I'm Your Wife Chapter 19 Sasha's POV Roger was so distracted by whatever was playing on the screen , he didn't even notice that I had returned . Dixon didn't notice me either . I was just about to ask what they were looking at when Dixon spoke . " See what I mean , Roger , she's changed a lot . I don't know how she hid it , or why she hid did , but she's not the same woman she used to be . She's much more confident now . She even raised her voice to me when I was trying to get her to sign the write - up . She said she needed to be paid for the overtime she had worked since starting here . It was like we owed her the money or something . But nobody asked her to put in all those hours getting the company off the ground . She's gotten too bold . I tried to get her in line , but she quit and walked out . She's serious about quitting . I still can't reach her . I just wanted you to see how much she's changed . She's not going to be easy to deal with , " Dixon advised me . " Who's changed ? " I asked brightly , like I didn't already know who they were talking about . I already knew , but I wanted to see if Roger was going to tell me the truth . He immediately cleared out the video and handed Dixon his phone back . I really didn't want to be dealing with this right now . Roger has been completely agreeable to everything I've asked for over the past few months . He even let me move into the villa with him without telling Elizabeth . I didn't find out that the villa belonged to her until the plane ride back from Paris , which pissed me off . He let me assume that it was his . He made it seem as if everything belonged to him , which was why I married him . I needed financial security for me and my baby . The baby's father had kicked me out when he found out I was pregnant . Running into Roger in Paris had been a happy coincidence . After he had had a few drinks at dinner , he confessed to me again . I already knew he liked me in high school , but his family had less money than mine did . My goal had always been to increase my value , not decrease it , and I rejected him . I was brutally truthful about it , so he would understand . I never expected to light a fire in him . He told me that he wanted to be a success , just to be able to marry me . I I thought I had everything I ever wanted within my grasp , until he revealed that his leading designer was the key to his success . That he was going to marry her , as it was her only requirement for all her help . I was furious . He was perfect up until this moment . Now , all of a sudden , someone was trying to keep us apart . I wasted no time . I helped the intoxicated man to his room and out of his clothes . I made sure we had s * x several times that night . I needed him to believe that he had gotten me pregnant . I was already over a month pregnant before he even arrived here . I've been very focused on my diet and watching what I eat . I couldn't lose him by gaining weight too fast in my pregnancy . I was four months pregnant , but I barely had a baby bump . The doctor we went to see had warned me that I needed to ensure the baby was getting the proper nutrients . But I assured her I was , and that morning sickness was just making it hard for me to keep anything down . Both she and Roger had bought it . I was just going to tell him the baby had come early . I just hoped the baby favored me , or else Roger would ask why we had a baby with dark brown hair and green 1/4 I'm Your Wife : eyes , because that would be much harder to explain . Roger didn't answer me about who he was talking about . He looked me right in my face and dismissed my question . Telling me , " We were talking about an employee ." I could barely keep from calling him on his lie , but I guess she was an employee . I found comfort knowing that his mother and sister were my biggest supporters . They welcomed me and were happy to help me ensure Elizabeth leaves with nothing . It was what she deserved for trying to take my man away from me . I don't care how helpful she had been to Roger or the company . Roger was my husband , and this was our money , not hers . I sat down in Rogers ' lap and wiggled in close to him . " I'm going to need an evening gown for the auction ," I told him . It hurt to watch him close his eyes and sigh . He was acting like I was causing him problems . He was the one who wanted me , not the other way around . It was infuriating to see his reaction , but I stayed quiet because my temper was about to explode . " Sasha , didn't you just spend a fortune in Paris ? Are you seriously telling me that you don't have an evening gown among all your new clothes ? " He finally asked . " I bought clothes to wear to work , Roger , I'm your wife . I need to represent not just the company , but you as well . You've always complained about how Elizabeth looked . You said that she was frumpy and never looked good enough to represent Cook Custom Jewelry . Who else needs to look good here , if not me ? Your mother was the one who told me to do it . That I would be the new face of the company , and insisted that I needed to represent it well , " I sobbed , calling up tears as I kept my face