Chapter 52
52 Maverick to the rescue.
“You might be his ‘wife’, but nobody knows that. If I were you, I’d hide my face in shame and stop
calling him my husband.” Mn scoffed. (1
“Hmmm… that’s right…” The maid walked back with the scarf. Jeslyn took the scarf from the maid and
started to tie it around her waist while saying, “…The world might not know me to be his wife but the
important people in his life do. Even a nanny like you does, so that’s already a good announcement. 1
Maverick and I don’t need the world to get married or approve our union.” Jeslyn beamed.
“y-”
“Don’t bother with your incessant talks. If you aren’t tired, I am… by the way, isn’t it too early toe to
a house with a newly wedded couple? You should leave. My husband, son, brother-inw, and I want
to have the day all to ourselves and bond over breakfast.
Also…” Jeslyn smiled shyly. “He was…” She lowered her voice and leaned towards Mn. “godly in
bed. Very hot and he made me scream his name all through.” 3
Mn’s face paled and her eyes shut open in disbelief.
“H-he, he, he, y- you…” Mn stammered on without knowing the proper words to say.
“Hmm…” Jeslyn nodded fervently. “Yes, he ate me and he also confessed I was the most delicious
thing he has ever tasted. Hahaha…”
Seeing how bbergasted Mn was, Jeslyn felt an overflow of joy coursing through her veins. 1
“Leave now and when next you areing, wear something that covers that big chest of yours
because I might mistake you for a seductress and you wouldn’t want to see the crazy side of an angry
WIFE.” 1
Jeslyn keptying emphasis on that word. She was never a petty person, but the urge to ruin Mn
kept tugging on her mind. She hated this woman. The more she spoke with Mn, the more she wants
to tear her apart and that feeling surprises her too.
“Jeslyn! How dare you!!” Mn lost it. She couldn’t keep it in anymore. She raised her hand and was
about tond a p on Jeslyn’s pretty face when she heard that voice.

The voice that froze her into a mummy. Her hand was suspended in mid-air as color drained her
already pale face.
“You dare not,”
He didn’t scream, raise his voice, or sound anxious. It was a rxed tone, but it carried a deadly
warning.
Jeslyn shivered from the sound of the voice and slowly turned towards the door.
There he was, the owner of that demonic voice, striding towards them in an uncaring manner with his
face as cold as ice.
His face would leave people imagining if a smile had ever graced it before.
He nced passively at the two women. One was almost naked with a yellow scarf tied loosely

around her waist and a dark green colored bra, while the other was wearing red pants and a ck top.
She held a ck zer in one hand while the other hand was raised.
Maverick’s cold eyes didn’t linger for another second on the women. With one hand in his pocket, he
stood beside Jeslyn with a brow raised.
“Meaning,” he said slowly like he was tired.
“M- Maverick,” Mn bit her lip hard. Why did she call him that? Wasn’t she supposed to address him
as her master?
Mn shifted her gaze to look into his eyes for the first time in six years. She had always had her head
slightly bowed all those years, and now, she wanted to be brave for once.
Raising her head, she summoned courage and stared into those dark eyes that held hers.
Looking into those eyes that felt like they could pierce into her soul, shivers ran down Mn’s back.
She knew this man was one of the dangers feared in country M, yet she still wanted to be by his side…
To be the mother of his heir… To rule the country with him.
She had suffered for so long just for that position, only for him to give it to a stranger…
“W-why?” The word rolled out of her tongue with difficulty as a teardrop slid down her left eye.
“Maverick, why?”
She asked again but he just stood there looking into her iris with no single emotion in his eyes. If
anything could be found, it was… void.
“I- I stayed around you for so long. I took care of your child from when he was born to this age… for six
years Maverick, six years!” She choked on her tears.
Jeslyn slowly turned to look at the man standing beside her. He wasn’t touching her or doing anything
to announce his presence, but his existence can never be ignored.
Looking at him, he didn’t blink nor shift his gaze from Mn.
Jeslyn wondered if the man she unexpectedly married was still human. His handsome face showed no
emotion even when a beautifuldy like Mn was crying in front of him.
‘Does he not like to talk and disy emotions?’ She asked herself. ‘Also, what is she supposed to do
as his wife?…
Jeslyn got lost thinking while staring at her husband’s face that she did not know when he turned to
return the stare, only for him to see her dreaming eyes while looking at him.
Her pale cheek slowly started to turn pinkish.
Maverick ttened his lips and the emotion he refused to show Mn surfaced in his eyes. Although
not obvious, there was a tinge of a smile, just a small smile thatsted for a blink of her eye before his
gaze reverted to their usual cold countenance.
“Jes!yn!!” Mn screamed like a mad woman.
How dare this woman seduce Maverick right in front of her? Mn furiously wiped her face while
ring at Jeslyn like she wanted to eat her whole.
12:02 C
Jeslyn snapped back to her senses and shifted her stare to Mn with a hiss. “Cease screaming like a
nut head, your voice is not sexy.” 1
“Jeslyn, I’ll-”
“Reason,” Maverick interrupted Mn.
That was the second time he asked her for the reason Mn raised her hand to p his wife and he
still hasn’t gotten an answer. 4
