My Belittled Husband Is A Billionaire

CHAPTER 24: I CAN’T SEDUCE HIM?!



Winter’s POV

“Hey there, Winter!”

I rolled my eyes as soon as I saw Ian arrive at the filming location with a huge smile on his face.

“Great, you just ruined my day,” I said.

“You’re harsh.”

“Oh, come on. Don’t pretend as if you like seeing me here.”

He then sat next to me. “Sure, I don’t enjoy seeing you here, either. But what else can I do? I don’t have any choice.”

“Can you just not talk to me anymore? You’re making my day even worse.”

“You’re the one who keeps on talking to me, anyway.”

I didn’t speak anymore. Because, for sure, he would only keep on pissing me off if I do. This bastard keeps on insulting me every single day and for sure, there would really be a time when I wouldn’t be able to take it anymore and I would finally smack his head.

“Here, have some coffee,” he said, then handed me a cup of coffee.

I just glanced at the coffee he was holding and shook my head. “I’m sorry, but I don’t drink cheap coffee. Especially if it was given by a person I despise. I don’t really know. Maybe you put some poison in there.”

“Of course, I won’t do that. I’m not like you.”

“Right. Because you’re worse.”

“Excuse me, Miss Winter and Sir Ian. C-Can we take a photo with the two of you? We really love you as a couple!” two teenage girls suddenly approached us while holding their phones.

Ugh.

“I’m sorry, but we’re busy right now.” said Ian.

I immediately stood up and smiled at the two girls. “Of course, it’s alright! No problem!”

“Oh, my god! You really are an angel, Miss Winter!”

“You are the Goddess of all the goddesses!”

“Oh, come on. You’re complimenting me too much. But anyway, I don’t really know if Ian would take some photos with us. As you see, he looks tired.” I said while pretending to look disappointed.

The two girls also gazed at Ian with disappointment in their eyes. And since for sure he won’t let me be the only one who looks nice and approachable to our fans, he stood up and looked at them. “You know I can never be busy for my fans. Let’s take as many photos as you want!”

“Ahh! Winter Wesley and Ian are going to take photos with us!”

We started posing for the photos. Ian kept on pushing me close to him, but I always push him away or make some poses that would make him feel more annoyed and uncomfortable. He kept on glaring at me until the two girls were already done taking photos with us.

“Don’t you get tired of acting so nice in front of your fans? Or maybe you’re just afraid they might leave the fandom if they ever find out about your real attitude?”

“Aren’t you the same? Look at you putting a smile on your face as soon as you saw me letting them take some pictures. Don’t pretend as if you don’t keep your image good, too.”

***

“So, how’s your plan going? Is your handsome already head over heels to you?” Haley asked me while we were inside the car going home.

I leaned on my chair. “I don’t even need to exert a huge effort to make that man fall in love with me.”

“Does that mean he’s already in love with you? But how sure are you? Did he confess or told you he loves you?”

“For sure he is. He doesn’t need to confess, anyway. Who would never fall in love with me? Especially when he gets to see my face every single day?”

“I knew it. You’re just making your own conclusion once again. I know men would easily fall in love with you, but I think Matthew is different. I think he is a kind of guy who focuses on his goal and he wouldn’t want someone just because they’re beautiful.”

I turned my head to her. “And how can you even say that? Are you his ex-wife or what? Tell me, is he your ex-boyfriend? Do you know him personally?”

“What? Of course not! I’m just saying that because that’s what I have observed from Matthew.”

“Then shut up. You don’t even know him and so you don’t have the right to tell me what he feels about me.”

Haley laughed. “Looks like the Goddess of all goddesses, Winter Wesley, can’t seduce a mere penniless man.”

“Shut up! Just watch and you’ll see how that moron becomes so obsessed with me!”

“Then I’ll wait for that day to come.”

As I stepped inside the mansion, I immediately walked upstairs and looked for Matthew. I even had to knock a couple times on his door before he finally opened the door for me. “Oh, you’re finally here. Hello there, Winter?”

“What are you doing right now?” I asked him.

“Huh? Well, I’m just finishing some paper works.”

I nodded my head. “Aren’t you going to eat?”

