My brother-in-law My husband
Chapter 21

"Shh," the woman put her index finger on her lips and blinked, "I'm just an acquaintance of Marco. I'm going with my girlfriend now. Good bye."

Gwen and her boyfriend came out of the room and used the elevator to get down to the parking lot. Catherine was still too shocked to react.

First, the black underwear in the laundry basket, now a pair of celebrities sleeping in Marco's room.

Catherine shook her head, trying to adjust to her new life as a servant,

"How can I provide a good environment for Amanda like this? I need to talk to Marco. Maybe he'll let me live somewhere with my pay. "

mumbling Catherine.

"Ah, speaking of salary…."

Catherine wasn't sure how to talk about salary with Marco. But she had to pay Amanda's semester tuition because Marcell refused to say so. She really hates doing marriage counseling with Marcell, knowing she can do some things to do that.

Therefore, he needed his salary to be paid.

"I need to talk to him about that too…."

**

Catherine busied herself by cleaning the bed and washing the rest of the dirty laundry. After the cleaning was over, he prepared the ingredients to cook dinner.

He doesn't know what Marco likes, but he remembers when Marco was a teenager, he used to cook in Sebastian's family kitchen for Marcell. Little Marco will ask for some things he likes, such as corn soup, pasta, and many things that cannot be cooked because of their nutritionist.

After Catherine cooked everything, she checked her time, and it was time she picked Amanda up from her school.

He finished everything and put his cooking in the fridge, so he could heat it up again tomorrow.

Catherine goes out to pick up Amanda, and when she arrives in front of the school, she sees the princess with red and swollen eyes. Her hair was messy, and she also had scratches on her arms.

"Amanda!" Catherine opened the car door and rushed to her daughter. Amanda turned her head towards her mother, and she bit her lip but said nothing as Catherine hugged her.

"Oh my God, what happened ?!"

"It's okay, Ma."

"Amanda, you have to tell me! Did someone hurt you? I'll talk to your homeroom teacher—"

"Mommy. Amanda wants to go home. Let's go…."

…Catherine picked her up and took her daughter to the car. He put it on the chair and tied the seat belt before leaving.

They were silent for a while until Catherine couldn't take it anymore, "What happened, Amanda? You have to tell Mommy."

Amanda lowered her head and played her fingers, "Mom, is that true?"

"What truth?"

"The father slept with Jaden's mother and Mia's mother as well." Amanda said.

…

"Did Jaden say something again today? Did he hit you?"

"No, Mommy. Mia came to me and said that Daddy was the reason why Daddy and Mommy split up" Amanda replied.

"Dad slept with his mother, and now Mia's father left her."

…

Catherine clenched her hands at the wheel. The bastard never learned. No matter how often Catherine told her not to mess with others, it could affect Amanda. But he didn't even care about his daughter's well-being.

"And Mia fought with you?"

"Mmn.." Amanda nodded. "Mia pushed me, so I pushed her back, then we had a fight…."

"Miss Alisha didn't do anything to separate the two of you?" Catherine calls the homeroom teacher.

"Indeed, but it's too late, Mom…." Amanda leaned her back on the chair and asked again, "Mom, why are you sleeping so hard* with Mia and Jaden's mom?"

Catherine bit her lower lip, trying to hold back her anger because she was 100% sure she wouldn't cover up that bastard Marcell for what she did, not even in front of their daughter.

But he had to be careful with his words. Telling everything unfiltered will only shock a child's mind.

"Mom and Dad had a hard time together. That's why we have to move for a while," Catherine said as she tried to be as gentle as possible.

Amanda was silent for a while and kept asking, "Are you going to let us go home someday?"

"It depends on Daddy. If he wants us to go home, he should stop sleeping so hard*jang with Mommy Jaden and Mia."

"But Daddy once told Amanda that he loved Mommy the most…."

Catherine's getting pissed with Marcell and all his bullshit. But he had to stay calm in front of his daughter.

"Well, I hope he means it" said Catherine.

"Well, don't worry about your dad, baby. I'll treat your wounds once we get home, okay?"

"I don't want to go to that creepy place anymore" Amanda said. He frowned and was about to go on a rampage again.

"Who said we're going there? We have a new house now!"

"Well!?"

Amanda looked excited. This was probably the most interesting thing he had heard since a few days ago. He turned to Mommy and asked, "Is this bigger?"

"Oh, much bigger! So you can run around freely!"

"With my own room?"

"Yes! The room is big, like in our old house!"

"And the kitchen and snacks ?!"

"Yes! Many snacks! We can buy it later!"

"WEEEEE!" Amanda soon forgot her misery. He became so excited that he almost jumped out of his chair.

"Mom, I want to eat your cooking again! I don't want to eat sandwiches and burgers every day!"

"Okay, okay, Mommy cooked you dinner. Let's go to our new house, okay?"

"okay!"

**

They arrive at their new apartment, and only two words come out of Amanda's mouth.

'Wuh!' and 'Wow!'

He was so happy with everything that he hopped around happily around the large apartment. Catherine had to chase him around the apartment because his scratch wound had not been treated.

It was not until nine o'clock that she fell asleep, and Catherine went to Marco's room to wait for the young CEO.

He reheats the cold dinner and prepares it for Marco.

Catherine kept looking at her phone to check the time, and the front door of the penthouse finally opened around two in the morning.

Catherine got up from her seat to greet Marco, "Marco, do you want me to warm up dinner—"

Catherine immediately stopped her steps because she saw Marco coming home drunk with a woman in his arms.

The woman who supported him was not just a nobody. She is the hottest new star starring the latest box office movie, Elise Rodriguez.

"Ah, are you the new servant?" ask Elise.

…

Catherine said nothing. He's still processing what's been going on. Because this event is exactly what used to happen at home.

Seeing a drunken man similar to Marcell was being sustained by a beautiful woman. It opened up the memories he had been trying to bury for so long.

When Marcell started cheating, she was only 28, and Catherine was seven months pregnant.

He was devastated to think he would undergo evolution due to the shock.

'Why does my life always revolve around that bastard….'

"Hey, HEY!"

"Gee-""

Catherine flinched from a daze when she saw Elise's annoyed face.

"Come and help me! He's so heavy, shit!"

"Y—Ya!"

Catherine helps Elise by taking Marco's other arm. They took her to her bedroom, which Catherine cleaned in the afternoon. Catherine gently put Marco on the bed. Marco was already drunk, so he felt nothing and just muttered about things that were unclear.

"I'll prepare a towel for him—"

"Ah, no need. I'll help her through the night" said Elise. She unbuttoned her shirt in front of Catherine and took off her shirt, revealing her beautiful slim body and cute pink br*a covering her well-shaped chest.
