When You Know, You Know

We arrived at the venue in twenty minutes. The car ride was comfortable even though Luis kept staring at me.
Once we got out of our car, reporters surrounded us, and I felt apprehension from Luis. He didn’t want to be captured at all.
You look beautiful, Ms. Chasia! Who are you wearing?!” A reporter
asked.

Who’s that handsome man with you? Is he your new conquest?”
Is he the one you cheated on your husband with?!” A male reporter
asked.
I was a little taken aback by what they were asking.
Cheated? What rubbish was that! I didn’t cheat on Maybin. He cheated on me. Luis held my waist, and I looked up at him, smiling.
“Let’s go,” he said softly.
I exhaled and entered the hotel lobby.
They think you cheated on that b astard, Maybin!’ Zey growled in my head. The press made such allegations against me.
I felt a warm hand on my cheek, and I looked in the soft eyes of Luis.” Are you alright, Zeyneb,” It was the first time I heard Luis say my name, and it sounded beautiful to my ears. I nodded and smiled at him. We linked our arms as we went into the ballroom. I interacted with people from my company, and Luis was by my side the entire time. It almost seemed like he cared about me.
I’ll find Love now. Talk to them,” He gestured to the two men who

wanted a word with me. They were my college friends. I didn’t want him to leave because of them. I held his arm tightly, his gaze lowered
my hand on his arms before they moved to my face,
I’ll be back,” he added and left.
Simas, Lyno,” I smiled and greeted the two gentlemen. They were doing well in their companies, and Lyno was running for office in
Canada despite his young age.
I conversed with them, but my heart wanted to see Luis. I continued socializing and dancing.
“I heard about your divorce. I was sorry to hear that,” Lyno said. Simas snickered, ” Are you sorry? We all knew you were in love with her.”
We laughed, and Lyno stared at me and replied, “I was. Maybe I still am,” his smile was friendly towards me.
So, are you seeing someone?” Simas asked.
Um, not really at the moment. My divorce is yet to be concluded, and I’m taking time for myself. To love, and rediscover myself,” I said.
It had been over thirty minutes, and Luis wasn’t back. I excused myself from Lyno and Simas. I went to the bathroom to retouch m makeup, and on my way back, I felt a rough hand wrap around my waist, and I immediately found that f ucking scent. Maybin! I turned around abruptly and punched him in the face.

Don’t touch me!” I growled. He st aggered a few feet and held his stinging cheek.

Easy there, wifey,” he laughed. “You’re so angry!”
I shook my head and started to walk, but he pulled me back and slammed me against the wall. For a moment, I felt pain shoot through my back.

Who was that man with you earlier?” he growled.
No one of your f ucking business, Maybin!” I hissed, pushing him
away, but he gripped my hips painfully.
Our divorce isn’t yet to be finalized, and you’re here parading your new lover around? You’re such a s lut,” he growled in my ear. I raised my knee and kicked him in between his legs. He doubled over and held his cro tch area.
I’m not a sl ut. You’re the manwhore who cheated on me with my friend, and you’re switching the narrative,” I said and punched him again. Lissar came to us in a hurry, pushing me off her lover. I growled, and she flinched.

Don’t touch me, you traitor. What the f uck are you even doing here?”
I asked.
I was sure they weren’t invited to the charity gala.
“We were invited. Maybin is a noble and powerful alpha,” Lissar
sneered.
“He’s a nobody. He’s probably here looking for investors as he doesn’t have me to sponge off,”
