The Billionaire's Contracted Wife [English]

" Yes, mother! I am fine! A little tired due to a lot of work, but I’m having fun. "Ashley said, but in her voice, it shows that she was happy.

" Don’t work yourself to death, alright! Anyway, your brother Arman said that you should tell your boss, thank you very much! Did you know he gave your Kuya Arman a job at his hotel! Hahaha! "Fely sounded very happy while talking to Ashley.

Ashley couldn’t believe what she was hearing. ’Tan gave my brother a job at his hotel? Where? Which hotel? Hmmm, I need to ask him later." She thought as she listened to her mother tell her the story of what had happened to them when she left.

Ashley was unable to talk to her father and other brothers since they were not home yet. So after an hour of talking with her mother, she still ended up not talking about their relationship.

After Ashley finished speaking with her mother, she quickly went to Tanaga’s office to ask about the job he had given her brother Arman.

"Knock-knock! Tan, can I come in?" Ashley asked as she hesitated while waiting for him to answer.

"Enter!" Tanaga replied without looking up, for he was busy reading the document in front of him.

Ashley slowly opened the door and peered in first, before finally entering. She went straight to Tanaga’s back before she started to massage his shoulder.

At first, Tanaga continued reading the document while Ashley was massaging his shoulder. But after a while, he dropped the papers he was reading and leaned his head against the chair.

There was no need for Ashley to be told what to do next. She stopped massaging the shoulder and started working on her husband’s head ... Because of Ashley’s massage, it didn’t take long, and he was already sound asleep and breathing heavily.

When Ashley heard that Tanaga was snoring already, she suddenly felt bad for him. ’ Wow! He must be so tired to be knocked out just like that. Sadly, he has a lot of responsibility. If I could only help to ease it a little, I would.’ Ashley thought as she stared at the angelic face of her husband.

Ashley kissed Tanaga’s forehead before leaving quickly to go to their room to pick up a blanket. She did not know that Tanaga was a light sleeper and felt her kiss him on the forehead. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

He opened his eyes as she was leaving and continued looking as she walks out the door with a sweet smile on his face. Once she was out of sight, he closed his eyes again and waited for Ashley to come back ...

The couple has no idea that butler Ruffy was recording all their moves, and he saw Ashley exited Tanaga’s office. He then quickly face time grandmother Hanada to inform her of what’s going on.

When Ashley returns from their bedroom with a blanket, she was surprised when she entered the office. Her husband was not in the chair where she had left him.

When she turned around to look for his whereabouts, all of a sudden, he came right behind her and lifted her while laughing out loud. "Hahaha! Hahaha!"

"You’re late! Hmmm, and you even brought a blanket with you. Thank you, dear, but I rather like sleeping next to you. " Tanaga whispered as he made his way back to their room, carrying her like a princess...

When Grandma Hanada saw what was happening, she couldn’t stop herself and began clapping her hand from happiness, then shouted... "Fighting!" Fortunately, Ruffy’s fingers were fast, and he was quick to turn off the facetime right away... Otherwise, the couple would know that they were spying on them ...

A whole week passed with no interference in the couple’s life. Each day they would get up and go to work, and when they’re in the office... She’s the assistant and his boss. No one ever knows that once they walked out of the office, Tanaga would pamper his wife to the fullest.

Grandma Hanada and Ruffy were overjoyed seeing how happy the couple. The two began counting chickens already before the hen even laid any eggs.

"So? Is she showing any sign yet? How about morning sickness? Nothing? It has been over a month already, and they should already be pregnant by now. Go and see what you can find out from the maid that cleans their room." Grandmother Hanada asked while they are on facetime.

"Madam, don’t worry... You will be the first one to know when that happens. I assure you, nothing yet!" Ruffy answered sternly. The truth of the matter, he’s already agitated and wanted Ashley to get pregnant to be secured.

"Madam, I’m going to go ahead! The couple is on the way home from work, and I need to have their dinner ready. I will inform you right away when there is a sign!" Ruffy promised to grandmother Hanada before hanging up.

"Alright! As soon as you find out, call me right away!" The older lady said as she hung up the phone.

To be sure, Ruffy began observing Ashley’s actions. However, every morning she would get out of their room full of energy. Every time she eats, nothing goes wrong, and she’s okay with whatever’s on the table. She never once showed any sign of pregnancy.

This is killing butler Ruffy, and he couldn’t think of any other way to make sure that they conceive. Every night they go to bed early, and he knows they are doing the mambo... ’How come they are not pregnant yet?’ Butler Ruffy thought.

"Inday !!!! Come over here!" He called the housekeeper that had been assisting and cleaning Ashley and Tanaga’s room.

Inday quickly approached, "Sir, you call me!"

"In the past few days, when you were cleaning Sir and Ma’am’s room, did you find anything strange?"

"Strange? Like what?" Inday asked, not understanding what butler Ruffy meant.

Butler Ruffy had to think of what was considered different for him to find out if Ashley is pregnant?

"When you take out the bathroom trash, do you see any test kit thrown in the garbage bin? If not, how about sanitary napkins? Have you seen her dumped any? Had she ever used it since they returned from the Philippines?" Ruffy bombarded Inday with questions while his eyes are wide with excitement.

"Think about it carefully before you reply. This is a crucial matter and if you give me the wrong information and I found out... I’ll send you back to the Philippines in no time!" Butler Ruffy threatened.

Inday didn’t know what to say because... She’s was afraid she might be saying something wrong. She began thinking carefully over the last few days since Ashley arrived at the mansion...

When Inday still didn’t respond within minutes ... Ruffy couldn’t stand it anymore and, "Tell me!!!!"

"Butler Ruffy! Will you, please, stop screaming so much, how am I supposed to be able to think when you keep on shouting in my ears. I can’t even think of the right answer?" Inday replied, but it made Ruffy much more furious.

"Boing!" butler Ruffy smacked her on the head lightly. "You little shit head, stop fooling around! Why are you still wondering what the right answer is? My question is simple! Did you see any sanitary napkins when you were cleaning their bathroom? What do you need to think about that?" Ruffy scolded Inday.
