My Belittled Husband Is A Billionaire

Winter’s POV

In the end, I just wore my yellow sundress as I stepped out of the bathroom. I saw Matthew standing by the terrace while talking to someone over the phone.

I wonder who he is talking to.

Out of curiosity, I decided to walk near him. I hid myself behind the curtains while looking at him.

“Yes… We’re already here. She’s just taking a bath, then later on we would walk by the beach… Right. Yes… That’s good then… Just inform me if you get some important information…”

Information, huh? So, he’s probably talking to his accomplice. And now, he’s reporting to his boss about what we are doing.

Just good. I guess I would be able to gather some information while we’re here.

When I noticed that he was about to hang up the phone already, I immediately went back to the bedroom and pretend I was drying my hair.

“Oh, you’re finally done.”

I smiled at him. “Yeah. You can go and take a bath now.”

“Sure. Just wait here for me, I’ll he quick.”

“Okay.”

As soon as Matthew went inside the bathroom to take a bath, I roamed my eyes around the room to find his phone. But then I wasn’t able to find it, maybe he brought it with him inside the bathroom so I wouldn’t be able to know who he was talking to a while ago.

I started rummaging through the drawers and inside the bag he brought with him, but then still, I didn’t find anything.

I was about to continue finding any evidence, but then the bathroom door went open, which made me immediately stood up.

“A-Are you done now?” I asked.

He nodded his head. “Yes. Would you like to eat first?”

“I guess that’s fine with me.”

Damn it. He almost caught me.

We walked outside to find a restaurant, until we found the one with an open ceiling and glass walls, giving us the perfect view of the sun that was about to set.

“It’s beautiful here, isn’t it?” he suddenly asked me.

“Yep. You know what? I just noticed, you really love nature, don’t you? I mean, you love unwinding and being sentimental.”

He laughed. “You noticed that? Well, yeah. I’ve always loved to live in a place with great nature. It’s mainly because our parents used to bring us to places with such scenic views and incredible nature.”All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

“Our parents never brought me to a beautiful place, my grandpa always did. By the way, you just said ‘us’, do you have siblings?”

“H-Huh? No, I’m an only child. Me and my dad, I mean.”

I nodded my head, pretending not to be suspiscious.

“I see.”

After having our dinner, Matthew asked me to walk by the beach. The sun was already out, but the moon brightened up the whole place. Also, there were vendors selling some souvenirs and street foods.

“Winter.”

“Huh?”

“I’d like to ask you something.”

We continue walking as we talked.

“What is it?”

“Do you… have someone you like?”

That made me stop walking. Matthew also stopped and faced me. I looked at him. “Why are you asking me that?”

“Nothing. It’s because if there is, then I’ll support you. After all, I knew from the start that you don’t agree in this marriage. I know you don’t really know me, but I can be your friend if you want me to. If you like someone else, then tell me and I will support you with all my heart.”

“You’re right. I never agreed in this marriage. But that doesn’t mean I won’t like it forever. You know, someone can actually fall in love with someone even in such a short period of time.”

He then smiled. “Does that mean you’re already in love with me?”

“What if I am? Are you willing to catch me?”

He stared right into my eyes. We weren’t even talking, but it was as if everything around us stopped for a while. It was only me and him.

Then his phone started ringing.

“I’m sorry, I’ll just answer this one.”

“Oh, alright.”

He walked away a bit from me to answer the call while I was just standing there, watching the moon and the stars reflecting on the sea. Then I glanced at Matthew again, and I saw a familiar face.

It was Winston.

My first love, and the only man I have ever loved in my whole life.

For a moment, I just stared at Matthew whom I saw as Winston. His stature, and the way he smiles, they were really alike.

But of course, they definitely are different people. Winston is the kindest man I’ve ever known, while this Matthew is a hideous man who only wants the wealth of my family.

That is why I won’t let him succeed. If making him fall in love with me is the only way to know his dirty plans, then I wouldn’t hesitate to do it.

“I’m sorry. An employee in our company called.”

“It’s alright. By the way, is there a bar or a club here? I actually want to drink and dance.”

He thought for a while. “I think there is. And I think you don’t also have to worry, since people there are locals here.”

“That’s good. And if there are people who knows me, I have my beach hat anyway so I could hide myself from them. Shall we go there now?”

“Alright. Let’s go.” he said, then we started walking already.

I couldn’t help but smile while thinking about my next plan. I will get him drunk, then I will force him to tell me who he really is. Or maybe when he’s already asleep, I would be able to look through his phone.

I am smarter than you, Matthew. If you think you can take advantage of me and use me to succeed with your plan, then you are wrong. You’re just messing with the wrong one.
