Trapped I can't escape from the Billionaire

Letta slowly approached Marco, who was on the bed and had been busy with the screen in front of him since this afternoon when Arabella mentioned wanting to borrow him tomorrow to take him around her private boutique to show him her latest clothing collection. Marco didn't give any response, leaving Arabella with no choice but to leave everything to Letta.

Letta then walked over to Marco's bed after putting Freya to sleep.

"Are you busy?" Letta asked, making Marco, who was wearing his glasses, mumble without looking at her.

"It's late. You should rest. You can continue your work at the office tomorrow, right?" Letta said again, making Marco finally look at her.

"This is urgent work. It'll only take a few minutes, and I'll finish it," Marco replied, making Letta nod her head.

Letta then chose to climb onto the bed and lay beside Marco, waiting for her husband to finish all his work. Only then would she touch upon her earlier question. A few minutes later, as Marco had said, he finally closed his screen, placed it on the nightstand, took off his glasses, and prepared to lie down next to her. Letta immediately turned to look at her husband, who was now massaging the bridge of his nose.

"Do you want something to drink? I can get it for you," Letta said, making Marco finally turn to look at her.

"No need. I just want to rest," Marco replied, making Letta fall silent while continuing to observe her husband's face. Marco seemed to realize his wife's behavior.

"Go on, you want to say something, don't you?" Marco said, making Letta nod her head.

"What was the matter this afternoon?" Marco asked again, making Letta shake her head.

"It's not a problem. I just asked for your permission to go out with Arabella. I'll take Freya with me," Letta replied, making Marco sigh deeply.

"Tomorrow, I'll have Pedro accompany you," Marco finally answered, making Letta immediately shake her head.

"No need. I'm sure you'll have a lot of work tomorrow, so it's better for Pedro to assist you at the office. You just need to have the driver take me," Letta said, making Marco shake his head.

"No. You'll be leaving the house, and I don't know where you'll be going. So I don't trust that woman, because she can be a bit cunning. Who knows, she might take you to places other than her private boutique, right?" Marco said, making Letta shake her head.

"No, she just wants to show me her clothing collection. Besides, I don't have much time to meet with designers or go to other boutiques, right?" Letta said, making Marco furrow his brow.

"Since when do you care about passion and current trends?" Marco asked, leaving Letta silent. Of course, she had never been as enthusiastic as most people, but it was the only idea that could make her meet with Arabella.

"True, I wasn't interested before, but after getting to know Arabella, it's not too bad to follow current fashion trends. Besides, Arabella mentioned that when people know that I'm the wife of Marco Jovanka, it wouldn't hurt to improve my appearance. I don't want to embarrass you," Letta said, making Marco finally let out a long sigh.

"Alright, but not for long. You can only be outside the house for no more than 2 hours, and you don't need to bring Freya. I'm afraid the paparazzi might deliberately take your pictures. You know, Arabella isn't just an ordinary person. She's also a model, and there will certainly be many people chasing news about her, especially when it concerns you. I don't want to take any risks,"

"Why can't I bring Freya?" Letta asked.

"People will surely take a lot of photos of Freya, and they are also curious about our child, so it's better for you to go alone. Let Freya stay with Desi or maybe leave her with Mommy," Marco said, making Letta finally let out a long sigh. What Marco said was true, as Freya hadn't been shown to the public yet. So they didn't want to take any risks with their little daughter.

"Alright, then," Letta said, then reached out her hand, pulling Marco into her embrace. "There, you've got the permission. So now let me hold you like this. I'm really tired and I need your scent," Marco said, nuzzling into Letta's neck, causing Letta to close her eyes and feel the warmth of Marco's breath on her skin.

"Then let me help you by massaging your head. How about that?" Letta asked, gently massaging Marco's temples.

"Yes, that's better," Marco said, feeling his wife's gentle massage. Letta then directed her hands towards his head, but her movement stopped when she felt something unfamiliar on her fingers, causing Letta to push aside her husband's thick hair.

"Do you have a scar on your head?" Letta asked, making Marco touch it.

"Yes, a scar from when I was little, it's not a big deal," Marco said, pulling Letta's hand away from his head.

"What happened exactly?" Letta asked again.

"Well, I fell from a tree when I was young and got some stitches on my head," Marco answered, making Letta furrow her brow.

"It's not like scars from childhood fade as we grow older, but this one seems very recent. I can still feel it," Letta said, making Marco shake his head.

"Never mind, don't talk about my scar. It's better this way. Let me rest now. I have an important meeting tomorrow, and I haven't prepared for it yet," Marco said, making Letta fall silent before nodding her head.

"Alright then. Good night," Letta said, making Marco nod. However, just a few seconds later, Marco opened his eyes again and looked up at Letta, who was still gazing at him.

"Give me a goodnight kiss so I can have sweet dreams," Marco said, making Letta smile as she leaned in.

"Alright," Letta said, finally giving a sweet kiss to her husband's lips.

"There, done. Now sleep, and you'll surely have sweet dreams," Letta said, making Marco nod his head. Marco began to close his eyes in his wife's embrace, savoring the scent of his wife that made him feel at peace. Meanwhile, Letta could only stroke the top of her husband's head, slowly feeling Marco's breath becoming steady. Somehow, although Letta had to do it, there was a Slight sense of guilt in her heart for deceiving Marco. However, this was the only way for Letta to meet Abian and clarify her memories. Although Letta had initially lied, she promised that once she obtained everything from her plan with Arabella, she would tell Marco.
