My Stilettos - Ch. 3

From the last chapter

Alma was determined to do anything to meet again Max Racket, but she never expected him to search her.She found a note at work, on her desk and she went on a date with him.Soon, she had his heart.And his money.He was so in love with her that he divorced from his wife and married Alma as soon as possible.After the wedding party, she moved with him, in the manor.

Their first night together wasn't exactly ... as he expected.All their family waited for them at his house and they weren't too happy to meet their new mother.And grandmother!Alma met for the first time her grandchildren, Shark and Lolly, who were a couple of years older than her.But she chose to ignore this aspect and gathered all the family in the living room, because she had some important news.

She was still wearing her wedding dress when she informed all the family that she want's everybody to move out of the house as soon as possible.They all watched her stupefied, but, because she was the new lady in the house, they had to do as she said.After the announcement, she left the living room, pretending that she was tired from the party and she had to rest.She called a maid, who hellped her to take the dress off, she locked the door from her bedroom and she went to sleep, smilling because she was finally seeing her dream comming true.

That night, no one from the manor (except, of course, Alma) couldn't sleep.The grandchildren, Shark and Lolly were packing, because they were to first who were moving, planning to leave in the morning.In fact, they were happy and relieved, because they didn't want to remain in the house to see what will happen.Marigot, Max's ex-wife was yelling, telling everyone that Alma was a hypocrite, who will destroy everything that their family managed to create up until now.Max's sons and his daughter in law, Silver, weren't happy about this event, but they decided to leave the house tomorrow, in the afternoon.   

Max was watching them and he wasn't able so say anything.He knew nothing about Alma's decision until this evening, but he could not say something against his wife.

So he left the living room and went into his bedroom, a little disapointed because he couldn't sleep with his wife.

Next morning (it wasn't exactly morning, it was more like 01:30 PM), when she woke up, the house was quiet.So, Alma understood that everyone left and went to take a shower in her bathroom.

She met her husband when she went to eat something, and, suddenly, she saw him as he was: an unhappy, old man.She was disgusted by him!

He, on the other side, smilled when he saw his beautiful wife, refreshed and dressed in a short blue dress.But she didn't even greet him.

In the afternoon, Alma decided to redecorate her bedroom (now, when everyone from the house left, she chose the master-bedroom, from the seccond floor) and started to spend her new fortune on beautiful yet expensive things.Her husband couldn't help but watch her, pretending to be happy because his wife was.

The next days, she went to the SPA and spent her time there, enjoying every moment, while Max was home, feeling more than lonely in the huge, empty house.

When her husband returned to work and had to leave for a business trip a couple of days she accepted a friend's invitation to a formal party, at a hotel from the town.There, she flirted with every rich men she met, and soon she started dating an old man from the neighborhood.His name was Harwood Clay and he was an artist.A rich one.He fell in love with her and frequently called her his muse.She was flattered and attracted by his words.And by his money.

But, soon, she got borred and, againd, she started to date her boss.

Her husband returned from his trip a week later, late in the night, but noted with sadness that his wife wasn't home.She was probably at another party.

He wasn't wrong.That night, Alma went to a party, but she wasn't there anymore when Max returned home.In fact, she was at a ... family reunion, where she was trying to ... understand her grandson better.

At the party she started talking to a young, handsome man, whom she later recognized as Max's grandson, Shark Racket.And, because of the champagne glasses that they both drank the next hours, Shark became more and more attracted by her beautiful, turquoise eyes, while Alma became fascinated by his charm.

When the party ended, he went with her at the manor.Alma knew that her husband was probably home, but she was sure that he was already asleep, so she and her young lover went to her bedroom.

For the first time since she arrived in the town, Alma felt attracted by the man who was making love to her.Or, maybe, it was just the alcohool's efect.But she loved that night!
