“ Bad Husband”
Athor by Natalie Ernison
… …
James began to think of a way so he could Always see Diane. He worked very hard at this, and hoped to protect Diane the woman he so desperately wanted.
“How long have you been that woman's remote surveillance camera?” Asked a close friend of James, who had come to visit.
James just kept quiet and didn't say much.
“ James, you can't have that woman!” The friend said.
“ At least I can snatch it in an honorable way. A woman as good and beautiful as Diane doesn't deserve to be hurt.” James said confidently.
“ I know..”
“ What do you know? You will never know and understand how I feel.” James snapped with such sharp eyes.

“Alexavier and Diane Family Mansion”
“Get ready to go with me.” Alex said while wearing his shirt.
Without asking much, Diane immediately cleaned up and adjusted to her husband's appearance. Alex never doubted the appearance of his wife who Always looks elegant with his choices.
“Put on a long coat, it's cold outside.” Alex said, then stepped outside.
Diane was slightly taken aback by the slight attention from Alex the cold and rude man.
“ OK.” Diane replied briefly, then followed Alex to the main lobby.
... … …
“ The car is ready, Mister and Madam.” Said one of Alex's private drivers.
“ I will go alone with your madam. So, there is no need for control.
“ Ready, understood sir.”
The atmosphere on the way was quiet and there was no conversation. Diane didn't want to get into a heated argument, because she Always did. Diane chose to remain silent. He was even busy with his cell phone.

“New York downtown restaurant”
Alex walked in the front row, while Diane was left alone.
Unexpectedly, they met James. Diane was so shocked that her whole body felt so weak.
“ Good evening, Mister Alexavier and Mrs. Caspian.” James said with a smile at Diane, eyes so deep that Diane was speechless.
There were only four of them, namely Diane Alex, James and their close friends.
--“ This man is really desperate to have a meeting with the woman he really wants with his husband ..”-- thought Joe, a friend of James.
“ As we have discussed together, I am very interested in Mrs. Diane's work experience. Has it been considered, Mister Alex?” said James. Diane looked confused and they looked at each other.
“ As you know, my wife is the Mistress of the Caspian family. I don't want just because her position in the job can affect the good name of the Caspian family.” said Alex.
James was very surprised to hear the statement from Alex's mouth, which said it was as if Diane would affect the family's good name. If Diane got the wrong position in a job. Diane, on the other hand, seemed very used to it, and it didn't really affect her much.
Diane even ate her food so casually.
“ What a shameful man! He spoke without thinking about Diane's feelings!” James was very upset.
“ I have prepared the best position for Mrs. Diane, and I am sure her position will not embarrass the good name of the Mister's family.”
“ Ah, then, what is Diane's position in your company?”
“ Mrs. Diane is free to choose a position, as head of the design department or who goes directly to the field.” said James holding back his annoyance. He clenched his left fist under the table, and Joe saw it.
“ I wanted Diane in the design department, which kept her in the room.” Alex said without asking Diane first.
“ Very good, deal.” Said James inviting Alex and Diane to shake hands.
“ Thank you for your time Mister and Madam tonight.” said James sending Alex and Diane home.
When Diane and Alex were gone he came back with a cold expression.
--“ This is the beginning for me and Diane ..”-- James seems to have made a lot of big plans for the future.

“ Alexavier and Diane Family Residence Mansion”
As usual in the morning, Diane had to serve her husband. Even when it starts working.
“ When you work, remember to take care of all my needs. Don't let the women out there take care of me.” Alex snapped, and the words sounded quite spicy to the ears. But Diane chose to remain silent, not wanting to say much. Diane seems quite resigned to her household.
“ Are you listening to me?” Alex asked for sure, in a fairly high tone of voice.
“ Well, I hear you .” Diane replied with an unhappy face.
“ Ask the driver to drop you off and pick you up for work. Remember well, don't embarrass the Caspian surname.” Alex warned then left first.
Diane was still silent and finished her breakfast. Diane brought lunch, because her first work day's schedule was quite busy.

“xxx company”
Diane arrived at the company with the driver, and Diane just wanted to be driven across the gate. Diane doesn't want to stand out with what she's wearing. Luxury sports cars were indeed hers, but Diane didn't think much of it anymore. Her life is like a living doll that her husband, Alexavier continues to steer.
Upon arrival, Diane was directed directly by James. James really kept Diane by his side. Even in her work, Diana was asked to work not far from her workspace. Everything has been arranged that way.
Diane was so nervous, she didn't know where to start. Diane had lied to James of her true identity and status. Diane also plans to apologize to James directly.
“ Miss Diane, Miss will work in the same room as the CEO of the company. Please,” said one of the secretaries of James.
Diane entered the room very carefully, and James was waiting for her.
“ Please lock the door.” James said to Diane. Diane also obeyed what James ordered her.
As usual, James always turned off the CCTV camera when Diane was in the room.
“ Mister. James, I..—”
“ Have you had enough of deceiving me, by pretending to be an ordinary woman, Mrs. Caspian?” said James, Diane silent regretfully.
James actuAlly smiled at Diane's nervous expression. “ As compensation for this premeditated deception, I order you to work with me.” said James.
Diane looked up at James, she was quite surprised by James' attitude towards her.
“ You are too beautiful to be humiliated and continue to be in that thorny nest.” James said using parable sentences.
“ Misterr James I'm very sorry for my lie, I really don't have any bad intentions, Sir.” Diane was sorry, and she was so sorry.
James continued to smile as he kept his back to Diane.
“ Don't you reAlly want to be in this company? Now you've got the best position, haven't you?”
“ Well, you're right sir.”
“ Miss Diane has nothing to worry about. Just do your best, everything will be fine.” James said, then bravely approached Diane's face and Almost hit Diane's lips with hers.
Diane's eyes widened, her heart suddenly beating faster than usuAlex.
--“ I will do anything to snatch this white dove ..”--
