Mistress on My Husband's Phone Novel by Rina Novita

We arrived at a prestigious five–star hotel in the city. Albert’s Toyota Alphard drove straight to the hotel lobby, where a hotel staff member opened the door for us.

As we entered the lobby, several event organizers greeted us. I walked alongside Albert, who as usual, smiled at everyone. Many women squealed in delight at his appearance tonight.

Walking beside him in a matching–colored gown, I could only sigh at the scene.

We walked on the red carpet, followed by several board members, and entered the hotel’s grand ballroom.

As we passed through the line of managers welcoming us on either side, I spotted Derrick among them, with the homewrecker clinging to him. They didn’t seem to recognize me yet.

The music played by a renowned band entertained the guests. An abundance. of food and drinks was neatly arranged around the spacious ballroom. Spotlights illuminated the grand stage from all directions. Bradley had outdone. himself with this event. I watched him busily directing the event staff.

I approached Uncle Benny and his family seated in the VIP section and greeted each of them.

“Uncle Benny, thanks for managing my dad’s company so well all these years.”

“You’re welcome. I’m glad you’ve finally decided to join the company,” Uncle Benny said as I shook his hand.

“But I still have much to learn, Uncle,” I replied.

“Don’t worry. Albert will always be there to guide you. Right, Albert?”

“Of course, Mr. Humprey. I’m always ready for Joy,” Albert answered, winking at me. I glared at him.

“Hahaha!” Uncle Benny laughed at Albert’s antics..

“Good evening, everyone,” the emcee began the event.

Almost all the employees were present. Many guests from other companies and business partners were also in attendance.

“Let’s welcome Mr. Benny Humprey.”

Uncle Benny took the stage to give his speech.

I noticed Derrick watching me from a distance. He seemed to recognize me now. His face looked pale, and the homewrecker beside him appeared equally anxious.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

“And now, it’s time to welcome our new CEO on stage, Ms. Sarah Joy Johnson!”

The audience stood up, clapping loudly. I confidently walked towards the stage, a smile spread across my face.

From a distance, I saw Derrick move to the front row, with his soon–to–be wife by his side. Her eyes were wide open, staring at me unblinkingly. Even after my speech, she continued staring at me, mouth agape.

As I stepped down from the stage, Albert reached up to hold my hand, guiding mme down. The women in the audience shrieked excitedly.

Suddenly, Derrick pushed his way forward, trying to get past the people. blocking his path.

Still holding my hand, Albert led me back to the VIP section.

“Let her go, she’s my wife!” Derrick’s loud shout stunned me. His voice drew everyone’s attention.

Albert turned to me, raising his eyebrows.

I shook my head and shrugged.

“Who is he?” Albert asked an employee standing nearby.

“He’s one of our managers, sir.”

Albert glared at Derrick.

“How dare you! How dare you claim that Ms. Johnson is your wife?” Albert’s voice thundered.

Realizing that Albert was an important person in the company, Derrick’s face turned pale, and his body trembled. Beads of sweat started forming on his forehead.

I wanted to laugh out loud at this moment.

“But she…she is…my wife,” Derrick atammered, pointing a finger at me.

Wow, Derrick was bold.

“Hey, are you nuts?” Albert yelled again.

“Mr. Dane, isn’t your fiancée the one standing behind you?” a security guard interjected, pointing to the woman suddenly standing behind Derrick, Kendall looked flustered as she became the center of attention.

“L–let’s go, Derrick,” Kendall whispered, pulling Derrick’s hand and leading him away,

The crowd started laughing and mocking them.

From a distance, I saw Kendall fuming. She seemed upset with Derrick’s behavior, claiming I was his wife.

“The game has just begun, Derrick.”
