My Belittled Husband Is A Billionaire

Winter’s POV

“Winter? Are you alright? Why do you look so down today? Did something wrong happen?” asked Haley as soon as she saw me step out of my car.

I looked at her with a blank expression on my face. “Let’s just finish filming already, okay? I badly want to take some rest now.”

“If you don’t feel alright, then we can film next time.”

“No, I badly need to finish this movie. I don’t want to see Ian’s face anymore.”

Haley heaved a sigh and made me sit on a bench. “Fine. But tell me what your problem is.”

“Matthew.”

“Oh, your husband?”

“He told me he doesn’t like me and that he won’t change his mind no matter what happens.”

Her eyes widened in surprise. “W-What?! Did he really say that?!”

“He did, even though I already told him not to say those kinds of things to me yet.”

“Oh, poor you. That’s so brave of him to turn down Winter Wesley. Does he even know how many men are fighting for your attention?”

I wiped the tears from my eyes. “He told me I don’t deserve someone like him.”

“So, what are you going to do now? Are you going to give up already? Are you going to stop chasing after him?”

“Of course, not. There is no way I would give up so easily.”

“Oh, so you’re still planning to seduce him?”

“If there is someone who’s going to lose here, it’s not me.”

Haley smiled at me. “I knew it. You won’t really stop doing everything until you get him, huh? Is that how madly in love you are with Matthew?”

“He was the one who made me fall in love with him, anyway? It’s his responsibility to take charge and love me back.”

“Of course. No one can ever break Winter Wesley’s heart.”

I don’t even know why what Matthew did or what he made me eat for me to be like this. Maybe this is just my nature, but I really don’t want to be rejected by him.

I really really really want to make him mine.

“Where’s Matthew?” I asked the maids as soon as I arrived at the mansion.

“Sir Matthew just left a while ago, Miss Winter.”

“Huh? Where did he go?”

“Miss Winter!”

Elisse rushed toward me and gave me a hug. Giving me a welcome hug has become her hobby ever since we became close together. That actually makes me feel better, especially whenever I am tired from filming all day.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“Hello there. Do you know where your brother went?” I asked her as we both moved away from each other.

“He said it’s an important trip, Miss Winter.”

My brows furrowed. “An important trip? What trip is that? He didn’t even tell me.”

Elisse just stared at me, confusingly. It was obvious that Matthew didn’t tell her anything about the place he went to and the reason behind that.

“Alright, I’ll just change my clothes upstairs, then we’ll have our dinner, okay?”

“Okay!”

As soon as I stepped inside my room, I took my phone out of my bag and dialed grandpa’s number. It took him a while before answering the call. It was already night, for sure he was getting ready to bed.

“My dear grandchild, why did you call?”

“Grandpa, do you know where Matthew went? He was not here in our house when I arrived.” I directly asked him. He is the only one Matthew talks to and his boss, so he’s most probably the knows about Matthew’s business trip.

“Oh, he probably started his business trip already. He needs to do that for our company. He is so hands-on in our company matters, you know.”

“Without even telling me?”

Grandpa paused for a moment. “He probably forgot to tell you about it. Maybe he’ll call you later to inform you. For sure he was too focused about work that he forgot.”

“Maybe he already escaped after what I told him.”

“Winter, dear, for sure he won’t do that.”

“Grandpa, tell me where did he go.”

Grandpa hesitated at first, but he had no choice but to give me the address of the place where Matthew would stay at.

“Elisse, do you want to go with me?”

“Huh? Where?”

“We’re going to follow your brother,” I said with a smile on my face.

Her eyes widened. “F-Follow him? But why?”

“Because he might meet with some other woman.”

“I want to go with you, Miss Winter, but I still have to go to school,” she said while pouting.

“Alright. But will it be okay with you to be left here with the maids?”

Elisse nodded her head enthusiastically. “Yes. I will wait for you and brother to come back.”

“That’s my girl. Don’t worry, we’re going to buy toys for you.”

She shook her head. “I already have so many toys inside my room, Miss Winter. I just want to see you and brother together.”

Themis’ POV

“Brother, where are you going?” Elisse asked me as soon as she saw me walking down the stairs, bringing my luggage with me.

I put my luggage down before looking at her. “I’m going on a business trip. I’ll be back after a week, so stay here with Winter, okay? Be a good girl.”

“Yes, brother. Take care!”

I patted her head, then I already started walking outside.

Mr. Wesley asked me to go on a business trip, not just because the company needs it, but also to be away from Winter for a while. After saying those things to her, for sure she wouldn’t want to see me. I also want her to have some time to think and realize that she doesn’t really like me.

Also, I would be meeting someone related to the plan I am doing.

I don’t really have time to waste for some unnecessary things. Being away from that mansion would help me focus on what I am supposed to do.
