I accidentally married a "CEO"

Lea and Ann arrived early at the location; since she was not that popular yet, they did not request a bodyguard to accompany them on the shoot. When they enter the shopping mall, they were surprised to see a lot of people standing by waiting to watch which celebrities will be filming.

They tried to act like ordinary shoppers, but when people saw Ann, they knew in an instant that she was one of the celebrities. Her beauty was incomparable to any other, and when she walked, it was like she's walking in a catwalk stage, which could be detected by any passerby; her aura was like a superstar.

"Who is she? She's so beautiful; she must be one of the celebrities!" One shopper whispered to another person.

"Let's go ask her for a picture and autograph!" The other person said.

"Are you sure? She could be another shopper, but on the other hand, we better ask now before we lose an opportunity if she is one of the celebrities." The other person insisted.

The two friends tried to act consciously while walking around the bystander, when: "Excuse me! Can we have a picture taken and autograph please!" The duo asked Ann and Lea with a pleading smile on their face while waiving the cellphone in one hand.

Ann was startled at first but regained her senses when Lea stood aside and nodded to Ann, who was hesitating. She smiled sweetly at the two shoppers, then: "Sure! It's my pleasure." She then posed with the two showing beautiful pearly white teeth. She asked if they had a pen handy and gave them her autograph happily.

The two shoppers were happy to the bone. As they were walking, they were waiving in the air the signed autograph and cellphone with the picture they had taken, while thanking her wholeheartedly for her kindness, "She's the best, what's her name? Ann Wen...so! Her name is Ann Wen." One of the shoppers said.

"Ann Wen!!! We love you! We are your #1 fan!!!" The other shopper yelled.

The other bystanders that were waiting heard the person yelling and started running to Ann's direction like a mob. Just in time for Jeff and Ronald to see what was happening. They rushed to Ann and Leah and ushered them to a secluded area.

Ann was shaking and unable to breathe from running. "What was that? Why were they coming after me? That was scary!" Looking at her husband, whose concern was showing on his face, but unable to reveal his affection in public. "From now on, don't you ever go to a public area without a bodyguard you hear me! What would you have done if I had not arrived in time?" Jeff asked with concern in his voice.

As they were having this discussion, Claudia arrived acting like the "Diva's Princess." When she saw the four in the secluded place, she wondered what was going on. 'There's, is something wrong with this picture here? Is she a faceless girlfriend? Hmmm, I need to find out one way or the other.'

Claudia walked to where the four were: "Well, hello sweetie pie! What brings you here? You missed me so much that you can't stay away from me?" She said, trying to provoke Jeff and Ann in the process.

Jeff just ignored Claudia's teasing and proceeded with his overprotective behavior with Ann. "I'm alright now, I was just frightened when I saw the group of people coming to my direction, it was nothing grave. Thank you for your concern, CEO Go." Ann told Jeff, lifting his hands apart from her.

"If you are sure, then I'll be on my way!!!" Jeff was agitated at how Ann was treating him right now, but it was all his fault, and he needed to amend it. The sooner, the better otherwise he might end up losing his wife in the process.

Claudia was steaming when she realized that Jeff ignored her just like that. They have an understanding, and it seems his reneging on the deal. 'Let's see what you will do on the day of grandpa Go's birthday. You will regret how you've treated me, you watch!' Then turned around and stormed off to the direction of the dressing room without fretting with Ann and Lea.

Subsequently, they were set to start filming. The child that would be playing as Ann's daughter was a cute little girl with long black hair, small round face, a little chubby cheek, and a sweet low voice.

When Ann met her, she instantly fell in love with the child. 'How she wished that she could have a daughter like her' Ann thought while smiling.

"Everyone, take your rightful places now! Filming is about to commence." The Director spoke loudly in the mouthpiece he was holding.

Claudia, Ann, and the little girl went to their particular places waiting for their cue:

"Action!" The Director shouted.

As soon as they heard it, Ann and the little girl began their act of shopping for the little girl's first day at school. Claudia's role was to tag along while they were shopping, nothing else.

However, Instead of acting her part, she started doing her own things, making an N.G.

"Cut!" The Director yelled.

"Claudia! What is going on? You're only supposed to tag along during the shopping, why are you creating your own scene?" The Director asked Claudia.

"I'm sorry! I just thought it's too boring for me to look and not touch, so I improvised a little." She said, trying to be cute while at it.

Unfortunately, the Director did not buy it and glared at her, then gave her a lecture. "Don't do it again, follow the script, okay!" Let's start again, then went back to his chair.

"Action!..."

Cut!...!" N.G. again.

"Action!..."

CUT!!!!"N.G. again! The Director and everyone else in the set was now getting tired of Claudia not following the script.

Claudia, on the other hand, was having fun and enjoying everyone's discomfort, especially Ann's.

"This is the last one that I'm giving you Claudia! If you still N.G. this scene, then get out of my set! You hear me!" The Director warned her for the last time.

They all went back to their spots and started the same process: "Action!... Cut!" Then finally, they received the word they were waiting. It's okay, that's a wrap." The Director ordered.

"What the hell was that all about?" Lea asked Ann as they were heading to the dressing room. "Claudia could have done it just like that from the beginning, why did she make it hard for everyone?" She asked, surprised, and kept on looking behind where Claudia has a smirk on her face while looking at them.

"I know, right?" One of the assistants from the set that was following behind them interjected.

Ann just stayed quiet the whole time; she didn't have much to say when it came to Claudia. If she could help it, she didn't have any intention of acting with her in this commercial, but Claudia was able to squeeze in. What was she to do, but suffer through the ordeal?

"Hopefully, this is the only scene I have with her; I will be satisfied if I never lay eyes on her again." She said and just kept on walking.

That night back in the condo, Ann was reading the script for the Drama that Lea wanted her to star with Jonathan. The writing was right up her alley, just like Lea said. A Musical with some acting. The story had been revised to fit Asian actors, and it felt like it was designed just for her.

She was in deep thought when her phone on the top of the table started buzzing, and she looked at the caller. ' Hmm, It's Mr. CEO, what does he want now?' She thought before swiping the green button to answer the call. "Hello!" she replied.

"Hi! What are you doing?" Jeff cheerfully asked a smile could be heard from his voice.

"Reading a script for a Drama, what about you?" Ann sounded bored to death and was forced to answer the call.

"Lonely and missing you! Can I come over for a little while? Please!!!" He pleaded like a little child asking for a treat.

"Aren't you busy? I thought a CEO is normally busy and has no time to socialize? How come it seems you have all the time in the world? Do you ever work?" Ann replied without actually answering his request.

"You haven't answered my question, can I come over, just for a tiny bit?" He pleaded once again, his voice now sounds pitiful.

Ann contemplated for a minute, and she looked around the condo before answering calmly. "I guess it's alright! Lea is out for the night, and it's just me by myself, so come if you want."

"Really!!! I'll be right over!" Jeff hangs up the phone quickly without bothering to say goodbye. Ann just shakes her head while grinning for the way Jeff sounded so excited, then sighed.

Not a minute passed before Ann heard the door opening and Jeff walked in still in his office suits. It seems that he was already outside the door and had a set of keys at hand.

Ann, with a sizeable bulging eye looking at her handsome tired-looking husband, bewildered with his sudden appearance. Suddenly it occurred to her, and she then realized something... "LEA!!!!"
