Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

The next day, Lisa was working again as usual. Oscar only had time to stop by his office to hand over the files that Lisa had to take care of and then went back to the insurance company.

That afternoon, in the middle of work, Lisa's cell phone rang. The woman reached for her cell phone and squinted. It was a call from a private number. Lisa didn't know who was calling her using a private number. But she still picked up the call with a little hesitation.

"Good morning, Lisa Soewandi here. Can I help you?" Lisa greeted.

"Oh, I talked to sister Lisa myself. My name is Clara Gunawan, I happen to be in the lobby of the Petersson Communication company. Would you mind having a chat for a while downstairs?"

Lisa's heart was suddenly beating fast. Who was the suspicious woman behind this call?

She squeezed her cell phone tightly and tried to remember the name of the woman who had called her. Her name sounded familiar to her ears. It seemed that her mother-in-law had mentioned the woman's name.

Lisa's memory returned to a week ago, when Greta, her mother-in-law came to Oscar's house and suddenly confronted Lisa for no reason. The middle-aged woman mentioned the name "Clara" when she was fighting with Oscar in the living room that night.

Lisa's eyes immediately widened. She was sure, the one who called her just now was the same Clara whom Greta mentioned that night. Lisa suspected that Clara was Oscar's mistress.

But she didn't expect that this woman named Clara called her suddenly. Lisa bit her lip, trying to calm down and keep her anger under control. But she was still in the canon. If she wasn't careful about her personal relationship with Oscar, she would be doomed. Every eye in the office would glance at Lisa with disgust and give her a condescending look. Even worse, she would lose her job at Petersson Communication!

"What business do you have with me?" Lisa asked nervously. Her voice sounded trembling. She was increasingly worried about the fate of her marriage.

The woman on the other side did not sound rushed. Her voice was soft as she softly said, "Yes, Miss Lisa, I want to talk to you. It's about Oscar. If you don't feel like talking in the lobby, let's have a chat at the Socialite cafe near your office!"

Lisa's heart felt like it was being torn apart. She never thought she would be contacted by Oscar's ex or rather his suspected mistress today. "What if you just talk right here, on the phone?"

"Oh no no, I want you to know my identity as Oscar's girlfriend. I want to talk about my relationship with Oscar. If you don't want to meet at the cafe, I don't mind coming to your room. But do you think that would be wise? I know you and Oscar work for the same company. If employees and other employees know this, are you able to cover it up from your co-workers?" Clara explained calmly.

Lisa was getting short of breath. She began to lose her temper, eager to meet the woman from across the phone and smack her face.

"Hey bastard, you dare threaten me!?" Lisa snapped at Clara.

The woman on the other hand was really presumptuous! Who did she think she was that she dared to threaten Lisa and tell her to meet her?

"Lisa, I didn't mean to threaten you. I just want us to meet and talk about facts. Thank you for looking after Oscar while I am away. Now I'm back and we need to meet and chat like adults."

The woman's voice was very soft and calm. Lisa's pride fell just by hearing her voice! Just from her voice, Lisa thought that Clara must be extraordinarily beautiful. She was very sure of that guess.

"Listen bitch, I'm Oscar's legal wife! Please stay away from Oscar and don't bother me. My relationship with Oscar has nothing to do with you!"

Even though Lisa couldn't see Clara's face, she was sure the woman on the other side of the phone was laughing wickedly with a mocking and condescending expression.

"Lisa, I've been in love with Oscar for 5 years. I understand all of his hobbies. I even know his favorite sex position. Are you absolutely sure Oscar married you because he loves you?" Clara snarled in a soft, calm voice.

The sentence that Clara just said pierced Lisa's heart. Her self-confidence instantly collapsed. That bastard was so provocative!

Lisa's memory returned to the week ago, when Greta clashed with Oscar. The name Clara was mentioned several times. Even though her mother-in-law and her husband spoke in a foreign language at that time, Lisa could see Oscar's face changed immediately when Clara's name was mentioned. It seemed that the relationship between Clara and Oscar had stopped because of something that Lisa didn't understand.

Even though she had never met Clara face to face, the conversation between the two sounded like a fierce argument. Clara's words and her soft, calm voice seemed to overpower Lisa's pride. Lisa's patience was over, if she met Clara at the cafe, she was sure she would punch her in the face!

"Okay, if that's what you want, bastard, I'll give you what you want!" Lisa snapped irritably. She pounded her desk hard.

"Hehe, I know you are a smart person and you would not do anything reckless to protect your career at Oscar's company! I'll see you at the Socialite cade. I'll wait after you finish work," Clara said softly and arrogantly.

Lisa hung up the call and threw her cellphone on the table. She couldn't wait to get Clara into a scuffle.

For a moment, she thought Karina used to be the most annoying woman ever. She didn't expect that Clara would be worse than Karina. According to her, Karina was nothing compared to Clara!

Lisa paused for a moment and calmed down. She took a deep breath and exhaled. She grabbed her water bottle and took a quick sip. She lifted her head up, stared at the ceiling of the president's room as she leaned on the back of the chair.

"Bitch! How could she trample over my confidence just from her calm and gentle way of speaking!?" She said furiously. "Fine, I can't lose to that dumbass Clara and I have to meet her after work! Who the hell does she think she is to disturb my relationship with Oscar!?"

A few minutes passed, Lisa went down to the ground floor cafeteria. It was already past the break time but she was desperate to buy a sweet treat and a glass of orange juice to calm her chaotic mind.

"Just watch out, Clara.. If you dare to do anything with me and my husband, don't think you can escape here alive!" Lisa snarled in her mind.
