But what made him even more jealous was the way she gazed at him.
It seemed as if the two of them were the only ones remaining in the world, and there was only one person she could see; and it was William. There was so much passion in her eyes, and it almost drove Victor insane.
Victor clasped his hands together until his knuckles cracked. "Let's go," he snorted.
'William, do you want to crash and burn?'
