Love Hate Relationship

Chapter fifteen

A young man ended his call and left his office, he walked to the door of another office and knocked before entering "boss, there is news, she left the house five minutes ago" Gary reported.

Michael looked up from the document he was working on "where to?" He asked.

"I can't tell yet, Fish is still on her tail, said he will call once she settles."

"Good, he should continue then. Report to me when you know where she went to."

"Yes boss" Gary replied and left the office.

Michael stared at the close door and the corner of his lips lift up in a faint smile "where are you going now love?" He whispered.

Sasha pulled over at the parking lot of her favourite diner, she got out of the car and walked into the restaurant. The black car parked a few blocks away and made another phone call.

Sasha made her self comfortable in her favourite booth, she picked up the menu and ordered for something crispy and a juice. The juice arrived first and she opened it and poured in a glass, she sipped from it and savoured the taste in her tongue before swallowing, the first sweet thing she had tasted after last night, she thought and it made her love the juice more.

Her food arrived minutes later and she enjoyed every minute of it. She rested for more minutes before deciding it's time to go shopping. She paid her bills and left the restaurant, she got to her car, got in and drove off. The driver of the black car made another phone call before following her.

Sasha stopped in front of the first cloth shop she saw, she parked the car and got out, look around her, she don't know why she kept having the feeling that she is been followed but there is absolutely no one looking her way, she sighed and walked into the shop. The black car parked just opposite the shop and was about to make another phone call when he saw a car parked right beside Sasha's car, the driver of the car got down and opened the backdoor, a beautiful lady stepped down, she looked around her before walking into the shop too.

The driver of the black hastily made his phone call while he kept staring at the shop, wishing he could see what was going on in there. Gary rushed out of his office and knocked at the door of another office before walking in "news sir."

"Go on" Michael said.

"Mistress already left the restaurant but she didn't go home."

Michael looked at him then with a slight frown "where did she go to then?"

"She went to Diva's Beauty" Gary replied.

Michael looked at him as his mind processed his words, why will she go to Diva's Beauty? He thought and then remembered she had removed all the clothes his mother bought for her, his lips curled up in a smile, why, she is trying to prove her self to him, he thought. He knew he should be angered by her attitude but he is actually enjoying it, he always love a lady that can take care of herself, but why did she choose his shop? "Okay then, have Fish wait for her till she finish shopping."

"Yes boss but there is only one slight problem."

"What is that?" Michael asked.

"Fish reported that not long after mistress walked in, Miss Hertz walked in."

Michael frowned "Kira Hertz?"

"Yes boss."

"Damn" Michael groaned, he got up and picked his car key and threw it to Gary "guess we are going shopping then" he added and picked up his phone before walking out of the office, followed by Gary.

Sasha walked around, looking at different dresses, the shop attendant followed behind her with a sweet smile, introducing any new dress they pass. Sasha couldn't get herself to choose anything yet, all the clothe that the attendant showed her are all top notch, if she should buy one of them then she won't have much left for other clothes but she don't know how to walk away or tell the attendant that the clothes are all to expensive for her, just why did she choose this shop?

"If my eyes are not deceiving me, I would have said that this looks like Michael's new bride but how can it be possible, Michael won't let his wife go shopping wearing nothing but that" Sasha heard a lady say and turned to see a beautiful woman dress in a gown which was on par with all the ones she had been seeing here.

"Hello miss Kira, I didn't know you will be coming today" the shop attendant quickly walked to her, abandoning Sasha without blinking an eye, of course she will choose miss Kira who she knows very well and will always live a tip for her over a woman she doesn't even know and have just been walking around without picking a single dress.

"I didn't know I will be coming, I was just passing by when I saw this lady, I thought she was your boss's wife" Kira looked at Sasha lowly "but I see now that I'm wrong."

Sasha tried to ignore her but her words made her stop "wait, what do you say? Michael owns this place?" She asked shocked.

"Well looks like I'm not wrong, and not just that, you don't even know your husband's properties" Kira snorted.

Sasha rolled her eyes, how is she to know his properties when she hasn't even gotten a hug from him. She turned to walk away but was stopped by Kira again.

"When I saw you two at the alter, I already know that it was just an arranged marriage and he feels nothing for you. I can know better because I went to the same school with Michael but not once have I seen him with a girl" she was looking Sasha up and down now "but what I still don't seem to understand is why he rejected marrying me but married you."

"Obviously is because he saw something better in me than you" Sasha replied, there is no way she is going to allow her insult her, Michael might insult her and she will do nothing, but that doesn't mean she will take that from anybody else.

Kira felt insulted by her words and sneered "yea I can see that" she looked at her dressing and chuckled "obviously he married you just in name. The Michael I know will never let his wife dress so poorly, he is a sicker for quality and fashion and only purchases rare clothes, you will hardly see a cloth he is putting on anywhere else and I'm sure and not just me but everybody else knows that his wife is going to be wearing a rare piece but look at you" she chuckled "I don't think its happening like that."

Sasha sighed, just where did this woman come from? Did she come here to shop or just to insult her? "I have the right to choose what I want to wear and my darling husband is understanding because he knows that I don't need to dress in a gown worth millions before my beauty will be seen. He knows that I look good in whatever I wear unlike some who depends on dresses and makeup to look good" she smiled.

Kira grinded her teeth, she looked at the face of the woman challenging her and can't help but admit that she is right, even without the makeup and fancy dress, she still looked stunning unlike her that must put on a makeup to conceal the ugly scare on her cheek, noticing this, she can't help but hate the lady more.

Sasha smirked and turned to continue her shopping, out of anger because of the woman, she picked any dress her hand touched and walked to the counter, she offered her credit card and waited for the beautiful girl to pack her dress for her, she knows she will spend more than she expected and couldn't help but blame Michael, its all his fault, if he hadn't insulted her last night of being poor, she wouldn't have come to shop and if it wasn't for his high taste in clothes, she wouldn't have been insulted for her simple dressing.

If it wasn't for him being too handsome that the lady Kira has a crush on him, she wouldn't have had to face the woman let to talk of exchanging words with her, so it's all his fault, it's always his fault. She was called out of her blaming by the girl at the counter "excuse me, what?" She asked since she didn't hear what she said.

"I said I'm sorry but you don't have sufficient balance to pay for the clothes" the girl replied with a smile.

What? Not enough balance? She collected her card from the girl and looked at it only to discover it was just her little saving account that owns it, of course, she had came in with this card because she didn't want to spend much "please hold on, let me get my other card in my car" she smiled.

"Of course ma'am, take your time" the girl replied and just then Sasha heard a mocking laughter, she don't know why but it pierced her heart just like how Michael's own had did last night.

"Well wellwell, looks like you don't have enough money" Kira sneered "ouch, it must hurt, I mean, you are married to one of the richest man in Los Angeles but you can't even pay for a few dresses. That's too bad" she pouted.
