52. The King felt jealous.

'Am I enough for you?" he asked again. 'Will you promise to stay with me until we grow old? Damn, are my questions getting corny? I'm sorry, I'm just feeling jealous." He scratched his head as he asked. So this is how the King felt jealous, huh? Briella couldn't hide her sweet smile and gently stroked his handsome cheek. 'You're too much, President Braun. Don't you feel how much I love you?" she tenderly coaxed him. 'I can give everything to you, too," she added. 'Just a little patience, hubby. I'll reach the top and become successful again," she said. I promise that once I regain my name and become worthy of you, no one can separate us! she swore to herself. 'Then let's cut the chase, shall we? How about we pay a visit to Matilda Jimenez?" he said with a smile. Briella's eyes widened and momentarily froze in surprise. How did he find Matilda so quickly? While Chelsey had been searching for that woman for days. Until she sees and punishes that woman, she will not succeed in getting her revenge. 'How did you find her?" she asked in amazement. 'Connections, wife. I have a lot of connections—eyes and ears everywhere," Braun answered with a smile. She smiled as well and approached to kiss Braun on the lips, which he eagerly reciprocated, and what it intended as a shallow kiss deepened, becoming passionate and fiery. She quickly moved to Braun's lap, and Braun removed the car keys so they wouldn't make a noise. She quickly removed Braun's jacket and polo while Braun turned its dress upwards effortlessly and removed her innerwear without difficulty. They both moaned as their sensitive parts touched, and Briella's hips moved automatically in Braun's lap. 'Wife..." he called out to it between heavy breaths. She just moaned in response while her hands were busy removing Braun's belt and releasing its throbbing hardness. Their lips met again, and Briella felt one of Braun's hands caressing and squeezing her hips while his other hand played with the crown of her breast. She moaned as Braun's kisses descended to her neck, continuing to grind in his lap, seemingly teasing his long hardness to enter her. Braun leaned back in the seat and lifted it, slowly aligning their bodies. 'Uhm..." she moaned as she felt his fullness inside her. Their eyes met, and they didn't move for a while. After a moment, she began to move slowly while keeping her gaze on Braun. His mouth was open as if he wanted to say something but didn't continue, leaning back against the seat and closing his eyes as if thoroughly enjoying what she was doing. She was happy when she saw him enjoying what she was doing and intensified her actions even more, and he felt him tightening his grip on her waist and syncing with her movements. This is unbelievable! He's still gentle even if we do this. He always made it feel that they were making love, not the other way around. What woman wouldn't fall for such a man? 'B-Braun!" it moaned his name as it felt itself nearing the peak. He seemed like that was the signal Braun had been waiting for as he quickened his pace, causing her to hold onto the car's roof tightly while biting her lip. With a swift movement, they both reached heaven. She collapsed onto Braun's lap, burying her head in his robust chest. They both gasped for air, their bodies glistening with sweat. She felt Braun's soft kiss on her head and felt Braun's hands wrap around her waist. 'I love you, wife," it said. 'I love you too, hubby," she said without hesitation. Briela wouldn't hesitate to admit her true feelings for the man anymore. The care and love Braun showed were enough to show how much she cherished the man. ---- Meanwhile, Xander still hadn't left the place Briella left him earlier. He had been drinking, but he wasn't drunk yet. He saw President Braun arrive and immediately take Briella away from him. What's the reason for calling her here? I want to talk and beg her to consider my debt. I didn't ask her to come here to forgive me because I know what I did is unforgivable. It's too late to regret everything because what she said is true. When he planned to play with Briella's feelings, he didn't think it would end up like this. He was complacent about her love for him and didn't think about those things. He was dazzled by the wealth he would gain from her and the beautiful body of Matilda, who was always ready to give him whatever he wanted. Indeed, the saying goes that no one knows what will happen, so if you don't want what you did to others to come back to you, be careful and always think before doing something. He took a deep breath and was about to stand up when he heard the familiar voice he used to love hearing, but now it made him sick to listen to it. 