The last few weeks had been weird.

Our schedules didn't mix together at all giving us less time to see each other. We both barely had time for each other mornings due to us getting ready in the morning.

I got home a little earlier then he did and I was usually asleep by the time he got home. He usually had to stay behind on some work or handle some family business.

While he was in the shower I noticed that his phone kept a going off as I slid into my shoes.

"Babe!" I shouted as the water turned off.

"What?"His voice echoed off the bathroom walls."You're phones going off." I tell him as I pick it up.

I unlock it and click on the messages without seeing who it was.

Thx for dinner the other night.

He told me that he was too busy at work to go out for dinner. Who the fuck did he have dinner with the other night then?

Everything is all set for tonight...it's the presidential suite as requested

What the fuck???

My heart dropped as I heard his footsteps behind me. "Who was it?" He asked as he dried his hair with his towel. "Just some advertisement." I give him a tight lipped smile as he nods.

"I'm going to be late, see you later." I say giving him a kiss on the cheek. "Actually i'm working late tonight."

Did he just— he just fucking lied to me

"As always." I mumble as I brush past him.

"Ash," he catches my forearm before I can leave.
"I promise you that we'll have time together soon, just trust me. I know our schedules are crazy right now but I'll make something work."

I nodded my head at him and took a deep breath. Maybe i'm just overreacting right now, that could've been anyone texting his phone.

"Ok." I nodded as he smiles down at me with that annoyingly perfect smile of his. I let out a groan as he places small kisses all over my face. He pulled back and frowned when he noticed my lack of smile.

"Smile for me, butters." He placed his lips on mine as a smile began to form. " I love you."

"I love you too." I mumbled as I pulled away and wiped the excess lip gloss off of his lips.

With that I walked out of our room and towards my car. The whole drive to work I was distracted wondering what if...

Alessandro would not have let me open his phone if he was cheating or talking to someone else...

Right ?

I barely had my head on straight during the meeting this morning. My day went by slow as my mind clogged with worry that he was stepping outside of our relationship.
