"I forced myself onto her . "
"WHAT?! You raped your wife?!" Edward exclaimed and stood up because of the shock he felt .
"Not that kind of force! I kissed her in a very harsh way that she had to fight back and walked out of the room . " Vince explained elaborately .
"Why did you do that?"
"Jealousy . I was jealous . " Vince admitted .
"JEALOUS?!"
"I know it may sound stupid but the past few days she has been secretive . I don't like it . "
"This is not the first time that she was secretive . When you were still trying to win her back, she was quiet almost all the time . "
"I know but this time it's different . Haru called her late last night and the moment I told her the information this morning, she sent text messages to her . "
"In other words you got jealous with the closeness between your friend and fiance?"

"Don't you dare make fun of me . Haru is Yve's idol . Of course, you can argue that it's just admiration . . . But Ugghh!! I don't know anymore . "
Edward can now see the point of his cousin . Well if he was in his cousin's position, he might also feel the same . The only difference is that Vince doesn't know the topic and it's driving him crazier . If only he can reveal the plan to his cousin .
"Okay, I understand . I will cancel all the executive meeting with other leaders . I will deal with the rest . " Edward said before leaving his cousin inside the room .
He can't do anything about it except inform Yve and leave the patching up to her .
Yve received Edward's message a bit since she was in a meeting . Upon reading the contents, she sighed and smiled at her jealous husband . As the old problem was resolved, she has a different one in her hand . .
'How will I be able to make it up to him without revealing the surprise wedding?'
She has been cracking her head but still nothing comes up . But then, Sylvan knocked on the door and came in .
"What is it, Sylvan?"
"Miss, if you don't have any plans, can we come back to the hotel a little earlier?" Sylvan requested .
"Why is that?" Yve got a bit irritated as she still hasn't figured out how to please Vince .
"Madam Maddie told us to come to the head office for a suit and dress fitting . "
"Hmm . . . I see . Then I will come with you . I need to speak to Maddie . "
"Yes, Miss . " Sylvan was left with no other choice but to agree .
'This will cause another fight if she will not go home early . ' Sylvan thought as he closed the door .
Although he's scared at Maddie he has no other choice but to inform the Madam of her son's tantrum . True to his understanding of Maddie's attitude, the woman came and talked to her future daughter-in-law . Yve was dumbfounded by this sudden visit .
"MOM!"
"Yve, I heard from your secretary of the recent feud with my son . "
"Mom, I wouldn't call it a feud . It's just a small misunderstanding . "
"Hmmm . . . . Now have you thought on how will you calm his jealous heart?"
"Not yet . I was hoping to ask for your help . Aside from being honest, I don't know what to do . At this juncture, honesty is not an option . "
"Invite him out for dinner and make him feel that he's the only one for you . " Maddie suggested .
"He's really the only one for me . "
"I know but my stupid son is thinking otherwise . The secret planning for your wedding is making him feel insecure . Since he doesn't know that, it's eating him inside . " Maddie explained .
"Now that I think about it, I'm partly at fault . Thank you, Maddie . " Yve said and dialed Edward's number .
"Edward? What time will Vince finish his schedule?" She asked .
"He has no schedule for today . He's drinking inside the suite since this morning . " Edward reported like a child informing his mother of her husband's misconduct .
"WHAT?!" Yve couldn't believe her ears .
It's already late in the afternoon and soon night will officially come . If Vince has been drinking this morning, she can't start to imagine Vince's appearance .
"Mom, I'll be going ahead . Edward said that Vince has been drinking since this morning . "
Without waiting for her response, Yve left the office with Chrysthe following closely behind her . Sylvan, on the other hand, decided to drive Maddie to her office where they were told to meet for the suit and dress fitting .
As soon as they arrive, the rest of Team Alpha was there minus Chrysthe are already waiting for them . Maddie doesn't want to waste anyone's time so she started the fitting simultaneously . The men were assisted by the staff while she focused on Eybelle's dress . As each of them tries out the suits, they realized how Maddie made their outfits stylish yet convenient . Inside the fitting room, they tried sparring a bit to check the fit and found it perfect .
'As expected of the fashion Queen . She really knows what her clients' priorities in terms of clothes are . ' They all thought in unison .
While the team is busy on their attire for the event, Yve has just arrived at the hotel . She found herself hurrying to their room . As she opened the door, she saw her husband lying on the couch sleeping like a log . On the table, there were empty bottles of whiskey and his glass .
She removed her coat and hanged it on the opposite couch . She walked to the closet to get a t-shirt that Vince might change into . Once she decided on the shirt Vince will wear, she went to the bathroom and got some towels and a basin of water to wipe Vince's face and exposed arms and legs . Vince must have been very drunk that none of her movements woke the man up . When she finished changing his clothes, she decided to prepare a soup for Vince's hang-over as soon as he wakes up .
After cooking, she took a warm bath and changed into her comfortable pajamas . She sat by Vince's side and read the reports she failed to understand later that afternoon . As she finished her works, she turned her head around and whispered to Vince,
"I'm sorry if my actions the past few days made you feel so insecure . "
"However, I hope you will trust me on this one . "
"You will always be the one for me and nothing or no one will be able to change that . "
She kissed Vince on the lips before placing her head on the space beside Vince's body and closed her eyes . As she fell asleep without realizing, the man lying on the couch opened his eyes and smiled at her confession . He kissed her on the lips and apologized to her sleeping face .
Once more, he kissed her on the lips a bit longer this time and carried her to their bed . After placing her comfortably, he gave in to hangover that has been bugging him the moment he woke up . He went to the kitchen and saw the soup . He served himself and enjoyed the hang over soup Yve probably cooked for him .
Once his tummy was full, he washed the dishes before heading to the bed to sleep beside his Queen . As the deepness of the mattress shifted due to his movement, Yve's body subconsciously turned around and hugged his unsettled body . A smile escaped from his face as he carefully finalize his position without waking her up . Unbreaking her embrace, he makes it tighter by hugging her back . Without any official conversation, they resolved their issue and slept the night away warming on each other's body heat .