'You're so pathetic, Xander. Do you really hope that Briella will still forgive you?" she said sarcastically. He stood up and didn't bother to look at it. 'Leave me alone, Matilda. We're done, and I don't care about you or whatever you want to do with the child in your womb," he said in a cold voice. Forgive me, child, for you were involved in our worthless evil. I didn't mean to, but I also don't know how to face you when you come out into the world. 'Oh, that thing? I got rid of it the moment you dumped me. Do you know how relieved I was when it was removed from my body?" she said, laughing as if she didn't kill her child. 'You're a monster!" he shouted at her and forced himself to look at her. His eyes burned with anger, and he couldn't accept what she did. Yes, he couldn't bear to see his child born into this world, but he didn't expect Matilda to really do what she said. 'Monster? Ha!" she said and pointed at him. 'If I am a monster, how about you? Are you clean? Holy? Maybe you're forgetting that my conscience is as dark as yours!" she sneered at him. 'I won't stop disturbing Briella's life until I bring her down! I will never be like you, someone who easily gives up! I've endured too much pain, and I won't let it go in vain!" she angrily yelled at him. He wanted to warn the woman that she wouldn't easily defeat Briella, but because he was consumed with anger over what she did to their child, he would let her dream and hope to defeat Briella. 'Just you wait. I'll be rising again and stomping her down!" Matilda said and left him alone there. He glared at her, and even though he couldn't move it, his gaze was still sharp in the direction it went. Good luck with that. --- Chelsey's phone rang, furrowing her brows because it was already ten in the evening. No one should be calling her at this hour. He looked at her phone and frowned when she saw that it wasn't registered on her phone. At first, she hesitated to answer it, but in the end, she had no choice but to answer it because it wouldn't stop calling. 'Hi, this is Chelsey. Please leave a message after the beep," she said. 'Huh? Uhm, hi. This is Luigi. Madam Briella gave me your number. I want to tell you something about Matilda, and she wants me to call—" 'What? Do you have news about where that darn woman is hiding?" she interrupted Luigi. She didn't hear any response from the other line, so she thought it was hung up. When she looked at the monitor of her phone, she saw that the call was still running. 'Hey, are you still there?" she asked. 'You're a hell of a weirdo," she heard him say. 'What? Me a weirdo?" she repeated what he said. He took a deep, frustrated breath and disregarded what was said. 'Where are you right now? Madam Briella has something for you to do and—" 'I heard you earlier. No need to repeat," she interrupted. 'And why are you calling me? Why isn't it Briella talking to me?" she asked in succession. 'President Braun doesn't want to disturb them now, so he asked me to deliver a message to you from Madam Briella," it replied. 'Okay, what is it?" it said. 'Madam Briella says that you need to go to Matilda's PA house and convince him to betray her," he said. 'What?!" it shouted. 'Do you think he'll agree just because I asked him like that?" she said, her eyes widening on the other end of the line. 'Can you stop shouting? Your high-pitched voice is annoying!" he snapped at it. 'Hey! Don't you know that my voice is very rare, and I can sing like Angeline Quinto and Regine Velazquez?" she retorted with a scowl. How arrogant! Just because you're handsome and close to President Braun doesn't mean you can have an attitude! Well, that won't work for me! 'I'm not asking you that, dummy!" he said irritably. 'Anyway, I've already told you Madam Briella's orders. Bye." She was about to say more, but suddenly, he hung up. She tried calling his number again but got a busy tone. She clenched her fist in frustration. What's wrong with that guy acting like he's always PMS-ing? Maybe he doesn't have a partner, so he's so grumpy! She shook the thought off and thought of a way to convince Matilda's blood-related PA. Damn it, how will I sweet-talk him when in our last encounter, I threatened to squash his balls because of his tight grip on me. She sighed heavily and got dressed. There's nothing she can do but see the guy and try. She knows where he lives because she followed him once before to gather evidence of Xander's deception towards Briella. I hope I can convince him. As she exited her apartment, she saw a beige BMW parked in front of her house. She raised an eyebrow as the tall, fair, and handsome Assistant of President Braun stepped out from there. 'Hop in. I'll accompany you to that jerk's house," he said, then returned inside the car. Arrogan brute! He didn't even complete the package deal of being a gentleman! Grr!