“I think I won’t have time to make dinner. I’m not that hungry, anyway.”

“Just wait there. I’ll bring you dinner.”

“Huh? You don’t have to do that-

Before he could even finish talking, I already hurried myself downstairs straight to the kitchen to ask the maids to make some dinner for me and Matthew. I also went to my room to take a bath before deciding to go back to the kitchen to get our dinner, then I went to Matthew’s room again.

I will make Haley see I can easily seduce Matthew. No man can ever resist my charm if that’s what she’s thinking.

“W-Winter, you don’t have to do that. And you really bring the dinner here in my room?” Matthew looked so surprised upon seeing me holding a tray of food for him.

“It’s alright. I know you can’t make your dinner since you’re doing a lot of paperwork right now. That is why we’re having dinner together here inside your room!”

I placed all the food on his table, then I sat on the chair while tapping the other with my hand. Come here, Matthew. Let’s have dinner together.”

Still looking so confused, Matthew had no choice but to sit beside me.

See? He can’t even say no to me.

“It’s delicious, right?” I asked him.

“Yes, it is. By the way, Winter. Why did you decide to have dinner with me tonight? Do you feel lonely eating alone?”

I shook my head while smiling. “It’s not like that. I just want to have dinner with you. Is that wrong? Or maybe you don’t want to eat with me?”

“I-I don’t mean it like that. I-I’m just… surprised.”

“You need to get used to it now. Because I might have dinner with you from now on.” I said while smiling at him.

“Are you sure that’s alright with you? I-I mean, you don’t have to force yourself. I know you’re not used to eating dinner with someone like me.”

“Hey, don’t talk like that. You’re still my husband, you know.”

He just nodded his head and continued eating.

For sure, he’s thinking I am so kind now.

“Matthew.”

“Huh?”

I put my cutlery down and wiped the corners of my mouth using a napkin before speaking. “What do you actually think about me? I mean, do you think I’m pretty?”

He started coughing as if I just said something he didn’t like. He drank some water, then he looked at me again. “I-I’m sorry? W-What did you say again?”

“I said, do you actually think I’m pretty? Am I beautiful to you?” I asked again while my hands were balled into fists, as if I was waiting for something I really wanted to hear.

“O-Of course, you are pretty. Aren’t you named as the prettiest celebrity in our country? You are pretty, Winter. Why did you ask, anyway?”

“Are you sure about that? Do you really think I’m pretty?”

He nodded his head. “Of course. I think even if you ask other people, they would tell you the same thing.”

“Good to hear, then. You like me, right? You like me as a woman? And for sure, you also married me because you find me really attractive. Right?”

He didn’t reply immediately.

“Look, I don’t even know why you’re asking me that, Winter. But in case you just wanted to know if you look pretty to other people, then I’ll be the one to tell you that you really are beautiful.”

“And you like me.”

“Yes, I like you as a person. And I respect you, Winter.”

I stood up and sat on his lap, which surprised him.

“W-What are you doing, Winter?!”

“You like me as a person, huh? And what does that mean? Come on, Matthew. I know you’re dying to have me as your wife, too. And you surely can’t wait to see my body, right?” I said seductively as I faced him.

His brows furrowed. “Winter, what are you saying there? Get up now. Someone might see us like this.”

“And who cares? We’re a couple, anyway. They won’t care if they ever see us like this. Come on, honey.” I said, moving my face closer to him.

“Winter, please. I still have so many things to do.”

I smiled as I run my fingers on his hair. “You know what, Matthew? I think you are actually handsome.”

“Winter–

“Have you experienced kissing someone already before? Your lips look so red, I want to taste them.” I said as I bit my lower lip, trying my best to seduce him even more.”

He kept on shaking his head. “Winter, we can’t do this. Come on-

“Just one kiss.” I whispered.

I then started moving my face closer to him until we were just inches apart. And as I was finally about to kiss him, his phone suddenly rang. I was planning to just ignore that, but then the moron pushed me away and stood up, causing me to fall to the floor. “W-What the hell?!”

“I-I’m sorry, I just have to answer this.” he said then he warded off his room.

W-What the hell did just happen?

D-Did he just rejected my kiss?!
