《MYTHICAL DESCENDANT: Married to Mr. Fox》Chapter 10: HEARTACHE
Advertisement
Amayah felt unhappy as Jayden let go of her hand. Ember just walked past them, but Amayah said in a dissatisfied tone, "Are you the woman Jayden married?"
Ember stopped and looked at her. Then she answered, "Yes I am, and are you his mistress?"
Hearing the answer from Ember, she felt indignant. Jayden was shocked to hear that Ember thought Amayah was his mistress. He felt a bit hurt.
"Mistress? Huh! You're so hilarious. Do you know Jayden likes me?"
"Amayah! Stop talking nonsense!" Jayden raised his voice.
"Nonsense? Isn't it true you like me?"
Amayah hugged Jayden's hand tightly and said in a flirty tone. Seeing them so close makes her frustrated. Before her rage explodes, she wants to get away from them as quickly as possible.
"I'll excuse myself. I don't have time to hear your love story?"
Ember showed a straight face and walked away.
"You!"
Amayah yells at Ember, but she tries to keep it under control because Jayden is present.
"Return to your home; it's too late." Jayden told Amayah, but she ignored him.
"Jayden, does the woman know your secret? What if she knew about you? She wouldn't run away? Would she accept you?"
Amayah asked with a mocking expression, and he felt irritated looking at her face.
"You leave, leave now!"
Jayden expressed it in an angry tone. Amayah was shocked because that was the first time Jayden scolded her. She got in the car and left the mansion with an unsatisfied face.
While Ember was taking a shower, she felt unhappy after hearing Amayah's words that Jayden liked her. It makes her recall her ex-boyfriend Zane cheating on her. She feels Jayden will also do the same as Zane did. But she also thought she had no right to feel angry because she and Jayden had just met and didn't know about his past.
After the shower, Ember laid down on the bed and tried to sleep. Jayden walked into the room, and the lights in the room were dimmed. Jayden looked at Ember, who was lying down, and he felt guilty about what had just happened. As a result, he wishes to clarify the misunderstanding situation with her.
"She's not my mistress. As you know, I don't have any mistresses. I just got you as my wife. Nobody else, except you. So, please don't misunderstand."
After Jayden clarified everything to Ember, he went into the bathroom. Ember, who pretended to sleep, heard everything Jayden said to her. She felt her heart pounding. Jayden's words tell her that, "I just had you as my wife, nobody else, except you." Keep playing in her ears and mind. She was happy and blushing. However, she didn't like Amayah's touching him freely. She still can not accept it.

Early in the morning, Ember got up, got ready, and left the room slowly because she didn't want to wake Jayden.
Kyla saw Ember and asked. "Ma'am, where are you going?"
"I want to go to work. Kyla, I will not have breakfast here." Ember hurriedly went out, and she got in the car and drove to her shop.
Jayden woke up and looked to his side. Ember was gone. He showered, got ready, and left the room. When Jayden came across Kyla he asked her, "Where's Ma'am?"
"She's already left. She said she wouldn't have breakfast here. Breakfast for you is ready, sir.
"No, I'm not hungry. You just eat that food."
Jayden lost his appetite after learning that Ember had already left. He went to find Xander, who was outside.
"Xander, we're going to the company today."
While on the way to the office, Jayden just kept quiet. He's kept thinking about Ember. He knew Ember was angry at him and didn't want to see him. Xander noticed Jayden's expression, and he was curious.
"Master, are you okay? I heard Amayah is back from Paris." Jayden sighed after hearing Amayah's name mentioned.
"Yesterday, she told Ember that I liked her. She was spouting nonsense." Jayden expressed it with an unhappy expression.
"What did Ember say?"
"She said she didn't have time to listen to the love story of Amayah, but from last night until this morning, Ember didn't talk with me. I think she ignored me, and you know what else, Ember asked Amayah if she was my mistress. Do I look that bad?"
"That's why you're not happy?"
"Hmm... maybe."
Xander noticed that Jayden seemed to really care about Ember's feelings. He looks worried if Ember is thinking bad about him. Xander believes Jayden has begun to develop feelings for Ember.
At the florist shop, Ember arranges flowers, waters the flowers, and cleans the shop. Aubrey, who had just arrived, was stunned to see the shop already cleaned.
"You came early?"
"Well, we haven't been here in two days."