lowered . I was pissed , but I knew how to play this game well . I've done it since I was a child . I knew exactly what I was doing . When I heard him sigh again , I knew I'd won . " I will take you to the mall tonight , but you need to keep it under a thousand dollars , Sasha ," Roger replied . At my huff , he explained , " You are our new Director of Design , not my wife . Once everything is in my name , you can buy the things you want , but not right now . Don't forget our deal , Sasha . Elizabeth will dig in , and we could lose investors if news of my marriage to you gets leaked . I love you , but we need to keep our relationship under wraps for now ," Roger replied . " As long as it isn't because you're embarrassed of me ," I said , as I snuggled into his chest . He was easy to control . A few tears , and he always caved , Right now , we're in the honeymoon era of our relationship . He will become harder to control after a year , so l need to get as much out of this marriage as possible . Jerrod , my ex , had already told me that he had grown tired of me . He implied Roger would too , but I'm not going to let that happen . He married me , and I will never let him go . Til death do us part , or he ends up broke . Nothing else matters . I didn't care if he cheated , as this wasn't a love connection . " We can go to the mall on our way home , " Roger sald , and I quickly got up and headed for the door . Once his office was locked , he headed towards the door behind his secretary's desk . " I need to get the delivery that came yesterday , " he told me at my questioning look . He found the key and opened the door . I had been expecting a small to medium box . We were all stunned to see her closet almost full of boxes . 16 MNN I'm Your Wife I broke out of my shock first . I noticed that the boxes were marked as follows : master bedroom - women's clothing , master bedroom - men's clothing , several labeled as shoes , and two marked as bathroom items . I started to realize what they might be as I stepped forward to get a closer look . I went back to grab the scissors on the secretary's desk and cut open the tape on one of the women's clothing boxes . Seeing my clothes inside , my heart dropped . " Roger , these are my clothes . What in the hell is going on ? " I asked in a panic . I had a really bad feeling about this . Roger put the legal envelope he was taking home on the desk and grabbed the scissors from my hand . He opened one of the men's clothing boxes , and I watched him pale as he realized that his clothes were inside the box . He pulled out his phone and tried to call Elizabeth several times . She never answered his calls . He started texting , but I knew it was a waste of time . He had been texting her for days , with no reply . I think that she suspects something , but I haven't told her anything , I was glad that she knew she had been replaced . But I was also terrified that she had just kicked us out of our home . " I didn't know the delivery was this big , Roger . I had just left to go home . When she said a big delivery had arrived . I thought it was just a few boxes . If I had known Elizabeth had done this , I would have mentioned the delivery earlier ," Dixon stated . He was just as stunned as we were about this . " Where are we supposed to go now ? I need to get my laundry done . I was looking forward to getting a good night's rest before the auction tomorrow . Why would Elizabeth do this to us ? She doesn't even know what we've done yet . There was no reason to kick us out of our home , " I cried out . Roger looked upset . I knew he didn't have an answer for me . " Let's go by the house and try to talk to Elizabeth . She loves me . She'll understand , " he said . But this time around , it seemed like even he didn't believe what he was saying . " We can go to a hotel , but we need to find a place quickly , Roger , " I pressed . He needed to snap out of it and man up . We had two options : his family's home or a hotel . This wasn't rocket science . He was acting like his world was over . It's just a f ***** g house . Get over it . s over . " Stop pushing me , Sasha . I'm trying to think , " he snapped at me . " Elizabeth has never acted like this before . She's more than angry . I've never seen her like this . Could it be she knows what I'm trying to do ? " " I'm trying to help , Roger . You approached me , not the other way around . You're acting like your life is but isn't this what you wanted ? A life and a business free of Elizabeth's presence . You already have me ; you don't need her . I'm invested in this company too , even though I've just joined . I'm your wife . If you fail , I fail , No one cares more about your success than I do . So what if she's angry ? What can she do to you ? You're the boss here ," I reminded him . I should have known by his sudden anxiety that he had lied to me about that , too . It's too late for doubts now . Whether she knows or not , no longer matters . I'm Roger's wife , and I refuse to let him go . What can she possible do about it anyway ? She's nothing compared to me . Let her do her worst . I'll be happy to show her the error of her ways .
