"Yes, I finally have a suit to wear with this jewelry. Ellard must not have known that this jewelry belonged to Anella. Even if he finds out, he won't be able to take it out of my hands again, as long as I'm alive."
Lilith took out a ring and pendant with an extremely rare pink gem that belonged to Anella. Lilith accidentally steals it from Anella's closet along with her letters, as Ellard takes it to the house she left with Anella first to retrieve some valuables, a few weeks after killing Anella.
Jewelry with pink and gold gems worth three hundred and forty-five billion was spared from scrutiny. Lilith did not waste the opportunity, and immediately secured it.
"I'll wear this dress and jewelry at the meeting with Arella tomorrow. He will not demean me anymore. It's good that he humbled me and wanted to snatch my husband."
Just imagining it, Lilith was already laughing in satisfaction. He can't wait to have a meeting with Arella Andzelika. Ellard's mistress doesn't even remember the renovation of her abandoned cake shop.
"But where did Ellard go this early in the morning? Though I've prepared his favorite honey-baked turkey."
Lillith's fingers repeatedly pressed the call button in the same name. But there is no answer.
"He didn't go to breakfast with Arella, did he? Just be careful if she turns out to be with that woman. I must have finished him off" lilith grumbled.
Meanwhile in a different place, Ellard sat speechless in his old car. The frown on his forehead had already disappeared and changed with a smile.
"Aaah, thank goodness. The problem of the store renovation fund and all its financial statements has been resolved. I can look at Arella's face now" the man told himself. "But money this time Lilith can't know" he murmured again.
Rprn ... Rprn ...
Ellard's HP rang. Someone called. Ellard smiled faintly at him
"Hm, I just talked about it. He's the one who called first."
"Hello, Ellard."
"What's up, La. It's still early morning. Tumben you called me? Even though the sun had just risen," said Ellard with a smile on his face.
"You call me. Last afternoon, who picked up my phone, your wife, anyway?" arella said with a voice-dyeing.
"Em, I'm taking a shower. Sorry, yes," replied Ellard.
"Here, you liar crocodile. Though Lilith said she was just relaxing in the room, really," Arella sneered in annoyance. "But how dare he pick up my phone now, huh? Is the shop renovation over?" arella was confused
"So you called me because of kangen?" ask Ellard frngan bravely.
"Ih, what the hell? No need for ge'er. I just want to make sure you meet, really. I'm sorry that last night I suddenly canceled our meeting" Arella said in a low, regretful tone.
"Yes, it's okay. I understand, really. You are busy, your clients are many, too" replied Ellard understandingly.
"Thank God you're not angry. I plan to make sure you have breakfast together. But your wife must have cooked, right?" arella said with a small laugh.
"Ah, it's this morning I'm free ..."
"I'll take you to ten o'clock at the cafe near my apartment. We discussed the work issue. There are a few hospitality issues that we have to address" Arella said professionally. He deliberately cut off Ellard's unfinished speech.
"Hm, okay. So Lilith's coming, too, right?" ellard said objection.
"Yes, dong. Because our discussion this time is much more. I also brought my assistant, really," replied Arella.
"Yes already. We'll meet there at ten" Ellard replied again.
"Don't be sad, dong. I will definitely make time for the two of us, as we planned our vacation yesterday," Arella said in a spoiled mende*sa*h voice.
"Yes, I understand, really. Just relax. We must indeed separate personal affairs and work," replies Ellard smart-ass, even though his heart is blooming to hear Arella's words.
"Hey, I was suddenly curious. What about the renovation of the shop? When can we launch? I've been impatient to invite my fellow artists, nih," said Arella enthusiastically.
"To - Store safe, really. The renovation goes on. Later when it's over, I'll tell you, "Ellard replied stammering with nervousness.
"Oh yeah? The result will be great, right? I can't wait to see it, '" fishing rod Arella.
"Hahaha, if now don't come here first. Because there's still a lot of dust" Ellard replied quickly. She doesn't want Arella to know her lies.
"Alright, I leave the store business to you. "But can I see the financial statements? Because I also have to report to the finance department at the company," Arella pinta.
"I'm waiting, yeah. See you at ten" Arella said, then hung up.
