"Uh, sorry, I don't mean to be absurd or presumptuous but... I always feel that living in an ordinary family is not good. There's always trouble, and it will never stop. I always thought that if I were rich, my problems would be easily resolved because I had money and power,

" Lisa explained, trying to straighten her question which offended Oscar a little.

The man relaxed again, his eyebrows no longer knitted together like before. He returned to struggling with his laptop.

"I mean, I'm very lucky that fate has brought us together,

" Lisa added, hoping the man would speak up about the problems he was hiding.

But still Oscar ignored her. He was just silent, listening to all the stories about Lisa's past indifferently. This made Lisa even more annoyed and embarrassed. It's a shame that she had struggled to tell her past Oscar had never heard of but the man still didn't want to share his problem with her!

"Lisa,

" Oscar said suddenly.

"I'll tell you about my problem, but not today, okay? I'll find the right time to tell the story, I'm sorry,

" he kissed Lisa's forehead then put a sweet smile on his sexy lips.

Hearing Oscar's words just now made Lisa's heart relieved. At least he promised to tell the story even though she wouldn't hear it today.

"It's okay, you can tell me anytime. Long as you're comfortable,

"

***

It's been a week since Oscar had one of his arms broken. Now it was almost healed, so he could go back to the office and work as usual.

This morning, Lisa woke up and Oscar was not there. She picked up a piece of paper stuck to her dressing table and read.

'Dear Lisa, I'm going to the office, okay? Don't forget to eat. Always remember my face if you are bored at home.'

Reading Oscar's inscription made Lisa's heart blossom that morning. Oscar was never cute before, so getting a little letter from his future husband in the morning like that made Lisa blush. Her heart was touched. She wondered how much attention that man wanted to shower her with. Lisa immediately kissed the paper and left a lip trail on its surface.

Today, Lisa had no other job but to clean the house and prepare food for herself. Mrs. Rusminah still hadn't returned, so she had nobody to take care of all the housework.

She once told Oscar that she wanted to work again, but the man asked her to work after they were both officially married and then he could find a job for Lisa.

Finishing with house chores, Lisa immediately lay down on the soft sofa in the family room. She turned on the TV, watched dramas until she was bored.

Suddenly, her cell phone rang. Lisa immediately grabbed it and picked up the unknown call.

"Hello?

" Lisa asked suspiciously.

"Good afternoon, this is Clara,

" the caller replied from across.

Hearing the name 'Clara' immediately made Lisa's facial expression sour and lazy. Actually she could have hung up the call, but her curiosity said otherwise.

"What do you want to call me again, huh?

" Lisa asked harshly.

"I just wanted to ask you out and let's talk for a bit, isn't that nice?

" Clara asked in her usual polite manner.

"Hahahahahahah, I'm busy. You hate me after all, what's with the sudden invitation?

" Lisa replied again, her voice sounding irritated.

"Oh my God, are you afraid to meet me? Am I scary as a tiger?

" Clara replied calmly from the other side.

"Huh? You're crazy! We don't have anything to do, anything that was between us has been over for a long time, you bastard. If you want to talk because you are lonely or you want to slander me again, let's just call it here. You're the least person I'd want to hang out with,

" Lisa replied in a triumphant tone.

Hearing Lisa's sharp and rude reply made Clara a little annoyed. She then replied,

"Well if that's what you want, I'll tell you, stay away from Oscar! You two don't get along well together!

"

"Hey, listen to me, you old hag! I don't need someone to tell me to stay away from Oscar. I also don't care if you are his ex-girlfriend or his first love. I also don't care how much Oscar pampered you, Oscar is mine now!

" Lisa replied firmly and confidently.

"There are many things you don't know about Oscar, Lisa. I advise you to leave him for good! You don't know how bad Oscar has been in the past, do you? Didn't you experience it yourself when that man hurt you? I know Oscar better than you!

" Clara snapped from across.

Clara's words just now made Lisa's memory return to her dark past. She remembered that Oscar raped her because the man failed to move on from her. But since he had shown a sincere intention to fix his fault, Lisa had already forgiven him. Lisa believed Oscar intended to repent. She wouldn't be easily fooled by what Clara said just now.

"Umm, do you want me to say

"wow

" huh?

" Lisa replied casually. She smiled mischievously from behind her cellphone.

"Whatever! Anyway I've warned you!

" Clara replied, sounding annoyed when she failed to shake Lisa's confidence.

"Do you think you are holy and honorable? Do you think you can get Oscar back by provoking me? Hah! I'm not a child, Clara. Be smarter if you want to manipulate. Think about it, if Oscar still loves you, why did he even ask me to marry this week?

" Lisa replied casually.

Hearing what Lisa said made Clara's anger burning even more and fiery. Her intention to call Lisa was to destroy her confidence in Oscar so that the woman would leave Oscar for good. That way, Clara could easily get Oscar back so that he would marry her. But it seemed like Lisa was getting more and more difficult to manipulate. She had to rack her brain to severe their faith.

"Hey, you think your love for Oscar is sincere? Never mind, all women only want Oscar's wealth!

"

Lisa was not affected in the slightest, instead she laughed.

"Hah! What am I, do you want to go back to Oscar because you are just desperate for money?

"

"Do you know why Oscar dumped me !? He's such a bastard! Leave that man immediately!

" Clara replied, not wanting to lose.

The statement just now didn't make sense to Lisa. She muttered.

"Hmmm... then, if Oscar is such a bastard... Why do you still stubbornly want to marry him? Why are you still trying to snatch him from me?

"

Her response just now made Clara get helpless. The woman was consumed by her own words.

"Clar, I'm letting you know. Leave everything that had happened in the past. You don't have to bring it up anymore. It's useless! Whether you want to accept it or not, Oscar has left you and now he loves me. Life isn't always beautiful, don't you know?

" Lisa replied. She felt victorious against Clara.

"You bitch! You are really good at running your mouth huh!

" Clara replied fiercely as her heart was burning with jealousy. She was so annoyed that Lisa could hear the sound of her teeth grinding from across.

"Come on, accept it already. You don't have to bother me anymore. Byeeee….

"

Without thinking much, Lisa immediately hung up on the bastard and smiled happily.
