Mr. President You Are The Daddy Of My Triplets novel Chapter 137

Chapter 137: 137- She Was Wrong

Rafael glanced at the passenger seat where she was seated and was extremely quiet. She was in a good mood earlier when they came to the office.

He was waiting for her in the parking lot when he received her call, "I’m standing outside the building. Can you come and pick me up?"

"On it, princess," when she was getting in the car, her friend was standing there at some distance waiting for her car.

It had hardly taken her thirty minutes to come out of the building.

"Are you worried about something?" He asked her, keeping his eyes ahead on the road. The traffic was slowly increasing due to the office timings.

When she didn’t reply, he threw a concerned glance at her. She was still looking outside the window. Rafael didn’t fail to notice that her shoulders seemed tensed.

"Marissa!" he called her name, and she still didn’t move. He reached over and held her hand lying on her lap and squeezed it.

"Hey!"

Marissa almost jumped in her place and twisted in her seat to face him.

"Yes?" there was a wildness in her eyes like she was too busy in thinking something deep and someone woke her up.

"I’m sorry. Didn’t mean to scare you," he pulled his hand to place it back on the steering wheel.

"It’s OK. You were saying something?" he saw her pulling the elastic band from her hair and giving her hair a hard shake until the locks fell over her shoulders.

"What are you thinking?"

"Nothing," she tried to smile, "just something related to work," She kept fixing her hair to tie it again into a messy bun.

Rafael didn’t seem convinced. The smile didn’t reach her eyes like it used to.

"Why did you send Sophie upstairs?" she tried to change the topic in an attempt to move his focus to something else other than her.

"Oh, that..." he smiled, "Joseph stayed last night in the hotel penthouse. I just wanted them to meet," he turned his face to look at her and found confusion there, "she met him when she visited White Palace and ... I somewhat knew that the man was Joseph..."

"Great!" she folded her arms on her chest and gave him a tightlipped smile, "And here I thought that maybe... you are interested in spending time with me."

The last part was said in such a low whisper that Rafael thought he heard her wrong.

"Sorry?"

"Nothing. Forget it," she was again looking out of the window.

Rafael pulled in a long breath. For once he was tempted to park the car aside and ask her what the issue was. Was she mad at him?

But she might take it the wrong way.

"Marissa!"

"Hmm?"

"Did something happen at the office?"

"Hmm?"

"I. Asked. Did. Something. Happened. At. The. Office."

He spoke every word very slowly, with great patience.

"Nothing happened at the office," she stated and got busy with sightseeing.

Rafael wasn’t liking this silence. What was the problem?

"Do you want to stay somewhere for a while and have coffee?" he tried to talk to her, but she just shook her head.

"No. Already had it with Sophie," the smile was again a forced one. Not the genuine one, "Plus we need to reach there on time. Sophie is planning to go out of Kanderton City to visit Flint’s sister. Flint will also accompany her."

Rafael nodded thoughtfully, "When will they return? Evening? Late night?" she could detect concern in his voice.

"They are planning to stay there for two to three days,"

"Woah. Hold it there. And you’ll be all alone, Marissa? How will you and the kids stay..."

"There is no explanation for cheating, Marissa. Now I understand...why he was giving you these huge favors in office. Kate was so right. How wrong I thought of her. She was right all along. Now I understand how you got that position."

"Delinda. I thought we were friends,"

"Not anymore. I can never be friends with a home wrecker, Marissa. Don’t you ever try to talk to me."