"That's why you came early?"
Ember paused for a moment, and nodded her head. Actually, the real reason is that she wants to avoid meeting Jayden. She didn't know how to face him. Because he knew she was angry, that's why he clarified it to her last night.
In the company, architecture. Jayden is the CEO of the company. On the way into the elevator, Jayden came across Ember's father.

"Oh, Jayden, how are you? How's Ember?"
"She's fine, don't worry." Jayden responded with a forced smile. He was trying to hide the truth that he'd just made Ember angry.
"She's not making your life hard, right?"
"No, not at all." Jayden stared at the floor while talking. Damian nodded. He was glad Ember was just fine and the elevator opened.
"I'll excuse myself."
Jayden bowed his head, and quickly got out of the elevator and went into his office. He was worried if Damian would ask him more about Ember. He didn't know how to respond.
While in the office, Jayden is unhappy because he is busy thinking about Ember. He held up his phone, and only then did he realize he didn't have Ember's contact number.
"Is this woman bewitching me? I've never felt so insane before. Why does my mind keep thinking about her? I should be thinking about work, not her."
Jayden scratches his head and feels miserable. Suddenly, Jayden received a call from Camilla.
"Hello Mom."
"My dear, today there will be a company party. Don't forget to go, okay?"
Party? He's not feeling like going. But he didn't have a choice.
"All right, mom." Jayden responded with an unenergized tone.
While Ember and Aubrey were having lunch. Ember also receives a phone call from Camilla.
"Hello, Mom, what's the matter?"
"Ember, tonight, our company is having a party. You're coming to the party, okay? Aubrey is also invited to attend."
"Okay mom, after work we're going to the party. Just send me the location."
"Okay, see you tonight."
"Yes, mom." After talking, they turned off the phone.
"What party?" Aubrey was curious.
"My mother-in-law's company is having a party. You're invited too."
"Really? I haven't been to a party in a long time."
"Seriously? Two days ago, you just went to my wedding."
"Oh, I forgot, hahaha."
Aubrey laughs out loud because she's forgotten everything. Ember, on the other hand, was curious if Jayden also attended the party. She thinks she should make up with him and they should be nice to each other.
At 5 pm, Ember and Aubrey close the shop, and they go to Carlos's shop.
Upon arriving there, Carlos greeted them.
"Hi ladies, what can I help you with?"
"We want to go to a party. Can you dress us up?"
Ember pleaded him. They didn't bring anything to wear, so they didn't have a choice to ask Carlos for help.
"Of course, both of you. Come follow me."
After finishing, Carlos complimented them because they looked so pretty. Ember wears a backless long black bodycon dress with a slit to her thigh. Aubrey wore a long red halter dress with a slit to her thigh.
Ember drove to the address given by Camilla, along with Aubrey. After arriving at the party location, they both got out of the car and went inside.
Inside the party hall, Camilla was with Jayden and Xander. She looks around looking for them.
"I invited Ember and Aubrey to come, but it looks like they haven't come yet."
Jayden was shocked to hear Ember come. He can't wait to meet Ember because he hopes Ember will forget about what happened yesterday. But suddenly, a familiar voice greeted them.
"Hi, Madam Camilla, how are you? We haven't seen each other in a long time."
Camilla's face changed because she was surprised to see Amayah. Camilla looks at Jayden, and Jayden tries to escape the gaze of Camilla. Jayden felt miserable again. What would Ember think if she saw Amayah was here?
"Amayah, aren't you in Paris?" Camilla asked her with a dissatisfied expression.
"Yes, but I came back because I found out Jayden was married." Amayah expressed her sadness in a sad tone. But Camilla felt disgusted looking at her expression.
"Well, he's married and has a wife." Camilla shows a proud expression. Amayah smiled, but with a forced smile. She looks at Jayden with flirty eyes and comes closer to him.
"Jayden, will you be with me during this party?"
Amayah held Jayden's hand. Jayden tried to pull his hand away, but Amayah grabbed his hand tightly. He's feeling annoyed and wants to push her away, but there are many eyes looking at them. Camilla is not happy to see Amayah so close to Jayden.
At the party, suddenly, people were murmuring. They were finding out what people were murmuring. Ember and Aubrey had just arrived at the party. Their beauty fascinates everyone. Both of them headed towards Camilla after they saw her.
