They Say, I'm a Liar

Evelyn's Claim

That afternoon, Ivander unsuccessfully tries to persuade Evelyn to return to their home. Evelyn insists on accompanying Ivander in the office.

Feeling that it would make Qeiza uncomfortable, Ivander preferred to take Evelyn home. Return home to a house that has been stopped by Ivander for a month.

While Qeiza escorted Ivander to the office lobby. “You wait a minute. Let me take Qei up to the room,” Ivander told Evelyn.

“I can go to my own room, Mas. No need to bring. Poor Mba Evelyn waiting by herself.”

“Many people here. There are some important things about the work I have to say. Let Ev wait here alone,” reply Ivander.

“I'm fine waiting here, Qei. Don't be long, Hon,” Evelyn said as she kissed Ivander's cheek. The man only replied to her with a faint smile.

Like the usual days— after they married— Ivander clasped Qeiza's fingers and walked hand in hand towards their study.

“Sorry about the ones in the restaurant,” Ivander said as soon as they were in the elevator.

“Sorry about what, Mas. Nothing was wrong as long as we were at the restaurant earlier.”

“Activity Ev earlier. He shouldn't have behaved that way in front of you, ” Ivander replied.

“Mas, Mba Evelyn is also your wife. His attitude is natural. Maybe Mba Ev already thinks of me as his brother. So he's acting normal.”

“It is precisely his attitude is unusual Qei. He's never spoiled like that. Especially feeding me. Usually, he is busy with his cell phone and gives news to his social friends. Looks like ... she wants to make you jealous,” shriek Ivander.

Qeiza smiled and looked at the husband.

“It's only natural that Mba Ev wants to make me jealous. I've taken her husband.”

Ivander shifted his position until now facing off with Qeiza. The man cupped both cheeks of his second wife.

“Nothing you snatched. I chose you, Qei. And Ev gave up willingly. For him, as long as his monthly money did not decrease, that was enough. So, you didn't take me from him at all. He's the one who let me go,” Ivander explained. The man lowered his head and kissed Qeiza on the lips.

“Mas, don't be. It's in the office, someone will see.”

Ivander didn't listen to Qeiza's request. The incident in the elevator was definitely someone saw. The elevator is equipped with a surveillance camera.

The staff in the supervisory room had indeed witnessed the scene. They witnessed how Ivander treated Qeiza so intimately. Time and again Qeiza tried to keep the man away so as not to continue kissing her, many times also Ivander added tightened his embrace.

Ivander had just released Qeiza after the elevator doors opened, right on their destination floor. Ivander again clasped Qeiza's fingers and took the woman to their study.

There was actually no work that Qeiza had to do back then either. Ivander was just looking for an excuse to keep Evelyn from following him. The man only wanted to give farewell to Qeiza. Tonight he could not accompany his young wife. Although it feels heavy, but Ivander must be fair. He also had to share time with Evelyn, although he himself was reluctant to do so.

Qeiza turned around, looking at Ivander who was locking the study. Ivander doesn't usually do that. Because no one dared to enter the room without Ivander's permission.

However, the man did not want the incident this afternoon repeated again. He did not want to be bothered by Evelyn.

“Sini Darling,” said Ivander while patting his thighs. A sign that he wants Qeiza to sit on his lap. Qeiza suddenly hesitated. Evelyn's presence in the office makes the woman uncomfortable if she had to be caught making out with Ivander like this afternoon.

Qeiza hesitantly approached Ivander, then occupied herself in the man's lap.

Ivander again apologized to Qeiza. “Sorry why Mas?”

“Sorry because tonight, Mas can't keep you company. I have to stay at Evelyn's place. You're not angry, are you?”

Although heavy, but Qeiza pretended to give a smile to her husband.

“There's no way I'm angry, Mas. It should be Mba Evelyn who was mad at me. It has been a month not to go home.”

Ivander didn't care about the woman's words. The man started showering on Qeiza's face with an agitated kiss, before finally drowning her face in the curve of Qeiza's neck. Inhaled it deeply in the scent of the body of Qeiza. He will miss that woman very much. The thought of leaving Qeiza alone made him miss. Let alone having to completely part with that woman, tonight.

Nearly thirty minutes Ivander satisfied himself with Qeiza's body. There were already many signs of redness around the woman's neck and chest. Evelyn had even contacted the man repeatedly. Ivander continued to ignore him. The man still wanted to clutch tightly onto Qeiza.

“Mas ... The phone from earlier sounded. Maybe it's Mba Evelyn.”

“Leave it. Anyway, I'll stay at his house tonight. Just let him wait a little longer. Mas still miss you,” shriek Ivander.

“We haven't parted yet, Mas. Time has missed?”

“Try you imagine, Qei. We haven't parted yet, we've missed you. What if Mas can't see you for a few hours? I will surely miss you. Moreover, mas will spend the night without you.”

Qeiza gave a small laugh listening to the man's statement. Actually, Qeiza felt floated hearing the muttering Ivander who had missed her before they separated. But, Qeiza was again slapped on the circumstances. It was not only her that became the wife of Ivander Bratajaya. Not only was money in the man's heart. Perhaps even, he only occupied a small part of the man's heart. When Ivander was with Evelyn, the man must have forgotten her.

“Mas won't go through the night alone. There's an Mba Ev that's gonna serve Mas, tonight. I will definitely forget about me.”

Although he felt his heart ache, but Qeiza tried to say that sentence with a smile. Ivander again cupped both cheeks of Qeiza. Staring deeply at the brownish netra of the woman he loved.

“Mas loves you very much, Qei. There's no way you're forgetting you. Qeiza Hikaru is always in my heart and mind.”

Qeiza widened her smile. Although her name only occupied a small part of the man's heart and mind, it had already made Qeiza feel happy. At least he was in Ivander's heart and mind.

Qeiza had already closed her eyes when Ivander again wanted to curl her lips. However, the sound of knocking on the door made Ivander stop his action. Qeiza even rushed down from the lap of the husband. The woman fixed her clothes. Hook back the buttons of his clothes, and tidying his hair that is certainly no longer neat.

“Do not fix clothes too far from this sofa. Later seen CCTV, Qei,” said Ivander. Qeiza simply nodded and returned to tidying up her clothes. While Ivander was still sitting on the sofa and watching the Qeiza who was tidying up.

“Mas, open the door. I'm done with.”

Ivander complied with Qeiza's request. Lazily, the man swung a step towards the door and opened it.

Evelyn just slipped in.

“How long is it anyway, Hon!”
