Master's Untamed Wife

Back at the resort, Raelle had already noticed that Shui Xian seemed to be getting calls for the last ten minutes but he kept ignoring all the calls. 

"Work?" 

Shui Xian looked into her eyes and nodded his head.

"Then just take the call," she told him.

Shui Xian wanted to say that he didn't want to but he knew his wife. She would never let him ignore his work. Others had problems that their wives got angry when they talked about work on their dates, his wife... Sigh! She was just differently wired. Yes, he should just keep reminding himself.

"I'll just go get you something to drink, you can take the call," Raelle even chose to give him privacy to allow him to concentrate on important matters. 

Raelle looked around, not knowing what to buy and where exactly to even buy it?

At this moment, her capable bodyguard came over and whispered, "Missy, there is a café on the second floor. Maybe you can check their menu?"

Raelle nodded, "Okay! Let's go then." She took the elevator and went to the second floor. She found the café, Anna spoke of and entered it. But once she stood before the cash counter to order, she paused.

"Hello, what would you like to order?" asked the girl who manned the cash counter. 

Raelle looked at the screen that displayed their menu and went quiet. Usually, she would always order the very same thing to drink but her husband had forbidden her from ordering the same coffee every single time. He wanted her to try different things and in this case, different flavors. Not because he wanted her to change but simply because he wanted her to experience everything around her.

She randomly pointed at a drink on the screen and said, "This! I want this." Then she pointed the drink right beside it and added, "And this one too."

"One Banana milk coffee and one Creamy iced coffee, that's all?" asked the girl on the cash counter keeping her polite smile on.

Raelle nodded her head, "Yes, that's all."

"How would you like to pay? Cash, card, or phone?" asked the girl.

"Card," said Raelle and pulled out her Diamond card that made even the girl's eyes widen in surprise a little. She had just started her summer vacation and picked up this job. Who knew she'd be seeing this kind of a card in the first week of her job? How strange were these wealthy people?

Raelle received her receipt and her credit card back as she heard the girl say, "Please wait for a moment. Your order will be ready soon."

"Okay," said Raelle and found an empty seat to sit down to wait. 

"Xiaoxiao, don't run so fast!"

Raelle could hear the voice of a woman calling out a little kid. As for why she knew it was a kid without seeing? Because she could also hear the sound of giggles of a naughty kid who kept running in the café giving his mother a headache.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, the kid ran into someone and fell on his butt. He pouted before started wailing. Raelle had to zone out everything around her to not let that loud wailing get to her head. From the moment of her second kidnapping, she didn't like crying kids. She had seen plenty of those, tied together with her in that cage. She didn't want to see anymore.

"Oh, I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!" the kid's mother was saying to the woman whom her son had bumped into. The woman's dress was stained with oil since the kid's hands were stained. The mother picked up her son but hit him saying, "Didn't I tell you not to run around? Look what happened now!"

The woman first stood where she was before she crouched down and stopped that mother from hitting her son. She smiled comfortingly at her and said, "It's okay. You don't have to hit him." She held the shoulders of the kid and made him look at her, "Are you hurt?"

The kid looked at her kind smile and his wailing turned into sobs. He sniffled and shook his head, "It doesn't hurt."

  "It might not hurt this time but you can't be certain about the future." She rubbed his fluffy head and added, "Don't run around again. And listen to your mom."

The kid couldn't help but listen to the woman and even nod his head obediently. Even his mother was surprised by this turn of events. 

The mother was even more ashamed and she said, "How about I pay for dry cleaning?" Then she frowned, "But this stain might not go away even after dry cleaning."

"Don't worry about it," said the woman. "It isn't that expensive."

The mother choked when she heard that. As a woman, how could she not know the value of the dress? It was from the limited collection of an international brand. Money was not enough to buy it. But the kind woman didn't take it to heart. 

Raelle had watched all of this from where she sat. She wasn't that far, to begin with so she heard their interaction as well. Her eyes lingered on the face of that woman before she went to collect her drinks.

The woman also stood before the counter to order and the cashier girl was saying, "Miss, this is your sixth coffee. Are you sure you should be having this much?"

"Oh, it's like fuel to me," said the woman. "I can't seem to operate without it."

The cahsier girl chuckled softly, "You're paying with phone again?"

The woman nodded and scanned the code to pay. She turned and that's when she looked at Raelle who was taking her drinks and turned to leave. Her eyes narrowed in thought once she looked at Raelle's face and she paused.

"President Raelle?" she called out uncertainly.

Raelle stopped to look at her and replied, "Yes?"

The woman was stunned once Raelle's clear but blank eyes stared straight into her own.
