The Devil's Dribble Husband

Chapter 8. Suspicious

"It's nice to have dinner together, but why does my heart feel like something's weird, huh?"

Anella sat in front of a dining table full of sumptuous dishes. This was the first time Ellard had treated her at such an expensive venue, since their four-year marriage. Usually Ellard only invited him to eat at street food stalls or food trucks, even on his birthday.

But Anella is not a demanding woman. Since long ago he always received everything given by Ellard, even though only dinner in a very simple place.

Tonight was quite different than usual. Ellard asked her to wear a very pretty black dress, with elegant makeup. Ellard's service tonight is also very special compared to the usual days. The food he ordered, also came from premium ingredients at a high price.

What the hell is it? Why is Anella suspicious of her husband's attitude?

"By the way, it's dinner time, but it's really quiet, huh?"

Anella looked around the room. Make sure that he's not alone with Ellard there. But all you find are the servants on duty.

"Rather than a crowded place like a food truck, isn't this quiet place much more convenient?" said Ellard while handing over the stew lamb to Anella.

"Yes every once in a while I'm also happy to be invited to a place like this" Anella replied with a wide-flowing smile on her face.

"What if I ask the waiter to take out desserts now?" ellard's proposal after gulping down his drink.

"Hm? But I'm full" Anella replied.

"I heard the desserts here are so delicious. Try it, just a little taste," Ellard's half-urgent pinta.

"May, deh," said Anella relented.

Moments later, a waiter brought Ellard's desserts out.

"Wow! Her desserts are beautiful! So dear to be eaten," Anella commented when she saw the beautiful cake with light green color of her favorite.

The cake was decorated like a small garden full of grass and flowers, as well as a rabbit playing on it.

"Don't be happy just yet. There are still other surprises in this cake" Ellard said. The man lifted an imitation tree, and took out a glittering object inside the cake.

"Eh? The ring?" murmured Anella couldn't believe it. Since when did her husband give such an expensive gift?

"Yes. Is it your time that can give me a gift? I can too, dong. Here I wear it." Ellard put the diamond ring on his wife's ring finger.

"Duh, I think I'm fat, deh. The ring felt narrow in my hand. Though you must have chosen the best for me," Anella said.

"It's okay, baby. You're a little fat and you're still pretty, too" said Ellard, peeping at his wife's cheek.

"Are you preparing this all by yourself?" anella asked with a face.

"Yes sure, dong. It's all special for you, baby," Ellard said. "Consider this last happiness of yours, before your life ends today" Ellard continued.

"Oh my God, I hope this attitude is really sincere" Anella prayed in her heart.

Ellard secretly typed a message through her phone. "Lilith, you're ready for our plan, right?" inscribed.

"Of course I'm ready. I've also hired people here to shut up" Lilith reported.

"Sip, wait for my next command. Anellla's still not asleep" Ellard replied.

"Well, why do I feel so sleepy, huh? I feel like there's something weird about eating that cake? Ah, if you remember Ellard also did not eat the cake since then," thought Anella suspicious.

Anella repeatedly yawns. The sleepiness really cannot be restrained.

"I think I should tell somebody that I'm here with Ellard. There must be a witness if I'm with him right now." His head thought hard to seek help, without Ellard's suspicion.

"Why don't I have a signal? How do I contact someone?" anella was confused.

"Why baby?" asked Ellard suspiciously.

"Oh, nothing, really. I think I forgot to charge my HP" Anella said. The tail of his eyes glanced at his cellphone which still had no signal.

"Oh, my head is getting heavier. I have to find another way," thought Anella, beginning to fret.

The woman asked permission to go to the toilet. He was trying to find a phone to ask for help. Anella also ordered coffee to relieve her drowsiness.

"Jeez, Anella. What are you doing again, anyway? Why drink coffee here? Coffee is not good for women who are preparing for pregnancy."

Ellard snatches the coffee cup held by Anella. The man was originally about to stalk Floretta, and smother her while the woman was in the bathroom. But he finds Anella drinking a cup of coffee. If left unchecked this can foil the plan that he has neatly arranged.

"Oh, baby. Sorry I'm so sleepy. I think a few sips of coffee can hold my eyes until we get home" Anella replied with her innocent face.

"I changed my mind, baby. I just want to join the tube baby program" Anella said, raising her eyebrows. He put his foot on their table earlier.

"Why suddenly? Isn't the tube baby program expensive and the success rate is only fifty percent?" said Ellard who followed Anella's footsteps in the back.

"Well, what do you think, dong? I can't get pregnant anymore, because you've had a vasectomy" Anella said without putting on an emotional face. In his heart, it is actually raging in the moment.

"W-what? What kind of shit is that?"

Ellard's entire body shook violently. His chest was hunting and his emotions were peaking, as the wife already knew his lie.

"Why aren't you being honest with me, baby? I will support your every decision. You must have your own reasons for doing that, right?"

Instead of being angry, Anella showed her affection and encouragement to her husband.

"Quick say! Where did you know that?"

Ellard's whole sweet attitude towards Anella disappeared instantly, and changed into a clash. But Anella was still undaunted to dismantle the man's rot in an elegant manner.

"I found this antibiotic among a pile of clothes, looking for your tie yesterday."

Anella put a plastic bag out of the hospital, containing several strips of antibiotics on the table.

"I guess you often forget to drink. If you tell me, I can remind you to drink it regularly" continued Anella.

His eyes glanced towards the entrance. He deliberately invited Ellard to talk at length, while waiting for someone to come to help him.

While Ellard can not dwell anymore, in the plastic bag is clearly written his name and age.

"You misunderstood, Anella. Antibiotics are not ... "

"Oh yes, I also took a tube baby program brooch from Elizabeth hospital and several other hospitals. But I made up my mind, after you agreed," Anella said, cutting off the husband's sentence.

"So far as what are you investigating, Anella? What do you know?" asked Ellard with a fiery nata.

"Hm? Is there anything else you're hiding?" Anella asked back.

"Damn it! I was trapped twice. I can't wait to finish his life, '" Ellard said in his heart.
