The Accidental Wife (Emily and Julian)

Three days ago, Julian and I decided to give our marriage a chance. I was surprised, but I was certainly happy. He made me happy and treated me well. That night after Thanksgiving dinner at his family's place, I was about to go to my room out of habit, but he stopped m I loved sleeping next to him because the way he held me made me feel safe. I hadn't felt that kind of love in so long. I wasn't sure what the reason was behind that kind of change in our relationship, but I was grateful that we were no longer enemies. Perhaps there was a "Hey, sunshine." 1 looked up from my computer and found Julian standing next to me.

""Hi." I smiled widely upon seeing him.

"It's lunch time, workaholic. Get your things and come with me," he said with a smile on his face. I nodded and grabbed my bag, then went with him. He hadn't done that before. I honestly tried to keep my distance from him at work because I didn't want anybody to talk about us, but Julian didn't give a damn.

"Where would you like to eat?" he asked me, and I shrugged.

"Anywhere"

"Where did you plan on going?" he wondered.

"There's this cafe right across from the company. It has good sandwiches," I replied.

"No, let me take you to a better place." I was surprised when I found his driver waiting for us

"You do know that I only have a forty-minute lunch break, right?" I reminded him.

"You do realize that you're married to the CEO, night" He smirked, making me roll my cyc

We ended up at a very nice restaurant that was only a ten-minute drive away. When we walked inside, I saw Roman Belford inside

"For the love of God." I heard Julian munter when Roman noticed us, making me chuckle lightly. I remembered how he acted during that dinner. It was weird to see him acting all jealous,

"Emily and Julian. What an amazing coincidence," he greeted us and gave me a quick hug.

When I looked at Julian's face, I silently prayed that he wouldn't make any comment. Roman and I had known rach other since college, and he had always been that friendly.

"Would you guys like to have lunch with us?" He motioned to his table where a group of people were already eating there.

"No.

thank you. I'm here with my wife on a small date." Julian wrapped one arm around my waist, pulling me close to him.

"In that case, I wouldn't want to intrude. Enjoy your day," Roman politely said before heading to his table.

After being seated and handed the menu, I looked at my jealous husband and said. "You de realize that you're my husband not him, don't you?"

"He is so friendly with you," he mumbled, and I tried to hide my smile.

"And what's the issue with that?" I closed my menu, keeping my eyes on the man before me. He looked absolutely handsome in his dark grey helped him choose the tie that morning and 1 loved how it complimented his eyes "I don't like it. I don't like other men hugging you," he said.

"But this is possessiveness, babe. There's nothing wrong with friendly hugs and I assure you that if I feel that a man isn't being friendly, I boundaries between us."

I will put

"I know, but I can't just not feel jealous. I'm also jealous of the fact that he saw your designs, but I didn't." That was a surprise. I didn't know that he cared about seeing my designs that much.

"I will show them to you once we're back, I promised him, making him smile. "In fact, you're looking at one of them." I pointed to the soft pink

dress I had or

"It looks perfect on you" I blushed and looked down. I still wasn't used to his compliments. They had a brilliant effect on my self-esteem,

"I know that it's almost three weeks away, but you don't have anything planned for Christmas, right?" he asked me and I shook my head. "Good, because it would have sucked if I didn't have my wife with me on our first Christmas as a couple. Whenever he called me his wife, my heart danced in my chest. I was aware that it was silly to feel like that since he was basically sting the obvious, but I loved the way it sounded on his lips.

"What do you want for Christmas?" Lasked him after the waitress came and took our orders.

"Nothing really. You don't have to get me anything," he said. That wasn't helping. I didn't know what he liked other than racing. He had everything He had watches, perfumes, suits, and ties. I did know that he liked Formula 1, so maybe I could buy him tickets. "What about y There was something that I wanted, but it was expensive, so I wasn't going to ask him to get it for me. I wanted the latest sewing machine. It was for almost twenty thousand dollars, and I wasn't going to ask him to get me such an expensive gift. I was aware that money w "Nothing. Surprise me." I smiled at him.

"So do you want a vacation house, jewelry, or a new car?" My eyes widened upon hearing the options he had given me.

"Have you ever heard about normal gifis" I wondered

"Those sound normal to me." He shrugged.

"How about you do not exceed a thousand dollars?" That was way above normal, but that was his normal.

"You've got to be kidding me." He laughed. "Sunshine, I'm not going to go that cheap. It would be an insult to you."

"I don't want you to spend your money on me, I sighed, looking at him.

"But I want to pamper you," he argued.

"Just don't go overboard, please," I begged him. I wasn't used to expensive gifts. I didn't want to make the most out of our marriage. I just wanted to have a normal relationship with him that wasn't built on his wealth.

"No promises. He winked, making me giggle. "Prepare yourself for next Friday,"RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

"What do we luve on Friday?" As far as I knew, we had no plans.

"Didn't you want to attend a race? The corners of my mouth turned up upon hearing that
