Chapter 124: Giving Into Desire
Tony pecked her lips with a calm smile. "Why are you panicking? Didn’t you lock the door?" he asked fixing her hair.
"But..." Marcella gulped looking at the door.
"Get up and fix yourself, Birdie," he slapped her butt.
Rubbing her stinging backside, Marcella stood up. She quickly pulled out her mirror and fixed herself. Tony walked to the door running his fingers through his hair and fixing his shirt.
"Is it lunchtime already?" he asked opening the door. He was so casual. He did not sound nervous at all. Marcella would have thought he didn’t care about it if he wasn’t careful in covering her from whoever was outside.
"You all can go have lunch. I’ll take my wife to a fancy place uptown," Tony said.
There was a loud cheering sound outside and Stella asked Tony to bring them all to that fancy place.
"No!" Tony said plainly and closed the door.
The sound outside died down.
Marcella quickly fixed herself up. If her husband wants to treat her to a nice lunch, why would she not accept it? She was happy.
They went to lunch and after handling some other arrangements for their wedding party, Tony returned to his office and Marcella returned home.
Days passed. They gave their invitations to many influential people in the city. Marcella was surprised to learn of the connections Tony had with many elites. They all seemed to have an idea of who he married. Some were eager to talk to her, others looked at her with skeptical amusement. She didn’t care about what others thought of her. Tony surrounded her with his protective aura and she held her head high.