"Flame, I can finally breathe. Now I have to hurry home and get ready" he murmured.
...*** ...
"Do you really want to wear that dress and jewelry?"
Ellard protested against his wife's overly fancy and conspicuous attire. The two had just exited the apartment room, and set foot into the elevator.
"Yes, why?" reply Lilith.
The petite woman wore an A-line dress along the knee, and an off shoulder-style top showing her level neck and tiny shoulders. The pink dress was decorated with fine brocade on the part of her skirt.
In line with the color of her dress, Lilith used Arella's pink ring and pendant. Her hair is shoulder-length in a low bun with sweet butterfly flops.
"Well, what will Arella say? He must have suspected that we were using the money for the renovation of the store" Ellard said.
"So you're saying I don't fit this? I have to wear my moustache like I used to? Arella and I are in the same class?" lilith grumbled in annoyance. Not only was she forbidden from wearing good clothes, she was also compared to Arella.
Ting! Elevator door opens. Ellard stepped out of the elevator. But he kept his wife from staying inside.
"That's not what I mean, baby. But this is just an ordinary meeting. Your clothes are too much" Ellard said. "You still have enough time to change clothes" he added.
"What's? I was tired of dressing up an hour ago. But you told me to change my clothes? I don't think it's too much, really," Lilith replied as she barged out of the elevator.
"I agree. Lilith looks beautiful, really."
A woman with a classic little black dress combined with matching colored flat shoes. Its very simple appearance actually makes Arella look elegant and luxurious. His hair was black and long, he let it unravel.
"Well, that's a very rare pink diamond, right? Great you can have it," praised Arella while tucking her long hair behind her ears. "Huh, I had expected that my belongings would change hands with him" he murmured inwardly.
"Oh, thank you -"
Lilith silenced her mouth, before finishing her sentence. His eyes widened when he saw Arella wearing the World's Most Expensive Earrings, Memory of Autumn Leaves & Dream of Autumn Leaves in both ears.
These earrings are decorated with light blue diamonds and super rare peach diamonds. These earrings are only owned by a few people in the world, because the price reaches eight hundred and sixty billion.
"Ck! It sucks! Why would she wear more expensive jewelry than me?" lilith in the Heart. She did not pay attention to her already trembling and deathly pale husband.
"A-arella's? Why are you here? Didn't we make an appointment at the cafe near your apartment?" ellard asked with a wry smile on his face.
"Hm, I'm really curious about the process of renovating the store. So I came here to see it. Then I heard you guys were living in this apartment. So I took the initiative to wait for you here, too" Arella replied with a smile.
"O-oh, gi-tu. About the renovation ..." Ellard can't make up a lie anymore. Arella must have seen a cake shop that has not been touched at all. Though from the financial statements sent earlier, the cost of building renovation has run half of the planning.
"Hmm, I get it, really. You must have made the financial plan very carefully, before its implementation, right? Though I have prepared a mask to avoid fine dust, you know," said Arella with a tone of satire.
"So, we can go now, right? I will have a meeting with other investors later in the day," Arella asked as if she did not care so much about the condition of the store.
"Yes, right. Let's go now" Lilith asked. "But where did you park the car? I don't see it. We can't take you away together. Because our car's only two people."
Lilith pointed to the luxurious sports car parked in the apartment courtyard, with her overbearing style. "This time he won't be able to beat me, will he?" murmured haughtily.
Ellard limp at Lilith's attitude that was showing off treasure. "Capture me. Arella must know, where the money she gave went," she thought resignedly.
"You guys just calm down. Railo and I also brought our own car. Railo's waiting for me in the car." Arella pointed to a vanta black luxury sedan, which was parked under a shady tree. Right next to Ellard and Lilith's car.
"God! I-it's an eleven billion luxury car that has to be specially ordered before buying it, right?" Lilith and Ellard were stunned to see him.
"Damn! Why am I always the number two woman, anyway? It was Anella, now it's Arella Andzelika. Is she the reincarnation of Anella?"
Lilith who lost competitiveness with Arella was only able to grumble inwardly. While Arella smiled cynically celebrating her victory from the affair of the husband.
