Mistress on My Husband's Phone Novel by Rina Novita

In the morning, I was ready to head to the office. Gillian had already said goodbye and was headed to school with Sofia escorting her to the lobby.

During breakfast, I made sure Albert could come to the office today. His voice still sounds weak. It seemed like he was still sick. I felt bad for him. Maybe I should take him to the doctor after the meeting.

His assistant mentioned that Albert hadn’t seen a doctor because he was scared. Handsome and seemingly imposing, but afraid of doctors. Hah!

I walked toward the apartment lobby, and as I was in the elevator, my phone rang. I was surprised to see Troy’s name on the screen. Why was he calling this early?

“Hey beautiful, are you ready? I’m waiting for you downstairs.”

What?! Troy was at the lobby?!

“I have a driver to take me there. I don’t want to trouble you,” I politely refused. “But I don’t take no for an answer, Ms. Johnson,” he responded firmly.

I sighed heavily. Honestly, I didn’t like his pushy nature. But I didn’t want to argue. I let it go this time.

“Yes, Uncle Benny. Thank you. I’ll make sure to take good care of her.”

It seemed like Troy and Uncle Benny were discussing something serious on the phone when I arrived at the lobby. But I did not know what it was about.

‘Thanks, Troy. You didn’t have to trouble yourself by picking me up.” I say as I meet him in the lobby.

Troy, wearing a maroon shirt and black jacket, looked even more handsome and caught the attention of the apartment residents.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Who wouldn’t know woman passing by looked at him with admiration for his captivConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Troy smiled at me, but I pretended not to see it. Not because I didn’t care, but because I was worried about getting hypnotized by his killer smile again.

‘Come on, princess!” With confidence, Troy offered his arm for me to take. “Ah, at least he’s handsome.”

“Sorry, Troy, I think I should…” I tried to refuse politely.

“Too slow! Hurry up! It’s getting late. I was startled as Troy grabbed my hand and led me to his car.

Ah! I’d go into cardiac arrest if I stayed close to this man too often.

During the drive, Troy was busy on his phone with numerous calls. It seemed that he had a lot of business to handle. His schedule was packed. I could only gape at how busy he was. It turned out my company was nothing compared to Peterson Group.

We arrived at my office a bit late. It looked like all the employees were already there. Troy and I got out of the car. Once again, Troy tried to take my hand. But I politely refused. Finally, we walked side by side.

When Troy arrived, everyone seemed to notice. The women especially, were murmuring excitedly, with some squealing like excited teenagers.

From a distance, I saw Kendall gasp while covering her mouth. Her eyes were glued to Troy.

Kendall walked towards me. It looked like she was determined to approach Troy. With full confidence, Kendall smiled and stood in front of Troy and me.

But Troy seemed indifferent as he kept following me. He didn’t even give Kendall a second look.

“Boo! Get lost Kendall!” Some employees jeered at her. She was really such a shameless woman.

As we climbed the stairs, Troy deliberately took my hand. I couldn’t refuse anymore. I was worried Troy would be offended since I had already rejected him a few times.

As we climbed the stairs, we bumped into Derrick. He looked at me with a piercing glare. It seemed he didn’t like seeing Troy holding my hand. ‘Serves you right, Derrick.‘ I kept walking, Ignoring him.

“Hey, let go of my wife’s hand!” I was shocked to hear Derrick boldly confronting Troy.

That bastard was really looking for trouble.

“Hey! Who are you? How dare a mere employee claim this beautiful CEO as his wife?” Troy looked very annoyed.

“Yes, we were separated for a while. But just so you know, we’ll get back together soon. And I’ll be leading this company!” Derrick said confidently, blocking our way.

This ex of mine was unbelievable. He really had no shame, just like his mistress Kendall.

Troy continued holding my hand, his grip even tighter.

“Hey, dude, you must be daydreaming!” Troy laughed heartily.

Derrick’s face turned even more furious,

“Get this guy out of my sight!” Troy ordered his bodyguards who had been following us from behind.

“Come on, beautiful, don’t mind this useless man!” Troy held my hand as we headed to the meeting room on the second floor.

“Sarah! Please explain to him that we’re getting back together. We’ll be together again, right? Sarah… Sarah!”

Derrick kept shouting even though he was being held back by Troy’s bodyguards.

I invited Troy and his bodyguards into the meeting room. When the door opened, I was surprised to see Uncle Benny and Bradley inside.

“Uncle Benny, how are you?” I greeted the man I consider like a parent.

“Good, Sarah. So, how is it? Has Troy been taking good care of you?” Uncle Benny asked, smiling at Troy. I didn’t understand the meaning behind Uncle

Benny’s question.

Looking around the meeting room, I didn’t see Albert. Did he not come today?

“Sarah, there’s something important I need to tell you.”

“What is it, Uncle?” I asked curiously.

Uncle Benny took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Then he paused for a

moment.

“Well, Sarah. A week ago, your father’s lawyer came to see me and delivered a will that you must fulfill.”

I listened intently.

The will states that… You have to marry Troy Peterson.”

“W–what?!”

I stood up in shock. My eyes widened in disbelief at what I had just heard.

What kind of surprise was this? Why did Troy seem unfazed? Had he known about this beforehand?
